本申请实施例中,拣选设备可以指在库房中分拣物流对象、打包的装置。用户在购物网站上购买物流对象后,仓库会拣货、打包,然后通过物流将打包好的物流对象(如包裹)配送给用户,完成购物流程。其中,在仓库中拣货、打包的过程可采用拣选设备执行。
拣选设备可包括控制终端、车辆本体;所述车辆本体包括至少一层置物架、至少一个提示组件、至少一个测距传感器和称重传感器,其中,称重传感器可采用各种能够测 量质量的传感器,如重力传感器等。所述至少一个提示组件和至少一个测距传感器设置在所述置物架上;能够一次分拣一个或多个分拣单元,提高分拣效率,通过所述分拣单元对应的提示组件进行物流对象的分拣提示,能够减少查找分拣单元的时间并降低物流对象放入错误分拣单元的概率,同时通过称重传感器测量分拣单元中物流对象的重量信息,可以在分拣过程中降低错误率,保证物流对象分拣的时效性,减少了物流对象出库的时间。本申请实施例中分拣单元指的是置物架上承载物流对象的组件,如可为分拣箱、分拣盘等容器,也可为其他设备,本申请实施例对此不做限制。
参照图1,示出了本申请实施例的一种拣选设备的结构示意图。

本申请实施例中提示组件和放置物流对象的分拣单元对应,从而通过提示组件来提示物流对象的投放如投放位置、数量等,因此提示组件的组合以及放置方式可依据实际场景确定。本申请实施例中,可将拣选设备的置物架上放置分拣单元的位置称为篮位(或箱位)。提示组件的设置方式可有多种,例如在拣选设备的置物架上固定分拣单元对应的篮位,则可在针对每个篮位设置提示组件;又如针对拣选设备的置物架上篮位不固定的情况,可设置多个提示组件,然后依据每次拣选任务对应分拣单元的数量确定提示组件等。
本申请实施例中,可以在车辆本体中设置一个称重传感器,从而该称重传感器在每个分拣单元中放置物流对象时进行称重,通过重量的增量确定分拣单元中放置物流对象的重量。如图1所示的示例中,可以在最底层的置物架下设置称重传感器,从而通过该称重传感器可测量3层置物架的重量,通过增加的重量确定放置物流对象的重量。实际处理中,还可基于场景调整称重传感器的位置和数量,例如在每层置物架下设置一个称重传感器,则称重传感器针对每个置物架进行测量,确定该置物架上各分拣单元中放置物流对象的重量。又如在每个分拣单元下设置称重传感器,则此方式中也可将提示组件和称重传感器组合为一个篮位处理模块,实现对分拣单元放置物流对象的提示和测量。称重传感器可为各种能够测量重量的传感器,如重力传感器等。
测距传感器可测量距离数据,从而辅助称重传感器进行称重测量,测距传感器可检测待投放的物流对象是否经过所述目标分拣单元,若待投放的物流对象经过所述目标分拣单元,控制终端控制所述拣选设备上的称重传感器对所述目标分拣单元中投放的物流对象进行称重。其中,所述测距传感器可为各种能够测量距离数据的传感器,如红外传感器等。
参照图2,示出了本申请的一种拣货方法实施例的步骤流程图。

步骤204,根据所述拣选任务中待投放的物流对象的物流对象信息,控制所述待投放的物流对象对应的目标分拣单元对应的提示组件进行提示。
在获取到拣选任务中待投放的物流对象的物流对象信息后,可依据该物流对象信息,确定该待投放的物流对象对应需要投放的分拣单元为目标分拣单元,从而针对一个待投放的物流对象可确定出一个或多个目标分拣单元,然后可对控制目标分拣单元对应提示组件进行提示,以便于辅助拣选人员进行物流对象的分拣。
步骤206,与所述目标分拣单元对应的测距传感器检测待投放的物流对象是否经过所述目标分拣单元。
在货物分拣的过程中,测距传感器可测量距离信息,从而在有障碍物经过时可测量到距离信息的变化,因此依据测距传感器所测量距离的变化,可判断是否有障碍物经过,相应的,目标分拣单元对应提示组件中的测距传感器进行测量,得到的距离数据可检测待投放的物流对象是否经过所述目标分拣单元。
若是,即待投放的物流对象经过所述目标分拣单元,执行步骤208;若否,即待投放的物流对象未经过所述目标分拣单元,返回步骤206继续检测。
步骤208,控制终端控制所述拣选设备上的称重传感器对所述目标分拣单元中投放的物流对象进行称重。
检测到待投放的物流对象经过所述目标分拣单元,可以认为是在该目标分拣单元中 投放了物流对象,所述控制终端还可发送测量指令给称重传感器,称重传感器测量该目标分拣单元的重量信息,对所述目标分拣单元中投放的物流对象进行称重。
综上,能够一次分拣一个或多个分拣单元,提高分拣效率,通过所述分拣单元对应的提示组件进行物流对象的分拣提示,能够减少查找分拣单元的时间并降低物流对象放入错误分拣单元的概率,同时通过称重传感器测量分拣单元中物流对象的重量信息,可以在分拣过程中降低错误率,保证物流对象分拣的时效性,减少了物流对象出库的时间。

提示组件中配置有提示灯,该提示灯可亮起提示需要当前扫码的物流对象,也可通过闪烁提示当前扫码的物流对象。一个可选实施例中,多于一个分拣单元放置所述待投放的物流对象,也就是目标分拣单元为多个时,所述向目标分拣单元对应的提示组件发送提示指令,包括以下任一种步骤:按照所述待投放的物流对象放置顺序,依次发送提示指令给目标分拣单元对应的提示组件;按照待投放的物流对象放置顺序,给正在投放物流对象的目标分拣单元对应提示组件发送控制灯闪烁的提示指令,且给等待放置物流对象的其他目标分拣单元对应提示组件发送控制灯亮起的提示指令。
一种示例中,在多于一个目标分拣单元时,可确定出待投放的物流对象放置顺序如从左到右、从上到下等顺序,然后控制终端按照该待投放的物流对象放置顺序依次指示每个目标分拣单元对应提示组件进行提示,即先指示第一个目标分拣单元对应提示组件进行提示,在该目标分拣单元放置完物流对象后,再指示下一个目标分拣单元对应的提示组件进行提示,直到所有需要该物流对象的目标分拣单元都放置该物流对象完毕。其中,目标分拣单元放置物流对象完毕可依据测距传感器和称重传感器的测量确定。
另一个示例中,在多于一个目标分拣单元时,控制终端可确定出待投放的物流对象放置顺序,如从左到右、从上到下等顺序,然后向各目标分拣单元对应的提示组件发送控制提示灯亮起的提示指令,并且按照待投放的物流对象放置顺序,向第一个需要放置物流对象的目标分拣单元对应的提示组件发送控制灯闪烁的提示指令;在该第一个目标分拣单元放置物流对象完毕后,向下一个需要放置物流对象的目标分拣单元对应提示组件发送控制灯闪烁的提示指令,以此类推,直到所有需要放置该物流对象的目标分拣单元放置该物流对象完毕。其中,对于放置完物流对象的目标分拣单元可以控制灯亮起,也可以控制灯熄灭,或者控制提示灯投放前后的颜色不同等,本申请实施例对此不做限定。分拣单元放置完物流对象完毕可依据测距传感器和称重传感器的测量确定。

步骤422,控制终端发送测量指令给称重传感器。
本实施例中通过称重传感器测量分拣单元中放置物流对象的重量,从而也可确定所放置物流对象是否足够,减少少放或多放等问题的出现。其中称重传感器可实时测量重量的增量。为了准确的区分不同分拣单元中放置的物流对象的重量,可通过测距传感器测量距离数据,基于距离数据判断是否放置物品,从而提示称重传感器进行测量,此种 方式下称重感应器可依据指示进行测量,还可减少资源的浪费。
其中,还可启动测距传感器测量距离数据,然后将测量的距离数据发送给控制终端,控制终端依据该距离数据判断是否满足距离阈值,其中该距离阈值用于确定是否有待投放的物流对象经过,相应的拣选用户获取的物流对象,将物流对象投掷到分拣单元时,该测距传感器感应到有物体经过,从而测量对应的距离数据,依据该距离数据和距离阈值的比较,确定物流对象是否放置到该分拣单元中,控制终端在判断距离数据满足距离阈值后,认为有物流对象经过,可认为物流对象放置到该分拣单元中,可生成测量指令,然后将该测量指令发送给称重传感器。从而基于称重传感器可确定出是否有物流队形被投放到分拣单元中。
步骤424,称重传感器依据所述测量指令测量重量信息,发送所述重量信息给所述控制终端。
步骤426,控制终端依据称重传感器返回的重量信息核对对应目标分拣单元中物流对象的重量。
称重传感器接收到测量指令后,可测量重量,得到相应的重量信息,发送重量信息给控制终端。控制终端依据该重量信息可确定本次测量增加的重量信息,可依据增重核对对应目标分拣单元中物流对象的重量,如依据增加的重量信息可判断与分拣单元中应该放置的该物流对象的重量是否匹配,若匹配则确认该分拣单元中该物流对象放置完成,否则会继续提示在该分拣单元中放置物流对象。
在另一些实施例中,如果物流对象被错误的投放到非目标分拣单元中,通过非目标分拣单元的测距传感器可测量距离数据,通过控制终端分析该距离数据认为有物流对象被投放,则启动称重传感器测量测量重量信息,控制终端依据该重量信息确认有物流对象被投放,也指示该非目标分拣单元对应提示组件进行提示,如提示灯变为红色并闪烁,又如数字显示模组显示最大值或最小值等并闪烁。从而基于测距传感器和称重传感器的配合,可测量出货物被投放的篮位,并分析投放是否准确,指示提示组件进行相应的提示。
在一个物流对象已放置到所需的各个拣货箱后,可依据控制终端的提示获取下一个所需的物流对象,执行上述步骤410-步骤426,直到置物架上分拣单元所需物流对象装载完毕,也就是置物架上分拣单元拣货完毕。
