Abstract: An unmanned warehouse shuttle with telescopic arms capable of handling various sizes of packages and moving them fast and stably on rails within a warehouse system. The system provides flexibility in that a distance between the side compartments is adjustable and that the distance between the arms is adjustable. A unique extension system for the extendable arms is disclosed where the arms comprise two parts and are configured to extend and provide an extension length that is more than twice the depth of the platform of the shuttle.

Abstract: A loader of a warehouse shuttle is disclosed where extendable arms reaching to warehouse shelves comprise mechanical levers at distal ends of the extendable arms to hold a crate between the extendable arms. The mechanical levers are configured to rotate between a horizontal bottom position and a vertical upward position through operation of a crankshaft mechanism located in the extendable portions of the arms.

Abstract: A modular automated storage device and a method to operate the device is disclosed. The device can be built to different sizes and capacities depending on the number and type of modules used. A typical device has a multitude of storage modules connected to each other in one or more stories, one or more lift modules each having one or more lifts and each lift module being connected to at least one storage module. Underneath the storage modules there is a conveyor system comprising one or more conveyor modules. Each of the lift modules is configured to connect a conveyor module and one or more storage modules. Each lift in the lift modules is configured to move crates between the conveyor modules and the storage modules. The device has at least one console for loading crates and at least one console to receive the crates.

Abstract: An unmanned warehouse shuttle with telescopic arms capable of handling various sizes of packages and moving them fast and stably on in a warehouse system. The system provides increased stability in that a solid platform with stationary side compartments is provided, and the telescopic arms are constructed in a way that the two extending parts move on top of each other rather than forming a layered structure. The width of the loading space and distance between the arms is adjustable with simple screw system. A unique extension system for the extendable arms is disclosed where two of the three parts of the arms are extending and provide an extension length that is more than twice the depth of the platform of the shuttle.
