Patent number: 8079456
Abstract: An automated spring detangler takes clumps of springs and whirls them around a rotating
chamber. When they separate and fall to the bottom of the container, they are sucked into a delivery tube that continuously individually
deposits them at an assembly line which may be remote from the detangler. Any non-separating clumps of springs are periodically ejected
from the container.
