ABSTRACT:
An unloading mechanism for a shelf storage system in which a load of goods is supported on a pallet which constitutes a unit load, the load and pallet resting on a mobile storage and transport unit which unit is subjected to the action of the unloading mechanism for removal from the storage pile. The unloading mechanism comprises a modified section of a trackway at the very end at a vertical stop where the unit load, with its four wheeled unit, is lifted by a lifting conveyer to elevate the front wheels of the four wheeled unit first over the stop and then over a cam which is hump shaped and facilitates the pulling of the wheeled unit to clear the front wheels. The lifting is done at the front by the lifting conveyer and done by the wheels engaging the hump shaped cams at the back. The load is then removed. A follow-up unit load of goods on a pallet and four wheeled transport unit moves down the inclined trackway to replace the unit load just removed.
