Abstract: A control system performs a shipping process, a replenishing process, a moving process, and a returning process. The replenishing process is for, in a case in which the number of first-type articles located in a first warehouse has become less than or equal to a quantitative threshold, transporting the first-type articles located in a second warehouse to the first warehouse, thereby stocking the articles into the first warehouse while the articles are in containers. The moving process is for transporting second-type articles that have become the picking target articles and are located in the second warehouse to the first warehouse, thereby stocking the articles into the first warehouse while the articles are in the containers. The returning process is for transporting the containers accommodating the second-type articles that have been returned to the first warehouse upon completion of the shipping process, from the first warehouse to the second warehouse.

Abstract: A shield gate includes a door member disposed in a gap region located between an intra-area transport unit and an extra-area transport unit in a transport direction in a closed state in which the shield gate shields an opening, and is disposed at a position displaced from the gap region in an open state in which the shield gate opens the opening. A second interval is a length of the gap region that allows the door member to be disposed, during at least a part of a non-transport period, the length of the gap region is set to be greater than or equal to the second interval, and the shield gate is in the closed state, and, during the transport period, the shield gate is in the open state, and the length of the gap region is set to a first interval that is shorter than the second interval.

Abstract: A picking system is realized that can efficiently perform operations from collection to delivery of articles in a limited space. A picking system (1) includes: a multi-row sorting device (2) configured to sort the article into one of the plurality of rows of exits (21) and discharge the sorted article; a container supporting device (3) capable of supporting an accommodating container (B) on a plurality of rows of container supporting portions (32) until an article group that is a set of articles for the order is collected; and a transport device (4) configured to unload the accommodating container (B) in which the article is accommodated from the container supporting portion (32), and load an empty accommodating container (B) to the container supporting portion (32).
