Embodiment

Thing is picked this application provides one kind and thing information interacting method is picked, it is adaptable to from the storage compartment of article Choose the scene of article, for example, from merchandise warehouse choose packing slip on goods or, from books Books specified in shop on sort out book list etc..

The embodiment of the present application methods described and the purpose of device are that raising picks thing efficiency, that is, reduce selection Total time-consuming.

Below in conjunction with the accompanying drawing in the embodiment of the present application, the technical scheme in the embodiment of the present application is carried out Clearly and completely describe, it is clear that described embodiment is only some embodiments of the present application, and The embodiment being not all of.Based on the embodiment in the application, those of ordinary skill in the art are not doing Go out the every other embodiment obtained under the premise of creative work, belong to the scope of the application protection.

In the embodiment of the present application, the reservoir area A or reservoir area B in Fig. 1 are divided at least two articles in advance In storage area, each article memory block correspondence at least one first pick object space, " correspondence " here Refer to, first picks the selection that object space is merely responsible for placing the article in this article storage region.Fig. 2 with appoint Meaning one first is picked exemplified by object space, illustrates a kind of flow for picking object space method that the application is provided.

As shown in Fig. 2 comprising the following steps：

S201：First, which picks object space, receives and picks thing instruction, and picking thing instruction includes article to be picked and to be picked Article pick the corresponding article storage region of object space first in deposit position.

S202：First picks object space according to thing instruction is picked, and article to be picked is put into storage position from deposit position.

Specifically, in one embodiment, first pick object space can once traversal selection during, The all or part of thing to be picked for picking included in thing instruction is obtained from corresponding article storage region Product." once travel through selection process " herein, which can refer to first and pick object space, traverses through whole article storage Region and the process that returns or refer to first and pick object space and traverse through a part for article memory block just The process of return." once travel through selection process " herein can be to shorten the first row for picking object space Enter route, raising picks thing efficiency.In addition, in another alternatively or additionally embodiment, in multiple articles In the case that storage area correspondence multiple first picks object space, it can be instructed, indicated many by the thing that picks of mass-sending Individual first, which picks object space, concurrently carries out traversal selection, thus further effectively improves the efficiency for picking thing.

Position is stored equivalent to the temporary container that article store, further, the quantity for storing position be one or Multiple, each storage position is provided with label, therefore, it can in reservoir area by label come unique terrestrial reference Each storage position is known, in case follow-up picks thing and acquisition.

S203：First, which picks object space, sends the identification information of article to be picked and stores the identification information of position.

Alternatively, first pick object space and directly can pick the identification information that object space sends article to be picked to second And storage position identification information (as shown in Figure 2), can also by the identification information of article to be picked with And the identification information of storage position issues miscellaneous equipment such as control centre, then thing is picked from miscellaneous equipment to second Side's forwarding.

S204：Second, which picks object space, receives the identification information of article to be picked and stores the identification information of position.

S205：Second picks object space takes out article to be picked from storage position.

Similarly, in one embodiment, second picks object space can be during once traversal selection, just All or part of article to be picked is obtained from storage position." once travel through selection process " herein can be with Refer to second and pick object space and traverse through the process of all storage positions and return or refer to second and pick object space Traverse through the process that the transfer position of a part is returned to.

From above-mentioned steps as can be seen that in the present embodiment, will selection article be divided into deposit position-storage position and Storage position-be removed two processes, previous process picks object space by first and implemented, and latter picks thing by second Implement side.Because at least including two article storage regions in reservoir area, each article storage region correspondence At least one first picks object space, and each first picks object space and pick thing according to the process shown in Fig. 2 and second Fang Hezuo completes to pick thing, so, compared with traditional shown in Fig. 1 picks object space method, in the present embodiment, Each first picks object space and is placed into the article in corresponding article storage region during traversal selection and deposits Storage space, second picks object space takes out article from one or more storage positions again during traversal selection, also It is to say, by traditional, serially picking object space formula is changed at least two first modes for picking the parallel picking of object space, institute So that the efficiency for picking thing can be effectively improved.

According to above-mentioned thought, the raising degree and first for picking thing efficiency pick the quantity of object space, second pick object space Quantity and store position quantity positive correlation.That is, first picks that object space is more, second pick object space more Many or storage position is more, and the efficiency for picking thing is higher.In addition to quantity, first picks object space once The article to be picked obtained in ergodic process is more, or second picks object space and obtained in an ergodic process Article to be picked it is more, or, multiple first pick object space or second pick object space concurrent job, can Further improve and pick thing efficiency.

For example, as shown in figure 3, being four article storage regions by reservoir area A or B points, each article is deposited Put region correspondence one first and pick object space, four article storage regions share a storage position and one second Pick object space.Method with reference to shown in Fig. 2, with shown in Fig. 1 pick object space formula compared with, picking thing efficiency can be with It is elevated.On the basis of Fig. 3, four article storage regions are changed into eight or increase each First in article storage region picks object space or increases the second quantity for picking object space, picking efficiency Further to be lifted.

Or, the quantity of increase storage position so that each one storage position of article storage region correspondence, institute Meaning " correspondence " refers to that the article placed in this article storage region is deposited in this storage position for transfer.This Position is stored to place in this article storage region, or, it is no more than present count with the distance of this storage area Value, so that shortening first picks object space to the traveling distance of storage position, can also further be lifted and pick thing efficiency.

As shown in figure 4, the reservoir area A or reservoir area B in Fig. 1 are divided into article storage area in units of shelf The shelf of domain, i.e., one are an article storage region, and each shelf corresponds to one or more storage positions, So-called " correspondence " refers to, the article placed on this shelf is deposited in this storage position for transfer.Transfer container Close to the end for being placed on its corresponding shelf.In summary, in Fig. 4, shelf correspondence one the One pick in object space and a transfer container, reservoir area multiple first pick object space parallel carry out pick thing operation.Storehouse Area includes at least one and second picks object space.Still illustrated below so that one first picks object space as an example.

Fig. 5 is to pick thing process based on what Fig. 4 was carried out, is comprised the following steps：

S501：Control centre obtains and picks thing list.

Specifically, control centre can pick thing list by the way that multiple article orders are collected into generation together.

S502：Control centre picks thing instruction according to the generation of thing list is picked, and to first picks object space and issue and pick thing and refer to Order, in the present embodiment, will be referred to as first and picks thing instruction to the first thing instruction that picks for picking that object space issues.

Specifically, control centre, which can generate and issue according to the storage area of article to be picked, picks thing instruction： One deposit position for picking article to be picked in thing instruction belongs to same article storage region, and to this thing Product storage area corresponding first pick object space issue this pick thing instruction.

If for example, picked in thing list both including the article on the shelf 1 shown in Fig. 4 or including shelf 2 On article, then control centre's generation picks thing instruction 1, wherein only including the article to be picked on shelf 1 The deposit position of article to be picked on identification information and shelf 1, and picked to shelf 1 corresponding first Object space, which is issued, picks thing instruction 1；And generation picks thing instruction 2, wherein only including the thing to be picked on shelf 2 The deposit position of article to be picked on the identification information and shelf 2 of product, and to shelf 2 corresponding One pick object space issue pick thing instruction 2.

Or, specifically, control centre can also pick object space mass-sending identical to different first and pick thing and refer to Order, first, which picks object space, selects the article to be picked on its corresponding shelf as target item, and by target Article is put into storage position from its deposit position, and the article to be picked on other shelf is not responded.

Above two concrete mode, the former can further be lifted first pick object space pick thing efficiency, the latter The burden of control centre can be mitigated, in actual applications, any one mode can be selected on demand.

Specifically, the identification information of article to be picked can the ID including article to be picked, title, batch And quantity etc..The deposit position of article to be picked can include ID (such as reservoir area A or the reservoir area of reservoir area B), Position Number on the ID in tunnel, shelf numbering and shelf etc..

Alternatively, first pick and can also include ID etc. of this instruction in thing instruction.

S503：First picks object space according to thing instruction is picked, and article to be picked is put into storage position from deposit position.

Further, first pick object space by it is same pick thing instruction in article to be picked be put into same deposit Storage space, or a storage position fail to lay down the same all items picked in thing instruction, then first pick object space The same article to be picked picked during thing is instructed is put into multiple storage positions, further, multiple storage positions Can be adjacent storage position.Purpose is to facilitate the second selection for picking object space, further improves selection Efficiency.

Specifically, storage position can set identification code, and first picks object space is placed into storage by article to be picked After on position, identification code can be scanned, to obtain the identification information of storage position.

Specifically, first object space is picked for robot, or first picks object space for by controller and various transmissions The system that device is constituted, the implementation that article to be picked is put into storage position from deposit position may refer to Prior art, is repeated no more here.

S504：First, which picks object space, sends the identification information of article to be picked to control centre and stores position Identification information.

S505：Control centre picks object space transmission second to second and picks thing instruction, and second, which picks thing instruction, includes The identification information of article to be picked and the identification information for storing position.

Specifically, control centre issue second pick thing instruction can also according in S501 pick thing list generation, For example, control centre can receive the identification information for picking the article on thing list and store position After identification information, pick object space transmission second to second and pick thing instruction.It is preferred that control centre can connect Receive and pick the identification information of all items on thing list with after the identification information of storage position, object space is picked to second Send second and pick thing instruction.

S506：Second picks object space takes out article to be picked from storage position.

Similarly, second object space is picked for robot, or second picks object space for by controller and various transmissions The system that device is constituted, prior art is may refer to by the implementation that article to be picked takes out from storage position, Here repeat no more.

For in Fig. 4 store position in the case of, second pick object space can travel through storage position carry out take thing, until Get second pick thing instruction in all items.

It should be noted that first picks object space and directly can also pick object space to second and send article to be picked Identification information and the identification information for storing position, and control centre to second picks object space and issued and picks thing list, the Two, which pick object space, receives and picks after thing list, according to the article to be picked picked in thing list, inquires about article to be picked Identification information and the identification information for storing position, the sort out article to be picked from transfer container.

According to the method shown in Fig. 5, it is assumed that only one of which second picks object space in reservoir area, as shown in fig. 6, Each first pick object space only article is chosen on the tunnel of its corresponding shelf both sides, second, which picks object space, exists On main stem article is chosen from each transfer container.

Assuming that tunnel length is N, passageway length is M, and tunnel number is x, and selection every time performs time-consuming T. The worst traversal picking distance in tunnel is that 2N (returns transfer from transfer container to shelf least significant end Container), the picking distance in passageway is that space complexity in M, tunnel is sky in 2N, passageway Between complexity be M.

It is the process shown in Fig. 5 and the Data Comparison for picking thing process shown in Fig. 1 in table 1：

The method shown in Fig. 5 is can be seen that from above-mentioned Data Comparison to be lifted Efficiency again, and be linear lifting.When tunnel number is more than 2 (i.e. pallet quantity is more than 2), The efficiency of method shown in Fig. 5 is higher than the efficiency of the method shown in Fig. 1, and tunnel number or selection number of times are got over Many, the lifting of efficiency is bigger.
