Abstract
A first guiding body and a second guiding body are arranged in a positional relationship according to which the position in the vertical direction of the upper end portion of a first movement path of a first moving body and the position in the vertical direction of the lower end portion of a second movement path of a second moving body are overlapped with each other. The first moving body includes a first transfer apparatus, and the second moving body includes a second transfer apparatus. Relay support platforms that can support articles are arranged at positions that are not overlapped with the first movement path or the second movement path, and that enable the articles to be transferred from both the first transfer apparatus and the second transfer apparatus.
