  • Patent number: 3954169
    Abstract: An electromagnetic feeder device operable for creating controlled vibration is provided which is particularly suited to be employed in association with automatic machinery for purposes of moving disoriented parts into orientation, for inspecting and/or counting and/or applying parts, etc. Moreover, the electromagnetic feeder device is characterized by the fact that means are embodied therein which permit both the frequency of vibration to be tuned and the armature gap setting to be adjusted while the device is operating. The electromagnetic feeder device has embodied therein an electromagnet coil. The latter coil is supported on a coil mounting plate suitably provided for this purpose. In turn, the coil mounting plate is supported on a base angle plate which itself is supported on a base angle whereby the vibrating firing angle of the electromagnetic feeder device may be adjusted, i.e., the device may be made to vibrate left or right.
