Embodiments provide for systems and methods related to kiosks for personalizing a packaged article. The kiosks may also be used for storage, inventory management, retrieval, packaging, and/or personalization of packaged articles. The kiosks discussed herein differ from non-kiosk personalization systems, such as personalization systems installed on a factory or warehouse floor, in that the kiosks are self-contained personalization systems. In some embodiments, the kiosks are portable and can be moved between different sites or events. This portability allows the kiosks to personalize packaged articles for concerts, festivals, conventions, trade shows, and the like.

A vertical support for a transport robot includes a column assembly and a driving assembly. The vertical support includes a fixed column frame and a movable column frame movably arranged on the fixed column frame. The driving assembly includes a traction assembly and a retractable assembly connected to the traction assembly. The traction assembly is connected to the carrying device and configured to drive a carrying device of the transport robot to move relative to the movable column frame. The traction assembly includes two sets of traction assemblies located at two opposed sides of the carrying device respectively, the retractable assembly is configured to drive the two sets of the traction assemblies to synchronously drive the carrying device to ascend or descend.

A selective access device for a picking/depositing station in warehouse defines an access area engaged by a first cover that is defined by a pair of movable plane surfaces parallel or coplanar to one another; these plane surfaces are slidable along a first rectilinear axis under the action of a movement system so as to open/close a first opening; in the access area, there is provided a second cover above the first cover, to define a second opening aligned with the first opening; the second cover consists of a plurality of doors, each rotating about a relative rotation axis in respect to the first cover; the doors are arranged side-by-side along a second rectilinear axis, orthogonal to the first axis and are closed by respective locks, while the rotation axes are parallel to this second axis.

A selective access device for a picking/deposit station in an automated warehouse defines an area which is accessible after having formed a passage having a front edge, a rear edge and two side edges opposite one another; the device is provided with a first cover engaging the area and includes a roller shutter, which is operated to open, so as to define the front edge of the passage, and with a second cover, which engages the area above the first cover, is defined by a plurality of doors beside one other along a first straight axis and is operated to open so as to define the side edges of the passage; the doors can slide to open and close along respective second axes orthogonal to the first axis, so as to also define the rear edge of the passage when the second cover is open.

An inventory management system comprising at least one storage unit, first and second robotic apparatus, and a control server. The control server receives a handling request for handling one or more inventory items stored in the storage unit and communicates a first set of instructions to first robotic apparatus to cause the first robotic apparatus to transport the storage unit from an inventory storage area to a processing area. The control server further communicates a second set of instructions to second robotic apparatus to cause the second robotic apparatus to receive the inventory items and transport the received inventory items to an operation area. The control server further communicates a third set of instructions to the second robotic apparatus to cause the second robotic apparatus to align with an identified target platform for transferring the transported inventory items to the identified target platform.

The present invention relates to the technical field of vertical automatic storage cabinets and provides a vertical automatic storage cabinet that comprises: a cabinet body; storage racks; a grasping structure and a conveying structure. In the present vertical automatic storage cabinet, at least two storage racks are provided to be spaced apart in the height direction of the cabinet body, and the grasping structure is located in the area between the two storage racks. When in use, the storage boxes on both the upper and lower sides can be taken off the mounting rack, then can be transferred to the conveying structure, and the storage boxes can be conveyed to the outside of the cabinet body.
