Problems solved by technology

Using a single product stack in this case may be impractical as a very large footprint would be required to accommodate all the stacks required
Additionally, it may be desirable to store only a small number of some items, such as perishable goods or infrequently ordered goods, making single-product stacking an inefficient solution

Embodiment Construction

[0061] Figure 5 A load handling device 100 according to one embodiment of the invention is shown. The load handling facility 100 includes a vehicle 102 equipped with a winch or crane mechanism to lift storage containers or boxes 106 (also known as totes) from above. Crane mechanism includes winch cable and gripper plate. The gripper plate is configured to grip the top of the container 106 to lift the container from the stack of containers 106 in a storage system of the type shown in FIGS. 1-4 . It should be understood that when the movement device 188 is activated, the height of the load handling facility will change.

[0062] see also Figure 6 and Figure 7 , the vehicle 102 includes an upper portion 112 and a lower portion 114 .

[0063] The lower part 114 is fitted with two sets of wheels 116, 118 which run on rails provided at the top of the frame of the storage system. At least one wheel in each set 116, 118 is driven to enable the vehicle 102 to move along the tra...

Abstract

A storage system and loading processing equipment for lifting and moving containers stacked in the storage system are described. The storage system includes multiple tracks or guide rails (22a, 22b). The plurality of rails or guide rails is arranged in a lattice pattern (14) above the stack of containers. The lattice pattern includes a plurality of lattice spaces and each stack is located in the occupied space of only a single lattice space. The loading processing equipment is configured to move laterally on tracks or guide rails above the stack. The loading processing equipment includes a container receiving space located above the rails or guide rails when in use, and lifting equipment arranged to lift the containers from the stacks into the container receiving space. The loading processing equipment includes a mechanism moving move laterally in one of the two transverse directions in the way that a first set of wheels or a second set of wheels are selectively engage the first set of rails or rails or the second set of rails or rails (22a or 22b).

Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of a Chinese patent application with an application date of March 10, 2017 and an application number of "201780016442.7" entitled "Method and device for extracting units from a storage system". technical field [0002] The invention relates to a device for retrieving cells from a storage system. In particular, but not exclusively, the present invention relates to a robotic device for handling storage containers or boxes in a warehouse comprising racks of stacked units. [0003] This application claims priority from UK patent application number GB1604100.6 filed on 10 March 2016, the entire content of which is incorporated herein by reference. Background technique [0004] Several commercial and industrial activities require systems capable of storing and retrieving a large number of different products. One known system for storing and retrieving items from multiple product lines involves arranging storage boxes or containe...
