ABSTRACT

A feeding apparatus includes a vibrating device having a plurality of
vibrating regions spaced apart in a circumferential direction and a plurality
of feeders disposed at a feeding station and respectively accommodating a
plurality of different types of components. The plurality of vibrating regions
of the vibrating device are rotatable about an axis in sequence to the feeding
station. When one vibrating region of the plurality of vibrating regions is
rotated to the feeding station, a component in one feeder corresponding to the
one vibrating region is supplied into the one vibrating region. The vibrating
device adjusts the component located in the one vibrating region by vibration
to a predetermined posture suitable for being captured by a robot.
