  • System and Method for Orderfilling Trip Allocation
    Publication number: 20210142265
    Abstract: Systems and method for allocating orderfilling trips in a facility are discussed. Available trips are categorized for difficulty based on specifically defined criteria and mapped to tenure groups. The amount of worker experience for each available facility worker is used to assign each available facility worker to a tenure group. Available mapped trips are allocated to facility workers belonging to the same tenure group. Trip performance verification may be accomplished in real-time using client devices assigned to a facility worker.

  • Heat recovery system which is intended for air-conditioning and to reduce the cold corridor effect
    Publication number: 20090255286
    Abstract: The invention relates to an improved heat recovery system which is intended for air-conditioning and to reduce the cold corridor effect. More specifically, the invention relates to a system for making use of heat that is released during the condensing and/or cooling of a refrigerant fluid, in order subsequently to heat an airflow passing through an open retail refrigeration cabinet or lines of same, using a specially-designed unit for distributing and supplying heated air. The inventive assembly is equipped with a regulation and control device which can be used to maintain acceptable comfort levels for customers in the areas surrounding said open retail refrigeration cabinets or lines of same. The inventive system represents a significant improvement in relation to the design of the previously-patented system.
