A component supply device supplies components stored in a component storage tape to a component extracting position. The component supply device includes a component exposing unit that exposes the components in the component storage tape fed by a tape feeding unit, the component storage tape traveling on a travel path formed from a tape travel path forming unit. The component exposing unit includes an insertion member that is inserted between a cover tape and a carrier tape and includes a base part and a tip part continuous with an upstream end in a tape feeding direction of the base part. The tip part is inclined toward the cover tape away from the carrier tape with respect to the base part in a state where the insertion member is inserted between the cover tape and the carrier tape.
