By a known electromagnetic induction method or optical induction method, an automatic guided vehicle 1 that travels along a traveling path is provided with a carrier 2 that is a drive conveyor that can be driven forward and backward with the conveying direction oriented in the left and right directions. There is. An unmanned guided vehicle 1 is provided with a pair of article guide rails 3 so as to be located above both sides (front and rear sides) of the cargo bed 2, and the left and right ends of these article guide rails 3 are separated from the other article guide rails 3. The taper portion 4 is formed so as to expand in the away direction. The article guide rail 3 at the rear portion is provided so as to be able to move toward and away from the article guide rail 3 at the front portion by a known actuating device 6 including a guide rod 7, a ball screw 8, a motor 9 that can rotate forward and backward. Has been. The rear article guide rail 3 and the luggage carrier 2 do not collide or interfere with each other. In addition, the front article guide rail 3 and the rear article guide rail 3 should be close to and away from each other.
