Manufacturing system
First Claim
1. A manufacturing system comprising:
- a base; and
multiple work machine modules that are each arranged on the base on a common arrangement axis extending in an arrangement direction, and are each attachable to and detachable from the base, whereinthe base includes multiple rail pairs that are provided so that each pair corresponds to one of the multiple work machine modules, and each pair of the rails is laid so that a respective longitudinal direction thereof extends in an intersecting direction that is a direction that intersects with the arrangement direction,each of the multiple work machine modules includes a respective one pair of wheels,the base is configured such that the position, in the arrangement direction and on the base, of each of the multiple work machine modules is specified by one wheel of the corresponding one wheel pair engaging with one rail of the corresponding one rail pair with almost no gap in the arrangement direction between said respective one wheel and said respective one rail such that positional deviation of the respective one wheel in the arrangement direction is prohibited, and the other wheel of the corresponding one wheel pair engaging with the other rail of the corresponding one rail pair with a gap in the arrangement direction between said respective other wheel and said respective other rail such that positional deviation of said respective other wheel is permitted in the arrangement direction, andthe base further includes multiple module fixing mechanisms, each of which restricts a given one of the multiple work machine modules such that the given work machine module is drawn toward the base, and fixes the given work machine module at a respective setting position that is a designated position on the base.

Abstract
A manufacturing system including a base and multiple work machine modules that are arranged in an arrangement direction on base to be attachable to and detachable from base, in which one wheel of a pair provided on work machine module is engaged with one rail of a pair provided on base in a state in which positional deviation in the arrangement direction is prohibited, and the other wheel of the pair is engaged with the other rail of the pair in a state in which positional deviation is permitted in the arrangement direction, thereby the position of work machine modules on the base in the arrangement direction is specified, and work machine modules are fixed at a setting position on the base to be restricted so as to be drawn toward the base by a module fixing mechanism that is provided on the base.
