The shelf members  6  and  7  are lifted and lowered by the lifting and lowering mechanism  8 , whereby the placing table A (B) of the shelf member  6  ( 7 ) which is one of the shelf members  6  and  7  is adjusted to be on the same height as the placing table B (A) of the other shelf member  7  ( 6 ), and with this state, an object is transferred from the placing table of one of the shelf members to the placing table of the other shelf member. The shelf members  6  and  7  are again lifted and lowered to adjust the placing table B (A) of the other shelf member  7  ( 6 ) to be on the same height as the placing table A (B) which belongs to the shelf member  6  ( 7 ) and which is positioned on a different height, returns the object to the shelf member  6  ( 7 ), and transfers the object to the placing table A (B) which is positioned on a different height from the previous placing table A (B).
