Abstract:
A joining apparatus magazine temporarily stores a plurality of joining elements loaded from a loading station and feeds the joining elements to a joining head connected to an assembly line robot. The magazine comprises a housing connectable to the joining head; a drive motor; and a rotary body rotatable about an axis by the drive motor. The rotary body includes a plurality of chambers for temporarily storing joining elements. The magazine further comprises a loading arrangement operable for loading joining elements into the chambers; and an unloading arrangement operable for discharging a joining element from the chamber toward the joining head. The loading arrangement and the unloading arrangement are coupled together such that either a chamber can be loaded or a chamber can be unloaded.
