Abstract:
PURPOSE: To smooth trainlike movement of a group of movable bodies by providing a conveyed article supporting part and a pair of guided devices supported and guided by a rail in one frame body, providing guided devices on free end sides in other frame bodies, and providing a feeding roller freely coming in contact with a passive face.
CONSTITUTION: In a movable body 10, its main body 11 is formed of three frame bodies 12, 13, 14. Among these frame bodies 12, 13, 14, the intermediate part frame body 13 is provided with a conveyed article supporting part 25 and a pair of front and rear guided devices 30 supported and guided by a rail 3. The rest of front and rear frame bodies 12, 14 are provided with guided devices 31, 32 on respective free end sides. The front part frame body 12 is clamped by pressing a feeding roller 49 onto one passive face 15 and pressing a fixed roller 54 onto the other passive face 15. In this way, the movable body 10 moves at the desired speed on the fixed passage 5, and a group of the movable bodies, which are positioned on the fixed passage 5 and form a tight train, are moved by being pushed from the back side, so that smooth movement can be achieved even in a curved passage.
