Abstract

A storage system includes at least one consolidation vehicle, a transfer rail grid, an item picking area, and an item delivery station. The consolidation vehicle includes a wheel arrangement for moving the consolidation vehicle in two perpendicular directions upon the transfer rail grid. The consolidation vehicle may be positioned upon the item picking area to receive multiple items picked from at least one storage container, and an item picker is arranged to pick items from the storage container and transfer them to the consolidation vehicle. The consolidation vehicle may be positioned upon the item delivery station to deliver items received from the storage container to a packaging/processing assembly. The consolidation vehicle includes an item carrier arranged such that items may be emptied from the item carrier when the consolidation vehicle is positioned at the item delivery station.
