<p>A system for transferring products (P) from an area for storing a stock of goods to an area where the products (P) have to be delivered, where the system includes a transport unit (8) for conveying the products (P), where the transport unit (8) moves along a track system and comprises a propulsion unit, a product holder (3) for locating at least one product (P1), an energy storage unit(s) (7) for storing energy for driving the propulsion unit and a control unit for controlling the propulsion unit, a track system along which the transport unit is moved, where the transport unit conveys the products between the various units, a charging unit for charging the transport unit's energy storage unit(s) (7), a storage unit (50,70) for storing products (P), together with a product collector (60), which receives a product (P1) from the storage unit (50,70) and also makes the product (P1) accessible, thus enabling it to be transferred to the transport unit's product holder (3), a product rotator (42) where the product is oriented in such a manner that the product's identifying features or label are displayed in a desired position during transport in the track system and/or on delivery, or the product may be rejected if it is of inferior quality or of the wrong type, a transfer unit (80) with an entry portion (83) and delivery portion (81), where the product (P1) is delivered and fed to a delivery area for collection, for example, by a customer, where there is a difference in level between the transfer unit's entry portion (83) and delivery portion (81), and a central control unit for transmitting and receiving signals to/from the different units in the system.</p> |
