At another predetermined position in the fixed path 5, there is provided a friction-type feeder 70 which applies a running force to the moving body 20 by rotating in contact with the lateral passive surface 25.
The friction-type feeding device 70 includes an induction motor 71 with a speed reducer, which is an example of a rotation driving unit, and an output shaft 72 taken out of the induction motor 71 in a vertical direction.
Is constituted by a feed roller 73 and the like, which are attached to the camera. The feed roller 73 has, for example, an outer peripheral portion made of urethane.

The friction-type feeding device 70 can apply a running force to the moving body 20 by causing the feed roller 73 driven and rotated to abut on the laterally passive surface 25. At this time, the friction-type feeding device 70 may be of a stationary type, or in order to obtain a more sufficient contact force, for example, the feed roller 73 is urged against the laterally-directed passive surface 25 by an elastic repulsive force of a compression spring. It may be in a format that can be used. And friction type feeder 7
0 is disposed at predetermined intervals on a predetermined path portion of the fixed path 5, and at this time, the arrangement pitch P is equal to the total length L of the moving body 20.
, That is, P> L.

The operation of the above embodiment will be described below. As shown by the imaginary lines in FIGS. 2 and 7, in a predetermined path portion excluding the processing chamber 55 in the fixed path 5, the feed roller 73 that is in contact with the horizontal passive surface 25 is driven by the induction motor 71. By rotating, the running body 20 is given a running force by the friction type feeding device 70, and the running body 20 can be fed and run. In other words, the traveling of the moving body 20 by the frictional feeder 70 is performed by moving the feed roller 73 from the horizontal passive surface 25 of the front frame body 22 to the horizontal passive surface 25 of the intermediate frame body 23 and the horizontal This is performed by sequentially acting on the passive surface 25.

At this time, when the feed roller 73 is acting on the front frame body 22, the intermediate frame body 23 and the rear frame body 24 are pulled and moved via the connecting device 27. When acting on
When the front frame body 22 is pushed and moved via the connecting device 27 and the rear frame body 24 is pulled and moved via the connecting device 27 and further acts on the rear frame body 24, the intermediate frame body 23 The front frame body 22 is pushed and moved via the connecting device 27.

In such traveling (moving), each guided device 30 is supported and guided by both rails 12 of the rail device 11 via each supported roller 33, and each guided roller 35 is guided. It is guided in contact with the portion 12a. Further, the idling wheels 50 are also supported and guided by the guide rail 51. Thereby, the movement of the moving body 20 is performed stably without rattling or falling down, so that various operations on the transferred object W and loading / unloading of the transferred object W can always be performed accurately.

The traveling of the moving body 20 described above is performed intermittently at the arrangement pitch P of the friction-type feeding device 70. At this time, when the lower friction-type feeding device 70 is empty. Automatic control is performed based on detection by an appropriate detection means or the like so that intermittent feeding is performed. Then, at the position of the friction-type feeding device 70, the moving body 20 is stopped by the non-rotation of the feed roller 73, and the work is transferred to the worker on the floor 1 or the main body 21 in a state where the positioning is performed by appropriate positioning means.

Here, the endless rotary feeder 60 is being fed. That is, by forcibly rotating the drive wheel body 61 by the drive device 63, the endless belt 64 wound around the driven wheel body 62 is rotated.

Accordingly, since the endless belt 64 abuts on the downwardly directed surface 40 from below, the moving body 2
0 runs integrally with the endless belt 64. At that time,
The endless belt 64 is supported and guided by a group of receiving rollers 65 from below, and the supported roller 33 of the guided device 30 is raised with respect to the rail 12 by setting the level of the group of receiving rollers 65.

When the moving body 20 reaches the exit portion of the processing chamber 55, the endless belt 64 comes off with respect to the downward passive surface 40. Thereby, the feed force by the endless rotary feed device 60 is released,
After that, the running force is applied by the above-mentioned friction type feeding device 70.

In addition, at an appropriate place after exiting from the processing chamber 55, the worked object W is lowered from the support part 45 and a new object W is transferred to the support part 45.
Is loaded. In this way, the moving body 20 is circulated on the fixed route 5.

In the case where a curved path portion upward (or downward) in side view is formed in the fixed path 5,
When the guided device 30 is relatively rotated around the horizontal pins 38 and 39 with respect to the vertical shafts 28 and 29, the rail 1
It is smoothly moved while automatically changing its direction along the vertical curve of No. 2.

In the configuration described above, the endless belt 64
Is brought into contact with the downward facing passive surface 40 from below, and the rail device 1
By moving the moving body 20 integrally with the endless belt 64 in a state where the supported roller 33 of the guided device 30 is lifted with respect to the endless belt 64, the endless belt 64 and the downward passive surface 4 are moved.
The moving body 20 can travel in the processing chamber 55 in a state where no slippage occurs between the moving body 20 and the moving object 20. Therefore, even if the vehicle is running at high speed, the vehicle can always be easily and suitably operated at a desired pitch. In addition, noise can be reduced, the generation of dust can be suppressed, and cleanliness can be achieved, and the entire apparatus can be provided at a low cost, by the type of lifting and supporting by the endless belt 64 for traveling.
