AUTOMATIC CONVEYING CARRIAGE AND CONVEYING SYSTEM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an automatic conveying carriage which keeps a constant distance from a preceding automatic conveying carriage, and also provide a conveying system by which many automatic conveying carriages can autonomously and safely be operated.

SOLUTION: Preceding carriage passing time data are written in an RFID 20 arranged in parallel on a conveying route 30 by a preceding conveying carriage 10. The succeeding conveying carriage 10 reads the preceding truck passing time data, computes a time difference between the time of the preceding carriage passing time data and its own passing time, and autonomously moves based on the time difference thus computed. The conveying system which enables the carriages to keep a constant distance comprises a plurality of such automatic conveying carriages 10.
