Patent attributes
A plurality of transport controls selectively performed by a transport control device include a second transport control performed on a selected one of a first article transport device and a second article transport device as a target article transport device such that the target article transport device is moved only in a first path portion to transport articles when the target article transport device is the first article transport device, and that the target article transport device is moved only in a second path portion to transport the articles when the target article transport device is the second article transport device. An article storage facility includes a partition body that is switchable between an installed state in which the partition body is installed in a path boundary area serving as a boundary area between the first path portion and the second path portion in a movement path to shut off communication between the first path portion and the second path portion, and a retracted state in which the partition body is retracted from the path boundary area to open the path boundary area.
