PURPOSE:To obtain a conveying drum for taking out at high speed and very efficiently electronic parts that are floated and arranged in a magnet stocker. CONSTITUTION:Guide discs 12 of a nonmagnetic material are positioned on opposite sides of a drum body 8 comprising a nonmagnetic disc, are attached coaxially to a rotating shaft 9 supporting the drum body 8, and are rotated together with the drum body 8. Guide grooves 15 each for guiding the large diameter section 14 of a diode, that is, a glass section of the diode are arranged throughout the intermediate section of the outer circumferential surface of the drum body 8. Accommodating grooves 6 that receive the diodes 3 are arranged in the outer circumferential surface of the drum body 8 at certain intervals. A conveying drum 7 that extends into a stock zone 4 is in contact with the lead wire 13 of the diode 3 on the outer circumferential surface of the drum body 8, and at the same time is supported by the guide discs 12 provided on the opposite sides of the drum body 8 so that the stability is favorable.
