通过上述附图,已示出本公开明确的实施例,后文中将有更详细的描述。这些附图和文字描述并不是为了通过任何方式限制本公开构思的范围,而是通过参考特定实施例为本领域技术人员说明本公开的概念。
具体实施方式
这里将详细地对示例性实施例进行说明,其示例表示在附图中。下面的描述涉及附图时,除非另有表示,不同附图中的相同数字表示相同或相似的要素。以下示例性实施例中所描述的实施方式并不代表与本公开相一致的所有实施方式。相反,它们仅是与如所附权利要求书中所详述的、本公开的一些方面相一致的装置和方法的例子。
下面以具体地实施例对本公开的技术方案以及本公开的技术方案如何解决上述技术问题进行详细说明。下面这几个具体的实施例可以相互结合,对于相同或相似的概念或过程可能在某些实施例中不再赘述。下面将结合附图,对本公开的实施例进行描述。
考虑到目前智能仓储系统在进行各种仓储服务时,都是依托人机交互工作站(或操作台)进行物料登记作业,由于入库或出库的物料量较大时,通常会长时间占用操作台(如一批货物须占用全部操作台12小时才能完成入库或者出库),按正常操作流程中将这些出入库都流程中的物料登记部分都依赖操作台进行,就容易导致物料和订单在操作台的登记环节出现拥堵现象,很多其他订单或物料得不到及时的仓储服务,仓储服务效率低下。
为了解决这一问题,本公开实施例提供一种仓储管理方法,通过在包括操作台在内的任意位置设置操作区,进行物料登记服务,不仅能保证仓储服务的正常进行,还避免了物料和订单的拥堵,提高了仓储服务的效率。
下面对本公开实施例的应用场景进行解释:
图1为本公开实施例提供的仓储管理方法的一种应用场景图。如图1所示,在进行仓储服务时,智能仓储系统100通过客户系统101下发操作任务 到交互装置110,并控制仓储机器人120对位于库存区的货架130上的物料131进行提取,并将其移动至人机交互工作站(也可称为操作台)140中,由操作台140的操作人员对待盘点货箱121中的物料进行物料登记;或将操作台140中已进行物料登记的物料131放置到货架上。
需说明的是,图1所示场景中仓储机器人、物料、货架和操作台仅以一个为例进行示例说明,但本公开不以此为限制,也就是说,仓储机器人、物料、货架和操作台的个数都可以是任意的。
以下通过具体实施例详细说明本公开提供的仓储管理方法。
图2为本公开一个实施例提供的仓储管理方法的流程图。该仓储管理方法应用于仓储机器人,如图2所示,本实施例提供的仓储管理方法包括以下步骤:
步骤S201,通过交互装置的信息收发模块接收到来自客户系统的操作任务。
其中,操作任务包含操作类型和待操作对象。
其中,交互装置可以是个人移动终端PDA,也可以是智能手机应用;信息收发模块为能够与智能仓储系统通讯连接的模块,用于接收智能仓储系统发送的信息并能输出和回传信息;客户系统可以为智能仓储系统的一部分,用于记录与外部客户或需求方或订单及库存物料的相关信息,也可以为智能仓储系统的控制处理部分。
操作任务为仓储服务对应的具体任务。操作类型为仓储服务的种类,如物料入库、物料出库、物料盘点或物料整理。待操作对象为仓储服务的具体对象,一般为物料,包括货箱和商品,商品可以单独放置,也可以放置在货箱内;在智能仓储系统的库存区,货箱和商品放置于货架上。
示例性的,操作任务可以表示为将某货架上的20个篮球放置在指定的货箱上,并将货箱放置在具体某货架上,并将该货架上的全部商品做出库处理。
进一步地,仓储管理人员可以手持交互装置,并通过交互装置在智能仓储系统范围内的任意区域获取操作任务。
步骤S202,通过交互装置的图像采集模块确定操作区。
其中,图像采集模块用于采集图像。
在一些实施例中,图像采集装置为包括图像处理模块在内的常规摄像头,也可以为包括数据处理模块的专用的扫描装置。
操作区为仓储管理人员选定的具有确定范围的进行仓储服务的区域。
进一步地,通过图像采集模块采集图像后,通过仓储管理人员选择交互装置上图像中对应的区域或通过交互装置自动识别图像中的区域为操作区,并将操作区的确认信息通过信息收发模块发送给智能仓储系统,从而使仓储机器人获取操作区的位置,并根据操作区的位置规划仓储服务的路径。
在一些实施例中,操作区为库存区内操作台以外的区域,由于操作区就在邻近物料的区域,相比操作台到物料的距离更近,从而缩短仓储服务中物料取放的路径,提高物料取放的时间,进而提高仓储服务的效率。
在一些实施例中,操作区也可以为操作台,通过交互装置的信息收发模块和图像采集模块,能够快速获取需要在操作台进行的任务信息,并能方便地采集操作任务的待操作对象和操作任务的信息,从而辅助仓储管理人员更快速地进行决策和执行相应的物料登记操作,从而提高操作任务的执行效率,进而提高仓储服务的效率。
步骤S203,在操作区内,对待操作对象执行目标操作类型的目标操作。
目标操作类型用于表示操作任务指定的前述仓储服务的种类之一,目标操作为仓储服务对应所需的操作,包括通过交互装置进行物料登记,和需要仓储机器人将指定物料移动至指定位置,指定位置为操作区内的位置或指定的货架。
其中,交互装置进行的物料登记操作限定于在操作区内完成,即前述将操作区替代操作台,进行操作台对应的物料登记作业,以保证操作的灵活性。
步骤S204,通过信息收发模块输出操作任务的执行结果。
当前述物料登记操作完成后,需要向客户系统发送操作任务执行完成的信息。
其中,执行结果包括操作任务执行完成的时间,和执行后的物料信息。示例性的,当执行完入库任务后,向客户系统发送的执行结果可以为特定物料在库存区的具体货架位置和执行完成时间。
可选地,交互装置可以打印前述操作任务和执行结果,以便仓储管理人员留存纸面记录,或根据纸面内容进行进一步操作。
本公开实施例提供的仓储管理方法,通过交互装置的信息收发模块获取操作任务,通过图像采集模块确定操作区,在操作区中执行目标操作任务,并通过信息收发模块输出执行结果。通过在包括操作台在内的任意位置执行 仓储服务的操作任务,在现有操作台的基础上,增加了进行仓储服务的站点,提高了仓储服务的灵活性,还能通过交互装置提高仓储管理人员在现有操作台收发信息并进行物料登记的效率,由此,仓储管理人员可以任意选择方便地位置作为操作区,进行仓储服务,灵活度更高;由于仓储管理人员可以根据操作任务需要,随地形成操作台,操作区可以离物料更近,本方法还能显著提高仓储服务的效率。
图3为本公开另一个实施例提供的仓储管理方法的流程图。本实施例提高的仓储管理方法是在图2所示实施例的基础上对步骤S202的进一步细化,如图3所示,本实施例提供的仓储管理方法包括以下步骤:
步骤S301,通过交互装置的信息收发模块接收到来自客户系统的操作任务。
步骤S302,接收来自图像采集模块的货架图像,根据货架图像确定操作区。
在一些实施例中,图像采集模块为能够拍摄图像的常规摄像头。
其中,货架图像为库存区内存在空余库位的货架的图像,图像一般包括货架中包含库位的完整结构图或者包括有货架可识别信息部分的图像。
在一些实施例中,操作区设置在货架上,以便于仓储机器人对操作区的位置进行定位,以自动进行仓储服务中的部分目标操作。
可选地,货架还包括用于临时放置物料的缓存架。一般地,缓存架与货架上都具有可识别信息,以便于识别缓存架或货架的具体位置。
步骤S303,根据货架图像,确定库位为操作区。
其中,库位设置在货架图像选中的货架上。
在一些实施例中,操作区以货架上的库位为单位,且操作区占用的库位数量为一个或多个,如2个、3个或更多数量。
在一些实施例中,操作区所对应的库位均为事先空置的库位,由此,能够方便在库位上进行仓储服务的各种操作。
在一些实施例中,操作区所对应的库位均为预先录入到智能仓储系统中的位置,智能仓储机器人不需要通过额外的录像、识别和判断功能,只需要对智能仓储系统中对应位置的属性进行修改,就能快速定位操作区所对应的库位。
示例性的,操作区可以为通过图像采集模块采集的某具体货架上至少两 个连续或不连续的空置库位,也可以为某放置在库存区固定位置的缓存架上的所有库位。
步骤S304,在操作区内,对待操作对象执行目标操作类型的目标操作。
对待操作对象的目标操作均在前述库位上进行,当需要只能仓储机器人将目标待操作对象搬运至库位或从库位上搬运至目标位置时,可以通过库位的定位方便直观地找到位置。
步骤S305,通过信息收发模块输出操作任务的执行结果。
在一些实施例中,输出的执行结果包括执行操作任务的操作区信息,即库位所在的具体位置。
本实施例中,通过图像采集模块确定操作区,并将操作区限定为货架上已经存在的库位,在库位上进行操作任务的目标操作,并通过信息收发模块输出包含操作区的执行结果。由此能够方便智能仓储系统和仓储机器人进行快速定位,减少寻找和判断操作区位置的时间,提高仓储服务的效率。同时,由于操作区在货架上,即存在平台用于放置物品,也方便了仓储管理人员的操作,不需要蹲在地上或频繁弯腰,减小了劳动强度。由于货架上的库位为在库存区内任意选择的位置,因而在一般情况下都能选择离待操作对象更近的位置,相比在位置固定的操作台进行操作,能够显著提升仓储服务的灵活性,并缩短搬运待操作对象的时间,提升仓储服务效率。
图4为本公开另一个实施例提供的仓储管理方法的流程图。本实施例提高的仓储管理方法是在图2所示实施例的基础上对步骤S202的进一步细化,本实施例中,待操作对象和操作区均设置有标识码。如图4所示,本实施例提供的仓储管理方法包括以下步骤:
步骤S401,通过交互装置的信息收发模块接收到来自客户系统的操作任务。
在一些实施例中,操作任务所对应的操作对象也包括对应的标识码和位置信息,以方便仓储管理人员选择对应的位置。
步骤S402,通过来自图像采集模块采集操作区的标识码图像;通过交互装置的数据处理模块识别操作区的标识码图像;根据识别结果确定操作区的位置。
在一些实施例中,标识码可以是二维码、条形码、电子标签中的至少一种,标识码可以设置于货架和待操作对象的任意位置,如前表面的中心、右 上角、左下角,底面的中心、顶角处等,标识码可以是根据货架的位置、物料的类型和数量生成的。
进一步地,标识码的识别算法,可以是条形码识别算法(标识码为条形码时),如zbar算法,还可以是二维码识别算法(标识码为二维码时),如Reed Solomon(RS)算法,或者还可以是基于射频识别的算法(标识码为电子标签时)。
在一些实施例中,识别结果包括通过交互装置的信息收发模块向智能仓储系统查询得到已录入的标识码对应操作区信息,操作区信息包括操作区的位置和编号信息。
进一步地,确定操作区的位置包括根据交互装置得到的操作区信息,通过信息收发装置向智能仓储系统发送修改标识码图像对应位置的设置或属性,将标识码图像对应的位置作为操作区。如将某货架的属性由常规置物架设置为操作区。
进一步地,修改标识码图像对应位置的设置或属性的操作为临时修改,且具有设定时间限制。
步骤S403,在操作区内,对待操作对象执行操作类型的目标操作。
在一些实施例中,对待操作对象也进行前述采集标识码图像并进行识别的过程,从而方便智能仓储系统和仓储机器人对待操作对象进行定位,并向智能仓储系统录入待操作对象的信息。
步骤S404,通过信息收发模块输出操作任务的执行结果。
在一些实施例中,执行结果也包括通过标识码图像识别得到的操作区和待操作对象的信息。
本实施例中,在图2所示实施例的基础上,通过细化设置在操作区和待操作对象上的标识码图像,并通过标识码图像识别和录入操作区与待操作对象的信息,根据录入的信息执行操作任务并输出执行结果。由此方便智能仓储系统和仓储机器人进行快速定位,并方便智能仓储系统记录执行结果的具体情况,从而提高智能仓储系统内信息的准确性,降低失误和错误信息的比例,提高仓储服务的可靠性。
图5为本公开另一个实施例提供的仓储管理方法的流程图。本实施例提高的仓储管理方法是在图2所示实施例的基础上将操作任务细化为入库任务。如图5所示,本实施例提供的仓储管理方法包括以下步骤:
步骤S501,通过交互装置的信息收发模块接收到来自客户系统的入库任务。
具体的,入库任务可以包括待进行入库的待操作对象的具体信息,也可以未包括具体信息并通过交互装置录入。
步骤S502,通过交互装置的图像采集模块确定操作区。
具体的,在入库任务中,操作区可以选择完全空置的货架或缓存架,也可以选择具有较多空置位置的货架。
如图5所示,在一些实施例中,操作区为待操作对象在库存区内的储放位置,也可以为待操作对象临时放置的位置,并通过智能仓储机器人搬运至设定的库存区位置。
在一些实施例中,入库任务所选中的操作区为邻近待操作对象的区域,如邻近待执行入库的物料堆放地的货架或缓存架。
步骤S503,在操作区内,对待操作对象执行操作类型的目标操作。
在入库任务中,对待操作对象执行操作类型的目标操作包括:
将待操作对象放置在操作区。
在一些实施例中,将待操作对象放置到操作区的动作通过仓储管理人员完成,也可以通过向仓储机器人下发搬运指令,将已录入信息的待操作对象搬运至操作区。
步骤S504,通过信息收发模块输出操作任务的执行结果。
可选地,在入库任务中,输出操作任务的执行结果包括:
经由图像采集模块采集操作区和待操作对象的图像;
根据操作区和待操作对象的图像,经由信息收发模块向客户系统输出完成入库任务信息,完成入库任务信息用于表示含有操作区和待操作对象的图像的入库任务执行完成的信息。
具体的,当待操作对象为不含物料箱的物料时,目标操作包括通过交互装置录入其信息并放置在操作区上,通过交互装置录入待操作对象所在操作区的具体位置信息;当待操作对象为包含物料箱的商品或物料时,目标操作包括分别录入物料箱和物料的信息,通过交互装置向智能仓储系统回传信息,使智能仓储系统记录物料箱与物料的关联信息,然后通过交互装置录入待操作对象所在操作区的具体位置信息。
当待操作对象已经预先录入智能仓储系统时,则只需要录入待操作对象 所在操作区的具体位置信息即可。
进一步地,操作区和待操作对象的图像为操作区和待操作对象的位置信息和特征图像。
目标操作执行完毕时,输出的执行结果包括前述操作区和待操作对象的位置信息,还包括待操作对象在库存区储放的目标位置。当的待操作对象在库存区储放的目标位置并非操作区上时,需要向仓储机器人下发入库指令,使仓储机器人将待操作对象从操作区搬运至目标位置。
一般的,在操作区的全部位置都已经放置待操作对象或待操作对象已经放置完毕,才输出执行结果。
示例性的,入库任务为20枚的钢锭,库存区已有储放钢锭的货架,因此,仓储管理人员在执行操作任务时,在钢锭放置处邻近的缓存架上执行了前述目标操作,然后向智能仓储系统输出执行结果,并向仓储机器人下发入库指令,待仓储机器人将钢锭搬运至储放钢锭的货架上的指定空置库位,完成全部入库流程。
本实施例中,将操作任务限定为入库任务,由此限定执行的目标操作和输出的执行结果。通过选定操作区进行入库任务,可以在包括操作台在内的任意区域进行入库,由于选定的操作区可以为待入库操作对象的储放区域,不需要从待操作对象的搬运区域移动到操作台,再搬运至储放区域,由此可以显著减小待操作对象的搬运距离,缩短入库任务的执行时间,提高仓储服务的效率。
本实施例提供的仓储管理方法是在图2所示实施例的基础上将操作任务细化为出库任务。本实施例提供的仓储管理方法包括以下步骤:
步骤S601,通过交互装置的信息收发模块接收到来自客户系统的出库任务。
具体的,出库任务可以包括待进行出库的待操作对象的具体信息,如待拣选物料、物料批次、拣选数量和目标产线位置。待操作对象需要放置的位置可以为任意指定位置,如操作台邻近位置处,可以为指定货架,或指定运输车辆。
在一些实施例中,出库任务通过采集指定位置的图像并回传智能仓储系统,得到具体的任务信息。
步骤S602,通过交互装置的图像采集模块确定操作区。
具体的,在出库任务中,操作区一般选择待执行出库操作的待操作对象所在货架;当待操作对象需要放置的目标位置为指定货架或任意智能仓储系统中预先录入的位置时,操作区也可以为待操作对象需要放置的目标位置。
步骤S603,在操作区内,对待操作对象执行操作类型的目标操作。
如图6所示,在出库任务中,对待操作对象执行操作类型的目标操作为将待操作对象放置在操作区。
可选地,待操作对象为物料,对待操作对象执行操作类型的目标操作,包括:将物料放置在操作区。
对于待操作对象为物料的情况,直接将待操作对象放置到操作区,即完成目标操作。例如将需要出库的预先包装好的快递直接放置在指定货架上。
可选地,待操作对象为物料和货箱,对待操作对象执行操作类型的目标操作,包括:将货箱放置在操作区;将物料放置于货箱中。
在一些实施例中,对于待操作对象包括物料和货箱,且需要将物料放进货箱的情况,需要额外将目标货箱搬运至操作区,并将物料放在货箱中并根据任务要求选择打包或不打包。目标货箱可以通过采集待操作对象的指定放置位置的图像并回传智能仓储系统,得到目标货箱的位置信息。
可选地,待操作对象为物料和货箱,且货箱放置在操作区,对待操作对象执行操作类型的目标操作,包括:
对于待操作对象为物料的情况,直接将待操作对象放置到操作区,即完成目标操作。
在一些实施例中,货箱为预先放置在待出库货架上,或直接选择货箱所在货架为操作区时,可以省去搬运货箱的步骤。
进一步地,当待操作对象位于仓储管理人员邻近位置处时,仓储管理人员可以直接将待操作对象放置到货箱中,省去需要仓储机器人搬运的环节。
在一些实施例中,将待操作对象放置到操作区的动作通过仓储管理人员完成,也可以通过向仓储机器人下发搬运指令,将已录入信息的待操作对象搬运至操作区。
步骤S604,通过信息收发模块输出操作任务的执行结果。
可选地,在出库任务中,输出操作任务的执行结果包括:经由图像采集模块采集待操作对象的图像;根据待操作对象的图像,经由信息收发模块向客户系统输出更新库存信息的指令,更新库存信息的指令用于表示根据待操 作对象的图像重新确定库存信息。
具体的,由于出库任务中,待操作对象的放置位置已经预先指定,当操作区位于指定放置位置时,无须录入位置信息,只需要录入待操作对象的信息。而当操作区不在指定放置位置时,还需要录入到操作区的信息并向仓储机器人下发命令,以便仓储机器人进行搬运,但也不需要将操作区位置再回传智能仓储系统并记录。
更新库存信息不需要仓储机器人动作,只需要将被执行出库处理的待操作对象传输至智能仓储系统。对于待操作对象由仓储管理人员而非仓储机器人搬运至指定放置位置时,需要经由图像采集模块采集待操作对象的图像,通过交互装置录入或识别待操作对象的信息,以避免智能仓储系统中未记录该搬运结果。
具体的,待操作对象的图像为操作区和待操作对象的位置信息和特征图像。
一般的,在操作区的全部位置都已经放置待操作对象或待操作对象已经放置完毕,才输出执行结果。
可选地,执行结果发送到智能仓储系统后,智能仓储系统会回传确定清单,以便仓储管理人员检查是否有遗漏。
示例性的,出库任务为分布在不同位置的20枚的钢锭,且出库任务中的指定放置位置已有储放钢锭的货架和货箱,因此,仓储管理人员可以选择指定放置位置为操作区,并向仓储机器人下发搬运钢锭的指令,并将邻近位置处的钢锭手动搬运至指定放置位置,当仓储机器人将钢锭搬运至指定放置位置,通过交互装置录入钢锭信息,并输出更新库存的信息,完成全部出库流程。
本实施例中,操作任务限定为出库任务,由此限定执行的目标操作和输出的执行结果。通过选定操作区进行入库任务,可以在待操作对象需要放置的指定位置进行出库,不需要从待操作对象的储放区域移动到操作台,再搬运至指定位置,由此可以显著减小待操作对象的搬运距离,缩短入库任务的执行时间,提高仓储服务的效率。
本实施例提高的仓储管理方法是在图2所示实施例的基础上将操作任务细化为盘点任务。本实施例提供的仓储管理方法包括以下步骤:
步骤S701,通过交互装置的信息收发模块接收到来自客户系统的出库任 务。
具体的,盘点任务可以包括待进行盘点的待操作对象的具体信息,如待盘点的物料种类、库存数量,且包括待操作对象的所在位置。
步骤S702,通过交互装置的图像采集模块确定操作区。
具体的,在盘点任务中,操作区一般选择待执行整理操作的待操作对象所在货架,而不需要用临时的缓存架,以避免搬运操作,提高操作任务的执行效率。
步骤S703,在操作区内,对待操作对象执行操作类型的目标操作。
可选地,在盘点任务中,对待操作对象执行操作类型的目标操作为:经由图像采集模块采集包含待操作对象的图像;根据包含待操作对象的图像,盘点待操作对象的信息,待操作对象的信息包含待操作对象的数量、种类和位置信息中的至少一种。
具体的,物料盘点包括盘点和核对物料的数量和种类是否与操作任务中的记录相同,或者核对物料的数量和种类并录入。
步骤S704,通过信息收发模块输出操作任务的执行结果。
可选地,在盘点任务中,输出操作任务的执行结果包括:经由图像采集模块采集待操作对象的图像;根据待操作对象的图像,向客户系统输出盘点完成信息,盘点完成信息用于表示根据待操作对象的图像重新确定库存的信息。
具体的,盘点任务的执行结果为待操作对象的信息,而不需要操作区的信息。包含待操作对象的图像可以为待操作对象的整体摄像,也可以为待操作对象的可识别特征信息的局部摄像。
无论盘点结果是否与智能仓储系统中的操作任务上的记录相同,盘点任务完成之后需要重新确定库存,以记录完成的任务情况。
一般的,在盘点任务全部完成后,才输出执行结果。
本实施例中,操作任务限定为盘点任务,由此限定执行的目标操作和输出的执行结果。通过选定操作区进行盘点任务,可以直接在待操作对象所在位置进行盘点,不需要移动待操作对象,且能快速更新盘点的库存信息记录。由此可以显著减小待操作对象的搬运距离,缩短盘点任务的执行时间,提高库存信息更新的速率,提高仓储服务的效率。
本实施例提高的仓储管理方法是在图2所示实施例的基础上将操作任务 细化为整理任务。本实施例提供的仓储管理方法包括以下步骤:
步骤S801,通过交互装置的信息收发模块接收到来自客户系统的出库任务。
具体的,整理任务可以包括待进行整理的待操作对象的具体信息,如待整理的物料种类和所在位置。
步骤S802,通过交互装置的图像采集模块确定操作区。
具体的,在整理任务中,操作区一般选择待执行整理操作的待操作对象所在货架,或邻近待操作对象的空置的缓存架,以保证有足够的空间执行整理操作。
步骤S803,在操作区内,对待操作对象执行操作类型的目标操作。
可选地,在盘点任务中,对待操作对象执行操作类型的目标操作为:对待操作对象进行物料整理。
具体的,物料整理的对象一般包括物料和货箱,物料整理包括对待整理的待操作对象所在位置,及货箱内物料的放置进行整理。
步骤S804,通过信息收发模块输出操作任务的执行结果。
可选地,在整理任务中,输出操作任务的执行结果包括:经由图像采集模块采集待操作对象的图像;根据待操作对象的图像,向客户系统输出整理完成信息,整理完成信息用于表示根据待操作对象的图像重新确定库存的信息。
具体的,整理任务的执行结果为待操作对象的信息,而不需要操作区的信息。包含待操作对象的图像一般为整理后的待操作对象的整体状态图像。
一般的,在整理任务全部完成后,才输出执行结果。
本实施例中,操作任务限定为整理任务,由此限定执行的目标操作和输出的执行结果。通过选定操作区进行整理任务,可以直接在待操作对象所在位置或邻近的缓存架上进行整理,减小对待操作对象的移动,且能快速更新整理后的待操作对象信息。由此可以显著减小待操作对象的搬运距离,缩短整理任务的执行时间,提高库存信息更新的速率,提高仓储服务的效率。
