Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of airport baggage system technology, and more specifically to a method and system for intelligent transportation and full-process tracking of oversized baggage. Background Technology

[0002] In accordance with the standards for building four types of airports, it is necessary for airports to gradually become intelligent. At the same time, airports must ensure that passengers' checked baggage is effectively tracked and confirmed at all stages, including check-in, loading, transfer and retrieval, in order to reduce or eliminate the risk of lost baggage or delayed boarding.

[0003] Currently, the usual practice for handling oversized baggage is as follows: staff print baggage tags and perform an initial scan at check-in, followed by a second scan for confirmation when the oversized baggage is loaded onto the trailer, and a final scan for confirmation before boarding. From check-in to loading onto the trailer, the handling of large baggage relies entirely on manual transport. This not only increases the intensity of labor but also, during peak airport hours, with the increase in the number of oversized baggage and its destinations, the lack of secondary information acquisition on oversized baggage and the inability to track its real-time location increases the risk of baggage loss or failure to arrive at the destination flight's trailer on time.

[0004] Therefore, how to achieve automated transportation and full-process tracking of oversized baggage from check-in to loading onto trailers is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of this, the present invention provides a method and system for intelligent transportation and full-process tracking of oversized baggage to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A method for intelligent transportation and end-to-end tracking of oversized baggage includes the following steps:

[0008] S1. Check-in, security check, and oversized baggage loading area are located on the check-in floor. RFID baggage tags are printed and associated with relevant data during check-in. The RFID baggage tags are affixed to the baggage and include passenger data, flight data, and baggage data. The RFID baggage tag data is transmitted to the central control server in real time.

[0009] S2. Oversized baggage undergoes security screening, and the security screening status of the oversized baggage is transmitted to the central control server;

[0010] S3. Baggage that has passed security check arrives at the oversized baggage loading area. The automatic barcode scanning and handling equipment scans the RFID tags of the containers and baggage and binds them. The binding result is transmitted to the central control server and the information of the loaded baggage is displayed on the channel display screen. The automatic barcode scanning and handling equipment loads the baggage into the corresponding container.

[0011] S4. The container volume ratio is detected by the visual inspection equipment on top of the container, and the container can be automatically judged to see if it can still receive luggage. When the equipment detects that the container has reached the set limit or cannot accommodate luggage, the information is fed back to the central control system, and the central control system dispatches the automatic transport vehicle to the corresponding work station to move the container.

[0012] S5. The automated transport vehicle arrives at the workstation to transport the container, reaches the fixed position at the elevator entrance, and requests the elevator from the central control server. The elevator then delivers the automated transport vehicle to the baggage sorting hall floor.

[0013] S6. After the automated transport vehicle arrives at the baggage sorting hall, the RFID reader at the baggage sorting hall reads the RFID tag of the container, and the central control system issues the baggage delivery task to the automated transport vehicle through the dispatch system.

[0014] S7. The automated guided vehicle arrives at the designated area of ​​the container carousel and places the container, then leaves; the RFID reader in the designated area reads the container's tag and displays the baggage information inside the container on the display screen configured in the designated area; the staff performs the unloading operation, and the display screen updates the status of the unloaded baggage;

[0015] S8. Once all the luggage in the container has been retrieved, i.e., the luggage information displayed on the screen has been updated to the retrieved status, the central control server dispatches the automated guided vehicle (AGV) to move the empty container. The AGV is then transported to the check-in floor via elevator. The AGV moves the empty container to the packing station, waiting for the next luggage packing.

[0016] S9. Use the oversized baggage information query platform to query information nodes related to the processing of oversized baggage and track the location of oversized baggage in real time.

[0017] Preferably, in step S4, the oversized baggage loading area has multiple packing stations, each check-in security checkpoint corresponds to multiple packing stations, each packing station has a unique and fixed RFID tag and a reader for reading the RFID number of the container. When a container enters a packing station, the container and the packing station are bound one by one, and the packing station is connected to the central control server to upload the status information of the packing station.

[0018] Preferably, step S4 further includes: the process of loading oversized baggage into the container can be carried out manually: staff use handheld terminals to scan the baggage RFID tags and use manual handling devices to move the baggage to the container.

[0019] Preferably, step S5 is as follows: the automated transport vehicle arrives at the fixed position at the elevator entrance, requests the elevator, the elevator opens its door according to the request signal, and sends an elevator arrival signal back to the automated transport vehicle; the automated transport vehicle enters the elevator, sends an arrival signal to the elevator and sends the destination floor information to the elevator; the elevator operates, arrives at the destination floor, and sends an elevator arrival signal, door opening signal, and arrival floor information back to the automated transport vehicle; the automated transport vehicle updates the map according to the information.

[0020] Preferably, step S5 further includes:

[0021] When the automated barcode scanning and handling equipment scans the baggage barcode, it analyzes the data and finds that the baggage's departure time is less than the time set by the central control system. At the same time, a prompt message appears on the channel display screen. After the baggage is loaded into the container, the central control server dispatches the automated transport vehicle to prioritize the transport of the container.

[0022] When staff need to deliver luggage to its destination in advance, they can send instructions directly to the central control server via a manual command device. The central control server will then dispatch automated guided vehicles to transport the luggage.

[0023] Preferably, step S6 specifically involves the following: The central control server, based on the container tag information read from the elevator in the baggage sorting hall, issues the container destination to the automated guided vehicle (AGV). The AAV performs environmental scanning and path planning, automatically bypassing obstacles encountered during operation and replanning its route. When the AAV or baggage trolleys converge, the central control system coordinates and schedules the AAV to reach the container destination through traffic lights and route changes. If there is baggage in the container that is close to the flight's departure time, the AAV prioritizes delivering that baggage to the container carousel.

[0024] Preferably, in step S8, the automated transport vehicle transports empty containers from the baggage sorting hall to the check-in area for use, and the RFID reader in the elevator of the baggage sorting hall clears the baggage information previously bound to the container.

Detailed Implementation

[0049] 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.

[0050] This invention discloses an intelligent transportation and end-to-end tracking method for oversized baggage, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 This includes the following steps:

[0051] The check-in, security check, and oversized baggage loading areas are located on the check-in level. The oversized baggage loading area has multiple loading stations, each with a unique RFID tag and a reader to read the container's RFID number. When a container enters a loading station, the container is bound to that station. The loading stations are connected to a central control system, which can upload the station's status information. In the baggage loading area, each check-in and security checkpoint has a corresponding display screen to show information about the loaded baggage. Each check-in and security checkpoint corresponds to multiple loading stations.

[0052] S1. Print RFID baggage tags and associate them with relevant data during check-in. The RFID baggage tags are affixed to the baggage. The RFID baggage tags include passenger data, flight data, and baggage data. The RFID baggage tag data is transmitted to the central control server in real time.

[0053] S2. Oversized baggage undergoes security screening, and the security screening system transmits the security screening status of the oversized baggage to the central control server;

[0054] S3. Once the baggage has passed through security, it arrives at the loading area. The automated barcode scanning and handling equipment first scans the RFID tag on the container, then scans the RFID tag on the baggage and binds them together. The binding result is transmitted to the central control server, and the baggage information will also appear on the display screen of this channel. The automated barcode scanning and handling equipment then loads the baggage into the container.

[0055] S4. A device is installed above the container to visually detect the container's volume ratio. This device automatically determines whether the container can still receive luggage. When the device detects that the container has reached its set limit or cannot accommodate luggage, it feeds the information back to the central control system. The central control system will then notify the automatic barcode scanning and handling equipment to stop moving luggage to the container and simultaneously notify the automated transport vehicle to come to the workstation to move the container to the luggage sorting hall.

[0056] S5. When the automated barcode scanning and handling equipment scans the baggage barcode, it is found that the baggage is less than the time set by the central control system before the flight departure time. At the same time, a prompt message will appear on the channel display screen. After the baggage is loaded into the container, the central control system will dispatch the automated transport vehicle to transport the container in a timely manner.

[0057] The automated guided vehicle (AGV) arrives at the workstation to move the container. The AGV then reaches a fixed position at the elevator entrance and requests an elevator from the central control server. The AGV enters the elevator, and the elevator transports the AGV to the baggage sorting hall floor. When the AGV arrives at the baggage sorting hall, the elevator doors open and inform the AGV of the current floor. The AGV updates the map based on this information.

[0058] S6. After the automated guided vehicle arrives at the baggage sorting hall, the RFID reader at the baggage sorting hall reads the RFID tag of the container, and the central control system issues the baggage delivery task to the automated guided vehicle through the dispatch system; if there is baggage in the container that is close to the flight departure time, the automated guided vehicle will give priority to delivering the baggage to the container carousel.

[0059] S7. The automated guided vehicle arrives at the designated area of ​​the container carousel, places the container in the area, and then leaves. The designated area is equipped with an RFID reader, which reads the container's tag and displays the baggage information inside the container on a screen in the area. Staff operate on the screen to update the status of the baggage that has been taken away.

[0060] S8. Once all the luggage in the container has been retrieved, that is, once the luggage information displayed on the screen has been updated to the retrieved status, the controller of this area sends the information about the container that needs to be moved to the central control system, and the central control system sends the task information to the automated guided vehicle scheduling system.

[0061] The automated transport vehicle arrives at the designated location to move empty containers. When it reaches the elevator area of ​​the baggage sorting hall, the baggage information bound to the RFID tag in the empty container is cleared by the barcode reader in the elevator area.

[0062] The automated guided vehicle (AGV) requests an elevator, which then transports the AGV to the check-in floor. The AGV then moves the empty container to the packing station, where it awaits luggage packing.

[0063] S9. Information nodes for oversized baggage handling can be queried through the oversized baggage information query platform to track the real-time location of oversized baggage.

[0064] To further implement the above technical solution, step S4 can be implemented in a manual operation mode: staff use handheld terminals to scan luggage RFID tags, use manual handling devices to move luggage to containers, and manually determine whether to continue loading luggage and use handheld terminals to directly issue instructions to the central control server. After receiving the instructions, the central control server dispatches automated transport vehicles for transportation.

[0065] To further implement the above technical solution, in step S5, the automated guided vehicle (AGV) is linked with the elevator. Specifically, the AAV arrives at a fixed position at the elevator entrance and requests the elevator. The elevator opens its doors according to the request signal and sends an elevator arrival signal back to the AAV. The AAV enters the elevator, sends an arrival signal to the elevator, and sends the destination floor information to the elevator. The elevator operates, reaches the destination floor, and sends an elevator arrival signal, door opening signal, and floor information back to the AAV.

[0066] To further implement the above technical solution, in step S6, the central control server issues the container destination to the automated guided vehicle (AGV) based on the container tag information read from the elevator in the baggage sorting hall. The AAV performs environmental scanning and path planning, automatically avoids obstacles during operation, and replans its route. When the AAV or baggage trolleys converge, the central control system coordinates and schedules the AAV to reach the container destination through traffic lights and route changes.

[0067] To further implement the above technical solution, a method for intelligent transportation and full-process tracking of oversized baggage is provided. Step S8 further includes: if there is no available packing station, the empty container will be transported to the container waiting area.

[0076] The central control server is used to receive RFID container tag and RFID baggage tag data in real time, as well as information from baggage automatic barcode scanning and handling equipment and visual detectors, and to control and schedule automated guided vehicles (AGVs) to transport containers. The elevator and AGV scheduling system communicates through the central control server. It receives RFID tag data from the elevator lobbies in the baggage sorting hall, and according to the information, schedules AGVs to deliver containers to the designated area of ​​the container turntable. The received baggage information is displayed on the screen.

The RFID baggage tag printing module is used to print RFID baggage tags and associate them with relevant data during check-in, and transmit the RFID baggage tag data to the central control server in real time. The RFID baggage tag includes passenger data, flight data and baggage data. Containers are used to store luggage that needs to be transported, and RFID container tags are installed on the containers. A visual detector is installed above the container at the packing station to monitor changes in container volume ratio in real time, determine whether the container volume ratio exceeds the set value, and send information to the central control server. The automated baggage scanning and handling equipment, located in the check-in area, is used to automatically scan baggage RFID tags and transmit the information to the central control server, automatically pick up baggage and put it into containers, and communicate with visual detectors. The aisle display screen is used to show baggage information scanned by the automated baggage handling equipment, and to provide a prompt when the departure time of the flight to which the baggage belongs is less than the set value; The RFID reader at the packing station is used to scan RFID container tags, bind them to the packing station, and transmit the binding result to the central control server. The central control server is used to receive RFID container tag and RFID baggage tag data in real time, as well as information from baggage automatic barcode scanning and handling equipment and visual detectors, and to control and schedule automated guided vehicles (AGVs) to transport containers; it is used for scheduling communication between elevators and AAVs; it receives RFID tag data from the elevator lobbies in the baggage sorting hall, and according to the information, it schedules AAVs to deliver containers to the designated area of ​​the container turntable; and it displays the received baggage information on the display screen. Automated guided vehicles (AGVs) are used to transport containers, receive instructions from the dispatching system, and send the AAV's location information in real time. Elevators are used to transport automated guided vehicles (AGVs), and communication with the AAVs is achieved through a central control server. The RFID reader in the elevator of the baggage sorting hall is used to scan the RFID container tag when the automated transport vehicle arrives at the elevator of the baggage sorting hall to confirm the destination of the container to the central control server. The central control server then sends the instruction to the automated transport vehicle. The container turntable has a designated area RFID reader and information display screen, which is used to read the RFID tag information of the container when the container arrives at the designated area, display the baggage information bound to the container on the information display screen, and update the baggage status information. The oversized baggage information query platform is used to query information and location of oversized baggage.
