English

Subject field(s)
  • Trucks and Dollies (Materials Handling)
CONT

A reaching carriage-type truck... has forks that move forward on a pantograph mechanism when engaging a load. By extending the truck's reaching capability, loads can be stacked two deep, thus saving the space needed for an aisle at the back of a storage rack.

[...] Un parallélogramme articulé dont le déploiement et la rétraction sont commandés par un vérin hydraulique à double effet permet un mouvement avant-arrière d'une grande amplitude [...] du tablier porte-fourche de l'élévateur. [...] Arrivé au point à hauteur de dépose, le cariste déploie le parallélogramme, dépose la charge, rétracte et dégage ainsi sa fourche de la charge sans mouvement propre de l'élévateur. La manœuvre de reprise s'effectue dans les mêmes conditions.

Subject field(s)
  • Orbital Stations
CONT

The Leonardo Multipurpose Logistics Module, which was built by the Italian Space Agency (ASI), is the first of three such pressurized modules that will serve as the International Space Station’s "moving vans," carrying laboratory racks filled with equipment, experiments and supplies to and from the Station aboard the Space Shuttle. The unpiloted, reusable logistics modules function as both a cargo carrier and a Space Station module when they are flown. Mounted in the Space Shuttle’s cargo bay for launch and landing, they are berthed to the Station using the shuttle’s robotic arm after the shuttle has docked. While berthed to the Station, racks of equipment are unloaded from the module and then old racks and equipment may be reloaded to be taken back to Earth. The logistics module is then detached from the Station and positioned back into the Shuttle’s cargo bay for the trip home. When in the cargo bay, the cargo module is independent of the Shuttle cabin, and there is no passageway for Shuttle crewmembers to travel from the Shuttle cabin to the module. In order to function as an attached Station module as well as a cargo transport, the logistics modules also include components that provide some life support, fire detection and suppression, electrical distribution and computer functions. Eventually, the modules also will carry refrigerator freezers for transporting experiment samples and food to and from the station.

Record 6 1998-11-27

English

Subject field(s)
  • Materials Storage
CONT

"Live" Storage. Once in the rack, no mechanical equipment or manpower is needed to move loaded pallets to the exit end-gravity, speed retarders and quiet wheels do the work. This eliminates all aisles with the exception of the entrance aisle and the exit aisle. Since aisles are the major loss of usable storage space in any system, lack of them in FORMRACK live storage rack produces an almost solid volume of usable storage space.

  • Stockage
CONT
