Detailed Description

In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present application. This application is capable of implementation in many different ways than those herein set forth and of similar import by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of this application and is therefore not limited to the specific implementations disclosed below.

The application provides an article classification processing method, a grid bin operation device, electronic equipment and a computer storage medium. The following describes an article classification processing method, a grid bin operation method, an apparatus, an electronic device, and a computer storage medium, respectively, with specific embodiments.

The article classification processing method can be applied to various situations that articles need to be classified in an actual physical space region, and is characterized in that a certain class used for carrying out first-round classification on the articles is taken as a current class, then a certain physical space region is partitioned based on the number of classes for carrying out second-round classification on the current class, so that the space partition of the physical space region is obtained, and each space partition corresponds to a specific class of the second-round classification. When the articles of the current category are classified and arranged in the second round, the articles can be arranged in the corresponding space subareas based on the classes of the second round classification corresponding to the articles in the current category, and the rapid classification and arrangement of the articles of the current category is realized.

After the classified arrangement of the articles of the current category, the classified and arranged articles of the current category are packed based on the classified and arranged result, and the occupation of the actual physical space area is eliminated. After the actual physical space area is cleared and occupied, other categories under the first round of classification can be used as the current category, the second round of classification on the current category is repeated, and the process of partitioning the physical space area is carried out so as to be used for classifying and arranging articles of other categories.

In the article processing method, the physical space region is mainly used for classifying and arranging the articles. By the article processing method, the partition of the physical space region can be realized, and the classified arrangement processing can be carried out on articles of a certain class based on the partitioned partition. Meanwhile, the physical space region can be subjected to time-sharing multiplexing, so that the secondary classification arrangement efficiency of the articles of each category is improved.

The article processing method can be applied to the scenes of sorting and separating commodities purchased in group in communities. Specifically, the commodities of the community group purchase are generally sorted in a central bin, and after sorting, the sorted commodities are transported to a next-level grid bin, and then the sorted commodities are subjected to distribution processing in the grid bin, and further the distributed commodities are transported to each self-picking point for picking up the commodities.

In this scenario, the central warehouse may refer to a primary warehouse storing a large amount of commodities, and the central warehouse is directly connected to a supplier or a supplier supplying commodities for receiving or storing the commodities provided by the supplier or the supplier.

After a large number of users place orders in a community group purchase scene, the commodities placed by the users need to be sorted out in the central bin, then the commodities are transported to the next-level warehouse grid bin of the central bin, and then the commodities are separately broadcast in the grid bin based on the self-picking-up point positions of the commodities, so that the distributed commodities are provided for distribution personnel distributing the commodities at the self-picking-up points.

The grid bin is a next-level warehouse in the logistics system, and is provided with a plurality of sub-broadcast positions which are used for sub-broadcast processing of commodities. Each of the bits actually corresponds to a partition that performs partitioning on a grid bin.

In the community group purchase scene, when the existing method sorts or distributes commodities, the commodities are firstly sorted at a central bin based on the warehouse dimension of a grid bin, namely: and if the commodities need to be distributed through a certain grid bin, the commodities are conveyed to the grid bin for distribution. However, with the dramatic increase of the number of group-purchased commodities, the limited space range of the grid bin may not accommodate a large number of commodities at the same time, and meanwhile, limited distribution personnel in the grid bin cannot distribute a large number of commodities in time, so that the distribution efficiency of the commodities is low.

In order to improve the commodity distribution efficiency in the grid bin, the present application provides an article classification processing method, and in order to better understand the article classification processing method of the present application, an application scenario of the article classification processing method of the present application is described with reference to fig. 1, where fig. 1 is a scenario schematic diagram of the article classification processing method of the present application.

Specifically, referring to fig. 1, first, a first round of classification is performed on the commodities ordered by the user, and each category of the first round of classification is obtained. When the first round of classification is carried out on commodities ordered by a user, the first round of classification is carried out on the commodities mainly according to the transportation routes of the commodities.

For example, when the items ordered by the user are item 1, item 2, item 3 … … and item 100, the process of sorting the 100 items at the central bin actually performs a first round of sorting on the items, and assuming that items 1 to 60 belong to the same transportation route a, the items are regarded as a certain category in the first round of sorting, for example, the first category may be: the first category corresponds to the transport route a. Similarly, assuming that the items 61-100 belong to the same transportation route B, these items are considered as some other category in the first round of classification, which may be, for example, a second category, namely: the second category corresponds to haul route B. Assuming that commodities ordered by users on the transportation route A and the transportation route B need to be separately broadcast through the grid bin 1, when the commodities 1 to 100 are separately broadcast through the grid bin 1, the existing method for separately broadcasting the commodities in the grid bin is to directly perform separate broadcasting on the commodities 1 to 100, and assuming that the grid bin cannot simultaneously place the 100 commodities, the separate broadcasting efficiency is low.

By adopting the article processing method, the commodities under the transportation route A can be distributed firstly, and then the commodities under the transportation route B can be distributed after the commodities under the transportation route A are distributed. The mesh bin can be used for simultaneously placing the commodities on one transportation route, and meanwhile, the commodities on the same transportation route are separately distributed in the process of distributing at every time, so that the distributing efficiency is remarkably improved. Furthermore, as the number of commodities distributed at each time is small, distribution resources of the grid bin (including the space of the grid bin occupied by distribution and distribution personnel) are reasonably utilized, and the distribution efficiency is obviously improved.

When the goods on a certain transportation route are specifically subjected to distribution processing, in order to facilitate distribution, the grid bin space is subjected to area division in advance, when the grid bin space is specifically subjected to area division, the area division can be performed according to the number of categories of the second-round classification performed on the current category, and the corresponding specific category of the second-round classification is specified for each space partition.

For example, before the transportation route a is taken as the current category for commodity distribution, the pick-up point of the commodity under the transportation route a may be taken as the basis for commodity distribution, that is, the pick-up point of the commodity under the transportation route a is taken as the basis for second round classification of the current category. Suppose that the goods under the transportation route a correspond to five self-picking points, the self-picking point 1 corresponds to goods 1-12, the self-picking point 2 corresponds to goods 13-22, the self-picking point 3 corresponds to goods 23-34, the self-picking point 4 corresponds to goods 35-50, and the self-picking point 5 corresponds to goods 51-60. In the application, the self-service point is used for the user to collect the ordered commodities.

In this embodiment, the current category may be subjected to the second round of classification based on the number of self-picking points, so that the grid bin space may be divided into five space partitions, and each space partition is assigned to a specific category of the second round of classification in order to facilitate the separate-broadcasting by the grid bin worker. For example, spatial partition 1 corresponds to self-extracting point 1, spatial partition 2 corresponds to self-extracting point 2, spatial partition 3 corresponds to self-extracting point 3, spatial partition 4 corresponds to self-extracting point 4, and spatial partition 5 corresponds to self-extracting point 5.

After the grid bin space is partitioned, the commodities under the transportation route a can be distributed, specifically, during the distribution of the commodities under the transportation route a, the commodities under the transportation route a are actually placed in different partitions. After the commodities under the transportation route A are arranged in different subareas, the commodities arranged on each subarea can be packed, and then the commodities arranged on each subarea are cleared, so that the occupation of the space of the grid bin is eliminated. And then notifies the delivery personnel who delivered the respective self-service points (including the self-service points 1-5) of the delivery of the packaged goods.

After the commodities under the transportation route a are sorted, the transportation route B can be used as the current category to sort the commodities under the transportation route B in the grid bin, and certainly before the transportation route B is used as the current category to sort the commodities, the pick-up point of the commodities under the transportation route B can be used as the basis for sorting the commodities, that is, the pick-up point of the commodities under the transportation route B is used as the basis for carrying out the second round of classification on the current category. And meanwhile, the grid bin space is partitioned, so that the commodities under the transportation route B are distributed based on the specific category corresponding to the partition.

After the commodities under the transportation route B are arranged in different subareas according to the process, the commodities arranged on each subarea can be packed, and then the commodities arranged on each subarea are cleared, so that the occupation of the space of the grid bin is eliminated. And then notifying the delivery personnel who deliver the commodities at the respective pick-up points (corresponding to the pick-up points under the transportation route B) to deliver the packaged commodities.

Fig. 1 introduced above is a diagram of an application scenario of the article classification processing method according to the present application, and an embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the application scenario of the article classification processing method, and the application scenario of the article classification processing method is only one embodiment of the application scenario of the article classification processing method provided in the present application, and the application scenario is provided to facilitate understanding of the article classification processing method provided in the present application, and is not used to limit the article classification processing method provided in the present application. Other application scenarios of the article classification processing method in the embodiment of the application are not repeated one by one.

First embodiment

A first embodiment of the present application provides an article sorting method, which is described below with reference to fig. 2.

Please refer to fig. 2, which is a flowchart illustrating an article classifying method according to a first embodiment of the present application.

The article classification processing method of the embodiment of the application comprises the following steps.

Step S201: and taking the first category under the first round of classification as the current category.

In the present embodiment, an example of an item classification processing method will be described in which a commodity of a community group purchase is sorted in a center bin and the sorted commodity is distributed in a grid bin.

The commodities of community group purchase are sorted in the central bin, the first round of classification of the commodities is carried out correspondingly, and the sorted commodities are distributed in the grid bin, and the second round of classification of the commodities is carried out correspondingly.

The central warehouse may refer to a primary warehouse for storing a large amount of goods, and the central warehouse is directly connected to a supplier or supplier for supplying goods, so as to receive or store the goods provided by the supplier or supplier. After a large number of users place orders in a community group purchase scene, the commodities placed by the users need to be sorted out in the central bin, then the commodities are transported to the next-level warehouse grid bin of the central bin, and then the commodities are separately broadcast in the grid bin based on the self-picking-up point positions of the commodities, so that the distributed commodities are provided for distribution personnel distributing the commodities at the self-picking-up points.

In order to improve the sorting processing efficiency of the commodities, in the embodiment, when the central bin sorts out commodities ordered by the user, the commodities are sorted according to the first round of sorting. Thus, the first round of sorting is determined before the center bin sorts out the items ordered by the user.

Specifically, as one way to determine the first round of classification, it may be: the categories under the first round of classification are determined. More specifically, determining the respective categories under the first round of classification may refer to: obtaining information of each transportation route of the object to be processed; taking each transportation route as a category, determining various categories under the first round of classification.

The to-be-processed goods are the goods which are ordered on line by the user, and as a plurality of users may participate in group purchase in the community group purchase scene, the number of related group purchase goods is large, and each group purchase goods corresponds to a respective transportation route, so that in order to facilitate transportation and subsequent distribution of a large number of goods, when the ordered goods are sorted in the central bin, each transportation route information of the ordered goods can be obtained firstly based on the receiving address information of the ordered goods.

For example, when the items ordered by the user are item 1, item 2, item 3 … … and item 100, the process of sorting the 100 items at the central bin actually performs a first round of sorting on the items, and assuming that items 1 to 60 belong to the same transportation route a, the items are regarded as a certain category in the first round of sorting, for example, the first category may be: the first category corresponds to the transport route a. Similarly, assuming that the items 61-100 belong to the same transportation route B, these items are considered as some other category in the first round of classification, which may be, for example, a second category, namely: the second category corresponds to haul route B. The transportation route a and the transportation route B are examples of the transportation route information of each order placing commodity.

After obtaining the individual shipping route information for the ordered item, the individual categories of the first round of classification are actually obtained.

After obtaining each category of the first round of classification, the categories under the first round of classification may be ranked to obtain ranking information of each category under the first round of classification; and determining the first category based on the sorting information of the categories under the first round of classification. For example, the first category is the items of transportation route a and the items of transportation route B, respectively, and assuming that the items sorted as transportation route a are sorted in preference to the items of transportation route B, the first category is the items of transportation route a.

Step S202: and acquiring the number of the categories and the specific categories contained in the current categories which are further subjected to the second round of classification.

After the first category is obtained and is taken as the current category, the items in the first category need to be subjected to distribution processing, that is: and performing distribution processing on the commodities of the transportation route A.

Since the space of the grid bin needs to be occupied when the first category of articles are subjected to the separate-sowing processing, and the first category of articles are arranged in different space partitions of the space of the grid bin, the space of the grid bin can be divided into areas in advance in order to facilitate the separate-sowing of the first category of articles.

In particular, when the mesh bin space is regionally partitioned, the mesh bin space may be regionally partitioned based on the number of classes with which the current class is further subjected to the second round of classification.

As an embodiment of obtaining the number of categories and the specific categories included in the second round of classification of the current category, the following may be mentioned: acquiring each extracted position point under the transportation route based on the transportation route corresponding to the current category; and taking each extracted position point as a specific class for further carrying out second-round classification on the current class, so as to determine the number of classes of the second-round classification and the contained specific class.

For example, when the transportation route a is taken as the current category, the respective pickup points of the commodities under the transportation route a may be taken as the basis for performing the second round of classification on the current category, that is, the pickup points of the commodities under the transportation route a are taken as an example of a specific category included in the second round of classification on the current category. Suppose that the goods under the transportation route a correspond to five self-picking points, the self-picking point 1 corresponds to goods 1-12, the self-picking point 2 corresponds to goods 13-22, the self-picking point 3 corresponds to goods 23-34, the self-picking point 4 corresponds to goods 35-50, and the self-picking point 5 corresponds to goods 51-60. Then the number of categories that have to be further subjected to the second round of classification for the current category is five, and the self-lift point 1, the self-lift point 2, the self-lift point 3, the self-lift point 4, and the self-lift point 5 are examples of the specific categories included in the second round of classification. In the present application, the self-service point is a location point for the user to collect or pick up the placed commodity.

Of course, as another embodiment for obtaining the number of categories and the included specific categories of the current category that are subjected to the second round of classification, the number of categories and the included specific categories of the current category that are subjected to the second round of classification may also be based on other scene features of the object to be processed. For example, the second round of classification may be performed according to the attribute characteristics of the product itself, and if the product ordered by the user is specifically a food, the second round of classification may be performed on the current category according to the short message indicating the shelf life of the food.

Of course, the determination of each category under the first round of classification in step S101 may also be based on other scene features of the to-be-processed item, and is not limited to determining each category under the first round of classification based on each transportation route information of the to-be-processed item.

Step S203: and according to the class number of the second round of classification of the current class, performing region division on a specified space range for processing the articles to obtain space partitions corresponding to the class number, and assigning a specific class of the corresponding second round of classification for each space partition.

After the number of classes and the included specific classes of the current class in the second round of classification are obtained, the specified space range for processing the articles is subjected to region division according to the number of classes of the second round of classification of the current class, space partitions corresponding to the number of classes are obtained, and the specific classes of the corresponding second round of classification are assigned to each space partition.

Specifically, as a way of specifying a specific category of the corresponding second round classification for each spatial partition, it may refer to: firstly, determining second round category identification of each category of a second round of classification, and determining space partition identification of each space partition; then, the second round of category identification is corresponding to the space partition identification, and a first corresponding relation between the second round of category identification and the space partition identification is established; meanwhile, a corresponding space partition identifier is assigned to each space partition; and finally, according to the first corresponding relation, determining the category of the second round of classification corresponding to each space partition according to the corresponding space partition identification.

When each extracted position point is taken as a specific category for further performing the second round of classification on the current category, it is assumed that the categories corresponding to the self-extracting point 1, the self-extracting point 2, the self-extracting point 3, the self-extracting point 4 and the self-extracting point 5 are identified as Z1, Z2, Z3, Z4 and Z5, and Z1, Z2, Z3, Z4 and Z5 are examples of the second round of category identification.

Assuming that a grid bin is divided into five partitions and each partition corresponds to a code, the code corresponding to each partition is an example of a spatial partition identification. In order to conveniently separate and broadcast the commodities or the articles, the second round of category identification and the space partition identification are corresponding in advance, each space partition corresponds to one space partition identification, each space partition also corresponds to one second round of category identification actually, for example, the first space partition corresponds to Z1, and then when the commodities under the transportation route a are separated and broadcast, the commodities corresponding to the pick-up point 1 can be directly placed in the first space partition based on the category of the second round of classification corresponding to each space partition in the grid bin.

Step S204: and acquiring the articles of the current category, and arranging the articles in the space subarea according to the category of the second round classification to which each article belongs.

After the step S203 designates a specific category of the second round of classification for each space partition, each article may be placed in the space partition according to the category of the second round of classification to which each article belongs.

Specifically, the step of placing each article in the spatial partition according to the category of the second round classification to which each article belongs may be: firstly, determining the class of the second round classification to which each article belongs; and then, according to the classification of the second round of classification of the articles, arranging each article in a corresponding space subarea according to the first corresponding relation.

In the article processing method of this embodiment, when a commodity under the transportation route a is distributed, a distribution person who actually needs a grid bin places the commodity under the distribution transportation route a in a corresponding space partition, and in order to facilitate the distribution person to place the commodity under the distribution transportation route a in the corresponding space partition, in a target application of a logistics system, the commodity under the distribution transportation route a is simulated to be placed in the corresponding space partition, and a display page on which the commodity under the simulated distribution transportation route a is placed in the corresponding space partition is provided to the distribution person, so that the distribution person can actually operate a process of placing the commodity under the distribution transportation route a in the corresponding space partition.

During the distribution process, the distributor can scan each item using a Radio Frequency (RF) device to determine the category of the second round category to which the item belongs. Of course, the category of the second round classification to which the current category of the item belongs may be obtained based on the order receiving address corresponding thereto, and is stored in advance in a database of the backend system (the database may be set in the subsequent system), the terminal application and the backend system may perform data transmission or data interaction, the radio frequency device may be set in the terminal application (for example, may be a scanning device in the terminal application), and thus when the radio frequency device scans the item, the category of the second round classification to which each item belongs may be obtained from the backend system based on the order identifier or other identifier of the item.

In this embodiment, in order to facilitate the arrangement of the articles of the current category in the grid bin in the corresponding space partition, the article identifier of the article of the current category may be previously corresponding to the vehicle identifier of the selected transportation vehicle, and a second corresponding relationship between the article identifier and the vehicle identifier is established, so as to sub-mount the articles according to the article identifiers. The transport vehicle is used for transporting the articles from the storage space of the logistics system at the upper stage to the specified space for placing the articles. The central bin is an example corresponding to the storage space of the logistics system at the upper stage, and the grid bin is an example corresponding to the specified space.

In order to facilitate the arrangement of the current type of goods in the corresponding space subareas of the grid bin, when the group-purchased goods are transported from the center bin to the grid bin, the goods can be separately arranged in the containing devices in the corresponding transport vehicles based on the second corresponding relation when the goods are separately arranged.

Specifically, the article identifier of the article of the current category is pre-associated with the vehicle identifier of the selected transportation vehicle, and the second association between the article identifier and the vehicle identifier is established, which may be: firstly, capacity information of selectable transport vehicles for transporting the current category of articles is obtained, and then matched transport vehicles are selected as selected transport vehicles based on the capacity information of the transport vehicles and the quantity information of the current category of articles; and finally, corresponding the article identification of the article of the current category with the vehicle identification of the selected transport vehicle, and establishing a second corresponding relation between the article identification and the vehicle identification so as to subpackage the articles according to the article identification.

More specifically, the transport vehicle comprises a plurality of containing devices for placing the articles, and each containing device corresponds to one or more categories of the second round classification of the current category; for example, the container 1 corresponds to the pick-up point 1, and the container 1 may correspond to the pick-up points 1 and 2. The case of holding the container for dispensing the commodity may be other cases. For example, when the self-service point 11 corresponds to 15 commodities, the self-service point 12 also corresponds to 15 commodities, when the commodities of the self-service point are separately loaded by using the containing containers, it is assumed that each containing container can contain 10 commodities, the 10 commodities of the self-service point 11 can be placed in the containing container 9, the 10 commodities of the self-service point 12 are placed in the containing container 11, the 5 commodities of the self-service point 11 and the 5 commodities of the self-service point 12 are contained in the containing container 10, and the numbers of the containing containers are arranged in a transport vehicle according to a sequence.

In the process of separately loading the articles in the containing devices, the separate loading process can be realized based on the category of the second round classification to which the specific article of the current category belongs, and the third corresponding relationship between the category of the second round classification of the article of the current category and the containing identification. Namely: and according to the category of the second round classification to which the specific article of the current category belongs, subpackaging the specific article into containing devices with containing marks in a third corresponding relation.

In particular, the third correspondence between the category and the containing identification of the second round classification of the item of the current category may be implemented based on the following manner: firstly, determining a containing mark for representing each containing device in a plurality of containing devices; and then, establishing a third corresponding relation between the categories of the second round classification of the articles of the current category and the containing identifications.

In this embodiment, after the processing of the article of the current category is completed, the information of the distributor corresponding to the processing result information of the article of the current category is determined. And providing the processed article to the corresponding delivery person based on the delivery person information for determining the processing result information of the article corresponding to the current category. For example, a partition of packaged goods may be provided to a delivery person who delivers the pick-up point.

In this embodiment, before the area division is performed on the specified space range for processing the article, the operation state information of the specified space range for processing the article needs to be obtained; the operating state information includes at least whether a predetermined spatial range for processing the article is in a spatial state.

After the working state information of the specified space range for processing the articles is obtained, whether the specified space range is in an idle state or not is judged, and if yes, the specified space range is divided into areas according to the number of classes of the second round of classification of the current class.

In this embodiment, the operating status information may further include at least one of the following information:

frequency information specifying a spatial range in the grid bin that can be multiplexed;

identification information specifying a spatial range in the grid bin;

current category information occupying a specified spatial range in a grid bin.

In this embodiment, in order to ensure that the predetermined space range is not occupied by the other types of articles when the predetermined space range for processing the articles is used to perform the classification processing on the articles of the current type, the predetermined space range may be set in an occupied state in advance. Of course, it will be understood that, with respect to setting the prescribed space range to the occupied state, and releasing (or clearing) the occupation of the prescribed space range, the relevant operation may be performed by the manager who manages the prescribed space range on the page for managing the use of the prescribed space range.

In this embodiment, one category in the first round of classification is described as the current category, but a plurality of categories in the first round of classification may be used as the current category as long as the predetermined spatial range for processing the articles can accommodate the articles of the current plurality of categories at the same time.

Step S205: and after the articles of the current category are placed and processed, setting a second category different from the first category under the first round of classification as the current category, and returning to the step of acquiring the number of categories and the specific categories contained in the second round of classification of the current category.

After the commodities under the transportation route A are separately sown, the commodities after being separately sown under the transportation route A are packed, and the commodities are sorted, so that the commodities under the transportation route B can be separately sown. Of course, before the transportation route B is taken as the current category for commodity distribution, the pick-up point of the commodity under the transportation route B may be taken as the basis for commodity distribution, that is, the pick-up point of the commodity under the transportation route B is taken as the basis for the second round of classification of the current category. And meanwhile, the grid bin space is partitioned, so that the commodities under the transportation route B are distributed based on the specific category corresponding to the partition.

The application provides an article classification processing method, which comprises the steps of firstly, taking a first category under a first round of classification as a current category; acquiring the number of categories and the specific categories contained in the current category which is subjected to the second round of classification; then, according to the category number of the second round of classification of the current category, performing region division on a specified space range for processing articles to obtain space partitions corresponding to the category number, and assigning a specific category of the corresponding second round of classification for each space partition; then, obtaining the articles of the current category, and arranging each article in the space subarea according to the category of the second round classification to which each article belongs; finally, after the articles of the current category are placed and processed, setting a second category different from the first category under the first round of classification as the current category, and returning to the step of acquiring the number of categories and the specific categories contained in the second round of classification of the current category. According to the article classification processing method, the specified space range of the processed articles is subjected to region division based on the class number of the second round of classification of the current class, the space partition corresponding to the class number is obtained, and meanwhile, the specific class of the second round of classification of the corresponding current class is appointed for each space partition, so that when the articles of the current class need to be classified and placed in the specified space range of the processed articles, the placing efficiency is higher. Meanwhile, after the placement and the processing of the articles of the current category are finished, a second category different from the first category under the first round of classification is set as the current category, and the specified space range is repeatedly subjected to region division so as to be used for carrying out two rounds of classification placement on the articles of the second category, so that the time-sharing multiplexing of the specified space range of the processed articles is realized, the efficiency of carrying out two rounds of classification placement on the articles is further improved, and the grid compartment separate-broadcasting efficiency in the existing community group-buying scene is improved.
