  • Patent number: 7131811
    Abstract: A system for the deep racking storage of pallets includes at least one pair of rails which are intended for supporting pallets. The rails are of sufficient length to support several pallets. A carriage is positionable on a pair of rails and drivable therealong for moving the pallets. Each rail has an upper, longitudinal support surface and a lower, longitudinal rolling surface. The support surface is intended for supporting the pallets, while the rolling surface is intended for the carriage. On each rail, the support surface and the rolling surface are interconnected to one another by the intermediary of side walls. The side walls together form a space which tapers from above and downwards for aligning a carriage when this is lowered towards the rolling surface.

  • Patent number: 7131810
    Abstract: A carriage for transport of a load, for example a load pallet, along a rail pair in a so-called deep racking store, has a carrier arrangement which, in a deactivated transport position, passes under a load resting on the rail pair. The carrier arrangement is disposed, in an activated lifting position, to carry the load from beneath so that it is free of the rail pair. The carriage has a supporting frame or chassis provided with at least four wheels. The carrier arrangement is rigidly connected to the frame or chassis and each wheel is journalled in an associated arm. The arm is pivotally journalled in the frame so as to be able to raise and lower the wheel in relation to the frame. The arm is operated by an operating device.
