    Abstract: An apparatus for conveying assembly parts from a storage bin to a singling and/or orienting station has a conveyor which includes an endless carrier extending from an inlet in the bin to a discharge end whence the conveyed assembly parts are thrown from the carrier. The carrier is driven in an endless path about a reversing point at the discharge end and entrainment elements on the carrier entrain the assembly parts from the inlet to the discharge end in a conveying direction. A support defining a guide track in the conveying direction extends under the carrier and guide elements on a side of the carrier facing the support engage the guide track whereby the guide track and the guide elements constitute a guide for the endless carrier in the conveying direction.
