Problems solved by technology

In the past replenishment process, the replenishment staff regularly check the quantity of goods in each vending machine aisle and use the server platform sales data analysis to determine the replenishment information. This method not only has poor replenishment timeliness, but also has low labor utilization. Moreover, it cannot meet the elastic demand caused by various factors such as different venues, temperature, and flow of people. It is easy to cause the problem that the replenishment personnel cannot be accurate and thick. Either the goods are not enough and need to be replenished twice, or the goods are too much and replenished. The small amount of goods causes problems such as high computing costs. Therefore, it is necessary to design an intelligent inventory management system and method for vending machines

Embodiment 1

[0070] Embodiment 1: as figure 1 , an automatic vending cabinet intelligent inventory management system and method, the technical solution provided is realized by using the automatic vending cabinet and the equipped Internet of Things card, the mobile terminal carried by the replenishment staff, and the background server information management system.

[0071] It mainly includes the following steps:

[0072] Step (1) The server inventory management information system generates a replenishment order based on the sales data of the automatic vending cabinet and the returned inventory information and sends it to the replenisher APP.

[0073] The automatic vending cabinet is equipped with a communication module and a positioning module (the positioning module can be a Beidou module or a GPS module). After the replenishment is completed, the IoT card of the automatic vending cabinet will be synchronized with the inventory information of the server. The automatic vending cabinet can ...

Abstract

The invention discloses an intelligent storage management system and method of an automatic vending machine. The method includes the following steps of firstly, generating a goods supplementing list;secondly, supplementing goods to the automatic vending machine by a goods supplementing worker referring to the goods supplementing list; thirdly, taking pictures of goods ways or goods layers and uploading the pictures to a server, taking pictures of all the goods ways and front side of the goods-supplemented automatic vending machine by the goods supplementing worker through a camera on a mobileterminal after goods supplementing is completed or taking pictures of all the goods ways and goods layers through an inner camera of the automatic vending machine and sending the taken pictures to the server; fourthly, processing the received pictures by the server so as to complete storage information of the goods-supplemented automatic vending machine. The intelligent storage management systemand method are easy to obtain and implement and high in goods supplementing efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an intelligent inventory management system and method for an automatic vending machine. Background technique [0002] Automatic vending cabinets have developed vigorously in recent years and have already appeared in various public places. The replenishment efficiency of automatic vending cabinets has become a bottleneck restricting its development. In the past replenishment process, the replenishment staff regularly check the quantity of goods in each vending machine aisle and use the server platform sales data analysis to determine the replenishment information. This method not only has poor replenishment timeliness, but also has low labor utilization. Moreover, it cannot meet the elastic demand caused by various factors such as different venues, temperature, and flow of people. It is easy to cause the problem that the replenishment personnel cannot be accurate and thick. Either the goods are not enough and need to be replenis...
