<p>A plurality of goods contained at random or in a predetermined arrangement, particularly in a three rows or more in a container (20) such as a corrugated fiberboard box or a plastic container, etc., are stored in a goods storage device (16) arranged in no more than two rows and having a plurality of goods storage sections (73). After the goods have been shifted to a goods drop-out device (17) having a plurality of goods storing sections (76) arranged in no more than two rows, a shutter (78) disposed along a side surface portion of the goods drop-out device (17) is opened and shut by an actuator (105), so that the goods which have been shifted to the goods storage section (74) of the goods drop-out device (17) are discharged. By shifting the goods stored in a storage apparatus (13) to a goods take-out device (16) which has moved toward the storage apparatus side, a shifting operation of goods can be performed with ease. By reengaging a partition (90D) in an engaging portion selected in such a manner as to correspond to the sizes, configurations, etc. of goods, the goods can be effectively stored and many kinds of goods can be reliably taken out.</p> |
