In a container raising/lowering conveyance apparatus according to the present invention, pairs of secondary movable bases (30a, 30b/31a, 31b) capable of being moved closer to and away from each other in the Y direction are provided to a pair of main movable bases (21a, 21b) provided so as to be capable of being moved closer to and away from each other in the X direction. Four gripping raising/lowering bodies (45a-46b) are separately supported on the four secondary movable bases so as to be capable of being raised and lowered. Vertical rod-shaped main bodies (66), which are supported on each of the main movable bases so as to be capable of being raised and lowered, and which are raised and lowered as a result of being driven by raising/lowering drive means, are disposed in intermediate positions between the pairs of gripping raising/lowering bodies in the Y direction. Upper ends of the vertical rod-shaped main bodies (66) and upper ends of the gripping raising/lowering bodies at both sides of the vertical rod-shaped main bodies (66) in the Y direction are coupled by coupling means (51A, 51B) which allow the gripping raising/lowering bodies to be moved closer to and away from each other in the Y direction. |
