In some alternative embodiments, in step S330, the robot 1 located in the area where the charging device H is located may be further operated in an idle state and moved to the sealing exit area F to receive suspicious baggage, and the sealed suspicious baggage may be transported to the transferring area C.
In these alternative embodiments, waiting area B 2 And the transfer area C is positioned at two sides of the charging equipment H in the first direction X, when the detection equipment I does not have the baggage to be received, the controller can schedule the robot 1 positioned in the area where the charging equipment H is positioned to run in a no-load mode and move to the sealing outlet to receive suspicious baggage, so that reasonable allocation of the robot 1 is realized to the maximum extent, and the baggage conveying efficiency is improved.
In some alternative embodiments, referring to fig. 8, the sorting method further includes step S400, specifically:
s400, step: when the robot 1 is in an empty state, the robot 1 in the unloading area E sequentially passes through the sealing outlet area F, the baggage delivering area A and the reflow area B 1 Or waiting area B 2 And enter charging device H for charging, or move to area a of row Li Songchu awaiting baggage; alternatively, when the robot 1 is in an empty state, the robot 1 in the transfer area C is sequentially passed through the baggage delivering area a and then through the reflow area B 1 Or waiting area B 2 And enters the charging device H for charging.
Alternatively, the step S400 may be located not only after the step S330 but also after the step S200, and the step S400 may be located between the step S100 and the step S200, or between the step S200 and the step S300 before the step S100.
Alternatively, the robot 1 may return to the charging device H along the transport path where it is in the empty state for charging.
In these alternative embodiments, the sorting system further comprises a return zone B 1 Reflux zone B 1 Is positioned in the waiting area B 2 In the second direction YNear one side of the detection device I. While being located in waiting area B 2 When the robot 1 of (1) does not receive the baggage, the robot 1 can take a shorter path from the reflow region B 1 Move to charging device H without occupying waiting area B 2 In the space, after the robot 1 in the transfer area C unloads the baggage, the robot 1 may be in an empty state and quickly returned to the charging device H for charging.
While the present application has been described with reference to a preferred embodiment, various modifications may be made and equivalents may be substituted for elements thereof without departing from the scope of the present application. In particular, the technical features mentioned in the respective embodiments may be combined in any manner as long as there is no structural conflict. The present application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but encompasses all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
