Embodiment Construction

[0030] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the application with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the application. Apparently, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the application, not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by persons of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of this application.

[0031] In the field of logistics, the items in the logistics package need to be packed into the package box. However, articles are usually stored uniformly in article storage spaces such as warehouses. The current packing method is to first remove all articles in the packing list from each shelf in the warehouse according to the packing list, and then manually remove the items from the packing list. All items removed from the shelves are packed into parcel boxes.

Abstract

The invention provides an article packing method, which can determine a packing algorithm corresponding to the number of articles to be packed according to the number of articles to be packed. If thenumber of articles is large, the time complexity of the determined packing algorithm is low, thereby improving the execution efficiency of the packing algorithm. In addition, the specification information of the preserved articles can be obtained, and the specification information can be inputted into the packing algorithm to obtain a package box capable of packing all the articles and the articles packed in each package box. The method does not need to use an article entity, thereby improving the packing efficiency. Moreover, the packing algorithm can satisfy the preset packing condition in the process of solving, the packing conditions may include any one or more of a minimum number of package containers, a minimum package container size, and a closest picking path for articles within the same package container for any one or more of a maximum utilization of package container space, a minimum package container cost, and a shortest picking path for articles.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the technical field of software, more specifically, an item packing method and related equipment. Background technique [0002] In the field of logistics, the items to be transported need to be packed into a parcel box. In order to save the cost of the parcel box, usually, multiple items are loaded into one parcel box. [0003] For example, in the e-commerce industry, an order from the buyer usually contains multiple items, and an order usually corresponds to a receiving location. Therefore, the warehouse needs to use as few parcel boxes as possible to pack all the items in the same order. To reduce the cost of logistics packages. [0004] At present, when packing, items are randomly put into the parcel box manually, which may cause the space of the parcel box to be unreasonably utilized, thus actually increasing the parcel boxes that may not need to be added, resulting in the cost of logistics parcels improvement. ...
