DYNAMIC COMPACT STORAGE UNIT

The invention relates to a dynamic compact storage unit with a storage rack consisting of several storage levels (1) arranged one above the other and connected to each other by means of vertically aligned transport chutes (2) for vertical conveyor devices (3). Horizontally aligned transport lanes (4) for horizontal conveyor devices (5) are provided for on the storage levels. On either side of the transport lanes the storage levels have storage channels (6) in which loading units consisting of load carriers (7) are movably positioned for the purpose of receiving items to be stored. The dynamic compact storage unit is characterized by the following features, among others: a) one or several storage levels (1) with vertically and horizontally aligned transport chutes (2) or transport lanes (4) assigned thereto form a functional unit (9) which can receive loading units (7) having the same or different dimensions; b) the storage rack is configured to receive loading units or functional units (9) of different dimensions and its modular dimension is determined by the geometric dimensions of the largest possible loading or functional unit (9); and c) one or several loading or functional units (9), which are arranged on top of and/or next to each other and to which special vertical and/or horizontal conveyor devices (3, 5) designed for the size or weight of said loading or functional units are allocated, form one functional area (8).
