DEVICE FOR MOVING AT ELEVATED SPOT ON ARTICLE SHELF

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To perform work in a stable state at the same time when performing parallel work at the same time above and below the same article shelf, by preventing an extent of the floor area by simplifying a facility constitution of a storage facility for arranging a multistory article shelf. SOLUTION: While arranging a cross beam 3 in front of an elevated spot part of the multistory article shelf 2, the cross beam 3 is also arranged in the same height position in front of the oppositely arranged other multistory article shelf 2, and these cross beams 3 are formed as a rail of a traveling body 4, and the traveling body 4 can be moved in the horizontal direction. When a hand cannot reach on the first floor, a person getting on the traveling body 4 performs inlet-outlet work by moving to the front of a desired article shelf. In this case, the traveling body 4 can be driven by both an electric motor and manual operation. In driving by the electric motor, the traveling body cn be driven only when simultaneously operating both hand switch and foot switch. A safety net 23 is stretched under the traveling body 4.
