With the continuous development of internet technology, users can purchase goods on a shopping platform in an online manner, and the shopping platform generally provides the distribution service of the goods for the users.
In the prior art, the delivery personnel usually wait for the user to pick up the parts after transporting the delivered objects to the delivery location or store the delivered objects in an intelligent cabinet near the delivery location, and the user selects the time to pick up the parts by himself. The existing distribution method has high distribution cost and low distribution efficiency, so that the user experience is poor.
In view of the above, embodiments of the present invention provide a delivery control method, a delivery control device, a server, an intelligent cabinet, and a robot, so as to reduce delivery cost, improve delivery efficiency, and improve user experience.
Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of an application system according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the application system includes a distributor terminal 11, a robot 12, a server 13, and an intelligent cabinet 14.
The terminal 11 is a terminal held by a distributor. The distribution personnel terminal 11 may specifically be a mobile phone, a computer, or a tablet computer.
The robot 12 is a robot having a moving function, and the moving mode may be a mechanical moving mode, such as wheel moving or crawler moving, or a bionic moving mode, such as bipedal moving, extremity moving, ventral foot moving, or jumping moving. Further, the robot 12 has an item staging compartment on top. The article temporary storage grid is provided with a cabinet door capable of being opened and closed in a controllable manner. The article buffer compartment may temporarily store the delivered articles during transportation of the delivered articles by the robot 12 to ensure that the delivered articles are not dropped or lost.

Furthermore, the bottom surface of the lowest cabinet lattice in the multi-layer cabinet lattices is also provided with another cabinet door which can be controlled to be opened and closed. When the cabinet door of cabinet check bottom surface is opened, the delivery article of storage in the cabinet check can fall into the article check of keeping in at robot top. It should be understood that the lowest cabinet should have a certain space from the bottom surface for the robot to move.
The server 13 is a terminal device capable of providing computing or related application services to other terminals in the network. In this embodiment, the server 13 may specifically be a server of a distribution platform. The server 13 is used to manage the distribution services associated with the intelligent cabinets and robots. Further, the server 13 may control the intelligent cabinet 14 to open and close the cabinet doors of each cabinet compartment.
The distributor terminal 11, the robot 12, the server 13, and the intelligent cabinet 14 are connected through a network to transmit data.
Specifically, in the actual application process, after the user purchases an item online, the server of the shopping platform generates a corresponding target order and sends the target order to the terminal 11 of the delivery person. The delivery personnel can make the delivery according to the delivery address in the target order. When the delivery person arrives near the delivery address, a storage request can be sent to the intelligent cabinet 14 near the delivery address, and the server 13 controls the intelligent cabinet 14 to open the corresponding cabinet so that the delivery person can store the delivered items in the cabinet. At this time, if the target shelf for storing the delivered items is the lowest shelf of the intelligent cabinet 14, the server 13 inquires the delivery staff of the delivery demand for the target order through the delivery staff terminal 11. If the delivery person selects robot delivery, the server 13 sends a pickup message to the robot 12. The robot 12 will move to the lower part of the target cabinet according to the pickup message, open the cabinet door of the top article temporary storage compartment and send a door opening request to the server 13. The server 13 controls the intelligent cabinet 14 to open the cabinet door at the bottom of the target cabinet grid, so that the delivered objects in the target cabinet grid fall into the object temporary storage grid. When the intelligent cabinet 14 detects that no distribution article exists in the target cabinet grid, the cabinet door at the bottom of the target cabinet grid is closed and a cabinet door closing message is fed back to the server 13. The server 13 notifies the robot 12 to detect whether the article is delivered from the article buffer compartment, and if so, closes the article buffer compartment and delivers the delivered article.
It should be understood that when the server 13 inquires about the delivery requirement of the target order, if the delivery person selects the user to pick up, the server 13 will send the pickup information to the delivery person terminal 11, and the delivery person can forward the pickup information to the user, so that the user can pick up the pickup by himself. Wherein, the pickup information can be used for opening the target cabinet lattice.
It should be understood that in this embodiment, the server 13 may interact with the server of the shopping platform during operation to obtain the required target order related information. When the server 13 receives the storage request, a transfer task bound to the target order may be generated. Accordingly, when the forwarding task is completed, the target order in the server of the shopping platform is also converted to a completed state.
In another case, the server 13 may also choose not to interact with the server of the shopping platform. At this time, the server 13 generates only a temporary transfer job, not a transfer job bound to the target order, upon receiving the storage request.
