[0009] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings. However, such descriptions should not be interpreted in a limiting sense, and do not limit the subject matter described in the claims. Furthermore, various changes, substitutions, and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure. Furthermore, different embodiments can be combined as appropriate.

[0010] [Device 100 in the First Embodiment] First, the device 100 according to the first embodiment will be described. Figs. 1 to 7 are configuration diagrams of the device 100 according to the first embodiment. Specifically, Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the device 100. Fig. 2 is a front cross-sectional view of the device 100 before the heavy load 1 is attached. Fig. 3 is a view taken along the arrow AA of the device 100 before the heavy load 1 is attached. Fig. 4 is a top cross-sectional view of the device 100 before the heavy load 1 is attached. Fig. 5 is a front cross-sectional view of the device 100 during the attachment of the heavy load 1. Fig. 6 is a view taken along the arrow AA of the device 100 during the attachment of the heavy load 1. Fig. 7 is a top cross-sectional view of the device 100 during the attachment of the heavy load 1.

[0011] The device 100 is, for example, a device fixed to the floor of a water and sewage treatment facility, a factory, a server room, etc. (hereinafter, also referred to as a factory, etc.) Note that, although the following description will be given assuming that the device 100 is a distribution board fixed to the floor of a factory, etc., the device 100 may also be, for example, another device such as a cooling machine fixed to the floor of a factory, etc.

[0012] Specifically, the device 100 has, for example, a housing 10 as shown in FIGS.

[0013] The housing 10 has, for example, a housing frame 10a that forms the skeleton of the housing 10. The housing frame 10a is, for example, a rectangular parallelepiped or cubic box-shaped frame formed by a plurality of rod-shaped members (frames). Note that the hatched areas in the examples shown in Figures 2 and 3 indicate cross sections of each frame that forms the housing frame 10a.

[0014] The housing 10 also has a side panel 11 (hereinafter also referred to as the first side panel 11) that is attached to an end (hereinafter also referred to as one end) of the housing frame 10a on the X2 direction side to form the X2 direction surface of the housing 10, a side panel 12 (hereinafter also referred to as the second side panel 12) that is attached to an end (hereinafter also referred to as the other end) of the housing frame 10a on the X1 direction side to form the X1 direction surface of the housing 10, and a ceiling panel 13 that is attached to an end (hereinafter also referred to as the Z1 direction side) of the housing frame 10a to form the Z1 direction surface of the housing 10. The housing 10 also has a front panel 14 that is attached to an end (Y2 direction side) of the housing frame 10a to form the Y2 direction surface of the housing 10, a back panel 15 that is attached to an end (Y1 direction side) of the housing frame 10a to form the Y1 direction surface of the housing 10, and a floor panel 16 that is attached to an end (Z2 direction side) of the housing frame 10a to form the Z2 direction surface of the housing 10. As shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, the housing 10 also has a partition plate 17 that divides the space inside the housing 10 into a space on the Y1 direction side and a space on the Y2 direction side, for example.

[0015] The housing 10 is fixed to a floor (not shown) of a factory or the like by a floor panel 16. The front panel 14 has, for example, openable and closable door panels 14a and 14b, as shown in FIG.

[0016] 2 to 4, a beam support member 21 (hereinafter also referred to as a first beam support member 21) extending in the Y-axis direction (depth direction of the housing 10) is attached at a predetermined height to the X1 direction side (inner wall side) of the side panel 11. Furthermore, a beam support member 22 (hereinafter also referred to as a second beam support member 22) extending in the Y-axis direction is attached at a predetermined height to the X2 direction side (inner wall side) of the side panel 12. The predetermined height may be, for example, a height closer to the ceiling panel 13 than to the floor panel 16. In other words, the beam support member 21 and the beam support member 22 are attached at, for example, the same height.

[0017] 2 to 4, a beam member 23 extending in the X-axis direction (the horizontal direction of the housing 10) is attached between the X1 direction side of side panel 11 and the X2 direction side of side panel 12. A beam member 24 extending in the X-axis direction is attached between the X1 direction side of side panel 11 and the X2 direction side of side panel 12, for example, on the Z2 direction side of the attachment position of beam member 23 (at a position lower than the attachment position of beam member 23). Each of beam member 23 and beam member 24 is, for example, an L-shaped frame.

[0018] Specifically, as shown in Fig. 2, both ends of beam member 23 are fixed, for example, to the X1 direction side of side panel 11 and the X2 direction side of side panel 12. Similarly, both ends of beam member 24 are fixed, for example, to the X1 direction side of side panel 11 and the X2 direction side of side panel 12. Note that a portion of beam member 23 (a portion on the Y1 direction side) may be fixed, for example, to the Y2 direction side of partition plate 17, as shown in Figs. 3 and 4. Similarly, a portion of beam member 24 (a portion on the Y1 direction side) may be fixed, for example, to the Y2 direction side of partition plate 17.

[0019] Furthermore, for example, a heavy load 1 is attached at a predetermined position inside the housing 10. The heavy load 1 is, for example, a device such as a converter, an inverter, a transformer, or a capacitor.

[0020] Specifically, in this case, the weight 1 is attached to the housing 10 by being fixed to a part of the beam member 23 (a part on the Y2 direction side) and a part of the beam member 24 (a part on the Y2 direction side), for example.

[0021] Here, there may be a case where there is no space inside the housing 10 as described above to install equipment such as a crane for lifting the heavy load 1. Therefore, for example, a worker may manually lift the heavy load 1 inside the housing 10, which may not allow the heavy load 1 to be lifted inside the housing 10 efficiently and safely.

[0022] Therefore, when installing the heavy load 1 inside the housing 10, the worker installs the beam member 31 between the beam support member 21 and the beam support member 22, for example, as shown in FIGS.

[0023] Specifically, the worker attaches, for example, one end of the beam member 31 on the X2 direction side to a position on the beam support member 21 in the Y axis direction that corresponds to the attachment position of the heavy load 1 (the position in the Y axis direction is the same position as the attachment position of the heavy load 1). Also, the worker attaches, for example, one end of the beam member 31 on the X1 direction side to a position on the beam support member 22 in the Y axis direction that corresponds to the attachment position of the heavy load 1 (the position in the Y axis direction is the same position as the attachment position of the heavy load 1). Note that hereinafter, the attachment position of the heavy load 1 in the housing 10 will also be referred to as a predetermined position.

[0024] 5 to 7, the worker attaches, for example, one or more suspending members 32 capable of suspending the heavy load 1 to the beam member 31 at positions in the X-axis direction that correspond to the attachment positions of the heavy load 1 (positions in the X-axis direction that are the same as the attachment positions of the heavy load 1). The suspending members 32 may be, for example, suspending bolts having loops through which the wire 2 can be inserted.

[0025] Specifically, the worker identifies, for example, two locations on the beam member 31 that are the same distance from the center position of the attachment position of the heavy load 1. Then, the worker attaches one of the two identified locations, the hanging member 32 (hereinafter also referred to as hanging member 32a), to the location on the X2 direction side. Furthermore, the worker attaches the other of the two identified locations, the hanging member 32 (hereinafter also referred to as hanging member 32b), to the location on the X1 direction side.

[0026] Then, as shown in FIGS. 5 to 7, the worker hangs one end of a wire 2 (hereinafter also referred to as a string-like member 2) over the beam member 31 and attaches one end of the wire 2 to the heavy load 1, for example.

[0027] Specifically, the wire 2 is, for example, a wire whose one end branches into two. Then, for example, the worker inserts one of the two tip ends of the wire 2 (hereinafter also referred to as tip 2a) into the loop portion of the hanging member 32a and then attaches it to a protrusion 1a provided on the side surface of the heavy load 1 on the X2 direction side. Furthermore, for example, the worker inserts the other of the two tip ends of the wire 2 (hereinafter also referred to as tip 2b) into the loop portion of the hanging member 32b and then attaches it to a protrusion 1b provided on the side surface of the heavy load 1 on the X1 direction side.

[0028] For example, when there is only one suspending member 32 attached to the beam member 31, that is, when there is only one suspending member 32 that can be used to suspend the heavy load 1, the worker may use another wire (not shown) whose one end is not branched. In this case, the worker may, for example, insert one end of the other wire into the loop portion of the suspending member 32 and then attach the one end of the other wire to the top surface or the like of the heavy load 1, or may attach one end of the other wire to the top surface or the like of the heavy load 1 and then insert the other end of the other wire into the loop portion of the suspending member 32.

[0029] Furthermore, the worker lifts the heavy load 1 up to a height corresponding to the attachment position of the heavy load 1, for example, by winding up the other end of the wire 2 stretched across the beam member 31.

[0030] Specifically, the worker moves the heavy load 1 to a position on the floor panel 16 that corresponds to the attachment position of the heavy load 1 in the X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction. Then, the worker attaches the other end of the wire 2 to a winch (not shown), and then uses the winch to wind up the other end of the wire 2, thereby lifting the heavy load 1 to a height that corresponds to the attachment position of the heavy load 1.

[0031] Thereafter, the worker attaches the heavy load 1 at the attachment position of the heavy load 1, for example, as shown in FIGS.

[0032] This allows the worker to lift the heavy object 1 without using, for example, a crane or the like for lifting the heavy object 1 and without relying on manpower. Therefore, even if, for example, sufficient space cannot be secured inside the housing 10, the worker can efficiently and safely lift and install the heavy object 1 inside the housing 10.

[0033] [Details of the beam support member 21 and the beam member 31 in the first embodiment] Next, details of the beam support member 21 and the beam member 31 in the first embodiment will be described. Fig. 8 is a detailed configuration diagram of the beam support member 21 and the beam member 31 in the first embodiment. Note that the configuration of the beam support member 22 is similar to the configuration of the beam support member 21, so a description thereof will be omitted. Furthermore, the configuration of the beam support member 22 side (X1 direction side) of the beam member 31 is similar to the configuration of the beam support member 21 side (X2 direction side) of the beam member 31, so a description thereof will be omitted.

[0034] 8, the beam support member 21 is, for example, an L-shaped frame extending in the Y-axis direction. Specifically, the beam support member 21 is composed of, for example, a flat portion 21a arranged parallel to the ceiling panel 13 and extending in the Y-axis direction, and a flat portion 21b arranged parallel to the side panel 11 and extending in the Y-axis direction.

[0035] Furthermore, the beam support member 21 has, for example, a plurality of holes 21c provided in the flat portion 21a. Each of the plurality of holes 21c may be, for example, an oval hole.

[0036] 8, the beam member 31 is, for example, an L-shaped frame attached so as to extend in the X-axis direction. Specifically, the beam member 31 is composed of, for example, a flat surface portion 31a arranged parallel to the ceiling board 13 (flat surface portion 21a) and extending in the X-axis direction, and a flat surface portion 31b arranged parallel to the front board 14 and extending in the X-axis direction.

[0037] Furthermore, the beam member 31 has, for example, a plurality of holes 31c formed in the flat portion 31a. Each of the plurality of holes 31c may be, for example, a rectangular hole.

[0038] The beam support member 21 and the beam member 31 are fixed to each other by, for example, fastening a bolt 21d, which is inserted through a hole 21c at a position corresponding to the attachment position of the heavy load 1 and a hole 31c located furthest on the X2 direction side, with a nut 21e. Note that the hole 21c at a position corresponding to the attachment position of the heavy load 1 is, for example, the hole 21c whose position in the Y-axis direction is the same as or the closest to the attachment position of the heavy load 1 (the center position of the attachment position of the heavy load 1).

[0039] The hanging member 32 also has, for example, a loop portion 321 through which the wire 2 can be inserted. Furthermore, the hanging member 32 is fixed to the beam member 31 by, for example, fastening a bolt 322 (the bolt 322 constituting a part of the hanging member 32) that is inserted through a hole 31c at a position corresponding to the attachment position of the heavy load 1 with a nut 323. Note that the hole 31c at the position corresponding to the attachment position of the heavy load 1 is, for example, a hole 31c whose position in the X-axis direction is the same as or closest to the attachment position of the heavy load 1 (the center position of the attachment position of the heavy load 1).

[0040] As a result, in the method for moving a heavy object in this embodiment, for example, by adjusting the hole 21c used to fasten the beam support member 21 to the beam member 31 and the hole 31c used to fasten the beam member 31 to the hanging member 32, it is possible to freely adjust the lifting position of the heavy object 1. Therefore, in the method for moving a heavy object in this embodiment, it is possible to lift the heavy object 1, for example, regardless of the lifting position of the heavy object 1 and without relying on manpower. Therefore, in the method for moving a heavy object in this embodiment, it is possible to efficiently and safely lift and install the heavy object 1 in the housing 10, for example.

[0041] [Method for moving a heavy object in the first embodiment] Next, a method for moving a heavy object in the first embodiment will be described. Figures 9 and 10 are flow charts for explaining the method for moving a heavy object in the first embodiment. Specifically, Figure 9 is a diagram for explaining the method for moving a heavy object when lifting the heavy object 1. Also, Figure 10 is a diagram for explaining the method for moving a heavy object when lowering the heavy object 1.

[0042] As shown in FIG. 9, for example, the worker attaches beam member 31 so as to straddle beam support member 21 and beam support member 22 (step S1 in FIG. 9).

[0043] Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 5 to 7, for example, the worker attaches both ends of the beam member 31 to the beam support member 21 and the beam support member 22, respectively.

[0044] Next, the worker, for example, hangs one end of the wire 2 over the beam member 31 and attaches it to the heavy load 1 (step S2 in FIG. 9).

[0045] Specifically, as described in Figures 5 to 7, the worker attaches the hanging member 32 to a position (hole 31c) in the X-axis direction of the beam member 31 attached in step S1 that corresponds to the attachment position of the heavy load 1, and then inserts one end of the wire 2 into the annular portion 321 of the hanging member 32 and attaches it to the heavy load 1.

[0046] Note that the beam member 31 may not have, for example, multiple holes 31c. In this case, the worker may directly hang one end of the wire 2 over the beam member 31 attached in step S1 at a position in the X-axis direction that corresponds to the attachment position of the heavy load 1. Furthermore, in this case, the beam member 31 may have, for example, a cylindrical or columnar shape extending in the X-axis direction.

[0047] Next, the worker lifts the heavy load 1 to a height corresponding to the attachment position of the heavy load 1, for example, by winding up the other end of the wire 2 that was hung around the beam member 31 in step S2 (step S3 in FIG. 9).

[0048] Specifically, the worker winds up the other end of the wire 2 by using, for example, a winch to which the other end of the wire 2 is attached.

[0049] Thereafter, the worker attaches the heavy load 1 lifted up in step S3 to the attachment position for the heavy load 1 (step S4 in FIG. 9).

[0050] Here, in step S1, the worker may use, for example, two frames extending in the Y-axis direction among the multiple frames that make up the housing frame 10a as the beam support member 21 and the beam support member 22, respectively.

[0051] Specifically, as shown in Figure 5, for example, the worker may use frame 10a1 (hereinafter also referred to as first frame 10a1) located on the X2 direction side and on the Z1 direction side (above) of the attachment position of the heavy load 1, of the multiple frames extending in the Y-axis direction that make up the housing frame 10a, as beam support member 21, and may use frame 10a2 (hereinafter also referred to as second frame 10a2) located on the X1 direction side and on the Z1 direction side of the attachment position of the heavy load 1 as beam support member 22.

[0052] This allows the worker to attach the beam member 31 even when the beam support members 21 and 22 are not attached inside the housing 10, and to lift the heavy load 1 inside the housing 10. Furthermore, even when the attachment height of the beam support members 21 and 22 attached inside the housing 10 is lower than the height of the lifting position or attachment position of the heavy load 1, the worker can use the frames 10a1 and 10a2 instead of the beam support members 21 and 22 to lift the heavy load 1 inside the housing 10.

[0053] In addition, when frames 10a1 and 10a2 are used as beam support members 21 and 22, the worker may, for example, remove ceiling panel 13 and then attach beam member 31 to frames 10a1 and 10a2.

[0054] Thus, in the device 100 of this embodiment, the housing frame 10a has, for example, a beam support member 21 extending in the Y-axis direction on the X2-direction side of the housing frame 10a, and a beam support member 22 extending in the Y-axis direction on the X1-direction side of the housing frame 10a.

[0055] Specifically, in device 100 according to the present embodiment, for example, side panel 11 is attached to the X2 direction side of housing frame 10a, and for example, side panel 12 opposing side panel 11 is attached to the X1 direction side of housing frame 10a. In this case, beam support member 21 is attached, for example, at a predetermined height on the surface of side panel 11 opposing side panel 12. In addition, beam support member 22 is attached, for example, at a predetermined height on the surface of side panel 12 opposing side panel 11.

[0056] In addition, in the device 100 of this embodiment, the beam support member 21 is, for example, frame 10a1, among the multiple frames that make up the housing frame 10a, which is located at a predetermined height on the X2 direction side of the housing frame 10a, and the beam support member 22 is, for example, frame 10a2, among the multiple frames that make up the housing frame 10a, which is located at a predetermined height on the X1 direction side of the housing frame 10a.

[0057] The method for moving a heavy load in this embodiment includes, for example, the steps of attaching each end of beam member 31 to a position on beam support member 21 and beam support member 22 in the Y-axis direction that corresponds to a predetermined position, hanging one end of wire 2 over beam member 31 at a position on beam member 31 in the X-axis direction that corresponds to the predetermined position and attaching the one end of wire 2 to heavy load 1, and winding up the other end of wire 2 hung over beam member 31. The method for moving a heavy load also includes, for example, the step of attaching heavy load 1, which has been raised to the height that corresponds to the predetermined position, to the predetermined position.

[0058] Specifically, in the method for moving a heavy object in this embodiment, for example, a hanging member 32 capable of hanging a heavy object 1 is attached to a position on the beam member 31 in the X-axis direction corresponding to a predetermined position, one end of a wire 2 is inserted into a ring portion 321 of the hanging member 32, and one end of the wire 2 is attached to the heavy object 1.

[0059] As a result, in the method for moving a heavy object in this embodiment, for example, it is possible to freely adjust the attachment positions (attachment positions in the X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction) of the hanging members 32 used to lift the heavy object 1. Therefore, in the method for moving a heavy object in this embodiment, for example, it is possible to lift the heavy object 1 regardless of the lifting position of the heavy object 1 and without relying on manpower. Therefore, in the method for moving a heavy object in this embodiment, for example, it is possible to lift and attach the heavy object 1 efficiently and safely.

[0060] The method for moving a heavy object in this embodiment can also be applied, for example, to the case where another heavy object (not shown, hereinafter also referred to as the other heavy object) is removed when the other heavy object is attached inside the housing 10 (to the beam members 23 and 24). Furthermore, the method for moving a heavy object in this embodiment can also be applied, for example, to the case where both the removal of the other heavy object and the attachment of the heavy object 1 are performed (for example, when replacing a heavy object due to deterioration over time).

[0061] Specifically, as shown in FIG. 10, the worker attaches the beam member 31 so as to straddle the beam support members 21 and 22, for example, in the same manner as in step S1 in FIG. 9 (step S11 in FIG. 10).

[0062] Then, the worker hangs one end of the wire 2 over the beam member 31 and attaches it to another heavy object (another heavy object attached inside the housing 10) (step S12 in FIG. 10). In this case, the other end of the wire 2 may be wound around a winch, for example.

[0063] Next, the worker removes, for example, the other heavy object to which one end of the wire 2 is attached in step S12 from inside the housing 10 (step S13 in FIG. 10). That is, in this case, the worker suspends the other heavy object by one end of the wire 2, for example, by removing the other heavy object from inside the housing 10 (beam members 23 and 24).

[0064] Thereafter, the other heavy object is lowered by letting out the other end of the wire 2 that was detached in step S13 (step S4 in FIG. 10). Specifically, the worker uses, for example, a winch to let out the other end of the wire 2, thereby lowering the other heavy object to above the floor panel 16. Then, the worker detaches, for example, one end of the wire 2 from the other heavy object and carries the other heavy object out of the housing 10.

[0065] As a result, the heavy object moving method of this embodiment makes it possible to efficiently and safely remove and lower other heavy objects, for example.

[0066] When attaching the heavy object 1 after removing another heavy object, the worker may, for example, carry the heavy object 1 into the housing 10 and then perform step S2 and subsequent steps in FIG.

[0067] [Device 200 in the Second Embodiment] Next, the device 200 according to the second embodiment will be described. Fig. 11 is a configuration diagram of the device 200 according to the second embodiment. Specifically, Fig. 11 is a front cross-sectional view of the device 200 in the process of attaching the heavy load 1.

[0068] 11 , the worker attaches, for example, a height adjustment member 41 (hereinafter also referred to as a first height adjustment member 41) at least a portion of which extends in the Z-axis direction to a position on the beam support member 21 whose position in the Y-axis direction corresponds to the attachment position of the heavy load 1. In addition, the worker attaches, for example, a height adjustment member 42 (hereinafter also referred to as a second height adjustment member 42) at least a portion of which extends in the Z-axis direction to a position on the beam support member 22 whose position in the Y-axis direction corresponds to the attachment position of the heavy load 1.

[0069] Then, for example, the worker attaches one end of the beam member 31 on the X2 direction side to a position on the Z1 direction side of the height adjustment member 41 where the beam support member 21 is attached. Also, for example, the worker attaches one end of the beam member 31 on the X1 direction side to a position on the height adjustment member 42 where the beam support member 21 is attached.

[0070] That is, in the equipment 200 in the second embodiment, for example, the beam support member 21 and the beam member 31 are attached via a height adjustment member 41, and the beam support member 22 and the beam member 31 are attached via a height adjustment member 42.

[0071] This makes it possible to adjust, for example, the mounting height of the beam member 31 in the device 200 according to the second embodiment. Therefore, for example, the lifting position and mounting position of the weight 1 can be adjusted not only in the X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction but also in the Z-axis direction in the device 200 according to the second embodiment.

[0072] Specifically, in the present embodiment, even if the installation height of the beam support members 21 and 22 is lower than the height of the installation position of the heavy load 1, the installation height of the beam member 31 (the height of the annular portion 321 in the hanging member 32) can be adjusted so that it is higher than the height of the lifting position or installation position of the heavy load 1.

[0073] [Details of the beam support member 21 and the beam member 31 in the second embodiment] Next, details of the beam support member 21 and the beam member 31 in the second embodiment will be described. Fig. 12 is a detailed configuration diagram of the beam support member 21 and the beam member 31 in the second embodiment. Note that the configuration of the height adjustment member 42 is similar to the configuration of the height adjustment member 41, so a description thereof will be omitted.

[0074] 12, the beam member 31 has, for example, a plurality of holes 31c provided in the flat portion 31a and a plurality of holes 31d provided in the flat portion 31b. Each of the plurality of holes 31d may be, for example, a rectangular hole.

[0075] The height adjustment member 41 may be, for example, an L-shaped member. Specifically, the height adjustment member 41 is configured by a plurality of members including, for example, a flat surface portion 41a arranged so as to be parallel to the flat surface portion 21a of the beam support member 21, and a flat surface portion 41b arranged so as to be parallel to the flat surface portion 31b.

[0076] The height adjustment member 41 also has, for example, a plurality of holes 41c provided in the flat surface portion 41a and a plurality of holes 41d provided in the flat surface portion 41b. Each of the plurality of holes 41c and the plurality of holes 41d may be, for example, a circular hole.

[0077] The beam support member 21 and the height adjustment member 41 are fixed to each other by, for example, fastening a bolt 21d with a nut 21e, the bolt 21d having been inserted through a hole 21c at a position corresponding to the attachment position of the heavy load 1 and one of the holes 41c. Specifically, the bolt 21d is inserted through, for example, a hole 21c at a position corresponding to the attachment position of the heavy load 1 and one of the holes 41c located furthest in the X2 direction among the holes 41c.

[0078] The height adjustment member 41 and the beam member 31 are fixed to each other by, for example, fastening a bolt 31e, which is inserted through one of the holes 41d and the hole 31d located furthest in the X2 direction, with a nut 31f. Specifically, the bolt 31e is inserted through, for example, one of the holes 41d located furthest in the X2 direction and the hole 31d located furthest in the X2 direction.

[0079] Thus, in the method for moving a heavy object in this embodiment, for example, each of the height adjustment members 41 and 42 is attached to a position on each of the beam support members 21 and 22 in the Y-axis direction that corresponds to a predetermined position, and each of the two ends of the beam member 31 is attached to a position higher than the predetermined height on each of the height adjustment members 41 and 42 (a position on the Z1 direction side of the predetermined height).

[0080] As a result, in the device 200 of this embodiment, for example, it becomes possible to adjust the lifting position and attachment position of the weight 1 not only in the X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction but also in the Z-axis direction.

[0081] In addition, in the method for moving a heavy object in the second embodiment, for example, in step S1 of Figure 9, a height adjustment member 41 may be attached to the beam support member 21, and a height adjustment member 42 may be attached to the beam support member 22, and then a beam member 31 may be attached to each of the height adjustment member 41 and the height adjustment member 42.
