Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of container logistics and warehousing, and in particular to a dual-warehouse layout system and method based on a shared container loading and unloading area. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, container loading and unloading warehouses are key facilities in the logistics supply chain, primarily used for loading (packing bulk cargo into containers) and unloading (unloading cargo from containers). These warehouses are typically located near ports, logistics parks, or transportation hubs, serving as core nodes connecting transportation and warehousing.

[0003] Current container loading and unloading warehouses typically have loading and unloading platforms at the front of the warehouse, as well as truck parking areas, reversing areas, and driving lanes. Trucks reverse and park in front of the warehouse platform, and then goods are transferred between the warehouse and containers by manual labor or forklifts.

[0004] This method has many limitations in terms of site requirements, truck utilization efficiency, and loading / unloading flexibility, making it difficult to meet the needs of modern logistics. 1. The container loading and unloading area at one end of the container loading and unloading warehouse includes a platform area, a truck parking area, a reversing area, and a driving lane. These areas require a large amount of space. The cargo exchange space between each loading and unloading warehouse and the trucks occupies a depth of approximately 27m to 33m, consuming valuable space resources.

[0005] Second, currently, once a container truck stops at the platform with a container for loading and unloading operations, the truck trailer generally does not leave the parking area until the operation is completed. This results in an ineffective waste of container truck resources. If the container truck needs to leave earlier, the logistics system needs to provide additional container racks and use other loading and unloading equipment to transfer and move the containers on the truck.

[0006] Third, there is currently a one-to-one correspondence between the container loading / unloading warehouses and the container loading / unloading tasks for target cargo. Once there are situations where the same container has loading / unloading tasks with multiple warehouses, it is necessary to organize multiple transfers of trucks to the target warehouse, which increases the complexity and time of vehicle scheduling.

[0007] Fourth, the current multi-level container warehouse requires the construction of ramps for trucks to move up and down the floors, which consumes valuable site resources.

[0008] In view of this, the inventors of this application have designed a dual-warehouse layout system and method based on a shared container cargo loading and unloading area in order to overcome the above-mentioned technical problems. Summary of the Invention

[0009] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, such as high site requirements for container loading and unloading, low efficiency of truck use, and poor flexibility in loading and unloading, and to provide a dual-warehouse layout system and method based on a shared container cargo loading and unloading area.

[0041] To make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0042] Embodiments of the invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, examples of which are shown in the drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numerals will be used in all the drawings to denote the same or similar parts.

[0043] Furthermore, although the terminology used in this invention is selected from commonly known and used terms, some terms mentioned in this specification may have been selected by the applicant in his or her judgment, and their detailed meanings are explained in the relevant sections of the description herein.

[0044] Furthermore, the invention should be understood not only through the actual terminology used, but also through the meaning implied by each term.

[0045] Example 1: like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this invention discloses a dual-warehouse layout system based on a shared container loading / unloading area, including at least one dual-warehouse area T1. Each dual-warehouse area T1 includes at least one layer of dual-warehouse units T2, and each layer of dual-warehouse units T2 includes: a container loading / unloading area 10, at least two loading / unloading warehouses 20, at least two standby operation areas 30, and at least two container stacking areas 40. The container loading / unloading area 10 is used for loading or unloading containerized goods. The loading / unloading warehouses 20 are arranged face-to-face on both sides of the length of the container loading / unloading area 10, and are used for the storage and distribution of containerized goods, sharing the container loading / unloading area 10. Driving lanes 50 are provided on both sides of the width of the container loading / unloading area 10, and truck loading / unloading positions 51 are provided on the driving lanes 50 for loading and unloading between containers and trucks. The truck loading / unloading positions 51 and the container loading / unloading area 10 are spaced apart to form a handling channel 52 for container entry and exit. Here, "mutual separation" means that the truck loading and unloading position 51 and the container cargo loading and unloading area 10 are not connected, and a handling channel 52 is formed between the two.

[0046] The standby operation areas 30 are located outside the corresponding container loading / unloading warehouses, for facilitating operations with other types of cargo vehicles. In the aforementioned dual-warehouse combination, the container loading / unloading warehouse 20 can have separate standby operation areas 30 at its non-container loading / unloading area end, providing parking for other types of box trucks, flatbed trucks, and other cargo transport vehicles, or for emergency parking of container trucks. The standby operation area 30 may include infrastructure such as a platform area, truck parking area, and reversing area.

[0047] The container cargo loading and unloading area 10 preferably includes a platform area 12 and a container loading and unloading parking area, forming a double warehouse structure with loading and unloading warehouses 20 at both ends and a shared container cargo loading and unloading area 10 in the middle. Here, the shared container cargo loading and unloading area does not include a truck reversing area and a driving lane.

[0048] The container loading / unloading area is equipped with multiple container parking spaces 11. The containers on these parking spaces 11 can have their doors facing a specific loading / unloading bay 20 within the two warehouses, depending on the inbound and outbound cargo situation. The door orientation can be pre-determined based on inbound / outbound traffic flow, with trucks selectively entering specific truck loading / unloading bays at a particular end of the loading / unloading area. The overhead crane 60 then moves the containers between the truck loading / unloading bay 51 and the container parking space 11. The door orientation can also be adjusted horizontally using a rotating trolley with the crane 60's built-in door adjustment mechanism.

[0049] Furthermore, a platform area 12 surrounds the container loading and unloading parking area. The platform area serves as a passageway, working space, and temporary storage point for personnel and equipment such as forklifts during container loading and unloading operations. At the same time, the platform area 12 directly connects to two independent warehouses on the same floor of the dual-warehouse structure, supporting centralized sorting of containerized goods from adjacent warehouses and rapid same-floor transfer of goods between warehouses.

[0050] The container stacking area 40 is located on the outer side of the container cargo loading and unloading area 10 and the container handling aisle, and is used for stacking containers. A driving aisle 50 is provided between the container stacking area 40 and the container cargo loading and unloading area 10, and a truck loading and unloading position 51 is provided on the driving aisle 50.

[0051] Preferably, the driving lane 50 and the container loading / unloading area 10 are arranged in an "I" shape, with the corresponding truck loading / unloading positions 51 arranged adjacent to the driving lane 50, forming loading and unloading operation points for entering and exiting the container loading / unloading area 10 in opposite directions. In this way, trucks used to transport containers do not enter the container loading / unloading area 10, but drive into the truck loading / unloading positions 51 to perform container loading and unloading operations, without the need to reverse into the warehouse.

[0052] The container is moved along the transport aisle 52 between the container loading / unloading area 10 and the truck loading / unloading position 51 using a bridge crane 60. The bridge crane 60 is capable of moving the container horizontally, laterally, and vertically, and can also rotate the container horizontally as needed. For example, multiple support columns 70 are installed along the transport aisle 52 between the container loading / unloading area 10 and the truck loading / unloading position 51, with rail beams 80 laid on the support columns 70. The bridge crane 60 is positioned on the rail beams 80 and moves along them.

[0053] The bridge crane 60 is placed on a dedicated track beam 80 to enable the trolley to move in the working area. The dedicated track beam 80 is laid on the support columns 70 facing the container loading and unloading area 10 of the two warehouses (two container loading and unloading warehouses 20). The portion of the bridge crane 60 that extends beyond the container loading and unloading area 10 can be covered by extending the support columns 70 and track beam 80.

[0054] Preferably, the empty space below the moving range of the bridge crane 60 can be used to set up a container stacking area 40 for buffer stacking between container loading / unloading operations and container truck loading / unloading operations.

[0055] The dual-warehouse layout system based on the shared container loading and unloading area enables the sharing and utilization of infrastructure such as personnel, equipment, work areas, and stacking areas in the dual-warehouse layout process. This allows each pair of dual warehouses (i.e., two container loading and unloading warehouses 20) to be concentrated in a compact area, forming a unified operating platform, reducing resource waste and improving operational coordination.

[0056] Example 2: like Figures 6 to 12 As shown, the structure of this embodiment is basically the same as that of Embodiment 1, except that each double-warehouse area T1 includes multiple layers of the aforementioned double-warehouse units T2, which are stacked vertically. At least one area of ​​the container loading / unloading area 10 located in the bottom double-warehouse unit T2 is designated as the bottom pre-processing warehouse 100. For example, a section in the middle of the container loading / unloading area 10 is designated as the bottom pre-processing warehouse 100.

[0057] The planar functionality of the dual-library layout system in this embodiment has been expanded to a three-dimensional function based on requirements, changing from the original single-layer structure (such as...) Figure 1 Extended applications to a two-layer structure (such as...) Figure 6 (As shown) or a multi-layered structure. This allows for increased storage capacity and working area within limited resources, further enhancing the flexibility and adaptability of logistics warehouses.

[0058] Example 3: likeFigures 13 to 17 As shown, the structure of this embodiment is basically the same as that of Embodiment 2, except that the dual-warehouse layout system further includes multiple dual-warehouse areas T1, with adjacent dual-warehouse areas T1 connected in series. Each dual-warehouse area T1 includes multiple layers of dual-warehouse units T2, which are stacked vertically. At least one area of ​​the container loading / unloading area 10 located in the bottom dual-warehouse unit T2 is designated as the bottom pre-processing warehouse 100. For example, a section in the middle of the container loading / unloading area 10 can be designated as the bottom pre-processing warehouse 100.

[0059] The dual-warehouse arrangement system described in this embodiment, along with its extended applications, can be configured into a series dual-warehouse system by combining multiple sets of dual warehouses with the bridge crane rail as the axis (e.g., ...). Figure 14 (As shown). The tandem dual-warehouse process can also share infrastructure such as bridge cranes, container stacking areas, and truck loading and unloading positions, thus forming a cross-warehouse integrated operation platform, making it more suitable for medium and large-scale integrated logistics warehousing centers.

[0060] Based on the descriptions of Embodiments 1 to 3 above, the dual-warehouse layout system of the present invention, based on a shared container cargo loading and unloading area, can achieve the following advantages: I. Information Management: The dual-warehouse layout system allows for unified scheduling, integrating order data through WMS (Warehouse Management System) and TMS (Transportation Management System) to allocate platform windows and work priorities in real time. Simultaneously, it enables IoT monitoring, utilizing RFID and cameras to monitor cargo location and work progress, ensuring accurate cargo distribution between warehouses.

[0061] II. Zero-Carbon Energy System: The dual-warehouse layout system can utilize renewable energy sources, such as rooftop photovoltaic and wind power facilities, or purchase green electricity (e.g., integrated wind-solar-storage systems), to cover the warehouse's power needs. The dual-warehouse layout system can also employ energy storage and smart grids, for example, combining energy storage batteries and hydrogen storage systems to balance energy fluctuations. Furthermore, smart grids can be used to optimize electricity usage periods and reduce energy costs. The dual-warehouse layout system also utilizes electrified equipment, such as electric forklifts, AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles), and electric lifting platforms, to replace traditional fuel-powered equipment.

[0062] This invention also provides a method for adjusting container doors based on a shared container loading and unloading area, which adopts the dual-warehouse layout system based on the shared container loading and unloading area as described above. The method for adjusting container doors includes: In the double-opening layout system, the driving lane 52 and the container loading / unloading area 10 are arranged in an "I" shape. The truck loading / unloading position 51 is adjacent to the driving lane 52, forming loading and unloading operation points for entering and exiting the container loading / unloading area 10 in opposite directions. A bridge crane 60 is used to move containers on the handling lane 52 between the container loading / unloading area 10 and the truck loading / unloading position 51.

[0063] The container door adjustment method, through the cooperation of the truck loading / unloading position and the bridge crane, adjusts the container door direction to face the target warehouse in the container loading / unloading area. Specifically, the container loading / unloading parking area has multiple container parking positions 11. The containers on the container parking positions 11 can flexibly determine the direction of the container door towards a specific loading / unloading warehouse 20 in the two warehouses based on the inbound and outbound traffic situation. The door direction can be predetermined by the trucks selectively driving into a specific truck loading / unloading position at a certain end of the loading / unloading area according to the traffic flow, and then the bridge crane 60 moves the container between the truck loading / unloading position 51 and the container parking position 11. The door direction can also be adjusted horizontally using a rotating trolley on the bridge crane 60's built-in adjustment door.

[0064] like Figure 18 As shown, the present invention also discloses a method for unpacking containers based on a shared container loading and unloading area, which adopts a dual-warehouse layout system based on a shared container loading and unloading area as described above (e.g., the dual-warehouse layout system in Embodiments 1 to 3), including the following steps: Step S1, Truck docking: The task container obtains the corresponding loading and unloading warehouse 20 and the corresponding truck loading and unloading position 51 through the scheduling and management system. The truck with the container docks at the corresponding truck loading and unloading position 51 according to the assigned loading and unloading operation point.

[0065] Here, the task container refers to a container whose operational tasks are arranged in sequence through a scheduling and management system.

[0066] Step S2, Container entry: The bridge crane 60 located above the container loading and unloading area 10 moves to the top of the truck loading and unloading position 51, grabs the task container from the truck, and then, according to the allocation of the dispatch management system, moves the container into the designated container parking position 11 in the container loading and unloading parking area, thus completing the container entry action.

[0067] Step S3: The container truck that has completed the unloading task leaves the container truck loading and unloading position 51 and continues to obtain the next task.

[0068] Step S4, Unpacking Container Cargo: After the platform staff completes the inspection of the task container in container parking space 11, they open the container door and connect the loading and unloading bridge. Then, the cargo inside the container is unpacked and unloaded manually or by equipment (such as forklifts), and then sorted, inspected, and temporarily stored in preparation for subsequent delivery or warehousing.

[0069] Step S5: Storage or distribution of containerized cargo: The unpacked cargo is assigned to the next process according to the task arrangement of the dispatch management system. For example, it may be sent to the corresponding warehouse rack for storage using forklifts, lifting platforms, or other operating equipment, or it may be distributed to other task containers for consolidation, or it may be arranged to other trucks for logistics distribution in the next process.

[0070] Step S6, Empty Container Transfer: Empty containers that have completed the unpacking task are transferred to subsequent tasks according to the scheduling and management system. For example, after the empty containers that have completed the unpacking task at container parking space 11 are inspected and found to be normal by the platform staff, they can be put into the next loading task, or they can be moved by the bridge crane 60 to the truck loading and unloading space 51 for transport, or they can be moved to the container stacking area 40 for storage for the next task.

[0071] like Figure 19 As shown, the present invention also provides a loading method based on a shared container cargo loading and unloading area, which adopts a dual-warehouse layout system based on a shared container cargo loading and unloading area as described above (e.g., the dual-warehouse layout system in Embodiments 1 to 3), including the following steps: Step S1: Empty Container Transfer: The empty container is moved to the container parking position in the container loading and unloading area by a bridge crane, and the empty container transfer process is completed.

[0072] According to the scheduling and management system, the empty containers are transported by external trucks 200 to the corresponding truck loading and unloading position 51, or directly unloaded from the corresponding container stacking area 40, or are empty containers transferred from the previous task, and are moved by bridge cranes 60 to the target container parking position 11 in the container cargo loading and unloading area 10. The platform staff open the container door, connect the loading and unloading bridge, check and clean the empty container, and complete the empty container transfer process.

[0073] Step S2: Prepare for packing: Based on the outbound list provided by the dispatch management system, complete the pre-packing preparations for the outbound goods.

[0074] Based on the outbound list provided by the dispatch management system, warehouse staff use forklifts, lifting platforms, and other operating equipment to remove outbound goods from the corresponding warehouse shelves, or directly unpack consolidated goods from the previous task's unpacked containers, and move them to the platform area near the task container. Platform staff then sort and inspect the goods to complete the pre-packing preparations.

[0075] Step S3: Container loading: According to the loading list provided by the dispatch management system, load the inspected and sorted goods into the container to complete the loading process.

[0076] According to the packing list provided by the dispatch management system, the platform staff load the inspected and sorted goods into containers by hand or with forklifts and other equipment, count and reinforce them, remove the loading and unloading bridges, close the container doors, verify the lead seals, and complete the packing process.

[0077] Step S4, Container Outbound: The dispatch management system allocates empty container trucks 200 to the corresponding container loading and unloading positions 51. The bridge crane 60 on the upper part of the container loading and unloading area 10 moves to the container parking position 11, grabs the task container, and then, according to the arrangement of the dispatch management system, moves the container to the container truck 200 at the corresponding container loading and unloading position 51 to complete the container outbound action.

[0078] Step S5, Container Temporary Storage: The bridge crane will move containers that have completed the loading process but have not yet been assigned a shipping task from the container parking position and place them in the corresponding container stacking area for temporary storage, waiting for the dispatch management system to arrange for shipping.

[0079] To free up workstations, containers that have completed the packing process but have not yet been assigned a shipping task can be moved from container parking position 11 by bridge crane 60 and placed in the corresponding container stacking area 40 for temporary storage, waiting for the dispatch management system to arrange for shipping.

[0080] Furthermore, in the dual-warehouse layout system based on the shared container cargo loading and unloading area of ​​this invention, the loading process of the standby operation area 30 is as follows: the cargo vehicle (such as a box truck, flatbed truck, container truck, etc.) reverses and stops in front of the corresponding standby operation area 30 through the park road. The platform staff inspects the container, opens the container door, connects the loading and unloading bridge, and unloads, sorts, inspects and temporarily stores the goods in the container by manual labor or forklifts and other equipment. The goods are then stored in the warehouse or transferred and distributed according to the unloading list, and finally the truck leaves.

[0081] The unpacking process in the standby work area 30 is as follows: Empty trucks (such as box trucks, flatbed trucks, container trucks, etc.) reverse and park in front of the corresponding standby work area 30 platform through the park road. Platform staff inspect the containers, open the container doors, and connect the loading and unloading bridges. Using manual labor or forklifts and other equipment, the goods from the warehouse or other sources are sorted, inspected, and packed according to the loading list. Finally, the trucks drive away.

[0082] In addition to the above-mentioned unpacking and packing processes in the container cargo loading and unloading area and the standby operation area, various other processes can be varied according to actual production needs. These will not be listed here, but they are all based on the dual-warehouse layout system of the shared container cargo loading and unloading area of ​​this invention. All unpacking and packing processes are within the protection scope of this application.

[0083] In summary, the present invention, based on a dual-warehouse layout system and method for shared container loading and unloading areas, optimizes loading and unloading operations within a limited space, reduces truck waiting time, and allows for flexible task allocation between the loading / unloading area and the warehouse. The dual-warehouse layout system optimizes warehouse layout and logistics efficiency, effectively reducing resource waste and improving operational collaboration through shared infrastructure.
