There is a problem that the skid 2 is tilted due to the different support heights of the skid 2, and the height position of the transported article 1 being transported by the suspended transport device 4 is out of order.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to prevent the hanger from entering the back side of the skid from below the stop plate, and to ensure that the hanger supports the supported plate.

To achieve this object, the present invention provides a skid on which an article to be transported can be placed, a hanger that can enter into the skid from the side of the skid and support the skid, and has a hanger capable of supporting the skid. A suspended conveyance device capable of conveyance is provided, and the skid is provided with a horizontal supported plate supported by the hanger and a vertical stop plate that abuts the tip of the hanger to restrict the amount of movement thereof. providing a supported member having
A stopper is provided at a position on the conveyance path where the hanger enters the skid for preventing the tip of the hanger from entering from below the stop plate to the rear side of the skid.

Therefore, even if the height position between the supported member and the hanger is incorrect, it is possible to reliably prevent the hanger from entering from below the stop plate to the back of the skid, and the hanger can reliably hold the supported member against the hanger. This makes it possible to support the skid at an appropriate height, which prevents the skid from tilting and the height of the transported items being transported by the suspended transport device to be out of alignment. can be prevented.

Next, examples of the present invention will be described. In Figures 4 to 6, 5 is a trolley, 2 is a skid, 1
1 is a guide roller with a toe pin, and 13 is a supported member having a supported plate 14 with an abutting member 16 and a stop plate 15, which are the same as those shown in FIGS. 1 to 3. . To explain in more detail, the supported member 13 is provided with a pair of side plates 17 which are flared downward, and after the above-mentioned hanger 3 is inserted into the supported member 13, the hanger 3 is raised and applied. It is used as a guide when making contact with the member 16. Further, the guide roller 11 with a tow pin is attached to a bracket 18 projecting from the truck 5, and is located on the outer side of the truck 5 below the stop plate 15. Note that the guide roller 12 also has a similar configuration.

19 is a stopper provided at the delivery position 6 shown in FIG. In this stopper 19, 20
is a bracket erected on a base plate 21, and a guide member 22 that can be tipped over is attached to the bracket 20 on the outer side of the cart 5 so as to be swingable about a shaft 23. 24 is a guide member 22
A spring 25 is a stopper piece attached to the guide member 22, and by being engaged with the bracket 20, the guide member 22 is held in an upright position. The guide member 22 guides the supported member 13 in the upright position.
a pair of guide plates 26 extending downward from a position outside of the side plates 17; and a stopper plate 27 that is continuous with both guide plates 26 and is located near below the stop plate 15 of the supported member 13 when in the upright position. It has The guide plate 26 is configured to widen toward the direction away from the truck 5.

A pair of horizontal support plates 28 are attached to the guide member 22, and both support plates 28 include:
A mountain-shaped roller guide plate 29 facing toward the truck 5 in a horizontal plane is fixed with bolts and nuts 30.

In the above configuration, first, as shown in FIG.
bring closer to. Then, the guide roller 11 with toe pin (or the guide roller 12 may also be used) touches the roller guide plate 2 at the position shown by the imaginary line in FIG.
9, and if the cart 5 moves further from this position, the guide roller 11 with tow pin will tilt down the guide member 22, as shown in FIG. Collisions can be avoided. The bracket 18 passes the position of the guide member 22, and the guide roller 1 with toe pin
1 reaches the position shown by the solid line in FIG. 5, the guide member 22 returns to its original upright position. The amount of fall of the guide member 22 can be adjusted by changing the position of the roller guide plate 29 using bolts and nuts 30.

The cart 5 is then run, and when the supported member 13 and the guide member 22 are aligned with each other as shown in FIG. 6, the cart 5 is stopped. Next, as shown in FIG. 1, the hanging conveyance device 4 is moved toward the delivery position 6. When the hanger 3 reaches almost the position of the supported member 13, the hanging conveyance device 4 is stopped and the hanger 3 is moved into the supported member 13. At this time, the horizontal positions of the hanger 3 and the supported member 13 do not necessarily have to be exactly the same;
6 ensures that the support member 13 enters the interior of the supported member 13.

At this time, the stopper plate 27 of the guide member 22 is located near the bottom of the stopper plate 15 of the supported member 13, and even if the hanger 3 enters from a considerably lower position than the supported member 13, The tip of the hanger 3 hits the stopper plate 27, and it is reliably prevented from entering the back side of the skid 2 from below the stopper plate 15 as shown by the imaginary line in FIG.
Next, when the hanger 3 is raised to lift the skid 2, the transfer of the skid 2 from the trolley 5 to the suspended conveyance device 4 is completed. Thereafter, the suspended conveyance device 4 moves in the direction of arrow B to convey the skid 2,
On the other hand, the empty trolley 5 is replaced by a chain conveyor 10,
42, it is carried out from the delivery position 6.

In the case where this is supported by an integrated hanger 3, if the positions of one of the supported members 13 and the hanger 3 match with respect to the traveling direction of the truck 5, the other one will also necessarily match. Therefore, the fourth
When a stopper 19 with a guide plate 26 as shown in FIGS. 6 to 6 is used, the guide plate 26 is not required on the other side.

FIGS. 7 and 8 illustrate a stopper 31 without such a guide plate 26. As shown in FIGS. Here, a pair of plates 33 are erected on the base plate 32 to constitute a bracket 34, and between the two plates 33 is a stopper plate 35 which can be tipped over in the direction of movement of the trolley 5, that is, in the direction of the arrow A. is attached to be able to swing freely around the shaft 36. 37 is the stopper plate 35
The spring 38 is a stopper piece that locks onto the stopper plate 35 to regulate the position of the stopper plate 35 in the upright position.
It is fixed at 4. The stopper plate 35 is configured to be located close below the stopper plate 15 of the supported member 13 of the skid 2 when in the upright position.

In the stopper 31 having the above configuration, the stopper plate 35 is pushed by the bracket 18 as the trolley 5 travels and falls down as shown by the imaginary line in FIG.
After passing 8, return to the original standing position. Stopper plate 3
5 prevents the hanger 3 of the suspended conveyance device 4 from entering abnormally, similar to that shown in FIGS. 4 to 6 described above.

In addition, in the above embodiment, the guide rollers 11, 1
Although the case has been described in which the bracket 18 supporting the guide member 22 is attached to the cart 5, if there is no protrusion on the outside of the cart 5 below the stop plate 15 of the supported member 13, the guide member 22 Also, the stopper plate 35 may be of a fixed type instead of a falling type. Further, in the above embodiment, the skid 2 is transferred from the cart 5 to the suspension conveyance device 4, but it may also be such that the skid 2 on a fixed stand is transferred to the suspension conveyance device 4, for example. In this case, the guide member 22 and the stopper plate 35 are of the same fixed type as described above.

As described above, according to the present invention, even if the height positions of the supported member and the hanger are incorrect,
It is possible to reliably prevent the hanger from entering the back side of the skid from below the stop plate, and the hanger can reliably support the supported plate. It is possible to prevent the height position of the transported article from going out of order.
