Cartridge housing cell

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE:To miniaturize a device and to house a cartridge with high efficiency by enabling plural cartridges to be rotated centering perpendicular shafts housed in radial shape from an outside plane at a prescribed position on the same plane. CONSTITUTION:The cartridge 2 is housed in a prescribed housing part 16a in plural housing parts 16a in a housing cell 16 provided separately on the same plane to house the cartridge in the radial shape from the outside plane. The housing cell 16 is formed in circular cylindrical shape, and is comprised so as to be rotated by a desired angle by a rotary mechanism 22 centering the perpendicular shaft 20 passing the center of the housing cell. Meanwhile, a handling mechanism 19 is comprised of only a mechanism to move a hand 17 in upper/lower directions and forward/backward directions, and the mechanism itself is not moved by confronting the hand 17 with the outside plane of the housing cell 16 and fixing them in parallel. Therefore, no wide installing space is required for the handling mechanism 19.
