Detailed Description
The technical scheme of the invention is further explained by the specific implementation mode in combination with the attached drawings. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not limiting of the invention. It should be further noted that, for the convenience of description, only some of the structures related to the present invention are shown in the drawings, not all of the structures.
Before discussing exemplary embodiments in more detail, it should be noted that some exemplary embodiments are described as processes or methods depicted as flowcharts. Although a flowchart may describe the steps as a sequential process, many of the steps can be performed in parallel, concurrently or simultaneously. In addition, the order of the steps may be rearranged. The process may be terminated when its operations are completed, but may have additional steps not included in the figure. The processes may correspond to methods, functions, procedures, subroutines, and the like.
Fig. 1 is a schematic flow chart of a sorting plan configuration method according to an embodiment of the present invention, which may be executed by a sorting plan configuration apparatus, where the apparatus may be implemented by software and/or hardware, and may be generally integrated in a computer device. As shown in fig. 1, the method includes:
step 101, obtaining information of goods to be sorted corresponding to a current sorting cycle.
The information of the goods to be sorted comprises the types of the goods to be sorted and the quantity corresponding to each type of the goods.
For example, the computer device in the embodiment of the present invention may be a part of a sorting system, and may be a control device to establish a connection with a sorting device in a wired or wireless manner. The sorting equipment may comprise a sorting machine for sorting the goods according to a sorting plan, and the type of the sorting machine is not limited by the embodiment of the invention, and the sorting machine may be a slide block sorting machine or a belt sorting machine, for example.
In the related art, the sorting of goods is generally performed in a cycle unit, for example, a sorting operation is performed in a unit of a batch in which a plurality of orders are collected, and the sorting batch may also be referred to as a wave number. The goods in each wave may be considered known before the wave starts, such as what kinds of goods need to be sorted, what the number of each kind of goods is, etc., but the known information in different waves may be widely different, such as 10 for the number of the kind of goods a in the first wave, 500 for the number of the kind of goods a in the second wave, etc. In general, the sorting plans on which the sorting plants rely when performing sorting operations are stored in upstream systems and adjusted in a relatively long cycle. The sort plan may generally include information such as the configuration of the sort lanes (e.g., chutes) that are responsible for receiving what sort or sorts of items are for a sort lane. The inventor finds that for the condition that the known information difference is large in different wave times, the relatively-solidified or static sorting plan configuration scheme cannot meet the requirement, so that the sorting equipment resources cannot be reasonably utilized, the sorting efficiency is low, and the waste of operation cost such as manpower and material resources is caused.
For ease of understanding, the disadvantages of the sorting plan configuration scheme of the related art are described next for a specific scenario. Taking a return warehouse as an example, the warehouse receives return goods of finished vehicles and stores corresponding return goods according to suppliers who pull the return goods regularly. In this scenario, returns arrive at the warehouse via a transport vehicle such as a truck in wave-passes, each wave of arriving packages being known before the wave begins, i.e., the sorting requirements are known, but the returns per wave may be highly uneven. After the vehicle arrives and is manually checked, returned commodities are placed on the sorting machine, the sorting machine divides returned commodities to corresponding slideways according to a static sorting plan distributed by an upstream system, and after collection is finished, the returned commodities are manually transported to a goods shelf to wait for a supplier to pick up the returned commodities. For such scenarios, the existing static sort plans will cause the following problems: the returned goods types arriving at each pass are not completely the same, the configuration of the slide ways cannot be flexibly adjusted, for example, for a certain slide way, the first pass may be busy, and the second pass may be idle, if a large number of returned goods need to be sorted through the same slide way for the current pass, some returned goods types cannot be sorted in time; the uneven work of the slideway causes influence on worker class assignment; the overall efficiency of the sorter is reduced.
In the embodiment of the invention, when the goods in the current sorting period need to be sorted, the information of the goods to be sorted corresponding to the current sorting period is firstly obtained for making a targeted sorting plan. The source of the information of the goods to be sorted is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention, and may be obtained from, for example, a goods management device or an order management device of an upstream system. The information of the goods to be sorted comprises the types of the goods to be sorted and the quantity corresponding to each type of the goods. For example, the goods category may be expressed in Stock Keeping Units (SKUs), which is the smallest Unit of inventory of goods. For example, a certain mobile phone has multiple SKUs, such as 16G white, 16G gold, 64G white, 64G gold, etc. The information of the goods to be sorted may further include information such as a size of the goods and a weight of the goods, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited.
And 102, determining a target sorting plan corresponding to the current sorting period according to the information of the goods to be sorted.
For example, the target sorting plan may include information about the configuration of sorting lanes (e.g., chutes) of the sorting equipment during the current sorting cycle. For example, for a sorting channel, the sorting channel is in an idle state or an operating state in the current sorting cycle, and if the sorting channel is in the operating state, the sorting channel needs to be responsible for receiving what kind or kinds of goods to be sorted, and the like. Or, for a sort of goods to be sorted, to which sort lane the goods of that sort should be assigned, etc. Since the information of the goods to be sorted is known at present, and the information of the number and the positions of the sorting channels are also known, the target sorting plan can be determined according to a preset rule or a preset algorithm. The preset rule or the preset algorithm may be set according to actual operation requirements, for example, the preset rule or the preset algorithm is set based on an angle such as maximization of a sorting channel utilization rate or minimization of a transportation cost, and a specific setting mode of the embodiment of the present invention is not limited.
And 103, distributing the target sorting plan to corresponding sorting equipment to instruct the sorting equipment to execute the sorting operation corresponding to the current sorting cycle according to the target sorting plan.
For example, for a warehouse center, there may be multiple or multiple groups of sorting devices, and in this step, the target sorting plan is assigned to the sorting device for executing the sorting operation of the current sorting cycle, so as to instruct the sorting device to execute the sorting operation corresponding to the current sorting cycle according to the target sorting plan.
According to the sorting plan configuration method provided by the embodiment of the invention, when the goods in the current sorting cycle need to be sorted, the information of the goods to be sorted, which comprises the types of the goods to be sorted and the quantity corresponding to each type of the goods, corresponding to the current sorting cycle is firstly obtained, then the target sorting plan corresponding to the current sorting cycle is determined according to the information of the goods to be sorted, and finally the target sorting plan is distributed to the corresponding sorting equipment so as to instruct the sorting equipment to execute the sorting operation corresponding to the current sorting cycle according to the target sorting plan. By adopting the technical means, the configuration scheme of the existing sorting plan is optimized, the existing sorting plan is not dependent on the solidified sorting plan any more, but the targeted sorting plan is dynamically determined according to the known goods information in the current sorting period, and the technical effect that the sorting equipment can be utilized more flexibly and reasonably is achieved.
Fig. 2 is a schematic flow chart of another sorting plan configuration method according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, the method includes the following steps:
step 201, obtaining information of goods to be sorted corresponding to the current sorting cycle.
The information of the goods to be sorted comprises the types of the goods to be sorted and the quantity corresponding to each type of the goods.
Step 202, inputting information of goods to be sorted into a preset objective function and a preset constraint condition.
In the embodiment of the invention, the preset objective function can be a function set according to actual operation requirements, a value range corresponding to the preset objective function is set according to an actual sorting effect to be achieved, then parameter values in the feasible solution or the optimal solution of the preset objective function are determined by solving the feasible solution or the optimal solution, and a corresponding target sorting plan is formulated. In the process of solving the preset objective function, a preset constraint condition can be set, so that the solution is more in line with the actual sorting scene.
The embodiment of the invention does not limit the specific preset constraint condition, and can be set according to the actual requirement. Illustratively, the preset constraints include at least one of:
(1) one sorting channel corresponds to a unique configuration mode, wherein the configuration mode comprises the quantity of the types of goods to be sorted corresponding to the sorting channel.
For sorting equipment, a plurality of sorting channels are configured, all goods to be sorted generally arrive at the sorting equipment from a unified inlet, the sorting equipment identifies the current goods, determines the corresponding sorting channels, distributes the current goods to the sorting channels, and conveys the current goods to a specified position by using the sorting channels, so that the sorting operation of different goods is realized. For one sort lane, it can be configured to be unused, 1 to 1 dedicated, 1 to 4 dedicated, and 1 to ∞ etc. The non-use indicates that the sorting channel is in an idle state in the current sorting period, namely the sorting channel is not opened during the sorting in the current sorting period; 1 to 1 specially indicates that the sorting channel is only responsible for conveying 1 goods to be sorted in the current sorting period; 1 to 4 special purpose means that the sorting channel is responsible for conveying 4 goods types to be sorted in the current sorting period; 1 to ∞ indicates that the sorting channel can be responsible for transporting any number of categories of goods to be sorted during the current sorting cycle. The above numbers are only used for illustration, and the number of the types of the goods to be sorted supported by the configurable chute can be set to be a series of integers larger than 0 according to actual needs, for example, 1 to 3, 1 to 5, 1 to 8, and the like can also be used.
(2) One sort of goods to be sorted is assigned to a single sorting lane.
After the goods are carried to assigned position by the letter sorting passageway, generally need the manual work to carry to assigned goods shelves on, in order to facilitate transport and goods management, a goods kind of waiting to classify need be assigned to only letter sorting passageway.
(3) The distribution condition of the goods to be sorted is adapted to the configuration mode of the sorting channel.
Illustratively, if the sorting channel is configured to be unused, no goods can be allocated; if the sorting lanes are configured to be 1-to-4 dedicated, then 4 goods categories to be sorted need to be allocated. Therefore, the distribution of the goods to be sorted and the arrangement of the sorting channels need to be adapted to each other.
(4) The distribution condition of the goods to be sorted meets a preset rejection relation, wherein the preset rejection relation comprises the goods to be sorted which cannot be distributed to the same sorting channel.
For example, some goods to be sorted cannot or are not suitable to be allocated to the same sorting passage due to manual efficiency or the property of the goods type itself, and therefore, the preset rejection relationship may be set in advance.
(5) For any two sorting passes, the difference in sorting quantity is less than or equal to a preset threshold.
By way of example, the sorting quantity is understood to be the total quantity of goods that the sorting channel is responsible for conveying. In order to make the work of each sorting channel more uniform, the sorting amount of the sorting channels can be limited to a certain extent, and for any two sorting channels, the difference value of the sorting amount is controlled to be smaller than or equal to a preset threshold value.
(6) All sorts the passageway and all has corresponding configuration mode, and all wait to sort goods kind and all have corresponding letter sorting passageway.
For example, in order to make the sorting channels effectively utilized, all the sorting channels have corresponding configuration modes; in order to avoid omission of the sorted goods types, all goods types to be sorted have corresponding sorting channels.
In order to solve the preset objective function conveniently, a mathematical model of the preset constraint condition can be established. For example, mathematical expressions for determining the preset constraints are given below, and it is understood that the following expressions are only illustrative and that other expressions may be present for determining the preset constraints.

xijIndicating that the goods with the goods category i are distributed to the sorting passage j; q represents a maximum integer; g represents the preset threshold value.
In some embodiments, G may be determined based on an average of the quantities corresponding to each category of goods to be sorted. For example, G may be determined based on the following expression:
Figure BDA0001953514920000102
β > 0. optionally, when solving the target preset function, β may be set to 1, and if there is no feasible solution, the number of the feasible solutions is increased until a feasible solution is found.
In the embodiment of the invention, the preset objective function can be determined according to actual requirements. For example, the preset objective function can be determined according to an assembly original for transporting the sorted goods to the storage area, and the advantage of the arrangement is that the transportation cost after sorting can be reasonably controlled; the preset objective function can also be determined according to the total number of sorting channels configured to correspond to an unlimited number of cargo types, and the arrangement has the advantages of reducing the uncertainty of the sorting channel configuration and improving the stability of the whole system. Optionally, the preset objective function includes a first part and a second part, wherein the first part includes a total cost of transporting the sorted goods to the storage area, and the second part includes a total number of sorting channels configured to correspond to an unlimited number of goods types, which is advantageous in that the stability of the system and the control of the transportation cost can be considered.
For example, the following mathematical expressions for determining the preset objective function are given, and it is understood that the following expressions are only illustrative and that other expressions may be present for determining the preset objective function.
For example, the total cost of transporting the sorted goods to the storage area may be determined according to the following expression:
Figure BDA0001953514920000103
wherein S is a set of goods to be sorted, and for any i ∈ S, NiIs the number corresponding to the type of the goods to be sorted, L is the set of all sorting channels, and
Figure BDA0001953514920000111
xijindicating that the goods with the goods category i are distributed to the sorting passage j;ijrepresenting the cost of transporting goods of the goods category i from the sorting lane j to the corresponding storage area.
For example, the total number of sorting lanes configured to correspond to an unlimited number of cargo categories may be determined according to the following expression:
Figure BDA0001953514920000112
wherein L is allA set of pick-up channels;∞jthe configuration mode of the sorting channel is 1 pair of unlimited quantity of goods to be sorted; c denotes the configuration of the sorting pass to a penalty of 1 for an unlimited number of categories of goods to be sorted.
In some embodiments, C may be determined based on an average of the number corresponding to each category of goods to be sorted and/or an average of the cost of transporting the goods from the sorting lane to the corresponding storage area.
For example, C may be determined based on the following expression:
Figure BDA0001953514920000113
wherein α is more than or equal to 1.
When the preset objective function includes a first portion and a second portion, the preset objective function may be determined based on the following expression:
Figure BDA0001953514920000114
for example, after determining the expressions corresponding to the preset objective function and the preset constraint condition, the corresponding data in the information of the goods to be sorted may be input into the preset objective function and the preset constraint condition for subsequent solving operation.
Optionally, the value of α in C provided above may be selected according to the emphasis on the first part and the second part in the preset objective function.
And step 203, solving a feasible solution of the preset objective function according to the preset constraint condition.
Illustratively, taking the preset objective function provided above as an example, when a feasible solution of the preset objective function is obtained according to the preset constraint condition, a value of the preset objective function may be minimized, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling transportation cost or considering system stability.
And 204, determining a target sorting plan corresponding to the current sorting period according to the feasible solution.
And step 205, distributing the target sorting plan to the corresponding sorting equipment to instruct the sorting equipment to execute the sorting operation corresponding to the current sorting cycle according to the target sorting plan.
According to the sorting plan configuration method provided by the embodiment of the invention, when the goods in the current sorting cycle need to be sorted, the information of the goods to be sorted corresponding to the current sorting cycle is firstly obtained, then the information of the goods to be sorted is input into the preset objective function and the preset constraint condition, and the feasible solution of the preset function is obtained according to the preset constraint condition, so that the objective sorting plan corresponding to the current sorting cycle is quickly and reasonably determined according to the feasible solution and is used for being distributed to the corresponding sorting equipment, the sorting equipment is instructed to pertinently execute the sorting operation corresponding to the current sorting cycle according to the objective sorting plan, the sorting operation is more suitable for the sorting requirement of the current sorting cycle, the equipment resources and the artificial resources are more effectively utilized, and the sorting efficiency is improved.
Fig. 3 is a schematic flow chart of another sorting plan configuration method according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 3, the method includes:
301, obtaining information of goods to be sorted corresponding to the current sorting period.
The information of the goods to be sorted comprises the types of the goods to be sorted and the quantity corresponding to each type of the goods.
Step 302, for each cargo type included in the information of the cargo to be sorted, if the quantity corresponding to the current cargo type is within the preset quantity range, the current cargo type is classified into a first cargo type set, and if the quantity corresponding to the current cargo type is outside the preset quantity range, the current cargo type is classified into a second cargo type set.
For example, a quantity-based prescreening may be performed for each cargo category by setting a preset quantity range. The preset number range can be set according to actual requirements, and the embodiment of the invention is not limited. For example, the preset quantity range is [ min _ N, max _ N ], for the current cargo category, if the quantity is less than min _ N, the quantity is too small to occupy the sorting channel for sorting, and if the quantity is greater than max _ N, the quantity is too large, which may cause unreasonable occupation of the sorting channel. In the embodiment of the invention, the goods types outside the preset quantity range can be screened out for targeted unified treatment, so that the configuration of the sorting channel is more reasonable.
And 303, inputting information of the goods to be sorted corresponding to the first goods category set into a preset objective function and a preset constraint condition.
And step 304, calculating a feasible solution of the preset objective function according to preset constraint conditions.
And 305, determining a target sorting plan corresponding to the current sorting period according to the feasible solution.
Step 306, sending the first goods category set, the second goods category set and the target sorting plan to corresponding sorting equipment, so as to instruct the sorting equipment to execute sorting operation corresponding to the first goods category set in the current sorting cycle according to the target sorting plan, and execute sorting operation corresponding to the second goods category set in the current sorting cycle according to a preset strategy.
Illustratively, the target sort plan is executed for a moderate number of first sets of cargo categories, while the sort operation is executed using a preset strategy for a lesser or greater number of second sets of cargo categories. The preset strategy may be, for example, for a small number of goods of the goods category, collecting the goods by being collected at a unified sorting road junction, and for a large number of goods of the goods category, each goods category is arranged at an independent sorting road junction to be collected or distributed to a flood discharge port. Of course, other preset policies may also exist, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited.
In the embodiment of the invention, before the target sorting plan is prepared, the quantity-based primary screening is firstly carried out on each cargo type by setting the preset quantity range, the cargo types outside the preset quantity range are screened out and are subjected to targeted unified processing, the target sorting plan is prepared according to the information of the cargo types within the preset quantity range, and finally, sorting equipment is instructed to carry out targeted sorting operation on the cargoes aggregated by two cargo types according to different processing modes, so that the configuration of sorting channels is more reasonable, and the sorting efficiency is further improved.
Fig. 4 is a schematic flowchart of a further sorting plan configuration method according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 4, the method includes:
step 401, acquiring SKU information corresponding to the current time from the upstream order management device.
Let S be the set of all SKUs that need to be sorted for that pass, | S | be the total number of SKUs | for any SKU i ∈ S, NiIt is the number of SKUs that correspond, let L be the set of all the chutes of the sorter, | L | be the number of all the chutes.
Step 402, for each SKU contained in the SKU information, if the quantity corresponding to the current SKU is within the preset quantity range, the current SKU is classified into a first SKU set, and if the quantity corresponding to the current SKU is outside the preset quantity range, the current SKU is classified into a second cargo type set.
Illustratively, the number of all SKUs contracted for a given target sort plan is not below a lower bound, min _ N, and not above an upper bound, max _ N. Thus, when sorting is carried out, the following steps can be carried out: for all SKUs with the quantity lower than min _ N of the wave frequency, collecting the SKUs in one crossing; for SKUs with numbers above the upper limit _ max _ N, each arranges a separate crossing or assignment to a flood discharge.
And step 403, inputting the SKU information corresponding to the first SKU set into the objective function and the constraint condition.
