DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0009] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0010] FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the function of a rack according to one embodiment of the present invention, where (a) is a diagram showing a case in which vertical insertion is possible, and (b) is a diagram showing a case in which horizontal insertion is possible.

[0011] As shown in Figure 1, for example, a rack 2 installed in a rack installation space 33 in a warehouse main body 3 of a warehouse 1 is configured to make it easy to move a storage object B in either a vertical insertion direction indicated by an arrow T or a horizontal insertion direction indicated by an arrow Y. The rack 2 is not manufactured as a dedicated vertical insertion or dedicated horizontal insertion, but is configured to be compatible with both vertical and horizontal insertion as described above.

[0012] Specifically, the rack 2 has a plurality of rollers 22 (described later) that assist in the movement of the storage object B, and is configured so that when the rollers 22 are assembled so that the extension direction of the rollers 22 is parallel to the short side direction of the shelf member 212 described later (Figure 1(a)), the above-mentioned vertical insertion can be performed smoothly, and when the rollers 22 are assembled so that the extension direction is parallel to the long side direction (Figure 1(b)), the above-mentioned horizontal insertion can be performed smoothly. Such a rack 2 is configured to include a rack body 21 and a plurality of rollers 22.

[0013] 1 indicates the up-down direction of rack 2. Furthermore, the "front-rear" arrow indicates the front-rear direction of rack 2 and the longitudinal direction of shelf member 212 described later. Furthermore, the "left-right" arrow indicates the left-right direction of rack 2 and the transverse direction of shelf member 212.

[0014] FIG. 2 is a plan view of a rack body constituting the rack of FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of the portion indicated by the arrow A1 in FIG. 2, FIG. 4 is a front view of a two-tiered rack body, and FIG. 5 is a front view of a three-tiered rack body. 6 is a right side view of a two-tiered rack body, FIG. 7 is a right side view of a three-tiered rack body, and FIG. 8 is an enlarged view of the areas indicated by arrows A2 to A4 in FIGS. In the following description, reference will be made to FIGS. 1 to 8 as appropriate.

[0015] The rack body 21 is configured to include a plurality of support members 211, a plurality of shelf members 212, a plurality of anti-sway members 213, and a plurality of fall prevention stoppers 214.

[0016] The plurality of support members 211 are metal rods that extend straight in the vertical direction, and here, four of the same shape are used. The four support members 211 are disposed at the four corner positions of the shelf member 212 .

[0017] Two shelf members 212 of the same shape are used when the rack 2 is a two-tier type as shown in Figures 4 and 6, and three shelf members 212 of the same shape are used when the rack 2 is a three-tier type as shown in Figures 5 and 7. Since the storage object B here has a shape of, for example, a rectangular parallelepiped, the shelf member 212 is formed in a rectangular shape in a plan view.

[0018] The shelf member 212 has two exterior frames 212a arranged at a predetermined interval in the short direction, two exterior frames 212b arranged at a predetermined interval in the long direction, four first frame portions 212c, and eight second frame portions 212d in total, four on each side. The two exterior frames 212a and the two exterior frames 222b form an outer frame that defines the outer shape of the shelf member 212. The four first frame portions 212c are disposed so as to be lined up consecutively along the longitudinal direction.

[0019] Of the eight second frame portions 212d, four are arranged between the four first frame portions 212c and one of the outer frames 212a, and the remaining four are arranged between the four first frame portions 212c and the other outer frame 212a. The four first frame portions 212c basically have the same configuration, and each has four first frames 212e and is formed in a square. Here, the four first frame portions 212c are configured so that adjacent ones share the first frame 212e.

[0020] A plurality of first bearing portions 212f are formed at a predetermined pitch on the plurality of first frames 212e. The plurality of first bearing portions 212f are portions for receiving the rotating shafts 222 of the rollers 22, and are formed, for example, in U-shaped grooves cut out from top to bottom (see FIG. 8).

[0021] The plurality of first bearing portions 212f are formed in grooves having a depth such that the roller body 221 of the roller 22 protrudes upward from the first frame 212e when the rotating shaft 222 is received therein. Here, four of the first bearing portions 212f are formed in one first frame 212e (this number is merely an example).

[0022] The eight second frame portions 212d basically have the same configuration, have the second frame 212g, and are formed into a long and narrow rectangle in the longitudinal direction. The eight second frame portions 212d are configured to share the first frame 212e of the first frame portion 212c and the outer frame 212a.

[0023] Here, the eight second frame portions 212d are configured so that adjacent ones share the second frame 212g. The second frame 212g is formed with one second bearing portion 212h having the same shape as the first frame 212e (see FIG. 8; the number is merely an example).

[0024] The multiple anti-vibration members 213 are, for example, rod-shaped members used to ensure the strength of the rack body 21 (to regulate distortion), and when performing the above-mentioned vertical insertion, they are assembled so as to connect two support members 211 along the longitudinal direction (see Figures 4 and 5). When the above-mentioned horizontal insertion is performed, the two support members 211 are assembled so as to be connected along the short side direction (not shown in Figs. 6 and 7).

[0025] When the storage object B is inserted vertically, the multiple fall prevention stoppers 214 are positioned in the outer frame 212b at the rear position to prevent the storage object B from falling, and when the storage object B is inserted horizontally, the multiple fall prevention stoppers 214 are positioned in the outer frame 212a at the rear position to prevent the storage object B from falling. The drop prevention stopper 214 may be structured to be detachable or slidable, and may be disposed on the outer frame 212b or the outer frame 212a in a front position opposite to the above-mentioned rear position.

[0026] 9A and 9B are diagrams of rollers constituting the rack of FIG. 1, where (a) is a front view of the roller and (b) is a side view of the roller. FIG. 10 is a plan view of an example of a rack that allows vertical insertion, and FIG. 11 is a perspective view of the example of a rack that allows vertical insertion. FIG. 12 is a plan view of an example of a rack that allows lateral insertion, and FIG. 13 is a perspective view of an example of a rack that allows lateral insertion.

[0027] In FIG. 9, the plurality of rollers 22 are configured to include a roller body 221, a rotating shaft 222, and a rotating shaft stopper 223. The roller body 221 is formed in a cylindrical shape, and is assembled to be rotatable around the axis of the rotation shaft 222 . The rotation shaft stopper 223 is provided to restrict the movement of the roller 22 mounted to the first bearing portion 212f and the second bearing portion 212h.

[0028] When the above-mentioned vertical insertion is performed, the rollers 22 are assembled in positions as shown in, for example, FIGS. In addition, when the above-mentioned lateral insertion is performed, the rollers 22 are adapted to be assembled in positions as shown in, for example, FIGS.

[0029] As explained above with reference to Figures 1 to 13, the rack 2 has the above-mentioned configuration and structure, and therefore can accommodate both vertical and horizontal insertion of storage items B, as shown in Figure 1. In addition, the rack 2 has four first frame portions 212c and eight second frame portions 212d, and multiple rollers 22 are arranged at appropriate positions, so that the stored item B can be moved smoothly, especially when the above-mentioned lateral insertion is performed.

[0030] So far, one embodiment of the present invention has been described, but the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and modifications, improvements, etc. that can achieve the object of the present invention are considered to be included in the present invention.

[0031] In the above embodiment, the storage objects B are moved in the same direction on each tier, but this is not limited to the above. That is, by changing the assembly of the rollers 22, for example, the first tier may be inserted vertically and the second tier may be inserted horizontally (the third tier may also be inserted horizontally, etc.).

[0032] In the above embodiment, the storage object B has a rectangular parallelepiped shape, but this is not limited to this. That is, the storage object B may be, for example, a shallow tray that has a rectangular shape in a plan view. The storage object B may also be a cube or the like. Although not particularly limited, storage object B is preferably a coffin for storing a corpse, the above-mentioned shallow tray for placing a corpse, or a transport box used at manufacturing sites or for transporting products.

[0033] In the above-described embodiment, although not specifically indicated with a reference symbol, a third frame portion (third frame portion) is provided at the location of the outer frame 212b, and a third bearing portion formed in the third frame of this third frame portion may be formed with a third bearing portion to which roller 22 can be assembled.
