Abstract: A goods storage system includes, among other things, a goods repository with several lifting apparatuses without a drive arranged in storage shafts, wherein each lifting apparatus or a corresponding group of lifting apparatuses include a drive coupling which is designed to apply a drive torque to the lifting apparatus. The drive couplings are accessible from a driving level. The system further includes at least one driverless vehicle with a lifting drive and a drive mating coupling corresponding to the drive couplings of the lifting apparatuses. The drive mating coupling is designed for automatic coupling to one of the drive couplings of the lifting apparatuses when the driverless vehicle is located in couplable proximity to the corresponding drive coupling of the lifting apparatus.

Abstract: A gripper for palletizing and/or depalletizing containers by using of a robot, having a support structure and a blade, which is reversibly adjustable relative to the support structure in a pass-beneath direction in order to support at least one container, in particular a stack of containers, in a supporting direction at right angles to the pass-beneath direction. The gripper includes: a) a punch arrangement having a first punch, which is reversibly adjustable relative to the support structure in the supporting direction; b) a sucker arrangement having a first sucker in order to suck onto a first suction side of the container or stack of containers at right angles to the supporting direction; and/or c) a side jaw arrangement having a first side jaw, which is reversibly adjustable relative to the support structure in a first covering direction; and a second side jaw, which is reversibly adjustable relative to the support structure in a second covering direction at right angles to the first covering direction.

Abstract: A device for handling a pallet includes a pallet through-opening, through which a pallet can be vertically moved while oriented horizontally. The pallet through-opening has in particular at least one extension, which is more than 1200 mm wide and 1200 mm deep, and at least one sidewall, which are each arranged along an associated side of the pallet through-opening. At least one of the sidewalls is detachable or movable.

Abstract: A floor-bound continuous conveyor for intralogistics includes at least one frame and at least one load-carrying means which has a conveying plane for piece goods and which is configured to transport the piece goods in a conveying direction. A stop means is configured to stop an item of piece goods transported on the conveying plane in the conveying direction at a predetermined position on the load-carrying means. A movement apparatus is designed to move the item of piece goods resting against the stop means on the conveying plane from the starting position and orientation thereof standing on the conveying plane of the load handling device into an end position and orientation deviating from the starting position and orientation on the load-carrying means out of the conveying plane of the load-carrying means into the end position and orientation.

Abstract: A method for the automated operation of a greenhouse which has at least one first plant growth room which is operated without artificial lighting and which has at least one second plant growth room which is different from the first plant growth room and which is equipped with artificial light sources for generating artificial light. An associated supply device and an associated greenhouse can be operated automatically.

Abstract: A method for storing and/or order-picking product units in a storage and/or order-picking installation (P1), in which incoming transporting units are stored on an interim basis in a store, are supplied, if required, to a depalletizing station (4) and are individually stored on an interim basis in a buffer store (6) for product units. Thereafter, branch-specific mixed pallets (16) are automatically set up, supplied to the delivery zone (11) and loaded onto lorries. The system solution is distinguished, in particular, in that it can dispense entirely with transporting aids such as shelves for product units, rows of product units or for entire layers of transporting units. The transport shuttles (8) provided and the rail installation (8a) perform largely the functions of transporting aids, storage means and conveying systems.
