  • Patent number: 10071859
    Abstract: A picking device for piece goods is disclosed, in which cleaning of the picking device is facilitated. The picking device may include a shelf row having shelf bases, each including a plurality of storage chutes, and a retrieving device, via which piece goods can be retrieved. A shelf base may include a frame structure, chute partitions, chute bases, and blocking devices, which are coupled to a control device. Two chute partitions and one chute base may define one elongate storage chute, assigned to each chute base is a support device, on which the chute base rests and which is designed such that another chute base can be slid between the resting chute base and the support device. Assigned to each chute base is a holding means, which prevents the chute base from sliding in the longitudinal direction of the storage chute when the chute base is on the support device.

  • Patent number: 7097129
    Abstract: A yarn winding apparatus for continuously winding yarns to packages. The winding apparatus has a plurality of winding spindles, which are mounted in cantilever fashion for rotation on a movable turret, and which are alternately guided between a winding position for winding the yarns and a doffing position for removing the packages and assembling fresh tubes. To put on the tubes on the winding spindle, a tube slip-on device is provided, which comprises a movable means for guiding the tubes. To make it possible to put on tubes on the winding spindles held in the doffing position even during the progressive movement of the turret, the guide means for slipping on the tubes is movable for a short time or distance synchronously with the winding spindle that is moved by rotation of the turret.
