Abstract:
The present disclosure aims to provide a charge unit for a robotic load handling device which reduces the wear/damage experienced by charge contacts of the charge unit and provides a solution whereby easier servicing of the charge unit can be accomplished. A charge unit for a robotic load handling device is operative on top of a grid framework. The charge unit includes a plurality of profiled sections arranged to interface with a hoist element of the robotic load handling device, and a power transfer device is arranged to transfer power to the robotic load handling device.
