Detailed Description
Exemplary embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which various details of embodiments of the invention are included to assist understanding, and which are to be considered as merely exemplary. Accordingly, those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that various changes and modifications of the embodiments described herein can be made without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention. Also, descriptions of well-known functions and constructions are omitted in the following description for clarity and conciseness.
Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a main flow of an article sorting method according to an embodiment of the present invention, and referring to fig. 1, an embodiment of the present invention further provides an article sorting method, which may specifically include the following steps:
step 101: acquiring a sorting rule according to the received sorting instruction; the sorting rules at least comprise one sorting dimension, and the sorting rules are used for expressing the relationship between the category information of each sorting dimension and the corresponding coding information;
in step 101, the category information is used to distinguish different sorting dimensions, and the rule type, the rule name and/or the rule keyword may be used as category information of different dimensions to distinguish different sorting dimensions. For example: referring to fig. 4, the rule types include at least: the "match by address", "match by carrier", "match by road section", "match by building", "match by cell", and "match by payment", the "match by carrier", "match by cell", and "match by payment" may be used as different sorting dimensions to sort the sorted items in sequence. The coded information may be understood as a sorting category code, such as: the encoded information may be destination code, site code, road area code, payment method code, logistics company code, or the like, where fig. 7 shows a case where the encoded information is the destination code.
It will be appreciated that the sorting rules define which sorting dimensions are used to sort the items to be sorted. For example: if the sorting is carried out by matching according to the carriers, the sorting rule is required to be configured as matching according to the carriers, and the rule detail is configured: carrier 1-sort category 1, carrier 2-sort category 2, etc. It should be noted that, different items to be sorted have different sorting information, and sorting dimensions in the sorting rule can be expanded by self-definition according to the sorting information.
It should be noted that the sorting rules may be directly imported through the first interface or configured according to the first operation of the user. When the sorting rule is configured, responding to a first operation of a user, configuring the sorting rule according to the first operation, and storing the sorting rule.
Step 102: determining a throwing position corresponding to each sorting dimension according to the sorting rule and a preset sorting scheme, wherein the sorting scheme is used for expressing the relation between the coded information and the corresponding throwing position;
in step 102, the sorting plan is used to configure a chute or drop-in opening corresponding to the sorting destination to confirm that the item to be sorted eventually falls into the target physical location. For example: the sorting plan may be configured to: sort category 1-chute 1, sort category 2-chute 2. And can set up many sets of letter sorting schemes, can control the switching between the different letter sorting schemes according to user's activation instruction or predetermined time interval, can regularly automatic switch letter sorting scheme, also can the manual work switch letter sorting scheme, can only activate one set of letter sorting scheme at the same time.
For example: can treat that sort article put in through letter sorting module A and letter sorting module B, wherein letter sorting module A is provided with A1 input mouth and A2 input mouth, and letter sorting module B is provided with B1 input mouth and B2 input mouth, need sort article according to treating the letter sorting article according to "match according to the district" and "match according to the payment mode" two-stage letter sorting dimension respectively. Sorting details corresponding to the 'matching by cell' are 'D1 cell' and 'D2 cell', and 'D1 cell' and 'D2 cell' are replaced by 'D1' and 'D2' codes respectively. The sorting specifications corresponding to the 'matching according to payment methods' are 'E1 payment method' and 'E2 payment method', and 'E1 payment method' and 'E2 payment method' are replaced by codes of 'E1' and 'E2', respectively. The sorting rule may be defined as: the primary sorting dimensions are "match by cell-D1" and "match by cell-D2", and the secondary sorting dimensions are "match by pay-E1" and "match by pay-E2". Sorting protocols may be located as "D1-A1 drop", "D2-A2 drop", "E1-B1 drop", and "E2-B2 drop". Finally, the items to be sorted can be sorted in two sorting dimensions by means of sorting rules and sorting schemes.

Then, according to the sorting information of the articles to be sorted, the articles to be sorted are put in the putting positions corresponding to each dimension. It is understood that different sorting rules may be invoked to match the coded information according to the sorting information of the items to be sorted, and then the drop position (or referred to as physical destination) may be obtained according to the currently activated sorting plan.
Furthermore, the priorities corresponding to different sorting dimensions are different, and articles to be sorted can be sequentially thrown at the throwing positions corresponding to the dimensions according to the preset priority of each sorting dimension, so that the multistage sorting dimension relay sorting is supported. For example: the size separation (rough separation) is carried out according to the volume of the articles to be sorted, then the destination sorting is carried out according to the station, and the like. When different sorting schemes are switched, the switching between the different sorting schemes can be controlled according to an activation instruction of a user or a preset time interval, wherein fig. 8 shows an interface for automatically switching between the different sorting schemes. It can be understood that the objects to be sorted can be roughly and finely divided for a plurality of times according to the priority of the sorting dimension of the sorting rule, so that the purpose of sorting according to different sorting dimensions is achieved. And the corresponding sorting scheme of manual and autonomous switching equipment can be supported by a switching mode, and the automatic switching can be carried out by configuring switching time in advance.
