The invention further relates to a warehouse for picking goods with a variety of shelves for temporary storage of goods to be picked, wherein the shelves are spaced apart by rack aisles. The invention also relates to a picking trolley for picking goods stored in a warehouse goods with storage areas for temporary storage of goods to be picked, being arranged at the storage Blickfangein directions.

Generic data glasses and methods for operating such data glasses are already known from the prior art. Data glasses, like ordinary eyeglasses, worn on the head of a user, wherein on a display surface of the data glasses the user information is provided, which can be read gefläche on the Anzei.

A generic data glasses for displaying information is known for example from DE 10 2016 212 802 Al, wherein the data glasses at least one Anzeigeein direction for displaying electronically generated information on a transparent display surface comprises a perception of a real environment in the field of view of a user with a displayed Overlay information on the display area. A picking system is known from DE 10 2012 016 552 A1, which comprises at least one rack, at least one picking vehicle and at least one guideway arranged in front of a shelf front of the at least one rack for the at least one picking vehicle. The picking system also has an optical guide device with means for emitting a first, second and third light beam, with the first light beam a target position increasing from the picking vehicle, with the second light beam a predetermined shelf, a container or component located therein , and with the third light beam, a predetermined location on the picking vehicle is specified.

The invention is based on the object, in particular generic methods further disgusting and therefore to provide the prior art an improvement or an alternative.

According to a first aspect, the object of the invention is achieved, on the one hand, by a method for operating data glasses with a display device for visualizing information, in which a user of the data glasses is visualized the information on a display surface of the display device, whereby the method is characterized characterized in that by means of the display device additional information to be carried out activity sequences depending on maintenance, repair work, and / or installation, disarmament, or retooling visualized.

The visualization of imminent activities or related sequences of activities on the data glasses ensures high-quality and therefore excellent guidance through work processes and processes, so that work can be carried out more precisely, more effectively and thus more cost-effectively. Furthermore, by performing the activities can be carried out more reliable here, whereby the risk of injury to an employee, such as a service technician or the like, can be significantly reduced. In this case, these activity sequences can be visualized virtually both in advance of the execution of the individual pending activities and cumulatively or alternatively at the same time as the execution of the activities, as a result of which the real activities can be carried out in a targeted manner and thus more quickly and reliably.

In any case, this makes it possible for forthcoming activities or activity sequences to be visualized as additional information on the display device or by means of the display device, so that the user of the data glasses can be guided very reliably by the individual method steps or work steps.

Cumulatively or alternatively, however, it is also advantageous if activities already carried out are visualized in retrospect again virtually in order to enable or facilitate follow-up control.

Conceptually, the following is explained:

The term "data glasses" in the context of the invention describes any device with which a user or a person visualized additional information, that is displayed in a readable manner.

Such data glasses are often referred to as "augmented reality glasses" and are well known in the art. In this respect, specific features with regard to the hardware or software with regard to the data glasses are discussed here only to the extent that in the present case data glasses are already being used if a frame which can be worn by a head is a suitable display device for visualizing information, be it in writing or not. in pictures, graphics or the like.

In any case, in the present case, the term "data glasses" describes in particular all "au gumented reality head devices", with which information can be visualized. In the sense of the invention, the present data glasses are thus also a "smart wearable" and they are at least characterized in that they can be used to carry out the methods according to the invention.

It is understood that in this case several such data glasses can be used, which in this case can be realized as so-called "clients" in a computer-aided system.

The term "display device" in the context of the invention describes any Einrich lines, by means of which information for a person in their view or field vi are presented suell, be it by at least one display area on the data glasses egg nerseits. Such a display surface is preferably transparent and at least semi-transparent, so that a real environment and at least one virtual environment can be perceived superimposed.

Or a display area is cumulative on the other hand implemented by various NEN display surfaces, by means of which the person additional information can be visualized. It is intended, for example, to remotely located optically markable areas or parts of a system or the like, with a suitable opti cal marking can be done for example by a light beam.

The terms "user", "person", employee or the like are used interchangeably in the sense of the invention, and generally describe a user of the method or the data glasses, such as an on-site employee or service technician ,

It should be pointed out here that in the context of the present patent application indefinite articles and indefinite numbers such as "a ...", "two ...", etc. are usually to be understood as at least disclosures, ie "At least one .." at least two .. etc, unless it's from the context or the specific text of a particular passage, it should be said that there, for example, only "exactly one", exactly two, etc., should be meant.

It should also be mentioned at this point that in the context of the present patent application the expression "in particular" should always be understood as meaning that an optional, preferred feature is introduced with this expression. The term is not to be understood as "and indeed" and not as "namely", but exclusively as "preferably".

In this case, the additional information or its content can preferably be based on the respective activities to be carried out, such as those carried out for maintenance work, maintenance work, repair work or even installation, set-up or retooling work.

On the other hand, the object of the invention is thus also achieved by a method for supporting an activity-executing person, in which information is visualized on at least one display surface of a display device of a data goggle, wherein additional information on the activity sequences to be carried out in at least one display surface is provided Depending on maintenance, repair work, and / or installation, disassembly or retooling visuali Siert.

In this case, the person or the user is advantageously guided through the individual tasks to be performed by means of the data glasses by visualizing the activity sequences to be performed on the at least one display surface of the display device of the data glasses.

For example, service technicians often face a number of challenges in repair and / or maintenance tasks where they often have to use both hands to perform manual labor. They are often added Such activities require additional information about maintenance procedures or the like on site.

In the present invention, however, a service technician has a variety of required additional information, such as checklists or the like, directly visually in front of the eye, without restricting his freedom of movement or his efficiency.

Here, for example, "work instructions" for improved process sequences can be visualized by visual "step-by-step" instructions on the data glasses.

Advantageously, additional information can be provided by "smart wearables" in a process exactly at the time of the need, ie just in time, when they are needed.

As a result, the error rates after prototype tests can be reduced by up to 90%, especially in the case of extensive assembly processes. In addition, a training phase for new employees can be reduced by up to 25%.

In particular, through the use of semi-transparent data glasses, the hands-free freedom of movement of a service technician is completely retained and the real environment can be enriched by the insertion of virtual information on sequences of activities to be carried out.

The variety of functions can go beyond the mere decision support, such as a selection of the sequence of steps, the localization of required parts or the display of relevant parameters, go beyond and be supplemented by additional documen- tation aids, communication methods or learning options.

Advantageously, a display of digital additional information in the sense The invention even allows an interactive education and training directly in a work process.

An interaction with virtual objects also makes it possible, for example, to retrieve detailed information about the respective object. Relevant data, confirmation mechanisms and documentation options are therefore always available exactly where an employee needs them. In the present case, care of data can, for example, preferably take place for all persons or data glasses (clients) involved at a central workstation which is equipped with an intuitive, office-like user interface, whereby these clients or the workstation form part of a corresponding workstation System arrangement can be.

It is particularly advantageous if the activity sequences to be carried out are individually created or planned and / or changed. As a result, it is possible to react very efficiently to customer-specific requirements, changed working conditions or unforeseen events during work, or the like.

Another preferred variant of the invention provides that the additional information visualizes mandatory activity parameters, recommended activities, documentation aids, communication and learning possibilities or the like.

Advantageously, a multiplicity of very different parameters, such as, for example, the sequence of assembly steps, required torques or the like, can thus be visualized.

For example, the additional information with regard to the mandatory activity parameters visualizes precise work instructions, for example in the form of a step-by-step start-up.

In another case, the additional information can visualize activity recommendations, which decision aids or solution proposals for the Users so that they can be very well supported in their decision making on site.

For example, the additional information can also be visualized as a function of unforeseeable work progress or work situations, whereby a user receives particularly good support in his activities to be performed. For example, if a field service technician can not solve a problem based on his or her knowledge, a stand-by expert can be consulted, such as a remote maintenance system, using data goggles across site boundaries using the present techniques is possible, for example during maintenance work or repairs to defective systems or machines.

In this case, for example, an engineering team can be connected to the service technician on site by video telephony and the latter can be supported by further additional expert knowledge and documentation knowledge from the design department. As a result, not only travel costs can be reduced by service personnel ultimately, but also downtime on the relevant plant relationship, as well as machine.

The proposed methods can be further developed if the additional information visualizes designated work areas depending on the activity sequences to be performed. For example, areas of equipment, machines or the like can be visualized on at least one display surface of the display device so that the user can directly recognize the relevant work areas without specific equipment or machine knowledge. In this context, it is also advantageous for the additional information to visualize necessary tools, materials, components or spare parts as a function of the sequences of activities that lead to them. As a result, the user learns in an optically simple manner, for example, which tools are required for which work area, or which spare parts have to be picked up and mounted in which order after disassembly. This also allows a significant time savings and also significantly reduce the error rate during disassembly and / or assembly operations.

Cumulatively or alternatively, it is advantageous if designated workspaces and / or required tools, materials, components or spare parts are marked in depen dence of activities to be performed optically this way, any required resources can be located in a very simple manner, so that a related use made extremely reliable can. Thus, a higher reliability can be achieved in terms of activities to be performed.

A visual support of the user can be further improved if the durchzu leading activity sequences are displayed not only static but dynamic, for example, as a series running image series. Thus, disassembly or assembly processes can be visualized and demonstrated even more clearly.

In this respect, it is advantageous in the present case if the additional information to durchzu leading activity sequences are dynamically visualized.

In addition, it is advantageous if the additional information to be performed the activity sequences are visualized on two display surfaces in order to represent the durchzufüh-generating activity sequences spatially.

Furthermore, it is advantageous if the additional information to be carried out activity sequences are visualized interactively depending on work events. For example, the order of activity sequences is changed, other activity sequences visualized or the like, when unforeseen difficulties occur in performing the activities.

If, cumulatively or alternatively, the additional information on the sequence of activities to be carried out is visualized as a function of data acquisition by bar code data, RFTD data or the like, the activity sequences to be carried out can be adapted to work progresses in a particularly interactive manner. For example, if during maintenance or disassembly work previously hidden components by corresponding detection devices, such as bar code scanners or the like, are detected.

For example, a step-by-step instruction can be performed, for example, on the basis of bar code data which are located on work areas of a system or a machine and / or on defective or new components.

The object of the invention is achieved according to a second aspect, firstly by a United drive for operating a data glasses with a display device for visualizing information in which a user of the data glasses NEN information on a display surface of the display device are visualized, the method thereby characterized in that waypoints and / or destination points of abarbei border picking path are displayed on at least one display area of the display device.

By displaying the waypoints and / or destination points within the meaning of the invention, an activity sequence to be carried out, namely the activation of routes and / or destination points, can be substantially facilitated.

In particular, a navigation through a warehouse for a picker, which work off a picking with his picking assigned to him a picking must, significantly relieved. In particular, a finding of relevant rack aisles of a warehouse can in the present case be carried out faster and, above all, extremely error-free, ideally error-free.

As a result, the risk of double distances or collisions with other active pickers can be significantly reduced or even completely excluded.

The object of the invention is in this context on the other hand also solved by a method for picking goods, in which goods to be picked between a shelf and a mobile order picking or vice versa are passed, and in which at least one destination point for picking goods visually displayed is, wherein the method is characterized in that the at least one destination further still at least one additional waypoint to be processed picking path is displayed. This also significantly facilitates navigation through a warehouse for a picker, which has to work through a picking path with a picking trolley assigned to it. In particular, locating relevant rack aisles of a warehouse can in this case be effected faster and, above all, extremely error-free, ideally error-free, even without appropriately equipped data glasses. In the present case, the term "picker" refers to the employees who process the picking orders in a warehouse.

The term "destination point" in the sense of the invention describes a place where a picking trolley is "parked in between" in order to pick and exchange goods between a rack and the picking trolley. The term "waypoint" in the present case describes a location on the way to a destination; For example, a change of direction is taken at a waypoint before, or the like. As a rule, no order picking takes place at such a waypoint.

For the purposes of the invention, a picking path has at least one destination point, but usually several destination points, and preferably at least one waypoint, but usually several waypoints.

At least one destination point and at least one waypoint result in a picking route, which can be displayed partially as partial routes or as a complete route optically within the meaning of the invention. A destination or waypoint may also be configured as a planar or multidimensional area; For example, as a line or the like.

It is advantageous if at least one destination point and / or at least one additional waypoint is displayed on at least one smart wearable device, the picking path, the rack and / or a rack aisle. As a result, display devices required for the method can be made structurally simple, whereby the method can be very easily integrated into an existing warehouse.

The term "smart wearable device" in the sense of the invention describes any digital display device by means of which at least waypoints can be displayed. Suitable for the process suitable "smart wearable device" are known from the prior art and can be provided for example by a smartphone or the like, on which runs a corresponding picking application. In this respect, the use of a "smart-wearable-device" in particular without the other features of the invention is also advantageous, since hereby, among other things, waypoints of a picking route can be displayed.

The object of the invention according to a third aspect of a method for picking goods, in which goods to be picked between a shelf and a picking trolley or vice versa are handed over, and in which at least one destination point for picking goods is visually displayed wherein the method is characterized in that picking orders are optically coded individually.

By means of such an optical coding, different order picking orders can be visually distinguished with particular ease.

Thus, activity sequences can be visually highlighted very well. Especially the navigation through a warehouse can be carried out more advantageously than before.

In particular, navigating multiple pickers through a warehouse can be made much more effective by optical coding.

This alone can advantageously further develop a picking of goods, so that this feature combination is already advantageous without the other features of the invention.

It goes without saying that an optical coding can be implemented differently, for example, in addition to permanently illuminating bulbs, additionally by different flashing sequences of light sources, in particular bulbs of eye-catching devices. The term "eye catching device" in the sense of the present invention describes any device by means of which the visual attention of a person can be achieved. In this way, for example, a next activity, such as a navigation to a waypoint, can be optically initiated. An embodiment which is advantageous even without the other features provides that different order colors are assigned for the purpose of making an order. As a result, a color coding of order picking to be carried out in a very simple way possible.

Advantageously, each individual picking order can be assigned its own execution color. As a result, concurrent commissioning orders can be more clearly distinguished from each other and more effectively done, especially if several pickers with their respective picking orders are in action.

A particularly preferred embodiment provides that individual target points and / or waypoints are assigned different execution colors depending on picking orders to be executed. As a result, a Orientie tion or navigation even made by very large warehouse clearer who the. This is extremely advantageous, especially with a large number of pickers in use. Furthermore, it is advantageous in terms of a clear assignment, if individual pick ern depending on commissioning commissioning orders to be assigned from different guide colors. For example, a picker and an order picking order associated with it can be virtually linked with a first color, so that orientation in a warehouse can be made much easier in the sense of the invention. Such an assignment can be made, for example, via a smart wearable device assigned to the picker. Advantageously, the corresponding color can be displayed on the smart wearable device.

Furthermore, it is particularly expedient if individual order picking trolleys are virtually assigned different execution colors as a function of picking orders to be executed. As a result, a clear assignment of commissioning mats, picking orders and pickers is easily possible.

With regard to a further advantageous embodiment variants, it is advantageous if a number of goods to be picked of a single order picking order is displayed by means of a corresponding number of light-emitting diodes (LED).

Light-emitting diodes represent a very favorable technical solution for the realization of luminous means, in particular color-controllable light sources.

In this respect, eye catching devices with suitable LEDs can be cost-effective and reliable, and therefore can be excellently realized or equipped. It is particularly advantageous if first goods, in particular the number of first goods to be picked, of a first picker by means of LEDs in a first color and at the same destination second goods, in particular the number of goods to be picked two ter goods of a second picker by means of LED's be displayed in a second color.

It goes without saying that a large number of order picking orders can be carried out extremely clearly in a number of "n" pickers with "n" color assignments in a warehouse equipped with a suitable system.

The object of the invention is still solved by a method for operating a data glasses with a display device for visualizing information in which a user of the data glasses information to a fourth aspect a display surface of the display device are visualized, and in which radio functions of the data glasses are acknowledged by means of an acknowledgment located at a Quittierort, wherein the method is characterized in that the Quittierort, in particular depending on functions of the data glasses, is changed.

Thus, an acknowledgment location can be selected almost arbitrarily, whereby action sequences can be better adapted to a present activity.

The object of the invention is furthermore achieved according to a fifth aspect of data glasses with a display device which has one or more display surfaces, and with a carrying device for carrying the data glasses on the head of a user, wherein the data glasses are characterized in that the display device is set up to perform one of the methods described here.

Such a pair of data glasses represents a considerable advantage for a user since the user can be provided with significantly more information that can be read without having to pay attention to the activities to be performed, for example to read assembly information from paper data sheets or the like to have to.

The description "set up for this" describes in the present case that the data glasses are equipped with corresponding devices in order to be able to carry out the individual process variants. Since a wide variety of devices can be used to implement this, the selection and adaptation of which the person skilled in the art does not need to be inventive, they are not explicitly described here so as not to limit the invention unnecessarily.

The object is achieved according to a sixth aspect of the invention of data glasses with a display device, which has one or more display surfaces, and with a carrying device for carrying the data glasses on the head of a user, wherein the data glasses are distinguished by a device which can be arranged independently of location for actuating, in particular acknowledging, functions provided by means of the data glasses, in particular displayed.

In this way, it is achieved that the acknowledgment location can be provided at a location other than the data glasses or a spectacle frame or the like, which may be advantageous in some applications since the hand no longer necessarily has to be guided against the data glasses for actuation. It has been recognized in the present case that this can significantly streamline workflows. It is intended only for applications in which both hands are needed for assembly operations or the like.

Advantageously, in this way a remote acknowledgment device can be realized in particular, wherein the remote acknowledgment device is specially characterized in that it can be placed almost anywhere regardless of the location of a data goggle or objectionable to a data goggle.

For example, a corresponding acknowledgment location or a corresponding remote acknowledgment device can be realized by means of a smart wearable device or the like. The object of the invention is achieved in this connection after a seventh by a device for actuating, in particular for acknowledging, by means of the data glasses provided, in particular displayed, functions, wherein the Actuate device is on the different from the smart glasses Acknowledgment optionally arrange bar , The actuating device is advantageously designed to be operated and arranged away from the data glasses, whereby in particular the advantages already described above with regard to the correspondingly equipped data glasses can be achieved. For this purpose, for example, the actuating device has a data connection to the data glasses or functional components thereof, so that actuating or acknowledgment signals can be transmitted between the data glasses and the actuating device without difficulty.

A related preferred embodiment provides that the Betätigungsein direction at least one of the data glasses different smart wearable device summarizes. The present actuator can be realized by at least one smart wearable device, for example by means of a smartphone, on which a ent speaking application runs.

The object is achieved according to an eighth aspect of the invention by a system consisting of at least one pair of data glasses and at least one computer communicating therewith, in which by means of the computer information is kept, and in which this information is visualized on the data glasses, wherein the system a data glasses and / or means for actuating according to one of the features described herein.

Advantageously, a plurality of data glasses can be incorporated into the system, wherein the work to be done at the place of use is deposited in terms of data technology on at least one computer communicating with the data glasses and the respective additional information on activity sequences to be carried out is stored on the respective data glasses.

The respective data glasses can, for example, be matched with a display device which is suitable for this with regard to the required additional information and then either offline, but preferably online, whereby a data goggle communicating online with the respective computer is individually adjustable on-site prob lematics. It is possible that the maintenance of the data for the additional information to be performed activity sequences or the like may be stored, for example, to a central computer, for example, a central workplace of the computer can be equipped with an intuitive, window-based surface.

The object of the invention is achieved according to a ninth aspect of a warehouse for picking goods with a variety of shelves for temporary storage of goods to be picked, the shelves are spaced by rack aisles to each other, and wherein the warehouse by optically codier bare, in particular color coded, eye catching equipment distinguishes.

By means of such an optical coding, different picking orders can be differentiated visually particularly easily. In particular, the navigation of multiple pickers through a warehouse can be made much more effective decor by a made in the context of the invention optical encoding.

Simply by the features of the optical coding picking before geous be further developed, so that this feature combination is already without the other features of the invention is advantageous.

In particular, in the present case, an advantageous color coding system can be established at the warehouse, as a result of which picking orders can be carried out considerably more quickly and reliably.

The object of the invention is in addition to a tenth aspect of a picking trolley for picking goods interchangeable in a warehouse goods th with storage spaces for temporary storage of commissioning Wa- dissolved, wherein at the storage places eye catching devices are arranged, and wherein the order picking is characterized by optically codable, especially color coded bare, eye catching devices. By means of such a picking trolley, at least the effects and advantages already described with regard to the goods warehouse can be achieved.

An easy-to-implement embodiment provides that the optically encodable, in particular color coded eye-catching devices comprise colored controllable light means. As a result, colored and therefore individual codes can be achieved in a variety of ways in a warehouse or in a goods picking system.

If the color-controlled illuminants can be switched depending on picking orders in order to illuminate them individually, different order-picking orders in a warehouse can be distinguished even more clearly from one another.

The present invention can be structurally very simple and therefore very cost-effective realized with regard to the goods picking when the color-controllable light sources are designed by light emitting diodes (LED).

In general, by means of the proposed solutions with regard to the goods commissi on advantageously picking paths of several pickers are so ned so that the risk is almost impossible that picking two or more picker superimposed temporally and / or locally unfavorable especially in a rack aisle. As a result, delays in order picking can be avoided even more reliable times.

It goes without saying that the features of the solutions described above or in the claims can optionally also be combined in order to be able to implement the advantages and effects that can be achieved in the present case in a cumulative manner Further features, effects and advantages of the present invention will be explained with reference to the appended drawing and the following description, in which examples of methods for supporting an activity-executing person during the export of maintenance work and order-picking work are illustrated and described. In the drawing show:

The data glasses 4 further has a camera 11, which is integrated in this Ausfüh approximately example in the display device 7. By means of the camera 11, for example, barcodes or the like can be read.

Furthermore, the data glasses 4 embody a client (not numbered again) which, in addition to at least one computer 14 communicating with the data glasses 4 via WLAN, belongs to a common system 15 by means of which the methods described here can be carried out particularly advantageously.

The activity sequence 3 to be carried out in this exemplary embodiment starts with information about a first action 20 of the activity sequence 3 to be carried out, namely the visualization of a checklist (not shown) on the display surface 8, so that the service technician in a first step obtains an overall view of the to be able to procure maintenance activities. The service technician acknowledges the completion of this first action 20 by means of the confirmation device 9 at the acknowledgment location 10.

Subsequently, a second action 21 of the sequence of actions 3 to be performed is visualized on the display surface 8, wherein the second activity 21 includes the visualization of participating work areas of the machine, serviceable parts, tools, spare parts and / or other work equipment. The completion of this second action 21 takes place again by means of the confirmation device 9. By means of a third action 22 of the sequence of operations 3 to be performed, first parts to be serviced or checked are visually highlighted together with the tools required for this purpose, leaving the service technician the choice of cleaning or replacing the parts. The selection can be made by confirming this.

Here, as further components of the sequence of actions 3 to be carried out, either the visualization of the cleaning sequence 23 (left path) follows with four working steps 24 or the visualization of the exchange sequence 25 (right path) with three working steps 26. It is up to the technician to decide on site whether the parts can be cleaned and reused, or whether the parts need to be replaced. The reference numeral 27 indicates "n" other actions of the sequence of actions 3 to be carried out, with the last action 28 terminating the sequence of actions 3 to be carried out.

For example, this last action 28 visualizes a summary with all the activities performed in comparison with the original sequence of actions 3 to be performed.

The further embodiment shown in Figure 3 shows at least partially a warehouse 30 of a goods picking system 31, wherein only four shelves 35, 36, 37, 38 of the warehouse 30 are exemplarily shown here.

The shelves 35, 36, 37, 38 are spaced from each other and by the width (not explicitly numbered) of the respective shelf aisle 39, 40 and 41, which rule between the shelves 35, 36, 37, 38 are formed.
