Embodiment 1

[0044] First, refer to figure 1 An example electronic device 100 for implementing the shelf scheduling method, device, electronic device and warehouse management system of the embodiments of the present invention will be described.

[0045] Such as figure 1 A schematic structural diagram of an electronic device is shown, the electronic device 100 includes one or more processors 102, one or more storage devices 104, an input device 106, an output device 108 and one or more image acquisition devices 110, these components The interconnections are via bus system 112 and / or other forms of connection mechanisms (not shown). It should be noted that figure 1 The components and structure of the electronic device 100 shown are only exemplary and not limiting. According to needs, the electronic device may also have other components and structures, or the electronic device may also have fewer components than those shown in the figure. Alternatively, the electronic device can also have ...

Embodiment 2

[0053] This embodiment provides a shelf scheduling method, which can be applied to the above-mentioned electronic equipment; the electronic equipment communicates with the robot; the robot is used to transport the shelves to the target site; figure 2 As shown, the method includes the following steps:

[0054] Step S202, based on the preset order to be processed, determine the shelf to be dispatched and the target site that the shelf to be dispatched needs to visit;

[0055] The above preset pending orders can be orders sent by users using computers, tablets, mobile phones or wearable devices through web pages, shopping apps and other applications; they can also be orders entered manually in large quantities, such as bulk goods orders etc.; it can also be an order generated by the control system of the warehouse or workshop to meet the materials or parts required by a certain production link.

[0056] The number of orders to be processed is often multiple; for example, the wa...

Embodiment 3

[0066] This embodiment provides another shelf scheduling method, which is implemented on the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments; this embodiment focuses on determining the shelf to be dispatched and the target site that the shelf to be dispatched needs to visit based on the preset order to be processed Specific process; in this embodiment, there are multiple orders to be processed, and multiple target sites. Such as image 3 As shown, the shelf scheduling method of this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0067] Step S302, assigning multiple pending orders to corresponding target sites according to preset assignment rules;

[0068] The above-mentioned preset allocation principle can be the allocation of orders to be processed within a certain period of time. The time can be 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 1 hour, half a day or a day, and can be allocated by the warehouse system or manually. The allocation principle can be determined according to the busyness of the curre...

Abstract

The invention provides a shelf scheduling method and device, electronic equipment and a warehouse management system. The shelf scheduling method comprises the steps of determining a to-be-scheduled shelf and a target site to be accessed by the to-be-scheduled shelf based on a preset to-be-processed order; according to a preset constraint relationship, determining an access scheme for the to-be-scheduled shelf to access the target site, so that the total consumed time for the to-be-scheduled shelf to access the target site is minimum, wherein the constraint relationship comprises that at any moment in a future preset time period, the number of shelves being accessed in any site is smaller than or equal to a preset maximum shelf amount; and according to an access scheme, controlling the robot to convey the to-be-scheduled shelf to the target site. According to the method, the situation that one station is accessed by more shelves at the same time can be avoided, so that the shelf quantity among the stations tends to be average, the situation that the busy degree among the stations is more average due to the fact that multiple shelves are distributed to the same station in a future period of time is avoided, and the generation efficiency of the system order is further improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of artificial intelligence, in particular to a shelf scheduling method, device, electronic equipment and warehouse management system. Background technique [0002] In an automated goods-to-person warehouse, the warehouse management system dispatches robots according to certain rules and procedures to transport the shelves to each picking site (referred to as the site) through the robot, and the staff on the site pick from the shelves according to the order. related goods to complete the order production process. There are usually multiple stations in the warehouse, and within a period of time, there will be multiple robots delivering shelves to the station; therefore, the warehouse management system needs to adopt a scheduling strategy to reasonably allocate each shelf to the corresponding station. [0003] In related technologies, random scheduling, nearest site scheduling, and greedy selection of the most...
