[0002] With the increasing sophistication of warehouse management, the need for real-time location tracking of equipment is becoming increasingly urgent. However, traditional warehouse management methods typically rely on manual recording of equipment locations. After relocation or borrowing, location information often fails to update promptly, leading to issues such as the system displaying the equipment as available, but it not actually being found. Furthermore, location recording is often limited to a single level, typically only recording the warehouse or shelf where the equipment is located, lacking refined location management and causing operators to spend considerable time searching for equipment.

Detailed Implementation

[0016] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and not intended to limit it. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, the accompanying drawings show only the parts relevant to the present invention, and not all of the structures.

[0017] Before discussing the exemplary embodiments in more detail, it should be noted that some exemplary embodiments are described as processes or methods depicted as flowcharts. Although the flowcharts describe the steps as sequential processes, many of these steps can be performed in parallel, concurrently, or simultaneously. Furthermore, the order of the steps can be rearranged. The process can be terminated when its operation is complete, but may also have additional steps not included in the figures. The process can correspond to a method, function, procedure, subroutine, subroutine, etc.

[0018] Example 1 Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a warehouse equipment management method provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to situations requiring real-time tracking of the location and status of warehouse equipment. This method can be executed by the warehouse equipment management device provided in this embodiment of the invention. This device can be implemented in hardware and / or software, and is generally integrated into a computer device. Figure 1 As shown, the method specifically includes the following steps: S11, Listen for warehouse operation events.

[0019] S12. Update the location information of the target equipment involved in the warehousing operation event according to the operation type of the warehousing operation event; the location information adopts a three-level positioning structure of "warehouse-shelf / tool ​​cabinet-pallet / storage location".

[0020] Specifically, warehousing operation events can include inbound operations, outbound operations, inventory counts, transfer operations, return operations, etc., and operators can execute corresponding tasks through operation terminal devices. The system can monitor the occurrence of warehousing operation events in real time. When a warehousing operation event is detected, it can automatically trigger the dynamic update of the location information of relevant target equipment using an operation-driven location update mechanism based on the operation type of the event, thus eliminating the need for manual maintenance. At the same time, the location update engine is synchronized with the operation system to ensure that the location information is updated synchronously when the operation is completed.

[0021] The location information employs a three-tiered positioning structure: "Warehouse - Shelf / Tool Cabinet - Pallet / Storage Location." This structure divides the warehouse space into three levels, with each piece of equipment associated with one of these levels. The first level is the warehouse, indicating which warehouse the equipment is stored in; the second level is the shelf / tool ​​cabinet, indicating which shelf or tool cabinet the equipment is stored on; and the third level is the pallet / storeage location, indicating which pallet / storeage location the equipment is stored in. For example, equipment number MAT-2026-001, equipment name "smart flashlight," and location information is Warehouse 1 → Shelf 3, Area A → Pallet P001. By using pallets / storeage locations as the smallest management unit and associating each piece of equipment with a specific pallet / storeage location when it is in the warehouse, the efficiency of finding items can be significantly improved. As in the example above, if anyone needs to find this equipment later, the system can directly indicate that it is "pallet P001 on shelf 3, Area A, Warehouse 1," allowing operators to quickly find the corresponding location without having to search through the warehouse.

[0022] In one optional implementation, updating the location information of the target equipment involved in the warehousing operation event according to the operation type of the warehousing operation event includes one or more of the following: if the operation type is an inbound operation, the location information of the target equipment is recorded and bound to the actual inbound pallet / location; if the operation type is an outbound operation, the location information of the target equipment is cleared and the binding with the original pallet / location is released; if the operation type is a transfer operation, the location information of the target equipment is transferred and the original bound pallet / location is replaced with the new pallet / location after the transfer; if the operation type is a return operation, the location information of the target equipment is restored and the actual return pallet / location is rebound; if the operation type is an inventory operation, the original bound pallet / location is compared with the actual inventory pallet / location, and an alarm is issued if they are inconsistent.

[0023] Specifically, for inbound operations, the recording of the target equipment's location information is automatically triggered after the inbound order is approved, the item arrives at the designated pallet, and the operator scans the pallet label (such as a barcode, QR code, or RFID) to confirm inbound. For outbound operations, the clearing of the target equipment's location information is automatically triggered after the outbound order is approved, the item is retrieved, and the operator scans the equipment label (such as a barcode, QR code, or RFID) to confirm outbound. For transfer operations, the transfer of the target equipment's location information is automatically triggered after the transfer order is approved, the item is placed on the new target pallet, and the operator scans both the original pallet label and the target pallet label to confirm transfer. For return operations, the restoration of the target equipment's location information is automatically triggered after the return order is approved, the item is returned to the designated pallet, and the operator scans the pallet label to confirm return. For inventory operations, after the inventory task is issued, when the operator arrives at the designated location and scans the equipment label for inventory verification, an alarm is automatically triggered if any discrepancies are found. An example device location information trigger update process is as follows: Figure 2 As shown.

[0024] Specifically, when target equipment is received into the warehouse, location information can be automatically assigned, or candidate locations can be provided for operator selection and confirmation. For the warehouse level, matching can be based on equipment attributes, such as automatically matching warehouses that meet the storage requirements (temperature, humidity, hazard level, etc.). Then, the target warehouse can be selected from the qualified warehouses based on location and capacity, prioritizing warehouses closest to the operation initiation point and with sufficient remaining capacity. For the shelf / tool ​​cabinet level, matching can be based on equipment category, matching preset shelf / tool ​​cabinet areas based on equipment type (e.g., fire-fighting equipment, lighting equipment). Then, the target shelf / tool ​​cabinet can be selected based on load-bearing capacity and location, prioritizing shelves with load-bearing capacity matching the equipment weight and closest to the target warehouse entrance / exit. For the pallet / storage location level, matching can be based on availability, selecting only pallets / storage locations currently available. Then, the target pallet / storage location can be selected based on size and location, prioritizing available space matching the equipment size and shelves closest to the operator's current location. Operators can select the target warehouse and target shelf / tool ​​cabinet on the work terminal device, and then select the target pallet / storage location by scanning the pallet / location label. For pallets / storage locations with damaged or no labels, manual selection can also be performed through the work terminal device. Correspondingly, basic information of pallets / storage locations can also be maintained, including pallet number, pallet name, warehouse, shelf, pallet status (idle / occupied / disabled), etc.

[0025] Based on the above technical solution, optionally, after monitoring the warehousing operation event, the method further includes: updating the status information of the target equipment according to the operation type of the warehousing operation event. The status information may include in-stock, loaned, maintenance-out, scrapped, etc. By adopting a status linkage change mechanism, the operation event automatically triggers a change in the equipment status, and this changes are matched one-to-one with the operation type, achieving automatic status tracking. This solves the problem of requiring manual maintenance of equipment status information in traditional solutions, and effectively avoids discrepancies between the system inventory and the actual inventory caused by forgetting to update the information.

[0026] In an optional implementation, updating the status information of the target equipment according to the operation type of the warehousing operation event includes one or more of the following: if the operation type is an inbound operation, the status information of the target equipment is updated to "in stock"; if the operation type is an outbound operation, the status information of the target equipment is updated to "loaned"; if the operation type is a transfer operation, the status information of the target equipment remains unchanged; if the operation type is a return operation, the status information of the target equipment is updated to "in stock"; if the operation type is a maintenance operation, the status information of the target equipment is updated to "maintenance outbound"; if the operation type is a scrapping operation, the status information of the target equipment is updated to "scrap outbound"; if the operation type is an inventory operation, the original recorded status information is compared with the actual inventory status information, and an alarm is triggered if they are inconsistent. An exemplary device status information trigger update process is as follows: Figure 3 As shown.

[0027] Based on the above technical solution, optionally, after updating the location information of the target equipment involved in the warehousing operation event according to the operation type of the warehousing operation event, the method further includes: recording the change information of the target equipment location information, wherein the change information includes at least one of the following: change time, location before change, location after change, triggering work order number, operator, and operating equipment; the method further includes: responding to a user's query request based on equipment, time, work order number, location, operator, or operating equipment, and returning the corresponding historical trajectory query results.

[0028] Specifically, each time location information is updated, the system automatically records the corresponding change information. For example, during a warehouse relocation operation, it automatically records the transfer process of equipment from the original pallet to the target pallet, thus recording the complete historical trajectory of the equipment and enabling real-time tracking of the equipment's historical location. It also provides multi-dimensional traceability functions, allowing users to query by equipment, time, work order number, location, operator, or operating equipment, and supports the visualization of traceability data, providing data support for problem tracing and process optimization. For example, querying by equipment code allows viewing the complete historical trajectory of the corresponding equipment; querying by time range allows viewing all equipment location changes that occurred within the corresponding time period; and querying by work order number allows viewing the impact of changes brought about by the corresponding operation, and so on.

[0029] Based on the above technical solution, optionally, before monitoring the warehousing operation event, the method further includes: establishing a three-level positioning model of "warehouse-shelf / tool ​​cabinet-pallet / storage location", including: creating a warehouse table and entering warehouse information; creating a shelf / tool ​​cabinet table under the created warehouse and entering shelf / tool ​​cabinet information; creating a pallet / storage location table under the created shelf / tool ​​cabinet and entering pallet / storage location information; and establishing foreign key associations sequentially for the pallet / storage location table, the shelf / tool ​​cabinet table, and the warehouse table.

[0030] Specifically, location information can be stored using structured data. For the construction of a three-level positioning model, the warehouse level can be initialized first by creating a `warehouse` table and entering warehouse information such as warehouse code (e.g., W001), warehouse name (e.g., "Warehouse No. 1"), warehouse type (ambient temperature warehouse / refrigerated warehouse / hazardous goods warehouse, etc.), warehouse capacity, and warehouse status (activated / deactivated). The warehouse code can be automatically generated using the rule "W + three-digit serial number" to ensure global uniqueness. Next, the shelf / tool ​​cabinet level can be initialized by creating a `shelf` table under the existing warehouses and entering shelf code (e.g., S001), shelf name (e.g., "Shelf No. 3 in Area A"), warehouse code, shelf location coordinates (row number, column number), shelf capacity, and shelf status. The shelf code can be automatically generated using the rule "warehouse code - S + three-digit serial number," forming a parent-child relationship with the warehouse. The shelf location coordinates are identified using a two-dimensional coordinate system (row × column) for quick retrieval by area. Next, initialize the pallet / location hierarchy. Create a pallet / location table under the existing shelves / tool ​​cabinets, and enter pallet / location information such as pallet code (e.g., P001), pallet name (e.g., "pallet P001"), shelf code, pallet size, pallet status (free / occupied / disabled), and pallet label type (barcode / QR code / RFID). The pallet code can be automatically generated using the rule "shelf code - P + three-digit serial number," forming a parent-child relationship with the shelf it belongs to. A unique label can be generated based on the pallet / location information and affixed to the surface or written into an RFID chip for on-site scanning and identification. Furthermore, foreign key relationships can be established in the database. For example, the pallet / location table can be linked to the shelf / tool ​​cabinet table via the foreign key shelf.id, and the shelf / tool ​​cabinet table can be linked to the warehouse table via the foreign key warehouse.id, thus linking location information at each level and supporting multi-level queries and statistics. When equipment is received into the warehouse, the equipment record in the `material` table can be linked to the pallet / location record via the foreign key `pallet.id` field, such as writing `material.pallet.id` to the target pallet. During a query, the complete three-level path can be obtained in one go via the SQL JOIN chain "material→pallet→shelf→warehouse", for example, "Warehouse 1→Shelf 3 in Area A→Pallet P001". During a warehouse transfer, `material.pallet.id` is updated to the new pallet / location ID, and a change record is inserted into the location history table `location_history`.

[0031] Building upon the aforementioned technical solutions, a message queue mechanism can be employed to achieve asynchronous decoupling from the job system, while simultaneously supporting a transaction mechanism to ensure consistency between location updates and job status. Specifically, Kafka can be used as the message middleware. Upon job completion, the job system publishes a JSON-formatted event message containing fields such as eventType (job type), materialId (equipment ID), targetPalletId (target pallet ID), orderNo (job order number), operator (operator), and timestamp. Then, it can route to different topics based on eventType, including location updates (topic.location.update), status changes (topic.status.change), and historical records (topic.history.record). Correspondingly, this method can use a location update consumer to listen to topic.location.update to update the pallet.id field in the material table; a status change consumer to listen to topic.status.change to automatically change the equipment status based on eventType; and a historical record consumer to listen to topic.history.record to insert change records in the location_history table. Furthermore, a "local event table + message acknowledgment" mechanism can be adopted. The job system first writes the event to the local event table, and then asynchronously sends it to the Kafka consumer. After processing, the consumer sends an ACK confirmation. If processing fails, the event is entered into a dead-letter queue for retry. In this way, the job system does not need to wait for the position and status to be updated before returning a response. Each consumer runs independently and does not affect others. A single point of failure does not affect the overall system, supporting peak shaving and valley filling in high-concurrency scenarios.

[0032] The technical solution provided by this invention monitors warehousing operation events in real time during the execution of warehousing tasks. Then, based on the operation type of the monitored warehousing operation event, it updates the location information of the target equipment involved in that event. The location information adopts a three-level positioning structure of "warehouse-shelf / tool ​​cabinet-pallet / storage location". By employing an operation-driven location update mechanism, real-time synchronization between the system location and the physical status is ensured, avoiding location information lag and effectively preventing misoperation. Simultaneously, by using pallets / storage locations as the smallest management unit, precise equipment location is achieved, significantly reducing the time spent searching for goods, thereby improving overall warehousing operation efficiency and inventory accuracy.
