Abstract: An automatic delivery system includes a conveyor including powered first rollers arranged in parallel with each other defining a spacing between sequential ones of the first rollers. Fixed second rollers or fixed members are each connected to and coaxially aligned with individual ones of the first rollers and sequentially separated by the first roller spacing. The second rollers are divisible into at least two groups, each defining a loading station. Each of the loading stations has a station positioning device including at least one extension rod extending through and horizontally displaceable within the spacing between sequential ones of the first and second rollers. The station positioning device displaces a container received on the powered first rollers into and out of the loading station. A computer controlling the system and the station positioning device includes data for components inserted into the container at the loading station of each group.

Abstract: A moveable storage system having one or more storage units, a plurality of flexible track elements conformable with an irregular supporting surface, and an individual base structure which supports each storage unit for movement along the track elements through roller members associated with particular track elements. One or more of the roller members is a load leveling articulated wheel assembly having a pair of spaced roller wheels operative to pivot about an articulation shaft to conform with flexible track profiles to accommodate supporting surface irregularities under and between various track elements spaced along the length of the storage unit.
