DEVICE FOR AUTOMATICALLY CARRYING ALC PLATE

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To attain stable carrying of an ALC (Autoclaved Lightweight Concrete) plate by preventing air leak during vacuum suction thereof while minimizing the space for a waiting place of the ALC plate. SOLUTION: A plurality of suction cells 23 is formed within a suction duct 17 by dividing the internal space thereof by a partition plate 22. The partition plate 22 is set lower in height than the ceiling of the suction duct 17, whereby each space of the adsorption cells 23 communicates with a suction hose 18 through a space 24 above the cells. Further, an elastic member 25 such as a rubber member is adhered to an ALC plate-side end surface of the partition plate 22. The elastic member 25 is closely fitted to the upper surface of the ALC plate 100 in vacuum suction to prevent air leak. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT
