Description

  The present invention includes an article storage shelf including an article storage unit, a traveling carriage that travels on a floor in a transport vehicle moving space in front of the article storage shelf, and an article transfer device that is supported by the traveling carriage so as to be movable up and down. An article transport vehicle and exhaust air after flowing purified air from the back side of the article storage section toward the transport vehicle moving space so as to pass through the article storage section and flowing downward in the transport vehicle moving space Purified air ventilation means for flowing so as to exhaust from the section, and the article storage section in the article storage shelf is partitioned in a state where air cannot flow, and the transport vehicle moving space communicates in a state where air can flow And an air flow space formed over the entire length or substantially the entire length of the article storage shelf below the article storage section, and at the end in the shelf width direction of the transport vehicle movement space, and the transport vehicle. Moving sky The relates to an article storage facility in which the partition wall is provided to partition the outside.

Such an article storage facility is configured such that an article transporting vehicle travels along the width direction of an article storage shelf and an article transfer device is moved up and down to stack a glass substrate used for a liquid crystal display or a plasma display. The container to be stored is transported as an article between the article storage unit and the article processing apparatus for processing the glass substrate.
Then, after providing purified air ventilation means, the purified air is caused to flow from the back side of the article storage unit toward the transport vehicle moving space so as to pass through the product storage unit and to flow downward in the transport vehicle moving space. By causing the exhaust to flow from the exhaust unit, dust that has rolled up from the floor side when the article transport vehicle travels in the transport vehicle moving space does not easily flow backward from the transport vehicle moving space to the article storage unit side. Thus, the article storage unit is configured to be maintained in a dust-free environment.
Further, by providing an air flow space, when the article transport vehicle travels, the purified air that has been compressed on the front side in the travel direction of the traveling carriage can easily flow into the air flow space on the lateral side of the traveling carriage. Even if the purified air flowing through the purified air ventilation means is small, it is possible to suppress the dust from rolling up on the front side of the traveling carriage caused by the purified air flowing above the traveling carriage. The article storage unit can be maintained in a dust-free environment (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

  However, in the above-described conventional article storage facility, part of the purified air that has flowed from the transport vehicle moving space to the air flow space due to the travel of the goods transport vehicle flows obliquely forward toward the back of the air flow space. In addition, the purified air in the air flow space is gradually compressed as the traveling article transport vehicle approaches the front end portion in the vehicle travel direction (shelf width direction) in the air flow space. As the purified air expanded to the transport vehicle moving space is greatly expanded and the purified air expanded into the transport vehicle moving space is guided upward by the partition wall provided at the end of the transport vehicle moving space, the floor side Therefore, it is necessary to increase the wind force of the purified air flowing in the purified air ventilation means in order to maintain the article storage portion in an environment with little dust.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and the object thereof is to easily maintain the article storage portion in an environment with little dust even if the wind power of the purified air flowing by the purified air ventilation means is small. The object is to provide an article storage facility.

  In order to achieve this object, an article storage facility according to the present invention includes an article storage shelf including an article storage unit, a traveling carriage that travels on a floor portion in a transport vehicle moving space in front of the article storage shelf, and the traveling carriage. An article transfer vehicle including an article transfer device supported in a freely movable manner, and flowing purified air from the back side of the article storage unit toward the transfer vehicle moving space so as to pass through the article storage unit and Purified air ventilation means for flowing downward in the transport vehicle moving space and then exhausting from the exhaust section, and the article storage section in the article storage shelf are partitioned in a state incapable of air flow and the transport vehicle The movement space communicates with the air flowable state, the air flow space formed under the article storage portion over the entire length or substantially the entire length of the article storage shelf, and the transport vehicle moving space. Provided with a partition wall for partitioning the transport vehicle moving space from the outside, wherein the first characteristic configuration is at least an end in the shelf width direction in the air flow space. It exists in the point by which the rectification | straightening member extended in a shelf front-back width direction with the attitude | position along an up-down direction is provided in the part side location.

  That is, since the rectifying member extending in the longitudinal direction of the shelf in a posture along the vertical direction is provided at least at the end side portion in the horizontal direction of the shelf in the air flow space, the purified air is supplied to the rectification member in the air flow space. The flow of air to the front side in the vehicle traveling direction is suppressed more and the purified air flowing to the front end portion in the vehicle traveling direction (shelf width direction) in the air flow space can be reduced. At the front end portion in the vehicle traveling direction (shelf width direction) in the vehicle, it is possible to suppress the compressed air in the air flow space from being gradually compressed as the traveling article transport vehicle approaches. Even if the wind of the purified air flowing through the purified air ventilation means is small, the expansion of the air into the transport vehicle moving space is reduced, the dust on the floor side is difficult to wind up, and the article storage unit We shall easily maintained less environmental dust, have been led to be able to provide easy article storage facility maintains the article storage portion to less environmental dust.

  The second characteristic configuration of the article storage facility according to the present invention is that, in the first characteristic configuration, a plurality of the rectifying members are provided in a state of being arranged in the shelf width direction.

  That is, since a plurality of rectifying members are provided in a state in which the rectifying members are arranged in the width direction of the shelf, the plurality of rectifying members may cause the purified air to flow more forward in the vehicle traveling direction than the rectifying member in the air flow space. By being suppressed in a dispersed manner, it is possible to prevent the purified air from being compressed on the rear side in the vehicle traveling direction of each rectifying member, so that the expansion of the purified air into the transport vehicle moving space is reduced, and the floor Since it is possible to suppress the dust on the part side from being rolled up, it is easy to maintain the article storage part in an environment with little dust even if the wind power of the purified air flowing in the purified air ventilation means is small. Thus, it has become possible to provide an article storage facility that can easily maintain the article storage portion in an environment with little dust even if the wind force of the purified air flowing by the purified air ventilation means is small.

  The third characteristic configuration of the article storage facility according to the present invention is the second characteristic configuration, wherein the end-side rectifying member located on the end side in the shelf width direction of the plurality of rectifying members is ventilated. A central rectifying member that is formed in a porous shape and is located closer to the center side in the lateral width direction of the shelf than the end rectifying member of the plurality of rectifying members is from the end rectifying member. However, it is formed in a porous shape with a small aperture ratio that allows ventilation or non-ventilation that does not allow ventilation.

That is, the purified air compressed at the front end portion in the vehicle travel direction of the end side rectification member in the air flow space can flow to the rear side in the vehicle travel direction through the end side rectification member. The purified air can be prevented from being compressed at the front end portion in the vehicle traveling direction in the air flowing space, and the purified air flowing toward the front end portion in the vehicle traveling direction in the air flowing space is Since the flow to the front side in the vehicle traveling direction is suppressed by the center side rectifying member, it is possible to suppress the purified air from being compressed in the vehicle traveling direction front side from the central side rectifying member.
Therefore, by providing the end-side rectifying member and the central-side rectifying member, the purified air can be prevented from being compressed at the front end portion in the vehicle traveling direction in the air flow space. Since the expansion of the air into the transport vehicle moving space is reduced and the dust on the floor portion side can be prevented from being rolled up, the article storage portion even if the purified air flowing through the purified air ventilation means is small Is provided in an environment where there is little dust, and thus the article storage facility can easily maintain the article storage part in an environment where there is little dust even if the wind power of the purified air flowing in the purified air ventilation means is small. I was able to do it.

  According to a fourth characteristic configuration of the article storage facility according to the present invention, in the third characteristic configuration, the end-side rectifying member is formed to have a length that is the same as or substantially the same as a length in the front-rear width direction of the air flow space. The center-side rectifying member is formed shorter than the end-side rectifying member in the front-rear width direction and is opposite to the side where the transport vehicle moving space in the front-rear width direction is located in the air flow space. It is in the point provided in the state biased to the side.

That is, the end side rectifying member is formed to have the same or substantially the same length as the length of the air flow space in the front-rear width direction of the shelf. In the air flow space, the amount of purified air flowing to the front end portion in the vehicle running direction (shelf width direction) is reduced, and the end portion of the end side rectifying member in the front end portion in the vehicle running direction is reduced. Since the compressed purified air can be flowed to the rear side in the vehicle traveling direction through the end side rectifying member, the purified air is compressed at the front end portion in the vehicle traveling direction in the air flow space. Can be suppressed.
Further, the center side rectifying member is formed shorter in the longitudinal direction of the shelf than the end side rectifying member, and is biased to the side opposite to the side where the conveyance vehicle moving space in the longitudinal direction of the shelf is located in the air flow space. Since the center side rectifying member is not provided on the transport vehicle moving space side in the front-rear width direction of the shelf in the transport vehicle moving space, the purified air is compressed and the compressed air is compressed. The expansion of the purified air into the transport vehicle moving space can be reduced, and the center side rectification is performed on the back side of the transport vehicle moving space opposite to the transport vehicle moving space side in the width direction of the shelf. Since the purified air tends to be compressed by the member, for example, when the exhaust part of the purified air ventilation means is provided in the inner part of the air flow space, the compressed air in the compressed state is easily discharged from the discharge part. Small expansion to transport vehicle movement space It is possible to.
Therefore, by providing the end-side rectifying member and the central-side rectifying member, it is possible to effectively suppress the purified air from being compressed in the air flow space and to reduce the expansion of the purified air into the transport vehicle moving space. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the dust on the floor side from being rolled up, and even if the purified air flowing in the purified air ventilation means is small, the article storage unit is maintained in a dust-free environment. Therefore, even when the wind force of the purified air flowing by the purified air ventilation means is small, it is possible to provide an article storage facility that can easily maintain the article storage portion in an environment with little dust.

  According to a fifth characteristic configuration of the article storage facility according to the present invention, in the third or fourth characteristic configuration, the central rectifying member is ventilated on a side where the conveyance vehicle moving space in the width direction of the shelf is located. It is formed in a possible porous shape, and the portion on the opposite side to the side where the transport vehicle moving space is located is formed in a non-porous shape that cannot be vented.

  That is, the central side rectifying member is formed in a porous shape in which the portion on the side where the transport vehicle moving space in the longitudinal direction of the shelf is located can be ventilated, and the portion on the side opposite to the side where the transport vehicle moving space is located Is formed in a non-porous shape that cannot be ventilated, so on the transport vehicle moving space side in the front-rear width direction of the transport vehicle moving space, purification is performed on the side where the transport vehicle moving space of the central rectifying member is located. Since the purified air is less likely to be compressed because the air is ventilated, the expansion of the purified air into the transport vehicle moving space can be reduced, and the transport vehicle moving space side in the front-rear width direction of the shelf On the far side opposite to the side of the air flow space, the purified air is likely to be compressed without being ventilated at the part opposite to the side where the transport vehicle moving space of the central rectifying member is located. In the case where the exhaust part of the purified air ventilation means is provided, The purified air can be easily discharged from the discharge section, and the expansion of the purified air into the transport vehicle moving space can be reduced, so that the dust on the floor side can be prevented from being rolled up, and the purified air ventilation means can be used. Even if the wind force of the purified air that flows is small, it is easy to maintain the article storage part in an environment with little dust, and therefore the article storage part even if the wind force of the purified air flowing in the purified air ventilation means is small It is possible to provide an article storage facility that can be easily maintained in a dust-free environment.

  The sixth feature configuration of the article storage facility according to the present invention is the travel according to any one of the first to fifth feature configurations, in which the rectifying member is located at an end in a lateral width direction of the transport vehicle moving space. It exists in the point provided in the center part side of a shelf width direction rather than a trolley | bogie.

  That is, when the article transport vehicle travels in the transport vehicle moving space, the purified air that is in the compressed state on the front side in the vehicle traveling direction of the traveling carriage is the front side in the vehicle traveling direction as the article transport vehicle decelerates or stops. A part of the inflated purified air is guided in the longitudinal direction of the shelf by the partition wall provided at the end of the transport vehicle moving space and flows into the air flow space. The space between the straightening member and the front end portion in the vehicle traveling direction of the transport vehicle moving space is larger than the traveling cart located at the end in the width direction of the shelf. Therefore, the purified air that has flowed into the air flow space is less likely to be compressed, and the expansion of the purified air into the transport vehicle moving space can be reduced, thereby suppressing the dust on the floor side from being rolled up. Can be purified Even if the wind force of the purified air that is flowed by the air ventilation means is small, it is easy to maintain the article storage part in a dust-free environment, and therefore the wind force of the purified air that is flowed by the purified air ventilation means is small. In addition, it has become possible to provide an article storage facility that can easily maintain the article storage portion in an environment with little dust.

  A seventh characteristic configuration of the article storage facility according to the present invention is the end side portion in the lateral width direction of the traveling carriage as viewed in the traveling direction of the article transporting vehicle in any one of the first to sixth characteristic configurations. The article storage unit is in a state of being protruded into the transport vehicle moving space from an end portion on the transport vehicle moving space side at the upper end side of the air flow space and at the same height as or higher than the height of the upper portion of the air flow space. The air guide body formed in the state covering the full length of the horizontal direction of a shelf or the substantially full length exists in the point provided.

  That is, since the air guide body is provided, the purified air hardly flows from the floor side to the upper side of the air guide body, and the air flow of the purified air flowing into the air flow space by the traveling of the article transport vehicle is disturbed. Since it is possible to suppress the dust from being rolled up on the lateral side and the rear side of the traveling carriage caused by this, even if the wind force of the purified air flowing in the purified air ventilation means is small, the article storage portion has less dust. Thus, it is possible to provide an article storage facility that can easily maintain the article storage portion in an environment with little dust even if the wind force of the purified air flowing by the purified air ventilation means is small. It was.

  An eighth characteristic configuration of the article storage facility according to the present invention is the seventh characteristic configuration, wherein an end side portion in the shelf width direction of the air guide body is larger toward the inside of the transport vehicle moving space than other portions. It is in the point formed in the state which protrudes.

  That is, when the article transport vehicle travels in the transport vehicle moving space, the purified air that is compressed on the front side in the vehicle travel direction of the traveling carriage when the article transport vehicle travels in the transport vehicle moving space is As the vehicle decelerates or stops, it expands forward in the vehicle traveling direction, and a part of the expanded purified air is guided upward by the partition wall, and accordingly, dust on the floor side is rolled up. However, since the end side portion of the shelf width portion of the air guide body is formed so as to protrude more greatly into the transport vehicle moving space than the other portions, the shelf width of the transport vehicle moving space is At the direction end, the purified air guided upward by the partition wall can be prevented from flowing upward from the air guide body, and therefore, at the end of the conveyance vehicle moving space at the end in the width direction of the shelf, The dust is rolled up It has led to it is possible to provide an article storage facility that it is possible to suppress the Rukoto.

  A ninth feature configuration of the article storage facility according to the present invention is any one of the first to eighth feature configurations, wherein both ends of the traveling carriage in the vehicle traveling direction are opened so that air can enter and exit, and An air flow passage communicating between the openings so that air can flow is formed in the traveling carriage.

  That is, since an air flow passage is formed in the traveling carriage, the amount of purified air that is compressed on the front side of the traveling carriage in the vehicle traveling direction is small, and the amount of purified air that flows above the traveling carriage and the air flow are reduced. Since the amount of purified air flowing into the space can be reduced, dust is rolled up on the front side of the traveling carriage caused by the purified air flowing on the upper side of the traveling carriage, and flows into the air flowing space. Since it is possible to suppress the dust from being rolled up on the lateral side or the rear side of the traveling carriage caused by the turbulent flow of the purified air being disturbed by the travel of the article transport vehicle, the purification air that is flowed by the purified air ventilation means Even if the wind force of the air is small, it becomes easy to maintain the article storage part in an environment with little dust. Therefore, even if the purified air flowing through the purified air ventilation means is small, the article storage part is less dusty. It has led to it is possible to provide an easy article storage facility to maintain the stomach environment.

  A tenth characteristic configuration of the article storage facility according to the present invention is that, in the ninth characteristic configuration, the air flow passage is formed in a concave groove shape opening downward in a bottom portion of the traveling carriage.

  That is, since the air flow passage is formed in a concave groove shape that opens downward at the bottom of the traveling carriage, the air flow passage only needs to form a concave groove that opens downward at the bottom of the traveling carriage. Since the purified air flowing through the air flow passage does not diffuse upward, the air flow passage has a configuration of a traveling carriage having an air flow passage in which the purified air is difficult to diffuse upward. It is possible to provide simplification, and thus it is possible to provide an article storage facility capable of simplifying the configuration of a traveling carriage in which an air flow passage in which purified air does not easily diffuse upward is formed. It came.

  The eleventh characteristic configuration of the article storage facility according to the present invention is that, in the ninth or tenth characteristic configuration, a rectifying plate extending in the vehicle traveling direction in a posture along the vertical direction is provided in the air flow passage. is there.

  That is, since the air flow passage is provided with a rectifying plate extending in the vehicle traveling direction in a posture along the vertical direction, the purified air flowing in the air flow passage can be rectified into a laminar flow aligned in the vehicle lateral width direction. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the dust from rolling up from the floor side by the purified air discharged from the air flow passage, and the dust from the floor portion to be swung up by the purified air discharged from the air flow passage. It has come to be able to provide an article storage facility that can suppress the above.

  A twelfth characteristic configuration of the article storage facility according to the present invention is that, in any one of the first to eleventh characteristic configurations, each of both end portions in the vehicle traveling direction of the traveling carriage has its lower portion as an upper portion. Further, it is formed in a state in which it is recessed more inwardly of the vehicle and in a state of being inclined such that the upper surface of the upper part becomes higher as it is located on the inner side of the vehicle.

  That is, when the article transport vehicle travels in the transport vehicle moving space, the purified air that is in the compressed state on the front side in the vehicle travel direction of the traveling carriage moves forward in the vehicle travel direction as the article transport vehicle decelerates or stops. A part of the inflated purified air is guided upward by another object such as a partition wall, and as a result, dust on the floor side is rolled up. Each of the both end portions in the traveling direction is inclined so that the lower portion thereof is recessed inward of the vehicle inward of the upper portion, and the upper surface of the upper portion becomes higher as the vehicle is positioned inward of the vehicle. The purified air on the front side in the vehicle traveling direction of the traveling carriage is restricted to flow above the traveling carriage in the lower part of the traveling carriage, but travels in the upper part of the traveling carriage. Because it is guided above the carriage, Since the purified air is less likely to be compressed in the vehicle traveling direction front side of the carriage, it is possible to prevent the dust on the floor side from being rolled up when the traveling carriage is decelerated or stopped, and the article transport vehicle is decelerated or reduced. As a result, it is possible to provide an article storage facility capable of suppressing the dust on the floor side from being rolled up as it stops.
