ABSTRACT

A warehouse for storing and retrieving goods on load carriers includes racks
with transport aisles along which a distribution vehicle can travel. Storage
spaces are arranged to the sides of the transport aisles, and a connecting
aisle intersects the transport aisles at crossing points. Both the transport
aisles and the connecting aisle include guides with a running rail for the
vehicle and side walls along the rail. At each junction of a transport aisle
with a connecting aisle, four crossing points are defined. The junction is
formed as an integral frame element fastened to a rack-mounted horizontal
support surface in the region of the crossing points. The frame element is
secured by connecting elements positioned laterally outside both the running
rail and the plane of the side walls, thereby providing stable support while
allowing uninterrupted travel of the distribution vehicle through the
intersecting aisles.
