Abstract

Provided is an article transfer device capable of preventing a collision of articles within a shelf and the article transfer device when taking out the articles within the shelf, even if a plurality of articles are stored in the shelf. In this device, the articles are transferred between a track traveling body traveling on a track and the shelf provided along the track. The shelf is capable of storing the plurality of articles along the track. An article clamping means to freely advance and retreat toward the shelf is provided in the track traveling body. Object sensing sensors for confirming presence or absence of the articles in an advancing direction of the article clamping means directing to the inside of the shelf are provided in the article clamping means.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an article conveying device, and in particular to a device for conveying articles between racks arranged along the rail with a rail conveying body moving along the rail. Background technique [0002] Traditionally, automated warehouses have been used in certain factories or warehouses in order to reduce or efficiently utilize storage space within such factories or warehouses. This automatic warehouse is equipped with a palletizing crane for loading or unloading items. [0003] For example, a stacking crane 50 shown in FIG. 7 has a moving frame 53 and a bracket 55 . The mobile frame 53 moves back and forth along the mobile guide rail 51 on the ground and the mobile guide rail 52 on the ceiling. The carriage 55 moves up and down along a pair of uprights extending from the moving frame 53 . [0004] Carriage 55 includes sliding forks 56 operable to move toward and away from shelves 57 shown in FIG. 8 . Sliding forks 56...
