PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a carriage conveyor used in a vehicle assembly, by which the length of the entire line can be shortened by accurately changing the direction of a vehicle on a conveyance carriage only for required processes by a simple mechanism.SOLUTION: A carriage conveyor 10 used in a vehicle assembly line P comprises: a work table 1 on which a vehicle W is placed; a conveyance carriage 2 supporting the work table such that the table is horizontally rotatable; and a driving device 4 that conveys the conveyance carriage along a path 3. At the lower end of the work table 1, a rotation member 17 is provided, which is formed so as to be horizontally rotatable around a vertical shaft 11 extending downward from the lower end of the conveyance carriage 2. On the path 3, an actuation member 5 is provided, which engages with the rotation member 17 and rotates the rotation member by a predetermined angle θ.
【課題】搬送台車における車両の向きを、必要な工程だけ簡単な機構で正確に変更させて、全体のライン長さを短縮することができる自動車組立てラインに用いる台車搬送コンベアを提供する。【解決手段】車両Wを載置するワーク台1と、当該ワーク台を水平回動可能に支持する搬送台車2と、当該搬送台車を軌道3に沿って搬送させる駆動装置4とを備えた、自動車組立てラインPに用いる台車搬送コンベア10である。ワーク台1の下端には、搬送台車2の下端より下方へ延びる垂直軸11を中心にして水平回動可能に形成された回動部材17を設け、軌道3上には、回動部材17と係合して当該回動部材を所定角度θ回動させる作動部材5を備える。【選択図】図2
