Abstract: A method and a device for the automated emptying of packets and packages or similar piece goods from a collection or transport container holding the piece goods. The container is pivotable to this end by way of a tipping device at least temporarily holding the container, according to a defined motion schema, into an emptying position. In order to provide an effective, automated solution for gently emptying packets and packages or similar piece goods from collection or transport containers, allowing for simultaneous minimizing of the damage occurring at low cycle times, the collection or transport container is tipped out, wherein the motion schema and thus the tipping procedure of the collection or transport container can be accelerated or decelerated as a function of the current emptying procedure and/or considering the speed and/or amount of the tipped-out piece goods.

Abstract: An apparatus for loading and unloading loading units with stackable articles, in particular interchangeable load carriers, such as swap bodies or similar transport devices which can be separated from carrier vehicles. In order to make it possible for the stackable articles which are to be transported in loading units to be loaded and unloaded quickly in an ergonomically favorable manner, there is provided a pallet which is fixedly assigned to the loading unit and has a fixed rear supporting wall directed away from the loading side. The rear wall stands upright transversely to the longitudinal extent of the loading unit and is intended for the stack formed on the pallet. It is possible for the latter to be moved longitudinally, at least in part, into the loading unit and out of the loading unit and to be loaded and unloaded outside the loading unit.
