<p>An object is to provide a ceiling transport vehicle in which articles may be transferred precisely while allowing its travel portion to travel smoothly along a set travel path. A ceiling transport vehicle having a pair of guiding bodies (40) which guide the travel portion (16) along the set travel path by contacting each of right and left lateral sides of the guide rail (4) comprises a pair of contacting members (41) that are supported by the travel portion such that the contacting members can be moved away from each other and moved toward each other in a lateral width direction that is perpendicular to a travel direction of the travel portion, and switching portion (42) for moving each of the pair of contacting members (41) away from each other and toward each other to switch between a holding state in which the travel portion is positioned and held in an article transfer position in the lateral width direction with respect to the guide rail (4) by causing the pair of contacting members (41) to contact right and left lateral sides of the guide rail (4), and a holding release state in which the pair of contacting members (41) are spaced apart from the guide rail (4).</p> |
