The invention relates to a rack serving device (1) with a load-bearing
means (4) displaceable in the height direction of a mast (2), the mast
(2) being guided by means of bogie assemblies (7, 8) on bottom and top
guide tracks and mounted so as to be displaceable along the guide tracks
by means of a bottom and top friction-locking displacement drive (13,
14). The bottom and the top adjusting mechanisms are guided by means of
height and lateral guide elements on the guide track and are designed to
be displaceable relative to the guide tracks by means of a drive system
(33). Arranged respectively between the displacement drives (13, 14) and
bogie assemblies (7, 8) is a coupling mechanism (29), comprising at least
two displaceable coupling parts (28) and, extending between the
articulation axes of the coupling parts (28), at least one coupling
connection (27) which is pivotable about the articulation axis
substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal extension of the guide
track relative to a coupling part (28) and, at an end region remote from
this articulation axis, mounted so as to be slideable in a longitudinal
guide extending substantially parallel with the longitudinal extension of
the mast (2).
