The carrier means is arranged along the upper side of the plating tank. The hoisting means is arranged along a charging portion in the treatment tanks or the plating tank and/or the exporting portion of the plating tank. The moving means are each arranged at an ascending position and a descending position of the hoisting means in a position for transferring the article between the carrier means and the hoisting means.
