    Abstract: A sack includes a flexible sack body and a mouth that includes two separable lips that form a mouth opening when the lips are separated from one another, and that close the opening when the lips are adjacent to one another. Closing structure is configured to enable a separating force that is applied to the lips to separate the lips from one another to form the mouth opening, and to bring the lips adjacent to one another to close the mouth opening in the absence of the applied separating force.

    Abstract: A multi-level sorting system may include a multi-level structure comprising: a plurality of chutes; a plurality of distribution floors, to deliver items for distribution to any of a plurality of unique address bins, each of the distribution floors located at a different level and comprising a network of lanes for independently operating a plurality of transporter carts on the network of lanes. The network of lanes of each of the floors includes a feeding lane to transport the items for distribution to at least one loading lane; a plurality of automated inductors along said at least one loading lane, to pick one of the items and load that item onto one of the transport carts; and a plurality of unloading lanes with unique unloading positions arranged so that unique unloading positions that are located at different floors and that are assigned to a single unique address bin, are each substantially aligned with an inlet of a shared chute of the plurality of chutes.

    Abstract: A carrier includes a chassis that is configured to travel from a loading point to an unloading point and a tillable platform is mounted on the chassis. A resilient piston is connected between the chassis and the tillable platform, the piston configured to store energy when the platform is rotated from an unloading orientation to a loading orientation. The platform, when in the loading orientation, is configured to stably support one or more items that are loaded onto the platform at the loading point. A restraining mechanism is configured to maintain the platform in the loading orientation and a triggering mechanism is operable to release the restraining mechanism, releasing the stored energy of the piston to exert a restoring force to tilt the platform from the loading orientation to the unloading orientation.

    Abstract: A product selection system includes a robotic arm that is controllable to grip and manipulate product items of different types that are stored in a plurality of storage units that at least partially surround a central space in which the robotic arm is configured to operate. Each storage unit is configured to store a plurality of the product items. A controller is configured to control the robotic arm to remove each product item of an order of a plurality of the product items that are stored in the plurality of the storage units from the storage unit in which that product item is stored to an item conveyor for assembling of all of the plurality of product items of the order.

    Abstract: An order fulfillment system includes a plurality of stock locations for storing items, and movable collection containers, each configured to hold one or more of the items. A network of tracks along which each of the collection containers is configured to move in a single direction includes junctions where at least two of the tracks intersect, each collection container being controllable at a junction to continue travelling along one of the tracks. The network of tracks is configured to enable the collection containers to move to the stock locations. A controller is configured to receive a list of ordered items, to determine a selected stock location at which each ordered item is stored, to calculate a route along the network of tracks to bring a collection container to each selected stock location, and to control movement of that collection container along the calculated route to the selected stock locations.
