Three-dimensional goods shelves are arranged in the intelligent warehouse, and criss-cross tracks are respectively arranged on the goods shelves for the four-way shuttle to load goods to pass through so as to place the goods into a specified bin position.
The four-way shuttle is powered by a battery, so that corresponding charging piles are required to be arranged on the goods shelf to supplement the electric energy of the four-way shuttle. Under the prior art, it matches with the quadriversal shuttle one by one to set up the electric pile of filling usually. When the electric quantity of each shuttle vehicle is insufficient, the shuttle vehicles need to return to the corresponding charging piles respectively to realize charging. This charging method may result in a long return distance of the shuttle car running to a remote location, and may not reserve enough electric quantity for returning to charge. Moreover, the charging time between the shuttle cars is usually affected by the working strength of the shuttle cars, and all parts of the charging cars are the same, so that the number of the charging piles actually providing the charging service in unit time is not large, a large number of the charging piles are idle, and valuable warehouse space in a warehouse is wasted.
To above-mentioned problem, this application erects the communication unit in warehouse environment to through the quadriversal shuttle and fill the intelligent interaction between the electric pile and realize the effective dispatch to charging resource, thereby with the same mode of filling electric pile of many cars sharing, realize more nimble, efficient charging effect.

the medium electric quantity mode can be matched with a state that the electric quantity of the four-way shuttle vehicle is not less than 30%, and in the state, the four-way shuttle vehicle can correspondingly execute a charging task when the idle time is long enough or continuously execute the current task when the idle time is short enough according to the idle time;
the low-power mode can be matched with a state that the power of the four-way shuttle vehicle is less than 30%, and in the state, the four-way shuttle vehicle suspends receiving a new task and directly executes a charging task after executing the current task;

The step of triggering the state closest to the four-way shuttle to be the state that the avoidable charging pile exits from the state of charging other equipment is usually realized by a server connected with the interactive communication unit issuing a charging ending instruction to the four-way shuttle currently in butt joint charging of the charging pile. After the four-way shuttle car receives the instruction of finishing charging, the charging task is finished, the locking of the charging pile is released, and the charging pile is moved out, so that other four-way vehicles needing to be charged can lock the charging pile to be charged.
