摘要: A system for selecting one of multiple paths in a linear drive system includes track segments having a first drive member and at least one mover having a second drive member for the linear drive system. Each mover includes a drive surface oriented toward the track segment when the at least one mover is driven along the track. Each mover also includes a first channel and a second channel extending along the drive surface. A switch track segment includes a first path and a second path along which the at least one mover may travel, at least one first pin positioned along the first path, and at least one second pin positioned along the second path. The first and second pins are extendable to engage the first and second channels of the at least one mover to direct the mover along either the first path or the second path, respectively.

摘要: A container-handling vehicle includes a lifting shaft having first and second end sections, a motor for rotating the lifting shaft, a lifting frame for releasably connecting to a storage container, and a first pair of lifting bands and a second pair of lifting bands connecting the lifting shaft to the lifting frame. Each lifting band has a first end connected to the lifting shaft and a second end connected to the lifting frame. Each pair of lifting bands has a first lifting band connected at the first end section of the lifting shaft and a second lifting band connected at the second end section of the lifting shaft. The first pair of lifting bands extends in a substantially horizontal direction from the lifting shaft towards a band guiding assembly arranged to change the direction of the first pair of lifting bands to extend in a vertical direction. The second pair of lifting bands extends in a vertical direction from the lifting shaft at the side of the lifting shaft facing away from the band guiding assembly.

摘要: A travel route of a transport facility includes a guide zone in which a guide rail is disposed and a non-guide zone in which the guide rail is not disposed. A control system causes a guide drive section to execute a confirmation operation to drive a first guided section in a width direction Y in response to occurrence of a specific event in which a transport vehicle loses information on a travel position thereof, determines that the transport vehicle is in the non-guide zone in response to the first guided section moving from a first position to a second position or from the second position to the first position, and determines that the transport vehicle is in the guide zone in response to the first guided section being prevented from moving from the first position to the second position or from the second position to the first position.

摘要: During a switch from a first state in which a transport vehicle is connected to a first access point in a first access point group to a second state in which the transport vehicle is connected to a second access point in a second access point group, or a switch from the second state to the first state, an upper-level controller executes network segment switching processing including restarting a communication controller and a protocol stack, while maintaining a physical layer device in an active state.

摘要: The disclosure relates to an indicator assembly for use in push-back storage systems, comprising a rail having an indicator portion comprising an opening therethrough and an indicator mounted at the indicator portion. When a cart wheel rollingly engages the indicator portion, the indicator is triggered thereby providing an indication of passage of the wheel over the indicator portion. The disclosure also relates to a rail cleaning assembly comprising a frame configured to be mounted to a cart wheel that rollingly engages a rail along the length of the rail; and at least one cleaning element positioned to engage the rail, thereby removing debris accumulated on the rail as the wheel rollingly engages the rail.

摘要: An article transport vehicle (200) has: a carrier base (202) configured for movement along a guideway and a pair of gripping arms (216), each gripping arm (216) having a first end (216a) connected to the carrier base (202) and a second end (216b) protruding from the carrier base (202). The pair of gripping arms (216) is movable between a closed position configured for holding an article (302) and an open position configured for releasing the article (302). The article transport vehicle (200) further has a closure mechanism (238) for moving the pair of gripping arms (216) between the closed position and the open position. The closure mechanism (238) is configured for biasing the pair of gripping arms (216) to the closed position and moving the pair of gripping arms (216) to the open position when the carrier base (202) is positioned at a predetermined portion of the guideway.
