Description
図1は、第1実施形態に係る搬送車システムSYS1の一例をY方向に視た図である。図1に示す搬送車システムSYS1は、例えば、半導体デバイスの製造工場等に設けられ、レチクル等を収容したレチクルポッド、あるいは半導体デバイスの製造に用いられる半導体ウエハを収容したFOUP等の物品Wを搬送する。搬送車システムSYS1は、天井搬送車30により、物品Wを載置可能な移載場所(例えば、後述する第1移載場所S1等)との間で物品Wを搬送する。本実施形態では、物品Wがレチクルポッドである例を用いて説明するが、物品Wは、レチクルポッド以外であってもよい。また、搬送車システムSYS1は、半導体製造分野以外の設備に適用可能であり、物品Wは、搬送車システムSYS1で搬送可能な他の物品でもよい。
図6は、第2実施形態に係る搬送車システムSYS2の一例をY方向に視た図である。図6に示す搬送車システムSYS2は、例えば、半導体デバイスの製造に用いられる半導体ウエハを収容したFOUP等の物品Fを搬送する。物品Fは、第1実施形態の物品W(レチクルポッド)よりも大きく、平面視において保持部33よりも大きい。
