Abstract
An adjustable orienter mounts along the output path of a vibratory feeder for axially orienting uniform cylinders having a length-to-diameter ratio of approximately 1. The orienter includes a guide plate having a bottom edge in close proximity to the output path and extending upward with an upper surface inclined away from the inside edge of the output path with distance above the output path. A wiper plate is mounted above the inclined surface of the guide plate, and both the guide plate and wiper plate are adjustable and cooperate with each other to allow the cylinders with their axes aligned with the inside edge to move along the output path between the inside edge and the guide plate with a cylindrical side portion overhanging the inclined surface of the guide plate, while the cylinders having axes transverse to the inside edge are tipped over the inside edge by the guide plate or, if they reach the wiper plate, are knocked over the inside edge by the wiper plate.
