Description

A tobacco distribution system and method

technical field

The invention relates to the field of tobacco logistics, in particular to a tobacco logistics distribution system and method.

Background technique

In the tobacco industry, tobacco in various regions is uniformly distributed. The products of tobacco distributors in various places are uniformly distributed by tobacco logistics centers in various regions. In the tobacco logistics center, various types of tobacco products are unpacked and packaged, and repacked according to the orders of various tobacco dealers.

The distribution of cigarettes mainly uses turnover boxes. The turnover box is a reusable loading container, the box body is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, with a certain volume and moderate weight. Tobacco companies mainly use turnover boxes to load cigarettes for tobacco distribution, and the turnover boxes are recycled after delivery.

At present, the tobacco sorting business is generally divided into fully automatic sorting lines and semi-automatic sorting lines.

The turnover box of the automatic sorting line is bound to the customer based on the one-dimensional barcode used as the box identification code. Before the turnover box starts to be packed, the barcode reader is fixed to read the barcode of the turnover box, and the sorting system obtains the barcode information Finally, bind the turnover box with the corresponding customer information; when the turnover box arrives at the exit, the fixed barcode reader at the exit scans the barcode of the turnover box and prints out a paper turnover box label with self-adhesive, the turnover box On the off-line pallet, the staff will pull the pallet to the designated storage position according to the storage position information on the label of the paper turnover box. According to the delivery sequence information prompted by the paper label, the delivery personnel will combine the tail boxes and load them in reverse order.

The binding relationship between the turnover box of the semi-automatic sorting line and the customer is based on the printed paper turnover box label queue sequence number and the customer. When the turnover box starts to be packed, the sorting system prints the paper label of the turnover box, and at the same time prints the serial number of the turnover box on the label, and the delivery personnel deliver according to the label information affixed to the turnover box.

After the tobacco distribution is completed, the empty box recycling management adopts the method of manual counting and counting to check the quantity, and the deliveryman and the dispatcher jointly confirm and sign to complete the empty box recycling handover.

In the above process, on the tobacco sorting line, paper labels with self-adhesive labels are applied to the turnover boxes by manual labeling. After multiple pastings, multiple layers of label paper will be left on the turnover boxes. In the distribution process of the turnover box, there will be some misreading and mistakes. In addition, self-adhesive label paper is a consumable product, and a new label needs to be pasted every time it is used, which increases production costs.

In addition, in the process of tobacco distribution, in order to monitor the distribution of tobacco, it is generally used to set a scannable two-dimensional code or one-dimensional barcode on the above-mentioned self-adhesive label paper. When the distribution is completed, the distribution staff scans the code. Upload delivery completion time. However, since the code is set on the label paper of the turnover box, the delivery personnel can scan it at any time, and it is impossible to supervise whether the delivery personnel is scanning after completing the delivery. Therefore, how to ensure that each tobacco dealer receives the tobacco distributed by the logistics center and how to effectively supervise the distribution process has also become an important problem to be solved in the tobacco logistics center.

detailed description

Example 1:

This embodiment provides a tobacco logistics distribution system, which is used in tobacco logistics storage to distribute tobacco. The Tobacco Logistics Center collects the tobacco of each tobacco manufacturer here, and then receives orders from various distributors according to the area it is responsible for, obtains the tobacco brand and quantity information in the order, and then classifies the products of the tobacco manufacturers based on this information. Pick, get the tobacco contained in each order, and then pack it into a turnover box for distribution. After the distribution is completed, recycle the turnover box.

The schematic diagram of the storage center is shown in Figure 1. It is used to split the boxes of tobacco from the manufacturer into strips, and pack the tobacco into turnover boxes according to the orders of each dealer to generate the order products of the dealers. , in the storage center, the storage area is used to store tobacco, store the whole boxes of tobacco from tobacco manufacturers and the turnover boxes loaded in the sorting area, and the sorting area is used to sort the whole boxes of tobacco according to the orders of distributors Pick, load into the turnover box, and write the corresponding business information of the order into the information identification card of the turnover box. When the turnover box is loaded and written, it will also enter the storage area for temporary storage, and then send it to the delivery area Carry out delivery. After the distribution is completed, the turnover box is recycled, and the turnover box is recycled and sorted in the turnover box recycling management area.

The structural block diagram of the tobacco logistics distribution system in the present embodiment is as shown in Figure 2, mainly includes the following several parts:

The unpacking device removes the original packing box of the tobacco and sends the unpacked tobacco into the sorting system. Here, the large boxes of tobacco delivered by various tobacco manufacturers are mainly sorted by strips after unpacking. For tobacco distributors, the unit of measure for each type of tobacco in the order is the stick.

The sorting system sorts the unpacked tobacco on the sorting line according to the business order, and sorts out the tobacco contained in the order. There are several transmission channels on the sorting line, and the tobacco unpacked by the unpacking device is conveyed from each conveyor belt, and the tobacco in each single product is pushed together according to the customer's order to generate a single order.

The turnover box is provided with a box identification code on the box body of the turnover box, and an information identification card is also arranged on the box body, and the box identification code and the address code of the information identification card and the information identification card Clear code identification number binding. Among them, the box identification code is a one-dimensional barcode, which can be read by a barcode scanner, and the information identification card is an RFID tag, which can be read and written by an RFID reading and writing device. The address code of the information identification card is the TID address code of RFID, which is used for reading and writing operations. The clear identification code of the information identification card is the serial number displayed on the RFID label. Since the RFID label is a white card, it will be difficult to distinguish if there is no external mark, so the serial number is printed on the outside of the RFID label. , as a clear code identification code, so that after the staff scans through the terminal to know the business information of the RFID tag, they can also distinguish it through the clear code identification code of the RFID, which is convenient for management.

The box packing equipment reads the box identification code of the turnover box, that is, the above-mentioned one-dimensional barcode, and loads the tobacco contained in an order sorted out by the sorting system into the turnover box.

The information identification card reading and writing device, preferably an RFID reading and writing device, writes the order information of the loaded items into the information identification card of the turnover box after the turnover box completes the loading task. In order to ensure the accuracy of reading and writing, the RFID reading and writing equipment is actually two sets of devices, including a primary reading and writing device and a verification reading and writing device, wherein the primary reading and writing device is used to read the information identification card of the turnover box address code, obtain the order information corresponding to the turnover box through the data in the sorting system, and write the order information into the information identification card. The verification reading and writing device is used to read the information in the information identification card again. If the reading fails, it will write again. After writing again, it will read and verify again. If it still fails, you can choose to write manually offline , or by setting the return channel, return to the upper-level verification read-write device to read and write again, until the read and write is successful, and then enter the subsequent production line.

Since the turnover box is sequentially transported to the location of the RFID reading and writing device through the transmission equipment for reading and writing operations, before performing the writing operation, it is necessary to read the address code of the RFID tag first, and then write, because the writing operation of the RFID is affected The impact of the external environment is relatively large. If there are many external interference signals, writing errors are prone to occur. For example, when there are multiple RFID tags in the outside world, signal interference is likely to occur, and writing failures are likely to occur. Therefore, the RFID read-write device in this embodiment is arranged in the read-write shield, and the read-write shield is arranged at the exit of the sorting line, and only one turnover box is allowed to enter the shield at a time for reading and writing operations. In this way, the interference of external signals is avoided, and the work of writing to the RFID tags of the turnover boxes can be completed efficiently and accurately.

The above order information includes cigarette type, quantity, sorting date, storage location, box identification code of the turnover box, clear code identification number of the turnover box, sorting line identification, line code, delivery sequence, customer code, delivery vehicle, delivery area , delivery time, delivery address, etc. These specific information can be set and selected according to the needs. When applied to different logistics systems, the specific information contained is different.

The central control server obtains the order information of the sorting system, controls the information identification card reading and writing device to perform read and write operations, records and manages the order information in the information identification card in the turnover box.

The central control server uses the photoelectric sensor and the fixed barcode reader to control the RFID reader, and writes the corresponding order information in the turnover box cigarette business queue information obtained from the sorting system into the turnover box RFID tag to realize the one-to-one correspondence of the turnover box order information write.

In addition, since there are many types of tobacco, one or more sorting lines can be set up, and each sorting line is responsible for sorting a part of tobacco. If the dealer's order contains tobacco on multiple sorting lines, a turnover box will be loaded on each sorting line during sorting, and there will be multiple turnover boxes. As shown in Figure 1, the storage center has two sorting areas with two sorting lines, one of which uses Type A turnover boxes, and the other sorting line uses Type B turnover boxes. If the dealer's If the order includes the tobacco in these two sorting lines, then A and B turnover boxes will be generated. At this time, the central control server can also obtain the order information of each turnover box, and for the same customer, a plurality of weekly packaging boxes whose combined volume does not exceed the volume of the turnover box can generate a combined box order and send it to the handheld terminal. Combined box management The delivery staff will combine the two types of AB turnover boxes according to the prompt information of the handheld PDA system. Empty container recycling after consolidation is confirmed through the empty container recycling management system scanning the RFID recycling of the turnover box.

The handheld terminal, such as a handheld PDA, is used to read the information identification card, and is connected with the central control server to obtain the order information of the turnover box. Through the handheld terminal, you can log in to the central control server to obtain the business data and read/write status information of all turnover boxes, which is convenient for staff management. . The staff moves the off-line turnover boxes to the temporary storage area, and the delivery dispatcher reads the RFID of any turnover box through the RF handheld PDA at the exit of the warehouse, and matches the read RFID information with the system to check whether it is consistent with The distribution scheduling tasks are consistent, reducing errors in the delivery process.

When in use, issue an RFID card to each employee holding the PDA. Hand-held PDA scans the employee's RFID card to automatically log in to the system and manually enters the job number in two ways, assigning the use page and prompting the work task. In this way, the turnover box and order business can be processed through the central control server, and the employees with PDAs can perform relevant processing according to the tasks assigned to them.

In order to ensure the success rate of turnover box RFID writing, the handheld PDA system reads the turnover box RFID that has not been successfully written online, and the associated query order information is forced to write to ensure success. The delivery staff downloads the delivery order information of the day to the handheld PDA through the wireless network. In addition, the delivery personnel use the handheld PDA system to download the packing prompt information, and follow the prompts to combine the two types of AB turnover boxes. In the PDA, the information that can be displayed includes line information, loading sequence, customer information, total turnover box number, and color prompt for the identification number of the turnover box that needs to be combined.

In addition, the delivery dispatcher reads the RFID of any turnover box through the RFID reader at the exit of the warehouse or a handheld PDA, and matches the read RFID information with the system to check whether it is consistent with the delivery scheduling task, reducing the delivery time. Errors in the shipping link. The handheld PDA displays the turnover box information, customer information, turnover box number information, etc. of the line. The dispatcher can determine the number of pallets on the line at the transfer station according to the prompt line information, and the delivery staff will load and deliver the goods according to the box closing process agreed by the system.

The display device is such as an LCD display screen. After the information identification card is written, the central control server controls the display device to display the order information. The turnover box RFID reading and writing device obtains the turnover box information and sorting business data in real time, writes the order information of each turnover box into the turnover box RFID, and displays the written content and information indicating success or failure on the LCD screen. The data is written successfully, and the turnover box continues to enter the follow-up process. The turnover box that has not been successfully written is checked and written twice by the RFID system at the off-line port of the code box. At the same time, the RFID writing content is read to verify whether the RFID of the turnover box is successfully written, and the read RFID content is displayed on the LCD. The large screen prompts the turnover box number information, the total number of turnover boxes, storage location information, and line information switching prompts. The staff moves to the delivery temporary storage area according to the prompts to wait for the next business process. If it fails again, it will be rewritten manually offline through a handheld device.

When the staff confirms that the turnover box and the corresponding order information are correct, it will be loaded and sent. In the tobacco logistics distribution system, a customer identification card is also distributed to each dealer. This card can also be an RFID card, and the customer code of the dealer is stored in the card. The staff's handheld PDA is equipped with a GPS module and a time module, through which the handheld PDA can record and send back the location and time of scanning the user identification card, which is convenient for monitoring the delivery process and better monitoring the tobacco logistics.

The tobacco logistics distribution system of the present invention includes an unpacking device, a sorting system, a turnover box, a packing device, an information identification card reading and writing equipment, a central control server, a handheld terminal and a customer identification card, and is used for tobacco logistics centers to target Tobacco sorting and distribution are realized for customer orders, and tobacco distribution is carried out using turnover boxes equipped with RFID tags, so as to realize the comprehensive perception of the cigarette distribution process. That is, RFID tags are installed on each turnover box, and the cigarette order information of the turnover box is written into the RFID. In addition, the customer identification card is issued to the customer. When the delivery is completed, the RFID tag of the turnover box and the customer identification card are scanned to record the scanning time and place, so as to ensure that the order is delivered at the scheduled time and place, which is well documented. , To realize the monitoring of the time and location of tobacco distribution, and effectively ensure the speed of tobacco logistics distribution. This solution realizes the traceable management of cigarettes in the turnover box by reading and verifying the RFID content of the turnover box at important logistics nodes, and can effectively supervise the distribution of tobacco.

Example 2:

On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiment 1, the tobacco logistics distribution system in this embodiment also includes a warehouse management system and a recovery management system, as shown in Figure 3, specifically including:

The turnover box outbound management system includes an exit passage, and an RFID reading device and a transmission device are arranged on the exit passage, and the RFID reading device obtains the RFID tags of one or more turnover boxes passing through the exit passage, and Send the address code of the RFID tag and the order information to the central control server for outbound record.

The turnover box recovery management system includes an entrance passage, and an RFID reading device and a transmission device are arranged on the entrance passage, and the RFID reading device obtains the RFID tags of one or more turnover boxes passing through the entrance passage, and The address code of the RFID tag and the order information are sent to the central control server for recycling records. Here, the empty turnover box RFID group reading method is used to confirm the number of recycled boxes, the system automatically completes the verification and update of the number of turnover boxes, and reminds the deliveryman of the number of turnover boxes to be recycled on this line.

Generally, the exit channel and the entrance channel are the gantry set at the exit and the entrance, and the gantry is equipped with an RFID reading device. Since the RFID reading device only needs to read the address code of the RFID tag, it can read multiple RFID tags at a time. Tags, through group reading, can be read when the turnover box passes through the gantry. No matter how many turnover boxes are on the belt line, when passing through the RFID channel door, the photoelectric switch is triggered, and the RFID device reads the RFID tag. The TID number is sent back to the central control server, and the data is recorded and compared with the information in the database. The LCD displays relevant information such as the distribution vehicle, the quantity that should be recycled, the quantity that has been recycled, and the quantity that has not been recycled. Compared with the manual counting method in the prior art, the efficiency is greatly improved.

Through the establishment of the turnover box outbound management system and the turnover box recycling management system, the outbound and inbound management of the turnover box can be carried out, which reduces the loss of the turnover box and facilitates search and management.

Example 3:

A tobacco logistics distribution method is provided in this embodiment, which is used in the field of tobacco logistics distribution, as shown in Figure 4, including the following steps:

First, the customer will submit an order, which should include basic information such as the brand, model, quantity, customer code, and delivery address of the tobacco to be ordered.

Tobacco from all manufacturers shipped to the tobacco center will remove the original packaging of the tobacco and send the unpacked tobacco to the sorting system.

After receiving the order, according to the business order, the unpacked tobacco is sorted on the sorting line, and the tobacco contained in the order is sorted out.

Bind the one-dimensional barcode of the turnover box with the address code and plain code identification number of the RFID label. Such as RFID clear code identification number: A-5588 (printed on the surface of the RFID label for easy identification); one-dimensional barcode: 8310000015588, attached or printed on the box body of the turnover box; TID (address code of the RFID label): E20034120141F60000B8308C, It is read by RFID reading equipment or reading and writing equipment, and is used to read and identify RFID tags. Bind these three codes, and you can query the other two codes through any code.

After completing the above configuration, the turnover box is sent into the production line.

The box packing equipment reads the one-dimensional barcode of the turnover box, and loads the tobacco contained in the order sorted out by the sorting system into the turnover box. In this step, the order of the sorting system is matched with the one-dimensional barcode of the turnover box.

After the loading is completed, the central control server obtains the order information of the sorting system, controls the information identification card reading and writing device to write the order information corresponding to the loaded items into the RFID tag, and records the order information of the turnover box.

Wherein, the step of the central control server controlling the RFID tag reading and writing device to write the order information corresponding to the loaded item into the information identification card includes:

S31. Read the address code of the RFID tag of the turnover box;

S32. Obtain the one-dimensional barcode of the turnover box bound to it through the address code;

S33. Obtain the corresponding order information in the sorting system according to the one-dimensional barcode of the box;

S34. Write the order information into the RFID tag.

S35. Read the order information, judge whether the reading is successful, if the reading fails, write the order information again, and perform a second reading verification, and if it still fails, write offline, as shown in the figure 5.

S4: The handheld terminal reads the information identification card of the turnover box to obtain the order information of the turnover box.

In the specific implementation process, if there are multiple sorting systems in the warehouse logistics sorting line, such as two sorting systems, some tobacco is sorted in the first sorting system, and the rest of the tobacco is sorted in the second sorting system. For sorting, if the customer's order contains the tobacco in the two sorting systems, you need to use the two systems for sorting. After the sorting is completed, if the total amount of tobacco can be loaded in the same turnover box , it needs to be binned. The central control server completes the calculation of whether the turnover box needs to be combined. First, it judges whether there are multiple turnover boxes for the same customer. If there are multiple turnover boxes for the same customer, obtain the order information of each turnover box of the customer. , and then, according to the number of items in each turnover box, two or more turnover boxes that can be combined are obtained, and then, the information of the turnover boxes that can be combined is generated to generate a combination order, and sent to the handheld terminal for manual combination . For example: if there are turnover boxes A and B from two sorting lines respectively, both of which are cigarettes in the same order from customer L, the total capacity of the turnover box is 25, and there are currently 10 pieces in the turnover box A, B There are 5 pieces in the turnover box, and the total volume of A turnover box and B turnover box does not exceed the volume of one turnover box, so they can be combined for processing. If it is exceeded, the box cannot be closed. According to the order information in the RFID tag of the turnover box A and the order information in the turnover box B, the central control server can obtain the turnover boxes that can be combined and processed through calculation, and then send the information to the handheld terminal to guide the operators to combine the boxes deal with.

In some other optimized implementation schemes, it is also possible to add an assembly line for box-packing processing. First, the turnover boxes that can be box-packed are sent to the box-packing line for box-packing processing; and the order information after box-packing processing , through the RFID read-write device (the same as the above-mentioned RFID read-write device) to rewrite the information identification card of the turnover box after the box is closed; read the order information, judge whether the reading is successful, if the reading fails, then write again Enter the order information, and perform a secondary read verification. The RFID reading and writing device here can choose to add another set of RFID reading and writing equipment, or it can reuse the RFID reading and writing equipment by combining the binning line and merging it into the previous sorting line. The RFID tag of the box is written, and the order information after the box is written. At this time, the order information after packing will be updated in the central control server. Therefore, this solution can be extended to storage centers with two or more sets of sorting systems, which can automatically realize box closing processing, greatly improve processing efficiency, reduce labor costs, and improve accuracy.

After the above-mentioned processing of the turnover box is completed, the storage space is managed according to the content in the order information, and then the distribution is carried out uniformly.

Each certified dealer in the tobacco logistics center is provided with a customer identification card, which can also be an RFID card, with a customer code set therein. The customer identification card is held by the customer. After the delivery is completed, the delivery personnel scans the customer identification card through the handheld terminal to complete the delivery confirmation, and obtains the place where the scanning action takes place through the GPS positioning module of the handheld terminal, and sends it back to the central control server . In this way, the time and place of delivery can be effectively supervised.

During the delivery, the delivery personnel can also be required to scan the RFID tag and the customer identification card of the turnover box at the same time after delivering the goods to the customer to ensure that the customer receives the right product. Even if the delivery is wrong, there is still a trace to check.

In other embodiments, in the central control server, when the order is generated, the customer identification card is associated with the RFID tag of the turnover box, and when the RFID tag and the customer identification card are scanned at the same time, the information will be returned To the central control server, the central control server will compare the RFID tag of the turnover box with the information of the customer identification card. When the match is successful, a dialog box will pop up on the hand-held terminal of the delivery personnel to confirm the delivery is successful. Otherwise, it will prompt that it does not match. Delivery errors, which can further reduce the risk of delivery personnel making mistakes when delivering goods, and improve the accuracy of delivery.

Example 4:

In this embodiment, the steps of management of the delivery of the turnover box and the management of the recovery of the turnover box are further added.

In the above embodiment, the turnover box is reloaded with cigarettes, and the order information is written in its RFID tag, and then according to the prompt in the order information, the turnover box is sent to a predetermined storage location for storage. The storage location is generated by the central control server according to the generated order information, combined with the delivery time and route, and the space of the storage center. According to the reminder of the order information in the RFID tag of the turnover box, the operator can obtain it through PDA handheld terminal query or large-screen display, and send the turnover box that has been sorted and successfully read and written by RFID into a specific storage position.

When delivery is required, the outbound management of the turnover boxes is carried out. A turnover box outbound management system is installed at the exit of the storage center, and the RFID reading device installed in the exit channel is used to obtain the RFID of one or more turnover boxes passing through the exit channel. tag, and send the address code and order information of the RFID tag to the central control server for outbound record.

After the distribution is completed, the operator will return the recovered turnover boxes to the storage center. A turnover box recycling management system is installed at the entrance of the storage center, and one or more turnover boxes passing through the entrance passage can be obtained through the RFID reading device installed in the entrance passage. RFID tag of the box, and send the address code and order information of the RFID tag to the central control server for recycling records, and send the address code and order information of the RFID tag to the central control server for recycling records

In the process of outbound and inbound, the central control server receives the outbound record information returned by the turnover box outbound management system and the recovery record information returned by the turnover box recycling management system, and compares them to obtain the Some or all of Quantity, Recycled Quantity, Unrecovered Quantity.

In this way, the access information and delivery information of all turnover boxes can be queried in the central control server to effectively manage the turnover boxes, and all processes can be tracked and queried, which facilitates the loss and search of turnover boxes.
