ABSTRACT:
Apparatus is provided for supporting a retractable roof. The support includes a support frame which supports the roof sections, and a follower wheel which moves along a rail formed in the retraction and expansion direction of the roof sections. The support frame has a base support having a spherical surface. Also included is a base capable of tolerating movement within a given range in the horizontal direction, substantially perpendicular to the rail and supported by the base support via a movement-limiting portion which limits the movement in the rail direction.
