Abstract

A device (1) and method used to pick up, handle and store packages (C1, C2, C3, C4) in an automated warehouse are disclosed. The device (1) comprises: a support frame (2) arranged on a handling means designed to move in the warehouse, forks (5) slidingly mounted on the support frame (2) to be arranged under the package to be picked, and actuation means (7) to translate the said forks (5). The device (1 ) comprises at least three forks (5) translated independently in such a way to simultaneously pick multiple packages (C1, C2, C3, C4) with different dimensions.

Claims

AMENDED CLAIMS received by the International Bureau on 21 January 2010 (21.01.10)
1) Device (1) used to pick up, handle and store packages (C1 , C2, C3, C4) in an automated warehouse, comprising: - a support frame (2) arranged on a handling means designed to move in the warehouse,
- forks (5) slidingly mounted on the support frame (2) and designed to be situated under the package to be picked,
- actuation means (7) to translate the said forks (5), - at least three forks (5) translated independently in such a way to simultaneously pick multiple packages with different dimensions, characterised in that the forks (5) have different translation travels.
2) Device (1) as claimed in claim 1 , characterised in that the actuation means (7) comprise a number of electrical motors (70) equal to the number of forks (5), in which each electrical motor (70) translates the corresponding fork (5) by means of drive means (71 , 72, 30).
3) Device (1) as claimed in claim 1 , characterised in that the said actuation means (7) only comprise one electrical motor (170) that drives into rotation a drive shaft (172) provided with a number of pinions equal to the number of forks (5), in which each pinion of the drive shaft (172) translates the corresponding fork (5) by means of drive means (30).
4) Device (1) as claimed in claim 3, characterised in that it comprises a number of friction gears (173) equal to the number of forks (5) to enable/disable the engagement of the corresponding pinion on the drive shaft (172).
5) Device (1) as claimed in any of the above claims, characterised in that each fork (5) is part of a telescopic system comprising a guide track (3) joined to the support frame (2) and an intermediate rod (4) slidingly mounted on the guide track (3), with the fork (5) being slidingly mounted on the said intermediate rod (4).
6) Device (1) as claimed in any of the above claims, characterised in 11
that it comprises a number of forks (5) ranging from 3 to 15.
7) Method to pick up, handle and store packages (C1, C2, C3f C4) in an automated warehouse, provided with the device (1) according to any of the above claims, wherein the method provides for the simultaneous picking of at least two packages (C 1 , C2, C3, C4), characterised in that the forks (S) of the device (1) are translated according to different travels.
8) Method as claimed in claim 7, characterised in that the forks (5) are translated independently.
