The embodiment of the application also provides a method for storing goods, which can be realized by a server. Wherein the server may be a server of the container 1, as shown in fig. 9, the processing flow of the method may include the following steps:

in step 901, a storage request for storing goods in the container 1 is received, where the storage request carries identification information of the goods.

The storage request can also carry identification information of the container 1, so that the server can determine the container 1 to be controlled.

Before goods are delivered, for example, when a user purchases goods, the user can select a delivery mode of the goods on the terminal, such as a self-service mode or a delivery door-to-door mode. After the user purchases the goods, the terminal sends the identification information of the goods and the distribution mode corresponding to the goods to the server, and the server correspondingly stores the identification information of the goods and the distribution mode.

When the distribution personnel distributes goods, the identification of the container 1 to be stored and the goods to be stored can be selected on the terminal, and then the terminal generates a storage request and sends the storage request to the server.

Or, in the case that the fixed cabinet 11 includes an operation component (such as a touch screen), the distribution personnel may also operate on the operation component to input the goods to be stored, and then the controller in the fixed cabinet 11 generates a storage request based on the identification information of the goods and sends the storage request to the server.

After the server receives the storage request, the identification information of the goods carried by the storage request is obtained, and then the delivery mode corresponding to the goods is inquired according to the identification information of the goods.

In step 902a, when it is determined that the delivery manner of the goods is self-service based on the identification information of the goods, the first stock portion 111 of the fixed cabinet 11 in the container 1 is controlled to receive the goods.

Taking the first stock keeping unit 111 having the first cabinet door 1111 as an example, when the server determines that the delivery mode of the goods is self-service based on the identification information of the goods, a door opening instruction is issued to the fixed cabinet 11. After the fixed cabinet 11 receives the door opening command, it controls a certain first door 1111 to be opened, and the distribution person may place the goods in the first stock keeping section 111 and then close the first door 1111.

In step 902b, when it is determined that the delivery manner of the goods is delivery to the door based on the identification information of the goods, the second stock part 121 of the moving cabinet 12 in the container 1 is controlled to receive the goods.

Taking the second stock keeping part 121 having the second cabinet door 1211 as an example, when the server determines that the delivery manner of the goods is the delivery upper door based on the identification information of the goods, the server issues a door opening instruction to the moving cabinet 12. After the movable cabinet 12 receives the door opening command and controls a second door 1211 to be opened, the distribution personnel can place the goods in the second stock portion 121 and then close the second door 1211.

In addition, in the case where there are a plurality of moving cabinets 12, in order to improve the distribution efficiency, the server may determine the distribution position of the goods based on the identification information of the goods, and control the second stock keeping part 121 of the moving cabinet 12 corresponding to the distribution position to receive the goods. In this way, the distribution positions of the goods stored in the same movable cabinet 12 are the same or close to each other, so that the travel path of the transfer robot 2 is short when the transfer robot carries the movable cabinet 12 to distribute the goods, thereby improving the distribution efficiency.

The embodiment of the present application is not limited to the implementation manner of controlling the second inventory part 121 of the moving cabinet 12 corresponding to the dispensing position to receive the goods.

For example, each movable cabinet 12 may correspond to a distribution area, and the server determines the movable cabinet 12 corresponding to the goods according to which distribution area the goods belong to, and controls the second cabinet door 1211 in the movable cabinet 12 to open.

The technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the application has at least the following beneficial effects:

(1) the goods distribution system provided by the embodiment of the application can meet self-service requirements and distribution door-to-door requirements of users. For example, when the user is not at the delivery address, he or she may select a self-picking object, and the delivery person places the goods in the fixed cabinet 11, and when the user is convenient, he or she takes the goods in the fixed cabinet 11; when the user is busy and inconvenient to carry, the user can select goods to be delivered to the door, and then the delivery personnel place the goods in the movable cabinet 12, and the movable cabinet 12 is transported by the transporting robot 2 to the door of a room for delivery.

(2) By setting the number of the movable cabinets 12 to be greater than the number of the transfer robots 2, at least one movable cabinet 12 always exists in the storage portion 112, and the problem that no movable cabinet 12 can receive new goods when the transfer robot 2 transfers the movable cabinets 12 to deliver to the door is solved.

(3) When goods are stored in the movable cabinet 12, the distribution positions of the goods are determined, and the goods are stored in the movable cabinet 12 corresponding to the distribution positions, so that the distribution positions of the goods stored in the same movable cabinet 12 are the same or close to each other, and when the transfer robot 2 transfers the movable cabinet 12 to distribute the goods, the traveling path is short, and the distribution efficiency is improved.
