<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enlarge the movement range of a work mounting table by providing a station with a connecting means engaged with a connecting means of a work mounting table to connect a communication cable and a control means to each other. SOLUTION: When a pallet T reaches the next station, a sensing means senses the pallet T to stop transporting the pallet T, and a fluid pressure cylinder 11 is driven to turn rotary members 8a, 8b in the closing direction. A projecting part 5 of a first connecting means 2 provided on the pallet T is clamed by rotary members 8a, 8b, and brushes 10a, 10b of a second connecting means 3 provided on the next station come into contact with electrode plates 6a, 6b of the first connecting means 2 to be in the conducting state. In such a condition, a signal is given and taken between a first control means and a second control means. The second control means controls the operation of each operating part according to a work carry-out command or the like output from the first control means.</p> |
