and S110, receiving an operation request of a user.
Preferably, the operation request of the user includes: inventory requests or pick-up requests.
Further, after receiving different operation requests of the user, the corresponding operation flow can be executed.
And S120, confirming two or more shelf positions for placing the tray according to the operation request.
Preferably, the positions of two or more trays on the shelves of the smart bin where the trays can be placed are confirmed according to the operation request.
S130, determining two or more preset paths between the tray and two or more shelf positions.
Preferably, the two or more shelf positions comprise: a first shelf position and a second shelf position. A first path between the tray and the first shelf location and a second path between the tray and the second shelf location are identified based on the first shelf location and the second shelf location. That is, the two or more preset paths include: a first path and a second path.
And S140, confirming a target position for placing the tray according to the path with the minimum power consumption in the movement of the tray in the two or more preset paths.
Because the power consumption of the tray driven by the motor to move in the vertical direction is different from the power consumption of the tray driven by the motor to move in the horizontal direction by the same distance, the types of the motors used for lifting or translating the tray are often different, and the tray is unlikely to be moved more power-saving by selecting a shorter path of two or more preset paths, the power consumption required by the movement of the tray according to each preset path is calculated according to the parameters of the two or more preset paths and the tray.
Wherein the parameters of the tray may include: the weight of the pallet and/or the weight of the goods in the pallet. And respectively calculating the power consumption of the tray according to the first path and the second path by a power consumption calculation algorithm according to the parameters of the tray, the parameters of the motor, the length of the first path and the length of the second path.
Secondly, according to the calculation result, a path where the tray moves with the minimum power consumption is determined.
And finally, confirming that the corresponding shelf position is the target position for placing the tray according to the path with the minimum power consumption for moving the tray.
And S150, moving the tray to a shelf according to the target position and a path with the minimum power consumption of the tray movement.

Specifically, because the power consumption of the tray driven by the motor to move in the vertical direction is different from the power consumption of the tray driven by the motor to move in the horizontal direction by the same distance, the types of the motors used for lifting or translating the tray are often different, and selecting a shorter path of two or more preset paths does not necessarily enable the tray to move more efficiently, the power consumption required by the movement of the tray according to each preset path is firstly calculated according to the parameters of the two or more preset paths and the tray.
Wherein the parameters of the tray include: the weight of the pallet and the weight of the goods in the pallet. And respectively calculating the power consumption of the tray according to the first path and the second path by a power consumption calculation algorithm according to the parameters of the tray, the parameters of the motor, the length of the first path and the length of the second path.
