Various embodiments are directed to a carriage lift assembly comprising: at least one frame element configured to secure the carriage lift assembly relative to a first mast and a second mast; and at least one spreader arm extending laterally and defining at least a portion of a lift width; wherein the spreader arm width of the spreader arm comprises a selectively adjustable configuration, wherein the lift width is configured to be selectively adjustable based at least in part on the adjustable configuration of the spreader arm width. In various embodiments, the at least one spreader arm comprises an at least partially resilient configuration such that, in response to a force acting on the spreader arm in one or more directions, the spreader arm may exhibit a movement in the one or more directions so as to absorb at least a portion of the force.

Provided is a crane device with a plurality of crane robots within a limited space to improve the transport efficiency of a container. The crane device comprises: a first crane robot; and a second crane robot, wherein the first crane robot comprises: a first column configured to be movable in a first direction and extend in a second direction; a first arm unit configured to be movable along the first column; and a first drive unit installed in an upper part of the first column and configured to move the first column in the first direction, and the second crane robot comprises: a second column configured to be movable in the first direction and extend in the second direction and spaced apart from the first column; a second arm unit configured to be movable along the second column; and a second drive unit installed in a lower part of the second column and configured to move the second column in the first direction. When the first column and the second column are disposed in parallel in a third direction perpendicular to the first and second directions, the first arm unit at least partially overlaps with the second arm unit in the second direction.

Provided is an apparatus for transporting articles that can effectively treat numerous articles. The apparatus for transporting articles comprises: a frame; a first transport mounting portion connected to the frame and configured to support a first-class article from below; a second transport mounting portion connected to the frame, disposed over the first transport mounting portion and configured to support the first-class article from below; a third transport mounting portion connected to the frame, disposed over the second transport mounting portion and configured to support a second-class article different from the first-class article from below. The first transport mounting portion operates independently of the second and third transport mounting portions, and the second transport mounting portion and the third transport mounting portion operate simultaneously.

A stocker system includes a main frame, a plurality of shelves disposed within the main frame, and a crane adjacent to the main frame. The crane includes a lower module that includes a plurality of lower profiles. An upper module is disposed on the lower module. The upper module includes a plurality of upper profiles and at least one upper expandable plate. The plurality of upper profiles is disposed on the plurality of lower profiles. The at least one upper expandable plate is disposed between the plurality of upper profiles.

The invention relates to a method for transferring an item to be transported (10; 11; 12) from an end portion (2) of a flow storage system (1) to a removal device (20), comprising the steps of: using an end stop (4) arranged in the shut-off position for retaining at least one first item to be transported (10) on the end portion (2) of the flow storage system (1) and/or using a separator (5) arranged in the shut-off position to retain at least one second item to be transported (11) on a retaining section (3) of the flow storage system (1); arranging (100) the removal device (20) adjacent to the end portion (2) of the flow storage system (1) in a removal position; using at least one sensor (21) of the removal device (20) for checking (101; 111) whether the end stop (4) and/or the separator (5) is arranged in its respective shut-off position; and transferring (104) the first item to be transported (10) from the end portion (2) to the removal device (20).
