PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce preparation work, dispense with operation during work, and avoid danger such as an injury and accident and failure.SOLUTION: A mobile unit includes: a mobile body 100 working while moving on a travel face and a support device 200 including a movement support part 250 arranged so as to move in a direction crossing a movement direction of the mobile body 100 and supporting movement of the mobile body 100. The mobile body 100 includes: an image processing section 151 detecting a state of a travel face and a movement control section 152 controlling movement of the mobile body 100 according to a detected state of the travel face. The movement support section 250 includes: a traction wire connecting the movement support section 250 and mobile body 100 in a tensioned state and a winch control section 253 controlling tension of the traction wire according to a movement propriety state of the mobile body 100 and a movement direction of the mobile body 100.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5COPYRIGHT: (C)2018,JPO&INPIT【課題】準備作業を軽減するとともに作業時の操作を不要とし、怪我や事故などの危険や故障を回避する。【解決手段】走行面を移動しながら作業を行う移動体100と、移動体100の移動方向に交差する方向に移動可能に設けられ、移動体100の移動を支援する移動支援部250を有する支援装置200とを備えた移動ユニットであって、移動体100は、走行面の状態を検知する画像処理部151と、検知された走行面の状態に応じて、移動体100の移動を制御する移動制御部152と、を備え、移動支援部250は、移動支援部250と移動体100とを張力のかかった状態で接続する牽引ワイヤと、移動体100の移動可否状況と移動体100の移動方向とに応じて、牽引ワイヤの張力を制御するウィンチ制御部253と、を備える。【選択図】図5
