Definitions

  • the invention relates to an automatic storage system and a method for the automatic storage and / or retrieval of storage goods carriers.
  • a conveyor moves vertically in a storage lane delimited by storage racks and, in some configurations, also horizontally back and forth.
  • the storage racks have storage spaces for storage goods carriers.
  • the conveyor is used to store or remove the La gergut whatsoever in or from the storage locations.
  • Such storage systems are often part of an automatic order-picking device in which the storage goods carriers with the goods to be picked are automatically brought to the storage lift for storage, transferred to the conveyor of the storage lift at a transfer position and moved by the conveyor to a storage location in the storage area or for removal transported by the conveyor to the transfer position and automatically moved away from there.
  • the storage and retrieval in a storage system should work as quickly as possible in such storage systems in order to ensure a high throughput.
  • attention must be paid to a compact design so that as many storage systems as possible and transport systems connecting these storage systems can be installed in a given space.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object of improving an automatic storage system and a method for automatic storage and / or retrieval of storage goods carriers in such a way that the storage and retrieval process is accelerated with little space requirement.
  • an automatic storage system with a storage area, which has a storage aisle and storage spaces adjoining the storage aisle for one storage goods carrier, with a conveyor device movable in the storage aisle, and with two located next to each other on one side of the storage area , transfer positions aligned obliquely to one another, the conveying device being designed to be movable for storing a storage goods carrier in the storage area and / or for relocating a storage goods carrier to the transfer positions.
  • this object is achieved by a method for the automatic storage and / or retrieval of storage goods carriers, in which the storage goods carriers from a conveyor device in particular individually between a storage area in which the storage goods carriers are stored, and one of two adjacent to one another on one side of the storage area, are moved obliquely to one another in the aligned transfer positions, the storage goods carriers being transferred to the transfer positions by the conveyor for further processing outside the storage area or being received from outside the storage area.
  • the transfer positions which are aligned obliquely to one another or offset from one another, only a small amount of space is required.
  • the side-by-side, inclined arrangement enables the conveyor to be changed quickly between the two transfer positions, which accelerates storage and retrieval, as a storage goods carrier can quickly be released at one transfer position and picked up at the other transfer position.
  • the transfer position denotes both a spatial position of a storage goods carrier or a position that can be assumed by a storage goods carrier and the spatial position of the conveying device corresponding to this spatial position, since the difference between these spatial positions does not matter.
  • the transfer position of the conveying device denotes the spatial position that the conveying device assumes when the storage goods container transported or to be transported by it is in the transfer position.
  • the storage goods carrier can in particular be a standardized small load carrier, such as a euro container.
  • the standardized design of the storage goods carrier facilitates its handling across a wide variety of systems.
  • Storage goods of the same type or of different types can be accommodated in a storage goods carrier.
  • the storage goods carriers are preferably handled individually by the automatic storage system, so the device is preferably designed to receive and transport each of the storage goods carriers or to store or remove them.
  • the storage locations can be on storage shelves. In the storage racks, the storage spaces for the storage goods carriers can be arranged above and / or next to one another. The storage locations can all have the same or different sizes. In the case of two opposite storage racks, the storage aisle can be arranged between the two storage racks.
  • the conveyor device can be moved along the storage aisle in the horizontal and / or vertical direction.
  • the conveying device can be pivotable about an in particular vertically extending pivot axis.
  • the pivot axis can be horizontal be agile.
  • the conveying device can be designed to execute a pivoting movement in the storage aisle and / or between the transfer positions.
  • a pivotable För der adopted enables a structure of the storage system in which a transfer of storage goods carriers can take place not only in the extension of the storage aisle, but also at any point across the storage aisle.
  • the conveying device is preferably pivoted relative to the other transfer position, in particular about the pivot axis. By pivoting, it is possible for the conveying device to move to an obliquely aligned transfer position.
  • the conveying device can have a gripper that can be extended and / or retracted in particular with respect to the rest of the conveying device.
  • the gripper can be designed, for example, to support a load carrier.
  • the gripper is, for example, a simple platform on which a preferably individual load carrier rests.
  • form-locking elements of the load carrier and gripper can interlock in order to prevent the load carrier from shifting on the support.
  • a transfer position can be located at least in sections outside the storage area or outside the storage aisle. In such a case it makes sense if the gripper is at least partially extended in the transition position. With such a configuration, the rest of the conveying device can remain in the storage area and conveyance beyond the storage area is made possible by the extendibility of the gripper.
  • the conveying device can be held movably on a mast, the mast being designed to be movable along the storage aisle.
  • the transfer positions are arranged at least in sections in an extension of the storage aisle, that is to say on an end face of the storage aisle.
  • This has the advantage that the transfer position is at the position of a storage opening that is usual for storage systems, in particular for storage lifts.
  • no storage spaces have to be abandoned to provide the transfer position, since there are often no storage spaces available at the front end of the storage alley.
  • one advantage of this embodiment is that several storage systems can be set up directly adjacent to one another.
  • the transfer positions can also be located, at least in sections, in the extension of a lateral storage opening of the storage area that is parallel to the storage aisle.
  • the lateral storage opening can be formed in a side wall of the storage system and can extend, for example, through a storage rack towards the storage aisle.
  • the lateral storage opening runs, for example, parallel to the vertical center plane of the storage aisle.
  • a lateral storage opening can be advantageous in certain configurations for the flow of material, for example, if, at the same time as automatic storage or retrieval, manual access to the storage goods carriers in an extension of the storage aisle, on the front surface of the storage aisle, is to be possible.
  • the storage system can have a housing that surrounds the storage area and in which the bearing opening is formed on the end face or on the side.
  • the conveyor device extends through the storage opening when it is in a transfer position.
  • the transfer positions can, viewed from the storage area, lie completely beyond the storage opening. However, the transfer positions can also partially extend through the storage opening into the storage area.
  • the transfer positions can be rotated or offset relative to one another about an in particular vertically running axis of rotation. This configuration enables the För der adopted to perform a pivoting movement when moving from one transfer position to the other. Such a pivoting movement is structurally simple to implement and can be implemented structurally simply and precisely.
  • the conveyor device can move to the angular positions corresponding to the two transfer positions by means of a pure pivoting movement.
  • a deviation of the axis of rotation from the pivot axis in terms of coaxiality and / or parallelism of less than 5 ° to 10 ° is still to be seen as coaxial.
  • the angle between the two transfer positions is, for example, between 20 ° and 80 °, preferably between approximately 30 ° and approximately 60 °.
  • the two transfer positions can be spaced from one another at any point, so that a storage goods carrier can be located in both transfer positions at the same time.
  • the two transfer positions can also cover or overlap in sections, which enables a more compact design.
  • a Lagergutträ ger can only alternate in a transfer position. So that the conveyor does not have to perform any unnecessary vertical movements during the transition from one transfer position to the other, the transfer positions can be at the same height, that is, in the same horizontal plane.
  • the transfer positions can be aligned at an angle to the storage opening. In this way, a V-shaped arrangement of the transfer positions can result.
  • the alignment of a transfer position is determined by the alignment of at least one vertical center plane of the storage goods carrier.
  • the transfer positions are preferably arranged at an angle to a center plane of the bearing opening that runs perpendicular to the bearing opening and vertically, in particular symmetrically.
  • the central plane of the storage opening can correspond to a central plane of the warehouse aisle.
  • the pivot axis of the conveyor can be located in the central plane of the La gergasse. A positional deviation within the scope of the tolerance dimensions customary for storage systems is still considered to be on the central plane.
  • the two transfer positions are preferably arranged symmetrically to a vertical central plane running perpendicular to the bearing opening. This has the advantage that, starting from a central position, the conveyor device can reach both transfer positions in the same time span, so no transfer position is preferred.
  • the conveying device in particular the gripper, can be designed to be movable up and down from at least one and / or into at least one of the transfer positions. If the conveying device is in a transfer position, it can be moved upwards and / or downwards, that is to say vertically, out of this. This he enables the conveyor to receive a storage goods carrier located in the transfer position when moving from below the transfer position through the transfer position to above the transfer position. When the conveyor moves with the goods carrier on the conveyor, a movement of the conveyor device from above the transfer position through the transfer position to below the transfer position enables the goods carrier to be deposited at the transfer position.
  • the conveying device can be designed to be pivotable from the one transfer position directly into the other transfer position.
  • the conveying device can be designed to be pivotable from a position directly above the one transfer position directly into a position above the other transfer position, without a translational movement having to be carried out in between.
  • the conveying device can, preferably directly, in particular, from a position directly below the one transfer position without translational movement in between, be designed to be pivotable directly into a position below the other transfer position.
  • the space above and / or below the transition positions and / or between the two transition positions should not be obstructed so that the gripper does not have to be retracted during the pivoting movement and / or the conveyor does not have to be retracted.
  • a storage goods carrier receptacle at each transfer position, on which a preferred individual storage goods carrier can be stored.
  • a storage goods carrier receptacle can be designed, for example, in the shape of a table, so that a storage goods carrier can be handled manually at the receptacle.
  • individual storage goods can be removed from a storage goods carrier or placed in a storage goods carrier by a user, for example a picker and / or robot (SFS).
  • FSS picker and / or robot
  • the transfer positions and thus the receptacles can, however, each be designed as sections of two different transport tracks for load carriers.
  • the recordings can be designed as the end or the beginning of a transport path.
  • a storage goods carrier can be transported from or to a transfer position via a transport track.
  • only the same transfer position can be designed or used for the removal of a storage goods carrier and thus its removal and always the other transfer position exclusively for the storage and thus the delivery of an individual storage goods carrier.
  • the conveying device is designed to deliver each receptacle individually to a storage goods carrier, in particular to deposit it and / or to pick it up individually from each receptacle, in particular to lift it off.
  • the location and orientation of the recordings coincides with the location and orientation of the corresponding transfer positions. So the recordings can be at least partially or completely dig outside of the storage area.
  • the receptacles can be arranged in a V-shape.
  • the conveying device can be designed to move, starting from a transfer position, over and / or under the receptacle corresponding to this transfer position. Furthermore, the conveying device can be designed to rotate from one to the other receptacle, in particular above and / or below the same.

  • the receptacles can be arranged obliquely to one another and obliquely to a vertical central plane of the storage opening and / or the storage alley, in particular symmetrically to the central plane.
  • the receptacles can each have a hatch in the form of a horizontal opening that is open to the storage area.

  • the hatch is smaller than a base area of a storage goods carrier, so that a storage goods carrier can be placed on the receptacle despite the hatch and cannot fall through.
  • a distance between the two transport tracks can increase in the direction away from the transfer positions.
  • the area in which the distance between the two transport tracks increases in the direction away from the transfer positions can be located between the storage area and a section of the transport tracks in which the transport tracks run parallel to one another.
  • the transport tracks can be curved away from the transfer positions, at least in sections, for example in the area in which the distance between the transport tracks increases.
  • the conveyor device can take over a storage goods carrier at one of the transfer positions for storage and transfer another storage goods carrier to the other transfer position for retrieval. This enables quick changes between storage and retrieval.
  • the conveying device can dispense a storage goods carrier at a transfer position and immediately afterwards, in particular without returning to the storage area or the storage aisle, pick up another storage goods carrier at the other transfer position.
  • the storage goods carrier is pivoted by the conveyor device according to one embodiment.
  • the pivoting can already take place in the storage lane or only after leaving the storage lane, for example in the storage opening.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un système de stockage (1) automatique ainsi qu'un procédé de mise en stock et/ou de sortie de stock automatiques de supports pour marchandises à entreposer (4). L'invention vise à mettre au point un système laser (1) et un procédé permettant une mise en stock et une sortie de stock rapides en cas d'encombrement réduit. A cet effet, selon l'invention, la solution consiste, dans le cas d'un système de stockage (1) dotée d'une zone de stockage (2) présentant une voie de stockage (12) et des emplacements de stockage (6) jouxtant la voie de stockage et destinés aux supports pour marchandises à entreposer, en un dispositif de transport (16) conçu de manière à se déplacer dans la zone de stockage (2) pour assurer la mise en stock d'un support pour marchandises à entreposer (4) et/ou dans deux positions de transfert (14, 15) situées à proximité l'une de l'autre et orientées de manière oblique l'une par rapport à l'autre, pour assurer la sortie de stock d'un support de marchandises entreposées (4). De préférence, le support de marchandises entreposées peut être déplacé au-dessus ou au-dessous d'une position de transfert (14, 15) par un simple basculement au-dessous ou au-dessus de l'autre position de transfert (15, 14).
