2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a storage section is formed by connecting a storage rail to an end of a main rail provided on a ceiling of a gymnasium, a banquet room, or the like, and a large number of hanging movable panels which move along the main rail. In the storage portion, such that the wide surfaces of the adjacent moving panels face each other, and are stored in a substantially parallel manner.
Various inventions have been invented in which the movable panel is sequentially extended from the stored state and moved so that the wide surface of the movable panel is along the longitudinal direction of the main rail.

As one prior art, for example, in German Patent No. 2653328, a movable panel is configured to be movable by being suspended from a main rail via a suspension that is rotatable around a vertical axis at an upper end of a movable panel. A driving device is mounted on the moving panel itself, and the driving device is configured to be self-propelled along the main rail. When the moving panel is moved between the storage section and the main rail, the connecting rail is rotatable horizontally between the storage panel and the main rail. A configuration for changing the direction of the hanging support of the movable panel is disclosed.

In this configuration, although a special driving device is not required for the storage section, a self-propelled device is required for each movable panel, and there is a problem that the manufacturing cost is high. In Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 51-90736, a pair of front and rear suspension members fixed to the upper end of a movable panel are configured to be movable along a main rail having a horizontal H-shaped cross section, while being orthogonal to the main rail in plan view. An apparatus for storing a movable panel in a storage section provided with two parallel storage rails, comprising: a transport vehicle driven to reciprocate along the pair of storage rails; and a plurality of suspension rails movable by the transport vehicle. And a plurality of support rails arranged in parallel with the main rail, a plurality of support rails supporting the lower end of the movable panel suspended on each suspension rail, and arranged in parallel with the suspension rail, And an endless chain mechanism for moving the lower part of the movable panel that moves and drives the movable panel in synchronization with the carrier. A locking shaft is projected at a front end of each movable panel, and a locking shaft of a succeeding movable panel is formed at a rear end. Hooks The moving panel on the side close to the storage section on the main rail and the moving panel following it are connected by the hooks and the locking shaft, respectively, and run the rearmost moving panel along the main rail by itself. A configuration in which the vehicle is pushed by an induction vehicle is proposed.

[0005] According to this configuration, when the movable panel is carried in / out of the storage section, the timing of movement / stop of the guided vehicle body moving along the main rail is synchronized with the timing of forward / backward movement of the carrier on the storage rail. And the control becomes complicated. Furthermore, these types have a problem that they cannot be applied to a movable panel that manually moves the movable panel from a position where the storage section exits the storage section to a partition position along the main rail.

Accordingly, the present applicant has previously disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 5-156.
In Japanese Patent Publication No. 866, the movable panel is manually moved along the main rail, temporarily stopped before the storage section, and the movable panel is moved along the longitudinal direction of the main rail at a position adjacent to the main rail and the storage section. It has been proposed to provide a transport device forcibly moving only a short section beside the main rail.
