PURPOSE:To provide the work supply unit of a contact pin press-in device, whereby the work of supplying contact-pin groups except that workers spend time only in supplying them to an unloaded stocker can be automated not only to eliminate the need for many hands but also to substantially reduce time for assembling an electric device. CONSTITUTION:A frame 10 is mounted onto a supporting stand 14 for vertical oscillation around a rotationally moving fulcrum, and an oscillating cylinder 15 on the other hand which oscillates the frame 10 is mounted onto the supporting stand 14. A stocker inserter portion 50, whereinto a stocket 33 having many sheets of contact pin groups loaded thereinto is inserted, is formed in the frame 10, and a separator 27 which separates one sheet composing the one contact pin group 1 from the others is mounted onto the frame 10.
