Indretning og fremgangsmåde til at isolere stykgods som skal opbevares i et automatiseret lager

摘要

The device (1) has conveyor (3) for conveying unit loads (2,2A) from reservoir (4) on top edge (13) of step conveyor across a collecting unit (5). A control unit (6) is coupled with sensor (7) which detects whether unit loads (2A) is promoted above the top edge of conveyor. The control unit is provided to actuate the conveyor, such that first stage (9) is actuated repeatedly according to filling of the reservoir, and the second stage is controlled until the sensor does not detect further conveying of unit loads (2A). The conveyor has inclined support surface (8) provided parallel to movable first stage. The distance between supporting surface and feed edge to minimum step height corresponds to shift up the unit loads (2A). An independent claim is included for method for separating unit loads to be held in automated storage unit using step conveyor with sloping support surface.
