In the cover wrapping device 1 of the second means, the wrapping position of the cover body 4 is formed to be vertically movable.

The cover wrapping device 1 of the third means is height-adjustably connected to a fixing device erected at appropriate positions around the automobile.

As a fourth means, the rearmost end of the cover body 4 wound around the cover winding device 1 was formed so as to be freely joinable.

A means for solving the problem is that a support rod 5 is provided along the height direction of the cover body 4 at the rearmost end of the cover body 4 wrapped around the cover winding device 1 of the fifth means.

A means for solving the problem is that the cover body 4 in the sixth means is detachably attached to the cover wrapping device 1.
