Patent attributes
An article transport vehicle is provided in which it is difficult for the transported article support portions to interfere with the supported portion of the transported article while reducing transmission of vibrations to the transported article, during a travel of the travel member or during a vertical movement of the vertically movable portion. A support unit which is vertically moved relative to a travel member is provided with a guiding supporting portion for guiding and supporting transported article support portions for supporting a supported portion of a transported article such that the transported article support portions can be moved to support positions and to retracted positions, and a damper element which is located between a vertically movable portion and the guiding supporting portion and receives load from the guiding supporting portion and which is elastically deformable in a vertical direction.
