has a vertical bottle hole 4 that allows horizontal movement of the connection n1. Reference numeral 5 denotes the coupler side, and a body receiving plate 6 is attached below the coupler side, sandwiching both sides thereof. The trunk receiving plate 6 is connected to the coupler I.
The upper part of the body support beam 7 supporting the body is placed horizontally, and between the body support beam 7 and the body support plate 6, a slide plate 8 with low wire resistance is attached. 9 is a spring box for supporting the trunk support beam 7 to the underframe 10. 11 is a swinging tool, connecting l
The center of rotation is set on the center of the vertical pin Daifuku of the joint 3, which is the center of rotation of the horizontal swinging motion of i1, and is shaped to straddle both sides of the connector body 5. The rotary spindle is fixed to the screw hole 13 of the swinging tool 11, and the rotational force of the rotating spindle itself is transmitted to the swinging tool 11. Note that the rotating spindle ν passes through a bearing 14 and is coupled to the swinging tool 11.
The swinging tool 11 is held by fixing it to the underframe IO. Reference numeral 15 denotes a handle for rotating the rotary spindle, which passes through a handle hole 16 provided in the underframe 10 and is operated by fitting into the rotary spindle.

。Since the coupler 1 can be oscillated in the horizontal direction on the body support beam 7, the safety of the coupling operation on vehicles traveling on elevated tracks is improved. Further, the swinging device 11 follows the swinging of the coupler 1 on the curve after coupling with the other vehicle, and does not inhibit the swinging of the coupler 1. By the way, in the above-mentioned configuration, the coupler 1
There is no mechanism necessary for swing operation on both sides of the swing tool 11.
The above-mentioned operations are carried out by the following, and the configuration is very simple. Furthermore, since the configuration is simple, failures are less likely to occur.

る。このことにより、抵抗力を調整できる効果がある。In addition, in order to prevent the natural swinging of the coupler l due to inertia force on the curved track during normal running, the spherical fixing metal fitting 4 is installed so that it can fit into the fixing hole n on the side of the trunk receiving plate 6. A spring 18 is built into the spherical fixing metal fitting to generate a resistance force against the horizontal movement of the coupler 1, but to prevent the swinging operation force of the two swinging tools 11 from becoming excessive. This has the effect of adjusting the resistance force.
