Method, apparatus and storage medium for assigning a transport task

By acquiring the transportation information and physical path topology model of AGVs, candidate handling tasks can be identified and connected to AGVs in transit. This solves the problem of low AGV transportation efficiency and enables efficient allocation of AGVs to directly proceed to the starting point of the next task after completing the current task, thereby improving the overall transportation and handling efficiency.

AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In existing technologies, when the number of handling tasks exceeds the number of AGVs, the overall transportation efficiency of AGVs is low. Using only idle AGVs as docking AGVs leads to unreasonable allocation of handling tasks, resulting in low overall transportation efficiency of AGVs.

Method used

By acquiring the transportation information and physical path topology model of multiple AGVs in transit, the docking AGVs corresponding to candidate handling tasks are determined, so that each AGV in transit can go directly to the starting point of the next task after completing the current task. An AGV in-transit transportation model is constructed and sorted to determine the optimal allocation scheme.

Benefits of technology

It improves the overall transportation efficiency and handling efficiency of AGVs, avoids situations where AGVs need to return to a specific location to wait for the next task, saves allocation time, and improves the handling efficiency of AGVs.

Abstract

The application belongs to the technical field of automatic guided vehicles (AGVs), and particularly relates to a carrying task allocation method, device, equipment and storage medium. The method comprises the following steps: acquiring transportation information of a plurality of in-transit AGVs, the transportation information being used to indicate parameter information of a carrying task currently executed by each in-transit AGV and a position currently located by each in-transit AGV; determining, according to the transportation information and a physical path topology model, a plurality of candidate carrying tasks respectively corresponding to docking in-transit AGVs, wherein the physical path topology model is constructed according to parameter information of a plurality of carrying tasks of the same batch, and start positions of the plurality of candidate carrying tasks are different; and allocating the plurality of candidate carrying tasks to the corresponding docking in-transit AGVs respectively, so that the in-transit AGV currently executing a carrying task immediately goes to a start position of a next carrying task after completing execution of the current carrying task and executes the corresponding carrying task. The method improves the overall transportation efficiency of the AGV and also improves the carrying efficiency of the carrying task.
