  • Publication number: 20220063916
    Abstract: A stack storage assembly with container stacking spaces, a charging space arranged below the container stacking spaces, and a charging vehicle movable in the charging space having a hoisting device to move a container into or out of a container stacking space. Each of the container stacking spaces has, at a lower end, a retaining device with at least one retaining element, which is movable, via an actuating device arranged on the charging vehicle, between a retaining position in which the at least one retaining element holds the container arranged in the container stacking spaces and a release position in which the container is relocated past the retaining element. The charging vehicle has at least one fixing element positionable into a fixing position to interact with the at least one retaining element located in the release position, and to hold the at least one retaining element in the release position.

  • Publication number: 20220063387
    Abstract: A charging vehicle for a stack storage assembly includes a chassis; a first impeller assembly structured and arranged to move the chassis in a first direction; a second impeller assembly structured and arranged to move the chassis in a second direction transverse to the first direction; and a hoisting device comprising a hoisting drive acting perpendicularly to the first direction and to the second direction. The hoisting device has a hoisting platform movable, with the hoisting drive, upwardly in the direction of gravity from an initial position into a lifted position. The hoisting drive acts downwardly on the second impeller assembly in the direction of gravity and downwardly moves the second impeller assembly beyond the first impeller assembly.
