    摘要: A stacked container handling system includes an input section having an input conveyor onto which a box, containing a multiplicity of empty stacked containers arranged in a matrix of rows and columns of vertical stacks of containers, is manually or automatically placed in upside down position. Following removal of the box to expose the matrix of vertical stacks of containers, the vertical stacks of containers are moved forward by the input conveyor to a hinged lay-down table that rotates from an upright position in which one row at a time of the stacked containers is received to a horizontal position from which the received row of stacked containers is unloaded. The stacked container handling system may also include an output section having an output accumulation conveyor that serves to move a desired number of horizontal stacks of containers onto a lift table having a hinged bed that rotates from a horizontal position to an upright position. When the hinged bed is in the upright position, the stacks of containers retained thereon are engaged by an output conveyor that unloads the stacks as a row of vertical stacks of containers and that moves forward incrementally to allow sequential unloading of subsequent rows of vertical stacks of containers from the hinged bed of the lift table until a desired matrix of rows and columns of vertical stacks of containers has been accumulated on the output conveyor. Following manual or automatic placement of a box over the matrix of vertical stacks of containers, the box and matrix of vertical stacks of containers covered thereby are conveyed to a box turner that turns the box 180 degrees to the upright position and then deposits the upright box of vertical stacks of containers onto a roller or other conveyor.
