行っていた。SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In the above-mentioned prior art product storage device, since the linear product introduction path that connects the inlet and the serpentine type product storage shelf is provided in an inclined manner, Usually, the rolled product is introduced into the product storage shelf while rolling along the slope, but the rolled product rotates in a direction different from the rolling direction in the product introduction path, That is, when the side surface of the rolled product is not directed toward the product storage shelf but toward the side wall in the product introduction path, the top surface or the bottom surface of the rolled product faces the product storage shelf. Therefore, the product stops in the product introduction path. In order to prevent product clogging as described above, it is necessary to regulate the width of the input port and product introduction path according to the length of the product, and the width of the input port and product introduction path was set for each product. .
