PURPOSE: To efficiently convert the interval of plural works, by equipping plural slide quantity regulating means which regulate each slide quantities of 1st, 2nd slide member group by each slide means in the differential quantity of a 2nd pitch space and 1st pitch space.
CONSTITUTION: A driving signal is output to a cylinder 530 for pitch conversion when the receiving of each top boards 101, 102 is completed, and a piston 531 is extended to a 2nd stopper member 5112 side. At this time, the 2nd slide member 5252 is slided to the 2nd stopper member 5112 side. When a 2nd foot part 5322 is abutted on the 2nd stopper member 5112, the main body of the cylinder 530 for pitch conversion is moved to a 1st stopper member 5111 side by receiving the reaction forces of the piston 531 and 2nd stopper member 5112. At this time, the 1st slide member 5251 is slided to the 1st stopper member 5111 side until the 1st foot part 5321 is abutted on the 1st stopper member 511.
