System comprising a tugger train and at least one stationary transfer station

摘要

The invention relates to a system (1) comprising a tugger train (2) which has a towing vehicle (3) and at least one tugger train trailer (4a; 4b; 4c; 4d) and at least one stationary transfer station (5a; 5b; 5c; 5d) for the transfer of loads (L1; L2; L3; L4) between the tugger train trailer (4a; 4b; 4c; 4d) and the stationary transfer station (5a; 5b; 5c; 5d), the tugger train trailer (4a; 4b; 4c; 4d) is in a defined transfer position relative to the stationary transfer station (5a; 5b; 5c; 5d) for load transfer. The tugger train trailer (4a; 4b; 4c; 4d) has two light barriers (LS1, LS2) which are arranged at a distance from one another in the longitudinal direction (F) of the tugger train trailer (4a; 4b; 4c; 4d) and which are attached to the tugger train trailer (4a; 4b; 4c ; 4d) are each arranged with a detection direction aligned in the transverse direction (Q) of the tugger train trailer (4a; 4b; 4c; 4d), and the stationary transfer station (5a; 5b; 5c; 5d) is connected to one with the light barriers (LS1, LS2 ) cooperating reflector (RF) provided. The light barriers (LS1, LS2) are in operative connection with a drive control (40) of the tugger train (2) and the drive control (40) is designed in such a way that the light signals reflected by the light barriers (LS1, LS2) on the reflector (RF) the tugger train trailer (4a; 4b; 4c; 4d) is stopped at the stationary transfer station (5a; 5b; 5c; 5d) in the defined transfer position.
