Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of warehouse storage technology, and in particular to a dynamic intelligent storage method and system for cargo locations based on the Internet of Things. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of logistics and storage technologies, warehousing has emerged. Warehousing refers to the storage and safekeeping of goods and items in warehouses. "Warehouse" is a general term for buildings and sites used for storing, safekeeping, and preserving goods. These can be buildings, caves, large containers, or specific sites, and have the function of storing and protecting goods. "Storage" means to store or reserve, indicating that goods are collected and stored for future use, and has the meaning of receiving, safekeeping, and delivering goods for use.

[0003] Currently, due to the development of Internet technology, more and more storage warehouses are being integrated with the Internet, resulting in smart warehouses that utilize the powerful computing capabilities of the Internet for efficient storage.

[0004] However, most of the aforementioned smart warehouses utilize the internet to plan reasonable storage locations for goods. But there are some goods that suddenly become popular. These popular goods have the characteristic of a sudden surge in demand, followed by a gradual decrease in demand over time. Existing smart warehouses cannot replan storage locations in real time, which may result in popular goods being located deep inside the smart warehouse, making each storage and retrieval inconvenient. To address this, we propose a dynamic location-based smart storage method and system based on the Internet of Things. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a dynamic intelligent storage method and system based on the Internet of Things. This method facilitates the classification of goods by using a goods type determination model, and then uses a goods storage adaptation model to adapt the goods for storage. This allows for real-time adjustment of storage locations in response to changes in goods demand, thereby facilitating the retrieval of storage boxes.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: In a first aspect, the present invention provides a dynamic intelligent storage method for cargo locations based on the Internet of Things, comprising the following specific steps: Step 1: Based on the internal layout of the storage warehouse, divide it into different types of storage warehouses, and plan the corresponding temporary shelves and regular shelves in each type of storage warehouse. Step 2: Capture all historical purchase volume data, sales volume data, and sales frequency data of goods, as well as their basic attribute data. Then, based on the goods type determination model, determine whether the goods are high-frequency or regular types of goods, and establish a historical information database of goods. Step 3: Read and identify the basic attributes of the newly arrived goods in the storage warehouse, transmit the basic attributes of the goods to the back-end terminal, and compare the basic attributes of the goods with the historical information database of the goods to determine whether the goods are regular or high-frequency goods. Step 4: Based on the results of determining whether the goods are regular or high-frequency goods in Step 3, and according to the goods storage adaptation model, determine whether regular goods are placed on regular shelves in the corresponding type of storage warehouse, and whether high-frequency goods are placed on temporary shelves in the corresponding type of storage warehouse.

[0007] Preferably, the specific content of the cargo type determination model is as follows: Set the switching threshold between high-frequency goods and regular goods as Z. Capture the inbound volume, outbound volume, and outbound frequency data of goods within time T, and record the inbound volume as A, the outbound volume as B, and the outbound frequency as C. Then, substitute them into the judgment formula to obtain the judgment factor S. Then compare the value of S with Z. When S is less than or equal to Z, the goods are regular goods. When S is greater than Z, the goods are high-frequency goods.

[0008] Preferably, the determination formula is: S = α*A + β*B + γ*C, where α ranges from 0.3 to 0.4, β ranges from 0.5 to 0.6, and γ ranges from 0.8 to 1.

[0009] Preferably, the cargo storage adaptation model contains the following specific details: In different types of storage warehouses, temporary shelves No. 1, No. 2, and No. 3 are set up in order of distance from the warehouse entrance, from closest to furthest. Regular shelves No. 1, No. 2, and No. 3 are also set up. Then, based on the decision factor S for selecting all goods, the goods are prioritized from largest to smallest. For high-frequency goods, storage locations in temporary shelves No. 1, No. 2, or No. 3 are selected first. For regular goods, storage locations in regular shelves No. 1, No. 2, or No. 3 are selected first.

[0010] Preferably, in step two, the goods type determination model determines whether the goods are high-frequency or regular goods, and updates the data automatically every t time interval. The unit of t can be a day, a week, or something else. After each t time interval, the backend terminal re-captures all historical purchase volume data, sales volume data, sales frequency data, and basic attribute data of the goods, and then determines whether the goods are high-frequency or regular goods based on the goods type determination model, and updates the goods history information database. When the goods are determined to be high-frequency goods, if the goods were already high-frequency goods before this determination, they are still stored on the temporary shelf. If the goods were regular goods before this determination, the goods storage adaptation model determines that the high-frequency goods are placed on the temporary shelf in the corresponding type of storage warehouse. When the goods are determined to be regular goods, if the goods were already high-frequency goods before this determination, the goods storage adaptation model determines that the regular goods are placed on the regular shelf in the corresponding type of storage warehouse. If the goods were already regular goods before this determination, they are still stored on the regular shelf.

[0011] Preferably, once the storage location of the goods located on the temporary shelf has been planned, the location of the goods will not change as long as the determination factor S is still greater than the switching threshold Z between high-frequency type goods and regular type goods.

[0012] Preferably, the different types of storage warehouses in step one specifically include constant temperature storage warehouses, low temperature storage warehouses, high temperature storage warehouses, and refrigerated and frozen storage warehouses. Temporary shelves and regular shelves are then set up in each of these different types of storage warehouses, with the temporary shelves located near the warehouse entrance.

[0013] Preferably, the basic information of the goods includes the model, quantity, specifications, storage conditions and shelf life of the goods.

[0014] Preferably, once the storage location of the goods located on the regular shelf has been planned, the location of the goods will not change as long as the determination factor S is still less than or equal to the switching threshold Z between high-frequency type goods and regular type goods.

[0015] Secondly, the present invention provides an IoT-based dynamic storage system for intelligent cargo locations, which implements the IoT-based dynamic storage method as described above. The system includes: The data acquisition module is used to collect environmental parameters within the storage warehouse, as well as the location and status of the goods. The transmission module transmits the information data collected by the data acquisition module using wired or wireless communication. The analysis and processing module is used to analyze and process the information data transmitted from the transmission module, store the information data, establish a warehouse information database and a cargo information database, and issue delivery instructions. The conveying module sends conveying instructions through the processing module to transport goods to the designated location.

[0016] The technical effects and advantages of this invention are as follows: By capturing historical purchase volume, sales volume, and sales frequency data for all goods, and then inputting them into the goods type determination model, it is possible to determine which goods are high-frequency goods and which are regular goods. A goods history information database is also established. When new goods arrive at the storage warehouse, after reading and identifying them, the back-end terminal determines whether the goods are regular or high-frequency goods. According to the goods storage adaptation model, high-frequency goods are stored in temporary shelves, and regular goods are stored in regular shelves. The goods type determination model is dynamically updated using an updatable goods history information database, so as to dynamically store goods based on their purchase volume, sales volume, and sales frequency, thereby facilitating storage or retrieval. By updating the cargo history information database in real time, the cargo in the storage warehouse is dynamically determined based on the cargo type determination model, thereby dynamically storing the cargo and facilitating its later storage or retrieval.

[0017] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the dynamic intelligent storage method for cargo locations based on the Internet of Things according to the present invention.

[0018] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the IoT-based dynamic cargo location intelligent storage system of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0019] 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.

[0020] This invention provides, for example Figure 1-2 The IoT-based dynamic storage method for warehouse locations, as shown, includes the following specific steps: Step 1: Based on the internal layout of the storage warehouse, divide it into different types of storage warehouses, and plan the corresponding temporary shelves and regular shelves in each type of storage warehouse. Step 2: Capture all historical purchase volume data, sales volume data, and sales frequency data of goods, as well as their basic attribute data. Then, based on the goods type determination model, determine whether the goods are high-frequency or regular types of goods, and establish a historical information database of goods. Step 3: Read and identify the basic attributes of the newly arrived goods in the storage warehouse, transmit the basic attributes of the goods to the back-end terminal, and compare the basic attributes of the goods with the historical information database of the goods to determine whether the goods are regular or high-frequency goods. Step 4: Combining the results of Step 3 in determining whether goods are regular or high-frequency, and based on the goods storage adaptation model, regular goods are placed on regular shelves in the corresponding type of storage warehouse, while high-frequency goods are placed on temporary shelves in the corresponding type of storage warehouse. Different types of storage warehouses are pre-established according to the warehouse layout. Corresponding historical shelves and regular shelves are then created in each type of storage warehouse. Historical inbound, outbound, and outbound frequency data for all goods are captured and input into the goods type determination model to determine which goods are high-frequency and which are regular. A goods history information database is established. When new goods arrive at the storage warehouse, after reading and identification, the backend terminal determines whether the goods are regular or high-frequency. Based on the goods storage adaptation model, high-frequency goods are stored on temporary shelves, and regular goods are stored on regular shelves. The updatable goods history information database allows the goods type determination model to be dynamically updated, thus dynamically storing goods based on their inbound, outbound, and outbound frequencies for easy storage or retrieval.

[0021] Furthermore, the specific details of the cargo type determination model are as follows: A switching threshold Z is set between high-frequency cargo and regular cargo. The model captures the cargo's inbound volume, outbound volume, and outbound frequency data within a time period T. Inbound volume is recorded as A, outbound volume as B, and outbound frequency as C. These data are then substituted into the determination formula to obtain the determination factor S. S is then compared with Z. When S is less than or equal to Z, the cargo is considered a regular cargo; when S is greater than Z, the cargo is considered a high-frequency cargo. The determination formula is: S = α*A + β*B + γ*C, where α ranges from 0.3 to 0.4, β ranges from 0.5 to 0.6, and γ ranges from 0.8~1; The specific content of the cargo storage adaptation model is as follows: In different types of storage warehouses, temporary shelves No. 1, No. 2, and No. 3 are set up in order of distance from the warehouse entrance, from closest to furthest. Then, based on the decision factor S for all selected goods, the goods are prioritized from largest to smallest. For high-frequency goods, storage locations are selected first from temporary shelves No. 1, No. 2, or No. 3. For regular goods, storage locations are selected first from regular shelves No. 1. The storage location is on the shelf, or on the second or third regular shelf. Here, goods J, K, and L are identified. Then, the historical purchase volume, sales volume, and sales frequency data for each of goods J, K, and L are retrieved. Specifically, the purchase volume for goods J is set to A1, the sales volume to B1, and the sales frequency to C1; the purchase volume for goods K is set to A2, the sales volume to B2, and the sales frequency to C2; and the purchase volume for goods L is set to A3, the sales volume to B3, and the sales frequency to C3. Then, A1, B1, C1 and A2, B2, C2... Substituting A3, B3, and C3 into the judgment formula, we obtain the judgment factor S1 = α*A1 + β*B1 + γ*C1 for goods J, S2 = α*A2 + β*B2 + γ*C2 for goods K, and S3 = α*A3 + β*B3 + γ*C3 for goods L. When S1, S2, and S3 are all greater than Z, they are all judged as high-frequency goods. Then, they are prioritized according to their values ​​from largest to smallest. The priority order is set as S1, S2, and S3. Goods J are then prioritized for temporary shelf number one or temporary shelf number two. The system prioritizes finding a storage location on temporary shelf number 1 or 3, followed by goods K and L. If S1, S2, and S3 are all less than or equal to Z, they are considered regular goods. In this case, they are prioritized according to their values ​​from largest to smallest, set as S1, S2, and S3. Goods J are then prioritized for storage on regular shelf number 1, 2, or 3, followed by goods K and L. In practice, the number of temporary and regular shelves can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0022] Furthermore, in step two, based on the cargo type determination model, the system determines whether the cargo is a high-frequency or regular type. This is then automatically updated every t time interval, where t can be a day, week, or other unit. Each time interval t, the backend terminal re-captures all historical cargo purchase volume data, shipment volume data, shipment frequency data, and basic cargo attribute data. Based on the cargo type determination model again, it determines whether the cargo is a high-frequency or regular type and updates the cargo history information database. If the cargo is determined to be a high-frequency type, and if the cargo was already a high-frequency type before this determination, it remains stored on the temporary shelf. If the cargo is a high-frequency type in this determination... Previously, goods were classified as regular items. Based on the goods storage adaptation model, these high-frequency items were placed on temporary shelves in the corresponding type of storage warehouse. If the goods were already classified as high-frequency items before this determination, they were placed on regular shelves in the corresponding type of storage warehouse. If they were already classified as regular items before this determination, they remained on regular shelves. By updating the historical goods information database in real time, the goods in the storage warehouse are dynamically determined based on the goods type determination model, thus enabling dynamic storage and facilitating later storage or retrieval.

[0023] Furthermore, once the storage location of goods located on temporary shelves has been planned, the location of the goods will not change as long as the decision factor S is still greater than the switching threshold Z between high-frequency goods and regular goods; this avoids frequent changes in the storage location of high-frequency goods, which could lead to storage chaos and increased workload.

[0024] Furthermore, in step one, the different types of storage warehouses specifically include temperature-controlled storage warehouses, low-temperature storage warehouses, high-temperature storage warehouses, and refrigerated / frozen storage warehouses. Temporary shelves and regular shelves are installed in each of these different types of storage warehouses, with the temporary shelves located near the warehouse entrance. The basic information of the goods includes the model, quantity, specifications, storage conditions, and shelf life. This allows for the selection of the appropriate type of storage warehouse based on the basic attributes of the goods, thus facilitating storage.

[0025] Furthermore, once the storage location of goods located on regular shelves has been planned, the location of the goods will not change as long as the decision factor S is still less than or equal to the switching threshold Z between high-frequency goods and regular goods; this avoids frequent changes in the storage location of regular goods, which could lead to storage chaos and increased workload.

[0026] The IoT-based dynamic storage system implements the aforementioned IoT-based dynamic storage method. The system includes: The data acquisition module is used to collect environmental parameters within the storage warehouse, as well as the location and status of the goods. The transmission module transmits the information data collected by the data acquisition module using wired or wireless communication. The analysis and processing module is used to analyze and process the information data transmitted from the transmission module, store the information data, establish a warehouse information database and a cargo information database, and issue delivery instructions. The conveying module sends conveying instructions through the processing module to transport goods to the designated location.

[0027] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
