A portable visual inspection apparatus comprises a box including a lower box portion and an upper box portion. The upper box portion defines a first accommodation space and is connected to the lower box portion such that is capable of being opened and closed. A visual inspection device is installed in the first accommodation space and is adapted to be switched between an expanded configuration in which the visual inspection device is at least partially expanded for photographing an image of an article, and a folded configuration in which the visual inspection device is at least partially folded for storage in the first accommodation space. A support platform is arranged in the lower box portion and defines an inspection area below the visual inspection device in the expanded configuration. The portable visual inspection apparatus is switchable between a use configuration and a transportation configuration.

An article support device has a pair of support platforms arranged symmetrically and opposite to each other. Each of the support platforms includes a support frame, a support plate disposed on a top of the support frame and having a horizontal support top surface, and at least one positioning block installed on the horizontal support top surface. The horizontal support top surfaces of the support plates are located at a same height position. The article is supported on the horizontal support top surfaces and positioned between the positioning blocks on the support plates. An accommodation space is defined between the support plates and the support frames, and an automated guided vehicle moves into the accommodation space. An article carried on the article support device is loadable onto the automatic guided vehicle or the article carried on the automatic guided vehicle is unloadable onto the article support device.
