no. 1 Embodiment approach 〕

[0033] A first embodiment of a ceiling conveyance facility using the article conveyance facility according to the present invention will be described based on the drawings. The ceiling conveyance facility of this embodiment is installed in glass substrate manufacturing facilities, semiconductor component manufacturing facilities, and the like. In such a manufacturing facility, since the article processing device and the article storage device are installed on the ground, in order to ensure the installation space, the traveling rail is arranged in a state suspended from the ceiling, and the article transport vehicle is guided by the traveling rail. The ceiling transport vehicle 1 that leads to advance and move constitutes. figure 1 This is a cross-sectional view showing the ceiling transport vehicle 1 and a pair of travel rails 2 a and 2 b serving as a travel rail 2 for guiding the travel of the ceiling transport vehicle 1 as viewed in the traveling direction of the ceiling tra...

Abstract

The invention provides an article transport facility which can reduce the load applied to a guide part and a guided part. An article transport vehicle (1) comprises a transverse movement mechanism which enables an article holding part (8) to move in the direction of the transverse width of a vehicle body relative to a travel part (5). A control part (H) controlling the movement of the article transport vehicle (1) is configured to control the movement of the transverse movement mechanism to make the article holding part (8) be in a normal travel state of locating below the middle position between a pair of travel rails (2) when the article transport vehicle (1) travels on the outside of an intersecting part (C) and to make the article holding part (8) be in an intersecting part travel state of changing from the position below the middle position between the pair of travel rails (2) to the position located on one side far away from the intersecting side travel rail in the direction of the transverse width of the vehicle body when the article transport vehicle (1) moves in the intersecting part (C).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to ceiling conveying type article conveying equipment. Background technique [0002] There is an article conveying facility that sets a travel route to pass through a plurality of stations for loading and unloading articles, and has a ceiling conveyance vehicle that carries articles in and out of the plurality of stations along the travel route (for example, refer to Patent Document 1: Special Publication No. 2002-87250). [0003] In the article conveyance facility of Patent Document 1, the traveling path intersects an intersecting path which is another traveling path at an intersection portion. Of the pair of travel rails of the travel route, the intersecting side travel rail that is the side on which the intersecting route is located is cut in the travel direction to form a track non-existing section. The track-free section is required for the intermediate portion of the ceiling transport vehicle to pass through the in...
