There is also the possibility that sliding elements or the like fix or release the transport container. Also other common means, e.g. Pneumatic punches or the like can be used. In further embodiments, not shown, e.g. Also aids for opening and / or closing the transport container 11 made of cardboard, cardboard or the like, so be provided for folding / folding back the lid 44 within the circulation cassette 15. These aids are preferably associated with the circulation cassette 15, but may also be attached to the arrangement 10 itself.
  • the inserts 35 are preferably made of a metal, and more preferably of aluminum.
  • the inserts can also be made of a dimensionally stable plastic.
  • the walls 22 to 26 forming the receiving space 27 or the support frame 28 of the circulation cassette 15, in particular the side walls 24, 25, are also preferably at least partially made of metal and more preferably of aluminum.

  • the assembly 10 is irrespective of whether it has a tray filler or a tray emptier 12 as a level change device Carton tray format set.
  • a set of circulating cassettes 15 is set on the inside to or for a specific carton tray format, whereby the circulating cassettes 15 are adapted to the arrangement 10 once on the outside.
  • This set of circulating cassettes 15 now continuously circulates during operation and job for the one carton tray format without leaving the assembly 10.
  • the change of the carton trays takes place in the area of a transfer station by an operating position or automatically with suitable handling devices by inserting the carton trays into the circulating cassettes 15 located on the arrangement 10 or being removed therefrom.
  • the first set of circulating cassettes 15 may be exchanged for a second set of circulating cassettes 15 which has already been adapted outside the assembly 10 to the new carton tray format - either by replacement of the inserts 35 or by adjustment of the inserts 35 relative to the support frame 28.
  • the operation can be immediately commenced, since the circulation cassettes 15 are unchanged externally and with respect to the positioning within the arrangement 10.
  • the set of circulation cassettes 15 for the first carton tray format can also remain in the arrangement 10, so that the inside adjustment of the circulation cassettes 15 to the new carton tray format within the assembly 10, again without external adaptation of the circulation cassettes 15 to the assembly 10, takes place.
  • the lifting element 22 takes over the circulation cassette 15 with the filled transport container 11 by turning the column 45 by 180 ° the circulation cassette 15 is rotated with the filled transport container 11 in the position in which the filled transport container 11 removed and an empty transport container 11 is inserted into the circulation cassette 15 without the circulation cassette 15 is removed from the assembly 10. Then the cycle starts again.
  • a full carton tray is placed in an ergonomic position in a circulation cassette 15.
  • the circulation cassette 15 is placed with the filled transport container 11 on the transport device 13 for feeding the transport container 11 and transported in the direction of the Schragenentleerers.
  • the circulation cassette 15 is set down with the empty cardboard tray on the transport direction 14 for transporting away the transport containers 11 and transported in the direction of the lifting device 17.
  • the lifting device 17 takes over the circulation cassette 15 and lifts it into an ergonomically optimal position at which the empty cardboard tray is removed from the circulation cassette 15 and a full cardboard tray is inserted into the circulation cassette 15.
  • the circulation cassette 15 is further transported upward until the circulation cassette 15 is in front of the transporting means 13 for feeding the transport containers 11.
  • the transfer means 18 the circulation cassette 15 is pulled onto the transport means 13 for feeding the transport containers 11, for example by the telescopic conveyor 19 moves its transport member 20 under the circulation cassette 15 and hooks the circulation cassette 15 by drivers or the like or otherwise fixed.
  • the circulation cassette 15 is transferred to the transport device 13 for feeding the transport container 11. Then the cycle starts again.
