Claims (4)

Claims 1 »Automatic storage system, thus g e k e η η ζ calibrates that it has two blocks of storage racks with great depth, which in the horizontal direction in a number of rows and in a vertical direction either in several floors or in a single one Floor are arranged and serve as a (shelf) carriage rails that the blocks each other are opposite at a predetermined distance and the space between the two blocks as a track for a drive, such as a crane, a carriage without lifting capacity or the like. serves, and that at least one freely movable drive is provided along the track, which in each block at least one article receiving distribution point, at least one distribution point and either at least one article receiving / dispensing trolley or is assigned to at least one article receiving trolley and at least one dispensing trolley, wherein these trolleys carry out predetermined operations within the storage racks independently of the drive, whereby with the aid of the drive and the carriages, receiving and dispensing operations for numerous types of articles or objects are feasible. 2. Storage system according to claim 1, characterized in that each receiving distribution point in a block and the corresponding one Output distribution point in the other block or vice versa in the same horizontal position and in the same perpendicular height over the track of the drive are arranged and that a central part of a Transfer device, e.g. a conveyor mounted in the carriage, a forklift or the like., Is controllable so that he in the same horizontal position and in the same 509851/0449 perpendicular height as the middle parts of the receiving and the output distribution point can be brought to an article without receiving directly on a storage rack, so that a direct dispensing process at the receiving and the Output distribution point is feasible. 3 "Storage system according to claim 2, characterized in that the drive is controllable in such a way that, if one, the number of receiving and output distributors Excessive number of demand signals for article pickup and output operations is transmitted to the drive and also states of need for direct dispensing operations when in an article pick-up position in a block and a The output position in the drive located in the other block, a direct output at the receiving and output distribution point, at which the drive is located at this point in time, with preference over simple recording and outputs are performed, and the drive is then moved to perform a direct output of an adjacent receiving and dispensing distribution point, from which a signal for a direct dispensing operation is required is transferred, whereupon the drive advances to the next adjacent recording and Output manifolds, and that the drive that handles direct output operations in all of the intake and output manifolds is of which corresponding demand signals were issued, then to one Pick-up distribution point moved from which only a requirement signal for an item pick-up process is issued, to pick up a pallet and then either to a shelf shaft from which the pallet is used to carry out the Recording process is to be recorded, or moved to a shelf shaft from which a demand signal for a The pallet is dispensed in order to carry out an article dispensing process « 509851/0449 4. Storage system according to claim 2, characterized in that the drive is controllable in such a way that the drive changes the number of different ones when one is transferred Receiving and issuing distributors create an excessive number of demand signals for item receiving and issuing processes to the drive and when there are direct eject needs to perform a direct eject operation moved to a receiving and an output distribution point, from which a demand signal for a direct output is issued, depending on a predetermined order of preference for the various distribution points with preference over simple article receiving and dispensing processes, whereupon The drive moves in accordance with the predetermined order of preference for performing direct output operations progressively moves to other input and output hubs, whereupon the drive doing the direct output is located at all reception and output distribution points from which demand signals are issued for direct output has been carried out, moved to a receiving distributor from which only a demand signal for the pickup of a pallet is dispensed, and finally the drive is used to perform an item pickup operation to a shelf shaft from which the pallet is to be picked up, or to carry out an article dispensing process Moved to a shelf shaft, from which a demand signal for the output of the pallet is given will.
