The invention relates to an arrangement ( 20 ) to transport a round blank ring ( 30 ) made from plastic from a receiving location ( 35 ) to an assembly station ( 90 ). A every point in time, the orientation and the position of the round blank ring ( 30 ) are predefined, at least within a tolerance range. To execute a movement from top to bottom in a height direction (H), it is possible to use a feed device ( 34 ) with a motor-driven conveying unit ( 58 ). This conveying unit ( 58 ) moves one or more round blank rings ( 30 ) in a positively guided manner downward in the height direction (H) to a delivery location ( 36 ). At every point in time as this is done, the orientation of the round blank ring relative to the height direction (H) is defined, at least within a predefined tolerance range.

Claim (Index 5):
A feed device according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the conveying unit ( 58 ) engage upon the round blank ring ( 30 ) at least in two locations that are distant from one another in the peripheral direction (U).
