Problems solved by technology

However, the disadvantage of this method is that the "goods-to-person" transportation method requires a relatively large transport vehicle, and the cost of the transportation vehicle is high; secondly, the energy consumption of the transportation operation is high enough to be low-carbon and environmentally friendly; Difficult to optimize, not suitable for high-frequency popular products

Embodiment 1

[0064] In the first embodiment, a warehouse operation system is firstly provided, see figure 2 , the warehouse includes a picking area and a packing area, and the picking area includes a plurality of shelves for storing goods;

[0065] Specifically, the system includes: a first server 201, and multiple transport vehicles 202; wherein,

[0066] The first server 201 is configured to generate multiple picking tasks according to the same batch of orders in the warehouse, and distribute the multiple picking tasks to multiple transport vehicles;

[0067] The transport vehicle 202 is configured to obtain a first driving route corresponding to the picking task and a second driving route for transporting the picking result to a destination location; a driving target according to the first driving route At the shelf, after the target goods are loaded, the target goods are transported according to the second driving route.

[0068] Wherein, the first server 201 may specifically be use...

Embodiment 2

[0100] The second embodiment corresponds to the first embodiment, and provides a warehouse order processing method from the perspective of the first server, see Figure 7 , the method may specifically include:

[0101] S701: Generate a picking task according to the order corresponding to the target warehouse;

[0102] S702: Assign the picking task to a transport vehicle in the target warehouse, where the transport vehicle is used to obtain the first driving path for completing the picking task, and to transport the picking result to the destination The second driving route of the position: driving the target shelf according to the first driving route, and transporting the target goods according to the second driving route after the loading of the target goods is completed.

[0103] During specific implementation, the first server is usually located in the cloud, and it is also possible to control the path of the transport vehicle from the cloud. Specifically, the first serve...

Embodiment 3

[0107] The third embodiment also corresponds to the first embodiment, and provides a warehouse operation control method from the perspective of the second server, see Figure 8 , the method may specifically include:

[0108] S801: Obtain map data in the warehouse in advance, the map data including the location of each shelf in the warehouse and the second corresponding relationship between the shelf and the goods;

[0109] S802: Receive the first correspondence relationship information between the transport vehicle identifier and the picking task information provided by the first server;

[0110] S803: Obtain real-time positioning information of the transport vehicle in the warehouse;

[0111] S804: According to the position of the target shelf where the target goods in the picking task are located, the destination location of the delivery, and the real-time positioning information of the transport vehicle, plan a first trip for the transport vehicle to complete the picking tas...

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses a warehouse operation control method, device and system. A warehouse comprises a goods picking area and a packaging area, and the goods picking area comprisesa plurality of goods shelves for storing goods; the system comprises a first server and a plurality of transport vehicles, wherein the first server is used for generating a plurality of order pickingtasks according to orders of the same batch in a warehouse, and distributing the plurality of order picking tasks to the plurality of transport vehicles; the transport vehicles are used for obtaininga first driving path used for completing the order picking task and a second driving path used for conveying an order picking result to a target position, driving to a target goods shelf according tothe first driving path, and conveying the target goods according to the second driving path after the target goods are loaded. Through the embodiment of the invention, the operation efficiency in thewarehouse can be improved, and meanwhile, the software and hardware costs are controlled.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the technical field of warehouse operation control, in particular to a warehouse operation control method, device and system. Background technique [0002] In some scenarios, merchants may deploy multi-level warehouses. For example, for the "Hema" store scenario, DC (Distribution Center, distribution center) warehouses can be deployed in units of cities, etc. In addition, each specific "Hema" store can also be used as a front warehouse. The front-end warehouse mainly fulfills some orders with a short delivery time limit. For example, if an order requires delivery within 30 minutes, it will be delivered from the corresponding "Hema" store for the user. DC warehouses can fulfill orders with longer delivery times. Usually, the area of ​​the DC warehouse will be relatively large, which can be used to receive and process the order information of the end user, perform operations such as picking, processing, assembling, an...
