PIVOTAL HANDLING DEVICE FOR SHELVES OF A STORAGE AND/OR ORDER-PICKING SYSTEM

摘要

The invention relates to a handling device (1) for connecting to a transport path (9) for shelves (3) of a storage and/or order-picking system (5). The handling device is equipped with a shelf mounting (27) for at least one shelf (3). The aim of the invention is to provide an ergonomic access to a shelf (3) in the shelf mounting (27) from a workstation (39) and simultaneously maintain a sufficient safe distance between the workstation (39) and the transport path (9). According to the invention, this is achieved in that the shelf mounting (27) is arranged in a pivotal manner from a horizontal loading position (29), in which the shelf mounting (27) can be coupled to the transport path (9) in order to transfer (11) shelves (3), into an access position (25), which is horizontally spaced from the loading position (29), and the shelf mounting (27) is inclined in the access position (25) so as to point away from the loading position (29). The distance between the workstation (39) and the transport path (9) is spanned by the pivot movement. The inclination in the access position (29) even allows an ergonomic access to the rear sections (31) of the shelf (3) for operating personnel (7).
