Detailed Description
Reference will now be made in detail to embodiments of the present application, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein like or similar reference numerals refer to the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar function throughout. The embodiments described below by referring to the drawings are exemplary only for the purpose of explaining the embodiments of the present application, and are not to be construed as limiting the embodiments of the present application.
The terms appearing in the present application are explained first below:
automated Guided Vehicle (AGV): the present invention relates to a transport vehicle equipped with an electromagnetic or optical automatic navigation device, capable of traveling along a predetermined navigation route, and having safety protection and various transfer functions. The industrial application does not need a transport vehicle of a driver, and a rechargeable storage battery is used as a power source of the transport vehicle. Generally, the traveling path and behavior can be controlled by a computer, or the traveling path can be established by using an electromagnetic rail, the electromagnetic rail is adhered to the floor, and the unmanned transport vehicle moves and acts according to the information brought by the electromagnetic rail.
Referring to fig. 1 to 3, a cargo management method according to an embodiment of the present application includes:
step 011: and generating a carrying task according to the condition of the goods produced by the front process production line S1 and the condition of the goods which can be received by the rear process production line S2, wherein the carrying task comprises a goods taking position and a target position, the goods taking position is a lower line area Q1 of the front process production line S1, and the target position comprises an upper line area Q2 and/or a storage area S3 of the rear process production line S2.
Specifically, the cargo management system 100 includes a processor 10 and a handling device 20. The production steps of some goods are divided into a plurality of steps, so that the goods can be produced only by matching a plurality of production lines, and therefore the goods are transported to the post-process production line S2 from the pre-process production line S1 by the carrying equipment 20 for on-line production. The production processes of the front process production line S1 and the rear process production line S2 are different, so that the production efficiency may be different, and the number of the goods produced by the front process production line S1 is sometimes greater than the number of the goods required by the rear process production line S2, and at this time, part of the goods produced by the front process production line S1 needs to be transported to the warehousing port Q3 of the storage area S3, so that the goods produced by the rear process production line S1 can be transferred to the storage area S3 for storage. For example, the front process line S1 produces 10 pieces of goods, while the rear process line S2 receives only 6 pieces of goods for processing. Then, at this time, 6 of the 10 pieces of goods produced by the front process line S1 need to be transported to the rear process line S2, and the remaining 4 pieces of goods need to be transported to the storage area S3 for storage.
Therefore, after the goods are produced by the front process line S1, the processor 10 determines the target position of the goods according to the quantity of the goods produced by the front process line S1 and the quantity of the goods that can be received by the rear process line S2 at this time, so as to generate the transportation task. The carrying task comprises a goods taking position and a target position, the goods taking position is an off-line area Q1 of a former process production line S1, and the target position comprises an on-line area Q2 and/or a storage area S3 of a latter process production line S2.
Step 012: the handling device 20 is controlled to move to the pick-up position to load the goods and transport the goods to the target position.
Specifically, after the transporting task is generated, the processor 10 obtains the working states of all the transporting devices 20, issues the transporting task to the transporting device 20 in the idle state, controls the transporting device 20 to move to the offline area Q1 of the previous process production line S1 to load the goods, and then transports the loaded goods to the target position.
Further, there are generally a plurality of products of the same lot produced by the previous process line S1, and the processor 10 generates the transportation tasks corresponding to the number of the products produced by the previous process line S1, based on the number of the products produced by the previous process line S1. When the transport tasks are issued to the transport devices 20, the transport devices 20 whose scheduling number corresponds to the number of the transport tasks may be selected according to the operating state of the transport devices 20, so that one transport device 20 executes one transport task; or selecting the conveying equipment 20 with the scheduling number smaller than the number of the conveying tasks, and issuing the plurality of conveying tasks to one conveying equipment 20, so that the conveying equipment 20 executes the plurality of conveying tasks in sequence.
Further, in general, when the pre-process line S1 and the post-process line S2 are used for production, a plurality of the transfer devices 20 are moved between the pre-process line S1, the post-process line S2, and the storage area S3. In order to avoid the collision of the moving paths between the transporting devices 20, after receiving the transporting task, the processor 10 calculates the optimal traveling path of the transporting device 20 according to the distance between the target position and the pick-up position and the moving path of the transporting device 20 that is moving, and controls the transporting device 20 to move according to the optimal traveling path, thereby improving the transportation efficiency of the transporting device 20.
In addition, this application is mainly used for producing the handling task and according to handling task control handling equipment 20, does not have the requirement to on-the-spot factory building and production facility. Therefore, the flexible level is high, the transformation cost is low, the device can be self-adapted to the customer site, and any transformation on site plants or production equipment is not needed. If want to implement the cargo management mode of this application in new factory building, only need to lead in several haulage equipment 20 to after leading in haulage equipment 20, in the short time alright according to on-the-spot factory building and production facility completion haulage equipment 20 targeted deployment, make haulage equipment 20 can participate in the production process of on-the-spot factory building fast, in order to replace manual work, furthest control the goods damage rate scope when reducing the cost of labor, and then bring high benefit for the customer.
According to the cargo management method, the carrying tasks for transporting the produced cargos to the post-process production line S2 or the storage area S3 are generated according to the conditions of the cargos produced by the pre-process production line S1 and the conditions of the cargos capable of being received by the post-process production line S2, and the carrying equipment 20 is controlled to complete the carrying tasks, so that the reasonability of the generated carrying tasks is improved, and the normal operation of the pre-process production line S1 and the post-process production line S2 is guaranteed.
Referring to fig. 2 to 4, in some embodiments, the goods includes a cylinder and a cylinder cover, the front process line S1 includes a cylinder production line S11 and a cylinder cover production line S12, the rear process line S2 includes a cylinder rear processing line S21 and a cylinder cover sub-packaging line S22, the cylinder production line S11 and the cylinder rear processing line S21 are used for producing the cylinder, the cylinder cover production line S12 and the cylinder cover sub-packaging line S22 are used for producing the cylinder cover, and step 011: the transportation task is generated according to the condition of the goods produced by the former process production line S1 and the condition of the goods capable of being received by the latter process production line S2, and the transportation task comprises the following steps:
step 0111: generating a carrying task according to the condition of the goods produced by the cylinder production line S11 and the condition of the goods which can be received by the cylinder post-processing line S21, wherein the goods taking position is a lower line area Q11 of the cylinder production line S11, and the target position is an upper line area Q21 or a storage area S3 of the cylinder post-processing line S21; and/or
Step 0112: and generating a carrying task according to the condition of the goods produced by the cylinder cover production line S12 and the condition of the goods which can be received by the cylinder cover split-charging line S22, wherein the goods taking position is a lower line area Q12 of the cylinder cover production line S12, and the target position is an upper line area Q22 or a storage area S3 of the cylinder cover split-charging line S22.
Specifically, the goods includes a cylinder body and a cylinder cover, and the cylinder body and the cylinder cover are separately produced, so the former process production line S1 includes a cylinder body production line S11 and a cylinder cover production line S12, the latter process production line S2 includes a cylinder body post-processing line S21 and a cylinder cover sub-packaging line S22, the cylinder body production line S11 and the cylinder body post-processing line S21 are used for producing the cylinder body, the cylinder cover production line S12 and the cylinder cover sub-packaging line S22 are used for producing the cylinder cover, and the cylinder body and the cylinder cover need to be separately transported when transporting the goods. After the goods are produced by different production lines, the processor 10 will produce corresponding carrying tasks according to the production lines and the kinds of the goods: after the cylinder production line S11 produces the cylinders, the processor 10 generates a conveying task in which the pickup position is the lower line area Q11 of the cylinder production line S11 and the target position is the upper line area Q21 of the post-cylinder processing line S21 or the storage opening Q3 of the storage area S3. Accordingly, after the cylinder heads are produced in the cylinder head production line S12, the processor 10 generates a carrying task, wherein the picking position is a lower line area Q12 of the cylinder head production line S12, and the target position is an upper line area Q22 of the cylinder head distribution line S22 or a warehousing port Q3 of the storage area S3.
Further, the inlet port Q3 includes a cylinder inlet port Q31 and a cylinder head inlet port Q32. When the cylinder warehousing port Q31 and the cylinder cover warehousing port Q32 are arranged, in order to shorten the distance between the previous process production line S1 and the corresponding warehousing port Q3 as much as possible and improve the transportation rate of goods, the warehousing port Q3 is arranged close to the offline area Q1 of the corresponding previous process production line S1, that is, the warehousing port Q31 is arranged close to the offline area Q11 of the cylinder production line S11, the cylinder cover warehousing port Q32 is arranged close to the offline area Q12 of the cylinder cover production line S12, and the first distance between the offline area Q11 of the cylinder production line S11 and the cylinder warehousing port Q31 is smaller than the second distance between the cylinder warehousing port Q31 and the offline area Q12 of the cylinder cover production line S12, and the third distance between the cylinder cover warehousing port Q32 and the offline area Q12 of the cylinder cover production line S12 is smaller than the fourth distance between the cylinder cover warehousing port Q32 and the offline area Q11 of the cylinder cover production line S11. Otherwise, an unnecessary distance is added between the warehousing entrance Q3 and the corresponding downline area Q1 of the previous process production line S1. For example, a first distance between the lower line region Q11 of the cylinder line S11 and the cylinder put-in port Q31 is larger than a second distance between the cylinder put-in port Q31 and the lower line region Q12 of the cylinder head line S12, which means that the put-in port Q3 which is closer to the lower line region Q11 of the cylinder line S11 is set as the cylinder put-in port Q32, and the cylinder put-in port Q31 is set at a place which is farther from the lower line region Q11 of the cylinder line S11. Compared with a factory building in which the warehousing port Q3 which is closer to the unloading area Q11 of the cylinder production line S11 is set as the cylinder warehousing port Q31, when the conveying equipment 20 conveys the goods in the unloading area Q11 of the cylinder production line S11 to the cylinder warehousing port Q31, the conveying distance of the conveying equipment 20 is farther, so that the conveying efficiency of the conveying equipment 20 is reduced.
Further, since the production rates of the front process line S1 and the rear process line S2 may be different, the processor 10 needs to determine whether the quantity of the goods produced by the front process line S1 matches the quantity of the goods receivable by the rear process line S2 according to the inventory information of the lower line area Q1 of the front process line S1 and the inventory information of the upper line area Q2 of the rear process line S2 to determine the target position of the goods in the lower line area Q1 of the front process line S1. Therefore, when the transporting apparatus 20 transports the goods from the offline area Q1 of the pre-process line S1 to the target position, the processor 10 updates the stock information of the pickup position and the target position to ensure that the processor 10 can determine the correct target position according to the real-time stock information. For example, after the transfer device 20 transfers the goods from the offline area Q1 of the previous process line S1 to the online area Q2 of the subsequent process line S2, the processor 10 updates the inventory information of the offline area Q1 of the previous process line S1 and the online area Q2 of the subsequent process line S2 in time to prevent the transfer device 20 from transferring the goods exceeding the number of the goods receivable by the subsequent process line S2 to the subsequent process line S2.
In addition, the previous process production line S1 may further include a previous process production conveyor line P1, and after the previous process production conveyor line P1 produces the goods, the goods produced by the previous process production conveyor line P1 may be placed in the offline area Q1 of the previous process production line S1, and when the processor 10 obtains information that the produced goods are placed in the offline area Q1 of the previous process production line S1, the transportation task may be generated according to the information of the produced goods.
Referring to fig. 2 and 5, in some embodiments, the storage area S3 is provided with a transfer device 30, and step 012: controlling the carrying device 20 to move to the pick-up position for loading the goods and to transport to the target position, including:
step 0121: controlling the carrying equipment 20 to move to the goods taking position to load the goods and transport the goods to the transfer equipment 30;
step 0122: and controlling the transfer device 30 to transport the goods to the storage area S3 for warehousing.
Specifically, referring to fig. 3, when the quantity of the goods received by the post-process line S2 is smaller than the quantity of the goods produced by the pre-process line S1, some of the goods produced by the pre-process line S1 are sent to the storage area S3 for storage. In order to improve the transportation efficiency of the handling device 20 and reduce the working range of the handling device 20, so as to achieve the exclusive use of a special vehicle, part of the handling device 20 is dedicated to transporting goods outside the storage area S3, and part of the handling device 20 is dedicated to transporting goods inside the storage area S3. At this time, the transfer device 20 outside the storage area S3 and the transfer device 20 inside the storage area S3 need to use the transfer device 30, such as a conveyor belt, to complete the transfer of the transported goods. Therefore, after the transfer task is generated, the processor 10 controls the transfer device 20 outside the storage area S3 to move to the lower line area Q1 to load the goods, and transports the loaded goods to the relay device 30. Then, when the transporting apparatus 20 outside the storage area S3 transports the loaded goods onto the relay apparatus 30, the processor 10 controls the relay apparatus 30 to transport the goods to the warehousing entrance Q3 for warehousing. In this way, the transfer facility 30 can transfer the goods in the storage area S3 and the transport facilities 20 outside the storage area S3, thereby improving the efficiency of warehousing the goods produced by the front process line S1.
Further, in order to improve the efficiency of the transfer between the transfer device 20 and the transfer device 30, when the transfer device 20 transports the loaded cargo to the transfer device 30, the transfer device 30 can immediately receive the information and start operation, and the communication device of the transfer device 30 and the communication device of the transfer device 20 can be connected to facilitate the information exchange between the transfer device 30 and the transfer device 20. For example, after the transporting device 20 outside the storage area S3 transports the loaded cargo to the transfer device 30, information is sent to the communication device of the transfer device 30 through the communication device of the transporting device 20 outside the storage area S3, the transfer device 30 receiving the information can determine that the cargo has been transported to the transfer device 30, and then the processor 10 controls the transfer device 30 to rotate, so as to transport the cargo to the warehouse entry Q3.
When the subsequent process production line S2 has finished producing the goods and can receive the goods from the previous process production line S1 again, if the goods produced by the previous process production line S1 are stored in the storage area S3, the goods produced by the previous process production line S1 in the storage area S3 are preferentially transported to the subsequent process production line S2, so as to prevent some goods produced by the previous process production line S1 stored in the storage area S3 from being stored in the storage area S3 for too long time, and at this time, the goods produced by the previous process production line S1 in the storage area S3 need to be delivered from the warehouse. The storage area S3 has an outlet Q4 including a cylinder outlet Q41 and a cylinder head outlet Q42. After the processor 10 generates the corresponding transportation task based on the inventory information of the online area Q2 of the post-process line S2 and the inventory information of the storage area S3, the transportation device 20 in the storage area S3 transports the corresponding cargo to the relay device 30, and when the transportation device 20 in the storage area S3 transports the cargo to the relay device 30, the processor 10 controls the relay device 30 to transport the cargo to the delivery outlet Q4, thereby completing the delivery. The processor 10 controls the conveying equipment 20 outside the storage area S3 to move to the warehouse-out opening Q4 for loading the goods, and transports the loaded goods to the online area Q2 of the post-process production line S2 for online production.
Further, after the goods are produced by the post-process production line S2, the processor 10 controls the carrying device 20 to load the goods produced by the post-process production line S2, and transport the goods to the storage area S3 for storage, so as to facilitate management and subsequent delivery of the goods produced by the post-process production line S2. Therefore, when the handler 10 receives the delivery task of the goods produced by the post-process line S2, it also controls the transfer device 20 in the storage area S3 to transfer the goods produced by the post-process line S2, which needs to be delivered to the transfer device 30, and when the transfer device 20 in the storage area S3 transfers the goods to the transfer device 30, controls the transfer device 30 to transfer the goods to the delivery port Q4, thereby completing the delivery.
Referring to fig. 2 and 6, in some embodiments, the storage area S3 is provided with a shelf H1, the shelf H1 includes a plurality of storage locations C1, and the cargo management method further includes:
step 013: when the load carried by the conveyance device 20 is transported to the storage entrance Q3 of the storage area S3, the conveyance device 20 in the storage area S3 is controlled to carry the load of the storage entrance Q3 and transport the load to the target storage position C11 of the rack H1, where the target storage position C11 is any one of the plurality of storage positions C1.
Specifically, the storage area S3 is provided with a rack H1, the rack H1 includes a plurality of storage spaces C1, and the conveying device 20 in the storage area S3 is used to transport the goods at the storage entrance Q3 to the target storage space C11. Referring to fig. 3, when the processor 10 determines that a part of the goods produced by the front process production line S1 needs to be transported to the storage area S3 for storage, the processor also obtains the inventory information of the storage area S3, determines the target inventory location C11, and generates a transportation task including the information of the target inventory location C11. When the transporting device 20 outside the storage area S3 transports the loaded goods to the storage opening Q3, the processor 10 controls the transporting device 20 inside the storage area S3 to load the goods in the storage opening Q3 and transport the goods to the target storage position C11 of the shelf H1.
Further, the cylinder block production line S11 is used for producing cylinder blocks, and the cylinder head production line S12 is used for producing cylinder heads, so that two kinds of goods need to be stored in the storage area S3, and therefore in order to facilitate management of the storage area S3, two different storage areas S3 are also specially divided according to the kinds of goods, wherein one storage area S3 is used for storing cylinder blocks, and the other storage area S3 is used for storing cylinder heads, so that the same kind of goods can be stored in the same storage area S3 in a centralized manner. For example, when the storage area S3 includes a plurality of shelves H1, it is possible to specify that only one kind of goods is stored in each shelf H1, and when the processor 10 specifies the target storage space C11, it is possible to acquire the kind of goods stored in each shelf H1, set the shelf H1, in which the kind of stored goods is the same as the kind of goods produced by the previous process line S1 and the stock information is not full, as the target shelf H1, and then specify the target storage space C11 based on the stock information of the target shelf H1.
Correspondingly, when the goods need to be delivered, the processor 10 determines the target storage location C11 according to the type of the goods that need to be delivered and the inventory information of the shelf H1, controls the transporting device 20 in the storage area S3 to move to the target storage location C11 and loads the goods in the target storage location C11, then transports the loaded goods to the delivery outlet Q4, and completes the docking of the loaded goods with the transporting device 20 outside the storage area S3 through the transfer device 30 of the delivery outlet Q4. After the transporting equipment 20 in the storage area S3 transports the loaded goods to the output port Q4, the processor 10 updates the inventory information of the shelf H1 according to the information of the loaded goods and the information of the target inventory position C11, so as to change the inventory information of the target inventory position C11 to be empty in time, and the processor 10 can determine the target inventory position C11 according to the actual condition of the shelf H1.
Referring to fig. 2 and 7, in some embodiments, the post-process line S2 is provided with a manipulator 40, and the cargo management method of the present application includes:
step 014: when the handling device 20 transports the produced goods to the upstream area Q2 of the post-process line S2, the robot 40 that controls the upstream area Q2 of the post-process line S2 picks up the goods in the upstream area Q2 of the post-process line S2 and performs the on-line production.
Specifically, please refer to fig. 3, in order to facilitate the carrying device 20 to load the goods produced by the pre-process line S1 and ensure the safety of the process of loading the goods produced by the pre-process line S1, the goods produced by the pre-process line S1 are placed on the tray after the goods are produced by the pre-process line S1. Since the tray is not needed in the production process of the post-process production line S2, the tray and the goods produced by the pre-process production line S1 in the tray need to be separated. At this time, the post-process production line S2 is provided with the manipulator 40, and the manipulator 40 is used for grabbing goods in the tray and placing the goods on the post-process production line S2, so that the post-process production line S2 can directly use the goods placed on the post-process production line S2 for production. When the conveying device 20 transports the goods produced by the previous process line S1 to the on-line area Q2 of the subsequent process line S2, the handler 10 controls the manipulator 40 of the on-line area Q2 of the subsequent process line S2 to grab the goods in the on-line area Q2 of the subsequent process line S2 for on-line production.
Further, the post-process production line S2 may further be provided with a post-process production conveyor line P2, and when the goods produced by the post-process production line S1 are transported to the on-line area Q2 of the post-process production line S2, since the trays are not required to be used in the production process of the post-process production conveyor line P2, the manipulator 40 picks the goods produced by the pre-process production line S1 in the trays to the post-process production conveyor line P2, so as to perform on-line production.
Furthermore, a plurality of working positions can be arranged for the manipulator 40 according to the operable range of the manipulator 40 and the size of the goods, so that the number of the manipulators 40 can be reduced while the on-line speed of the goods transported to the on-line area Q2 of the post-process production line S2 is ensured, and the cost and the occupied space of the manipulator 40 are reduced.
Referring to fig. 2 and 8, in some embodiments, a cargo management method of the present application includes:
step 015: after the manipulator 40 picks the goods in the on-line area Q2 of the post-process production line S2 for on-line production, the handling device 20 is controlled to transport the empty pallet for carrying the goods in the on-line area Q2 of the post-process production line S2 to the storage area S3 for warehousing.
Specifically, referring to fig. 3, after the robot 40 picks up the goods in the on-line area Q2 of the post-process line S2 for production, the tray originally carrying the goods in the on-line area Q2 of the post-process line S2 becomes an empty tray. In order to avoid that empty pallets are placed in the on-line area Q2 of the post-process production line S2, so that the vacancy of the on-line area Q2 of the post-process production line S2 is reduced, it is difficult for the subsequent handling equipment 20 to carry the goods produced by the pre-process production line S1 to the on-line area Q2 of the post-process production line S2, and thus the production efficiency of the post-process production line S2 is affected. In addition, if the empty trays are not placed in a unified manner, when the production line S1 in the previous process needs the empty trays, time is required to search for the empty trays, so that the carrying efficiency of the goods produced by the production line S1 in the previous process is affected. Therefore, the handler 10 controls the conveying device 20 to convey the empty tray to the warehousing-in port Q3 for warehousing of the empty tray, thereby facilitating management of the empty tray. Alternatively, if the offline area Q1 of the previous process line S1 requires empty pallets to load the goods produced by the previous process line S1, the handler 10 controls the conveying device 20 to convey the empty pallets to the online area Q2 of the previous process line S1 to load the goods produced by the previous process line S1.
Further, in order to facilitate management of the storage area S3, the storage area S3 for storing empty trays may also be divided exclusively in the storage area S3. When the conveying device 20 outside the storage area S3 transports the empty tray from the post-process line S2 to the warehousing entrance Q3, the target stock location C11 of the empty tray is obtained based on the stock information of the storage area S3 in which the empty tray is stored in the storage area S3. Then, the conveying device 20 in the storage area S3 moves to the storage entrance Q3 to load the empty tray and transport the loaded empty tray to the target storage location C11, and updates the stock information of the storage area S3 in which the empty tray is stored in real time.
Referring to fig. 2, 9 and 10, in some embodiments, the handling device 20 further includes a detection device 21, the detection device 21 is used to detect the pose of the cargo, and step 012: controlling the carrying device 20 to move to the pick-up position for loading the goods, comprising:
step 0123: determining pose adjustment information of the handling equipment 20 according to the pose of the goods at the goods taking position;
step 0124: the attitude of the body of the conveyance device 20 and the attitude of the forks 22 of the conveyance device 20 are adjusted according to the attitude adjustment information so that the centers of the forks 22 are aligned with the center of the load at the pickup position when the conveyance device 20 is loaded with the load at the pickup position.
Specifically, since the handling device 20 needs to transport a plurality of goods to and fro between the front process production line S1, the rear process production line S2, and the storage area S3, if the postures of the goods placed at the target positions are not uniform, the subsequent work may be wrong. For example, when the carrying device 20 transports the loaded goods to the on-line region Q2 of the post-process production line S2, when the carrying device 20 carries the goods in the off-line region Q1 of the pre-process production line S1, a position where the loaded goods are placed is greatly deviated from a preset position of the carrying device 20, so that the position where the loaded goods are placed is greatly deviated from the preset position of the manipulator 40, and the manipulator 40 cannot stably grab the goods in the on-line region Q2 of the post-process production line S2, and the grabbed goods fall off from the manipulator 40, thereby damaging the grabbed goods.
Therefore, the handling device 20 further includes a detection device 21, and the detection device 21 is used to detect the attitude of the cargo, that is, the position and attitude of the cargo. When the transporting device 20 loads the goods in the offline area Q1 of the previous process production line S1, the detecting device 21 is used to detect the pose of the goods, and the pose adjustment information of the transporting device 20 is determined according to the pose of the goods in the offline area Q1 of the previous process production line S1. Then, the attitude of the vehicle body of the carrier device 20 and the attitude of the fork 22 of the carrier device 20 are adjusted according to the attitude adjustment information, so that the center of the fork 22 is aligned with the center of the cargo in the drop line region Q1 of the previous process line S1 when the carrier device 20 is loaded with the cargo in the drop line region Q1 of the previous process line S1. Therefore, when the carrying device 20 loads goods, it can be ensured that the loaded goods can be placed at the preset position of the fork 22, and further the loaded goods can be placed at the preset position of the line-feeding area Q2 of the post-process production line S2 or the preset position of the transfer device 30, so that it is ensured that the subsequent work can be smoothly and stably performed.
