PURPOSE: To safely and positively support a car body when the front part or the rear part of the car body is lifted up, by arranging and installing a means for turnably supporting a pan so that the pan can follow the angles of inclination of the car body, and a mean for stably supporting the pan at any angle of inclination.
CONSTITUTION: In a pan assembly 100 capable of oscillating, pan 110 capable of oscillating has a car supporting part 150 at the upper peripheral edge part. A pan supporting means 120 supports the pan 110 around a turning-center shaft line 170 intersecting the longitudinal direction of a car body at right angles so that the pan can freely turn, and a bolt-nut 200 is penetrated through a through hole 180 in the direction of the turning-center shaft line 170 to turnably connect the pan 110 to a center pin 190. A pan stably holding means 130 receives the contact face 210 of a member 220 being guided, firmly installed on the undersurface of the pan 110 by the receiving face 230 of a guide member 240. A turning movement preventing means 140 has a locking surface 250 facing the receiving face 230, in succession to the contact face 210, and prevents the pan 110 from turning over a specified angle.
