ABSTRACT:
In an automobile assembly line wherein a car body is hung and conveyed by a hanger; an apparatus for aid in attaching a wheel in which the wheel is set on a pair of wheel supporting structures (12, 12) at a wheel placement position, a base plate (10) is held in a balanced state by an air cylinder (16) interposed between a pole (8) and a vertical motion unit (9), the base plate (10) supporting the wheel is approximated to a wheel attachment position in the car body (1) while being synchronously moved by a synchronous motion unit (5), and the wheel is moved horizontally and vertically by turning an annular handle (15) with its balanced state kept by the air cylinder (16), thereby to effect the positioning between the wheel and a hub on the car body (1), so that an operator need not directly lift up the wheel.
