Abstract

The invention relates to a modular system (1) for moving storage elements, including a plurality of adjacent modules (200) and at least one bin (300) that can be moved in the modular structure from one module to an adjacent module, with a module including a frame (210) of rectangular parallelepiped shape including bars (212, 213, 214, 215) that are assembled together, at least either the modules or the bins including at least one actuator (400) and the other, modules or bins, comprising including complementary cavities (700), either the actuators or the cavities being fixed to the bars of the frame, the other being fixed to the bin, the actuators and the cavities being configured to cooperate so as to move a bin located at least partially inside one module in translation to an adjacent module.
