摘要: A sortation conveyor has an endless apron supported for longitudinal movement on an elongate frame. An induction conveyor deposits articles on an offset lateral portion of a top conveying run of the apron. A pin guide assembly is coupled between the elongate frames and is upwardly presented to selectively receive the pin of pushers that laterally move across the apron. An upstream pre-sort selection thereof positions articles from the offset lateral portion to an opposite lateral portion of the top conveying run. A downstream divert section of the pin guide assembly selectively diverts the articles to a divert target on the corresponding lateral side to the selected one of offset lateral positions and the opposite lateral position.

摘要: A conveyor carriage movable on a guide rail. The conveyor carriage includes a conveyor frame; a pair of side rails spaced apart from each other; and a load carrying portion coupled to the pair of side rails. A drop-down plate hingedly mounted to the conveyor frame and positioned in between the pair of side rails. The drop-down plate is pivotable between an open position and a closed position, wherein the drop-down plate encloses a component of the conveyor carriage in the closed position. The conveyor carriage to pick up and deposit loads from and to a load handling station. The load handling station including a control box with a pivotable lid to enclose one or more components of the load handling station in the closed position.

摘要: A transport device for storing and retrieving loads into and out of storage racks. The transport device including a load handling module and a power module. The load handling module includes a load carrying portion, a load handling device with a pair of extendable arms to extend and retract relative to the load carrying portion towards and away from the storage racks. A pair of support wheels to support a weight of the loads while the extendable arms extract the loads from the storage rack into the load carrying portion. A pair of side guides to position the retrieved load on the load carrying portion. The load handling device is attached to a mounting platform with an attachment bracket having an elongated groove. Further, the power module includes a collector shoe assembly pivotable between a conducting position and a non-conducting position using a movable arm and a locking mechanism.

摘要: In various embodiments, a goods to operator workstation (10) is provided. The goods to operator workstation (10) include an upper level (100). The upper level includes an upper level conveyor (150) and one or more upper level container bays (140A,140B) configured to receive and present one of the one or more upper level containers (185A-185C). The goods to operator workstation also includes at least one connector panel (120) extending from the upper level. The goods to operator workstation further includes a lower level (105) coupled to the at least one connector panel. The lower level is configured to receive one or more lower level containers (175A-175D). A gap (101) is defined between the upper level and lower level that is sized to allow the one or more lower containers to be placed on the lower level.

摘要: Devices, methods, and computer program products for article retrieval are provided. An example article retrieval device includes a frame and a pair of loading arms movably attached to the frame that move between a retracted position and an extended position. The device includes an engagement structure movably attached to at least one of the pair of loading arms that moves between a stored position and a deployed position. The device further includes a sensing device coupled with the pair of loading arms and a computing device operably coupled with the pair of loading arms, the at least one engagement structure, and the sensing device. The computing device causes the pair of loading arms to extend from the retracted position to a position proximate a first article and deploys the at least one engagement structure based upon sensor data generated by the sensing device.
