Abstract: A ceiling storage system includes an overhead transport vehicle and a storage rack. The overhead transport vehicle has a traveling section traveling on rails arranged in a grid pattern, and a body section suspended from the traveling section and configured to hold an article on an underside of the rails. The storage rack has a plurality of suspension members extending in an up-down direction, and having a middle portion provided with a rail support and a bottom end provided with a unit support, and a shelf unit and a scaffolding unit supported by the unit support of the suspension members. The corner portion of the shelf unit and the corner portion of the scaffolding unit are supported by the unit support.

Abstract: An overhead storage system includes an overhead transport vehicle including a traveling unit configured to travel on a rail arranged in a grid pattern and a body section suspended from the traveling unit and configured to hold an article below the rail; a storage rack disposed below the rail; and a control unit configured to control operation of the overhead transport vehicle. The body section includes a transfer device capable of transferring the article to and from the storage rack. In the storage rack, a plurality of article placement areas on which the article is able to be placed by the transfer device are set in a storage area corresponding to each of cells forming a matrix in the grid pattern of the rail.

Abstract: A stocker includes a transporter that travels through a traveling space within a stocker and transports an article, a pair of rails that flank the traveling space extend in parallel or substantially in parallel in a horizontal direction, platforms movable along the pair of rails, and a housing provided on a stocker outer side of a door that separates an inside and an outside of the stocker, and that houses the platforms. The pair of rails extend from the inside of the stocker to the housing through an opening directly under the door. At least one of the platforms includes a fence in an upright standing manner and an upper end of the fence is higher than an upper end of the opening. The platform that includes the fence extends across the inside of the stocker and the outside of the stocker via the opening while the fence is arranged on a stocker inner side.

Abstract: A stocker includes a wall that separates an inside and an outside of the stocker, a storage area on an inner side of the wall and in which articles are stored, a fan on the wall to draw in outside air and introduce the outside air into the inside of the stocker, a control panel storage provided on the inner side of the wall and laterally to the storage area to store a control panel, a first thermal insulation layer on a wall side of the control panel storage, and a second thermal insulation layer on a storage area side of the control panel storage.

Abstract: A stocker includes a wall that separates inside and outside of the stocker, a storage area on an inner side of the wall to store articles, a duct on a wall side of the storage area and extending in a vertical direction, an inlet at an upper end of the duct to introduce air flowing downward into the duct, a flow regulator to regulate an airflow between an upper side and a lower side of the duct, blowout openings on a storage area side of the duct to blow out air to the storage area, and a fan on a lower side of the flow regulator of the duct to draw in outside air and introduce the outside air into the duct.
