With continued reference to FIG. 2, a flow 200 of one embodiment of a method for determining picking information in accordance with the present disclosure is shown, including the steps of:

step 201, obtaining position information of each container to be delivered from at least one container to be delivered, wherein the container to be delivered contains articles to be delivered from the warehouse.

In the present embodiment, an execution subject (for example, a server shown in fig. 1) of the method for determining picking information may acquire location information of each of at least one container to be ex-warehouse, for example, a coordinate point location, a layer number located in a multi-layer structure, and the like. Wherein, the container to be delivered contains the articles to be delivered.

At step 202, a group of each container to be ex-warehouse is determined based on the destination of each container to be ex-warehouse.

In this embodiment, the group to which each container to be delivered belongs may be determined based on the destination of each container to be delivered, that is, all containers to be delivered are grouped according to the destination of the container to be delivered to pick up the delivery.

And step 203, displaying each container to be delivered in the warehouse in the stereoscopic schematic diagram based on the position information, wherein containers to be delivered belonging to different groups are marked with different displays, and containers to be delivered belonging to the same group are marked with the same display.

In this embodiment, each container to be ex-warehouse is displayed in the warehouse three-dimensional schematic diagram based on the position information of each container to be ex-warehouse, and during the display, containers to be ex-warehouse belonging to different groups are displayed by using different display marks, and containers to be ex-warehouse belonging to the same group are displayed by using the same display mark, so as to distinguish the groups.

And step 204, determining the container sorting efficiency by adopting the distance between the containers to be delivered from the warehouse with the display marks for each display mark.

In the embodiment, for each display mark, the distance between all containers to be delivered with the display mark is adopted to determine the container picking efficiency so as to evaluate the current picking strategy. For example, if the distance between all the containers to be picked with the same display mark is inversely proportional to the container picking efficiency, and the smaller the distance, the closer the distance between the containers to be picked to the same delivery destination is, the picking trolley can pick a plurality of containers at a time, and the picking efficiency of the current picking strategy is higher.

The method for determining picking information provided by the embodiment obtains the position information of each container to be delivered from at least one container to be delivered from a warehouse, wherein the container to be delivered contains the articles to be delivered from the warehouse; determining a grouping of each container to be ex-warehouse based on the destination of each container to be ex-warehouse; displaying each container to be delivered from the warehouse in a three-dimensional schematic diagram of the warehouse based on the position information, wherein containers to be delivered from the warehouse belonging to different groups adopt different display marks, and containers to be delivered from the warehouse belonging to the same group adopt the same display mark; aiming at each display mark, the distance between the containers to be delivered with the display mark is adopted to determine the container picking efficiency, the method can monitor the specific position of the bin in the multilayer three-dimensional structure warehouse, and is favorable for visually analyzing information such as the efficiency of the current picking scheme.

With continued reference to FIG. 3, a flow 300 of another embodiment of a method for determining picking information in accordance with the present disclosure is shown, including the steps of:

step 301, acquiring a storage location number of the container to be delivered, wherein the storage location number comprises a lane number, a floor number, a lane direction and a lane row number of the container to be delivered, and the container to be delivered contains the articles to be delivered.

In this embodiment, an executing body (for example, a server shown in fig. 1) of the method for determining the picking information may obtain a slot number of each of at least one container to be picked, where the slot number includes a lane number of a lane in which the container to be picked is located, a floor number of a floor of a third floor of a three-dimensional space, a lane direction for indicating whether the container to be picked is located on the left side or the right side of the lane, and a lane column number of a few columns of the lane. Wherein, the container to be delivered contains the articles to be delivered.

Step 302, determining a grouping of each container to be ex-warehouse based on the destination of each container to be ex-warehouse.

And 303, displaying each container to be delivered in the warehouse three-dimensional schematic diagram based on the position information, wherein containers to be delivered belonging to different groups adopt different display marks, and containers to be delivered belonging to the same group adopt the same display mark.

And step 304, determining the container sorting efficiency by adopting the distance between the containers to be delivered from the warehouse with the display mark for each display mark.

In this embodiment, the descriptions of step 302, step 303, and step 304 are the same as the descriptions of step 202, step 203, and step 204, and are not repeated here.

Compared with the method described in the embodiment of fig. 2, the method for determining picking information in this embodiment specifically uses the bin number to indicate the location information of the container to be delivered, so that the accuracy of determining the location of the container to be delivered can be improved.

Optionally, the method for determining picking information further comprises: and acquiring the coordinates of the picking points of the containers to be delivered from the warehouse.

In this embodiment, the coordinates of the picking point of the container to be delivered may also be obtained to be used for determining the position of the container to be delivered together with the storage position number, so that the accuracy of determining the position of the container to be delivered may be improved while avoiding the influence of the system performance caused by the loading of a large number of storage position numbers.

In some optional implementations of the embodiments described above in conjunction with fig. 2 and 3, employing different display marks for containers to be ex-warehouse belonging to different groups, and employing the same display mark for containers to be ex-warehouse belonging to the same group, includes: and displaying the containers to be delivered belonging to different groups by adopting different colors, and displaying the containers to be delivered belonging to the same group by adopting the same color.

In this embodiment, the containers to be delivered from different groups may be displayed in different colors, and the containers to be delivered from the same group may be displayed in the same color, so that the groups are distinguished by color.

In some optional implementations of the embodiments described above in connection with fig. 2 and 3, determining a receptacle picking efficiency using, for each display marker, a distance between the receptacles to be warehoused having the display marker includes: in response to the existence of one display mark, adopting the distance between the containers to be delivered out of the warehouse with the display mark to determine the container sorting efficiency; or, in response to the existence of the at least two display marks, for each of the at least two display marks, determining a picking efficiency corresponding to the display mark using a distance between the containers to be delivered with the display mark; determining a weighted sum of the picking efficiencies corresponding to each of the at least two display indicia as the receptacle picking efficiency.

In this embodiment, if there is only one display mark, the distance between the containers to be delivered with the display mark is used to determine the container sorting efficiency, so that the container sorting efficiency is inversely proportional to the distance calculation result (such as the sum of all the distances and the product of all the distances) between the containers to be delivered. Or if a plurality of display marks exist, determining the picking efficiency corresponding to each display mark by adopting the distance between the containers to be delivered with the display mark for each display mark; thereafter, a weighted sum (e.g., average, etc.) of the picking efficiencies corresponding to each display indicia is determined as the container picking efficiency.

In some optional implementations of the embodiments described above in connection with fig. 2 and 3, determining the picking efficiency corresponding to the display marker using the distance between the containers to be warehoused having the display marker includes: calculating the sum of the distances between every two containers to be delivered with the display marks to obtain a target distance; based on the target distance, a picking efficiency corresponding to the display marker is determined.

In this embodiment, the execution subject may obtain the target distance by calculating a sum of distances between each pair of the containers to be delivered with the display mark.

Further, the execution main body may match the target distance with a preset distance and a picking efficiency comparison table to determine the picking efficiency corresponding to the display mark, or input the target distance into a preset picking efficiency prediction model to obtain the picking efficiency corresponding to the display mark, which is not limited in the present application.

The preset distance and picking efficiency comparison table can be determined according to historical data statistics. The preset picking efficiency prediction model can be obtained based on training of the distance samples marked with the picking efficiency.

This mode can effectively promote and determine accuracy and the efficiency of selecting efficiency.

In some optional implementations of the embodiments described above in connection with fig. 2 and 3, the numbers of the different colors are different, and the number of each color is determined based on the number of the group to which the color corresponds, including: and in response to the fact that the number of the group is smaller than a preset value, the color number is the same as the number of the group, and in response to the fact that the number of the group is larger than or equal to the preset value, the surplus result of the number of the group to the preset value is used as the color number.

In this embodiment, the numbers of different colors are different, the number of each color is determined based on the number of the group corresponding to the color, the execution main body may compare the group number corresponding to the color with a preset value, if the number is smaller than the preset value, the color number is the same as the number of the group, and if the number is larger than the preset value, a remainder result of the group number to the preset value is used as the color number of the color.

The preset value can be set according to experience and actual requirements, for example, 10, 8, etc., which is not limited in this application.

Specifically, in the warehouse, the number of the workstation groups (groups) is usually not more than 10, and different colors numbered from 0 to 9 may be set, that is, the preset value is 10, and the formula for selecting the colors is as follows:

for example, the station group number (the number of the group) is "station group 3", in which case the color number 3 is selected, and the station group number is "12", in which case the color number 2 is selected.

The method can avoid the influence on the display effect caused by excessive grouping colors.

In some optional implementations of the embodiments described above in conjunction with fig. 2 and 3, each container to be unloaded is displayed in a schematic perspective view of a warehouse, including: and displaying each container to be delivered and the corresponding shelf in the warehouse three-dimensional schematic diagram, wherein the transparency of the shelf is a preset value.

In this embodiment, the execution main body displays each container to be delivered in the warehouse perspective diagram and simultaneously displays the shelf corresponding to each container to be delivered so as to prevent the containers from appearing suspended, the shelf is generally displayed below the container to be delivered, and meanwhile, in order to reduce the possibility that the shelf blocks other containers, the transparency of the shelf is generally set to be a preset value.

Here, the preset value may be set according to actual requirements, for example, 65%, 80%, and the like, which is not limited in this application.

The display effect of the container to be taken out of the warehouse can be further improved by the method.

In some application scenarios, as shown in fig. 4, which shows a three-dimensional block diagram of a warehouse for placing containers, the method for determining the picking information includes:

the data of the container to be delivered is obtained by the request background, and the map number, the storage position number, the container number, the workstation group and the picking point number can be obtained (as shown in table 1).

Table 1:

one position on the map can be uniquely determined according to the storage position number, but the storage position data cannot be stored because the storage position number in the warehouse is huge and the page performance is influenced by loading a large amount of storage position data. However, the page is loaded with the coordinates of all the sorting points, and the storage position is determined on the map according to the coordinates, the direction and the storage position number of the sorting points, and the method comprises the following steps:

as shown in fig. 5, a two-dimensional code on the warehouse floor records a coordinate corresponding to the picking point number in table 1, and when the page is loaded, all coordinate points including the coordinate point of the picking point are requested (as shown in table 2). According to the direction of the picking point, the roadway direction of the roadway where the picking point is located can be obtained. When the direction of the picking point is the positive direction of the X axis or the negative direction of the X axis, the direction of the roadway is the positive direction of the X axis; when the picking point direction is the positive Y-axis direction or the negative Y-axis direction, the roadway direction is the positive Y-axis direction (the roadway direction only has the positive direction in the coordinate system). At this time, the coordinates of the picking point and the direction of the roadway can be obtained according to the data of the picking point number in the request of the container to be delivered.

Table 2:

the bin number rule is shown as remarks in the bin number field in table 1, and can be understood in conjunction with fig. 5. Through storing the bit number, can obtain the layer number of storing the bit, store the bit and be in the left side or the right side of tunnel, store the bit and be in dark carry or shallow carry. At the moment, the three-dimensional space position of the storage position in the map can be obtained according to the coordinates of the picking point, the roadway direction and the storage position number.

For example, a map is loaded, and the data of a certain coordinate point is as follows:

name(s)	Value of
		Position of X axis	35
Y-axis position	13
		Coordinate numbering	00350013
Type of coordinates	Pick
		Direction	-1.57

When acquiring a container to be delivered, certain container data is as follows:

name (R)	Value of
		Number of storage position	L050600004.03
Picking point number	00350013

According to a sorting point number 00350013 of a container to be delivered, the position and the direction of a map coordinate point can be determined, X =35, Y =13, the direction is-1.57 (Y-axis negative direction), and the roadway direction is the positive Y-axis direction (the roadway direction can only be positive). According to the 4-5 bit '06' of the storage bit number, the tunnel is known to be on the 6 th layer, and the two bit '03' after the storage bit number is inverted can know the deep carry of the storage bit on the left side of the tunnel direction. The position of the storage position L050600004.03 carries 6 layers deeply towards the left side of the positive direction of the Y axis at the coordinates (35, 13).

After the positions of the containers to be delivered are obtained, all the containers to be delivered are grouped according to the work station groups, and the destinations of the containers to be delivered in each group are the same (namely, the positions to which the containers need to be moved are the same). In the process of warehouse production order, when the containers with the same destination are close to each other, the distance between the picking trolleys and the containers is the closest, and the production efficiency is higher.

With further reference to fig. 6, as an implementation of the methods shown in the above figures, the present disclosure provides an embodiment of an apparatus for determining picking information, which corresponds to the method embodiments shown in fig. 2 and 3, and which may be applied in various electronic devices in particular.

In some embodiments, the first determining module is further configured to calculate a sum of distances between every two containers to be delivered with the display mark, so as to obtain a target distance; based on the target distance, a picking efficiency corresponding to the display marker is determined.

In some embodiments, the different colors are numbered differently, and the number of each color is determined based on the number of the group to which the color corresponds, including: and in response to the fact that the number of the group is smaller than a preset value and the color number is the same as the number of the group, taking the surplus result of the number of the group to the preset value as the color number.
