초록 ▼

A method and system for sharing robotic mechanisms between physically remote storage libraries in an automated storage library system includes routing robotic mechanism guide structures between the storage libraries. The guide structures run through robotic mechanism transfer ports located on the sides of the housing enclosures of the storage libraries. A robotic mechanism within an first storage library moves through the transfer port of the enclosure of the first storage library onto the guide structure. The robotic mechanism then moves out of the enclosure of the first storage library along the guide structure towards a second storage library. The robotic mechanism then moves along the guide structure through the transfer port of the enclosure of the second storage library and into the second storage library for performing operations such as accessing media objects within the second storage library.

1. A storage library system comprising:a first storage library having an interior and an exterior, the first storage library having a robotic mechanism transfer port extending between the interior and the exterior of the first storage library, the interior of the first storage library having a plurality of interconnected guide tracks with one of the guide tracks of the first storage library being connected to the robotic mechanism transfer port of the first storage library; a robotic mechanism positioned on one of the guide tracks of the first storage library, wherein the robotic mechanism includes propulsion means operable for moving the robotic mechanism along the guide tracks of the first storage library; a second storage library having an interior and an exterior, the second storage library having a robotic mechanism transfer port extending between the interior and the exterior of the second storage library, the interior of the second storage library having a plurality of interconnected guide tracks with one of the guide tracks of the second storage library being connected to the robotic mechanism transfer port of the second storage library; and a guide structure routed between the exteriors of the first and second storage libraries from the robotic mechanism transfer port of the first storage library to the robotic mechanism transfer port of the second storage library, wherein the propulsion means of the robotic mechanism is operable for moving the robotic mechanism from the guide track of the first storage library connected to the robotic mechanism transfer port of the first storage library along the guide structure to the guide track of the second storage library connected to the robotic mechanism transfer port of the second storage library.
