ABSTRACT:
A gravity-feed chute-rack storage system is provided with at least two pairs of longitudinal chute-rack rails in the form of two chute-rack pipes sheathed in a plastic resin material having good sliding properties to form a chute-rack unit. Rail supporting members on at least the front and rear sides among the front, intermediate and rear sides of the chute-rack unit are coupled together with at least one vertical coupling member. Further, a vibrator is fitted to any one of the rail supporting members so as to help stock smoothly slide thereon by transmitting vibrations from the vibrator to each chute-rack rail efficiently via the vertical coupling member and the respective rail supporting members. Accordingly, stock efficiency is made improvable without reducing work efficiency as a result of wasteful moves on the part of workers.
