[0002] In recent years, with the rapid development of the logistics warehousing industry, lean warehousing has put forward higher requirements for automation, digitization and intelligence. In order to reduce operating costs, intensive warehousing has emerged and been widely used. It has the characteristics of small floor area, large operation scale, many types of equipment, many numbers of equipment and task parallelism, etc. However, this also brings new challenges to the optimization and scheduling of automated warehousing operations. In the traditional task scheduling process of a warehousing system, based on a pre-programmed program, the equipment involved in the current task in the warehousing system is scheduled. If the task line is changed, the scheduling programs of the equipment involved in the changed task line need to be rewritten again, wasting labor costs and reducing the scheduling efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0059] An embodiment of the present invention provides a method, device, equipment and storage medium for scheduling and controlling a warehousing system. The method includes receiving a task scheduling instruction carrying a template identifier, where the task scheduling instruction is used to schedule a target device in the warehousing system to execute a corresponding device instruction. Each target device corresponds to at least one device instruction, and each device instruction corresponds to an execution step; in response to the task scheduling instruction, check whether there is a matching task template in the task template database that matches the template identifier; when there is no matching task template in the task template database that matches the template identifier, obtain a substitute task template, where the substitute task template includes at least one device marker, and one device marker is used to identify one target device; based on the device instruction, the task execution steps in the substitute task template, and the task instructions corresponding to the task execution steps, update the substitute task template to obtain a target task template, where the target task template includes target execution steps; based on the target execution steps, sequentially schedule the target devices to execute the corresponding target instructions. The technical solution of the present application only needs to call the corresponding template or update the substitute task template based on the instruction when the task execution logic changes, without having to rewrite the program code, saving human resources and improving the calling efficiency.

[0060] The terms "first", "second", "third", "fourth", etc. (if any) in the specification, claims and drawings of the present invention are used to distinguish similar objects and do not necessarily describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged under appropriate circumstances so that the embodiments described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein. In addition, the terms "include" or "have" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. For example, a process, method, system, product or equipment that includes a series of steps or units does not necessarily have to be limited to those steps or units clearly listed, but may include other steps or units not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or equipment.

[0061] Specifically, Figure 1 is a flowchart of a method for scheduling and controlling a warehousing system of the present application. Specifically, the scheduling of the warehousing system of the present application is based on the scheduling and execution of a central controller in the control system. Refer to Figure 1 , the steps of the method for scheduling and controlling a warehousing system include:

[0062] S100. Receive a task scheduling request.

[0063] Specifically, the task scheduling request is used to request scheduling a target device in the warehousing system to execute a corresponding device instruction. Each target device corresponds to at least one device instruction, each device instruction corresponds to an execution step, and the task scheduling request includes a template identifier.

[0064] Specifically, the central controller receives a task scheduling request, which can be triggered by a user pressing a target button. Here, the target button can be a target trigger area on the display screen of the control system or a physical trigger button on the control system.

[0065] S102. In response to the task scheduling request, check whether there is a matching task template in the task template database that matches the template identifier.

[0066] S104. When there is no matching task template in the task template database that matches the template identifier, obtain a substitute task template.

[0067] Among them, the task template database stores multiple task templates. Each task template can include, but is not limited to, fields such as "template number", "total number of schedules", "scheduling execution steps", "device label", "device instruction", etc. In one example, these fields are arranged horizontally in the task template. As shown in Table 1.

[0068] Table 1

[0069]

[0070] Furthermore, when the total number of schedules of the same task template is greater than 1, based on the total number of schedules, fill in the vertical information of the task template, and there is a one-to-one correspondence between each schedule number and the scheduling execution steps, device label, and device instruction. Specifically, as shown in Table 2.

[0071] Table 2

[0072]

[0073] It can be understood that in the task template database, each task template corresponds to a template identifier. When searching for a task template, there may or may not be a matching task template in the task template database that matches the template identifier. In one example, if there is no matching task template in the task template database that matches the template identifier, obtain a substitute task template. It can be understood that in order to make the obtained substitute task template closer to the required matching task template, the obtained substitute task template needs to include at least one device label requested for scheduling in the task scheduling request. It can be understood that one device label is used to represent a target device, and the device labels of the same target device are the same.

[0074] In one example, such as Figure 2As shown, another flowchart of the warehousing system scheduling control method is shown. This method is used to exemplarily illustrate step S104, "When there is no matching task template in the task template database that matches the template identifier, obtain a substitute task template". Specifically, referring to Figure 2 , it includes the following steps:

[0075] S200. Search for device task templates with device markings in the task template database.

[0076] Specifically, search for all task templates in the task template database, and use the task template with the device marking corresponding to the target device requested to be scheduled in the task scheduling request in the template as the device task template.

[0077] S202. Obtain the task instructions corresponding to the device marking in the device task template.

[0078] Specifically, in the device task template, the device markings are arranged vertically based on the total number of scheduling times, and each column of device markings corresponds to a task instruction. In one example, obtaining the task instructions corresponding to the device marking in the device task template can be based on the vertical list information in the device task template, and sequentially obtain the task instructions corresponding to each column of device markings, or obtain all the task instructions corresponding to the same device marking.

[0079] S204. Determine the matching degree between the task instructions and the device instructions.

[0080] S206. When the matching degree between the task instructions and the device instructions meets the preset conditions, use the device task template as the substitute task template.

[0081] Specifically, the matching degree between the task instructions and the device instructions can refer to the consistency degree between the task instructions corresponding to the same device marking in the device task template and the device instructions that the target device corresponding to the device marking needs to schedule and execute under the task scheduling request. When the number of consistent task instructions and device instructions corresponding to the same device marking is more than 3 / 4, it can be considered that the matching degree between the task instructions and the device instructions is relatively high. At this time, it can be considered that the matching degree between the task instructions and the device instructions meets the preset conditions, and then use this device task template as the substitute task template. It can be understood that the preset condition of 3 / 4 is only a preferred solution. In other feasible solutions, the preset condition can also be other contents. For example, the task instructions corresponding to the same device marking in the device task template are strictly in one-to-one correspondence with the device instructions that the target device corresponding to the device marking needs to schedule and execute under the task scheduling request.

[0082] It can be understood that when there is no matching task template in the task template database that matches the template identifier, the system can search for a device task template with a device marker in the task template database, and further determine the matching degree between the task instruction and the device instruction according to the task instruction corresponding to the device marker in the device task template. Then, when the matching degree between the task instruction and the device instruction meets the preset condition, the device task template is used as a substitute task template. This method can find a task template similar to the template required by the task scheduling instruction, thereby reducing the data that needs to be updated and improving the update efficiency of the substitute task template.

[0083] Further, in another implementation Figure 3 Another flowchart of the scheduling control method for the warehousing system is given. This method is used to exemplarily illustrate step S206 "When the matching degree between the task instruction and the device instruction meets the preset condition, use the device task template as the substitute task template". Specifically, referring to Figure 3 , it includes the following steps:

[0084] S300. Obtain the comparison task instruction corresponding to the target device marker in the device task template.

[0085] Among them, the target device marker is one of the device markers, and each target device marker corresponds to at least one comparison task instruction, and the comparison task instruction is at least one of the device task instructions. Specifically, the comparison task instruction can be the task instruction corresponding to the target device marker in the device task template.

[0086] S302. Obtain the matching task instruction in the comparison task instruction that has a corresponding relationship with the device instruction of the target device corresponding to the target device marker under the task scheduling instruction.

[0087] Specifically, the corresponding relationship in this step may refer to whether the task instruction corresponding to the target device marker in the device task template matches the device instruction that needs to be scheduled under the task scheduling request, that is, whether it is the same instruction. For example, when the target device marker is "four-way vehicle", if the comparison task instruction is "travel to the picking position" and the device instruction is also "travel to the picking position", then the comparison task instruction is considered a matching task instruction.

[0088] S304. Obtain the number of matching items of the matching task instruction.

[0089] S306. Traverse all target device markers to obtain the total number of task matches in the device task template.

[0090] It is understandable that there may be multiple target device tags in the device task template. Furthermore, it is necessary to traverse all the target device tags to obtain the total number of task matches in the device task template.

[0091] S308. When the total number of task matches is greater than the preset number, use the device task template as the backup task template.

[0092] It is understandable that in this embodiment, by comparing the comparison task instructions of the same target device tag in the device task template with the device instructions under the task scheduling instruction, the total number of task matches with corresponding instructions is obtained. Based on the comparison between the total number of task matches and the preset number, the backup task template is screened out. Thus, a task template similar to the one required by the task scheduling instruction can be screened out in this way, which can reduce the data to be updated and improve the update efficiency of the backup task template.

[0093] Furthermore, in another feasible solution, obtaining the backup task template can also be achieved based on Figure 4 the steps shown. Specifically, refer to Figure 4 , which includes the following steps:

[0094] S400. Obtain the comparison task templates in the device task template, and the comparison task templates are all templates with the total number of task matches greater than the preset number.

[0095] S402. Compare the values of the total number of task matches corresponding to the multiple comparison task templates.

[0096] S404. Use the comparison task template with the largest value of the total number of task matches as the backup task template.

[0097] It is understandable that in this implementation, by selecting the comparison task template with the largest value of the total number of task matches as the backup task template, the backup task template closest to the matching task template can be selected, which can reduce the data to be updated and improve the update efficiency of the backup task template.

[0098] S106. Update the backup task template based on the device instruction, the task execution steps in the backup task template, and the task instructions corresponding to the task execution steps to obtain the target task template, and the target task template includes target execution information.

[0099] S108. Send a task scheduling instruction carrying the target task template to the target device of the warehousing system to schedule the target device to execute the corresponding device instruction based on the target execution information in the target task template.

[0100] It can be understood that through receiving a task scheduling instruction carrying a template identifier, the system can quickly find the devices related to the task and the corresponding device instructions, thereby improving the scheduling efficiency. Further, when there is no task template matching the template identifier in the task template database, the system can obtain a substitute task template and obtain the target task template by updating the substitute task template, without having to rewrite the program code, saving human resources, improving the calling efficiency, and further increasing the scheduling flexibility and adaptability of the warehousing system, enabling the warehousing system to handle various complex and changing tasks.

[0101] Specifically, in one example, Figure 5 shows another flowchart of the scheduling control method for the warehousing system. This method gives an exemplary introduction to step S106. Specifically, referring to Figure 5 , the steps are as follows:

[0102] S500. Obtain the mutually repeated device instructions and task instructions corresponding to the target device label.

[0103] S502. Determine the primary device instruction based on the mutually repeated device instructions and task instructions.

[0104] Specifically, a task instruction corresponds to a target device label in the substitute task template, and a device instruction corresponds to it under the task scheduling instruction. If the task instruction and the device instruction are the same, it is considered that the task instruction and the device instruction are repeated. At this time, the primary device instruction can be determined based on the mutually repeated device instructions and task instructions, that is, the primary device instruction of the target device label is determined based on the mutually repeated device instructions and task instructions. Exemplarily, the task instruction can be used as the primary device instruction of the target device label, or the device instruction can be used as the primary device instruction of the target device label. Actually, the instructions are the same. In this example, in order to reduce the update of the substitute task template, the task instruction already stored in the substitute task template is directly used as the primary device instruction.

[0105] S504. Obtain the missing device label, the redundant device label, the device missing instruction corresponding to the missing device label, and the device redundant instruction corresponding to the redundant device label.

[0106] It can be understood that for the target devices required to be scheduled by the task scheduling instruction, there may be no device label in the substitute task template, and for the devices corresponding to the device labels existing in the substitute task template, they may not need to be called. Therefore, it is necessary to obtain the missing device label, that is, the device label that needs to be scheduled but does not exist in the substitute task template, and obtain the redundant device label, that is, the device label that does not need to be scheduled but exists in the substitute task template. Further, obtain the device missing instruction corresponding to the missing device label and the device redundant instruction corresponding to the redundant device label.

[0107] S506. Update the instruction list in the substitute task template based on the device primary instruction, device missing instruction, and device redundant instruction.

[0108] Specifically, the update of the instruction list can be to retain the device primary instruction in the substitute task template, supplement the device missing instruction, and delete the device redundant instruction.

[0109] S508. Obtain the task execution logic, the primary execution steps corresponding to the device primary instruction, the missing execution steps corresponding to the device missing instruction, and the redundant execution steps corresponding to the device redundant instruction.

[0110] S510. Based on the task execution logic, perform editing processing on the primary execution steps, missing execution steps, and redundant execution steps to obtain the target execution steps.

[0111] It can be understood that the task execution logic can refer to the scheduling task logic that needs to be completed. For example, for the target device of the four-way vehicle, the scheduling logic can be to walk to the picking position - pick up the goods - walk to the goods placement position - place the goods. If the device primary instructions are "walk to the picking position" and "pick up the goods", the primary execution steps corresponding to the device primary instructions are 1 and 2, the device missing instructions are "walk to the goods placement position" and "place the goods", the missing execution steps corresponding to the device missing instructions are "to be determined", "to be determined", the device redundant instruction is "return to the origin position", and the redundant execution step corresponding to the device redundant instruction is 5. Then, at this time, based on the scheduling logic, the missing execution steps for the device missing instructions can be edited as 3 and 4, and the device redundant instruction and the redundant execution step can be deleted, and the primary execution steps and the device missing steps can be arranged in order to obtain the target execution steps 1 - 2 - 3 - 4.

[0112] S512. Update the step execution list in the substitute task template based on the target execution steps.

[0113] It can be understood that the solution of this embodiment can combine the task execution logic to perform editing processing on the primary execution steps, missing execution steps, and redundant execution steps, so that only by reorganizing and deleting some instructions, the update of the substitute task template that matches the execution logic can be realized, improving the update efficiency of the substitute task template, without changing the programming program, saving costs, and improving the system scheduling efficiency.

[0114] Further, in another feasible solution, after updating the replacement task template based on the device instruction, the task execution steps in the replacement task template, and the task instructions corresponding to the task execution steps to obtain the target task template, a target template identifier can be configured for the target task template, and then the task template database can be updated based on the target task template and the target template identifier. By configuring a target template identifier for the target task template and updating the task template database based on the target task template and the target template identifier, the task template can be managed and tracked more effectively, improving the data management efficiency. Moreover, by updating the task template in the database, it can be ensured that all related tasks are carried out according to the latest template, enhancing the data consistency and further improving the scalability of the task template database.

[0115] Further, in another feasible solution, Figure 6 Fig. shows another flowchart of the warehousing system scheduling control method. This step is executed when there is a matching task template in the task template database that matches the template identifier, and is used to send a task scheduling instruction carrying the matching task template to the target device of the warehousing system, so as to schedule the target device to execute the corresponding device instruction based on the execution information in the matching task template. Refer to Figure 6 , and may include the following steps:

[0116] S600. Obtain the total number of schedules and the scheduling execution steps in the matching task template. The total number of schedules is used to represent the total number of times the task scheduling instruction schedules the target device in the warehousing system.

[0117] S602. Sequentially schedule the target device to execute the corresponding target instructions based on the scheduling execution steps.

[0118] S604. Determine whether the current number of schedules corresponding to the scheduling execution step is less than the total number of schedules, where one scheduling execution step corresponds to one schedule.

[0119] S606. When the current number of schedules is less than the total number of schedules, schedule the target device corresponding to the current execution step to execute its corresponding device instruction.

[0120] S608. Control the scheduling execution step to increment by 1.

[0121] Exemplarily, when the matching task template is the template shown in Table 2, first execute the scheduling execution step 1, and schedule the four-way vehicle to execute the device instruction to walk to the picking position. When this scheduling is completed, determine whether the scheduling times of this scheduling execution step are less than the total scheduling times. Based on Table 2, the total scheduling times are 4, and the current scheduling times are 1. Therefore, the condition is met. At this time, execute step S606 and step S608. After executing step S608, the current scheduling times are 2. At this time, the scheduling execution step is 2.
