  • Publication number: 20120282068
    Abstract: A shelf storage system comprises shelves having several shelf levels arranged on top of each other. Each shelf level has at least one transport aisle between the shelves with storage spaces for products. In the transport aisle, a level operating device for moving to the storage spaces is provided. At least two lifts take products to the shelf levels and fetch them from there. A conveyor transports products toward the lifts and away from them. The lifts are, in each case, connected both to a supplying and to a removing conveyor and thus are, in each case, designed both for receiving products from the conveyor and for supplying these products to the shelf levels as well as for removing products from the shelf levels and transferring these products onto the conveyor.
