Abstract
Description
Background Art
[0002] Cable reels are used as storage, management and transportation equipment for cables and wires. They are usually made of metal or other solid materials and are designed to accommodate cable curling and keep them neat and orderly. They are widely used in various industries. They not only help protect cables from damage, but also improve the efficiency of cable storage and use. However, with the continuous improvement of productivity and efficiency requirements, traditional manual operations and simple mechanical devices have been unable to meet the needs of modern warehousing and logistics.
[0003] In industries such as power, communications, construction, shipbuilding, and automobile manufacturing, the storage of cable reels involves multiple conflicting goals. First, it is necessary to maximize space utilization and store as many cable reels as possible in a limited space. Second, it is necessary to consider loading and unloading performance to ensure that the storage and retrieval of cable reels is both fast and accurate, reducing waiting time and operating costs. In addition, it is necessary to consider the safety of the operation to avoid injuries and losses caused by improper operation. There is often a trade-off between these three goals, and it is difficult to optimize a single goal while taking into account other goals.
[0004] Although existing automation technologies have improved the efficiency of cable reel storage to a certain extent, they still face many challenges in practical applications. First, many automation systems only optimize for a single goal, ignoring other equally important goals. Second, the warehouse environment is dynamically changing, and the size, shape, and weight of cable reels vary. Existing optimization algorithms may lack sufficient adaptability to cope with this diversity and variability. Finally, existing automation systems have certain limitations in achieving efficient and intelligent cable reel storage management, and cannot meet the urgent needs of modern production lines for high efficiency and high automation.
[0005] The storage of cable reels involves multiple conflicting goals. However, existing automation technologies face challenges in achieving accurate cable reel storage. Although some automation systems attempt to optimize algorithms to improve cable reel storage layouts, they often only optimize for a single goal, such as maximizing space utilization or improving loading and unloading performance. Single-goal optimization is difficult to meet actual needs. Secondly, the warehouse environment is dynamically changing, and the size, shape, and weight of cable reels vary. Existing optimization algorithms may lack sufficient adaptability to cope with this diversity and variability. There are certain limitations in the automated cable reel storage control, and it is impossible to achieve efficient and intelligent cable reel storage management, and it is difficult to meet the needs of modern production lines for high efficiency and high automation.
[0006] The complexity of cable drum storage management lies in the fact that it needs to meet multiple interrelated and potentially conflicting goals at the same time. In addition to space utilization and loading and unloading efficiency, it also includes but is not limited to:
[0007] Safety: Ensure that cable reels do not cause safety accidents due to unstable stacking or improper operation during storage and transportation.
[0008] Accessibility: It is easy to quickly find and remove specific types of cable reels, reducing searching time and improving productivity.
[0009] Maintenance costs: Optimize storage layout to reduce maintenance costs caused by frequently moving or rearranging cable trays.
[0010] Environmental adaptability: Consider the impact of warehouse temperature, humidity and other environmental factors on the cable reel and the cables inside it to ensure long-term storage quality.
[0011] Multi-objective optimization requires the algorithm to be able to find the best balance between these objectives, rather than just maximizing or minimizing a single objective, which greatly increases the complexity of the problem and the difficulty of solving it.
[0012] Cable reels are diverse in size, shape, weight, and the types and specifications of the cables they carry. This diversity requires automation systems to be highly flexible and adaptable, and to be able to intelligently adjust according to the characteristics of different cable reels. However, existing optimization algorithms are often based on preset models or parameters, and it is difficult to respond to changes in cable reel characteristics in real time and accurately.
[0013] In addition, the dynamic changes in the warehouse environment, such as the entry of new cable reels, the exit of old cable reels, and fluctuations in inventory, also require the automation system to respond quickly and adjust storage strategies. This dynamic nature places higher demands on the system's real-time data processing capabilities and decision-making speed. Summary of the invention

[0161] Cable drum depth: 0.3m;
[0162] Fork position (based on the cable drum depth, usually the center position):

[0179] This embodiment provides a complete process from cable drum scanning, position calculation to final storage, and assumes some specific values to simulate the actual situation. In actual applications, these values will be dynamically adjusted according to the actual situation.
[0180] In summary, the cable reel storage control method, system, medium and device of the present invention have the following characteristics:
[0181] Improve operational efficiency: Automated control reduces the time and error rate of manual operations, making the cable reel picking, scanning, calculation and storage processes faster and more accurate, thereby significantly improving the overall operational efficiency of the warehouse or production line.
[0182] Precise positioning and storage: Sensors obtain the height, angle and coordinate matrix of the truck bed, as well as the depth data and size information of the cable drum, and can accurately calculate the optimal storage position of the cable drum on the truck. This precise positioning ensures the stability of the cable drum during transportation and reduces the risk of damage caused by improper positioning.
[0183] Reduce manual intervention and errors: The entire process is highly automated, reducing the need for manual judgment and operation, thereby reducing the possibility of human error. At the same time, automated fork entry and storage operations also avoid safety accidents caused by improper human operation.
[0184] Optimize space utilization: The target storage location calculated based on the actual size information of the cable drum can make more reasonable use of the truck space and improve space utilization. This helps to reduce transportation costs and may increase the number of cable drums transported in a single trip.
[0185] Improve data management and analysis capabilities: The data collected throughout the process (such as cable drum size, truck information, storage location, etc.) can be recorded and used for subsequent data analysis and optimization. This helps companies better manage inventory, plan transportation routes and predict demand, further improving operational efficiency and reducing costs.
[0186] Enhanced flexibility and adaptability: The automation system can handle cable drums of different sizes, shapes and weights, as well as truck panels of different states (such as height and angle changes). This flexibility and adaptability enables the system to be used in a variety of scenarios, improving the company's operational efficiency and market competitiveness.
[0187] Improved working environment: Automated control reduces workers’ exposure time in dangerous or repetitive labor environments, improves working conditions, and increases workers’ job satisfaction and safety.
[0188] In summary, the present invention significantly improves operational efficiency, reduces human errors, optimizes space utilization, and enhances the flexibility and competitiveness of enterprises through automation, precision, and data-based approaches.
