  • Publication number: 20230183006
    Abstract: A system for processing picking orders each having a plurality of articles, includes a replenishing storage, at least one reloading station connected to the replenishing storage for reloading of articles for hanging transportation, and a buffer storage connected to the reloading station with parallel circulating storages for hanging transports. A controller allocates orders to be picked to each circulating storage and generates a list and quantity of all articles per circulating storage, and supplies the articles present therein to the respective circulating storage. The controller checks each circulating storage to determine whether a) articles for the fulfilment of an original order are present, and/or b) articles for the fulfilment of another order to be treated preferentially are present, and/or c) articles for the fulfilment of another order to be treated preferentially are present in two or more circulating storages. Thereupon the articles are discharged from the respective circulating storage.

  • Patent number: 10325527
    Abstract: A label to identify an object has an inscribable layer composite for receiving a first, visible inscription to identify an object, an adhesive film for adhering the label to an object, and an active substance, which, when contacting the object surface, penetrates into and/or acts on the object surface. The active substance is disposed on the label rear side in a structured active surface layer, on, in, or underneath the adhesive film. The structured active substance layer includes a partial surface region or multiple partial surface regions of the label base surface. When the label is adhesively affixed to the object surface, the active substance on the label rear side selectively contacts the object surface in the structured active substance surface region. Within the base label surface, the structured active substance layer has the shape and/or contour of a further, initially-invisible inscription, identification or item of information.

  • Patent number: 10258978
    Abstract: A porous ceramic substrate for use as a particle filter, with a porosity of at least 50%, which includes a non-uniform coating layer of an oxide component in contact with a surface of the ceramic substrate, which oxide component is distributed on the surface and in dead-end pores of the ceramic substrate and creates the non-uniform coating layer on the substrate support, wherein the coating layer has a substantially smooth surface. Such substrate is typically a particle filter or part of a particle filter, e.g. a DPF.
