An article conveying device and an article conveying method

Abstract

The invention provides object conveying equipment and an object conveying method. The object conveying equipment comprises a moving mechanism, an input module, a route planning module, a moving module, an identity information acquiring module, an identity verifying module and a control module, wherein the moving mechanism is equipped with a cargo cabinet body; the cargo cabinet body is equipped with a plurality of layers of cargo stations; each layer of cargo station is equipped with a cabinet door; each cabinet door is equipped with an intelligent lock; the input module is used for acquiringa conveying destination which is inputted by a cargo transmitting use and corresponds to each layer of cargo station where an object is placed; the route planning module is used for generating an object conveying route according to the conveying destination and an environmental map; the moving module is used for moving the object to the conveying destination corresponding to the object conveying route; the identity information acquiring module is used for acquiring the identity information of a cargo receiving user; the identity verifying module is used for verifying whether the identity information of the cargo receiving user is legal or illegal; the control module is used for opening the intelligent lock corresponding to the current conveying destination when the legal identity information of the cargo receiving user is verified; and then, the object stored in a corresponding cargo station can be conveniently taken out by the cargo receiving user. By adoption of the object conveyingequipment and the object conveying method, the conveying cost can be reduced; the object can be prevented from being lost during the object receiving and transmitting process; and the object conveyingsafety and the conveying efficiency can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of article conveying, in particular to an article conveying device and an article conveying method. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the development of robot technology and the deepening of artificial intelligence research, robots have played an increasingly important role in human life and have been widely used in many fields. Robots make people's work and life increasingly intelligent and automated. [0003] In supermarkets or hospitals, there are often pick-up users who push a large cart of items to various destinations. The work intensity of the pick-up users is high. What's more, sometimes the pick-up users will misremember the destination of the items and need to Re-transporting the wrong items to the correct destination will cause inefficiency, and hire pick-up users to transport manually. As the labor cost is getting higher and higher, the cost of transporting items will also increase great...

[0003] In supermarkets or hospitals, there are often pick-up users who push a large cart of items to various destinations. The work intensity of the pick-up users is high. What's more, sometimes the pick-up users will misremember the destination of the items and need to Re-transporting the wrong items to the correct destination, resulting in inefficiency, and hiring pick-up users to transport manually. As the labor cost is getting higher and higher, the cost of transporting items will also increase greatly

In addition, due to the non-enclosed delivery of items, it is very easy for idlers to illegally obtain the items placed in the robot when the robot is not accompanied by the pick-up user. Therefore, the safety of the items during the item delivery process is becoming more and more important.
