4, the carriage 50 and the container 1 can be tilted or reversed at a predetermined angle by the second rotary part 60 so that the lid 545 has its outlet 548 And the posture may be changed so as to be approximately downward or downward as the cross-sectional area is decreased (state of light-narrow convergence).

It is possible to control the opening of the electric valve by sending a signal to the electric control valve 549 after the control unit 70 detects that the carriage 50 is tilted by a predetermined angle by the position sensor or the like. As a result, the contents of the container 1 are supplied by the unillustrated carrier.

For example, the carrier may be provided with a hopper and may be associated with the cover of the carriage. In addition, a sensor such as a load cell may be provided at the delivery destination to check the supply of the contents through the weight of the contents.

After the container 1 and the lid 545 are engaged, the mast 20 may first be pivoted if necessary, and then the elevating device 40 may be operated or the carriage 50 may be tilted. Alternatively, after the container and the lid are engaged, the carriage may be tilted first, and then the lift device may be operated or the mast 20 may be turned.

Alternatively, after the container 1 and the lid 545 are engaged, the operation of the elevation device 40, the turning of the mast 20, and the reversal of the carriage 50 may be simultaneously performed.

After the supply of the contents is completed, the carriage 50 is rotated to the original position, and the lid 545 is returned to the posture in which the cross-sectional area increases as the lid 545 goes down. In addition, the mast 20 is rotated to the home position, and then the elevating device 40 is operated to lower the carriage 50 in place.

Finally, the gripper 54 is opened by operating the actuator 542 through the control unit 70 to extend the operation rod 543 so that the container 1 can be drawn out from the carrier 50.
