Carrying apparatus

Abstract

To enable the switching of the types of carried articles by an easy operation when the carried articles of different types are carried by a same apparatus and avoid the apparatus from being complicated in structure and increased in size. [MEANS FOR SOLVING PROBLEMS] Lateral arms (12) are connected to the lower end parts of a pair of vertical arms (10) extending downward from both sides of a trolley mobile body (8) through joint arms (11), and support plates (14) receiving the front lower surface of a vehicle body (W) are installed at the front upper part of the lateral arms (12). Sliding rods (13) slidable in the longitudinal directions are fitted to the lateral arms (12), and the support plates (14) receiving the rear lower surface of the vehicle body (W) are installed at the rear upper parts of the sliding rods (13).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a conveying device capable of adapting to various types of conveyors, for example, on an overhead conveyor that conveys automobile bodies. Background technique [0002] Currently, as a device for transporting multiple types of vehicle bodies with the same hanger, there is known a technique in which, for example, a hanger main body that supports the front lower surface of the vehicle body is provided on a movable guide rail provided along the ceiling. A pair of front suspension arms and a pair of rear suspension arms supporting the rear lower part of the vehicle body, by making the rear suspension arms move freely, and engaging the locking rods provided on the rear suspension arms with the hanger main body In the engaging groove of each model, support the appropriate position on each model; install a hanger device on the mobile body that can move freely along a certain path, and set a changing device, the changing device...

Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, in the former Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2002-96778, since it is necessary to move the rear suspension arm itself back and forth, the equipment for moving the rear suspension arm at the time of model switching is enlarged and complicated.

[0006] And, in the latter's Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2003-12135, in order to switch the position of the rear support of the hanger device according to the model, it is necessary to arrange the pins on the rear support, the pin holes corresponding to the recesses, and the corresponding pin holes. The model classification of the positioning pin is provided in the support installation part, so there is a problem that the support installation part itself is enlarged, and at the same time, it is easy to interfere with the vehicle body when the hanger is mounted on the vehicle body.

In addition, as a device configuration for automatically switching the position of the rear support, it is necessary to accurately correspond to the mounting pins and pin holes, recesses and positioning pins arranged on the rear support, so there is complexity in the device. and the disadvantages of large-scale
