Embodiment Construction

[0036] An embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings 1-10.

[0037] Figure 7Shown is a product storage facility for storing several containers therein, the system may be a combination pod or loop with front openings. The storage facility 1 is composed of a pair of front and rear racks 3 for supporting containers 2 and a loader / unloader 4 for loading and unloading containers 2 onto and from the racks 3 .

[0038] Such as Figure 4a and 4b As shown, each container 2 consists of a housing 5 containing several semiconductors (wafers), a neck 6 and a head 7 . The neck 6 connects the case 5 and the head 7 together and is smaller (narrower) in width than the case 5 and the head 7 . The head 7 and the housing 5 form a joint gap 8 around the neck 6 therebetween. The joint gap 8 is usually used for the robot or transfer machine to catch or hold the container 2 when the container 2 is being handled. Such as i...

Abstract

The object of the present invention is to reduce the number of shelves in a storage facility for supporting articles, such as containers. The storage device comprises a shelf (12) supporting a container (2) having an engagement means (8) formed in its upper part. The storage device also includes a loading / unloading machine for loading and unloading the containers (2) onto and from the racks (12). The shelf (12) includes a platform (20) formed on its upper side, on which the container 2 can be placed, and the shelf (12) also includes a pair of left and right joint parts (16) formed on its lower side, which can be used to engage with the engaging means (8) of the container (2) to fix the container (2) hanging on the shelf (12). The engaging means (8) and the pair of engaging portions are engageable and disengageable from each other in the direction of loading and unloading of the container (2).

Description

(1) Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a product storage device for handling a container as a product that can accommodate semiconductors (wafers). (2) Background technology [0002] A conventional product storage facility of this type includes a rack in which products are stored and a loading / unloading machine for loading and unloading the rack. [0003] Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 5-294410 discloses a loading / unloading machine comprising a vehicle that runs along the front of the rack, a column standing on the vehicle, and an elevator supported and guided by the column and an extender / retractor carried or conveyed by an elevator. The lift includes a turntable. [0004] The extender / retractor consists of a folding arm mounted on the rotating table of the elevator and a product support (fork) connected to the free end of the folding arm. Rotation of the turntable allows the folding arm to extend and return the product support relative to the shelf. ...
