A system for arranging containers and container lids on a rack. The system comprises a first rotation unit for receiving the rack, a second rotation unit for conveying the rack, and a robotic arm configured to arrange containers and container lids conveyed by the one or more motorized conveyor elements onto the rack received by the first rotation unit. The first rotation unit is configured to rotate the rack received relative to the robotic arm around a first vertical axis, to allow the robotic arm to arrange containers on the rack, and to convey the rack received to the second rotation unit. The second rotation unit is configured to rotate the rack around a second vertical axis, and to convey the rack to one or more motorized conveyor elements configured for conveying the rack, or one or more transport vehicles configured for transporting the rack.

A method includes grasping, with a handling machine, the removable shell of the pocket wagon, lifting it and setting it down outside the receptacle of the railway structure, preferably on the platform or at an angle across the railroad tracks. The method also includes equipping a locking device on the kingpin of the semi-trailer previously disconnected from its road tractor and loading the semi-trailer by means of a handling machine, by causing it to roll on the bottom wall of the removable shell. The method further includes attaching the locking device to the removable shell, and grasping the loaded shell with the handling machine, lifting it and loading it on the pocket wagon by engaging it in the receptacle of the railway structure.

The device for emptying and then disposing of trays filled with brochures comprises a feed device for transporting the filled trays in a transport direction and a turning device for rotating the trays. The turning device may comprise a slide, which is rotatable and thus movable back and forth along a U-shaped path between a receiving position to receive the trays, an emptying position in which the brochures are pushed out of the trays, and a disposal position, in which the empty trays are disposed of. The device may also comprise at least one pusher element to push the brochures out of the trays when the slide is in the emptying position, and conveying means for conveying the brochures which have been pushed out of the tray.

The application provides a multi-storey warehouse. The warehouse includes a warehouse building, a plurality of floor levels, an inclined ramp arrangement, one or more automated storage and retrieval systems, and a handling device. The floor levels and the automated storage and retrieval system are located within the warehouse building. The inclined ramp arrangement connects the floor levels with a ground level. The automated storage and retrieval system comprises two adjacent rows of multi-storey pallet racks which are separated by an aisle. A first end of the automated storage and retrieval system is provided adjacent to a lateral side of the floor levels. The handling device is located in the area of the aisle, wherein the handling device serves a plurality of pick/place locations which are provided at the floor levels as well as a plurality of storage locations which are provided in the multi-storey pallet racks.

Systems and methods are disclosed for container dumpers having controlled unloading. In one embodiment, an example container unloading system may include a container support mechanism configured to secure a container, where the container has items inside, and a first conveyor configured to rotate from a first position to a second position. The first conveyor may be disposed in a vertical orientation adjacent to a sidewall of the container in the first position, and the first conveyor may be disposed in a non-vertical orientation adjacent to the sidewall of the container in the second position. The system may include a controller configured to cause the container support mechanism to rotate the container from a vertical orientation to a rotated orientation, and cause the first conveyor to be actuated, such that the items are conveyed out of the container by the first conveyor.
