Claim 10:
11. A film feeding apparatus comprising:
a turntable including a driving member and a rotation bar having a central part shaft-coupled to a rotating shaft of the driving member to be driven to rotate around the rotating shaft and driven to rotate to repeatedly perform an operation in which the rotation bar rotates by a predetermined reference angle through the driving member and is then stopped for a predetermined reference time;
a film tray disposed in a predetermined first operation region to position one end of opposite ends of the rotation bar on the film tray in a state in which the rotation bar is stopped for the reference time and on which a plurality of films are located in multiple layers;
gripping units coupled to the opposite ends of the rotation bar, respectively, to transfer the films along a predetermined circular trajectory around the rotating shaft by the rotation bar and configured to grip the films; and
a film ejection unit disposed in a predetermined second operation region to position another end opposite to the one end of the opposite ends of the rotation bar in the film ejection unit in the state in which the rotation bar is stopped for the reference time and configured to eject the films to an outside,
wherein, in the state in which the rotation bar is stopped for the reference time, a griping unit positioned in the first operation region among the gripping units grips a film from the film tray, and a gripping unit positioned in the second operation region among the gripping units releases a film that is pre-gripped from the film tray and transfers the film to the film ejection unit,
wherein the turntable further includes a pair of coupling bars coupled to the opposite ends of the rotation bar, respectively, and each of the gripping units is coupled to one of the pair of coupling bars,
wherein each of the coupling bars is coupled to one end of the rotation bar to be symmetrical with respect to the one end of the rotation bar, to which a corresponding coupling bar is coupled,
wherein each of the gripping units is coupled to one end among opposite ends of the respective coupling bar to which a corresponding gripping unit is coupled, and
wherein a pair of film trays is disposed in the first operation region to make any one of the pair of film trays face one end of the respective coupling bar and to make another film tray face another end of the respective coupling bar, opposite to the one end.
