Description
1, technical field
The present invention relates to prepare the field of order goods.
Or rather, the present invention relates to prepare to comprise the order goods that namely will transport to addressee's one or more commodity.The present invention is by the shop that is called " online " shop or sell by mail in (MOS) and special application to be arranged aspect the preparation of the order goods that produces.
The internet is main business tool really.Every day all will be processed thousands of order goods in the shop of selling by mail.Major part in these order goods utilizes online shop to transmit by the internet.
User's income part is: he or she can buy various commodity by online shop.But, be responsible for to prepare and on-line shop's (perhaps claiming the logistics tissue) of transporting the order goods to still have problems to have to be solved.
2, background technology
The prior art solution
Preparation is the work of a complexity by the order goods that internet site produces.In fact, for every a order goods, must carry out from stock delivery of cargo (in order to choosing the Constitution Elements of this part order goods) and prepare the arrangement that the order goods is prepared, the order goods will hold within it and transports to the client after being verified.
This method is hand basically, only organizes just enforcement in the very little situation of simultaneously treated order car loading in on-line shop or logistics.When the quantity of order goods increased, the arrangement aspect preparation order goods must be very careful.For this reason, now, having several is always known for many years with the method in the processing operation set of order goods.This concentrating makes it possible to once just pick out many parts of all commodity that the order goods is required of preparation.This concentrating can divide several steps to realize, mode can be (for example, to use automatic operation and storage system, such as the storage and retrieval machine) automatically, also can be manual.Realize that this concentrated method also depends on the quantity of pending order goods.
Traditional method can be implemented classifying step immediately after this concentrated step is finished, the purpose of the final step in the classifying step is to prepare the order goods, and the order goods subsequently can be packed and be sent with charge free.
These classifying step especially can specifically become this whole component several groups with the whole group of commodity grouping of concentrating step to produce, and wherein the number of commodity reduces.For example, whole group of commodity of centralized operation generation can comprise the commodity of 200O part order goods.Classification makes it possible to produce subgroup with the consecutive steps of heavily grouping, for example has the subgroup of 200 parts of order goods.These subgroups are accepted processing at different preparation stations.
The order goods is prepared the station and is generally comprised order goods preparatory unit, and the form that it is certain storehouse comprises a plurality of recesses (also being compartment), and the commodity that adhere to different order goods separately leave in wherein after scanning.
In other words, the final stage of preparation order goods forms by following: in the phase one, one group of order for goods is distributed to the order goods preparatory unit (for example, 50 parts of order goods being given the preparatory unit that comprises 50 recesses) of appointment.In subordinate phase, the composition commodity of order goods are provided from the one or more baskets that for this reason provide the preparation personnel one by one, and scan one by one these commodity.After commodity were accepted scanning, the preparation personnel just received the information of the recess that commodity must be inserted.In order to ensure commodity being inserted in the suitable recess, can in each recess, verify with commodity storage wherein with infrared sensor.
When all commodity being assigned in the recess and after the preparation personnel have received the information that all order goods have all accepted to process, he carries out the preparation matters of package subsequently: his move one by one order goods of placing the desk recess and prepare one by one package, and in the hope of the order goods is transported.
When taxon was vacant, the preparation personnel began to prepare the order goods of next group immediately again.
Different art methods and the centralized unit that is used for preparing the order goods, employed those centralized unit in some preparation method such as prior art are hereinafter described.
Area of computer aided picking up system (CAPS):
Following methods is specially adapted to manually prepare the order goods.More particularly, following methods is applicable to the situation of the quantity less of order goods to be prepared.
This stand-by mode depends on information handling system, and wherein the light indicator at take-off location place is lighted.Therefore, the operator is guided through pick-up area by means of the display unit system with light emitting diode (LED), advances towards commodity to be picked up.
The difference of two kinds of stand-by modes more specifically embodies in the following areas:
-pick up (preparation of order goods) under the light:
The operator one by one prepares the order goods of all these commodity.Every commodity have a compartment, and each compartment is equipped with a display unit.In each compartment, take the in proper order commodity of order goods of shown quantity of operator.
-be placed to (classification) under the light
This method belongs to the manual classification auxiliary law.Workstation can be with the compartment of the specific quantity of the order goods that can at once distribute to the client.When the operator provided the bar code of commodity, system just set up these commodity and order goods related, and opened the light indicator corresponding to the compartment of described order goods.Next, the thing that the operator must do is just just placed described commodity at a terrific speed, but any mistake of important criminal not.
Additive method:
-" pick up and pack " and " picking up again packing "
The size of " picking up and packing " meaning client's package " is encapsulated " in advance.In the known situation of the size of the quantity of the commodity that this package must comprise and these commodity, can set volume of a container, perhaps or even the quantity of container.These containers (label also is identified) are sent to area in preparation, and in area in preparation, the storehouse employee can place the commodity of expection.(can notice that this way needs to drop into to some extent, prevents that like this commodity are retrieved aspect canned software program in advance).
" pick up again packing " method hypothesis preparation personnel can pick up commodity and it for example is positioned on the belt (travelling belt), and like this, commodity can be got regulates the station, regulating the station, by the operator size of package is estimated.Commodity are placed in the selected package (therefore, this way makes it possible to the quality and quantity of commodity is controlled) subsequently.
-circuit picks up
According to this principle, the preparation personnel are by the once identical movement before entering memory address, pick up relevant with same reference substance, pick up all commodity corresponding to the circuit of all order goods of ripple with homogeneous.Be understandable that this principle lacks a stage (that is, final sorting phase), more particularly, be called the stage of " picking up to classify ".
Portable terminal:
Portable terminal makes it possible to prepare simultaneously some parts of order goods, and aspect time and the transmitting range benefit is being arranged.Use terminal with the order cargo consolidation, terminal be so that the operator can pass the commodity storage district, prepares the required commodity of order goods thereby pick up from storage area.
Portable terminal is equipped with bin and the light indicator terminal of wanting to some extent quantity in each position.The operator obtains instruction from the purpose terminal, as be about to carry out pick up relevant position or quantity.Quantity to be sent with charge free indicates on the present digital terminal.
Bar code reader is identified kinds of goods to be redistributed.So just, increased the reliability of pick-up operation, and made it possible to loading operation is followed the tracks of.
This principle is called " once picking up-repeatedly put " principle.The example of following methods comprises to be concentrated shiploads of merchandise:
The method comprises the some continued operations of commodity classification in the order goods:
-step 1: the phase one of the method begins to be pick-up operation, like this so that the required commodity of that ripple on the same day can be grouped in together (Here it is centralized operation).
-step 2: therefore, subordinate phase is comprised of following operation: pick out kinds of goods and it is separated, the element with those reaching on the times merges (this equates by object keeping box and distribute) simultaneously.
Operator's hand is held hand-scanner, makes commodity send beep sound (commodity are scanned).By the diode display unit, he has known which bin corresponding element must be assigned to.
When making a mistake, Computer display is made mistakes when being assigned to element in the bin.
-step 3: therefore, the phase III of the method is comprised of following operation: assign different elements and it is distributed to separately order goods.The preparation personnel make element send beep sound and it are positioned in the compartment.Each compartment has a order goods.
System utilizes infrared barrier to depositing situation inspection, has realized the optimization of quantity.If the position of commodity misplaces, computing machine can show mistake immediately so.
-step 4: the packages orders goods also sends it to the personnel of transporting cargo, and enclose suitable delivery receipt (delivery slip).
There are several main defectives in the complete typical technology of this cover of prior art, has affected production efficiency.First shortcoming is to need a lot of sort operations when preparing order goods group.Really, as a rule, the centralized operation of order goods makes it possible to pick up from the warehouse commodity of q.s, thereby can prepare and transport a large amount of order goods, and these are generally considered to be favourable aspect.Problem is, the commodity that centralized operation produces can't be delivered directly to the order goods and prepare the station because (being associated with classification/preparatory unit) website the limited amount (for example, 50 parts of order goods) of the simultaneously treated order goods of energy.
Second shortcoming of this prior art is that for the classification/preparatory unit of appointment, the group of order goods (for example, 50 parts of order goods) is prepared to finish by the time, then just can begin to prepare new order goods.In other words, when a in the classification/preparatory unit or many parts of order goods end process, possibly can't prepare the package of these order goods, and can't in the recess that therefore discharges, begin to prepare new order goods.
In other words, when 30000 parts of order goods remain to be prepared simultaneously (for the very large business operation of client's radix, this is common situations), must there be the unit of q.s to obtain to process the ability of these order goods.Therefore, art methods need to be included the working surface of the preparation that is exclusively used in a large amount of order goods in.Now, the maintenance cost of this working surface is very high.
3, invention target
Target of the present invention is these shortcomings that overcome prior art specifically.
More particularly, target of the present invention provides a kind of device and a kind of method of using this device for preparing the order goods, wherein need not a large amount of steps in the commodity that centralized way is produced are classified and divided into groups.
Another target of the present invention is for implementing taxon, and described taxon makes it possible to the recess that is used for preparation order goods is redistributed automatically, thereby prepares the order goods based on the principle of " only having reaching on the time (just-in-time) ".
In addition, therefore another target of the present invention also reduces for preparing the required surface area of order goods for the quantity that reduces the unit.

6.1 prompting inventive principle
The present invention proposes a kind of novel method for preparing the order goods, and the method does not have the shortcoming of art methods, and in art methods, the process of preparing the order goods is very long and arduous, therefore can't obtain higher gain aspect production efficiency.
The inventor has been noted that art methods is unsuitable for preparing the order goods of quantity height change.In fact, will larger surf zone be specifically designed to that to prepare the order goods be disadvantageous, especially in this surf zone situation that (for example, at selling period) is fully used only once in a while.
On the contrary, it also is disadvantageous that too small surf zone is specifically designed to preparation order goods, because sometimes have the order goods (for example, at selling period) of maximum.
The inventor has been noted that needs to adjust order goods processing power, keeps simultaneously the treatment surface zone constant.
It is impossible carrying out this adjustment with the common method of sort operation in use art methods, the especially continuum.
General Principle of the present invention is, in the process of preparing the order goods work space is divided into two different spaces: one can be used in preparation order goods, and another can be used in the order goods that encapsulation is prepared.According to the present invention, these two different spaces are configured to so that when the operator had finished the preparation of order goods, (or within very short time) was by operator's adapter of on commission encapsulation and preparation package immediately.Therefore, the position that the order goods of being taken over by encapsulation operation person discharges makes it possible to prepare new order goods, thereby waits for new order goods.Therefore, need no longer as the situation of art methods, to wait until that one group of order goods preparation finishes, could prepare another order goods, and can obtain so precious temporal gain.
Be responsible for the operator of encapsulation can be under the operator's who is responsible for preparing the order goods (this operator can notify operator's order goods of being responsible for encapsulation ready) operation this order goods of manual administration, perhaps automatically manage by management system hereinafter described.
According to the present invention, the application of this principle makes it possible to set the 4 described methods for preparing the order goods with reference to figure, the method is characterized in that and implement order goods preparation device (DPC), this device is provided with one and is used for preparing the space EPC of order goods and the order load packaging space EEC for preparing, described EEC is at least part of to be different from described space EPC for preparing the order goods, and described method comprises at least at least:
-deposit step (71), be used for by the first operator 7A that is arranged in described space EPC for preparing the order goods at least one commodity AR being stored at least one position (E1, E2 etc.) of described order goods preparation device;
-detecting step (72) is for detection of the filling situation of a at least order goods in described at least one position (E1, E2 etc.);
-supplying step (73) is used for the indication of the filling situation of described a at least order goods is transported to the second operator 7B that is positioned at described order load packaging space (EEC);
-extraction step (74) is used for extracting the described a at least order goods that has loaded from described at least one position (E1, E2 etc.) by described the second operator 7B.
The feature of described method also is, described extraction step discharges described at least one position, be used for depositing at least one commodity by described the first operator who is positioned at described space for preparing the order goods, described at least one commodity are associated with a at least new order goods of soon preparing in described at least one position.
The invention still further relates to a kind of system for the preparation of ordering is managed, described system comprises the subsystem that manages for the preparation to the order goods on the one hand, described subsystem and a plurality of order goods preparation device are (for example, be applicable to implement unit of the present invention) be associated, and on the other hand, comprise preprocessing subsystem (being also referred to as WMS).The WMS subsystem can form commodity with the customer order goods and be grouped in together a plurality of batches.
The invention still further relates to specific device, described device makes it possible to prepare and the packages orders goods, and work space is divided into two different spaces: one can be used in preparation order goods, and another can be used in the order goods that encapsulation is prepared.
6.2 the first embodiment of the first dynamic order goods preparation device of the present invention is described
As mentioned above, of the present invention one of them be characterised in that order goods one encapsulation of before having prepared just reuses this recess and prepares new order goods in recess.For this reason, the present invention proposes to use a kind of dynamic order goods preparation device.According to one particular embodiment of the present invention, this dynamic order goods preparation device adopts the form of the worktable that comprises clinoplane 3A, 3B, 3C, 3D, as shown in Figure 3.
According to the present invention, this order goods prep stand comprises for the clinoplane (for example 3A) of preparing the order goods, and the clinoplane (for example 3B) that is used for packages orders goods (package of every part of order goods).Described clinoplane toward each other, as shown in Figure 3.
The clinoplane (3A, 3C) that is used for preparation order goods is configured for preparing the working surface (EPC) of order goods.As indicated above, the preparation personnel are scanned the commodity in basket or the bin one by one, and according to indication to his position, with this commodity storage in suitable carton or pallet C1.The clinoplane that is used for preparation package (when packing) is configured for commodity are encapsulated in the working surface (EEC) of package.According to the present invention, this encapsulation work surface separates with order goods preparation surface.
Refer again to Fig. 3, when the preparation personnel have finished the preparation of order goods, according to the present invention and need not to wait for that carton or pallet that he or she just will contain commodity are tilted in for the clinoplane (for example 3B, 3D) of preparing package.
Therefore, according to the present invention, the position that discharges can be reused for immediately prepares new order goods, need not to wait for previous order load packaging.This feature of the present invention makes it possible to the preparation of the order goods of larger amt is managed, and the quantity of simultaneously available order goods ready position is large on this quantity possibility ratio device.
In fact, be appreciated that therefore the quantity of simultaneously treated order goods is more much bigger than actual number of positions owing to possible dynamic assignment order goods ready position.
Therefore, for same working surface, the invention enables the order goods that to process larger quantity, therefore reduce the cost of preparing the order goods.
According to a special characteristic of the present invention, in this embodiment, the clinoplane that is used for preparation order goods comprises a plurality of positions, thereby has set the processing power of device.Advantageously, each position is equipped with an indicator, thereby preparation that can notification operator order goods finishes.This indicator can adopt the form of diode display unit, for example with reference to that diode display unit shown in Figure 4.When preparing the order goods, the diode display unit is lighted, thereby can notification operator, and he can be tilted in carton or pallet for the inclined surface of preparing package (for encapsulation).After this operation was finished, the operator can be left new carton or new container in discharge position, and continued to prepare the order goods.
6.3 the second embodiment of the first dynamic order goods preparation device of the present invention is described
In a second embodiment, order goods preparation device of the present invention adopts the form of traditional preparatory unit, as described in the reference prior art.Yet there is very big-difference in this element, thereby so that it might implement the method for preparing the order goods of the present invention.This species diversity is, described unit comprises for the member that will separate for the working surface of the commodity of encapsulation package and the working surface that is used for preparation order goods.According to one embodiment of present invention, as depicted in figs. 1 and 2, the difference part of this element M1 and prior art unit is that this element is the unit with penetration type recess.In other words, this element does not have the back.Therefore, so that consist of the front that the commodity of order goods were put into or left in this unit, and so that these commodity can be finished when preparing at the order goods move from the back side as the recess of this unit of order goods ready position (E1, E2 etc.).
According to a special characteristic, in addition, recess comprises being positioned at deposits indicator ID1 on the front, and this indicator must be deposited the just now recess of the commodity of scanning so that the operator can understand him, as described in reference to figure 4.
Recess also comprises the device VD1 that is positioned at the situation of depositing that is used for the inspection commodity on the front.Particularly, be alternative in infrared detection system, this device VD1 that be used for to check the situation of depositing of commodity is made of about 3/4ths the bar that extends up to the recess height from the bottom, and therefore, the operator is easy to commodity storage this bar of contact in the process of recess.This bar is connected to the electric switch that the movement by bar starts.Described electric switch can be notified order goods preparation system.
6.4 the display system of device of the present invention is described
As indicated above, order goods preparation device of the present invention is created as " putting according to light " system, and is used for a collection of commodity with the order goods that the client provides is grouped in together and distribution has been selected in the phase one of two stage preparation methods (concentrating).Commodity storage is in the carton that is arranged in classification position (also becoming recess or object keeping box).
The building mode of described position is so that two operators can carry out two different tasks simultaneously.The commodity of fetching in the operator who works previously of described position provides from this him the locational carton a collection of (unfiled) commodity separately.The operator who works later in described position unloads the carton that contains the order goods that has loaded, and carries out their preparation of transporting.
Each position all has one and is positioned at anterior display panel and a display panel that is positioned at the rear portion.In addition, described device also comprises general display panel.
Front display panel
On each position, PTF3N-1 type display panel (ID1) will be installed in the front.These display panels have three digital light indicators, effective multi-colored led indicator, and four multifunction keys, as shown in Figure 4.
Status report messages appears on PTF12A (IDG) the type universal display dish, and described display panel comprises 12 alphanumeric pilot lamp, effective multi-colored led pilot lamp, and four multifunction keys, as shown in Figure 5.This general indicator (IDG) is used for alarm operation person in the unusual situation occurring.
Rear display panel
PTF4L (ID2) type display panel is arranged in the back of position.These display panels have acknowledgement key and two LED light indicators, and the filling situation of described light indicator indication order goods is as described in reference to figure 6.When the operator presses button, just can notify the position to discharge, and can redistribute to new order goods.
6.5 the method for the preparation of order goods being carried out computer management is described
Preparation method
The condition precedent of distributing
During the first preparation process, never be subjected to fetch commodity in the independent space of PLB system management.WMS can form commodity with the customer order goods and be grouped in together a plurality of batches.Commodity in these batches are transfused to and are transported to subsequently allocation units.
Data element about the commodity selection in the order goods sends to first the PBL system, and then these commodity arrive workstation.Described data element contains relevant for the information for client's commodity availability.
WMS can not put into workstation with the order goods that does not load.After the PBL system received the order goods, this system just received whole circuits, to be used for selecting the commodity of customer order goods.
The beginning preparation method
The order goods is prepared personnel after the first preparation process is fetched commodity and WMS and sent data corresponding to these commodity, and the operator just begins assigning process.
Being used for distributing commodity is the shelf that carton is positioned at object keeping box with the first step of preparing the order goods.Carton is placed on needed position.Not having independent step is used for preparing simultaneously a plurality of cartons.Can and divide timing to finish the location of carton in carton arrival.
In the first allocation step, arbitrary commodity in the commodity that provide can be provided the order goods personnel that prepare.After this scanning, PBL identifies commodity and notifies the preparation personnel the relevant next step that is about to execution.Every commodity of PBL system log (SYSLOG) move to each step of distributing object keeping box from the warehouse.Corresponding data slot is stored in the database table.
The normal selection of commodity
A 1.1 prepares personnel behind the scanning bar code at the order goods, and the PBL system checks, whether need commodity to improve to have distributed to be in any position to check client's the order goods of carton of (no matter this position how).In this assigning process, loaded the order goods and prepared all fragments of data, so can not carry out extra request to database in this stage.
If A 1.2 detects client's order goods, then the PBL system can start the light indicator on the display panel of the carton position that has been assigned with the order goods.Simultaneously, amount 1 can be presented on the light indicator, thereby notice preparation personnel commodity (those part commodity that he or she is processing) have been put in the carton, and wherein light indicator shows this information.
Subsequently, the preparation personnel must be with this commodity storage in carton, and starts the affirmation button on the display panel.
If 1.3 1 commodity of A are all unrecognized in any order goods, then the PBL system shows error message in the zone of display panel.
New carton
Do not detect carton if the A2.1 commodity must be deposited, then PBL can seek client's order goods in the table of database " ORDERPOS ", and this order goods contains these commodity and not yet filling.
If A2.2 finds the order goods, then PBL can search clear position in object keeping box.
If A2.3 has found clear position, then PBL loads the data of relevant order goods subsequently, starts the light indicator on the display panel in the corresponding clear position, and allows this indicator glimmer.Therefore, in this case, Fig. 1 is presented on the light indicator, to show that the commodity of scanning just must leave in this carton behind previous, new carton location.
Subsequently, the preparation personnel pick up new carton and are located at clear position, and the commodity storage of scanning in this carton, and is started affirmation on the display panel, wherein light indicator flicker.
Possible mistake has:
-do not detect the order goods that contains commodity;
-not can be used for the position of carton.
The A2.4 mistake can be presented in the zone errors on the display panel.
Therefore, final result is client's new order cargo allocation paper loading plate case and is assigned to certain position, and the commodity of scanning are placed on wherein.
A2.5 is when when the commodity allocated phase is put into ad-hoc location with new carton, and the position of carton (that is, distributing to the space of order goods) is recorded in the order goods table of database subsequently.
The affirmation of commodity selection
A3.1 distributes after the commodity at every turn, and the field " QTY_PICKED " that database acceptance of the bid is entitled as in the table of " OPRDERPOS " can increase a value.
A3.2 subsequently, whether system checks be finished to check the carton of putting into commodity.All processed and circuit itself when being finished when all circuits of commodity that be used for to select the order goods, carton is considered and is finished.In this case, the state in the database makes " (Ready Picked) picked up in preparation " (rather than " ready (Ready) " of only having moved and prepared to distribute when transporting at carton) into from the position.
