A vehicle body transfer machine transfers a vehicle body (F,W3) along a transfer path (1,2,3,4) by using a transfer truck (5) with which the vehicle body is supported, wherein the transfer truck is returned to an initial starting position (Ss) of the transfer path for a repeated use when transfer of the vehicle body is terminated. The vehicle body transfer machine comprises a jig change-over stage (Sj) located before the initial starting position of the transfer path, a plurality of locator jigs (9A...9E,10A...10E) including an upwardly directed locating pin, a plurality of lock units, an unlock-operating unit (100), and a jig change-over unit (64) including a socket portion engageable with the locating pin of the corresponding one of the plurality of locator jigs. The socket portion is moveable toward the locating pin to be brought into engagement therewith under a first unlock condition established when the unlock-operating unit (100) unlock-operates the plurality of lock units, which is correlated with the horizontal two directions, of the corresponding one of the plurality of locator jigs to perform a relative positioning in the two horizontal directions between the jig change-over unit (64) and the corresponding one of the plurality of locator jigs. <IMAGE> |
