Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention relates to warehouse equipment, and particularly to warehouse equipment equipped with a stacker crane that is suspended from a ceiling rail and whose lower end engages with a floor rail for a steady rest and travels in a passageway between shelves. It is something.

1 and 2, the stacker crane 1 is suspended from a ceiling rail 4 in a passage 3 between shelves 2, and its lower end engages with a steady rest floor rail 5. It runs along the shelf 2 and includes a lifting platform 6 that can be raised and lowered freely, and a cargo receiving and transferring means 9 that transfers the cargo 8 between the platform 6, the shelf 2, and each loading platform 7. We are prepared.

Reference numeral 10 indicates a drive device for traveling, and reference numeral 11 indicates a drive device for raising and lowering the lifting platform 6.

In this type of conventional warehouse equipment, as shown in FIG. One steady-prevention floor rail 5 located at the center of the passageway 3 is fixedly supported, and the stacker crane 1 has a pair of left and right guide rollers 15 at both front and rear ends of the lower end frame 14 that sandwich the rail 5. It was supported on a vertical axis.

In such conventional warehouse equipment, when a worker walks in the aisle 3 for maintenance inspection, it is difficult to walk due to the presence of the rail supports 13 that cross the aisle 3 at regular intervals. There was also the risk of an accident such as someone tripping over timber 13 and falling down.

The present invention is aimed at solving such problems, and embodiments thereof will be described below based on illustrative drawings.

In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, vertical cross-section floor rails 16, 17 for steadying are provided on both sides of the passageway 3 close to the left and right shelves 2.

Both rails 16 and 17 are attached to mounting plates 18 and 19 attached to the lower end of each support column 12 of the shelf 2, and when the pitch of the support columns 12 is wide, the rails 16 and 17 are attached to the floor at an appropriate position between them. The rails 16, 17 can be supported on mounting plates 21 of further support means 20 attached to the surface.

Also, the joints 16a and 17a of the rails 16 and 17 are connected to the mounting plate 1.
It is desirable to attach the ends of the unit length rail material to the mounting plate 18.19 so that they are in position 8.19 butt against each other.

On the other hand, the lower end frame 14 of the stacker crane 1 has roller brackets 22 projecting left and right from both its front and rear ends.
are provided protrudingly, and guide rollers 23 close to the vertical surfaces 16b, 17b of the end rails 16, 17 of the four roller brackets 22 are respectively supported by vertical shafts.

The present invention can be implemented as described above, and its characteristics include a stacker crane that is suspended from a ceiling rail and whose lower end engages with a floor rail for a steady rest and travels in a passageway between shelves. In the warehouse facility equipped with the above-mentioned warehouse equipment, the above-mentioned floor rails are constituted by a pair of right and left rails each having a vertical cross-sectional shape and are respectively attached near the lower ends of the aisle-side supports of the shelves erected on both sides of the aisle.

According to such a configuration of the present invention, there is no rail support material that crosses the passage as in the past, and the worker can safely walk on the passage.

In addition, the pair of left and right rails with a cross-sectional vertical shape cover the feet of the shelf on the aisle side, and the pair of left and right rails can prevent articles that have fallen onto the aisle from rolling under the shelf.

Furthermore, since the pair of left and right steady rest rails do not have edges that protrude toward the center of the aisle or upward, it is safe even if a worker walking on the aisle falls and collides with the rails.
