Device for conveying parts using gravity

A manufacturing process of a device for conveying parts by gravity that comprises first and second guides of length L equidistant from one another, with each of the first and second guides having a U-shaped cross-section, and an opening of one of the first and second guides being arranged opposite an opening of the other of the first and second guides so as to define a path for parts to be conveyed, a contact surface between the first and second guides and the parts being sufficient to hold the parts between the first and second guides, and the first and second guides being made of an organic polymer that facilitates sliding of the parts to be conveyed, the process comprising the steps of

• producing each of the first and second guides of length L from a flat element;
• fixing a bracket on at least one side of the first and second guides so as to hold the first and second guides equidistant one from the other throughout their length L;
• and
• shaping the first and second guides held equidistantly one from the other by the bracket into a desired position.

A manufacturing process of a device for conveying parts by gravity, the process comprising the steps of:

• producing first and second guides having a length L from a flat element, each of said first and second guides being equidistant from each other and having U-shaped cross-sections, said first guide having an opening which faces an opening of said second guide so as to define a path for parts to be conveyed therebetween, each of said first and second guides being made of an organic polymer that facilitates sliding of the parts to be conveyed;
• fixing a bracket on at least one side of the first and second guides so as to hold the first and second guides equidistant from one another along their length L;
• and
• shaping the first and second guides and the bracket therebetween so as to define a desired conveyance path for said parts.
