Catch mechanism facilitating loading of vertical grow towers onto grow lines in a vertical farm system

This device helps load vertical grow towers onto a moving grow line in a vertical farm. It features a flat surface with hinged plates on its sides that register a tower in position. An actuator can then rotate one of these plates to lower its edge, allowing the grow tower to pass and be loaded onto the grow line.

Why it matters: The increasing availability of cost-effective, robust industrial actuators and control systems since 2020 could simplify implementation.
