To simplify a structure in a positioning station and a positioning system of a mobile body.SOLUTION: A power supply station (positioning station) 50 includes a first division part 51, a second division part 52 provided in a direction intersecting an extension direction of the first division part 51, and a guiding device (guide part) 54 provided on a track of a robot (mobile body) 10. The guiding device 54 is provided in an inclination direction from the first division part 51 toward the second division part 52 rather than a direction orthogonal to the extension direction, and has such a structure that movement of the robot 10 in the inclination direction becomes easier than movement in a direction other than the inclination direction, and makes the robot 10 move to the second division part 52 along the first division part 51.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5 【課題】移動体の位置決めステーションおよび移動体の位置決めシステムにおいて、構造の簡素化を図る。【解決手段】給電ステーション（位置決めステーション）５０において、第１仕切り部５１と、第１仕切り部５１の延出方向に対して交差する方向に沿って設けられる第２仕切り部５２と、ロボット（移動体）１０の走行路上に設けられる案内装置（案内部）５４とを備える。案内装置５４は、第１仕切り部５１からその延出方向に直交する方向よりも第２仕切り部５２側に向かう傾斜方向に沿って設けられ、ロボット１０が該傾斜方向に移動することが該傾斜方向以外の方向に移動することに比べて容易になる構造であり、ロボット１０を第１仕切り部５１に沿って第２仕切り部５２側に移動させる。【選択図】図５
