Abstract: A system for unloading inventory items includes an inventory holder, an unloading station, and a mobile drive unit. The inventory holder stores inventory items. The unloading station includes a barrier that is operable to prevent inventory items from moving past the barrier as the inventory holder moves past the barrier. The mobile drive unit is operable to move the inventory holder toward the unloading station and to move the inventory holder past the barrier.

Abstract: A method for unloading inventory items includes storing an inventory item on an inventory holder and moving the inventory holder toward an unloading station with a mobile drive unit. Additionally, the method includes moving the inventory holder past a barrier of the unloading station. The method further includes preventing the inventory item from moving past the barrier as the mobile drive unit moves the inventory holder past the barrier.

Abstract: The apparatus includes a basket body, a basket door with a pivoting mechanism for attaching the door to a bottom portion of the basket body and a basket slider connected to the basket door. The basket door is pivotal between an open position and a closed position. The apparatus also includes a handle with a handle housing and comprising a trigger member in the handle housing. The trigger member has a pivot end in the slot in the opposite end. The apparatus also has a basket drive rod with a first end and a second end. The first end connects to the basket slider and the second end slidably engages the slot of the trigger member. In operation, pivoting of the trigger member about the trigger pivot and translates the basket drive rod with a translation moving the basket slider. The basket slider moves the basket door between an opened and a closed position.
