Abstract: A cabinet wherein air sucked from an inlet opening 4d of a shelf board combined inlet duct 4 by drive of an air purification unit 3 is passed through the shelf board combined inlet duct 4 and introduced into the inside of a case 3a, and by a dust collection filter 32 and an odor eliminating means 33. Air forced into the shelf board combined outlet duct 5 through the air duct 10 is exhausted through an outlet opening 5d of the shelf board combined outlet duct 5, and air curtain is formed along the opening of the storage section 11 of a cabinet 1. Therefore, air in the storage section 11 of the cabinet 1 is circulated and purified, while getting caught in a circulating airflow including the air curtain.

Abstract: The invention provides a relatively simple and inexpensive power-assisted movable rack system, movement of which is controlled by an operator. The movable rack system comprises a plurality of movable racks, each of which includes a plurality of wheels, a DC motor turning forward or backward and reciprocating the movable rack, a pair of direction switches provided at opposite positions in moving directions of the movable rack, and an actuating circuit rotating the DC motor in one direction during the operation of one of the direction switches and rotating the DC motor in an opposite direction during the operation of the other direction switch. The DC motor applies dynamic braking force, so that movable racks can be stopped with a short braking distance.

Abstract: An environmental improvement device for a storage body and more particularly to a simplified, but highly effective device of that type wherein the stored articles are protected by a circulating flow of purified air that also prevents the entry of foreign objects into the storage area.

Abstract: Several embodiments of moveable partitioning systems wherein the relative positions of the partitions are controlled by non-contact sensors and various control systems therefore that permit controlled movement between the partitions to maintain either close spacing thereof of the establishment of predetermined width aisles between them. In addition the control system insures parallel movement of the partitions even if they are supported on a surface without tracks.

Abstract: Several embodiments of moveable partitions and controls that permit smooth operation and parallel movement even when they are trackless and that provide safety in operation in avoiding encounters with unexpected objects without unnecessarily stopping the operation when an object is not actually there.

Abstract: Storage with air purification function that can prevent the invasion of particles, harmful insects, or the like from the opening of the storage section and pollution of air in the storage section is provided.

Abstract: A number of embodiments of moveable storage racks and/or partitions that can be installed in existing buildings without the necessity of installing guide rails for them. In addition, the movement may be controlled so that the partitions move either in a parallel fashion or they can be rotated through an arc. The partitions are supported on drive and guide belts that are mounted on the underside thereof and which eliminate the need for the guide rails and spread the weight of the partition over a greater area of the floor so as to permit use in buildings which were not originally designed for such systems.

Abstract: A storage system with ambience conditioning facilities includes a desiccator for removing moisture from air and promoting convection, thereby maintaining articles stored therein in an optimum state for a long period of time. The environment maintained has stable humidity, is free of contaminants and suppresses aging of articles by humidity and microbes.
