With the development of internet technology, the size of users who shop online is also expanding, and accordingly, the problem of distribution and return of goods purchased online is considered, and the problem of sending the goods actively by the users is also considered.
The conventional way of delivering is that the delivery personnel delivers the goods to the receiving place left by the receiver, or the delivery personnel puts the goods into a cabinet (for example, a delivery cabinet) for temporarily storing the goods and informs the receiver to take the goods in the cabinet. When depositing articles through the express cabinet, the articles of a addressee can only be deposited in one box of the express cabinet, and the articles of different addressees need to be deposited in different boxes, so that the situation that one small-volume article can occupy one box can possibly occur. Because the number of cases is limited, the use of conventional article storage methods can result in low case utilization.
In view of the above problems in the related art, no effective solution has been proposed.

and S108, controlling the target box body to be unlocked so that the first target object is allowed to be placed into the target carrier in the target box body.
The cabinet (e.g., a processing device inside the cabinet) may perform the above operations. The cabinet may be referred to as a distribution station, which may be used as a distribution cabinet or an express delivery cabinet or as a storage cabinet for storing articles that users need to take, and may be docked with an intelligent distribution device, for example, an indoor unmanned vehicle (e.g., a distribution robot for indoor distribution, a pickup robot for indoor pickup, or a robot with both functions), an outdoor unmanned vehicle (e.g., a distribution robot for outdoor distribution), or other types of unmanned vehicles may be docked, wherein when the cabinet is docked with the distribution robot, a scene range of service may be buildings, including office buildings, residential buildings, or the like, that is, the destination address may be an address within the building.
For an example of the structure of the cabinet, refer to fig. 2, it should be noted that the structure of the cabinet may also be flexibly configured, for example, the size of each box in the cabinet may be set to be boxes with different sizes. It should be noted that the type of cassette may be various, for example, a cube with an opening on the inside (i.e., the side opposite the door), or a cassette with a clamping device for clamping the carrier (in this case, the cassette may be a non-cube, but a storage area with an open space).
In the above embodiment, the correspondence between the delivery addresses and the boxes may be flexibly adjusted, for example, when it is detected that the delivery addresses of the corresponding boxes are not allocated in advance, the correspondence may be configured in real time, that is, the boxes are allocated to the delivery addresses, that is, one or more boxes may be selected from currently idle boxes to correspond to the delivery addresses.
The destination address corresponding to the first target item may include a destination delivery address to which the first target item is to be delivered (for a process of delivering the item) or a delivery address of the first target item (for a process of receiving the item). The above-mentioned articles can be various types, for example, the articles can be online purchased express mails, catering ordered on a take-out platform, fruits ordered on a fruit ordering platform, and the like.
In the embodiment, the corresponding relation between the address and the box body is preset, and when the box body needs to be opened, the specific box body needing to be opened is determined according to the target address corresponding to the article, so that a plurality of articles corresponding to the same address and different recipients can be stored in the same box body, the problem of low box body utilization rate in the related technology can be solved, and the effect of improving the box body utilization rate is achieved.

In an optional embodiment, selecting the target box from the alternative boxes according to a predetermined selection condition includes at least one of: determining the distribution priority of the alternative box body, and determining the box body with the distribution priority matched with the pre-acquired priority of the first target object in the alternative box body as the target box body; determining a serial number which is configured for the alternative boxes in advance, and determining the box with the minimum serial number in the alternative boxes as the target box; determining the residual article carrying capacity of the alternative box body, and determining the box body with the minimum residual article carrying capacity in the alternative box body as the target box body; and determining the remaining article bearing volume of the alternative box body, and determining the box body with the minimum remaining article bearing volume in the alternative box body as the target box body. In the above embodiment, the distribution priorities of the boxes may be configured in advance, and two or more distribution priorities may be set for the boxes corresponding to the same distribution address, and when the items are distributed, the box having the priority corresponding to the priority of the item to be distributed may be selected preferentially, for example, when the priority of the item is high, the box having the high priority may be selected to carry the item. In addition, it should be noted that the above-mentioned several ways of determining the target box are only examples, and in practical applications, other selection conditions may also be adopted to select the target box, for example, the box with the largest number in the candidate boxes is determined as the target box. The selection conditions can be flexibly adjusted.
In an optional embodiment, before determining a target box corresponding to the target delivery address in the cabinet according to a pre-configured correspondence relationship between the delivery address and the box, the method further includes at least one of: acquiring weight information of the first target object reported after a weighing device arranged on the cabinet body weighs the first target object; and acquiring the volume information of the first target object reported by volume detection equipment arranged on the cabinet after the volume detection is carried out on the first target object.
