Abstract:
A workpiece container stores at least one workpiece having a bottom surface and a peripheral edge. In one embodiment, a workpiece support structure is located within the container enclosure, which forms multiple vertically stacked storage shelves within the enclosure. Each storage shelf includes, in one embodiment, a first tine and a second tine for supporting the workpiece in a substantially horizontal orientation. The bottom surface and peripheral edge of a workpiece seated on a storage shelf extends beyond the outer edge of both the first tine and the second tine. An end effector may engage these extended portions or “grip zones” of the workpiece.

Claim (Index 15):
An end effector comprising:\n a body having a length that extends in a direction; a first arm attached to and extending from the body in the direction, a second arm attached to and extending from the body in the direction; each of the first and second arms having a proximal end closer to the body than a distal end; and a distal support pad extending from each of the first and second arms towards the other arm, the distal support pad located closer to the distal end than to the proximal end, wherein the distal support pads are located in a retracted position to facilitate travel of the first and second arms vertically within an enclosure of a container, wherein the distal support pads are located in a support position to support a workpiece when present in the container, wherein in the retracted position, the distal support pads are away from each other and do not support the workpiece, and in the support position, the distal support pads are closer to each other.
