PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce an overall conveying route by assembling a preform mounting member in an array state corresponding to each preform molding cavity in the case of receiving the preform by the member, then fragmenting a preform mounting member group, and moving it to a blow molding machine. SOLUTION: In the case of receiving a preform PF by a mandrel M as a preform mounting member, the mandrel M is assembled in an array state (8 in vertical×4 in horizontal) corresponding to a preform molding cavity of an injection molding machine, and the mandrel group is conveyed to the vicinity of the machine by a mandrel conveyor 4. Thereafter, the group is fragmented to four mandrel columns made of eight mandrels M. The conveyor 4 has a mandrel inlet aligning and traverser 10, a preform receiving traverser 12, a mandrel forcing unit 13, a mandrels outlet aligning traverse 14 and the like.
