ABSTRACT:
A hanger tilt mechanism for a hanging transportation apparatus in which a carrier traveling along a rail is equipped with a hanger having a circular arc-shaped portion so as to be tiltable. The carrier is further equipped with a driving motor and a tilt mechanism for transmitting a rotational force of the driving motor to the circular arc-shaped portion for tilting the hanger. The tilt mechanism, in a preferred embodiment, includes a chain stretched along the circular arc-shaped portion of the hanger and a sprocket which meshes with the chain and is rotated by the driving motor.
