Abstract: A vertical storage and retrieval system has a light bar at the operator's station that visually indicates selected bins on a conveyor shelf. The light bar comprises an elongated rectangular tubing flush with the work surface. Several identical electric modules are connected end-to-end and inserted into the tubing. Each module has an array of parallel circuits, each containing a light emitting diode, connected to an electric source. Through circuits connect the terminal circuit of each array of parallel circuits to an electrical sink. A branch circuit of each parallel circuit connects with the corresponding parallel circuit on the adjacent module. The circuits are arranged such that the end module remote from the electric source and sink may be severed and a portion of the module discarded without affecting the operation of the light bar.

Abstract: A limit switch assembly for mounting on mobile storage units has first and second limit switches secured in spaced relationship. A switch operating rod is spring biased to extend from the assembly by a predetermined amount into an open aisle or where there is no proximate storage unit and there is a cam element on the rod which holds the first switch in closed circuit condition to enable a motor on the unit and drive it into the open aisle space and when the rod touches a stop as the unit means reaches the limit of its travel the cam shifts to open the first switch to initiate a deceleration interval which terminates when the cam retracts enough to open the second switch which disables the motor. The rod on the limit switch assembly of the next trailing storage unit begins to extend when the leading unit moves a small amount in which case the cam on the trailing unit only needs to move a small amount to close the first limit switch on the trailing unit so it begins to accelerate while the leading unit is still accelerating. The trailing unit and any subsequent trailing units go through the same deceleration and stopping cycle performed by the first unit.

Abstract: An electrical control module has electrical components on a circuit board inside of a box which is open on a side opposite of its bottom. A molding section is mounted to one side wall of the box. This molding has the same cross-sectional configuration as a molding which is installed on the edge of the side wall of a mobile storage unit. The side wall molding has a gap in it. The end wall of the storage unit is composed of two parallel upstanding panel members which are spaced apart from each other. The molding extends up to the gap from below and down to the gap from above. The control module slides into the gap and into the space between the panels. The section of molding on the module becomes flush with the molding on the storage unit when the module is inserted in the gap. Means are provided for releasably locking the module in the end wall of the storage unit.

Abstract: A plurality of movable storage units each have a reversible motor for driving them in the proper direction in response to a user command to open an aisle between selected units. There is a microprocessor-based programmable control module on each unit and there is a structurally similar module that acts as a system controller. Four control lines interconnect the modules. One line is for sending digital command data away from the system controller and another is for sending sensing data toward the system controller. Another line is for resync pulses transmitted from the system controller to the microprocessors simultaneously. The processor in each module responds to a resync pulse by initiating definition of a specific number of time slots for containing individual high or low bits to enable serial transmission of encoded data representative of commands and sensed conditions. The modules on each unit interpret or sense such conditions as to whether their start pushbutton has been pressed, whether their limit switches are closed to indicate proximity with another unit and whether a safety switch is open or closed. This and other sensed information is sent serially to the system controller in serial form for being interpreted and the system controller sends back commands for enabling the unit modules to interpret the direction and limits of unit movement.

Abstract: A presence detector for detecting the presence of a heat source, including a motion detector having a predetermined field of view. The motion detector is activated by movement of a heat source a certain minimum amount within that predetermined field of view. An actuator is provided for moving the motion detector sufficient to change the position of the field of view by at least that minimum amount. The actuator includes a shape memory alloy wire. The motion detector is movably or rotatably mounted to a support. The actuator is connected at one end to the motion detector and at the other to the support. The actuator also includes a biasing or return spring for re-stretching the shape memory alloy wire back to its original length once it has contracted. A strain relief spring is also provided, having a spring rate substantially higher than that of the return spring, for relieving strain on the shape memory alloy wire in case the detector rotatable mounting seizes or otherwise is prevented from moving freely.

Abstract: A control circuit for continually testing a photoelectric detector. The detector includes a light source, and a photoelectric receiver having a predetermined drop-out time, attached to a movable storage carriage, spaced apart and substantially sightaligned. The carriage has a reversible electric motor which is controlled by the control circuit, including at least two relays, the contacts of which are connected in series so that the contacts of both must be closed in order for the motor to be energized. The relay drop-out time is substantially longer than the receiver drop-out time. In the circuit, an inverter is connected between the second coil and the light source. This inverter inverts signals received from the second coil and passes them to the light source so that receipt of a signal at the receiver causes the light source to turn off, in turn causing a loss of signal at the receiver, resulting in the light source turning on. An oscillation is thus established which passses through each component of the monitoring circuit and the detector. The drop-out time of the relays is long enough that the relays stay closed unless the oscillation is stopped, either by a failure of the monitoring circuit or light source or receiver, or by the light beam being broken. In either case, one or both of the relays opens, disabling the carriage from moving.
