[0058] The present invention will be further explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. Detailed Implementation
[0059] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0060] The terms "first," "second," etc., used in the specification and claims of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and not to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such use of data can be interchanged where appropriate so that embodiments of this application can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein, and the objects distinguished by "first," "second," etc., are generally of the same class and the number of objects is not limited; for example, a first object can be one or more. Furthermore, in the specification and claims, "and / or" indicates at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / " generally indicates that the preceding and following objects are in an "or" relationship.
[0061] The following detailed description of the goods sorting method provided in this application, with reference to the accompanying drawings, through specific embodiments and application scenarios, will illustrate this method in detail.
[0062] This application provides a method for sorting goods. Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a goods sorting method based on a sorting seeding wall in one embodiment. Figure 1 As shown, a product sorting method based on a sorting seed wall includes the following steps:
[0063] Step S101: Assign storage boxes to the sorting and seeding wall according to the order list.
[0064] It's important to note that the order list refers to a collection of orders, including multiple orders. The sorting and distribution wall can allocate storage boxes to orders according to certain rules. For example, it can assign the storage box with the smallest number to the earliest generated order based on the order in which the orders were generated. It can also randomly assign storage boxes on the sorting and distribution wall to different orders.
[0065] Step S102: Obtain the product information of the target product.
[0066] Specifically, you can obtain product information by scanning the QR code on the product. This information allows you to check the current inventory quantity of the product or to see if the corresponding item exists in the orders linked to the sorting and distribution wall.
[0067] Step S103: Match the target storage box corresponding to the target product based on the order information and product information of the order.
[0068] Each order contains information about the items that need to be replenished, as well as the quantity of each item to be replenished. Based on the item information, orders requiring that item can be matched, and then the target storage boxes are determined based on the storage boxes previously matched to those orders. Since there may be multiple orders matched with the item information, there may also be multiple target storage boxes. Typically, the number of target storage boxes matches the number of matched orders.
[0069] Step S104: Obtain the sorting storage box area. If the sorting storage box area is inconsistent with the target storage box area, an alarm will be triggered.
[0070] Furthermore, the sorting storage area can be confirmed by capturing sorting actions and the movement of the storage boxes. Sorting actions include placement and throwing. When the LiDAR detects a sorting action or movement in the storage area corresponding to a storage box, it is determined that the storage area of that storage box is the sorting storage area. This sorting storage area is compared with the storage area of the target storage box. If the sorting storage area matches the target storage box area, the target item is assumed to have been sorted into the target storage box. If the sorting storage area does not match the target storage box area, there is a problem with the storage box used for sorting the target item, or there is a possibility of a false trigger.
[0071] Step S105: Receive the pickup instruction corresponding to the first target storage box and prompt the first target storage box; the first target storage box is any one of the target storage boxes.
[0072] Specifically, the first target storage box is usually the one that has just been restocked. The first target storage box can be indicated using voice prompts or flashing lights.
[0073] Step S106: Obtain the retrieval storage area; if the retrieval storage area is inconsistent with the storage area of the first target storage area, an alarm will be triggered.
[0074] Furthermore, the pickup storage area can be confirmed by capturing pickup actions and storage box movement. When the sensor detects a pickup action or storage box movement in the storage area corresponding to a particular storage box, that storage area is determined to be the pickup storage area. This pickup storage area is then compared with the target storage box's storage area. If they match, it's assumed the goods for the order corresponding to the target storage box have already been picked up. If they don't match, a problem has occurred or a false trigger has occurred during the pickup process.
[0075] This invention obtains the corresponding storage box area by matching an order with a storage box. Then, it locates the target storage box area based on the target goods. By acquiring the storage box areas triggered during sorting and retrieval, it obtains the sorting storage box area and the retrieval storage box area. The sorting storage box area, the retrieval storage box area, and the target storage box area are compared. If they do not match, an alarm is triggered. This alarm alerts staff to any abnormalities during sorting and retrieval, thereby reducing the error rate of the sorting system.
[0076] In one feasible embodiment, before obtaining the sorting storage box area and triggering an alarm if the sorting storage box area does not match the storage box area of the target storage box, the following steps are included:
[0077] Based on the parameter information of the storage boxes, the picking and replenishment operation surfaces of the sorting and seeding wall are divided into multiple different storage box areas.
[0078] Specifically, the width of the storage box area can be determined based on the basic data of the storage box. The storage boxes within the sorting and seeding wall are divided into different rows and columns to facilitate sorting and retrieval operations.
[0079] In one feasible embodiment, before receiving the pickup instruction corresponding to the first target storage box and prompting the first target storage box, the process includes:
[0080] Received a replenishment instruction.
[0081] It should be noted that replenishment instructions can be issued by triggering relevant devices, such as electronic tags that match the storage boxes, or smart touch screens installed on the sorting and seeding wall.
[0082] Based on the product information, locate the quantity of the target product to be replenished in the order information corresponding to the first target storage box.
[0083] Further, obtain the identifier or code of the first target storage box. Based on this identifier or code, find the corresponding order in the order information. Locate the target item information in the order, including item name, quantity, etc. Obtain the quantity to be replenished from the target item information. If the order information is structured, the quantity to be replenished can be obtained by querying a database or using a programming language for data retrieval and processing.
[0084] Reduce the quantity to be replenished by one and save it.
[0085] The system determines whether the order information matches the quantity to be replenished and whether the order has been replenished. If the order has been replenished, a pickup instruction is issued.
[0086] Specifically, deducting the quantity to be replenished allows us to determine whether the current order has been fully replenished for that item. When the quantity to be replenished for all target items in an order is zero, it means the current order has been fully replenished. At this point, a pickup order can be issued based on personnel allocation and order delivery status. The pickup order allows control over various information such as pickup time, pickup requirements, and personnel allocation, thereby improving pickup efficiency and further enhancing warehouse sorting efficiency.
[0087] In one feasible embodiment, determining whether an order for a given order information pair has been replenished based on the quantity to be replenished includes:
[0088] Determine if the quantity of all target items to be replenished in the order information is zero.
[0089] Specifically, the order must contain at least one type of target goods that need to be replenished.
[0090] If the quantity to be replenished is zero, the order replenishment is complete.
[0091] It should be noted that when a target product is temporarily out of stock, it can be set to a replenishment quantity of zero according to order requirements to ensure order timeliness. Simultaneously, a strong correlation index is created between the replenishment quantity and the order's unique identifier to improve the efficiency of replenishment quantity queries, thereby enhancing order processing efficiency.
[0092] In one feasible embodiment, the target storage box is associated one-to-one with a group of electronic tags.
[0093] Specifically, an electronic tag set can include two electronic tags: one placed on the replenishment operation surface and the other on the pickup operation surface. Different electronic tags can be selected depending on the needs of the scenario, such as a single-light electronic tag.
[0094] Obtain the pickup storage area. If the pickup storage area does not match the storage area of the first target storage area, trigger an alarm, including:
[0095] A pickup instruction is generated based on the storage area of the first target storage box and the corresponding electronic tag group.
[0096] Furthermore, the pickup instruction also includes the order information corresponding to the first target storage box, which is used for verification during pickup to prevent any omissions in the order.
[0097] Based on the pickup instruction, the electronic tags on the pickup operation surface of the electronic tag group are controlled to light up to indicate the pickup status.
[0098] The electronic tags on the pickup control panel illuminate to help staff quickly locate the first target storage box for pickup.
[0099] The system uses LiDAR to detect the pickup action and locate the pickup storage area.
[0100] The system detects the picking action using LiDAR and obtains the corresponding storage box area based on the LiDAR detection results. This storage box area is then used as the picking storage box area.
[0101] Determine whether the storage area for retrieving goods is consistent with the storage area of the first target storage area.
[0102] Specifically, it can be determined whether the pickup storage area is within the storage area of the first target storage area, or whether the identification (or code) of the pickup storage area is consistent with the identification (or code) of the storage area of the first target storage area.
[0103] An alarm will be triggered if the storage area for retrieving goods does not match the storage area of the first target storage area.
[0104] Specifically, alarms can be sent to relevant personnel via email, SMS, instant messaging tools, etc., reminding them to handle inconsistencies. They can also use audible or flashing lights to attract attention and alert relevant personnel. If a dedicated alarm system is in place, the alarm signal can be sent to that system to trigger the actual alarm handling process.
[0105] In one feasible embodiment, after issuing an alarm if the retrieval storage area does not match the storage area of the first target storage area, the method further includes:
[0106] Issue a pickup instruction, update the order status to "completed", and display the order status.
[0107] Specifically, obtain the unique identifier or number of the order to accurately locate the order that needs updating. Update the order status to "completed". The value of the corresponding field can be modified in the order database or other data storage system to update the order status to "completed". Retrieve the updated order status. Display the updated order status to relevant personnel.
[0108] The system uses a lidar to rescan the storage area of the first target storage box to check for storage boxes. If a storage box is detected in the first target storage box area, the status of the storage area of the first target storage box is updated.
[0109] Furthermore, a LiDAR device is used to scan the storage area of the first target storage box to obtain the scan results. The scan results are analyzed to determine whether a storage box exists in the storage area of the target storage box. If the scan results confirm the existence of a storage box: the status of the storage area of the first target storage box is updated to "Available Storage Box". If the scan results confirm that no storage box exists, the status of the storage area of the first target storage box is updated to "Storage Box to be Added".
[0110] In one feasible embodiment, prior to allocating storage boxes on the sorting and seeding wall according to the order list, the process includes:
[0111] Generate wave numbers based on all order information from the sorting and seeding wall, and retrieve the target product information corresponding to each wave number.
[0112] Specifically, the target goods within a wave number can be allocated according to the complete contents of all orders. For example, the current sorting and distribution wall has four orders: A, B, C, and D. Order A requires 20 units of target item a, 30 units of target item b, 40 units of target item c, and 50 units of target item d. Order B requires 20 units of target item a, 30 units of target item b, 40 units of target item c, and 50 units of target item e. Order C requires 20 units of target item f, 30 units of target item b, 40 units of target item c, and 50 units of target item e. Order D requires 10 units of target item a, 20 units of target item b, 20 units of target item c, and 50 units of target item g. If the allocation is based on all the contents of all orders, then the current wave number needs to prepare all the goods for orders A, B, C, and D, which is 50 target goods a, 110 target goods b, 140 target goods c, 50 target goods d, 100 target goods e, and 50 target goods g. If there are too many target goods to fit in one wave, then the current wave can include only some orders, such as only orders A, B, and C. In this case, the current wave number only needs to prepare all the goods for orders A, B, and C, which is 20 target goods a, 90 target goods b, 120 target goods c, and 100 target goods e.
[0113] Wave numbers can also be assigned according to the target product type of all orders. For example, for the previous four orders, assuming that the first batch includes product a and product b, the current wave number will only include 50 target products a and 110 target products b, and will include four orders: A, B, C, and D.
[0114] Get the wave number and synchronize the order list based on the wave number.
[0115] Specifically, a list of orders that need to be restocked is generated based on the wave number.
[0116] The order list displays the quantity of the target items to be replenished for each order.
[0117] The sorting and seeding wall can include: an electronic tag controller, a sorting wall control system, and electronic tags. The three are connected via wireless or wired communication. When the operator brings in the product of the current wave number, such as target product 'a', they scan the current wave number, and the display screen shows the quantity of the product to be seeded.
[0118] In one feasible embodiment, it further includes:
[0119] Determine whether the order needs to be replenished with the target goods based on the product information and order information;
[0120] If an order requires replenishment of the target product, the inventory quantity of the corresponding target product information in the wave number will be reduced by one.
[0121] Specifically, scan the goods according to the order details. Scan the target item 'a' against the scanner on the smart touch screen. If the scan is successful, the quantity of the target item 'a' displayed on the screen will automatically decrease by 1.
[0122] Remind users to replenish the target storage boxes for the items listed on their orders.
[0123] It should be noted that the reminder for the target storage box can be sent when it is confirmed that the order needs to be replenished with the target item. This can be done simultaneously with the "decreasing the inventory quantity of the corresponding target item in the wave number" action.
[0124] In one feasible embodiment, if target item a in the current wave number needs to be replenished with 50 units, the system will match the order information and automatically allocate the quantity. For example, if order A needs to replenish target item a with 10 units, order B needs to replenish target item a with 15 units, and order C needs to replenish target item a with 25 units, the electronic tag bar below the storage box corresponding to order A will light up, displaying the quantity 10, and the operator will perform the warehousing operation.
[0125] Next, scan the goods according to the order details. Scan item A with the scanner on the smart touch screen. If the scan is successful, the quantity of the target item A on the display screen will automatically decrease by 1. At the same time, the quantity of the electronic tag below the storage box for order A will automatically decrease by 1 from 10. Then, put the target item A into the storage box. After scanning and putting all 10 items into the storage box, press the button on the electronic tag corresponding to the storage box to complete the replenishment.
[0126] The electronic tag below the storage box for the next B order lights up, showing a quantity of 15. Repeat this process until all 50 target items for this wave are replenished.
[0127] The next batch of goods (item B) will be received. Once all the items in the corresponding storage box have been replenished, the electronic tag bar on the outbound direction (back) will light up, indicating that the items for that storage box are ready. The button light will turn off, and the item can be picked up and packed. The system will then display that the order is complete and send the information to the monitor for simultaneous display.
[0128] In one feasible embodiment, the target product 'a' in the current wave number needs to be planted 50 units. At the same time, the system matches the order information and automatically allocates the quantity. For example, order A needs to replenish 10 units of target product 'a', order B needs to replenish 15 units of target product 'a', and order C needs to replenish 25 units of target product 'a'. At this time, the electronic tag bar below the storage box corresponding to orders A, B, and C all lights up, showing the quantity that needs to be replenished for each order, and the operator performs the warehousing operation.
[0129] Next, scan the goods according to the order details. Scan the target item 'a' against the scanner. If the scan is successful, the quantity displayed on the screen corresponding to the target item 'a' will automatically decrease by 1. Then, place the target item 'a' into the storage box. After placing one target item 'a', press the corresponding electronic tag button in the storage box. At the same time, the quantity in the electronic tag bar below the storage box for order A will automatically decrease by 1 from 10, completing the replenishment of one target item 'a' in order A.
[0130] Continue scanning the next target item 'a'. The electronic tag bars below the storage boxes for orders A, B, and C will all light up. At this point, the electronic tag bar for the storage box corresponding to order A shows a replenishment quantity of 9, the electronic tag bar for the storage box corresponding to order B shows a replenishment quantity of 15, and the electronic tag bar for the storage box corresponding to order C shows a replenishment quantity of 25. Repeat this process until all 50 target items 'a' in this wave have been stocked.
[0131] In one feasible embodiment, prior to allocating storage boxes on the sorting and seeding wall according to the order list, the method further includes...
[0132] Obtain personnel information.
[0133] Specifically, biometric data collection devices can be used to collect personnel information. For example, smart touchscreens can be used to obtain facial recognition, ID card data, fingerprints, or usernames and passwords.
[0134] Determine whether someone can log in to the system based on their personal information.
[0135] If the person can log in to the system, they can view the order information.
[0136] Specifically, after a customer places an order, the server receives the order information, automatically generates multiple orders, and sends them to the distribution wall control system. Operators can log in to the system to view the order information. There may be multiple orders such as A, B, C, D, etc. Each order includes multiple goods such as a, b, c, and d. Each storage box and electronic tag on the rack corresponds to one order.
[0137] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the sorting and seeding wall replenishment surface in one embodiment. For example... Figure 2 As shown, the replenishment surface of the sorting and seeding wall is equipped with electronic tags, storage boxes, smart touch screens, and lidar.
[0138] The facial recognition system on the smart touch screen is used to obtain the facial information of the personnel. After logging into the system based on the facial information, the order information on the current sorting and planting wall can be viewed.
[0139] Then, the scanner on the smart touch screen scans the wave number, synchronizes the order list based on the wave number, and controls all the electronic tags below the target storage box to light up, displaying the quantity of goods that need to be replenished for each order.
[0140] Next, scan the goods according to the order details displayed on the smart touch screen. Scan the target item A with the scanner on the smart touch screen. After the scan is successful, the quantity displayed on the smart touch screen corresponding to the target item A will automatically decrease by 1. Then, place the target item into the target storage box.
[0141] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the storage area and sorting storage area of the target storage box in one embodiment, where the glove symbol represents the sorting storage area and the bright part represents the storage area of the target storage box. Figure 3 As shown, assuming there is only one order requiring replenishment of target item 'a', after scanning target item 'a' using the smart touchscreen, the sorting and storage area is detected using LiDAR. When the sorting and storage area overlaps with the storage area of the target storage box, it means the target item has been delivered to the target storage box. When the sorting and storage area does not overlap with the storage area of the target storage box, it means the target item has not been delivered to the target storage box, and an alarm should be triggered.
[0142] After detecting the sorting and storage area of a product using LiDAR, it is determined whether this sorting and storage area is consistent with the storage area of the target storage area. If they are inconsistent, an alarm is triggered via the speaker and electronic tag on the smart touch screen.
[0143] Then, take a picture of the electronic tag button corresponding to the target storage box. At the same time, the number of electronic tags below the corresponding storage box will automatically decrease by 1, completing the replenishment of one item in the order corresponding to that storage box.
[0144] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the back structure of the sorting and seeding wall in one embodiment. The back side is the surface where goods are picked up. Figure 4 As shown, the back features a smart touchscreen, LiDAR, single-lamp electronic tags, and storage compartments. The combination of LiDAR and single-lamp electronic tags can be used to confirm outbound shipments, update storage compartment areas, indicate which storage compartment is awaiting pickup, and verify the correctness of the pickup.
[0145] After detecting the pickup storage area of a pickup action using LiDAR, it is determined whether the pickup storage area is consistent with the target storage area. If they are inconsistent, an alarm is triggered via the speaker and single-light electronic tag on the smart touch screen.
[0146] This application also provides a goods sorting system based on a sorting seed wall. Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of a goods sorting system based on a sorting seeding wall in one embodiment. Figure 5 As shown, the goods sorting system based on the sorting seeding wall includes an information management module and an alert module.
[0147] The information management module is used to allocate storage boxes on the sorting and distribution wall based on the order list. It retrieves the product information of the target goods. It matches the target storage box corresponding to the target goods based on the order information and product information. Finally, it retrieves the sorting and distribution box area.
[0148] The alert module is used to issue an alarm if the sorting storage area does not match the target storage area.
[0149] The information management module is also used to receive the pickup instruction corresponding to the first target storage box and prompt the first target storage box. The first target storage box can be any one of the target storage boxes. The module retrieves the pickup storage box area.
[0150] The reminder module is also used to issue an alarm if the storage area of the retrieval storage box is inconsistent with the storage area of the first target storage box.
[0151] The aforementioned goods sorting system first allocates storage boxes on the sorting wall based on the order list, then obtains the product information of the target product, and then matches the target storage box corresponding to the target product based on the order information and product information. Finally, it obtains the sorting storage box area.
[0152] After obtaining the sorting storage area, it is determined whether the sorting storage area matches the target storage area. If the sorting storage area does not match the target storage area, an alarm is triggered via the alert module.
[0153] Then, the system receives the pickup instruction corresponding to the first target storage box through the information management module and prompts the first target storage box. The first target storage box can be any one of the target storage boxes.
[0154] The information management module is then used to obtain the retrieval storage area. If the retrieval storage area does not match the storage area of the first target storage area, an alarm is triggered using the alert module.
