Embodiment Construction

[0074] 6.1. Example of an embodiment of the invention

[0075] figure 1 and figure 2 An example of an embodiment of an order delivery system 10 according to the invention implemented at a supermarket site is shown in plan view and perspective view, respectively.

[0076] This system 10 comprises a transport module 11 with a bag circulation track 12 formed by an assembly of rail sections fitted with motorized chains.

[0077] In this embodiment of the invention, each bag 13 is suspended by a hook from a link of a chain in the track. The movement of the bags along a part of the track is achieved automatically by driving the chains mounted in the track, and conveying means, such as pushers, are provided for moving the bags 13 from one chain to the other.

[0078] The track 12 is located in a warehouse 14 adjacent to the sales area of ​​the supermarket and extends outside the warehouse by passages 15 leading to three order pick-up stations 16 which have openings to allow cus...

Abstract

The invention relates to a system for automatically delivering orders in bags to an extraction location outside a building. According to the invention, such a system comprises:-means for signaling and / or detecting the presence of a customer in the vicinity of the extraction location; -a transport module mounted at a height, comprising:-a plurality of elements for suspending bags at the travel track; means for automatically moving the suspension means on the track; -means for actuating said automatic displacement means, the automatic displacement means being configured to displace the bag, in which portions of said order have been stored, to said extraction position when said signaling and / or detecting means issues a signal confirming that said user is present in the vicinity of said extraction position.

Description

1. Technical field [0001] The field of the invention is logistics in shops and warehouses, in particular the transport and sorting of items. [0002] More specifically, the present invention relates to a system and method for delivering orders. [0003] The invention applies in particular to the collection of food or consumer products at collection points, also known as "drives", and to the delivery of goods at relay points. 2. Background technology [0004] In stores that offer a delivery service at the collection point for orders placed online (known as a "drive-through" service), one or more pickers store the order items collected in bags on shelves while waiting for customers Come and collect your order. Sorting of items for an order can be performed during the pick-up session or when the order is put on the shelves. [0005] This order picking technique has many disadvantages. [0006] It requires a lot of storage space to store orders and requires a lot of labor. ...
