Abstract
A linear vibratory parts feeder is formed from modular components detachably mounted to one another. A counterweight is detachably mounted to a reversible mounting plate and a plurality of lower spring anchors are detachably mounted to the counterweight. A corresponding plurality of upper spring anchors are detachably mounted to a linear parts transport track, and a drive springs are detachably mounted to corresponding pairs of upper and lower spring anchors. The counterweight may be detachably mounted to either one of opposite mounting surfaces of the mounting plate, which is configured to permit complete access to all feeder components and further to permit placement of upstream and downstream feeder units in close proximity to the feeder of the present invention. The counterweight and spring anchors are configured to maximize the vibratory drive efficiency of this feeder.
