Abstract
An article transport vehicle of this disclosure includes a fall restricting device. A vehicle body of the article transport vehicle includes a first cover section, a second cover section, and a cover connecting section. The fall restricting device includes a pair of fall restricting members and a driving mechanism. The pair of fall restricting members each include a supported section, a pair of vertical extension sections, and a lower connecting section. The driving mechanism drives the pair of fall restricting members to move between a restricting position and a release position. At the restricting position, the pair of vertical extension sections overlap a stored article in a second direction view, and furthermore the lower connecting section overlaps the stored article in a vertical view. At the release position, the lower connecting section does not overlap the stored article in the vertical view.
