[0052] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the technical solutions of the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0053] In the related art, the commodity management system is relatively slow in updating commodity information, and it is difficult to respond in time to situations encountered during the commodity sales process.

[0054] The present application provides a solution: by determining the commodity information corresponding to the shelf pusher and the pulse quantity information contained in the commodity change information according to the commodity change information sent by the shelf pusher; determining the travel distance of the shelf pusher according to the pulse quantity information and the unit distance of the pulse signal corresponding to the pulse quantity information; obtaining the size information of the target commodity corresponding to the commodity information, and obtaining the commodity sales quantity of the target commodity according to the ratio of the size information to the travel distance; updating the commodity management information in the database according to the commodity sales quantity, and synchronizing the commodity management information to the shelf pusher, thereby overcoming the technical problem that the commodity management system is relatively slow in updating commodity information and is difficult to respond to situations encountered in the commodity sales process in a timely manner, and improving the management efficiency of the shelf pusher.

[0055] It should be noted that the execution subject of this embodiment can be a computing service device with data processing, network communication and program running functions, such as a tablet computer, a personal computer, a mobile phone, etc., or an electronic device capable of realizing the above functions, a cloud server, a shelf pusher, etc. The following takes the cloud server as an example to illustrate this embodiment and the following embodiments.

[0056] In order to better understand the technical solution of the present application, a detailed description will be given below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0057] The present application embodiment provides a cloud management method for a shelf pusher, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flow chart of the first embodiment of the cloud management method for shelf pushers of the present application.

[0058] In this embodiment, the cloud management method of the shelf pusher includes steps S10 to S40:

[0059] Step S10, determining the commodity information corresponding to the shelf pusher and the pulse quantity information included in the commodity change information according to the commodity change information sent by the shelf pusher;

[0060] In this embodiment, the commodity information is a unique identifier for determining the commodity. The unique commodity can be determined through the commodity information. The commodity information includes the commodity code. The commodity code can be used to find information matching the commodity code in the database. The pulse quantity information refers to the number of times a pulse signal is transmitted. The pulse signal is transmitted by the roller sensor. The pulse quantity information is obtained by accumulating the number of times the pulse signal is transmitted. The cargo change information includes the commodity information and the pulse quantity information. The cargo change information includes wireless signal transmission and wired transmission. The cargo change information in the form of wireless signals can be received by a base station, and the cargo change information in the form of wired transmission can be received by a gateway.

[0061] As an optional implementation, the commodity information and pulse quantity information can be obtained through the commodity change information sent by the shelf pusher, and the commodity code can be confirmed through the commodity information.

[0062] Step S20, determining the travel distance of the shelf pusher according to the pulse quantity information and the unit distance of the pulse signal corresponding to the pulse quantity information;

[0063] In this embodiment, the travel distance of the shelf pusher refers to the distance that the baffle on the shelf pusher moves when the goods on the shelf pusher are sold. The pulse quantity information is the number of times the pulse signal is transmitted, which will increase with the increase of the above-mentioned moving distance. The unit distance of the pulse quantity information corresponding to the pulse signal refers to the travel distance corresponding to the transmission of a pulse signal. The above-mentioned unit distance is preset, stored in the database, and associated with the shelf pusher. When the goods change information of the shelf pusher is received, the shelf number of the shelf pusher is determined by the source of the goods change information, and then the unit distance of the pulse signal corresponding to it is obtained in the database according to the shelf number of the shelf pusher.

[0064] As an optional implementation, by multiplying the pulse quantity information by the unit distance of the pulse signal corresponding to the pulse quantity information, the product result is the travel distance of the shelf pusher.

[0065] Step S30, obtaining size information of a target product corresponding to the product information, and obtaining a sales quantity of the target product according to a ratio of the size information to the travel distance;

[0066] In this embodiment, the size information is the length of a single target commodity in the pushing direction of the shelf pusher, which is determined according to the placement of the commodity. The size information can be the length, width or thickness of the target commodity. The commodity sales quantity is the sales quantity of the target commodity on the shelf pusher this time. The target commodity is a unique commodity determined by the commodity code.

[0067] As an optional implementation, the corresponding size information is obtained from the database through the commodity information, and the quotient obtained by dividing the travel distance by the size information is the sales quantity of the target commodity.

[0068] Step S40: updating the commodity management information in the database according to the sales quantity of the commodity, and synchronizing the commodity management information to the shelf pusher.

[0069] In this embodiment, the commodity management information includes the sales quantity of the commodity, the inventory quantity of the commodity, and the time when the inventory of the commodity is cleared. The time when the inventory of the commodity is cleared is estimated based on the inventory quantity of the commodity and the sales situation.

[0070] As an optional implementation, the total sales quantity of the product, the inventory quantity of the product, and the inventory clearance time are updated in the database according to the sales quantity of the product this time, and the sales quantity of the product this time is synchronized to the shelf pusher.

[0071] Exemplarily, the cargo change information includes wireless signal transmission and wired transmission. When the cargo change information is transmitted via wireless signals, the wireless signals sent by several shelf pushers are collected through the base station, and the cloud server receives the wireless signals through the base station. The cloud server determines the commodity information and pulse quantity information corresponding to each shelf pusher through the wireless signal, and then determines the travel distance of the shelf pusher based on the pulse quantity information and the unit distance of the pulse signal corresponding to the pulse quantity information, and then obtains the corresponding size information in the database through the commodity information, and divides the travel distance by the size information to obtain the sales quantity of the target commodity. Finally, the database is updated according to the sales quantity of the commodity, and the relevant information is synchronized to the shelf pusher. When the cargo change information is transmitted via wired transmission, the cloud server receives the wired signal through the local gateway.

[0072] Since the shelf pushers are managed through the cloud server, the technical problem that the commodity management system is slow to update commodity information and has difficulty in responding to situations encountered during the commodity sales process in a timely manner is overcome, thereby improving the management efficiency of the shelf pushers.

[0073] Based on any of the above embodiments, in Embodiment 2 of the present application, refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a flow chart of the second embodiment of the cloud management method for shelf pushers of the present application. Step S30 includes steps A11 to A14:

[0074] Step A11, obtaining the product code in the product information;

[0075] In this embodiment, the commodity code is a coding system used to uniquely identify commodities, which is equivalent to a citizen's ID number and is unique.

[0076] As an optional implementation, a commodity code is obtained from the commodity information, and the target commodity is determined by the commodity code.

[0077] Step A12, searching the database for the target product corresponding to the product code;

[0078] In this embodiment, the commodity code is included in the commodity information, and the commodity code is determined through the commodity information.

[0079] As an optional implementation, the commodity code is queried through a database, and the corresponding target commodity is determined through the commodity code.

[0080] Step A13, obtaining the size information of the target product in the database;

[0081] In this embodiment, the database stores the size information corresponding to the target commodity on the shelf pusher.

[0082] As an optional implementation, according to the target commodity determined by the commodity code, the size information corresponding to the target commodity is obtained from the database.

[0083] Step A14, calculating the ratio of the travel distance of the shelf pusher to the size information, and accumulating the ratio as the sales quantity of the target commodity.

[0084] In this embodiment, the sales quantity of a commodity refers to the total sales quantity of a target commodity, and the sales quantity of the target commodity of a single shelf pusher is counted, and then the sales quantity of the target commodity is centrally counted.

[0085] As an optional implementation, the travel distance of the shelf pusher is divided by the size information to obtain a quotient, and the above process is repeated, and the results are accumulated to obtain the sales quantity of the target product.

[0086] Exemplarily, the product coder in the product information is obtained, and then the corresponding target product is queried in the database through the product code, and the size information of the target product is searched in the database according to the target product, and then the travel distance of the shelf pusher is determined according to the pulse quantity information and the unit distance of the pulse signal corresponding to the pulse quantity information. Finally, the travel distance of the shelf pusher is divided by the size information, and the above process is repeated. The accumulated results are the sales quantity of the target product.

[0087] Since the sales of shelf pushers are managed uniformly using product codes and size information, various data on product sales can be quickly known, which solves the problem of messy product management and improves the orderliness of product management.

[0088] Based on any of the above embodiments, in Embodiment 3 of the present application, refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a flow chart of the third embodiment of the cloud management method for shelf pushers of the present application. After step S30, it also includes steps B11 to B13:

[0089] Step B11, generating sales information of the target commodity according to the sales quantity of the commodity and the commodity sales interval corresponding to the sales quantity of the commodity;

[0090] In this embodiment, the commodity sales interval refers to grouping the sales data of the commodity by price or sales amount in order to better understand the sales distribution. Through the analysis of the sales interval, important information such as the sales distribution of the commodity, the consumption habits of customers, and the market positioning can be understood. Sales information includes sales quantity, sales amount, sales proportion, and sales trend.

[0091] As an optional implementation, the sales information of the target product is generated by analyzing the sales range and combining the sales quantity of the product.

[0092] Step B12, obtaining a pre-stored sales report template, and determining each information module in the sales report template;

[0093] In this embodiment, the sales report template is a preset report template for statistical commodity sales, including statistics on sales data and market data. The information module includes sales data, commodity sales quantity, commodity sales amount and market data.

[0094] As an optional implementation, a sales report template is obtained from a database, and the data type required by each information module on the sales report template is determined.

[0095] Step B13, based on the matching relationship between the sales information and the information module, fill the sales information into the sales report template to generate a commodity sales report.

[0096] In this embodiment, the commodity sales report refers to the generation of a sales strategy by improving the data of each information module based on the sales report template, analyzing the sales data and market data.

[0097] As an optional implementation, the sales information is matched with the data type required by the sales information module, and the content of the sales report template is completed according to the matching result. The commodity sales report is generated by analyzing the data on the sales report module.

[0098] Exemplarily, based on the sales quantity of goods, the corresponding sales range of the goods is analyzed to generate sales information of the target goods, obtain a sales report template from the database, confirm the data type required on the sales report template, and then fill in the sales report template according to the sales information, analyze the data in the sales report template, and generate a product sales report.

[0099] By combining the generation of commodity sales reports, we can have a clear understanding of the sales trends and sales markets of commodities, so as to effectively manage commodity sales and improve the efficiency of commodity sales management.

[0100] Based on any of the above embodiments, in Embodiment 4 of the present application, refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a flow chart of the fourth embodiment of the cloud management method for shelf pushers of the present application. After step S40, it also includes steps C11 to C13:

[0101] Step C11, obtaining the replenishment time of the commodity information, and determining the inventory clearance time of the target commodity based on the commodity management information;

[0102] In this embodiment, the replenishment time refers to the preset replenishment cycle of the commodity. The inventory clearance time refers to the estimated time period for the commodity inventory to be completely sold out based on the sales information of the commodity and the quantity of the commodity in stock.

[0103] As an optional implementation, based on the replenishment time corresponding to the product information, the product management information is obtained from the database, thereby obtaining the product inventory information, and finally determining the inventory clearance time.

[0104] Step C12, inputting the replenishment time, the sales information and the inventory clearance time into a replenishment model, and obtaining a replenishment plan based on the result output by the replenishment model;

[0105] In this embodiment, the replenishment model refers to a big data model that has been trained with a large amount of replenishment time, sales information, and inventory clearance time. The replenishment model has the function of analyzing data information through a large amount of data training to derive a replenishment plan. The replenishment plan includes a replenishment strategy and a minimum inventory balance strategy, including a regular replenishment strategy: replenishment based on a certain time interval, suitable for goods with relatively stable inventory demand; setting a fixed replenishment cycle, such as weekly, monthly, etc., and determining the replenishment quantity each time based on historical sales data and inventory levels; minimum inventory strategy: setting a minimum inventory and maximum inventory threshold, when the inventory is lower than the minimum value, triggering the replenishment operation; when the inventory reaches the maximum value, stopping replenishment, this strategy can maximize the control of inventory and avoid excessive or insufficient inventory.

[0106] As an optional implementation, a large amount of replenishment time, sales information and inventory clearance time are used to train a big data model to obtain a replenishment model, and then the replenishment time, sales information and inventory clearance time are input into the replenishment model, and a replenishment plan is obtained based on the results output by the replenishment model.

[0107] Step C13: Generate and output replenishment information according to the replenishment plan.

[0108] In this embodiment, the replenishment information refers to prompt information generated according to the replenishment plan output by the replenishment model, which is used to prompt the management personnel to replenish the relevant commodities.

[0109] As an optional implementation method, specific replenishment instructions or information are formulated and output based on the replenishment plan.

[0110] For example, when the replenishment time of a product is preset to one month, and then based on the product management information, it is inferred that the inventory clearance time of the product is half a month, and the sales information shows that the sales quantity of the product is on an upward trend, the replenishment time, sales information and inventory clearance time are input into the replenishment model to obtain the output result of the replenishment model and generate a replenishment plan. The replenishment plan recommends replenishment within twenty days, and then generates replenishment information to remind management personnel that the product needs to be replenished within twenty days. It can also automatically place regular orders for goods to ensure sufficient goods.

[0111] By introducing the big data training model and using the model to assist in the generation of replenishment plans, the problem of being unable to conduct accurate replenishment analysis was solved and the efficiency of commodity management was improved.

[0112] Based on any of the above embodiments, in Embodiment 5 of the present application, refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is a flowchart of the fifth embodiment of the cloud management method for shelf pushers of the present application. After step C13, it also includes steps D11 to D13:

[0113] Step D11, receiving interaction information from the management platform;

[0114] In this embodiment, the management platform is a comprehensive interface or tool for managing, monitoring and operating a specific system, application or service, which allows administrators or authorized users to perform various management tasks through the platform. Interaction information is adjustment information issued by administrators through the management platform, including modifications to product-related information.

[0115] As an optional implementation, the manager sends the interactive information including the commodity adjustment information through the management platform, and the cloud server receives the interactive information.

[0116] Step D12, analyzing the interaction information to obtain corresponding adjustment parameters;

[0117] In this embodiment, the adjustment parameter is the adjustment of the commodity-related information in the interactive information sent by the manager.

[0118] As an optional implementation, the interactive information sent by the management platform is parsed to obtain adjustment parameters for the commodity-related information.

[0119] Step D13, sending the adjustment parameters to the shelf pusher.

[0120] In this embodiment, the adjustment parameters include adjustment of commodity related information such as commodity price, commodity date, and commodity name. The commodity date includes the production date, shelf date, and expiration date of the commodity.

[0121] As an optional implementation, adjustment parameters for commodity-related information are sent to the shelf pusher, and the electronic price tag on the shelf pusher is updated according to the adjustment parameters.

[0122] For example, the manager wants to increase the price of a product by ten percent, and then the manager enters this information into the management platform. The management platform generates interactive information and sends it to the cloud server. The cloud server generates adjustment parameters based on the product management information. The adjustment parameters are to adjust the selling price of the product to twenty yuan. The cloud server sends the adjustment parameters to the shelf pusher, and the electronic price tag of the shelf pusher updates the price of the product to twenty yuan based on the adjustment parameters.

[0123] By setting up a management platform, information interaction is established between managers, cloud servers and shelf pushers, making it more convenient for managers to manage shelf pushers and their products, thereby improving the management efficiency of shelf pushers.

[0124] Based on any of the above embodiments, in Embodiment 6 of the present application, the shelf number is associated with the product on the cloud server.

[0125] In this embodiment, the shelf number is a number for identifying each shelf pusher. The shelf number is unique and is a means of identifying the shelf pusher.

[0126] As an optional implementation, cargo change information is received, the commodity code of the commodity information in the cargo change information is obtained, the target commodity is matched in the database through the commodity code, and the shelf number of the shelf pusher is determined in the database through the target commodity and the commodity code.

[0127] Exemplarily, the database of the cloud server stores shelf number information corresponding to the product code, receives product information with the product code of 123, and obtains the target product information and the shelf number information of the shelf pusher by matching the information in the database.

[0128] Since the shelf pusher is associated with the goods on the shelf pusher, errors in synchronization of the goods management information are avoided, and the management efficiency of the shelf pusher and its goods is improved.

[0129] It should be noted that the execution subject of this embodiment can be a computing service device with data processing, network communication and program running functions, such as a tablet computer, a personal computer, a mobile phone, etc., or an electronic device capable of realizing the above functions, a cloud server, a shelf pusher, etc. The following takes a shelf pusher as an example to illustrate this embodiment and the following embodiments.

[0130] The present application embodiment provides a cloud management method for a shelf pusher, referring to Figure 6 , Figure 6 This is a flow chart of the seventh embodiment of the cloud management method for shelf pushers of the present application.

[0131] In this embodiment, the method is applied to a shelf pusher, the shelf pusher includes an electronic price tag, a roller sensor and a baffle, and a spring rope respectively connecting the roller sensor and the baffle, and the method includes steps F11 to F13:

[0132] Step F11, obtaining a pulse signal generated by the roller sensor, wherein the pulse signal is generated by the roller sensor based on the length of the spring rope recovered by the moving distance of the baffle plate;

[0133] In this embodiment, the electronic price tag is also called an electronic shelf label, which is an electronic display device with information receiving and sending functions. The electronic price tag can display relevant information such as the price, product date, and product name of the product. The roller sensor is connected to one end of the spring rope, and the other end of the spring rope is connected to the baffle. As the product is sold, the baffle drives the spring rope to move, and the movement of the spring rope causes the roller sensor to roll and emit a pulse signal. The product date includes the production date, shelf date, and expiration date of the product.

[0134] As an optional implementation, the roller sensor recycles the length of the spring rope based on the moving distance of the baffle, and the roller sensor rolls accordingly and sends out a pulse signal of a corresponding number of times.

[0135] Step F12, accumulating the pulse quantity information of the pulse signal, and sending the cargo change information generated based on the pulse quantity information to the cloud server;

[0136] In this embodiment, the unit distance corresponding to a single pulse signal is obtained in the database according to the shelf number. The unit distance of the corresponding pulse signal is obtained in the database according to the shelf number of the shelf pusher, and the moving distance is quantitatively analyzed by accumulating the number of pulse signal transmissions.

[0137] As an optional implementation, the pulse signals emitted by the roller sensor are accumulated to obtain pulse quantity information, and goods change information is generated based on the pulse quantity information and commodity information, and finally the goods change information is sent to the cloud server.

[0138] Step F13, after receiving the commodity management information sent by the cloud server, updating the display content of the electronic price tag based on the commodity management information.

[0139] In this embodiment, the cloud server updates the commodity management information according to the sales information of the commodity, and sends the updated commodity management information to the shelf pusher through the goods change information to synchronize the information.

[0140] As an optional implementation, the shelf pusher updates information such as the commodity price, commodity date, and commodity name on the electronic price tag according to the received commodity management information.

[0141] Exemplarily, the roller sensor is set to emit a pulse signal every time the shelf pusher moves one centimeter. When a product is sold, the baffle moves three centimeters, the roller sensor rolls three centimeters, and emits three pulse signals. The pulse quantity information of the three pulse signals is accumulated, and the goods change information is generated and sent to the cloud server. After receiving the goods change information, the cloud server updates the goods management information and sends it to the shelf pusher. The electronic price tag on the shelf pusher updates the quantity of the goods according to the goods management information and reduces it by one.

[0142] By accumulating pulse signals and managing information through cloud servers, the sales quantity of goods can be accurately determined, solving the problem of the inability to count product information in a timely manner and improving the efficiency of product management.

[0143] Based on any of the above embodiments, in Embodiment 8 of the present application, refer to Figure 7 , Figure 7 This is a flow chart of the eighth embodiment of the cloud management method for shelf pushers of the present application. After step F13, it also includes steps G11 to G12:

[0144] Step G11, obtaining adjustment parameters, and parsing the commodity adjustment information in the adjustment parameters;

[0145] In this embodiment, the commodity adjustment information includes corresponding adjustments to the commodity price, commodity quantity, commodity date and commodity name. The commodity date includes the production date, shelf date and expiration date of the commodity.

[0146] As an optional implementation, adjustment parameters are obtained, and commodity adjustment information is parsed according to the adjustment parameters, including adjustments to commodity price, commodity quantity, commodity date, and commodity name.

[0147] Step G12: updating the display content of the electronic price tag according to the commodity adjustment information.

[0148] In this embodiment, the displayed content includes basic commodity information such as commodity price, commodity name, commodity date, etc. The commodity date includes the production date, shelf date and expiration date of the commodity.

[0149] As an optional implementation, the electronic price tag adjusts the commodity price, commodity date and commodity name in the displayed content accordingly according to the received commodity adjustment information.

[0150] Exemplarily, the adjustment parameters sent by the cloud server include parameters for postponing the product date change by ten days. The shelf pusher receives the adjustment parameters and parses the product adjustment information to postpone the product date by ten days. The display content of the electronic price tag is updated accordingly, and the displayed product date is postponed by ten days.

[0151] Since electronic price tags are managed uniformly through cloud servers, the phenomenon of shops randomly setting prices and changing dates can be avoided, making product information more authentic and improving the security of product management.

[0152] Based on any of the above embodiments, in Embodiment 9 of the present application, refer to Figure 8 , Figure 8 This is the structure diagram of the cloud management system of the shelf pusher in this application.

[0153] In this embodiment, the cloud management system of the shelf pusher includes a cloud server and a shelf pusher, and the cloud server includes a management platform and a database.

[0154] For example, after the goods on the shelf pusher are sold, the baffle on the shelf pusher moves, causing the spring rope to contract, driving the roller sensor to roll and send a pulse signal. The shelf pusher combines the pulse quantity information and the product information to generate the goods change information and sends it to the cloud server. The cloud server determines the corresponding product information and the pulse quantity information contained in the shelf pusher according to the goods change information, and then determines the sales quantity of the goods, updates the goods management information, determines the shelf number of the shelf pusher through the source of the goods change information, and synchronizes the goods management information to the shelf pusher. The management personnel can change the goods management information through the management platform, and the management platform sends the interactive information, and then parses the adjustment parameters through the cloud server, and finally sends the adjustment parameters to the shelf pusher.

[0155] It should be noted that the above examples are only used to understand the present application and do not constitute a limitation on the cloud management method of the shelf pusher of the present application.
