In the process of storing the traffic cones, the traffic cones sequentially transport the three traffic cones to a position opposite to the storage space 710 by the horizontal transport belt 500. Then, the robot 840 of the traffic cone transfer assembly moves down to grab the traffic cone and moves one level of the lower storage space 710. At the same time, the first detecting element 30 detects the position of the stop 713 on the conveyor belt 712, so that the traffic cone can be placed directly between the two stop 713 when it is placed. If the position is not suitable, the driving device 900 drives the roller to move, and further drives the transmission flat belt 712 to rotate. The traffic cone is then placed on the flat conveyor belt 712 by means of the transfer assembly, with the bottom outer edge of the traffic cone placed between the two stops 713, and with the front end of the traffic cone supported by the support bracket 76, the traffic cone is always in a horizontal position. When the horizontal conveyor 500 places a second set of traffic cones in corresponding locations of the storage space 710, the transfer assembly again grabs the traffic cones to place them in the second level of the storage space 710.
