[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

However, in the thin plate-like object conveying device with the above configuration, if a thin plate-like object becomes clogged in the device, for example, the plurality of lids closing the upper opening of the conveyance case are removed, and then the plurality of rollers are removed. Not only must the attached guide plate be swung to the side away from other guide plates, but the guide plate must be returned to its original position after the clogged thin plate is removed. However, it was necessary to attach a plurality of lid bodies, and the work of removing the blockage of the thin plate-shaped body was troublesome and time-consuming.

An object of the present invention is to enable quick removal of jams in thin plate-shaped bodies.

[Means for solving problems]

In the thin plate-shaped object conveyance device according to the present invention, the conveyance case is composed of a case body that opens on one side in the thickness direction of the thin plate-shaped body, and a lid body that closes the opening of the case body. One guide plate to which the plurality of pulleys are attached is attached to the lid body, and the other guide plate to which the plurality of rollers are attached to the lid body are attached, respectively, and the effect thereof is・The effects are as follows.

[Effect]

If the thin plate-like body becomes clogged, open the lid so that the opening of the case body is open, and one guide plate attached to the lid will be free from the other guide plate. The stuck lamina can be removed by moving it away. After removing this clogged thin plate, the lid is closed so that the opening of the case body is closed, and one guide plate attached to the lid is moved from the other. By returning it to a predetermined position relative to the guide plate, the thin plate-shaped body can be transported.

[Effect of idea]

Therefore, by simply opening and closing the lid relative to the case body, the guide plate can also be operated all at once, making it possible to unblock the thin plate body more quickly than in the past. This is advantageous in terms of maintenance.
