2）、商品搬出動作が終了する。First, when the product 3 is selected (Step 1), a product selection signal is output from the main control device 12 (Step 2), and the drive control device 10 drives the product unloading device 6 and moves the tray 5 (Step 1). Step 3). Each position detecting device 9 is operated by the movement of the tray 5 and sequentially outputs a detection signal (step 4). The drive control device 10 stops the tray 5 when the detection signal of the product storage device 1 to be carried out is received. (Step 5), the horizontal feeder 2 is driven (Step 6). When the tray 5 stops at a predetermined place in the product storage device 1, the interlocked rotation preventing device 8 is released, and the product 3 is received from the product storage device 1 via the product detection device 7 by the driving of the horizontal feed device 2. And the product detection device 7 outputs a detection signal (step 7). Based on the detection signal, the main control device 12 causes the drive control device 10 to stop the horizontal feed device 2 (step 8) and drive the product unloading device 6. Further, the tray 5 is moved to the product outlet 4 to carry out the product 3 (step 9). After the product is carried out, the main controller 12 drives the horizontal feeder 2 again by the drive controller 10 (step 10). When the next conveyed product reaches the product detection device 7 and the product detection device 7 outputs a detection signal (step 11), the main control device 12 causes the drive control device 10 to stop the horizontal feed device 2 (step 1).
2), the product unloading operation ends.
