Publication number: 20170129702Abstract: A remotely-operated vehicle assembly for picking up storage bins from a storage system and a method for changing vehicle direction includes a body displaying a cavity, a lifting device connected to the body for lifting the bin into the cavity, a displacement arrangement including a displacement motor which provides power to displace one or both of first and second sets of vehicle rolling means between a displaced state where the relevant rolling means is displaced away from the underlying system during use, and a non-displaced state where the relevant rolling means is in contact with the underlying system during use, and driving means coupled to the displacement arrangement. The driving means further includes first and second sets of rolling means connected to the body allowing movement of the vehicle along first and second directions, respectively, within the system. The first and second directions are perpendicular.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 16, 2015Publication date: May 11, 2017Applicant: Jakob Hatteland Logistics ASInventor: Ingvar Hognaland
