    摘要: A controller provided to an article transport device is configured to perform a transfer control and an oscillation damping control. The transfer control is a control for controlling an operation of an actuator while a travel portion is at rest to cause a first support portion to be moved with respect to the travel portion between a first position within a travel path and a second position for transferring an article between the first support portion and a transport target location which is one of a transport origin and a transport destination for the article. The oscillation damping control is a control for controlling the operation of the actuator based on a physical quantity detected by a detector, while the travel portion is traveling and the first support portion is supporting an article, to reduce the oscillation of the article supported by the first support portion that occurs while the travel portion is traveling.

    摘要: A sub-path is connected to a first main path and a second main path along which an article transport vehicle travels in a direction opposite to that of the first main path. The sub-path includes an intersection portion, a first upstream path connected to the first main path and the intersection portion, a second upstream path connected to the second main path and the intersection portion, a first downstream path connected to the intersection portion and the second main path, and a second downstream path connected to the intersection portion and the first main path. In the intersection portion, a first connection path that connects the first upstream path and the first downstream path, and a second connection path that connects the second upstream path and the second downstream path are provided so as to be located at the same height and to intersect each other.

    摘要: An article transport device and a work platform are movable along a travel path along a rack lateral direction. Article storage racks include a first storage rack installed on a first direction side along a rack fore and aft direction with respect to the travel path, and a second storage rack installed on a second direction side along the rack fore and aft direction with respect to the travel path. A platform storage section for storing the work platform is provided on the first direction side with respect to a trajectory of the article transport device. The platform storage section and the trajectory overlap with each other at least in part as seen along the rack fore and aft direction whereas the platform storage section and the second storage rack overlap with each other at least in part as seen along the rack fore and aft direction.

    摘要: A conveying-traveling-body-utilizing conveying device links conveying traveling bodies to each other where load bars are continuous to each other. A linked part is provided at one end of the load bar, and a linking hook is provided at the other end which can engage with and disengage from the linked part. The linking hook is pivotally supported and is vertically movable between a pre-engagement orientation separated upward from the linked part, with respect to an engaged orientation of covering the linked part from above, and a standby orientation tilted to a lowering limit from the engaged orientation by an urging force. When the linking hook is in the standby orientation, longitudinally adjacent conveying traveling bodies can approach each other to a connected state, where the respective load bars are abutted against each other, without the linking hook in the standby orientation and the linked part contacting each other.

    摘要: A position measurement portion manages a measurement target area by dividing the area into a plurality of section areas, and also manages, or keeps track of, an intra-area interfering object number which is the number of interfering objects in a given section area, independently for each of the plurality of the section areas. The travel controller determines, independently for each of the plurality of section areas, if the section area is in a congested state in which the intra-area interfering object number is greater than a set upper limit number, and selects a congested area travel mode as the travel mode when the travel controller is about to cause the vehicle to travel in a section area that is determined to be in the congested state.
