    Abstract: A device for conveying parts by gravity that comprises first and second guides of length L equidistant from one another. Each guide has a U-shaped cross-section. An opening of one of the guides is arranged opposite the opening of the other guide so as to define a path for the parts to be conveyed. A contact surface between the guides and the parts is sufficient to hold the parts between the guides. The guides are made of a material that facilitates sliding of the parts to be conveyed.
