  • Patent number: 11267138
    Abstract: The present invention is provided to achieve smooth devanning or depalletizing of rectangular packages while managing various situations. Package identification codes 10a, 10b, 10c, 10d are displayed at a predetermined position of each of four surfaces of front, back, left and right or on each of all surfaces of a package 5A having a rectangular shape, and code data-of the identification codes is identified by a predetermined controller via a reading unit. The code data includes size information of a height size and a width size of a code display surface of the package 5A. The controller of a robot having the reading unit and a robot hand is configured to position the robot hand with the package 5A based on a code display position and the size information.

  • Patent number: 6305599
    Abstract: A reusable assembled box and a method of transport thereof are provided, in that the box has a base with greater strength, and is capable of disassembled into compact pieces facilitating sending back thereof, thus reducing a transport cost and enabling reuse of the box in higher frequency. The box comprises a first member, a second member, and coupling members. The first member is in a substantially rectangular shape, comprises a base and a pair of opposing side walls folded up from the base. The second member is in a substantially rectangular shape and comprises a base, overlain on the base of the first member, in a shape substantially identical to that of the first member, and a pair of side walls adjacent to the walls of the first member. The coupling members detachably couples upper end corners of adjacent side walls of the first and second members assembled into a box by overlaying the bases of the first and second members.
