Abstract
An automatic transport device 1 includes a holder 28 that has a slide surface 28a and holds a transport target object 6 on the slide surface 28a so as to be slidable in a front-rear direction, rails 20x and 20y disposed on the slide surface 28a, a base 22 connected to the rails 20x and 20y so as to be movable in the front-rear direction above the slide surface 28a, a drive motor 24 that slides the base 22 along the rails 20x and 20y, an extendable mechanism 23 that is disposed on the base 22 and is extendable outward from an end portion of the slide surface 28a in the front-rear direction, and a coupler 21 that is disposed at a distal end of the extendable mechanism 23 and coupled to a side surface of the transport target object 6.
Claims13
An automatic transport device that transports a transport target object to a predetermined location, the automatic transport device comprising:
- a holder that has a slide surface and holds the transport target object on the slide surface so as to be slidable in a first direction;
- a rail disposed on the slide surface;
- a base connected to the rail so as to be movable in the first direction above the slide surface;
- a first driver that slides the base along the rail;
- an extendable mechanism that is disposed on the base and that is extendable outward from an end portion of the slide surface in the first direction and extendable in the first direction;
- and
- a coupler that is disposed at a distal end of the extendable mechanism and coupled to a side surface of the transport target object.
