Detailed description of the invention
Figure 1A and Figure 1B illustrates batch order means of performance for representing the relevant technologies.
Fig. 2A-Fig. 2 E illustrates batch order means of performance of embodiment according to the present invention.
Specific embodiment
Figure 1A and Figure 1B illustrates batch order means of performance for representing the relevant technologies.In figure 1A, picking machine 10 is divided With first order, second order and third order, each order includes the multiple units that will be picked.It is opened from starting point Begin, picking machine picks the unit that will be picked by advancing to the end point in picking path along picking path, to complete First order, second order and third order.Then the process of Figure 1A is repeated in fig. ib, and picking machine is assigned at this time Three new orders, that is, the 4th order, the 5th order and the 6th order.Since starting point, picking machine is by along picking Goods path advances to the end point in picking path to pick the unit that will be picked, thus complete the 4th order, the 5th order Single and the 6th order.At the end of two complete pickings recycle, picking machine two can take second place passing by around picking path Six orders are completed afterwards.
It is completed at the difference along picking path by order and as order is completed, picking machine becomes efficiency and gets over Carry out the lower fact, the poor efficiency of this method is obvious.If picking machine is started and with " N " a order along route Advance, finally complete one of these orders, then this batch now becomes batch of only N-1 order.This drop of picking engine efficiency Low continuation, until this batch becomes the only 1 remaining order with the remaining unit that will be picked.Therefore, it is picked in primary pass by At the end of goods path, picking machine only carries out picking to " N " a order.
Fig. 2A-E illustrates batch order means of performance of embodiment according to the present invention.In fig. 2, picking machine 20 Being assigned first order, second order and third order, each order includes the multiple units that will be picked.From starting Point starts, and picking machine picks the unit that will be picked by advancing until one of order is completed along picking path.? In this case, when picking article from container 53, third order is completed.At this point, picking machine 20 be assigned new order (that is, 4th order), and the traveling of picking path is continued on, while ordering as shown in Figure 2 B to first order, second Single and the 4th order carries out picking, until one of order is completed.In this case, when picking article from container 63 When, first order is completed.At this point, picking machine 20 is assigned another new order (that is, the 5th order), and continues on and pick Goods path is advanced, while carrying out picking to second order, the 4th order and the 5th order like that as shown in Figure 2 C, until Until one of order is completed.In this case, when picking article from container 62, second order is completed.At this point, picking machine 20 are assigned another new order (that is, the 6th order), and continue on the traveling of picking path, while as shown in Figure 2 D like that Picking is carried out to the 4th order, the 5th order and the 6th order, until one of order is completed.In such case Under, when picking article from container 12, the 4th order is completed.At this point, picking machine 20 is assigned another new order (that is, the 7th A order), and continue on picking path traveling, while as shown in Figure 2 E like that the 5th order, the 6th order and 7th order carries out picking.It is readily apparent that at the end of two complete cycles, picking machine can be in picking of passing by At least seven orders are completed after twice in path.
Although being completed at the difference along picking path by order, new order is assigned, and picking machine The fact that keep efficiency, the efficiency of the raising of the method for Fig. 2A -2E is obvious." it should persistently criticize (perpetual Batch) " for method, same picking machine can be expert at same distance while complete more orders.
It will be appreciated that method described above is an exemplary implementation scheme, and batch order means of performance can be with Including variation described above and supplementary features, some in these features are described below.
The implementation of Fig. 2A -2E exemplifies first order, second order and third order, these orders and will be added To trolley, so that third order is completed before first order and second order are completed.However, according to the present invention Preferred embodiment, first order will be completed before second order is completed, and second order is completed in third order It completes before.
In order to understand why order will be completed by assignment order, understand that specific theory is helpful for preferred embodiment 's.Specifically, the picking route for generally including multiple channels (fully being shown in figure) can be expanded for virtual " circle ".It picks Goods route indicates the picking path that the place started at it terminates, and therefore, picking route can be expanded for theoretical " circle ".Picking line Each picking position in road can then use degree or radian on the circle of Zhou Changwei " C " to indicate, wherein " C " indicates to advance whole Distance needed for a picking path.Each position indicates the special angle on this circle.The distance between picking position can be used Difference between current location angle on " circle " and " angle " of picking position (one or more) indicates.When at the beginning, when When there is no order to be assigned to a batch, each of queue of system reviews order to be processed order, and it is based on batch processing The current location of trolley (batch cart) is determined apart from the factor.This is apart from factor representation along picking path from picking road Distance needed for completion order is played in current location on diameter.Then the order with the minimum allowable distance factor is added to this batch.? In the case where empty station vehicle, these orders are added based on " N " a order with the minimum range factor from being most short to longest ranking It is added to this batch.Therefore, first order will be the smallest order of travel distance from current location, therefore will be completion First order.Therefore, third order is completed before will not be in first order.It is also pointed out that around picking " circle " Moving direction always same direction.The order for needing picking machine to move backward on picking path will not be selected.
Once trolley operation is normal, and new order is assigned to this batch, and newly added order (one or more) can It can be completed earlier than the allocated old order.When order pond to be processed is dynamically changed based on the order that whole day is received from client When change, such case exists.Therefore, pond to be processed is dynamic rather than fixed indent queue.
In one embodiment, picking machine can be the mobile picking trolley for having designated position for each order. For example, trolley can only have a designated position " N " for keeping order.According to the method for Figure 1A-Figure 1B, when order is completed When, the service efficiency of trolley is low, and the efficiency of trolley becomes lower.If trolley started with the order of " N " a distribution and Advance along route, finally complete one of order, then this batch for distributing to trolley now becomes a batch of only N-1 order. This reduction of trolley efficiency continues, until this batch becomes the only one remaining order with the unit that will be picked.Therefore, Pass by one time picking path at the end of, trolley only to " N " a order carry out picking.However, having by " persistently criticizing " method The identical trolley of a position " N " can complete the order a far more than " N " in traveling same distance.
In addition, mobile picking trolley can be RF trolley.RF trolley be using be installed to mobile trolley used hardware without paper Order fulfillment system.RF trolley provides the method for once carrying out picking to multiple orders when passing through the one-stroke in warehouse, so that Order-picking machine is more acurrate, more fruitful.RF trolley is that control and and centralized computer system are carried out via RF network It is communicated, the computer of real-time response and report is provided.Picking machine is directed to warehouse by peak efficiency route and picked by the system Goods yard is set, and minimizes travel distance, while fulfiling multiple orders immediately.However, RF trolley is only to be made in batch goods sorting method One exemplary mobile picking trolley.This method can be applied to any operation that batch picking is carried out to order, but regardless of Whether RF trolley is just utilized.This can with RF terminal, speech recognition or picking slide plate (substantially RF trolley, but not with The wheel advanced on the adjacent conveyer in picking position) it is used together.
On the one hand, there are a kind of batch order fulfillment systems in order to realize the above method.The system may include guide System and distribution system, they may be integrally incorporated to together or separate.Guidance system is by the traveling for substantially minimizing picking machine Picking machine is directed to the article that will be picked by the logic traveling sequence of time.Distribution system is complete in one of the order being previously assigned At later will including that the new orders of the multiple articles that will be picked distributes to picking machine.Guidance system may include for for example may be used The system for audibly or visually guiding picking machine, or may include for controlling vehicle associated with picking machine or trolley Mobile system.Distribution system may include that the new order among the multiple available orders picked will be distributed to picking machine Computer system or other controllers.The computer system or controller can be separated with picking machine, but be carried out with picking machine It communicates or the computer system can be used as trolley or a part of vehicle is advanced together with picking machine.
On the other hand, there may be the computers with the computer readable program code being included in can use Jie Matter, the computer readable program code are suitable for being executable to implement batch order means of performance.For this respect, picking is controlled The software creation batch of process.Although assigned order can be randomly selected or selected by using general-purpose algorithm, Be be preferably based on increase since new order to be distributed to the traveling time of picking machine caused by picking machine select by Assigned order, or can based on from picking path the minimum travel distance currently lighted or the time come select will be by The order of distribution.In this case, the software can be based on find can be from when the front chassis position or from last The order that the minimum amount of travel of the position for the article picked is completed is by Order splitting to picking machine or trolley.
In addition, on the other hand, dedicated starting point or endpoint is not present.In this case, multiple trolleys or picking Machine can be randomly scattered through on entire picking route.This distribution of trolley or picking machine is avoided when multiple picking machines while row Necessary collision and pass through requirement when into picking route.
In the case where multiple trolleys, when picking process starts, for each trolley in system, the software is based on Can in most short travel distance or most short traveling time " N " a order for completing select the quantity with the order location on trolley " N " a order accordingly.Sorter completes picking, until he/her reaches the place of order completion.Can on the car or Person removes and places order in indent queue is completed on the conveyer that order is transported to shipping area.The software Then can be determined from all available orders which order can be assigned on trolley can in minimum travel distance or most The releasing position that small traveling time is completed.The order is assigned to releasing position, and picking continues.With can with minimum advance The process that order is completed is replaced ad infinitum to continue by the new order of picking, until all orders are all completed.
Further it is possible that can be for distribution rather than most short travel distance or most short traveling time select to order It is single.However, inventor it is generally understood that, the picking time will substantially minimize, and when being added to the order of this batch with most When short distance is completed, there are the quantity for " operating " order completed each time of picking circulation.In the presence of based on concomitant selection Other batch of optimisation technique of order, wherein it is not based on the distance to be completed selection order, but based on common article (SKU) order is selected.According to simulation analysis, the distance offer optimum efficiency for completing order is minimized, but the present invention is unlimited In the selection method.
The benefit of embodiment described above is that " N " a position trolley always once carries out picking to " N " a order. This provides the efficiency more much higher than conventional method, and in conventional method, since batch size reduces as order is completed, trolley is gradually Gradually become efficiency reduction.
Another benefit of embodiment described above is randomness of the method based on the article position in warehouse And it generates.It is randomly dispersed in large numbers of items on entire picking route and actually makes the system more efficiently, because being not present Starting point and endpoint.This reduces many SKU management roles and associated labour for storehouse management person and removes with by article To remove the layover time of decorrelation connection.
Another is characterized in a possibility that handling " individual unit order (Single Unit Orders) ".For consumption In many guidance of person's order fulfillment operation, size of order is usually individual unit.Persistently criticizing method may be implemented to single list First order carries out the ability of picking.For example, single (preferably, the biggish) order location on batch processing trolley can be exclusively used in Receive individual unit order.If article resides between the current location on picking path and next batch of picking position, Can by be in system individual unit any order be dynamically assigned to it is each individually batch.Therefore, any individual unit Order is not useable in criticizing.These orders are added to any batch processing trolley for passing through warehouse location by chance.Work as platform When individual unit order location filling on vehicle, it is removed, and it is sent to secondary processing station, in secondary processing station, It removes each article and the article is dynamically distributed into an order.Because each of these orders are used as individual unit quilt It completes, so not requiring order integrality until it reaches secondary processing (shipment) station.
In order to provide further describing for individual unit order shipment, substantially, the individual unit order comprising batch picking Container, chest or other storage media taken out from trolley and be delivered to shipment station.The station is commonly equipped with calculating Machine, monitor (in general, touch screen), bar code scanner, label machine (label printer) and weighing apparatus.Because of hand Each of handbag article indicates unique individual order, so each article itself is a shipment cargo.Ship work Operator at position scans the mark bar code on the product, which is placed into pig usually from container extract product Or in big envelope, and the article is placed on weighing apparatus.The software is found from its database only needs the article (SKU) (queuing) order to be processed, shipping charges are calculated based on Shipping Address and weight, and be printed for the dress of the order Transport label (shipping label) and packing slip.The process continues each article in container.
It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that because many pickings operation includes manually being pushed through picking road The trolley of line, therefore, picking machine are being walked, so using word " at walking (walking) " or " walking (walk) ".The present invention It is not limited to using trolley or needs the case where walking.The present invention is applied to any situation using any type of batch of picking, and Either automatically, still manually.Additionally, this invention is not limited to the use of batch picking trolley, select to criticize picking trolley be for The description process, because it is the common implementation of the technology.For example, can use conveyer, automatically guided vehicle, Delivery board or other transmission methods other than walking.
Although for purposes of illustration based on the implementation for being currently considered to most practical preferred embodiment Scheme to the present invention have been described in detail, it is to be appreciated that, such details is used for the purpose of the purpose, and this hair It is bright to be not limited to disclosed embodiment, but on the contrary, it is intended to cover modification in spirit and scope of the appended claims and Equivalent arrangements.Such as, it is to be understood that it is contemplated that in the range of as far as possible, any embodiment it is one or more A feature can be combined with one or more features of any other embodiment.
