Abstract: Apparatus for regularly delivering essentially ball-shaped objects from a quantity, provided with a container for a supply of objects, a discharge channel for the objects to be delivered, and a body rotating about a horizontal axis between the container and the channel and above the channel for regulating the passage of the objects through the channel. The channel has a V-shaped cross-section, and the rotating body has two conical end parts of which the tips facing away from each other coincide with the horizontal axis of rotation. These end parts face the channel walls in such a way that between the bottom of the channel and the rotating body a free passage exists for objects in single file.

Abstract: A divider for a guide track for ball-shaped objects such as golf balls, is provided with a feed channel and two discharge channels, the feed channel being placed asymmetrically relative to the two discharge channels, in such a way that each arriving ball-shaped object emerging from the feed channel is movable in the direction of one and the same discharge channel and can be accommodated therein until the discharge channel is filled with foregoing objects, following which any subsequently arriving object can be accommodated in the other discharge channel due to the fact that, through colliding with the objects present in the filled discharge channel, the object is then movable in the direction of the other discharge channel.
