Detailed Description
Exemplary embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which various details of the embodiments of the present invention are included to facilitate understanding, and are to be considered merely exemplary. Accordingly, those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that various changes and modifications of the embodiments described herein can be made without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention. Also, descriptions of well-known functions and constructions are omitted in the following description for clarity and conciseness.
In order picking, a plurality of orders need to be summarized in a collection list for picking. Wherein, the standard of the summary collection list can be divided according to the arrival address of goods. Specifically, when the summary aggregate sheet standard is set to be for Beijing, orders destined for Beijing may be summarized in one aggregate sheet. However, since the number of cargoes in one collection sheet may be large, the collection sheet may be divided into a plurality of picking task sheets, and picking may be performed in units of the picking task sheets, so that picking efficiency and accuracy may be improved.
Specifically, the step of generating the order picking task sheet is as follows:
generating an aggregate list according to the order information;
matching the collection list with a storage area;
And splitting the collection list to generate a picking task list.
In actual production, there may be a case where a plurality of the collection sheets are picked at the same time, for example, collection sheets sent to beijing and Shanghai may be picked, shipped, and the like at the same time. Therefore, in the existing picking process, the picking method is adopted to enable the storage area to pick only one collection sheet, and the next collection sheet can be picked only when the collection sheet is required to finish picking and remove the cargos in the storage area. The technical means of assisting order delivery by the storage equipment control system solves the technical defects that in the prior art, a plurality of collection lists can only be picked in a serial mode and the picking efficiency is low, and the technical effects of improving the picking efficiency and the accuracy and reducing the area waste of a storage area are achieved by adopting a plurality of collection lists to pick in a parallel mode.
Specifically, fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of main flow of a method for assisting in order delivery by a warehouse facility control system according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1, including:
Step S101, receiving a message that the converging device and a picking task sheet in a collection sheet are bound, and controlling the state of the converging device to be a first state;
Step S102, when receiving the order picking completion message of the order picking task list, judging whether the converging equipment corresponding to the order picking task list with the completed order picking is positioned in a storage area designated by the order picking task list, and if so, controlling the state of the converging equipment to be a second state;
Step S103, when receiving a message that all the order picking task sheets corresponding to the collection sheet finish order picking, judging whether all the merging devices in all the order picking task sheets corresponding to the collection sheet are located in a storage area designated by the order picking task sheet, and if so, controlling the state of all the merging devices in all the order picking task sheets corresponding to the collection sheet to be a third state;
And step S104, after receiving the aggregate list rechecking shipping information, releasing the binding relation between the converging equipment and the corresponding picking task list.
The embodiment is mainly suitable for picking large articles, and because the large articles are wrapped by the belt, a rechecking and packaging process is not needed, and only the storage area is rechecked. The scheme disclosed by the application is also applicable to small and medium goods. The storage area may include a dock, other areas where storage pickups can occur, etc.
Confluence refers to in the field of logistics transport: and transferring the goods to be picked in the collection list from the original storage position to the target storage area, and after the goods to be picked in the collection list are combined, further checking delivery can be facilitated.
The converging device is arranged on the goods to be picked and used for displaying the position of the goods to be picked. Specifically, the converging device can display the state of the goods to be picked through different states. For example, when the goods corresponding to the converging device do not have a designated position, the converging device may set the state to an alert state, so as to avoid missing the goods not at the designated position when the goods are shipped.
Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of the main flow of a method for shipping an auxiliary (WMS) order by a warehouse management system according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, comprising:
Corresponding to the step of the confluence facility assisting the order delivery, the warehouse management system may include the steps of, when assisting (WMS) the order delivery:
step S201, receiving information of binding completion of the converging equipment and the order picking task list in the collection list; wherein the converging device is arranged on the goods to be picked;
step S202, confirming that the picking task list in the collection list finishes picking;
Step S203, judging whether all the objects to be picked in the collection list are located in a storage area corresponding to the picking task list according to the converging equipment; if yes, the goods in the collection list can be checked and shipped.
In accordance with another aspect of an embodiment of the present application, there is provided a merge device for assisting in order shipment. Specifically, the method comprises the following steps:
the radio frequency tag is used for receiving information of the warehouse control system about the collection list;
The display screen is used for displaying information received by the radio frequency tag;
the indication component is used for displaying the state of the converging device, and optionally, different lights or flashing degrees are adopted to display the state of the converging device.
Wherein, the display screen and the indication component can be integrated into one piece. The indication part mostly adopts an LED lamp to display the state of the converging equipment, and other parts which can be used for display can also be adopted.
Optionally, the first state, the second state, and the third state are represented by at least one color and/or a combination of blinking states.
Optionally, receiving a message that the merging device completes binding with the order picking task sheet in the collection sheet, and setting the state of the merging device to be a first state, including:
Determining a storage area corresponding to a pick-up task list in a message of binding completion of the merging equipment and the pick-up task list in the collection list;
Displaying a storage area identification code corresponding to the picking task list on a display screen of the converging equipment;
And setting the indication component of the corresponding converging equipment of the goods to be picked into a first state.
When the state of the converging device is in the first state, it can be understood that: the goods to be picked corresponding to the converging device are stored in the storage position for storing the goods to be picked in an original mode, and the goods to be picked are ready to be picked, and a subsequent picking step can be carried out. In an alternative implementation of the present application, the joining device may be in the first state by using a red color with an alarm effect.
When the state of the converging device is in the second state, it can be understood that: the goods to be picked are already carried into the preset storage area of the corresponding collection list of the goods, but the goods picking equipment cannot check and deliver the goods because other goods to be picked in the collection list are possibly not in the storage area. In an alternative embodiment of the application, the junction device may be adapted to have an orange color to indicate that it is in the second state.
When the state of the converging device is in the third state, it can be understood that: all pickles in the aggregate form are already carried to the storage area of the aggregate form, and a subsequent rechecking and delivery process can be performed. In an alternative embodiment of the present application, it may be used to indicate that the joining device is in the third state with a green color.
By utilizing the colors of the indication components on the converging equipment to display different states, the technical defects that in the prior art, when determining whether the to-be-picked objects exist in the preset storage area, the to-be-picked objects need to be checked one by one and the cost of the spent time is high are avoided, and the technical effects of displaying the positions and the states of the to-be-picked objects and improving the accuracy of the to-be-picked objects can be achieved.
Optionally, before the state of the article to be picked is set to the first state according to the message that the joining device completes binding with the order picking task sheet in the collection sheet, the method includes:
receiving labels of converging equipment scanned by auxiliary goods picking equipment (the prior art adopts a handheld PDA in many cases);
binding the label of the converging device with the order picking task list in the collection list.
Through scanning supplementary goods equipment of choosing, with the confluence equipment setting on waiting to choose the goods for confluence equipment binds with the order of choosing the goods, and then conveniently in the confluence equipment is last to show the information of order of choosing the goods.
Optionally, after determining that the existing merging device in the task sheet collection sheet does not enter the storage area designated by the order picking task sheet, the method includes:
transmitting a message for transferring the to-be-picked items into the storage area;
And/or synchronizing the position coordinates of the converging device to a warehouse management system for adjusting the position coordinates of the electronic fence dividing the storage area until the area of the storage area is enough to accommodate the goods to be picked.
Optionally, receiving a message that all the pick-up task sheets corresponding to the collection sheet complete pick-up, and a message that all the merging devices in the pick-up task sheet enter a storage area designated by the pick-up task sheet, and before setting the state of the to-be-picked-up item to the third state, further includes:
judging whether all the converging devices in the task list set list enter a storage area appointed by the order picking task list;
If not, the state of all the confluence devices in the collection list is set to be an alarm state.
When the objects to be picked are not stored in the storage area, a message needs to be sent to the converging equipment or a storage control system sends a message to the converging equipment, and then the state of the converging equipment is set, so that the pickers or the pickers know that the objects to be picked are not in the storage area.
However, there may be insufficient space in the area for storing the goods to add other goods to be picked, so that a technical means of adjusting the position coordinates of the electronic fence can be adopted to enlarge the area of the storage area surrounded by the electronic fence, thereby achieving the technical effect of accommodating all goods to be picked in the collection sheet.
The electronic fence for assisting order delivery is used for dynamically setting a storage area of the goods to be picked. Optionally, the electronic fence includes: a radio frequency tag, a mobile component;
the radio frequency tag is used for receiving information of the warehouse management system; the radio frequency tag includes components for performing radio frequency operations, such as a radio frequency antenna.
The moving component is used for moving the position of the electronic fence according to the information of the warehouse management system received by the radio frequency tag.
In the prior art, the electronic fence is positioned by adopting GPS (Global positioning System ), GSM (Global System for Mobile communications, global System for Mobile Communications) and other systems, but the accuracy of the positioning system adopted in the prior art is lower, so that the accuracy of positioning can be improved to a great extent by adopting the RF technology. Through the technical means of RF radio frequency control electronic fence for the cost of location, control fence is lower, and life is longer.
Because the accuracy of the positioning of the electronic fence in the prior art is low, when all the objects to be picked cannot be placed in the storage area, the objects to be picked may be stored in other storage areas. Since the pickles stored in other storage areas are different from the storage locations of other pickles in the collection sheet, missed shipping situations can occur to a great extent during shipment.
By the arrangement of the electronic fence, the storage area for the post-picking confluence is divided into a plurality of small storage areas. The storage areas can be marked by adopting coordinates (x, y), so that the occupied area and the specific position of each storage area can be conveniently determined. And numbering each storage area separated by the fence, sending the numbers to the converging equipment through the binding process of the picking task list and the converging equipment, and displaying the numbers of the corresponding storage areas on the converging equipment.
The technical defects of inconvenient confluence and rechecking delivery in the prior art when the area of the preset storage area is insufficient for placing all goods to be picked are avoided by the technical means of controlling the electronic fence, and the technical effect of flexibly setting the coordinates of the storage area according to the area required by goods to be picked in the collection list is further achieved.
