revolved slowly through the ratchet R. The slotted arms pick up the 

 parts suspended in the slot by the sleeve and deliver them into the 

 chute A, Figs. 1 and 2. An intermittently revolving turret B, Fig. 2, 



Fig. 1 



having four notches or chucks, receives the parts from the chute and 

 carries them under the plunger D, attached to the slide Di, which 

 carries the 50 pound weight D3. The slide with the weight is raised 

 and lowered at the proper time by the cam E acting on the roller D2 

 attached to the slide. 



After the turret has carried the part to the testing position and 

 stopped, the plunger D enters the tube, gradually applying the load 

 (furnished by the weight D3) to the soldered joints X and Y, Fig. 2.
