As themain shaft 6 is rotated by the hand crank, all the rubber tired wheels are rotated as well as wheel 16 and cam 8. The rubber tired wheels 38 and 39 are mounted on shaft 6 and the rubber tired wheels 40 and 41 are mounted on another shaft immediately above in such a position that a card forced out of container 1 comes ing the balls is on top. After all the balls have been carried out of hopper 13, the position of the hoppers can be reversed by turning the hoppers half way around, which brings hopper 14, containing all the balls, on top. Having passed under the arm 17, the ball falls into the lower hopper 14 through an opening in the bottom of casln '15. It should also be noted that the diameter of the balls is so arranged thatthe largest ball is less than twice the diameter of the smallest ball and that the indentation in wheel 16 is of a size to admit the largest ball/but not large enough to allow two of-the smallest balls to lie side by side in the bottom of the indentation and so pass out at one revolution of the wheel 16. This lever operates to prevent more than one ball being delivered at each turn of the wheel 16.

As the wheel 16 is rotated, a ball falls into the indentation of the wheel and is forced out through an opening in the chute under arm 17 of lever 18. This casing 15 also has a chute 19 open at the top which corresponds with'a similar opening in the hoppers 13 and 14 and permits the balls to fall out of the upper hopper 13 and rest on the wheel 16. The casing 15 has a slot to admit the arm 17 of lever 18. The halls are contained in the hoppers13 and 14 which are fastened together by a circular casing fitting over the circular casing 15vvghich surrounds the wheel 16. The shaft holding the rubber tired wheels 2 and 3 is rotated by gears 11 and A series of fifty-two balls is provided divided into four sets of different sizes with thirteen of each size. The cam 8 is arranged so it will allow the frame 5 to return and permit the rubber tired wheels to force out one card at each revolution of the shaft 6 unless stopped by the failure of a ball to come out of the hopper, as will be explained later. The frame is pulled downward, bringing the rubber tired wheels out of contact with the cards by the earn 8 forcing down the lever 9 which is attached to arm 10 of frame 5. The rubber tired wheels 2 and 3 rotate on a shaft in the frame 5 which is pivoted on the main shaft 6 and held with the wheels pressing upward by coil spring 7 attached to a prolongationof one side of the frame over the shaft 6.
