201236960 六、發明說明: 【潑"明戶斤屬之^技^彳軒4頁】 發明領域 本發明係有關於一種堆高式起重機,該堆高式起重機 設有在為從行走台車直立設置之柱引導之狀態下升降驅動 之升降台、物品載置體及屈伸連桿設備,並構造成於前述 升降台連結可於車體寬度方向突出退離之前述屈伸連桿機 構之基端部’且於前述屈伸連桿設備之前端部連結前述物 品載置體之基端部,而藉前述屈伸連桿設備之突出退離動 作,將前述物品載置體突出退離操作至使其退離至前述升 降台側之退離位置與突出至外側之突出位置。 c先前j 發明背景 此種堆高式起重機通常係用於對用以收納物品之複數 收納部於上下方向&水平方向排列而設之物品收納架收納 物品。 即,藉行走台車沿著設定行走路徑行走,且升降台升 降’物品載置台可移動至對收納物品之收納部於上下方向 及水平方向制喊之物品㈣架之_部_品移載位 置、對物品人庫部之物品移載位置及對物品出庫部之物品 移^位置’主要用於將人庫至物品人庫部之物品收納於收 納部之入庫作業及將收納於收納部之物品出庫至物品出庫 部之出庫作業。 附帶-提,要將存在於物品入庫部之物品或收納於收 201236960 納部之物品載置於物品載置體可進行撈取處理,該榜取處 理係在比物品下方之高度,使物品載置體突出至突出位 置,之後,使升降台上升,藉此,撈取物品,又,要將載 置於物品載置體之物品卸下至收納部或物品出庫部,可進 行卸下處理,該卸下處理係於比收納部或物品出庫部之物 品載置面還上方之高度,使物品載置體突出至突出位置, 之後’使升降台下降,藉此,將物品卸下至收納部或物品 出庫部之物品載置面。 又’由於一般多於與堆高式起重機之移動空間之長向 垂直的寬度方向之兩側裝設收納架,故構造成於升降台裝 備旋繞框,於該旋繞框連結屈伸連桿設備之基端部,藉旋 繞框之旋繞,可切換成用以使物品載置體突出至行走台車 之寬度方向之一側的狀態與用以突出至行走台車之另一側 的狀態。 此外,收納於收納部之物品於堆高式起重機之寬度方 向長時,進行下述動作,前述動作係使物品載置體於退離 位置旋繞90度,而呈使物品之長向沿著堆高式起重機之前 後方向(即,移動空間之長向)之姿勢,使堆高式起重機行走。 亦即,呈使物品之長向沿著堆高式起重機之前後方向 之姿勢,使行走台車行走且使升降台升降,然後,於物品 移載位置使旋繞框旋繞90度後,使物品載置體從退離位置 突出至突出位置。 此種堆高式起重機搬送之物品有將用於液晶顯示器或 «顯示器之玻璃基板以積層狀態(於上下方向拉開間隔 ⑧ 4 201236960 而排列之狀態)收納之容器。 附帶一提,近年由於玻璃基板有大型化之傾向,故將 玻璃基板以積層狀態收納之容器之重量有達5〇〇kg等大重 量之傾向。 又’搬送將玻璃基板以積層狀態收納之容器之堆高式 起重機一般裝設於降流式等無塵室内(例如參照專利文獻 1)。 如專利文獻1所揭示,裝設於無塵室内之堆高式起重機 構造成行走台車於左右(寬度方向)兩端側具有行走車輪,柱 以其下端部支撐於行走台車,且其上端部為自由狀態(未以 其他構件支撐之狀態)之形態而設。 亦即,當亦使柱之上端以引導軌道引導支撐時,因該 引導支撐而產生塵埃,故極力擴大行走台車之左右兩側具 有之行走車輪的間隔,即使物品載置體突出至突出位置, 行走台車亦不易左右傾斜,藉此,柱之上端部構造成不以 引導軌道引導支撐,而形成自由狀態。 先行技術文獻 專利文獻 專利文獻1日本專利公開公報2009-184787號 C 明内 發明概要 發明欲解決之課題 在堆高式起重機,以檢測載置於物品載置體之物品之 重量為理想。 201236960 即,柱以其下端部支樓於行走台車,且其上端部為自 由狀態之形態而設時’當使錢了物品之“載置體從退 離位置突出時,行走台車及柱於物品載置體之突出方向傾 斜’其傾斜量因物品之重量之大小而變化。 此外,在物品不載置於物品載置台之狀態下,使物品載 置體從退離位置突出時,亦有因物品載置體或屈伸連桿設備 之重量,行走台車及柱於物品載置體之突出方向傾斜之情 形,當然其傾斜量小於將物品載置於物品載置體之情形。 如此,進行將載置於物品載置體之物品卸下至收納部 之卸下處理之際,即使有行走台車及柱於物品載置體之突 出方向傾斜之情形’為在物品載置體之突出退離方向將物 品卸下至收納部之適當位置’考慮按物品之重量,訂定物品 載置體之突出位置,亦即,從退離位置至突出位置之突出 量’因此,以檢測載置於物品載置體之物品的重量為理想。 此外,進行卸下處理時,當對收納部卸下物品之位置 在物品載置體之突出退離方向從適當位置變化時,於進行 撈取處理時,因在物品之載重作用於物品載置體前,行走 台車及柱不於物品載置體之突出方向傾斜,或不致大幅傾 斜,故在比原本應載置之位置偏離至前端側之位置將物品 載置體之物品載置於物品載置體,結果,接著進行卸下處 理時,卸下物品之位置比適當之位置更大幅地偏離,而有 產生無法適當地進行卸下處理之困難之虞。 檢測載置於物品載置體之物品之重量的結構有鑑於使 載置了物品之物品載置體突出時,伸長狀態之屈伸連桿設 6 ⑧ 201236960 備於下方側大幅撓曲變形’而考慮使物品載置體從退離位 置突出至突出位置之途中,檢測物品載置體對升降台之上 下位置,而檢測物品之重量。 然而’為此種結構時’因下述情形,而不易適切地檢 測物品之重量,前述情形係在使物品載置體從退離位置突 出至突出位置之途中,伸長狀態之屈伸連桿設備因各種振 動原因’而上下或左右地不規則振動,有物品載置體對升 降台上下不規則地振動之傾向,或者,由於隨著伸長狀態 之屈伸連桿設備於下方側大幅撓曲變形,而形成越往前端 側’越在下方之傾斜姿勢’物品載置體亦大幅傾斜成越往 前端側,越在下方之狀態,故物品之重量對物品載置體之 施加狀況因物品之重量之差異而大幅變化等。 附帶一提’柱以其下端部支撐於行走台車,且其上端 部為自由狀態之形態而設時,與柱以其下端部支撐於行走 台車,且其上端部以引導軌道引導支撐之形態而設時不 同’當使載置了物品之物品載置體從退離位置突出時,藉 行走〇車及柱於物品載置體之突出方向傾斜,形成為物品 載置體大幅傾斜成越往前端側’越在下方之狀態之傾向, 故因物品之重量對物品載置體之施加狀況因物品之重量之 變化而大幅變化,而更不易適切地檢測物品之重量。 本發明即係鑑於上述實際情況而發明者,其目的在於 提供有效利用原本具備之結構,適切地檢測載置於物品載 置體之物品之重量之堆高式起重機。 用以欲解決課題之手段 201236960 本發明之堆高式起重機設有在被從行走台車直立設置 之柱所引導之狀態下升降驅動之升降台、物品載置體及屈 伸連桿設備,並構造成於前述升降台連結可朝車體寬度方 向突出退離之前述屈伸連桿設備之基端部,且於前述屈伸 連桿設備之前端部連結前述物品載置體之基端部,而藉前 述屈伸連杯a又備之突出退離動作,將前述物品載置體突出 退離操作至使其退離至前述升降台側之退離位置與突出至 外側之突出位置,該堆高式起重機並設有檢測位於前述退 離位置之前述物品載置體往下方側之撓曲量的撓曲量檢測 機構,且,設有撓曲量取得機構,該撓曲量取得機構係於 前述物品載置體以物品載置狀態位於前述退離位置時,取 得前述撓曲量檢測機構檢測之撓曲量作為載置於該物品載 置體之物品之重量資訊者。 即’以撓曲量檢測機構檢測位於退離位置之物品載置 體往下方側之撓曲量,然後,撓曲量取得機構於物品載置 體以物品載置狀態位於退離位置時,取得撓曲量檢測機構 檢測之撓曲量作為載置於物品載置體之物品之重量資訊。 亦即’因物品載置體係於屈伸連桿設備之前端部連結 有其基端部者,故物品載置體對屈伸連桿設備以懸臂狀 (即’僅支撐物品載置體之其中一側之狀態),故因載置之物 品之重量’對屈伸連桿設備於下方撓曲變形,且其撓曲量 按物品之重量增減。 又’以撓曲量檢測機構檢測其撓曲量,撓曲量取得機 構於物品栽置體位於退離位置時,取得撓曲量檢測機構檢 8 201236960 測之撓曲量作為載置於物品載置體之物品之重量資訊。 物品載置體位於退離位置時,由於屈伸連桿設備為彎 折而縮短之狀態’故即使載置於物品載置體之物品之重量 作用,仍為不易前後或左右大幅傾斜之狀態,又,由於為 未進行屈伸動作之狀態,故為不易上下振動之狀態。 因而,可抑制位於退離位置之物品載置體因屈伸連桿 設備之則後或左右之傾斜而傾斜,且抑制因屈伸連桿設備 之上下振動而上下振動,故形成為將以物品載置狀態位於 退離位置之物品載置體往下方側之撓曲量適切地呈現作為 物品之重量之變化的傾向,而可適切地取得適切地呈現作 為物品之重量之變化之物品載置體往下方側的撓曲量作為 載置於物品載置體之物品之重量資訊。 總而言之,根據本發明之結構,可提供有效利用物品 載置體之基端部連結於屈伸連桿設備之前端部之原本具備 的結構,而可適切地檢測載置於物品載置體之物品之重量 的堆高式起重機。 在本發明之堆高式起重機之實施形態中,前述撓曲量 檢測機構宜以雷射測距機構構成,該雷射測距機構係設置 於刖述升降台,以檢測前述物品載置體之被檢測部之上下 位置。 即,作為撓曲量檢測機構之雷射測距機構可檢測物品 載置體之被檢測部之上下位置。 亦即,可檢測物品載置體未載置物品時之被檢測部之 上下位置與物品載置體載置物品時之被檢測部之上下位置 201236960 的差作為物品載置體往下方側之撓曲量。 又’因雷射測距機構係以非接觸狀態檢測物品載置體 往下方側之撓曲量者,故相較於物品載置體之背面貼附作 為挽曲量檢測機構之應變計的情形,由於因物品載置體之 撓曲,負載不作用於雷射測距機構,而可長期間良好地檢 測物品載置體之撓曲。 而且,因雷射測距機構係可以良好精確度檢測物品載 置體之被檢測部之上下位置者,故可以良好精確度檢測因 物品之重量之變化引起之物品載置體之挽曲量的變化。 總而言之’根據上述結構,可提供可長期間良好地且 以良好精確度檢測物品載置體往下方之撓曲量之堆高式起 重機。 在本發明之堆高式起重機之實施形態中,前述撓曲量 取得機構宜構造成在從前述物品載置體由前述突出位置退 離操作至前述退離位置後經過設定時間為止之測量期間, 以設定取樣間隔反覆取得前述撓曲量檢測機構檢測之撓曲 量’將所取得之複數取樣資訊經平均化處理之值,設定為 與載置於前述物品載置體之物品之重量資訊對應的撓曲 量。 即’撓曲量取得機構當物品載置狀態之物品載置體從 突出位置退離操作至退離位置時,從緊接在此之後至設定 時間經過為止之測量期間,以設定取樣間隔反覆取得撓曲 量檢測機構檢測之撓曲量,然後,將所取得之複數取樣資 訊經平均化處理之值設定作為對應於載置於物品載置體之 201236960 物品的重量資訊之撓曲量。 如此,由於為緊接在物品載置狀態之物品載置體從突 出位置退離操作至退離位置後之測量期間結束時,求出對 應於載置於物品載置體之物品之重量資訊的撓曲量者,故 相較於下述情形,可迅速地設定對應於載置於物品載置體 之物品之重量資訊的撓曲量,前述情形係於將物品載置體 從突出位置退離操作至退離位置後,待機至撓曲量檢測機 構檢測之撓曲量穩定為止,將穩定之撓曲量設定作為對應 於載置於物品載置體之物品之重量資訊的撓曲量。 總而言之,根據本發明之上述結構,可提供可迅速地 叹疋對應於載置於物品載置體之物品的重量資訊之撓曲量 之堆高式起重機。 在本發明之堆高式起重機之實施形態中,前述行走台 車宜設成沿著設有收納物品之收納部的物品收納架行走, 用以控制前述行走台車之行走作動、前料降台之升降作 動、及前述屈伸連桿設備之突出退離作動的運轉控制機 構’係構造成在使前述物品載置體位於對前魏納部之物 品移載位置’以將載置於前述物品載置體之物品收納於前 述收納部之狀態下,依據前述撓曲量取得機構所取得之前 述撓曲量,設定使前述物品載題突出作動之前述突出位 置。 即,運轉控制機構為將載置於物品載置體之物品收納 於收納部,域撓曲量取得機構所取得之撓曲量,設定在 使物扣載置體位於對收納部之物品移載位置之狀態下,使 201236960 物品載置體突出作動之突出位置,亦即’從退離位置至犬 出位置之突出量’而使物品載置體從退離位置突出至设疋 之突出位置。 亦即,柱之上端部以引導軌道支撐時,於物品載置體 突出時,雖然抑制行走台車及柱之傾斜’但屈伸連桿設備 因物品之重量而於下方側撓曲,藉此,在使物品載置體從 退離位置突出一定量之狀態下,有物品之重量大,而往屈 伸連桿設備之下方側之撓曲量越多時’物品之突出量越不 足之傾向。因此,藉將突出位置設定成物品之重量越大’ 從退離位置突出之突出量越大,可於進行將載置於物品載 置體之物品卸下至收納部之卸下處理之際,將物品卸下至 收納部在物品載置體之突出退離方向之適當位置。 又,舉例言之’柱係以下端部支撐於行走台車,且其 上端部為自由狀態之形態而設置時,當使載置有物品之物 品載置體從退離位置突出時,行走台車及柱於物品載置體 之突出方向傾斜,然後’因其傾斜量當物品重量越大時便 越大,故在使物品載置體從退離位置突出一定量之狀態 下,有物品之重量大,行走台車及柱之傾斜量越多,物品 之突出量便越過大(即,大於適切之量)之傾向。因而,藉將 突出位置設定成物品之重量越大,從退離位置突出之突出 量越小,可於進行將載置於物品載置體之物品卸下至收納 部之卸下處理之際,將物品卸下至收納部在物品載置體之 突出退離方向之適當位置。 附帶一提,在柱以下端部支撐於行走台車,且其上端 ⑧ 12 201236960 部為自由狀態之形態而設置時,亦因物品之重量,伸長狀 態之屈伸連桿設備朝下方側撓曲,因此撓曲,在使物品載 置體從退離位置突出—定量之狀態之物品的位置變化,一 般’比起其變化量,因物品之重量、物品載置體及屈伸連 柃a又備之重罝’行走台車及柱於物品載置體之突出方向傾 斜,藉此,在使物品載置體從退離位置突出一定量之狀態 之物。α的位置變化之量大,故以柱之下端部支撐於行走台 車,且柱之上端部為自由狀態之形態設柱時,需將突出位 置設定成物品之重量越大,從退離位置突出之突出量越小。 總而S之,根據上述結構,可提供可將物品收納於在 物口口收納架之收納部在物品載置體之突出退離方向的適當 位置。 在本發明之堆高式起重機之實施形態中,前述行走台 車且構U成於則述車體寬度方向之兩端側具有行走車輪, 前述柱係以下端部支撲於前述行走台車,且其上端部為自 由狀態之形態而設置,前述運轉控制機構構造成依據基本 貝讯與前述撓曲量取得機構所取得之前述撓曲量,設定在 寸月』述收納。ρ之則述物品移載位置使前述物品載置體突出 作動之大出位置,以將載置於前述物品載置體之物品收納 於則述收納部’且前述基本資訊係訂定成前述收納部之高 度越高’從前述退離位置突出之突出量便越少。 即,運轉控制機構為將載置於前述物品載置體之物品 收納於收納部’而依據訂定成收納部之高度越高,便使從 退離位置突出之突出量越少的基本資訊與撓曲量取得機構 13 201236960 所取得之撓曲量,設定在對收納部之物品移載位置使物品 載置體突出作動之突出位置’而使物品載置體從退離位置 突出至突出位置。 亦即,柱以其下端部支撐於行走台車’且其上端部為 自由狀態之形態而設時,當使載置有物品之物品載置體從 退離位置突出時,行走台車及柱於物品載置體之突出方向 傾斜。然後,在行走台車及柱於物品載置體之突出方向傾 斜之狀態下,柱因越往其上端部側’越於物品載置體之突 出方向變位,故當使載置有相同重量之物品之物品載置體 從退離位置突出一定突出量時’物品載置體位於越高之位 置,物品之突出量便越過大(即,大於適切之量)。 是故,除了依據撓曲量取得機構所取得之撓曲量,將 物品載置體之突出位置訂定成挽曲量越大,從退離位置突 出之突出量越少外,還依據訂定成收納部之高度越高,便 使從退離位置突出之突出量越少之基本資訊,將物品載置 體之突出位置訂定成收納部之高度越高,從退離位置突出 之突出量越少,藉此,可將物品卸下至收納部在物品載置 體之突出退離方向之適當位置。 總而言之,根據上述結構,可提供可對高度不同之收 納部,將物品在物品載置體之突出退離方向收納於適當位 置之堆尚式起重機。 在本發明之堆高式起重機之實施形態中,宜於前述升 降台裝備有旋繞框’且於該旋繞框連結前述屈伸連桿設備 之基端部,用以旋繞㈣前述旋繞框之旋_驅動馬達以 ⑧ 14 201236960 連接於⑦j述升降台之支撐體支撐,前述運轉控制機構構造 成控制剛述&繞用驅動馬達之作動以於使前述物品載置 體大出至刖述行走台車之左側時,使前述旋繞框旋繞至左 側用紅繞位置’且使前述物品載置體突出至前述行走台車 之右側時’使月·』述旋繞框旋繞至右側用旋繞位置,且,構 造成依據前述撓曲量取得機構所取得之撓曲量,設定前述 左側用旋繞位置及前述右側用旋繞位置。 即,運轉控制機構構造成控制旋繞用驅動馬達之作 動,以於使物品載置體突出至行走台車之左側時,使連結 有屈伸連桿設備之基端部之旋繞框旋繞至左側用旋繞位 置,且使物品載置體突出至行走台車之右側時,使旋繞框 旋繞至右側用旋繞位置’故即使物品收納架位於行走台車 之左右兩側時’亦可對該等收納架之收納部移載物品。 而當使物品載置體從退離位置突出至突出位置時,因 物品、物品載置體及屈伸連桿設備之重量,形成旋繞框對 升降台於物品載置體之突出方向拉伸之狀態,而有支撐如 此拉伸之旋繞框之升降台引發變形之虞。 又,升降台之變形狀態於物品載置體突出至行走台車 之左側時及物品載置體突出至行走台車之右側時,因拉伸 旋繞框之方向為反方向,而不同,又,於使物品載置體從 退離位置突出至突出位置時,作用於旋繞框之之拉伸力因 物品載置體支撐之物品之重量而變化,故升降台之變形量 因物品載置體支撐之物品之重量而變化。 如此,當升降台引發變形時’有支撐旋繞用驅動馬達 15 201236960 之本體部之支撐框之姿勢、亦即該支撐框連接於升降台之 姿勢變化之虞’因該支樓框之姿勢之變化,有旋繞用驅動 馬達之本體部對升降台之輸出軸的旋轉方向之相位引發微 小變化之虞。而且,本體部對升降台之輸出軸之旋轉方向 的相位變化時,該相位之變化量因物品載置體支撐之物品 之重量而變化。 根據上述結構’因運轉控制機構構造成依據撓曲量取 得機構所取得之撓曲量,設定左側用旋繞位置及右側用旋 繞位置,故使物品載置體突出時,因物品載置體支撐之物 οσ之重重之變化,即使旋繞用驅動馬達之本體部對升降台 之輸出軸之旋轉方向的相位變化’亦可將可抵銷該變化之 位置設定為左側旋繞用位置及右側旋繞用位置,而可使物 品載置體朝適當之方向突出。 總而言之,根據上述結構,可提供下述堆高式起重機, 前述堆高式起重機係即使物品收納架位於行走台車之左右 兩側時,亦可對該等收納架之收納部移載物品,而且,不 論物品载置體支撐之物品之重量之變化為何,亦可使物品 載置體朝適當之方向突出者。 圖式簡單說明 第1圖係自動倉庫之概略平面圖。 第2圖係第1圖之倉庫之正面圖。 第3圖係堆高式起重機之側視圖。 第4圖係顯示屈伸連桿設備之縮短狀態的側視圖。 第5圖係屈伸連桿設備之伸長狀態的側視圖。 201236960 第6圖係々示物品载置體之退離狀態之概略平面圖。

可將物品載置體29旋繞成使其長向(物品B之長向)沿著堆 高式起重機5之前後方向(移動空間3之長向)的前後向狀態 (參照第1圖)。 堆高式起重機5係構造成於在移動空間3行走時’可將 23 201236960 物品載置體29形成沿著前後方向之姿勢者,如第9圖及第17 圖所示’旋繞台28之旋繞基準位置SK訂定於物品載置體29 形成沿著前後方向之姿勢的旋繞位置。

Description of the invention:  [splash " FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a stacking crane, The stacker crane is provided with a lifting platform that is driven up and down in a state guided by a column that is erected from the traveling trolley. Item carrier and flexion and extension linkage device, And configured to connect the base end portion of the flexing and extension link mechanism that can protrude away from the vehicle body width direction to the lifting platform, and connect the base end portion of the object carrier to the front end portion of the flexing and extension connecting rod device, And by the protruding retreat action of the aforementioned flexion and extension linkage device, The article carrier is protruded away from the retracted position to be retracted to the retracted position on the side of the elevating table and the projecting position to the outside.  c Previous J Background of the Invention Such a stacker crane is generally used for the upper and lower directions of the plurality of storage portions for accommodating articles. The article storage rack is arranged in the horizontal direction to store articles.  which is, Take the walking trolley and walk along the set walking path. And the lifting platform is raised and lowered. The article loading table can be moved to the item that is swayed in the up and down direction and the horizontal direction of the storage portion of the storage item (4). The item transfer position of the item mortuary department and the item transfer position of the item warehousing part are mainly used for storing the warehousing to the item mortuary part in the accommodating part and storing the items stored in the accommodating part. Outbound work to the item delivery department.  Incidental - mention, Items stored in the warehousing department of the item or items stored in the collection part of 201236960 shall be placed on the item carrier for disposal. The ranking process is at a height below the item. Extending the article carrier to the protruding position, after that, Raise the lift, With this, Take items, also, To remove the item placed on the item carrier to the storage unit or the item delivery unit, Can be removed, The unloading process is performed at a height above the article mounting surface of the storage unit or the article storage unit. Projecting the article carrier to the protruding position,  After that, the lifting platform is lowered. With this, Remove the item to the item loading surface of the storage unit or the item storage unit.  Further, since the storage rack is generally installed on both sides in the width direction perpendicular to the length of the moving space of the stacker crane, Therefore, it is configured to be equipped with a spiral frame on the lifting platform. Connecting the base end of the flexing and extension connecting rod device to the winding frame, By twisting around the frame, It is switchable to a state in which the article carrier is protruded to one side in the width direction of the traveling carriage and a state to protrude to the other side of the traveling carriage.  In addition, When the articles stored in the storage unit are long in the width direction of the stacker crane, Perform the following actions, The foregoing action causes the article carrier to be rotated 90 degrees in the retracted position. And the length of the article is oriented along the front and rear of the stacker (ie, The posture of the long space of the moving space, Walk the stacker crane.  that is, In the posture of the long direction of the article along the front and rear of the stacker crane, Let the walking trolley walk and lift the lifting platform, then, After the winding frame is rotated 90 degrees at the item transfer position, The article carrier is protruded from the retracted position to the protruding position.  The item to be transported by such a stacking crane is a container in which a glass substrate for a liquid crystal display or a display is stored in a laminated state (a state in which the interval is 8 4 201236960 in the vertical direction).  Incidentally, In recent years, due to the tendency of glass substrates to become large, Therefore, the weight of the container in which the glass substrate is stacked in a stacked state tends to be as large as 5 〇〇kg.  Further, a stacker that transports a container in which a glass substrate is stacked in a stacked state is generally installed in a clean room such as a downflow type (see, for example, Patent Document 1).  As disclosed in Patent Document 1, A stacking crane installed in a clean room is constructed such that the traveling trolley has traveling wheels on both sides of the left and right (width direction). The column is supported by the trolley at its lower end. Further, the upper end portion is provided in a free state (a state not supported by other members).  that is, When the upper end of the column is also guided by the guiding track, Dust is generated by the guiding support, Therefore, it is necessary to expand the spacing of the walking wheels on the left and right sides of the walking trolley. Even if the item carrier protrudes to the protruding position,  Walking trolleys are also not easy to tilt left and right. With this, The upper end of the column is configured not to guide the support by the guiding track, And form a free state.  The prior art document Patent Literature Patent Literature 1 Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 2009-184787 C. The summary of the invention The problem to be solved by the invention In the stacking crane, It is desirable to detect the weight of the article placed on the article carrier.  201236960 That is, The column is supported by the trolley at its lower end. And when the upper end portion is in the form of a free state, when the "loading body of the money item is protruded from the retreat position, The traveling trolley and the column are inclined in the protruding direction of the article carrier. The amount of tilt varies depending on the weight of the article.  In addition, In the state where the item is not placed on the item mounting table, When the article carrier protrudes from the retracted position, There is also the weight of the item carrier or the flexion and extension linkage device. The walking trolley and the column are inclined in the protruding direction of the article carrier, Of course, the amount of tilt is less than the case where the article is placed on the article carrier.  in this way, When the article placed on the article carrier is removed to the accommodating portion, the unloading process is performed. The case where the traveling carriage and the column are inclined in the protruding direction of the article placing body is the appropriate position where the article is removed to the accommodating portion in the direction in which the article carrier is protruded and retracted, and the weight of the article is considered. Set the protruding position of the item, that is, The amount of protrusion from the retreat position to the protruding position It is desirable to detect the weight of the article placed on the article carrier.  In addition, When performing the removal process, When the article is detached from the accommodating portion, when the protruding direction of the article carrier is changed from the appropriate position, When carrying out the fishing process, Because the load on the item acts on the item carrier, The walking trolley and the column are not inclined in the protruding direction of the article carrier. Or not to be greatly inclined, Therefore, the article carrying the article carrier is placed on the article carrier at a position offset from the position to be placed on the front end side. result, When the removal process is followed, The position at which the item is removed is more significantly deviated than the appropriate position. However, there is a difficulty in that the unloading process cannot be properly performed.  The structure for detecting the weight of the article placed on the article carrier is in view of the fact that the article carrier on which the article is placed protrudes The extension and extension of the flexural link 6 8 201236960 is prepared for the large deflection of the lower side, and considers the article carrier to protrude from the retracted position to the protruding position. Detecting the position of the article carrier on the lift table, And check the weight of the item.  However, when it is such a structure, it is due to the following circumstances. It is not easy to properly check the weight of the item. The foregoing is in the process of projecting the article carrier from the retracted position to the protruding position. The flexion and extension linkage device in an extended state is irregularly vibrated up and down or left and right due to various vibration causes. There is a tendency for the article carrier to vibrate irregularly up and down on the ascending and descending platform. or, Due to the large deflection of the flexion and extension linkage device in the extended state on the lower side, In the inclined posture which is formed toward the front end side, the article carrier is also inclined to the front end side. The state below, Therefore, the weight of the article on the article carrier is greatly changed depending on the weight of the article.  Incidentally, the column is supported by the trolley at its lower end. And when the upper end portion is in the form of a free state, And the column is supported by the trolley at its lower end, Further, when the upper end portion is provided in the form of the guide rail guiding support, when the article carrier on which the article is placed protrudes from the retracted position, By tilting the brakes and the column in the protruding direction of the article carrier, The tendency of the article carrier to be greatly inclined so as to be toward the front end side is lower.  Therefore, the application state of the article carrier due to the weight of the article greatly changes due to the change in the weight of the article. It is even more difficult to properly detect the weight of the item.  The present invention has been invented in view of the above actual circumstances, Its purpose is to provide effective use of the original structure, A stacker that properly detects the weight of the item placed on the article carrier.  Means for solving the problem 201236960 The stacker of the present invention is provided with a lifting platform that is driven up and down in a state guided by a column that is erected from the traveling trolley. Item carrier and flexion linkage device, And configured to connect the base end portion of the flexing and extension connecting rod device that can be protruded away from the width direction of the vehicle body, And connecting the base end portion of the article carrier to the front end of the flexing and extension connecting rod device, And by the above-mentioned squeezing and stretching the cup a, the outstanding retreat action is prepared. The article carrier is protruded away from the retracted position to be retracted to the retracted position on the side of the elevating table and the protruding position protruding to the outside. The stacker is provided with a deflection amount detecting mechanism that detects the amount of deflection of the article carrier located at the retreat position to the lower side. And, With a deflection amount acquisition mechanism, The deflection amount acquisition means is when the article placement body is positioned at the retreat position in an article placement state. The amount of deflection detected by the aforementioned deflection amount detecting means is obtained as the weight information of the article placed on the article carrier.  That is, the amount of deflection of the article carrier located at the retreat position to the lower side is detected by the deflection amount detecting means. then, The deflection amount obtaining mechanism is located when the article carrier is in the retracted position when the article is placed. The amount of deflection detected by the deflection amount detecting means is obtained as the weight information of the article placed on the article carrier.  That is, because the article placement system has its base end attached to the front end of the flexion and extension linkage device, Therefore, the article carrier is cantilevered to the flexion and extension linkage device (i.e., the state in which only one side of the article carrier is supported), Therefore, due to the weight of the placed article, the flexion and extension linkage device is flexed and deformed below. And the amount of deflection increases or decreases according to the weight of the item.  And detecting the amount of deflection by the deflection amount detecting mechanism, The deflection amount obtaining mechanism is when the article planting body is located at the retreat position. Obtaining the deflection amount detecting mechanism 8 201236960 The measured deflection amount is used as the weight information of the article placed on the article carrier.  When the item carrier is in the retracted position, Since the flexing and extension connecting rod device is shortened in a state of being bent, even if the weight of the article placed on the article carrier is used, Still in a state where it is not easy to tilt back and forth or left and right, also, Because it is not in the state of flexion and extension, Therefore, it is not easy to vibrate up and down.  thus, The article carrier located at the retracted position can be restrained from tilting due to the tilting of the connecting rod device or the left and right tilting, And suppresses vibration up and down due to vibration of the upper and lower bending link devices, Therefore, it is preferable to appropriately exhibit the change in the weight of the article as the amount of deflection of the article carrier placed at the retracted position in the article-mounted state. Further, the amount of deflection of the article carrier which is a change in the weight of the article as appropriate can be appropriately obtained as the weight information of the article placed on the article carrier.  all in all, According to the structure of the present invention, It is possible to provide an effective structure in which the base end portion of the article carrier is coupled to the front end portion of the flexing and extension connecting rod device. The stacker crane can appropriately detect the weight of the articles placed on the article carrier.  In an embodiment of the stacker crane of the present invention, The aforementioned deflection amount detecting mechanism is preferably constituted by a laser ranging mechanism. The laser ranging mechanism is set up in a description of the lifting platform. The upper and lower positions of the detected portion of the article carrier are detected.  which is, The laser ranging mechanism as the deflection amount detecting means can detect the upper and lower positions of the detected portion of the article carrier.  that is, The difference between the upper and lower positions of the detected portion when the article carrier is not placed and the upper and lower position of the detected portion when the article is placed on the article carrier is the amount of deflection of the article carrier to the lower side.  Further, since the laser ranging mechanism detects the amount of deflection of the article carrier to the lower side in a non-contact state, Therefore, compared with the case where the back surface of the article carrier is attached to the strain gauge as the bending amount detecting mechanism, Due to the deflection of the article carrier, The load does not act on the laser ranging mechanism, However, the deflection of the article carrier can be satisfactorily detected for a long period of time.  and, Since the laser ranging mechanism can detect the upper and lower positions of the detected portion of the article carrier with good precision, Therefore, it is possible to detect the change in the amount of the bending of the article carrier due to the change in the weight of the article with good precision.  In short, according to the above structure, It is possible to provide a stacker crane which can detect the amount of deflection of the article carrier downwards with good accuracy over a long period of time.  In an embodiment of the stacker crane of the present invention, Preferably, the deflection amount acquiring means is configured to be in a measurement period after a set time elapses after the article carrier is retracted from the protruding position to the retreat position.  The deflection amount detected by the deflection amount detecting means is obtained by repeatedly setting the sampling interval, and the obtained complex sampling information is averaged. It is set as the amount of deflection corresponding to the weight information of the article placed on the article carrier.  That is, when the article carrying body in which the article is placed in the state in which the article is placed is retracted from the protruding position to the retracted position, From the measurement period immediately after this to the set time elapses, The amount of deflection detected by the deflection detecting mechanism is obtained repeatedly at a set sampling interval. then, The averaged value of the obtained plural sampled information is set as the amount of deflection corresponding to the weight information of the 201236960 article placed on the article carrier.  in this way, Since the measurement period immediately after the article carrier in the article-mounted state is retracted from the projecting position to the retreat position, Finding the amount of deflection corresponding to the weight information of the article placed on the article carrier, Therefore, compared to the following, The amount of deflection corresponding to the weight information of the article placed on the article carrier can be quickly set, The foregoing situation is after the object carrier is retracted from the protruding position to the retreat position. Standby until the amount of deflection detected by the deflection amount detecting mechanism is stable, The amount of stable deflection is set as the amount of deflection corresponding to the weight information of the article placed on the article carrier.  all in all, According to the above structure of the present invention, A stacker that can quickly sigh the amount of deflection corresponding to the weight information of the articles placed on the article carrier can be provided.  In an embodiment of the stacker crane of the present invention, Preferably, the traveling vehicle is to be carried along an article storage rack provided with a storage portion for storing articles.  Used to control the walking behavior of the aforementioned walking trolley, Lifting and lowering of the forefoot And the operation control mechanism for the protruding retracting operation of the flexion and extension linkage device is configured such that the article carrier is placed at the article transfer position of the front Weiner portion to load the article placed on the article carrier Stored in the state of the storage unit, According to the deflection amount obtained by the aforementioned deflection amount obtaining means, The aforementioned protruding position is set to cause the aforementioned article to be highlighted.  which is, The operation control means stores the article placed on the article carrier in the storage portion. The amount of deflection obtained by the domain deflection amount acquisition mechanism, Set in a state where the object carrier is placed at a position where the article is moved to the storage unit, Make the 201236960 item placement stand out, That is, the "mounting amount from the retreat position to the dog exit position" causes the article carrier to protrude from the retracted position to the protruding position of the setting.  that is, When the upper end of the column is supported by the guide rail, When the item carrier is protruding, Although the inclination of the traveling trolley and the column is suppressed, the flexion and extension linkage device flexes on the lower side due to the weight of the article. With this, In a state in which the article carrier protrudes from the retracted position by a certain amount, The weight of the item is large, On the other hand, the more the amount of deflection on the lower side of the flexing and connecting rod device, the less the amount of protrusion of the article is insufficient. therefore, By setting the protruding position to the greater the weight of the item, the greater the amount of protrusion from the retreat position, When the article placed on the article carrier is removed to the accommodating portion, the unloading process can be performed. The article is removed to an appropriate position in the accommodating portion in the direction in which the article carrier is protruded away.  also, For example, the lower end of the column is supported by the walking trolley. And when the upper end portion is set in a free state, When the article carrier on which the article is placed protrudes from the retracted position, The traveling trolley and the column are inclined in the protruding direction of the article carrier, Then 'because the amount of tilt is greater as the weight of the item increases, Therefore, in a state in which the article carrier protrudes from the retracted position by a certain amount, The weight of the item is large, The more the tilt of the walking trolley and the column, The amount of protrusion of the item is too large (ie, The tendency to be greater than the appropriate amount). thus, By setting the prominent position to the greater the weight of the item, The smaller the amount of protrusion from the retreat position, When the article placed on the article carrier is removed from the storage unit, the unloading process can be performed. The article is detached to an appropriate position in the accommodating portion in the direction in which the article carrier is protruded away.  Incidentally, Supported at the end of the column at the end of the trolley, And when the upper end 8 12 201236960 is set in the form of a free state, Also due to the weight of the item, The flexion and extension linkage device of the extended state flexes toward the lower side. So flexing, In the position of the article that causes the article carrier to protrude from the retracted position - the state of the quantitative state, Generally, compared to the amount of change, Due to the weight of the item, The item carrier and the flexion and extension joint 柃a are also prepared for heavy lifting. The walking trolley and the column are inclined in the protruding direction of the article carrier. With this, An object in a state in which the article carrier is protruded by a certain amount from the retracted position. The amount of change in the position of α is large, Therefore, the lower end of the column is supported by the walking trolley. When the upper end of the column is in the form of a free state, when the column is provided, The protruding position needs to be set to the greater the weight of the item. The smaller the amount of protrusion from the retreat position.  In total, S, According to the above structure, It is possible to provide an appropriate position at which the article can be stored in the storage portion of the mouthpiece storage rack in the protruding direction of the article carrier.  In an embodiment of the stacker crane of the present invention, The traveling carriage is configured such that the traveling wheel has a traveling wheel on both end sides in the width direction of the vehicle body.  The lower end of the column is supported by the aforementioned walking trolley. And the upper end portion is set in the form of a free state, The operation control mechanism is configured to be based on the amount of deflection obtained by the basic hearing and the deflection amount obtaining mechanism. Set to store in the month. ρ is the position at which the article is transferred, so that the article carrier is protruded to the active position. The article placed on the article carrier is stored in the accommodating portion ‘and the basic information is set such that the height of the accommodating portion is higher ” the amount of protrusion protruding from the retreat position is smaller.  which is, The operation control means stores the article placed on the article carrier in the storage portion ‘, and the height of the storage portion is set to be higher. The amount of deflection obtained by the basic information and the deflection amount obtaining mechanism 13 201236960, the less the amount of protrusion protruding from the retreat position, The article placement body is protruded from the retracted position to the protruding position by setting a projecting position at which the article loading body is moved to the article loading position of the accommodating portion.  that is, When the column is supported by the lower end portion of the traveling trolley and the upper end portion thereof is in a free state, When the article carrier on which the article is placed protrudes from the retracted position, The traveling trolley and the column are inclined in the protruding direction of the article carrier. then, In a state where the traveling trolley and the column are inclined in the protruding direction of the article carrier, The column is displaced toward the protruding direction of the article carrier as it goes toward the upper end side thereof. Therefore, when the article carrier on which the articles of the same weight are placed protrudes from the retracted position by a certain amount of protrusion, the article carrier is located at a higher position. The amount of protrusion of the item is too large (ie, More than the appropriate amount).  Therefore, In addition to the amount of deflection obtained by the mechanism based on the amount of deflection, The protruding position of the article carrier is set to be larger, The less the amount of protrusion from the retreat position, Also according to the height of the storage portion, The basic information that makes the amount of protrusion from the retreat position less, The protruding position of the article carrier is set such that the height of the storage portion is higher. The less the amount of protrusion from the retreat position, With this, The article can be removed to the storage portion at an appropriate position in the protruding direction of the article carrier.  all in all, According to the above structure, Available in different heights, A stacking crane in which the article is stored in an appropriate position in the direction in which the article carrier is retracted.  In an embodiment of the stacker crane of the present invention, Preferably, the lifting platform is equipped with a winding frame ′ and the base frame of the flexing and extension connecting rod device is coupled to the winding frame. The rotary-drive motor for winding (4) the aforementioned spiral frame is connected to the support of the lift platform of the 7j 201236960, The aforementioned operation control mechanism is configured to control the description & When the driving motor is driven to move the aforementioned article carrier to the left side of the traveling trolley, When the winding frame is wound to the left side with the red winding position 'and the article carrier is protruded to the right side of the traveling trolley, the revolving frame is rotated to the right side winding position. And, Constructing a deflection amount obtained by the above-mentioned deflection amount obtaining mechanism, The aforementioned left-hand winding position and the aforementioned right-side winding position are set.  which is, The operation control mechanism is configured to control the operation of the winding drive motor, In order to cause the article carrier to protrude to the left side of the traveling trolley, Rotating the convoluted frame of the base end portion of the flexion and extension linkage device to the left side with a convoluted position, And when the article carrier is protruded to the right side of the traveling trolley, By winding the convoluted frame to the right side by the winding position 'when the article storage rack is located on the left and right sides of the traveling carriage, the articles can be transferred to the storage portion of the storage rack.  And when the article carrier is protruded from the retracted position to the protruding position, Due to items, The weight of the article carrier and the flexion and extension linkage device, Forming a state in which the winding frame stretches in the protruding direction of the article carrier, On the other hand, there is a lifting platform that supports such a stretched spiral frame to cause deformation.  also, When the article mounting body protrudes to the left side of the traveling carriage and the article carrier protrudes to the right side of the traveling trolley, Because the direction of the stretched spiral frame is in the opposite direction, And different, also, When the article carrier is protruded from the retracted position to the protruding position, The tensile force acting on the winding frame varies depending on the weight of the article supported by the article carrier.

With this,  The article placed on the article carrier 29 is detached to the article placement surface. after that,  The article carrier 29 is retracted to the retracted position.  further, Explain, When the operation control mechanism performs the warehousing and delivery operations, First, in the state where the winding table 28 is located at the winding reference position SK, Controlling the operation of the traveling electric motor 25 and the lifting electric motor 21, The item transfer device 15 is moved to the item transfer position.  then, In order to rotate the winding table 28 to the left side with the winding position or the right side with the winding position SR' according to the detection information of the rotary encoder for winding, Controlling the operation of the winding electric motor 34, The difficult article carrier 29 is in the retracting direction.  after that, According to the detection assets of the rotary encoder 41 for protruding withdrawal, Skillfully highlighting the retreat (4) riding 34, Make the item charm (four) suddenly (four) move to the prominent position.  then, When doing the list processing, Controlling the operation of the electric motor 34 for the retraction of the protrusions, and moving the article carrier located at the transfer position of the article to the protruding position, According to the liter-f shooting distance meter, the lifting electric material is used up, View, Make the heart of the 吏 29 201236960 After the article B of the list object is placed and supported on the object carrier 29', the operation of the electric motor 34 for controlling the retreat is controlled.  The buckle body 29 is retracted to operate. at this time, When the retreat state detecting sensor 40 detects the article carrier 29 as the retreat position, The retreat of the article carrier 29 is stopped.  also, When it is processed, Control the movement of the electric motor with a large amount of retreat, After the article carrier 29 located at the item transfer position is actuated to the dog out position, The lifting motor is actuated by the electric motor 21 according to the detection information of the lifting laser range finder 23, With this, Lowering the lifting platform 14 by a set distance corresponding to the target amount of the lowering, The article B of the object to be picked up is placed on the article mounting surface supported at the place where the object is removed. after that, Controlling the movement of the retracting electric motor 34, The article carrier 29 is retracted to operate. at this time, When the retreat state detecting sensor 40 detects the article carrier 29 as the retreat position, The retreat of the article carrier 29 is stopped.  As shown in Figure 4, The stacking crane 5 is provided with a deflection amount detecting mechanism Q for detecting an amount of bending or deflection of the article placing body 29 located at the retreating position.  also, The operation control mechanism is configured such that when the article carrier 29 is in the retracted position, The amount of deflection detected by the deflection amount detecting means Q is obtained as the weight information of the article placed on the article carrier 29.  that is, In this embodiment, When the article carrier 29 is in the retracted position, The amount of deflection obtained by the deflection amount detecting means Q is used as the deflection amount obtaining means for the weight information of the article placed on the article placing body 29, using the rotation control means Η.  8 30 201236960 The summer measuring mechanism Q is composed of a laser range finder 43 for detecting the amount of bending of the laser ranging mechanism. The laser ranging mechanism has a light projecting portion and a light receiving portion that detect the vertical position of the light reflector 4 as the detected portion of the article carrier 29. also, The deflection amount detecting laser range finder 43 is equipped with a pair of left and right sides for projecting the article carrier 29 to be retracted from the operation to the left side of the winding table 28 by the winding position SL, and the user and the article carrier 29 are protruded. The user is removed from the retracting operation to the right side of the winding table 28 by the winding position SR.  The deflection amount detecting laser range finder 43 is configured such that the light receiving unit receives the ranged laser light projected from the light projecting portion and reflects it by the light reflector 42 and returns it. The distance to the light reflector 42 is detected.  That is, when the article b is not placed on the article carrier 29, The deflection amount is detected by the distance detected by the laser range finder 43 and when the article B is placed on the article carrier 29, The difference between the distances detected by the laser range finder 43 for the amount of curvature measurement is the amount of deflection of the article carrier 29 in the state in which the article is placed. In this embodiment,  The operation control mechanism is configured to be ready to start the fishing process, Detecting the distance detected by the laser range finder 43 according to the amount of deflection, Find the initial value r and remember, Then, 'after the fishing process is completed', the distance detected by the laser range finder 43 is measured according to the amount of deflection, Find the actual measured value d in the state in which the article is placed,  The difference (R-D) between the initial value R and the actual measured value D is obtained as the amount of deflection corresponding to the weight information of the article B placed on the article carrier 29.  An example of the relationship between the amount of deflection (R-D) and the weight of the article β is shown in Fig. 15.  As shown in this illustration, It can be seen that the amount of deflection (R-D) is approximately proportional to the weight of the article B (i.e., 'an almost substantially proportional relationship).  31 201236960 In addition, in this embodiment, It is assumed that the weight of the article B is in the range of about i9 〇 Kg to about 500 kg.  In other words, the weight of the article holding body 4 in which the plate-like body such as the glass substrate is not accommodated is about 19 k k s. The weight of the article holder 4 which accommodates the maximum number of plate-shaped bodies such as a glass substrate is about 500 kg.  Incidentally, It can also be implemented in the following form instead of when it is processed. Find the initial value R, The above configuration is in a state where the article B is not placed on the article carrier 29, The initial value R is obtained by using the distance detected by the laser range finder 43 for the deflection amount detection.  The process of obtaining the above actual measured value D is explained. As shown in Fig. 14, the operation control mechanism is configured to be used for fishing processing. During the measurement period from the ejecting position of the article mounting body 29 immediately after the article is placed from the protruding position to the retracted position until the set time (for example, 400 ms) elapses, Set the sampling interval (predetermined sampling time interval, For example, l〇ms) repeatedly obtains the detection distance detected by the laser range finder 43 for the deflection amount detection, The averaged value of the obtained plurality of sampled information (data) is set as the actual measured value D.  Constructed into an averaging process in this embodiment, A process of determining the average value of the maximum value and the minimum value in the information sampled during the set time is performed.  Further, the 'averaging processing can replace the processing using a conventional process such as finding all the average values of the sampled information, and the processing for obtaining the initial value R described above will be explained. The operation control mechanism is configured to perform the dialing process' in a state where the winding table 28 is located at the winding reference position SK, Moving the article transfer device 15 to the object β of the object to be picked up 8 32 201236960 After the product transfer position ' When the winding table 28 is wound to the left side with the winding position SL or the right side with the winding position SR, The measurement time from the immediately after this to the set time (for example, 400ms), The amount of deflection detected by the deflection amount detecting mechanism Q is obtained by repeatedly setting the sampling interval (for example, 丨oms). The averaged value of the obtained plurality of sampling information (data) is memorized as an initial value.  In the present embodiment, the averaging process when the initial value is obtained is the same as when the actual measured value D is obtained. A process of determining the average value of the maximum value and the minimum value among the information sampled during the set time is performed.  Further, the 'averaging process' can replace such a process by a conventional process such as finding all the average values of the sampled information.  Further, the protruding position of the article carrier 29 when the fishing process is performed, That is, the amount of protrusion of the article carrier 29 from the retreat position to the projecting position is set to a different amount of protrusion which is predetermined in advance according to the height of the article transfer position.  Further, 'the protruding position of the article carrier 29 when the unloading process is performed' is The amount of protrusion of the article carrier 29 from the retreat position to the protruding position is set to the following value, The aforementioned value is a correction value determined by subtracting the amount of deflection (RD) corresponding to the weight information of the article B corresponding to the article carrier 29, which is set in advance according to the height of the article transfer position. E.  This correction value is determined as the amount of deflection (R-D) is larger. The greater the value,  For example, The amount of deflection (R-D) can be divided into plural stages. It is implemented in the form of the correction value E of each stage.  According to the height of the item placement position, The amount of protrusion set in advance to a different value is in a state where the article B is not placed on the article carrier 29, The stacker 5 is experimentally actuated, The measurement is made such that the article carrier 29 protrudes to the amount required for the position of the protrusion 33 201236960 to retreat, This information is stored as a basic information in the memory of the operation control organization.  That is, the column 13 is supported by the trolley 12 at its lower end. And when the upper end portion is in the form of a free state, When the article carrier 29 is in a state in which the article is not placed, the article carrier 29 is protruded from the retracted position or the article carrier 29 in the state in which the article is placed is protruded from the retracted position. As shown in Figures 16 and 18, The trolley 12 and the column 13 are inclined in the protruding direction of the article carrier 29, And the weight of the object is greater as the weight of the item. It will be bigger.  thus, Because the article carrier 29 is protruded by a certain amount from the retracted position, The traveling trolley 12 and the column 13 are inclined in the protruding direction of the article carrier 29, Therefore, the amount of protrusion of the article carrier 29 is even in the state where the article is not placed. The higher the height of the item's transfer position, Go over big (ie, a tendency to be greater than the appropriate amount, The amount of protrusion from the retreat position of the article carrier 29 in the state in which the article is not placed is previously stored in the memory portion of the operation control unit 作为 as the basic information.  that is, In the fishing process, The amount of protrusion obtained based on basic information,  The article carrier 29 is operated from the retracted position to the protruding position.  also, The amount of tilt of the traveling trolley 12 and the column 13 is larger as the weight of the article placed on the article carrier 29 is larger. Therefore, in a state in which the article carrier 29 is protruded from the retreat position in accordance with the reference information, The greater the weight of the item, The greater the inclination of the walking trolley 12 and the column 13,  The tendency of the item to become oversized (greater than the appropriate amount).  therefore, It is necessary to correct the amount of the above-mentioned basic information into the article, and the smaller the weight, the smaller. Specifically, Corresponding to the amount of deflection (R-D) corresponding to the weight information of the article B placed on the article placement 34 201236960 body 29, Set the correction value E, The amount of protrusion is determined as the value of the correction value E is subtracted from the amount of the basic information.  that is, When the article B placed on the article carrier 29 is detached to the accommodating portion 1 or the article placing portion 1 ,, When only the item carrier is highlighted to correspond to the amount of protrusion of the basic information, As shown in Figure 18(a), The position J1 of the item 0 is removed, and the appropriate position J0 is set. The protruding side of the article carrier 29 is too large, then, On the occasion of the fishing process, When the article carrier 29 is caused to protrude from the article carrier by the amount of protrusion corresponding to the basic information, As shown in Figure 17(b), The article carrier 29 causes the drawback that the article B is placed at a position closer to the front end than the position to be placed.  In this regard, the amount of protrusion of the unloaded article carrier 29 is reduced from the amount of protrusion of the basic information by the amount of deflection (RD) corresponding to the weight information of the article B placed on the article carrier 29. Correct the value e and correct it, When the article carrier 29 is protruded in this highlighted protrusion, As shown in Fig. 16(a), the position J1 of the unloaded item B is close to the set appropriate position j〇, then, On the occasion of the fishing process, When the article carrier 29 is caused to protrude in a protruding amount corresponding to the basic information, the article carrier 29 as shown in Fig. 16(b) places the article B at a position to be placed.

即,運轉控制機構Η依據所取得之撓曲量(R_D),將物 品載置體29之突出位置訂定成當撓曲量(R_D)越大時,從退 離位置突出之突出量便越少’而且,依據將從退離位置突 出之突出量訂定成當收納部1之高度越高時,便越少之基本 資訊,將物品載置體29之突出位置訂定成當收納部t之高度 越南時’從退離位置突出之犬出里越少,藉此,可將物品B 35 201236960 卸下至收納部1在物品載置體之突出退離方向之設定適當 位置J0。 附帶一提’由於物品載置部10設於對應於上下排列之 收納部1之最下段收納部1的高度,故可使用基本資訊中對 應於最下段收納部1之資訊。 又,構造成進行卸下處理時之左側用旋繞位置SL或右 側用旋繞位置SR如上述,按載置於物品載置體29之物品B 之重量而設定。 亦即,當使物品載置體29從退離位置突出至突出位置 時,因物品B、物品載置體29、及屈伸連桿設備30之重量, 形成旋繞台28對升降台14,於物品載置體29之突出方向拉 伸之狀態,而有支撐如此拉伸之旋繞台28之升降台14引發 變形之虞。 又,升降台14之變形狀態因在物品載置體29突出至行 走台車12之左側時及物品載置體29突出至行走台車12之右 側時,旋繞台28拉伸之方向不同而不同’又’使物品載置體 29從退離位置突出至突出位置時,作用於旋繞台28之拉伸力 係因物品載置體29支撐之物品B之重量而變化者,故升降台 14之變形量因物品載置體29支撐之物品之重量而變化。 加以說明,在本實施形態中,如在上面參照第8圖所說 明,對升降台14支撐旋繞用電動馬達31之支撐框35以在升 降台14之側壁部中相當於行走台車12之後方側之後壁部與 旋繞用電動馬達31之本體部31A間延伸成水平之姿勢配置。 因此,如在第9圖以虛線所示,使物品載置體29突出至 ⑧ 36 201236960 行走台車12之左側(由於第9圖為仰視圖,故為右側),承接 支撐旋繞台28,藉此,升降台14全體變形,支撐支撐框% 之側壁部在平面觀看為傾斜,故支撐框35形成為凸出^左 側之弓形,旋繞用電動馬達31之本體部31Α朝右側(在第9 圖為左側,即,逆時鐘旋轉),故物品載置體29之突出方向 變動至旋繞基準位置SK所在之行走台車12之前方側。 此外,由於第9圖係仰視圖,故在此第9圖中,支撐框 35形成凸出至右側之弓形,旋繞用電動馬達31之本體部3ΐΑ 形成朝左側(逆時鐘方向)旋轉之狀態。 因而,在將物品Β載置於物品載置體29之狀態下,使旋 繞台2 8從旋繞基準位置S Κ旋繞至左側用旋繞位置s L之角 度如第17圖所示,設定成大於9〇度之旋繞角度,且該旋繞 角度设定成物品B之重量越大,便越大。 附帶一提,按物品B之重量之旋繞角度預先以實驗等求 出,而訂定。 又’雖圖中未示,但與使物品載置體29突出至行走台 車12之左側時同樣地,當使物品載置台29突出至行走台車 12之右側時,承接支撐旋繞台28,藉此,升降台14全體變 形’結果’支撐框35形成為凸出至右側之弓形,旋繞用電 動馬達31之本體部31A朝左側旋轉,故物品載置體29之突出 方向變動至旋繞基準位置SK所在之行走台車12之前方側。In other words, the operation control unit 订 sets the protruding position of the article placing body 29 in accordance with the obtained amount of deflection (R_D) so that when the amount of deflection (R_D) is larger, the amount of protrusion protruding from the retreating position is increased. In addition, according to the amount of protrusion protruding from the retreat position, when the height of the accommodating portion 1 is higher, the basic information is less, and the protruding position of the article placing body 29 is set to be the accommodating portion t. At the height of Vietnam, the fewer dogs are protruded from the retreat position, whereby the article B 35 201236960 can be removed to the storage unit 1 at the appropriate position J0 of the protruding direction of the article placement body. Incidentally, since the article placing portion 10 is provided at a height corresponding to the lowermost storage portion 1 of the accommodating portion 1 arranged up and down, the information corresponding to the lowermost accommodating portion 1 in the basic information can be used. Further, the left-hand winding position SL or the right-side winding position SR when the detaching process is configured is set as described above by the weight of the article B placed on the article carrier 29. That is, when the article placing body 29 is protruded from the retracted position to the protruding position, the winding table 28 is formed on the lifting table 14 by the weight of the article B, the article placing body 29, and the flexing and extension connecting device 30. The state in which the carrier body 29 is stretched in the protruding direction is caused by the lifting table 14 that supports the thus-stretched winding table 28 to cause deformation. Further, when the article mounting body 29 protrudes to the left side of the traveling carriage 12 and the article placing body 29 protrudes to the right side of the traveling carriage 12, the direction in which the winding table 28 is stretched is different and different When the article carrier 29 is protruded from the retracted position to the protruding position, the tensile force acting on the winding table 28 is changed by the weight of the article B supported by the article carrier 29, so the amount of deformation of the lifting table 14 It varies depending on the weight of the article supported by the article carrier 29. In the present embodiment, as described above with reference to Fig. 8, the support frame 35 of the electric motor 31 for winding is supported on the elevating table 14 so as to correspond to the side of the traveling vehicle 12 in the side wall portion of the elevating table 14 Thereafter, the wall portion and the main body portion 31A of the winding electric motor 31 are arranged to extend horizontally. Therefore, as shown by a broken line in Fig. 9, the article placing body 29 is projected to the left side of the traveling carriage 12 (the right side is shown in Fig. 9 as the bottom view), and the support winding table 28 is received. The lifting platform 14 is entirely deformed, and the side wall portion supporting the support frame % is inclined in plan view, so that the support frame 35 is formed in a bow shape protruding from the left side, and the main body portion 31 of the winding electric motor 31 is turned to the right side (in the ninth figure) On the left side, that is, counterclockwise rotation, the protruding direction of the article carrier 29 is changed to the front side of the traveling trolley 12 where the winding reference position SK is located. Further, since the ninth drawing is a bottom view, in the ninth drawing, the support frame 35 is formed in a bow shape which is convex to the right side, and the main body portion 3 of the winding electric motor 31 is formed to rotate toward the left side (counterclockwise direction). Therefore, in the state where the article stack is placed on the article carrier 29, the angle at which the winding table 28 is rotated from the winding reference position S to the left side winding position s L is set to be larger than 9 as shown in FIG. The winding angle of the twist, and the winding angle is set such that the greater the weight of the article B, the larger. Incidentally, the winding angle by the weight of the article B is determined in advance by experiments or the like. Further, although not shown, when the article placing body 29 is protruded to the left side of the traveling carriage 12, when the article placing table 29 is projected to the right side of the traveling carriage 12, the winding table 28 is supported. The entire lifting table 14 is deformed and the result frame 35 is formed to be convex to the right side, and the body portion 31A of the winding electric motor 31 is rotated to the left side. Therefore, the protruding direction of the article carrier 29 is changed to the winding reference position SK. The side of the trolley 12 is on the front side.

The angle is set to the larger the weight of the item B 37 201236960. Incidentally, the winding angle by the weight of the article B is determined in advance by experiments or the like. In this manner, the operation control mechanism Η is configured to set the left side winding position SL and the right side winding position s R according to the amount of deflection (R - D) of the article placing body 29, so that when the article placing body 29 is protruded, The change in the weight of the article b supported by the article carrier 29 enables the article carrier 29 to be appropriate even if the phase of the rotation direction of the output shaft 31B of the elevator table 14 is changed by the body portion 31 of the winding drive motor 31. The direction is outstanding. Next, the fishing process and the unloading process in the control operation performed by the operation control unit , will be described based on the flowcharts of Figs. 2 and 13 . First, referring to Fig. 12, the fishing process will be described. In the state in which the winding table 28 is positioned at the reference winding position SK, the article loading body 29 of the article transfer device 15 is moved to the article transfer position for the article to be picked up, and then the winding table 28 is caused. Rotating to the left side starts with the winding position SL or the right side with the winding position SR. Incidentally, the operation control means obtains the distance detected by the deflection amount detecting laser measuring unit 43 before performing the fishing process, and performs the process of obtaining the initial value R. Further, the left side winding position SL or the right side winding position SR at the time of performing the fishing process is such that the winding table 28 is rotated 90 degrees from the winding reference position SK to the left or right. First, the projecting action of the article carrier 29 is started (#1), and then, based on the basic information, it is determined whether or not the article carrier 29 protrudes to the predetermined protruding position 8 38 201236960 (#2), and the action is continued until the article is placed. The body 29 is located at the protruding position. At #2, when it is determined that the article placing body 29 is projected to the protruding position, the article placing body 29 is started to move up (#3), and then it is determined whether or not the target amount (#4) has been raised, and the operation is continued to rise. Until the article carrier 29 is raised by the target amount set. At #4, when it is determined that the article carrier 29 is raised by the target amount set, the retreat operation of the article carrier 29 is started (#5), and then it is determined whether or not the article carrier 29 is retracted to the retreat position ( #6), continue to retreat until the item carrier 29 retreats to the retreat position. At #6, when it is determined that the article carrier 29 is retracted to the retreat position, sampling (#7) of the detection information of the deflection amount detecting laser range finder 4 is started at the set sampling interval, Next, it is determined whether or not the set time has elapsed (#8), and the sampling is continued until the set time elapses. When it is judged that the set time elapses in #8 ', the averaging processing (#9) of the average value is performed based on the information sampled. This averaging process is a process of determining the average value of the maximum value and the minimum value among the information sampled during the set time (or other averaging process known in the art), and the value obtained by the averaging process is memorized as actual Measured value D. Next, referring to Fig. 13, the description will be made assuming that the article B placed on the article carrier 29 by the above-described pick-up processing is removed. In the state in which the winding table 28 is placed at the winding reference position SK, the article transfer device 15, that is, the article carrier 29 is moved to the article transfer position where the unloading process is performed, and then the winding table is rotated. 28 is wound to the left side with the winding position SL or the right side with the winding position 811. 39 201236960 In addition, the amount of deflection (RD) of the article carrier 29 obtained by subtracting the initial value R from the actual measured value D from the left-hand winding position SL or the right-hand winding position SR is determined. The winding angle from the winding reference position SK is formed at a position greater than an angle of 90 degrees. First, the protruding position calculation processing (#11) of the protruding position of the article placing body 29 at the time of the unloading process, that is, the protruding amount of the article placing body 29 from the retreating position to the protruding position is obtained. The projection position calculation process preliminarily sets the amount of protrusion of the basic information of the amount of protrusion from the height of the item transfer position, and subtracts the amount of deflection corresponding to the weight information of the item B corresponding to the item carrier 29 ( RD) is the processing of the correction value E. Then, 'the starting operation of the article carrier 29 is started (#12), and then it is determined whether the article carrier 29 protrudes to the protruding position determined by the calculation result of the projection position calculation processing (#13), and the operation is continued until the article is loaded. The body 29 protrudes to the protruding position. At #13, when it is determined that the article placing body 29 is at the protruding position, the lowering operation of the article placing body 29 is started (#14), and then it is determined whether or not the target amount of the setting is lowered (#15) 'Continue to descend to the article. The carrier 29 is lowered by the target amount set. When it is determined that the article placement body 29 is lowered by the target amount set by #15', the retreat operation of the article carrier 29 is started (#16), and then it is determined whether the article carrier 29 is retracted to the retreat position (# 17), continue to retreat until the article carrier 29 is at the retreat position.

The amount of deflection obtained by the deflection amount acquisition means is set to a protruding position at which the article carrier on which the article is placed protrudes. (3) In the above-described embodiment, the left side of the winding frame in the state in which the article carrier is not placed is set at a position rotated by 90 degrees from the winding reference position by the winding position and the right side winding position. When the article is placed on the article carrier and the article carrier is protruded from the retracted position to the protruding position, the protruding direction of the article carrier is changed by the deformation of the support frame of the lifting table or the winding drive motor. When the appropriate direction is deviated, the left side of the state in which the article is not placed is set at the position where the winding position and the right side winding position are rotated by more than 90 degrees from the winding reference position, and the article carrier is protruded to the desired direction. (4) In the above-described embodiment, the article storage unit and the item storage unit are separately provided, and the item storage and the item storage and the storage and delivery unit may be provided.

(6) In the above embodiment, the operation control means for controlling the operation of the stacker is exemplified as the deflection amount obtaining means, and the deflection amount obtaining means may be constituted by using a dedicated control means. (7) In the above-described embodiment, the storage rack having the four-stage storage unit in the vertical direction is exemplified, and the number of the upper and lower sides of the storage unit can be variously changed. (8) In the above-described embodiment, it is exemplified that the correction value subtracted from the amount of protrusion of the basic information is set only in accordance with the amount of deflection detected by the deflection amount detecting means, and the correction is required according to the height of the accommodating portion. In the case of the value, the correction value may be set in accordance with the amount of deflection and the height of the accommodating portion.
