Embodiment Construction

[0058] The present invention is described below based on examples, but the present invention is not limited to these examples. In the following detailed description of the invention, some specific details are set forth in detail. The present invention can be fully understood by those skilled in the art without the description of these detailed parts. In order to avoid obscuring the essence of the present invention, well-known methods, procedures, and flow charts are not described in detail. Additionally, the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale.

[0059] The current goods-to-person picking workstations mostly adopt the following specifications: the workstation is divided into upper and lower layers, each layer has 3 grid openings, the upper layer is connected to the conveying channel of the source material box, and the lower layer is connected to the conveying channel of the destination material box; the workstation and the conveying There is a curved buffer road at t...

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides a sorting task distribution method and distribution system, and the method comprises the steps: obtaining request information which is the information of a sorting task for requesting to distribute a work station when material boxes are collected; determining the workstations meeting the first condition and the second condition in the warehouse as undetermined workstations, wherein the first condition is that the current task number of the workstations is smaller than the maximum task number, the second condition is that the number of tasks not completely reached by the workstation workbins is smaller than the number of available slots, and the maximum task number is larger than the number of available slots; and executing the picking task through the undetermined workstation. According to the invention, the workstation for executing the picking task is determined through the first condition and the second condition, and the technical problem oflow picking efficiency in the goods-to-person picking workstation is solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of warehouse picking task distribution, in particular to a picking task distribution method and distribution system. Background technique [0002] In the goods-to-person picking workstation, when multiple bins of an outbound picking task are collected, an optimal workstation will be requested to be allocated, and the subsequent conveyor line will dispatch the bins to the workstation for picking. [0003] At present, workstations are allocated according to the main task dimension of the outbound warehouse, and the current number of tasks in the warehouse is less than the maximum number of tasks (the maximum number of tasks is the number of physical slots on the workstation), and the workstation with the smallest ratio between the current number of tasks and the maximum number of tasks is determined The workstation used for the outbound picking task, so that people can pick at the identified workstation. In t...
