TOTE TIPPING SYSTEM

A tote tipping system including a frame extending from a first (lower) end to a second (upper) end, a tote support fixture configured to selectively engage and secure a tote, and a drive mechanism configured to move the tote support fixture between the first end of the frame and the second end of the frame. When the tote support fixture is at the first end of the frame, the tote support fixture is at a first angular orientation relative to the frame, and when the tote support fixture is at the second end of the frame, the tote support fixture is at a second angular orientation relative to the frame. In the first angular orientation, a tote can be secured to the tote support fixture, and, in the second angular orientation, parcels fall out of the tote under the force of gravity
