A stack storage assembly with container stacking spaces, a charging space arranged below the container stacking spaces, and a charging vehicle movable in the charging space having a hoisting device to move a container into or out of a container stacking space. Each of the container stacking spaces has, at a lower end, a retaining device with at least one retaining element, which is movable, via an actuating device arranged on the charging vehicle, between a retaining position in which the at least one retaining element holds the container arranged in the container stacking spaces and a release position in which the container is relocated past the retaining element. The charging vehicle has at least one fixing element positionable into a fixing position to interact with the at least one retaining element located in the release position, and to hold the at least one retaining element in the release position.

A storage rack supply system used for supplying a storage rack that includes a base portion and a partition portion that is foldable and that is capable of being switched between a storage disabled state in which the partition portion is folded with respect to the base portion and a storage enabled state in which the partition portion is raised with respect to the base portion, the storage rack supply system including: a rack supply section supplying the storage rack being in the storage disabled state; a rack preparation section changing the storage rack from the storage disabled state to the storage enabled state; a transport device transporting the storage rack being in the storage disabled state from the rack supply section to the rack preparation section; and a rack unloading section unloading the storage rack being in the storage enabled state from the rack preparation section.

A magazine for bundles of blanks includes a vertical channel configured for inserting and extracting bundles of blanks and a succession of groups of supporting parts distributed along the channel. The supporting parts are configured to support the underside of a respective bundle of blanks. More specifically, each supporting part is movable between an extracted position, where it projects from the channel, towards the inside of the channel, to intercept a bundle that is moving down along the channel and to provide a steady support for the bundle, and a retracted position, where the supporting part is aligned or recessed with respect to the channel to allow the bundle to move along the channel towards a portion under the supporting part. The magazine also includes, for each supporting part, an actuating device configured to promote the passage of the supporting part from the retracted position to the extracted position and controllable by an operator, preferably manually.
