Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Transporteinrichtung mit wenigstens einem Regalbediengerät zur Entnahme und Eingabe einer Last, insbesondere Personenkraftfahrzeuge in übereinander angeordnete Fächer von Regalen sowie zur Überbringung der Last zu einer Ein- und/oder Auslagerstation nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1.The invention relates to a transport device with at least one storage and retrieval unit for removing and entering a load, in particular passenger vehicles into compartments of shelves arranged one above the other and for transferring the load to a storage and / or retrieval station according to the preamble of claim 1.

Ein derartiges durch die FR-A-1 291 812 bekanntes Regalbediengerät wird nicht nur allgemein für Material lager verwendet sondern insbesondere auch, worauf nachfolgend ohne die Vornahme einer Einschränkung nur noch Bezug genommen wird, für sogenannte Autosilos, bei denen die Kraftfahrzeuge zwischen Eingangs- bzw. Ausgangsbereich und den als Parkplatz dienenden Regalen durch das Regalbediengerät hin- und hertransportiert werden.Such a storage and retrieval device known from FR-A-1 291 812 is not only used generally for material storage but also, in particular, to which reference is made below without making a restriction, for so-called autosilos in which the motor vehicles between the entrance or The exit area and the shelves serving as parking spaces are transported back and forth by the storage and retrieval unit.

Dabei werden die Kraftfahrzeuge zwischen Ein- und/oder Auslagerstation bzw. Regalfach und Hubtraverse üblicherweise durch horizontal ausfahrbare Teleskopgabeln, die die Kraftfahrzeuge untergreifen, oder durch Mittel, die die Kraftfahrzeuge in schubfachartiger Weise erfassen, hin- und herbewegt.The motor vehicles are usually moved back and forth between the storage and / or retrieval station or shelf compartment and lifting traverse by means of horizontally extendable telescopic forks that reach under the motor vehicles or by means that grasp the motor vehicles in a drawer-like manner.

Bei dem genannten Autosilo ist es überlicherweise so, daß dieses nebeneinander eine Öffnung zum Hereinfahren und eine Öffnung zum Herausfahren aufweist. Ein hereingefahrenes Fahrzeug wird dann durch das Regalbediengerät übernommen und in eins der Regalfächer gebracht. Wird ein Fahrzeug wieder abgeholt, so bringt das Regalbediengerät dieses auf den Platz hinter der Ausfahröffnung, wo der Benutzer es dann nach außen fahren kann. Damit dabei ein vorwärts in das Silo hereingefahrenes Fahrzeug beim Herausfahren nicht rückwärts bewegt werden muß, was in vielen Fällen nicht nur als unangenehm empfunden wird sondern auch aus Platzgründen oft mit Schwierigkeiten verbunden ist, ist das Kraftfahrzeug über eine entsprechende Einheit der Hubtraverse auf dieser um wenigstens 180° drehbar, so daß es zum Herausfahren wieder vorwärts steht.In the car silo it is usually the case that this side by side an opening for driving in and has an opening for moving out. A vehicle that is driven in is then taken over by the storage and retrieval device and brought into one of the storage compartments. If a vehicle is picked up again, the storage and retrieval unit brings it to the place behind the exit opening, where the user can then drive it outside. So that a vehicle driven forwards into the silo does not have to be moved backwards when driving out, which is not only perceived as unpleasant in many cases but is also often associated with difficulties due to space constraints, the motor vehicle has a corresponding unit of the lifting cross member on it by at least Can be rotated through 180 ° so that it is forward again to be pulled out.

Als Parkmöglichkeiten kommen dabei grundsätzlich das Längsparken oder auch das Querparken in Frage. Beim Längsparken werden die Fahrzeuge bzw. die die Fahrzeuge tragenden Paletten in Längsrichtung des Regalganges gehalten und quer zu dessen Erstreckung in die Regalfächer eingebracht. Beim Querparken werden die Fahrzeuge um 90° gedreht in die Regalfächer ein- bzw. wieder ausgefahren. In beiden Fällen kann die Ein- und Auslagerung der Fahrzeuge an den Längsenden des Regalganges erfolgen. Es besteht jedoch auch die Möglichkeit, an den Regalseiten ein oder mehrere Fächer als Ein- und Auslagerstation auszubilden je nachdem, wie dies die baulichen Gegebenheiten des Autosilos als zweckmäßig erscheinen lassen.Longitudinal parking or transverse parking are basically possible parking options. During longitudinal parking, the vehicles or the pallets carrying the vehicles are held in the longitudinal direction of the rack aisle and are introduced into the rack compartments transversely to their extension. When parking at a right angle, the vehicles are rotated into and out of the shelves by 90 °. In both cases, the vehicles can be stored and retrieved at the longitudinal ends of the rack aisle. However, there is also the possibility of designing one or more compartments on the shelf sides as storage and retrieval stations, depending on how this makes the structural conditions of the autosilo seem appropriate.

Durch die FR-A-2 609 085, die im übrigen aber eine andere Gattung eines Autosilos betrifft, ist es darüber hinaus bekannt, die Kraftfahrzeuge zur leichteren Handhabung auf Paletten abzustellen und mit diesen zu bewegen.From FR-A-2 609 085, which, however, relates to a different type of car silo, it is also known to park the motor vehicles on pallets for easier handling and to move them.

Schließlich ist es durch die US-A-2 840 187 an sich bekannt, zwei Regalbediengeräte aneinander vorbeifahrbar vorzusehen. Diese gestatten das Aneinandervorbeifahren jedoch nur, wenn die Last bei einem Regalbediengerät nach oberhalb des anderen und beim anderen nach unterhalb des einen Regalbediengerätes verfahren ist, was in jedem Falle des Vorbeifahrens zusätzliche unnötige Hubbewegungen erfordert.Finally, it is known per se from US-A-2 840 187 to provide two storage and retrieval devices that can be moved past one another. However, these only allow one another to move past each other if the load on one storage and retrieval machine has been moved above the other and on the other below the one storage and retrieval device, which in any case requires additional unnecessary lifting movements.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es daher, bei Handhabung von auf Paletten abgestellten Lasten die eingangs genannte Transporteinrichtung mit zwei unnötige Hubbewegungen vermeidenden Regalbediengeräten auszustatten.It is therefore an object of the invention to equip the above-mentioned transport device with two storage and retrieval devices avoiding unnecessary lifting movements when handling loads placed on pallets.

Diese Aufgabe ist erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß zur Aufnahme der Lasten für deren Bewegung zwischen Ein- und/ oder Auslagerstation und Regalfächern Paletten vorgesehen sind, daß zwei Regalbediengeräte vorgesehen sind, deren Rahmen im quer zur Fahrtrichtung angeordneten Abstand derart verfahrbar sind, daß der Abstand die in Fahrtrichtung gegebene Palettenbreite übersteigt, und daß die Hubtraversen mit den Einheiten als L-förmig von den vertikalen Schenkeln in die Fahrgasse in aufeinander zu gerichteter Weise ragend ausgebildet sind.This object is achieved in that pallets are provided for receiving the loads for their movement between the storage and / or retrieval station and shelf compartments, that two storage and retrieval devices are provided, the frames of which can be moved at a distance arranged transversely to the direction of travel such that the distance in the direction of travel exceeds the width of the pallet, and that the lifting traverses with the units are L-shaped and protrude from the vertical legs into the driving lane in a direction towards one another.

Auf diese Weise ergibt sich eine erhebliche Steigerung der Be- und Entladekapazität, indem in der Regalgasse die Fahrzeuge direkt umeinander herum gefahren werden können, so daß ohne zeitraubende zusätzliche Hubbewegungen zum Beispiel gleichzeitig ein Fahrzeug ausgelagert und ein Fahrzeug eingelagert werden kann. Dies ist insbesondere für den denkbaren Fall wichtig, daß eins der Regalbediengeräte durch einen Defekt ausfällt, so daß dann wenigstens durch das andere Regalbediengerät der Betrieb des Autosilos weitergeführt werden kann.In this way, there is a considerable increase in loading and unloading capacity, in that the vehicles can be driven directly around one another in the rack aisle, so that, for example, a vehicle can be outsourced and a vehicle can be stored at the same time without time-consuming additional lifting movements. This is particularly important for the conceivable case that one of the storage and retrieval machines fails due to a defect, so that the operation of the autosilo can then be continued at least by the other storage and retrieval unit.

Was die Mittel betrifft, die dafür sorgen, die das Kraftfahrzeug enthaltende Palette auf der Hubtraverse gedreht wird, so können diese zweckmäßig dadurch gegeben sein, daß die Einheit eine weitgehend den Palettenquerschnitt entsprechende Brücke ist, und daß die Brücke die Mittel zum Wechsel der Paletten zwischen sich und einem Regalfach bzw. einer fachartigen Position der Ein- und/oder Auslagerstation aufweist. Bei dieser Bauform ist also auf der Hubtraverse eine Brücke, also quasi ein Stellplatz für eine Palette drehbar gelagert, die gleichzeitig auch die Mittel zum Palettenwechsel zwischen den Regalen bzw. den beiden Stationen zum Hereinfahren bzw. Herausfahren des Kraftfahrzeuges gegenüber dem Autosilo enthält.As far as the means which ensure that the pallet containing the motor vehicle is rotated on the lifting crossmember, these can expediently be given in that the unit is a bridge which largely corresponds to the pallet cross section, and in that the bridge is the means for changing the pallets between and a shelf compartment or a compartment-like position of the storage and / or retrieval station. In this design, a bridge, that is to say a parking space for a pallet, is rotatably mounted on the lifting crossmember, which at the same time also contains the means for changing the pallet between the shelves or the two stations for moving the motor vehicle in and out relative to the car silo.

Die genannten Mittel können jedoch auch dadurch gegeben sein, daß die Einheit eine heb- und senkbare Plattform zum Untergreifen und Anheben bzw. Wiederabsenken der Paletten ist, und daß die Hubtraverse die Mittel zum Wechsel der Paletten zwischen sich und einem Regal fach bzw. einer fachartigen Position der Ein- und/oder Auslagerstation unmittelbar aufweist. Hier ist also vorgesehen, daß die Hubtraverse durch die entsprechenden Mittel das Wechselspiel zwischen sich und den Regalen bzw. sich und Ein- und/oder Auslagerstation besorgt. Ist dann eine Palette auf dem durch die Hubtraverse gebildeten Platz angekommen, so kann diese Palette durch die heb- und senkbare Einheit von unten ergriffen, von den Mitteln zum Wechsel der Paletten abgehoben und dann gedreht werden, woraufhin dann ein erneutes Absetzen auf die Mittel zum Wechsel der Paletten erfolgt.However, the means mentioned can also be given in that the unit is a liftable and lowerable platform for reaching under and lifting or lowering the pallets, and in that the lifting crossmember has the means for changing the pallets between themselves and a shelf compartment or a compartment-like Position of the storage and / or retrieval station immediately. It is therefore provided here that the lifting traverse ensures the interplay between itself and the shelves or between itself and the storage and / or retrieval station by the appropriate means. If a pallet has then arrived at the space formed by the lifting traverse, this pallet can be gripped from below by the unit which can be raised and lowered, lifted from the means for changing the pallets and then rotated , whereupon the pallets are replaced again.

Die Figuren 1 bis 3 zeigen in vereinfachter Darstellung ein Gebäude 1 eines Autosilos. In diesem Gebäude, das länglichen Charakter hat, sind entsprechend seiner Längserstreckung an beiden Längsseitenwänden Regale 2 angeordnet, die übereinander Fächer bilden, in die über entsprechende, bekannte Auflagemittel Paletten 3 einsetzbar sind.Figures 1 to 3 show a building 1 of a car silo in a simplified representation. In this building, which has an elongated character, shelves 2 are arranged on both longitudinal side walls in accordance with its longitudinal extent, which form compartments one above the other, into which pallets 3 can be inserted via corresponding, known support means.

Die beiden Reihen von Regalen 2 bilden zwischen sich einen Gang 4, der etwas breiter ist als die dazu parallelen Regale 2. In dem Gang 4 ist mittig ein Regalbediengerät parallel zu den Vorderfronten der Regale 2 bodenverfahrbar.The two rows of shelves 2 form a corridor 4 between them, which is somewhat wider than the shelves 2 parallel to it. In the aisle 4, a shelf operating device can be moved in the middle parallel to the front fronts of the shelves 2.

Das Regalbediengerät besteht im wesentlichen aus vertikalen Schenkeln 5, 6, deren Abstand größer als die Diagonale der Paletten 3 ist. Die Schenkel 5, 6 sind unten durch ein Fahrgestell 7 miteinander verbunden, das über eine Schiene 8 bodenverfahrbar ist.The storage and retrieval unit essentially consists of vertical legs 5, 6, the spacing of which is greater than the diagonal of the pallets 3. The legs 5, 6 are connected to one another at the bottom by a chassis 7 which can be moved on the ground via a rail 8.

Am oberen Ende sind die Schenkel 5, 6 durch einen Balken 9 miteinander verbunden, der deckenseitig über eine Schiene 10 parallel zur Schiene 8 geführt ist.At the upper end, the legs 5, 6 are connected to one another by a bar 9, which is guided on the ceiling side via a rail 10 parallel to the rail 8.

Entlang der Schenkel 5, 6 ist eine in Vertikalrichtung gesehen im wesentlichen U-förmig ausgebildete Hubtraverse 11 über ihre vertikalen Arme 12, 13 höhenverfahrbar. Die Hubtraverse trägt über einen Drehkranz 14 eine Brücke 15 derart, daß die Brücke 15 um eine Achse 16 drehbar auf der Hubtraverse 11 gelagert ist. Die Brücke trägt außerdem teleskopartig ausfahrbare Gabeln 17, 18, über die die Paletten 3 in an sich bekannter Weise aus den Regalen 2 geholt bzw. wieder in diese übergeben werden können.Along the legs 5, 6, seen in the vertical direction, an essentially U-shaped lifting traverse 11 can be moved in height via its vertical arms 12, 13. The lifting traverse carries a bridge 15 via a turntable 14 in such a way that the bridge 15 is rotatably mounted on the lifting traverse 11 about an axis 16. The bridge also carries telescopically extendable forks 17, 18, via which the pallets 3 can be taken from the shelves 2 in a manner known per se or transferred back into them.

Das in den Figuren 1 bis 3 dargestellte Autosilo hat außerdem, wie insbesondere aus den Figuren 1 und 2 ersichtlich, von der linken Frontseite her gesehen zwei Stationen 20, 21, die dem Hereinfahren bzw. Herausfahren der zu parkenden Fahrzeuge dienen. Diese Stationen sind als Boxen in Form geschlossener Räume ausgebildet und stellen jeweils eine Palette 22 zum Hereinfahren eines zu parkenden Autos zur Verfügung bzw. nehmen eine nicht näher dargestellte entsprechende Palette mit einem herauszufahrenden Auto auf.The autosilo shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 also has, as can be seen in particular from FIGS. 1 and 2, two stations 20, 21, seen from the left front side, which serve to drive the vehicles to be parked in and out. These stations are designed as boxes in the form of closed rooms and each provide a pallet 22 for driving in a car to be parked or pick up a corresponding pallet (not shown in more detail) with a car to be pulled out.

Das Regalbediengerät holt sich eine solche Palette 22 mit einem hereinzufahrenden Kraftfahrzeug und fährt dann auf eine Position unterhalb der in Figur 1 dargestellten Position, aber oberhalb des Vorratsstapels 23, wo Platz zum Wenden des Fahrzeuges ist. Im dargestellten Beispiel besteht diese Wendemöglichkeit auf der Höhe der Anordnung der Palette 22 nicht wegen der Wände der Ein- und Ausfahrboxen.The storage and retrieval unit fetches such a pallet 22 with a motor vehicle to be driven in and then moves to a position below the position shown in FIG. 1, but above the storage stack 23, where there is space for turning the vehicle. In the example shown, this turning possibility at the level of the arrangement of the pallet 22 does not exist because of the walls of the entry and exit boxes.

Die Wendung des Fahrzeuges bzw. der das Fahrzeug enthaltenden Palette mit Hilfe der Brücke 15 wird dann entweder vor der Einlagerung des Fahrzeuges in das Silo oder am Ende der Auslagerung des Fahrzeuges aus dem Silo an der genannten Stelle durchgeführt.The turning of the vehicle or the pallet containing the vehicle with the help of the bridge 15 is then carried out either before the vehicle is stored in the silo or at the end of the removal of the vehicle from the silo at the location mentioned.

Wesentlich ist hierbei, daß die Wendemöglichkeit für das Fahrzeug so, daß es sowohl vorwärts in das Autosilo hereingefahren als auch vorwärts wieder aus dem Autosilo herausgefahren werden kann, in die Konstruktion des Regalbediengerätes integriert ist, so daß dazu kein zusätzlicher Platz erforderlich ist. Auch sind die konstruktiven Mittel zur Durchführung dieser Wendung äußerst einfach. Der Platz, an dem die Wendung des Fahrzeuges stattfindet, ist durch die Ein- und Ausfahrboxen des Autosilos ohnehin vorhanden, so daß auch dadurch ein zusätzlicher Aufwand nicht gegeben ist.It is essential here that the turning possibility for the vehicle is integrated into the construction of the storage and retrieval unit so that it can both be moved forward into the autosilo and be moved forward again out of the autosilo, so that no additional space is required for this. The constructive means for carrying out this turn are extremely simple. The place where the vehicle turns is already available due to the entry and exit boxes of the car silo, so that this does not result in any additional effort.

Um die Beschreibung der Darstellung gemäß Figur 1 noch zu vervollständigen, ist anzumerken, daß die Paletten 22, die für ein einzufahrendes oder auszufahrendes Fahrzeug dienen, nach dem Absetzen durch das Regalbediengerät mittels Klinken 24 oder dergleichen gehalten werden, die zurückgezogen werden können, wenn die jeweilige Palette vom Regalbediengerät übernommen wird bzw. die eingefahren werden können, wenn die jeweilige Palette vom Regalbediengerät abgegeben wird.In order to complete the description of the illustration according to FIG. 1, it should be noted that the pallets 22, which are used for a vehicle to be retracted or retracted, are held after being set down by the storage and retrieval unit by means of latches 24 or the like, which can be withdrawn when the the respective pallet is taken over by the storage and retrieval machine or which can be retracted when the respective pallet is delivered by the storage and retrieval machine.

Die Figuren 4 und 5 zeigen noch einmal ausschnittweise Vergrößerungen aus den Figuren 1 und 2 unter Verwendung der dortigen Bezugszeichen. Hier kann man sich nun als Alternative zum Beispiel leicht vorstellen, daß die Brücke 15 auch dadurch ersetzt werden kann, daß die Gabeln 17, 18 verfahrbar an der Hubtraverse 11 angeordnet sind, also von der Hubtraverse selbst die Paletten 3 unmittelbar bewegt werden, andererseits aber ein anstelle des Drehkranzes 14 vorgesehener Hub- und Drehmechanismus die dann auf die Hubtraverse 11 geholte Palette 3 von den Gabeln 17, 18 anhebt und um 180° dreht.FIGS. 4 and 5 again show excerpts of enlargements from FIGS. 1 and 2 using the reference numerals there. Here you can easily imagine as an alternative, for example, that the bridge 15 can also be replaced by the fact that the forks 17, 18 are movably arranged on the lifting traverse 11, that is to say the pallets 3 are moved directly by the lifting traverse itself, but on the other hand a lifting and rotating mechanism provided instead of the slewing ring 14 which then lifts the pallet 3, which has been brought onto the lifting traverse 11, from the forks 17, 18 and rotates through 180 °.

Die Figuren 6 und 7 zeigen in Schnittansicht und dazugehörender Draufsicht eine Ausbildung des Gegenstandes gemäß der Figuren 1 bis 5 in vereinfachter Darstellung, bei der sich das Autosilo in einem Gebäude 30 befindet, das wieder entsprechend seiner Längserstreckung an beiden Längsseitenwänden Regale 31 aufweist, die übereinander Fächer bilden, in die über entsprechende, bekannte Auflagemittel Paletten 32 einsetzbar sind.FIGS. 6 and 7 show in a sectional view and the associated top view an embodiment of the object according to FIGS. 1 to 5 in a simplified representation, in which the autosilo is located in a building 30 which, according to its longitudinal extent, has shelves 31 on both longitudinal side walls, one above the other Form compartments into which pallets 32 can be inserted using appropriate, known support means.

Die Regalreihen 31 bilden zwischen sich einen Gang 33. In diesem Gang sind nun jeweils entlang eines der Regale 31 zwei Regalbediengeräte parallel zu den Vorderfronten der Regale 31 bodenverfahrbar.The rows of shelves 31 form an aisle 33 between them. In this aisle there are now each one of the shelves 31 two storage and retrieval machines can be moved parallel to the front of the shelves 31.

Auch hier bestehen die Regalbediengeräte im wesentlichen aus vertikalen Schenkeln 34, 35, deren Abstand größer als die Diagonale der Paletten 32 ist. Die Schenkel 34, 35 sind unten durch ein Fahrgestell 50 miteinander verbunden, das über Schienen 36, 37 bodenverfahrbar ist. Am oberen Ende sind die Schenkel 34, 35 durch einen nicht dargestellten Balken miteinander verbunden, der deckenseitig über Schienen 38, 39 geführt ist.Here, too, the storage and retrieval machines essentially consist of vertical legs 34, 35, the spacing of which is greater than the diagonal of the pallets 32. The legs 34, 35 are connected to one another at the bottom by a chassis 50 which can be moved on the floor via rails 36, 37. At the upper end, the legs 34, 35 are connected to one another by a bar, not shown, which is guided on the ceiling side via rails 38, 39.

Entlang der Schenkel 34, 35 ist jeweils eine in Vertikalrichtung gesehen im wesentlichen U-förmig ausgebildete Hubtraverse 40, 41 über ihre vertikalen Arme 42, 43 bzw. 44, 45 höhenverfahrbar. Die Hubtraverse ist L-förmig so ausgebildet, daß ihr horizontaler Teil in den Gangabschnitt zwischen den beiden Regalbediengeräten ragt, wobei dieser Gangabschnitt durch entsprechende Beabstandung der beiden Regalbediengeräte so groß ausgebildet ist, daß die Regalbediengeräte aneinander vorbeifahren können, wenn nur die Hubtraversen eine unterschiedliche Höhenlage einnehmen.Along the legs 34, 35, viewed in the vertical direction, an essentially U-shaped lifting cross-piece 40, 41 can be moved in height via its vertical arms 42, 43 and 44, 45. The lifting traverse is L-shaped so that its horizontal part projects into the aisle section between the two storage and retrieval machines, this aisle section being designed so large by appropriate spacing of the two storage and retrieval machines that the storage and retrieval devices can move past one another if only the lifting traverses are at different heights take in.

Auf den L-förmig vorragenden Schenkeln 46, 47 sind über Drehkränze 48, 49 Brücken 51, 52 je um eine Achse 53, 54 drehbar. Die Brücken tragen über teleskopartig ausfahrbare Gabeln 55, 56 bzw. 57, 58 je eine Palette 32, über die ein Fahrzeug in die Regalfächer hinein- bzw. aus diesen herausgefahren werden kann. Anstelle der Gabeln 55, 56 bzw. 57, 58 können auch umlaufende Ketten vorgesehen sein, die mit Klinken die einzelnen Paletten erfassen. Ebenso sind zumindest teilweise ausfahrbare Reibradantriebe denkbar, mit denen die Paletten hin- und herbewegt werden.On the L-shaped protruding legs 46, 47 bridges 51, 52 are each rotatable about an axis 53, 54 via rotating rings 48, 49. The bridges each carry a pallet 32 via telescopically extendable forks 55, 56 and 57, 58, via which a vehicle can be moved into and out of the shelf compartments. Instead of the forks 55, 56 and 57, 58, revolving chains can also be provided, which grip the individual pallets with pawls. Likewise, at least partially extendable friction wheel drives are conceivable, with which the pallets are moved back and forth.

Wie ersichtlich, ist bei der Bauform nach den Figuren 6 und 7 eine quer zur Längsrichtung des Regalganges 33 erfolgende Ein- und Auslagerung der Fahrzeuge in die Regalfächer vorgesehen, also eine sogenannte Querlagerung. Die Drehung des Fahrzeuges zwischen der Längsrichtung des Regalganges 33 und den quer liegenden Fächern erfolgt, wie aus Figur 7 ersichtlich, innerhalb des Regalganges, was durch den Abstand der vertikalen Schenkel 34, 35 der Regalbediengeräte möglich ist.As can be seen, the construction according to FIGS. 6 and 7 provides for the storage and retrieval of the vehicles transversely to the longitudinal direction of the rack aisle 33 in the rack compartments, that is to say a so-called transverse storage. The rotation of the vehicle between the longitudinal direction of the rack aisle 33 and the transverse compartments takes place, as can be seen from FIG. 7, within the rack aisle, which is possible due to the distance between the vertical legs 34, 35 of the rack operating devices.

Die Ein- und Auslagerung der Fahrzeuge in das Autosilo gemäß Figur 6 und 7 kann an einem oder beiden der Längsenden des Regalganges 33 erfolgen. Es besteht jedoch auch die Möglichkeit, ein oder zwei bodengleiche Regalfächer, wie beispielsweise das Regalfach 60 zum Ein- und Auslagern zu benutzen.The storage and retrieval of the vehicles in the autosilo according to FIGS. 6 and 7 can take place at one or both of the longitudinal ends of the rack aisle 33. However, there is also the possibility of using one or two floor-level shelf compartments, such as shelf compartment 60, for storage and retrieval.

Der Vorteil der Bauform gemäß Figur 6 und 7 besteht darin, daß eine höhere Ein- und Auslagerkapazität erreicht wird. Außerdem ist immer noch ein Regalbediengerät für die notwendigen Fahrbewegungen vorhanden, wenn das andere eventuell defekt ist.The advantage of the design according to FIGS. 6 and 7 is that a higher storage and retrieval capacity is achieved. In addition, there is still a storage and retrieval unit for the necessary travel movements if the other one is possibly defective.

Wie anhand der Ausführungsform gemäß Figur 6 und 7 bereits geschildert, können die Fahrzeuge sowohl in Längsrichtung des Regalganges 33 als auch quer dazu über entsprechende Stationen ein- und ausgefahren werden. Diese Möglichkeit besteht grundsätzlich auch für die Bauform gemäß Figur 1 bis 5, wenn man dort nur den Regalgang 4 genügend breit ausbildet, so daß Fahrzeuge seitlich über eine Ein- und Ausfahrstation eingefahren und dann innerhalb des Ganges gedreht werden können.As already described with reference to the embodiment according to FIGS. 6 and 7, the vehicles can be moved in and out both in the longitudinal direction of the rack aisle 33 and transversely thereto via corresponding stations. In principle, this is also possible for the design 1 to 5, if only the rack aisle 4 is made sufficiently wide there so that vehicles can be retracted laterally via an entry and exit station and then rotated within the aisle.

Die Figuren 1 bis 5 zeigen das Parken der Fahrzeuge parallel zum Regalgang, also ein sogenanntes Längsparken. Auch hier ist aber mit der vorgenannten Voraussetzung ein Querparken möglich. Ebenso ist bei der Ausführungsform gemäß den Figuren 6 und 7 ein Längsparken möglich, wenn nur die Regale entsprechend ausgebildet sind und der Abstand der vertikalen Schenkel 34, 35 entsprechend eingerichtet wird.Figures 1 to 5 show the parking of the vehicles parallel to the rack aisle, so-called longitudinal parking. Here, too, cross-parking is possible with the aforementioned requirement. Longitudinal parking is also possible in the embodiment according to FIGS. 6 and 7 if only the shelves are designed accordingly and the distance between the vertical legs 34, 35 is set up accordingly.
