Abstract
A conveyance system which improves the stability of a mounting base raised and lowered along a guide rail is achieved. A conveyance system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a mounting base with a groove guided along a guide rail extending in a vertical direction and a lifting mechanism configured to raise and lower the mounting base. When a direction of a movement of an item to be carried out from the mounting base is defined as a forward direction and a direction opposite to the forward direction is defined as a rearward direction, the conveyance system raises and lowers the mounting base while pressing a side surface on a rear side of the groove against the guide rail.
