Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative in nature and is in no way intended to limit the invention, its application, or uses. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
The invention provides a scheduling method for idle robot carriers.
In the present invention, a robotic handling vehicle is an intelligent device capable of automatically handling goods. The robotic transport vehicle may transport goods with the aid of a transport tool. For example, a robotic cart may use pallets to transport medium items and pallets to transport small items. The idle robot carrier is a robot carrier that is currently in an idle state and does not perform a carrying task.
FIG. 1 is a flow chart of one embodiment of a method of scheduling robotic vehicles of the present invention. By the scheduling method of the embodiment, the idle robot carriers can be scheduled to the area where the number of the current robot carriers is lower than the minimum configuration number, so that the response time of the idle robot carriers to the picking task is shortened, and the working efficiency of the robot carriers is improved.
As shown in fig. 1, the scheduling method 100 of this embodiment includes:
s102, the warehouse picking area is divided into a plurality of areas.
For example, a static partitioning method or a dynamic partitioning method may be employed to partition the warehouse pick zone into several areas.
The static division method is also called a fixed area division method, and is used for fixedly dividing the warehouse sorting area into a plurality of areas.
The dynamic division method can dynamically divide the warehouse picking area into a plurality of areas according to the aggregation degree of the goods handling tools to be delivered or the aggregation degree of the historical goods handling tools to be delivered. The following embodiments will describe specific implementation procedures of the dynamic partitioning method.
Compared with a static partitioning method, the dynamic partitioning method can reflect the aggregation degree of the goods to be transported more accurately. Compared with the dynamic division method realized according to the aggregation degree of the goods handling tools for ex-warehouse, the dynamic division method realized according to the aggregation degree of the goods handling tools for historical ex-warehouse fully considers the fluctuation of the goods to be handled in time, and can more accurately reflect the current aggregation degree of the goods to be handled.
And S104, determining the area where the number of the current robotic porters is less than the minimum configuration number of the robotic porters, and determining the target area of the idle robotic porters according to the determined area.
In one embodiment, a region having the greatest allocation ratio of robotic vehicles among regions where the number of current robotic vehicles is less than the minimum number of robotic vehicles may be determined as the target region of the idle robotic vehicle.
For example, if the allocation ratio of the robotic vehicles of the area 1 is the largest and the area 1 satisfies the condition that the number of the current robotic vehicles in the area 1 is smaller than the minimum number of the robot vehicles arranged in the area 1, the area 1 is determined as the target area of the idle robotic vehicle. The allocation ratio of the robotic vehicles of zone1 is the largest, and at the allocation ratio of zone2, if zone1 does not satisfy the aforementioned condition, and zone2 satisfies the condition that the number of the robotic vehicles currently in zone2 is smaller than the minimum number of the robotic vehicles allocated in zone2, zone2 is determined as the target zone of the idle robotic vehicle.
In specific implementation, the target region may be determined by the following two methods, for example. The first method is to determine all areas where the number of current robotic vehicles is smaller than the minimum number of robotic vehicles to be deployed, and then determine the area where the allocation ratio of robotic vehicles is the largest among all the areas as the target area of the idle robotic vehicle. The second method is that the areas with the current number of the robot transport vehicles smaller than the minimum configuration number of the robot transport vehicles are searched according to the distribution proportion of the robot transport vehicles from large to small, and the areas which are searched firstly and meet the conditions are determined as the target areas of the idle robot transport vehicles. Compared with the first method, the second method can terminate the searching process for the idle robot transport vehicle once the target area is searched, and processing resources can be saved without traversing all areas.
The minimum number of the robotic trucks arranged in each area may be a fixed value, or may be determined according to the allocation ratio of the robotic trucks in the area and the total investment of the robotic trucks. For example, the product of the allocation ratio of the robotic truck in the area and the total amount of the robotic truck input is rounded down, and the obtained integer value is used as the minimum allocation number of robotic trucks in the area. The formula is expressed as follows:
Mi=rounddown(Ri×N,0)
where Mi represents the minimum number of robot carriers arranged in the area i, RiThe allocation ratio of the robotic vehicles in the area i is shown, N is the total amount of the robotic vehicle input, and rounddown is a function rounded down.
Wherein the allocation ratio for the robotic vehicles of each zone is determined based on the ratio of the number of the goods-handling tools to be delivered in that zone to the total number of the goods-handling tools to be delivered in all zones. Alternatively, the allocation ratio for each of the zones of robotic vehicles may be determined based on a ratio of the historical frequency of the shipment in that zone to the historical total frequency of the shipment in all of the zones. The formula is expressed as follows:
Figure BDA0001221769840000071
wherein R isiAssignment ratio Q of robot carriers in area iiRepresenting the number of cargo handlers to be shipped out of the area i or representing the historical frequency of shipment of the cargo handlers in the area i, and n represents the total number of areas.
And S106, scheduling the idle robot transport vehicle to a target area.
The dispatch station may issue a dispatch instruction to the idle robotic vehicle instructing the idle robotic vehicle to travel to a target area to wait for a next pick task. When a new picking task exists, the idle robot carriers which reach the area where the picking task is located are dispatched to execute the picking task, or the idle robot carriers closest to the picking task are dispatched from the idle robot carriers going to the target area to execute the picking task.
Through the scheme, the idle robot carriers can be pre-adjusted to the area where the number of the current robot carriers is lower than the minimum configuration number, so that the response time of the idle robot carriers to the picking task is shortened, and the working efficiency of the robot carriers is improved.
In addition, if the warehouse picking area is dynamically divided into a plurality of areas according to the aggregation degree of the goods carriers to be delivered in the dispatching process, and/or if the allocation proportion of the robot carriers in each area is determined according to the ratio of the number of the goods carriers to be delivered in the area to the total number of the goods carriers to be delivered in all the areas in the dispatching process, and then the minimum allocation number of the robot carriers in the area is determined, the idle robot carriers can be further preset to the areas with the intensive goods carriers to be delivered, so that the response time of the idle robot carriers to picking tasks is shortened, and the working efficiency of the robot carriers is improved.
Similarly, if the warehouse picking area is dynamically divided into a plurality of areas according to the aggregation degree of the historical delivery goods handling tools in the scheduling, and/or if the allocation proportion of the robot handling vehicles in each area is determined according to the ratio of the historical delivery frequency of the goods handling tools in the area to the historical delivery total frequency of the goods handling tools in all the areas in the scheduling, and then the minimum allocation number of the robot handling vehicles in the area is determined, the idle robot handling vehicles can be further adjusted to the intensive area of the historical delivery goods handling tools in advance, so that the response time of the idle robot handling vehicles to the picking tasks is shortened, and the working efficiency of the robot handling vehicles is improved.
The above scheduling method may be further optimized, and the optimized scheduling method for robotic vehicles is described below in conjunction with fig. 2.
Figure 2 is a flow diagram of another embodiment of a method of scheduling robotic vehicles of the present invention.
As shown in fig. 2, the scheduling method 200 of this embodiment includes:
s202, the warehouse picking area is divided into a plurality of areas.
S204, monitoring whether the electric quantity of the idle robot carrying vehicle reaches a charging threshold value, if the electric quantity of the idle robot carrying vehicle is lower than or equal to the charging threshold value, scheduling the idle robot carrying vehicle to charge the pile, and if the electric quantity of the idle robot carrying vehicle is higher than the charging threshold value, continuing to execute the subsequent steps.
And S206, judging whether the number of the current robot carriers in the area where the idle robot carriers are located is larger than the minimum configuration number of the robot carriers in the area.
If the determination result is no, the area where the idle robot cart is located is determined as the target area of the idle robot cart (S207). Thereby, scheduling idle robotic vehicles too frequently is avoided.
If the determination result is yes, the area where the allocation ratio of the robotic vehicles is the largest among the areas where the number of the current robotic vehicles is smaller than the minimum number of the robotic vehicles is determined as the target area of the idle robotic vehicle (S208).
S210, a position of the conveyance tool near the center position in the target area is selected as a target position.
S212, the idle robotic truck is scheduled to a target location in the target area.
When a new picking task exists, the idle robot carriers which reach the area where the picking task is located are dispatched to execute the picking task, or the idle robot carriers closest to the picking task are dispatched from the idle robot carriers going to the target area to execute the picking task.
By means of the scheme, the response time of the idle robot carrier to the picking task can be shortened, and occupation of warehouse channel resources can be reduced.
The scheduling method for the robotic truck in the foregoing embodiment may implement a scheduling process for a free robotic truck based on information of goods to be delivered from warehouse or based on information of goods delivered from warehouse in history, for example, and the two scheduling methods are specifically described below.
Fig. 3A is a flowchart illustrating a method for scheduling a robotic van based on information of goods to be delivered.
As shown in fig. 3A, the scheduling method 300 of this embodiment includes:
s302, the warehouse picking area is divided into a plurality of areas according to the aggregation degree of the goods carrying tools to be delivered.
Specifically, the goods handling tools to be delivered are clustered according to the position distribution information of the goods handling tools to be delivered, and a goods handling tool gathering area to be delivered corresponding to each cluster is used as an area. The clustering method can be realized by adopting a k-means clustering algorithm, for example. Fig. 3B is a diagram illustrating the result of Zone division according to the degree of aggregation of the to-be-out cargo handlers, and the warehouse pick Zone is divided into 6 zones, which are respectively represented as Zone1, Zone2, Zone3, Zone4, Zone5, and Zone 6.
Then, optionally, steps S304 and S306 are performed, or step S308 is directly performed.
S304, monitoring whether the electric quantity of the idle robot carrying vehicle reaches a charging threshold value, if the electric quantity of the idle robot carrying vehicle is lower than or equal to the charging threshold value, scheduling the idle robot carrying vehicle to charge the pile, and if the electric quantity of the idle robot carrying vehicle is higher than the charging threshold value, continuing to execute the subsequent steps.
S306, it is determined whether the current number of robotic vehicles in the area where the idle robotic vehicle is located is greater than the minimum number of robotic vehicles in the area (the first number of robotic vehicles).
Wherein the minimum allocation quantity (first allocation quantity) of the robotic vehicles is determined according to the allocation ratio of the robotic vehicles in the area and the total input quantity of the robotic vehicles, and the allocation ratio of the robotic vehicles in the area is determined according to the ratio of the number of the goods-handling tools to be delivered in the area to the total number of the goods-handling tools to be delivered in all the areas.
If the determination result is no, the area where the idle robot cart is located is determined as the target area of the idle robot cart (S307). Thereby, scheduling idle robotic vehicles too frequently is avoided.
If the determination result is yes, an area where the allocation ratio of the robot carriers is the largest among areas where the number of the current robot carriers is smaller than the minimum number of the robot carriers (first number of the robot carriers) is determined as a target area of the idle robot carrier (S308).
Then, optionally, step S310 is performed, or step S312 is directly performed.
S310, a position of the conveyance tool near the center position in the target area is selected as a target position.
S312, the idle robotic truck is scheduled to a target area or a target location.
By means of the scheme, the response time of the idle robot carrier to the picking task can be shortened, and occupation of warehouse channel resources can be reduced. In addition, based on the scheduling scheme realized by the information of the goods to be delivered, the region division can more accurately reflect the aggregation degree of the goods to be transported, and can more accurately determine the allocation proportion of the robot carrying vehicles in each region, so that the idle robot carrying vehicles are pre-adjusted to the regions with dense goods carrying tools to be delivered, and the scheduling efficiency of the idle robot carrying vehicles is further improved.
FIG. 4 is a flowchart illustrating a method for implementing scheduling of robotic vehicles based on historical shipment information.
As shown in fig. 4, the scheduling method 400 of this embodiment includes:
s402, the warehouse sorting area is dynamically divided into a plurality of areas according to the aggregation degree of the historical goods carrying tools which are out of the warehouse.
Specifically, the historical ex-warehouse cargo handling tools are clustered according to the position distribution information and ex-warehouse frequency information of the historical ex-warehouse cargo handling tools, and a historical ex-warehouse cargo handling tool gathering area corresponding to each cluster is used as one area.
Then, optionally, steps S404 and S406 are performed, or step S408 is directly performed.
S404, monitoring whether the electric quantity of the idle robot carrying vehicle reaches a charging threshold value, if the electric quantity of the idle robot carrying vehicle is lower than or equal to the charging threshold value, scheduling the idle robot carrying vehicle to charge the pile, and if the electric quantity of the idle robot carrying vehicle is higher than the charging threshold value, continuing to execute the subsequent steps.
S406, it is determined whether the current number of the robotic vehicles in the area where the idle robotic vehicle is located is greater than the minimum number of the robotic vehicles arranged in the area (the second number of the robotic vehicles arranged).
Wherein the minimum allocation quantity (second allocation quantity) of the robotic vehicles is determined according to the allocation ratio of the robotic vehicles in the area and the total investment of the robotic vehicles, and the allocation ratio of the robotic vehicles in the area is determined according to the ratio of the historical frequency of delivery of the goods handling tools in the area to the historical frequency of delivery of the goods handling tools in all areas.
If the determination result is no, the area where the idle robot cart is located is determined as the target area of the idle robot cart (S407). Thereby, scheduling idle robotic vehicles too frequently is avoided.
If the determination result is yes, an area where the allocation ratio of the robot carriers is the largest among areas where the number of the current robot carriers is smaller than the minimum number of the robot carriers (second number of the robot carriers) is determined as the target area of the idle robot carrier (S408).
Then, optionally, step S410 is performed, or step S412 is directly performed.
And S410, selecting the position of the conveying tool close to the central position in the target area as a target position.
And S412, scheduling the idle robot truck to the target area or the target position.
By means of the scheme, the response time of the idle robot carrier to the picking task can be shortened, and occupation of warehouse channel resources can be reduced. In addition, based on the scheduling scheme realized by the historical warehouse-out goods information, the region division can more accurately reflect the aggregation degree of the historical warehouse-out goods, and can more accurately determine the allocation proportion of the robot carrying vehicles in each region, so that the idle robot carrying vehicles are scheduled to the regions with dense historical warehouse-out goods carrying tools in advance, and the scheduling efficiency of the idle robot carrying vehicles is further improved.
Assuming that the reduction amount of the response time of each robot carrier to a new task after being idle at every time is T, the total number of the robot carriers is N, the idle frequency of the robot carriers is F, and the total saved time is as follows:
