[0021] The embodiments of this application are described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the embodiments of this application, and should not be construed as limiting the embodiments of this application.
[0022] Please see Figures 1 to 3 The cargo management method according to the embodiments of this application includes:
[0023] Step 011: Upon receiving an inbound task, control the handling equipment 100 to move to the production line 200 to load the goods.
[0024] Specifically, production line 200 is equipped with a first communication device 201, and each handling device 100 also has a communication module 30 and a cargo moving device 20. Production line 200 can produce goods (such as food packaging goods that need to be wrapped) and palletize the produced goods. After production line 200 completes the palletizing of goods, it sends an inbound task to the handling device 100. Specifically, the inbound task is sent from the first communication device 201 to the communication module 30 of the handling device 100 so that the cargo moving device 20 of the handling device 100 can load the goods. The inbound task includes the location information of the production line 200 that has completed palletizing. The first communication device 201 can communicate with all handling devices 100 in warehouse 300 to obtain the handling device 100 closest to the production line 200 where the first communication device 201 is located, so as to send the inbound task to the handling device 100 closest to the production line 200 where the first communication device 201 is located, thereby improving the execution efficiency of the inbound task.
[0025] Optionally, the handling equipment 100 may be an automated guided vehicle (AGV), a clamping vehicle, a tractor, a forklift, a reach stacker, a warehouse robot, or other equipment with handling capabilities.
[0026] Step 012: Control the handling equipment 100 to transport the loaded goods to the preset wrapping area 401 for wrapping.
[0027] Specifically, after the handling equipment 100 loads the goods, the goods of this application need to be wrapped with film before they can be stored. Therefore, it is necessary to control the goods moving device 20 of the handling equipment 100 to move to the preset wrapping area 401. The preset wrapping area 401 can be the area where the wrapping device 400 is located. After the goods moving device 20 moves to the preset wrapping area 401, the wrapping device 400 can wrap the goods in the preset wrapping area 401 with film so that the surface of the goods is covered with film to facilitate the storage of the food goods of this application.
[0028] Step 013: After the wrapping is completed, control the handling equipment 100 to transport the wrapped goods to the shelf 500 for storage, so as to complete the warehousing of the goods.
[0029] Specifically, the wrapping device 400 is equipped with a second communication device 402, which can communicate with the communication module 30 of the handling equipment 100. After the wrapping device 400 completes the wrapping of the goods, it sends the wrapping completion information to the handling equipment 100 (specifically, the communication module 30 of the handling equipment 100), so that the handling equipment 100 can promptly determine that the wrapping has been completed.
[0030] Please see Figure 4 Once the goods have been wrapped, the goods moving device 20 can promptly transport the wrapped goods to the shelf 500 for storage. The shelf 500 includes multiple storage positions 501, each of which can store goods. The warehousing task includes a target storage position 502, which is any one of the multiple storage positions 501 of the shelf 500. The goods moving device 20 can transport the wrapped goods to the target storage position 502 of the shelf 500 for storage, thereby completing the rapid warehousing of goods and improving warehousing efficiency.
[0031] Optionally, production line 200 may produce different types of goods, and warehouse 300 may include multiple shelves 500, each shelf 500 storing the same type of goods. When determining the target storage location 502 for an inbound task, the target inbound shelf 510 among the multiple shelves 500 can be determined according to the type of goods produced by production line 200. The goods stored in the target inbound shelf 510 are of the same type as the goods produced by production line 200, thereby realizing the classified storage of goods and facilitating the management of goods.
[0032] The cargo management method of this application allows for the loading of goods onto the production line 200 after the goods are stacked. The goods are then moved to the wrapping area of the wrapping device 400, where they are wrapped. Compared to the unevenness of manual wrapping, the wrapping is neater. Moreover, no manual intervention is required; the transportation and warehousing of the wrapped goods can be completed by the cargo moving device 20, thus ensuring the safety of the goods during transportation from the production line 200 to the shelf 500.
[0033] Please see Figure 5 In some embodiments, the cargo management method further includes:
[0034] Step 014: Upon receiving an outbound task, control the handling equipment 100 to move to the target storage location 502 of the shelf 500 to load and transport the goods in the target storage location 502 to the target location, thereby completing the outbound of the goods in the target storage location 502.
[0035] Specifically, warehouse 300 has outbound demand, such as when a manual outbound task is issued. The outbound task includes the type and quantity of goods to be outbound. Based on the type of goods to be outbound, the target outbound shelf 520 among the multiple shelves 500 in warehouse 300 can be determined. The type of goods stored in the target outbound shelf 520 is the same as the type of goods to be outbound.
[0036] Then, based on the quantity of goods required for outbound shipment, the target storage location 502 in the target outbound shelf 520 is determined. Each storage location 501 of the shelf 500 stores one unit of goods (e.g., the quantity of goods that the goods moving device 20 can transport at one time is one unit; specifically, if the goods moving device 20 can transport 27 boxes at one time, then one unit of goods is 27 boxes). For example, if the quantity of goods required for outbound shipment is 27, then there is one target storage location 502, thus determining one storage location 501 with stored goods in the target outbound shelf 520 as the target storage location 502; as another example, if the quantity of goods required for outbound shipment is 54, then there are two target storage locations 502, thus determining two storage locations 501 with stored goods in the target outbound shelf 520 as both target storage locations 502.
[0037] It is understood that the positions of shelf 500 and target storage location 502 within warehouse 300 are preset and can be determined after warehouse 300 is established. After determining the target storage location 502, the goods moving device 20 can be controlled to move according to the target storage location 502 in the outbound task, thereby loading and transporting the goods in the target storage location 502 to the target location, such as the preset outbound area in warehouse 300, thus completing the outbound of the goods in the target storage location 502.
[0038] Please see Figure 6 In some embodiments, the cargo management method further includes:
[0039] Step 015: If the inbound or outbound task is completed, update the inventory information of shelf 500.
[0040] Specifically, in order to facilitate inventory management in warehouse 300, it is necessary to update inventory information in real time and accurately. Therefore, after each inbound task is completed by the handling equipment 100, the inventory information of the target inbound shelf 510 can be updated according to the quantity of goods in the inbound task and the target storage location 502 of the target inbound shelf 510 where the goods are stored. For example, if the quantity of goods of type A stored in the target inbound shelf 510 is 10 units (i.e., the inventory information of the target inbound shelf 510 is 10 units of goods A), and the quantity of goods inbound is 1 unit, then the inventory information of the target inbound shelf 510 is updated to 11 units of goods A.
[0041] Similarly, after each outbound task is completed, the handling equipment 100 can update the inventory information of the target outbound shelf 520 based on the quantity of goods in the outbound task and the target storage location 502 of the target outbound shelf 520. For example, if the quantity of goods of type B stored in the target outbound shelf 520 is 200 units (i.e., the inventory information of the target outbound shelf 520 is 200 units of goods B), and the quantity of outbound goods is 2 units, then the inventory information of the target outbound shelf 520 will be updated to 198 units of goods B.
[0042] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the goods transported by the cargo moving device 20 of the handling equipment 100 are carried on a pallet 600. The pallet 600 has a plurality of positioning holes 601. The cargo moving device 20 also includes a fork 21. There are multiple forks 21, and each fork 21 corresponds to a positioning hole 601. Each fork 21 extends into the corresponding positioning hole 601 to load the goods transported by the cargo moving device 20.
[0043] Specifically, the pallet 600 has multiple positioning holes 601. The cargo moving device 20 can load the cargo to be transported by corresponding the forks 21 with the positioning holes 601 one by one (as in the embodiment of this application, there are two forks 21 and two positioning holes 601). Each fork 21 is inserted into the corresponding positioning hole 601 to load the cargo to be transported. This limits the position of the cargo to be transported relative to the cargo moving device 20 while loading the cargo to be transported, so that the cargo moving device 20 can stably transport the loaded cargo.
[0044] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, the handling equipment 100 further includes a detection device 40, which is used to collect distance information between the target storage location 502 of the shelf 500 and the detection device 40. Step 013: Transporting goods to the shelf 500 for storage to complete the warehousing of goods includes:
[0045] Step 0131: Determine the location information of the target storage bit 502 based on the distance information.
[0046] Step 0132: Control the cargo moving device 20 to adjust its own position according to the position information of the target storage position 502 so that the wrapped cargo is directly facing the target storage position 502, so as to store the wrapped cargo in the target storage position 502.
[0047] Specifically, the handling equipment 100 includes a detection device 40, a processor 50, and a cargo moving device 20. The handling equipment 100 can use the detection device 40 to collect distance information between the target storage location 502 and the detection device 40. That is, the detection device 40 can obtain the distance information between the target storage location 502 and the detection device 40 by detecting different positions of the target storage location 502 and the actual distance between the detection devices 40.
[0048] The processor 50 is used to determine the location information of the target storage location 502 on the shelf 500 based on the distance information. The location information of the detection device 40 itself can be directly obtained. For example, if the handling equipment 100 has a positioning device, it can obtain the location information of its preset position in real time. The relative positional relationship between the detection device 40 and the preset position is fixed after the handling equipment 100 leaves the factory. Therefore, the location information of the detection device 40 itself can be obtained through the location information of the preset position of the handling equipment 100 and the relative positional relationship between the detection device 40 and the preset position. After obtaining the location information of the detection device 40 itself, the location information of the target storage location 502 can be determined based on the distance information between the target storage location 502 and the detection device 40 (i.e., the relative position between the target storage location 502 and the detection device 40) and the location information of the detection device 40 itself.
[0049] Specifically, after the processor 50 obtains the location information of the target storage location 502, it adjusts the position of the cargo moving device 20 according to the location information of the target storage location 502 so that the wrapped cargo is aligned with the target storage location 502.
[0050] Furthermore, the cargo moving device 20 includes a fork 21 and a moving part 22. Both the moving part 22 and the fork 21 can move horizontally, and the fork 21 can be raised and lowered vertically (parallel to the Z-axis). When the handling equipment 100 determines the specific location information of the target storage location 502, it can obtain the preset height of the target storage location 502 from the transportation task. At this time, it is only necessary to adjust the horizontal position of the wrapped cargo and then adjust the height of the fork 21 according to the preset height so that the center of the wrapped cargo is aligned with the center of the target storage location 502. For example, a world coordinate system is established with a predetermined position on the ground as the origin. The world coordinate system includes an X-axis, a Y-axis, and a Z-axis. The X-axis is parallel to the row direction of the shelf 500, the Y-axis is perpendicular to the X-axis and parallel to the ground, and the Z-axis is perpendicular to the ground. When the handling equipment 100 places the wrapped goods into the target storage position 502, it first uses the detection device 40 to collect the distance information between the target storage position 502 and the detection device 40. Based on the distance information between the target storage position 502 and the detection device 40 and the position information (such as position coordinates) of the detection device 40, the horizontal coordinates of the center of the target storage position 502 are determined, such as (x1, y1). At this time, based on the coordinates of the center of the target storage position 502, the processor 50 sends a control command to the cargo moving device 20 to control the moving part 22 and / or the fork 21 to adjust their own position in the horizontal direction (i.e., the plane where the X and Y axes are located). Then, the processor 50 sends a control command to the cargo moving device 20 according to the preset height to control the fork 21 to adjust its own height, so that the center of the wrapped cargo and the center of the target storage position 502 are aligned, ensuring that the center of the wrapped cargo and the center of the target storage position 502 are directly opposite each other.
[0051] Alternatively, while using the detection device 40 to determine the horizontal position information of the target storage location 502, the handling equipment 100 can also determine the actual height of the target storage location 502 to prevent errors in the preset height of the target storage location 502 given in the transportation task. Taking the detection device 40 as being located at the root of the fork 21 and below the fork 21 as an example, the handling equipment 100 can adjust the height of the fork 21 according to the preset height of the target storage location 502 (e.g., adjust the fork 21 to a height higher than the preset height) so that the target storage location 502 is within the field of view of the detection device 40. Then, the handling equipment 100 uses the detection device 40 to collect the distance information between the target storage location 502 and the detection device 40, and combines it with the position information of the detection device 40 to determine the three-dimensional coordinates (x2, y2, z2) of the center position information of the target storage location 502. At this time, the processor 50 will send control commands to the cargo moving device 20 according to x2 and y2 to control the moving part 22 and / or the fork 21 to adjust their own position in the horizontal direction, and send control commands to the cargo moving device 20 according to z2 to control the fork 21 to adjust its own height, so as to achieve alignment between the center of the wrapped cargo and the center of the target storage position 502.
[0052] Thus, by using the detection device 40 to collect the distance information between the target storage position 502 and the detection device 40, the position information of the target storage position 502 is obtained. Then, based on the position information of the target storage position 502, the goods wrapped in film are precisely aligned with the target storage position 502, thereby ensuring that the goods wrapped in film can be safely placed in the target storage position 502.
[0053] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, after the wrapped goods loaded by the goods moving device 20 are aligned with the target storage position 502, the goods moving device 20 can be controlled to move toward the target storage position 502 so that the wrapped goods loaded by the goods moving device 20 are moved into the target storage position 502.
[0054] Specifically, after the detection device 40 has collected the distance information between the target storage location 502 and the detection device 40, and the center of the wrapped goods is aligned with the center of the target storage location 502, the processor 50 can send a control command to the goods moving device 20 based on the distance information between the target storage location 502 and the detection device 40, so as to control the goods moving device 20 to move towards the target storage location 502, so that the wrapped goods are moved directly into the target storage location 502, thus completing the storage of the wrapped goods in the target storage location 502. For example, by combining the distance information between the target storage location 502 and the detection device 40, and the position information of the detection device 40, the coordinates of the center of the target storage location 502, such as (x3, y3), can be obtained. At this time, the processor 50 can obtain the horizontal position information of the target storage location 502 based on x3 and y3, and send a control command to the cargo moving device 20 to control the cargo moving device 20 to adjust its own horizontal position. Then, according to the preset height of the target storage location 502 obtained in the transportation task, the height of the fork 21 is adjusted so that the center of the wrapped cargo is directly opposite the center of the target storage location 502. After adjusting the position of the wrapped cargo so that the center of the wrapped cargo is directly opposite the center of the target storage location 502, the processor 50 can send a control command to the cargo moving device 20 to control the cargo moving device 20 to move towards the target storage location 502, so that the wrapped cargo can be accurately stored in the target storage location 502.
[0055] To facilitate better implementation of the cargo management method according to the embodiments of this application, this application also provides a cargo management device 10. Please refer to... Figure 2 and Figure 9 The cargo management device 10 may include:
