TRANSFERRING UNIT, ARTICLE TRANSFERRING SYSTEM, AND CONTROL METHOD OF TRANSFERRING UNIT
The present invention provides a transferring unit traveling on a rail provided along a ceiling, the transferring unit including: a body provided with a traveling driver; traveling wheel rotated by receiving power from the traveling driver; a grip member configured to grip an article; a lifting member provided between the body and the grip member and configured to move the grip member in a vertical direction; and a controller, in which the controller lowers or raises the grip member while the transferring unit travels on the rail, in which the controller controls the lifting member and the traveling driver so that the lowering or raising of the grip member is performed in a constant speed section in which the transferring unit travels at a constant speed.
Data object information processing methods, apparatuses, and systems
Data object information processing methods, apparatuses, and systems are provided. The data object information processing system includes a suspension chain conveyance subsystem. The suspension chain conveyance subsystem is deployed in an offline store including first operation regions and second operation regions. The suspension chain conveyance subsystem includes a control component and a conveying track. The conveying track is configured to connect the first operation regions and the second operation regions. The control component is configured to assign a second operation region according to the wave identifier after receiving a notification message from a first operation execution subsystem. First operation tasks of the wave correspond to the same second operation region. A conveyance instruction is sent to the conveying track according to the assignment result, for conveying the first operation container to the corresponding second operation region.

A RAIL-GUIDED WAGON
A rail-guided wagon for transporting a carrier carrying a package in a form and seal machine is provided. The wagon comprises: a set of spaced-apart wheels to be distributed on each side of the rail, wherein a first subset of the wheels to be arranged on a first side of the rail is spring-biased towards a second subset of the wheels to be arranged on an opposite side of the rail.
DEVICE FOR EMPTYING TRANSPORT BAGS CONVEYED IN A SUSPENDED MANNER
A device for emptying transport bags conveyed in a suspended manner, includes a conveying system via which transport bags may be supplied in a suspended manner along a conveying path. The transport bags have a pocket that is open at the top when in the filled state and a front side. A circulating conveyor belt for receiving piece good units transported in the transport bags is included, and in a contact section, the conveying paths of the conveying system and the conveyor belt are situated relative to one another in such a way that the distance between the conveying paths of the conveying system and the conveyor belt become continuously smaller, so that when a transport bag is conveyed along the contact section, the front side of the pocket of the transport bag contacts and comes to rest on the conveyor belt, and the transport bag is thereby pivoted backwards.
