When the stop position of the self-propelled carriage shifts in the front-rear direction or the width direction or the stop posture is inclined with respect to the transfer device, the support device is in a distorted posture with respect to the self-propelled carriage. The clamps facing each other and the above-mentioned clamp are performed with an irregular clamping force.However, due to the irregular reaction force of the clamping force, rotation around the longitudinal axis of the table and the front-back direction of the movable table with respect to the table are performed. One of the movements and the movements in the left and right directions are automatically performed, or in the end, the movable table properly faces the self-propelled carriage, and the self-propelled support device is self-propelled. It can be exactly opposite the dolly.
Therefore, the work of passing the supporting device by the passing device is
It can be performed accurately on a self-propelled trolley.
