Embodiment one

Fig. 3 is that a kind of layout in the mini warehouse provided in the embodiment of the present invention and carrying schematic diagram divide referring to Fig. 3 It is not provided with shelf area 301, robot running lanes 302, self-powered mobile robot 303 and work station 304.In shelf area 301 Multiple shelf are provided with, each shelf in shelf area 301 single-row can be put, for example illustrated above in Fig. 3 single-row be put Shelf；It can also be with 3 column shelf of left side and intermediate 4 column shelf in multiple row (at least two column) lay out in parallel, such as Fig. 3.In Fig. 3 Robot running lanes 302 may include: traveling subchannel L1, traveling subchannel L2, traveling subchannel L3, traveling subchannel L4, traveling subchannel L5, traveling subchannel L6, traveling subchannel L7 and traveling subchannel L8.Wherein, above-mentioned traveling subchannel It is the channel of one-way traffic, and abuts the part shelf in shelf area 301 in the one or both sides of each traveling subchannel.From driving Robot 303 can move to each shelf along direction indicated by traveling subchannel each in robot running lanes 302 The position Transport cargo rack at place.The shelf moved if necessary are the shelf (such as shelf 1 or shelf 3) against traveling subchannel When, then self-powered mobile robot 303 directly will can need the shelf moved to move work station；But move if necessary Shelf and not near traveling subchannel shelf, but be located at multiple row shelf middle goods shelf (such as shelf 2) when, need at this time The shelf moved are stopped by the shelf in outside, and self-powered mobile robot 303 directly will can not need the shelf moved to move, The shelf for being blocked in outside must be moved first to the shelf that can be just moved the needs using self-powered mobile robot 303 and moved, this When rely solely on a self-powered mobile robot 303 and cannot achieve, needing multiple self-powered mobile robots 303, cooperation just can be complete jointly At.Based on said circumstances, first, second, third pair of robot can be used in the multiple self-powered mobile robots 303 of subsequent use It distinguishes.For example, first by first to N (N is the natural number more than or equal to 1) self-powered mobile robot by the blocking goods in outside Shelf for conveying is walked and along the half-duplex channel pitch of the laps in field, then by N+1 self-powered mobile robot by target shelf carry walk and along Half-duplex channel in runs to work station and carries out processing operation appropriate, and such as in sorting scene, which be can be It gets in stocks, replenish or makes an inventory cargo etc..After operation to be processed, target shelf are carried back original by N+1 self-powered mobile robot Place, after target shelf return to original place, the blocking shelf in outside are carried go back to original place again by the 1st to N self-powered mobile robot.When So, target shelf and the position of blocking shelf also can be interchanged.

Fig. 4 is a kind of flow diagram based on the article moving method intensively stored provided in the embodiment of the present invention, The embodiment of the present invention can be applied to self-powered mobile robot and obtain the article that user needs in shelf in the intensive situation of shelf presence The case where, this method can be by being executed based on the article Filtting device intensively stored, which can use software and/or hardware Mode realize that the device can integrate in any computer equipment with network communicating function, which can Think the server for move to the article in the shelf intensively put control, is also possible to the computers such as computer and sets It is standby.

For step 401 when detecting that target shelf are blocked shelf and stop the first default channel, instruction first is from driving Robot moves the blocking shelf according to the second default channel, so that the target item on target shelf is not blocked shelf resistance It blocks；Wherein, the first default channel is that channel is moved to work station in the current location of target shelf.

In embodiments of the present invention, referring to Fig. 3, for example, for target shelf are shelf 1, when first from driving machine When the shelf 1 in 305 Transport cargo rack area 301 of device people 303 or the second self-powered mobile robot, do not have due to being located on the outside of 1 left side of shelf There is the blocking of other shelf, the first self-powered mobile robot 303 or the second self-powered mobile robot 305 can drive to 1 left side of shelf The position of side, and shelf 1 are moved out, shelf 1 are moved to work station 304 along the first default channel.First default channel Can be the current location to the channel of moving between work station of the target shelf, the current location of target shelf to work station it Between move channel and can be carried out according to the placement location of target shelf and the position of work station predetermined, machine can also be passed through Device people positions determination in real time.Illustratively, for target shelf are shelf 1, route indicated by the first default channel can Think that " shelf 1 → traveling subchannel L1 → traveling subchannel L2 → traveling subchannel L4 → traveling subchannel L6 → traveling is logical Road L7 → work station 304 ".Certainly it is above-mentioned merely illustrate illustratively moved from shelf 1 to one work station 304 it is logical Road, other shelf between each work station move channel can according to the position of the physical locations of target shelf, work station with And the direction of each traveling subchannel is determined in robot running lanes 302.

In embodiments of the present invention, referring to Fig. 3, for another example shelf 2 are by goods at this time for target shelf are shelf 2 The shelf such as frame 1, shelf 3, shelf 4 and shelf 5 stop, and cause shelf 2 to moving channel and will be hindered between work station 304 Gear, i.e., the first default channel is blocked.For this purpose, can indicate that the first self-powered mobile robot 303 will be hindered according to the second default channel The shelf of gear shelf 2 are moved, so that shelf 2 are not blocked to the channel of moving between work station 304.First driving certainly Robot 303 is specifically used for shelf being stopped to move away from home position according to the second default channel, to guarantee working as target shelf The unimpeded of channel is moved between work station in front position.Second default channel can be set according to the actual situation, such as The pitch of the laps channel carried out on self-powered mobile robot running lanes 302 along a direction.Illustratively, the second default channel institute The route of instruction can be " traveling subchannel L1 → traveling subchannel L2 → traveling subchannel L4 → traveling subchannel L5 → traveling Subchannel L1 "；Route indicated by second default channel can also be " traveling subchannel L3 → traveling subchannel L2 → traveling Channel L4 → traveling subchannel L5 → traveling subchannel L3 "；Route indicated by second default channel can also be above-mentioned example Two kinds of combinations for moving channel, no longer repeat one by one here.Certainly above-mentioned to merely illustrate one according to presetting each traveling The direction of the arrow instruction of subchannel carries out pitch of the laps in the whole field and moves channel, not another here about other second default channel One enumerates, and stops shelf not stop target shelf when the second default channel is moved as long as meeting.

In a kind of optional way of the embodiment of the present invention, it is blocked shelf when detecting by target shelf to stop first pre- If when channel, indicating that the first self-powered mobile robot moves the blocking shelf according to the second default channel, may include:

Step 401a, when detecting that target shelf are blocked shelf and stop the first default channel, the first self-powered is indicated Mobile robot is travelled to the shelf area where the blocking shelf for being located on the outside of target shelf and stopping target shelf, and will stop goods Frame is moved out from the shelf area where stopping shelf；

In the present embodiment, when moving instruction of target item is moved when receiving, it is corresponding to can detecte target item Target shelf whether be blocked shelf and stop the first default channel, that is to say, that whether is all deposited on the outside of detection target shelf Stopping article.When detecting that target shelf are blocked shelf and stop the first default channel, can indicate first from driving Robot is travelled to the shelf area where the blocking shelf for being located on the outside of target shelf and stopping target shelf, and will stop shelf It is moved out from the shelf area where stopping shelf.

Illustratively, referring to Fig. 3, it is assumed that the corresponding target shelf of target item are shelf 2, and the first default channel can be " 2 → shelf of shelf 1 → traveling subchannel L1 → traveling subchannel L2 → traveling subchannel L4 → traveling subchannel L6 → traveling Channel L7 → work station 304 ", the blocking shelf on the first above-mentioned default channel are shelf 1 at this time；First default channel is also Can be " 2 → shelf of shelf 3 → traveling subchannel L3 → traveling subchannel L2 → traveling subchannel L4 → traveling subchannel L6 → Machine travels subchannel L7 → work station 304 ", and the blocking article on the first above-mentioned default channel is shelf 3 at this time.Work as needs It when moving shelf 2, needs that first shelf 1 or shelf 3 are moved, can just guarantee logical between shelf 2 → traveling subchannel L2 Road is unimpeded, or guarantees that the channel between shelf 2 → traveling subchannel L3 is unimpeded.Based on said circumstances, when detecting 2 quilt of shelf When shelf (such as shelf 1 or shelf 3) being stopped to stop the first default channel, 303 row of the first self-powered mobile robot can be indicated It sails to the shelf area where the blocking shelf (such as shelf 1 or shelf 3) for being located at 2 outside of shelf and blocking shelf 2.First self-powered Mobile robot 303 drives to after the shelf area where stopping shelf (such as shelf 1 or shelf 3), can continue that goods will be stopped Frame (such as shelf 1 or shelf 3) is moved out from the shelf area where stopping shelf, to guarantee that shelf 2 are not blocked shelf (such as goods Frame 1 or shelf 3) stop.

Step 402b, instruction the first self-powered mobile robot according to the second default channel by the blocking shelf moved out in robot Pitch of the laps is carried out on running lanes to move.
