Detailed Implementation

[0045] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.

[0046] Please see the appendix Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 This application proposes a multi-channel warehouse B2C order picking system, including a multi-channel warehouse 100, a two-layer conveyor line 200, a single-layer conveyor line 300, a screw conveyor 400, and several mobile sorting walls 500. The multi-channel warehouse 100, also known as a multi-level shuttle automated warehouse, is a highly efficient and densely packed automated storage system with two levels of entrances and exits. It achieves rapid storage and retrieval of goods by using shuttle vehicles running on the tracks of each shelf level. Goods generally include packaged turnover boxes, baskets containing various products, and finished product boxes containing the target product.

[0047] The second-layer conveyor line 200 includes a first incoming line 210, several unpacking stations, a first outgoing line 220, a second outgoing line 230, several packaging verification stations 240, weighing and barcode scanning stations 250, and a second-layer exception handling station 260. The entrance of the first incoming line 210 connects to the second-layer entrance / exit of the multi-passage warehouse 100. Several unpacking stations are spaced apart on the first incoming line 210, and computer displays are installed at the unpacking stations to display order information. The exit of the first outgoing line 220 connects to the second-layer entrance / exit of the multi-passage warehouse 100, and any one of the unpacking stations connects to the first outgoing line 220. The exits of the second outgoing lines 230 connect to the multi-passage warehouse 100. The second-floor entrance and exit and the entrance of the spiral elevator 400; several packing verification stations 240 are arranged at intervals on the second unloading line 230, and several mobile seeding walls 500 correspond one-to-one with several unpacking stations and several packing verification stations 240; the weighing and scanning station 250 is located downstream of several packing verification stations 240 and arranged on the second unloading line 230. The weighing and scanning station 250 is equipped with a dynamic weighing scale and a barcode scanner to weigh the finished boxes, scan the product codes, and verify order information; the second-floor abnormality handling station 260 is connected to the weighing and scanning station 250 and the upstream of the first incoming material branch line 211 in the first incoming material line 210.

[0048] In one specific embodiment, the first incoming material line 210, the first outgoing material line 220, and the second outgoing material line 310 are all straight lines and parallel to each other. The first incoming material line 210 is located between the first outgoing material line 220 and the second outgoing material line 310. The outlet end of the second outgoing material line 230 is respectively configured with a first outgoing material branch line 231 and a second outgoing material branch line 232. The outlet of the first outgoing material branch line 231 is connected to the first incoming material line 210, and the outlet of the second outgoing material branch line 232 is connected to the inlet of the screw conveyor 400.

[0049] In use, the material basket enters the first receiving line 210 from the multi-pass warehouse 100 and is then conveyed to the unpacking station. Workers, following the order system prompts, remove the corresponding product from the basket and place it into the corresponding compartment of the mobile seeding wall 500. The basket then returns to the first unloading line 220 and is temporarily stored in the multi-pass warehouse 100. Once all orders in the mobile seeding wall 500 have been seeded, the mobile seeding wall 500 is manually pushed to the packaging and verification station 240 to package and label the ordered products. The packaged finished products... The boxes are placed into the second material handling line 230, completing the picking of orders on the entire mobile seeding wall 500. After the finished boxes are conveyed to the weighing and barcode scanning station 250 for weighing and product barcode scanning, there are three flow directions. If the product information does not match the order information, it will be transferred to the second-floor abnormality handling station 260 for manual unpacking and verification before being put back onto the first material receiving line 210. If the product information is correct, the finished boxes will be lowered to the first floor by the screw conveyor 400 for direct shipment or re-enter the multi-passage warehouse 100 for temporary storage and waiting for shipment.

[0050] The first-level conveyor line 300 includes a third unloading line 310, an information verification station 320, several sorting stations 330, several shipping stations 340, a first-level exception handling station 350, and a replenishment station 360. The entrance of the third unloading line 310 is connected to the first-level entrance / exit of the multi-passage warehouse 100 and the exit of the screw conveyor 400. The information verification station 320 is located on the third unloading line 310. Several sorting stations 330 are located downstream of the information verification station 320 and are spaced apart on the third unloading line 310. Several shipping stations 340 are connected to several sorting stations 330. The first-level exception handling station 350 is located at the exit of the third unloading line 310. The replenishment station 360 is connected to the entrance of the third unloading line 310.

[0051] In one specific embodiment, the third discharge line 310 is parallel to the first feed line 210, and the outlet of the screw conveyor 400 is connected to the third discharge line 310 through the third discharge branch line 311.

[0052] In use, finished boxes are conveyed to the third material handling line 310 via a screw conveyor 400 or a multi-passage warehouse 100. At the information verification station 320, a dynamic weighing scale and a volume and barcode scanner are installed to dynamically weigh, scan the volume and barcode information of the finished boxes, and upload the information to the order system for verification. The sorting station 330 is equipped with a high-speed sorting machine, which allocates the correctly verified finished boxes to different shipping stations 340 based on system feedback. The shipping station 340 is equipped with a computer operation screen and a printer, and manual staff affix express delivery slips to the finished boxes according to the shipping requirements. If the information verification of the finished boxes at the information verification station 320 is incorrect, the boxes are transferred to the first-floor exception handling station 350 for manual processing. The replenishment station 360 can manually replenish the boxes based on the warehouse location management alarm information of the multi-passage warehouse.

[0053] In this application, the number of 330 sorting stations, the number of rapid sorting machines, the direction of diversion, the number of unpacking stations, etc., can be increased or decreased according to system requirements, thereby improving the flexibility of the system. The mobile seeding wall 500 works in conjunction with the unpacking station and the packaging verification station to complete the picking operation, which not only improves the sorting efficiency, but also reduces the time and workload of manual back-and-forth movement.

[0054] Please see the appendix Figure 1 and attached Figure 3 To provide sufficient operating space for the unpacking operation, this application further includes several branch paths. Each branch path includes a first incoming material branch line 211, a second incoming material branch line 212, and a third incoming material branch line 213, which are continuously arranged. The entrance of the first incoming material branch line 211 connects to the first incoming material line 210. The unpacking station is located at the second incoming material branch line 212. The exit of the third incoming material branch line 213 connects to the first outgoing material line 220. The material baskets are redirected by connecting the first incoming material line 210 and the first incoming material branch line 211, the first incoming material branch line 211 and the second incoming material branch line 212, the second incoming material branch line 212 and the third incoming material branch line 213, and the third incoming material branch line 213 and the first outgoing material branch line 220, respectively.

[0055] In one specific embodiment, the conveying route formed by the branch path and the first incoming material line 220 is in a U-shape; the conveying path of the material basket flows along the first incoming material line 210, the first incoming material branch line 211, the second incoming material branch line 212, the third incoming material branch line 213, and the first outgoing material line 220. The unpacking station is farther from the first outgoing material line 220 and closer to the packaging and verification station 240, and the moving distance of the mobile seeding wall 500 is shortened, saving time.

[0056] In another specific embodiment, the branch path and the conveying route formed by the first incoming material line 220 are in a figure-eight shape. Specifically, the entrance of a third incoming material branch line 213 is connected to two second incoming material branch lines 212 respectively. The conveying directions of the two second incoming material branch lines 212 are opposite, and each second incoming material branch line 212 is equipped with a first incoming material branch line 211 at its entrance. This method can reduce the number of branch lines and the floor space occupied, while also increasing the number of unpacking stations and improving the efficiency of picking individual items.

[0057] Please see the appendix Figure 4 The mobile seeding wall 500 includes: a frame 510; several trays 520 arranged at intervals from top to bottom within the frame 510, with each tray 520 arranged at an angle to the horizontal plane; several electronic tags 530 respectively disposed on the lower side of the trays 520; and several casters 540 respectively disposed at the bottom corners of the frame 510. The electronic tags 530 can be powered by batteries and used in conjunction with a wireless module to achieve long-distance wireless control. The electronic tags 530 can illuminate to remind workers of the location and quantity of products to be seeded, reducing error rates. Based on the illuminated electronic tags 530, the target product is placed into the corresponding tray 520. After all products on the mobile seeding wall 500 have been seeded, the casters 540 are used to push the frame 510 to transfer the mobile seeding wall 500 from the unpacking station to the packaging and verification station 240, completing the seeding process.

[0058] In one specific embodiment, each unpacking station is equipped with two movable seeding walls 500, which enables uninterrupted operation.

[0059] Additionally, please see the appendix. Figure 1 To facilitate the loading and unloading of goods in the multi-pass warehouse 100, this application also includes a connecting conveyor 600, a same-level elevator 700, and a cross-level elevator 800; the connecting conveyor 600 is used to connect shuttle cars within the multi-pass warehouse 100; the same-level elevator 700 is used to connect the target in the shuttle car to the second-level conveyor line 200; and the cross-level elevator 800 is used to connect shuttle cars within the multi-pass warehouse 100 to the target level. After receiving an online order, the order system initiates a multi-channel warehouse 100 to process outbound shipments based on the order details. At this time, multiple target products within an order may be scattered across multiple storage locations within the multi-channel warehouse 100. Therefore, the multi-channel warehouse 100 dispatches its internal shuttles to deliver different storage locations to the connecting conveyor 600, and then uses the same-level elevator 700 to connect the storage locations to the second-level conveyor line 200 for transfer. When the same-level shuttles are not fully loaded and shuttles from other levels need to be dispatched, the cross-level elevator 800 connects the shuttles from other levels to the required level for outbound operations.

[0060] In summary, this application utilizes a multi-passage warehouse combined with a two-layer conveyor line and a movable seeding wall to enable products to be delivered to personnel according to order requirements. Through a series of processes including unpacking, picking, packing, volume detection, and weight detection, manual picking is achieved, improving efficiency while reducing the workload of manual movement. The two-layer layout of this solution involves the second layer handling processes such as outbound warehousing, unpacking, sorting, seeding, packing, labeling, barcode scanning, and anomaly handling, while the first layer is for sorting. Products packaged on the second layer are routed according to order information, or directly outbound from the multi-passage warehouse, enabling rapid delivery.

[0061] Finally, it should be noted that the above specific embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to examples, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications and substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
