[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a product such as clothing is hung on a hanger having a hook suspended from a transport rail, and the hanger product transported on the transport rail is transported at a terminal end of a take-out rail branched from the transport rail. Is transported to a desired location by the transport vehicle on a transport rod provided in a logistics system in the apparel industry.

[0003] Both ends of the transfer rod provided on the carrier are
Since it is supported by a pair of front and rear uprights standing on the carrier, the end of the take-out rail and one end of the transfer rod are connected, and the hanger product suspended on the end of the take-out rail is transported by the carrier. If you try to push and transfer on the transfer rail of
Since the upright supporting column supporting one end of the transfer rod is erected on the transfer loading path, it cannot be pushed and transferred, and the hanger products suspended at the end of the output rail are manually operated. The hook of the hanger had to be detached from the take-out rail and suspended on the transfer rod of the truck.

[0004]

However, when a hanger product is changed from a terminal end of a take-out rail to a transfer rod of a carrier in units of hangers, a great deal of labor and time is required due to manual work, and this is extremely inefficient. In addition, when a large number of hanger products are held as a group by holding them with both hands and lifted, removed from the carry-out rail and replaced with the transfer rod of the carrier, the direction of the hook of the hanger is disturbed in the process of replacing. However, there has been a problem in that a part of the group of hanger products falls without being hung on the transfer rod of the transport vehicle, thereby causing contamination of the products.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Therefore, according to a first aspect of the present invention, in a device for transferring a hanger product suspended on a take-out rail to a transport vehicle, the hanger is pivoted upward at a terminal end of the take-out rail. Positioning the biased transfer rail so that it can be lifted up and down, and positioning one end of a hanger product suspension transfer rod attached to the carrier at a position above the transfer rail at the connection position of the end of the unloading rail. The horizontal portion of an inverted L-shaped column having a member disposed therein and having an upright portion erected on the carrier and a horizontal portion cantileverly supporting one end of the transfer rod from below is fitted and locked. According to the second aspect of the present invention, at least one of a pair of front and rear struts installed upright on a Z-shaped chassis having traveling wheels is upright. Inverted L-shaped support having a horizontal portion and a horizontal portion A lower end of a transfer rod for transferring and suspending a hanger product is supported on a lower surface of the horizontal portion substantially at a lower portion of the central portion, and one end of the cantilevered transfer rod is supported on an upper surface of the central portion by an output rail. The object has been solved by a hanger product transfer / transportation vehicle in which a positioning engagement member for positioning at a connection position of a terminal end portion is protruded.

[0006]

[Function] When the transfer rod of the transport vehicle is positioned substantially on the same line as the output rail and the transport vehicle is pressed against the end of the output rail,
The positioning and engaging member of the transport vehicle is fitted to the unloading rail end position positioning member located above the transfer rail, the transfer rod and the unloading rail end portion are positioned on the same line, and the lock lever is turned upside down. The horizontal portion of the L-shaped support is fitted and locked, and the connection position between the transfer rod and the end of the carry-out rail is firmly immovable.

At this time, the distal end of the transfer rail whose base end is pivotally supported by the terminal end of the take-out rail is slightly upward due to the urging force, and one end of the transfer rod is connected to the inverted L-shaped support. Since the cantilever is supported on the lower surface of the horizontal part and is supported from below, the upward end of the transfer rail must enter the upper surface of one end of the transfer rod without interfering with the upright part of the inverted L-shaped support. Can be.

[0008] When a group of hanger products temporarily stored and suspended at the end of the take-out rail is pushed toward the transfer rod side of the carrier via the transfer rail, the end of the transfer rail passes through the transfer passage. Is pushed down against the urging force by the weight of the hanger product group, and is joined to one end of the transfer rod, and the upright portion of the inverted L-shaped support is offset to the lateral position of the transfer rod of the carrier. Therefore, the hanger product is carried in and transferred onto the transfer rod without being interfered with the upright portion of the inverted L-shaped support, and is suspended.

Therefore, the lock lever is removed from the horizontal portion of the inverted L-shaped column, and the transporter with a large number of transferred hanger goods suspended on the transfer rod is moved to a desired place.

According to the present invention, since the loading end of the transfer rod of the carrier is cantilevered from below by the inverted L-shaped support, the hanger product is transferred from the terminal end of the output rail via the transfer rail. When loading and transferring to the loading rod, the upright portion of the inverted L-shaped support is offset from the loading path of the hanger product so that loading of the hanger product is not hindered, and the loading end of the loading rod is supported from below. As a result, the hanger hook can be suspended and moved on the transfer rod without interference.
There is no need to manually transfer a large number of hanger products suspended and stored at the end of the unloading rail from the end of the unloading rail to the transfer rod of the transport vehicle, keeping the product suspended at the end of the unloading rail. By simply pushing and sliding on the unloading rail, transfer rail, and transfer rod, the transfer can be performed on the carrier at once, greatly reducing the labor and time required for the transfer operation, and reducing the work efficiency. It can improve and prevent the product from falling.

Further, only by pushing the carrier on the carrying-out rail side, the end of the carrying-out rail and the transfer rod of the carrying vehicle are the same by the guide fitting of the positioning member on the carrying-out rail side and the positioning engaging member of the carrier. Since they are connected on a line, the transfer positioning connection of the transport vehicle is very easily performed, and the connection between the end of the unloading rail and the end of the transfer rod via the transfer rail is automatically locked by the lock lever. In the firm state, even when a large number of hanger products are pushed to the transfer rod, there is no danger that the end of the transfer rod will be separated from the transfer rail. The hanger does not fall off any more, and therefore, the contamination of the hanger goods by the fall can be prevented, and the effect is remarkable.
