Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of intelligent warehousing sorting, and in particular to an intelligent warehousing matching sorting method, device and medium based on multiple sorting modes. Background Art
[0002] The development of clothing matching sorting technology aims to improve the efficiency of the clothing manufacturing and logistics industries, reduce labor costs through automated sorting lines, and also pay more attention to environmental protection and sustainability. Automated sorting lines usually include components such as long-distance chain conveyor lines, pitch subdivision and pitch counting positioning sensor systems. These systems can achieve efficient transmission of clothing, and through sensor positioning and counting, ensure that each piece of clothing can be accurately delivered to the predetermined location. Among them, the hanging system is a way of hanging clothes for sorting, which is particularly suitable for situations where clothes need to be kept flat. The intelligent hanging system can improve the efficiency of sorting and storage, reduce labor costs and ensure the quality of clothing.
[0003] The current clothing sorting technology is experiencing rapid development, and a variety of technical means are being used in actual production, which has improved sorting efficiency, reduced error rates, and promoted the green transformation of the industry. However, there are still some shortcomings. For example, one assembly line can only process orders with one sorting requirement. When faced with multiple orders with multiple sorting requirements, they can only be processed one by one. This undoubtedly increases the pressure on warehousing for mass-produced products, and the sorting efficiency is also greatly affected. Summary of the invention
[0004] In order to solve the shortcomings of the existing intelligent warehousing sorting process for multiple sorting requirements and multiple orders, the present invention proposes an intelligent warehousing matching sorting method based on multiple sorting modes, wherein each sorting mode contains an independent first guide rail and a second guide rail. When the pre-stored ring rail receives various material groups after preliminary sorting, the material is introduced into the guide rail under the corresponding sorting mode according to the sorting requirement information of the material. The sorting method is specifically as follows:
[0005] In the first sorting mode, the second guide rail is provided with a number of entry / exit nodes of the paired sub-tracks and the screening ring track. According to user needs, the materials that need secondary sorting are sorted in the screening ring track according to user needs, and after the secondary sorting of each screening ring track is completed, the materials are discharged to the cache ring track according to the corresponding required quantity together with the various materials in the first guide rail and each paired sub-track;
[0006] In the second sorting mode, a plurality of paired sub-track entry / exit nodes are provided on the first guide rail and / or the second guide rail. According to user needs, various types of materials in the first guide rail, the second guide rail and each paired sub-track are discharged to the buffer ring track according to the corresponding required quantity;
[0007] In the third sorting mode, the first guide rail is provided with a plurality of entry / exit nodes of paired sub-rails, and the second guide rail is provided with an entry / exit node of a screening ring rail. According to user needs, the materials that need secondary sorting are sorted in the screening ring rail according to user needs, and after the secondary sorting of each screening ring rail is completed, the materials are discharged to the cache ring rail according to the corresponding required quantity together with the various materials in the first guide rail and each paired sub-rail;
[0008] When the set of materials that have completed the preliminary matching sorting are cached through the cache ring track and discharged to the order confirmation ring track, secondary reordering is carried out under matching sorting verification.
[0009] Furthermore, secondary classification and sorting of materials is performed based on the classification information to meet user needs.
[0010] Furthermore, the classification information and sorting requirement information are obtained by reading from an information carrier.
[0011] Furthermore, the material discharge quantity is regulated by setting a control valve at the derailment node.
[0012] Furthermore, when a set of materials discharged to the buffer ring track by any sorting mode is interrupted by materials discharged by other sorting modes, a second re-sorting is performed through the order confirmation ring track.
[0013] The present invention also includes a computer-readable storage medium on which a computer program is stored, and when the program is executed by a processor, the steps of the matching sorting method are implemented.
[0014] Also included is a device for processing data, comprising:
[0015] a memory having a computer program stored thereon;
[0016] A processor is used to execute the computer program in the memory to implement the steps of the matching sorting method.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0018] The intelligent warehousing matching sorting method, device and medium based on multiple sorting modes described in the present invention can import orders with different sorting requirements into corresponding sorting guide rails as needed by reading sorting demand information, so that the production line can process standard orders and customized orders at the same time. At the same time, through the matching sorting check of the order confirmation ring rail, the material queue interruption that may occur in the cache ring rail is re-sorted for a second time, so as to ensure that the materials can be exported in a matching sorting manner. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0019] Figure 1The schematic diagram of the guide rail of an intelligent warehousing supporting sorting method based on multiple sorting modes. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0020] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention and the accompanying drawings to further describe the technical solution of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.
[0021] When the factory receives an order from a user, it will produce various types of supporting products on different production lines according to the order requirements. In order to ship out the products produced by different production lines in a matching manner, it is necessary to obtain the classification information of these products and the corresponding supporting demand information. In order to meet the needs of subsequent automated matching sorting, this information is usually entered into the carrier on which the product is mounted (such as a QR code, barcode, NFC, etc.). On this basis, in order to further improve the efficiency of material matching sorting and to meet the needs of simultaneous processing of customized and standard orders, the present invention proposes an intelligent warehousing matching sorting method based on multiple sorting modes. In this method, three sorting modes are provided, namely a first sorting mode, a second sorting mode, and a third sorting mode to meet different order requirements. Each sorting mode has its own independent first guide rail and second guide rail. In order to meet the different order requirements of users at the same time, the guide rails under different sorting modes are paired and / or screening ring rails are installed. Specifically, Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment is explained by taking the matching sorting of complete suits (including suit A, trousers B and customizable shirts C, different colors are distinguished by different digital codes) as an example. Each suit includes a suit and a trousers of the same color and size, and a single / multiple shirts of the same color and size in standardized mode, or a single / multiple shirts of the same color and size in customized mode according to the order requirements.
[0022] When the clothes have completed preliminary classification and screening through the front preliminary sorting device, and obtained groups of suits and trousers of the same color and code under a single category, as well as shirts with the same code but different colors, the pre-stored circular track receives each type of material group one by one (each group only contains suits and trousers of a single color and a single code, or shirts with a single code but different colors), and imports each material group into the guide rail under the corresponding sorting mode by reading the sorting demand information on the mounted material carrier.
[0023] Among them, if a batch of standard suits is needed according to the user's order requirements, the pre-stored ring track will import the suits and trousers of the same color and size corresponding to the requirements into the first track and the second track in the second sorting mode after reading the corresponding classification requirement information, and after receiving the shirts of the same code but different colors on the pre-stored ring track, according to the sorting requirement information, material classification information and the shirt color of the suits and trousers of the same color and size that have been selected and corresponding to the user's requirements, the shirts of the corresponding colors are selected and put on the matching track on the second track of the second sorting mode. Then, according to the quantity of the user's order requirements, the single suits and trousers of the same color and size, and the single / multiple shirts of the same color and size can be exported to the cache ring track.
[0024] If a batch of customized suits are needed according to the user's order requirements, the pre-stored track will import the suits and trousers of the same color and size that meet the requirements into the paired tracks on the first and second tracks in the first sorting mode after reading the corresponding classification requirement information. After the pre-stored track receives the shirts of the same code but different colors, it will import the shirts that need secondary sorting into the screening track on the second track in the first sorting mode according to the sorting requirement information. In the screening track, according to the requirements of the current customized order, by reading the material classification information, single / multiple shirts of the target color are screened out and exported to the second track. At the same time, the paired tracks on the first and second tracks each export a suit and trousers, and export them to the cache track together with the shirts exported by the screening track.
[0025] Furthermore, in order to cope with the demand for a large number of customized orders, the present invention also adopts a third sorting mode. Compared with the first sorting mode, the third sorting mode only has a screening ring rail with a longer ring diameter on the second guide rail to receive more sorting needs of shirts of the same size but different colors brought about by a large number of customized orders, while two matching rails are provided on the first guide rail to respectively receive suits and trousers of the same color and size.
[0026] It should be noted that in order to ensure the synchronization of material export from the paired sub-tracks, the first guide rail and the second guide rail, and to reduce the problem of disordered sorting in the cache ring track caused by inconsistent export timing, control valves are provided at the ends of these tracks to control the export of materials.
[0027] Taking into account that each sorting mode is ultimately exported to the cache ring track, there may be export queue jumping, resulting in the situation that the final discharged materials are not a complete set. Therefore, the present invention further adds an order confirmation ring track after the cache ring track, in which the materials are subjected to secondary matching sorting and verification, and only the materials belonging to the same matching requirement are sequentially exported, while the export processing is skipped for the materials without matching requirements, thereby ensuring that the materials excluded from the order confirmation ring track are all exported as matching sets.
[0028] The present invention also includes a computer-readable storage medium on which a computer program is stored, and when the program is executed by a processor, the steps of the matching sorting method are implemented.
[0029] Also included is a device for processing data, comprising:
[0030] a memory having a computer program stored thereon;
[0031] A processor is used to execute the computer program in the memory to implement the steps of the matching sorting method.
[0032] In summary, the intelligent warehousing matching sorting method, device and medium based on multiple sorting modes described in the present invention can import orders with different sorting requirements into corresponding sorting rails as needed by reading sorting demand information, so that the production line can process standard orders and customized orders at the same time. At the same time, through the matching sorting check of the order confirmation ring rail, the material queue interruption that may occur in the cache ring rail is re-sorted for a second time, so as to ensure that the materials can be exported in a matching sorting manner.
[0033] It should be noted that all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in the embodiments of the present invention are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.
[0034] In addition, in the present invention, descriptions such as "first", "second", "one", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In the description of the present invention, the meaning of "plurality" is at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.
[0035] In the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "connection", "fixation", etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "fixation" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise clearly defined. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0036] In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the fact that ordinary technicians in the field can implement it. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present invention.
