其次,控制裝置100之取得部110將移動機800作為發送對象,向資料通訊電路104輸出請求發送以經度、緯度、及高度表示移動機800之位置之移動機位置資訊之發送請求。若控制裝置100之資料通訊電路104於向移動機800發送發送請求之後接收到移動機位置資訊,則取得部110自資料通訊電路104取得移動機800之移動機位置資訊。同樣,取得部110取得移動機900之移動機位置資訊(步驟S24)。Next, the acquisition unit 110 of the control device 100 takes the mobile device 800 as the transmission target and outputs a transmission request to the data communication circuit 104 to transmit the mobile device position information indicating the position of the mobile device 800 in terms of longitude, latitude, and altitude. If the data communication circuit 104 of the control device 100 receives the mobile machine location information after sending the transmission request to the mobile machine 800, the acquisition unit 110 obtains the mobile machine position information of the mobile machine 800 from the data communication circuit 104. Similarly, the acquisition unit 110 acquires the mobile device location information of the mobile device 900 (step S24).

之後,控制裝置100之取得部110於取得資訊記憶部190預先記憶之模式資訊後(步驟S25),結束資訊取得處理之執行。After that, the acquisition unit 110 of the control device 100 ends the execution of the information acquisition process after acquiring the mode information stored in advance by the information storage unit 190 (step S25).

於本實施例中,模式資訊係表示自移動機800或900之位置至搬運之開始位置,移動機800或900儲存商品並移動時之行為之動作模式之資訊。於本實施例中,資訊記憶部190預先記憶之模式資訊表示將預設之基準之速度作為移動時之移動機800或900之移動速度而對移動機800或900設定之基準模式。於本實施例中,設定之移動機800或900之移動速度為移動機800或900之平均速度,但不限定於此,可為移動機800或900之最高速度或限制速度。In this embodiment, the mode information is information indicating the action mode of the behavior of the moving machine 800 or 900 when the product is stored and moved from the position of the moving machine 800 or 900 to the starting position of transportation. In this embodiment, the mode information stored in advance by the information storage unit 190 represents the base mode set for the mobile machine 800 or 900 using the preset base speed as the moving speed of the mobile machine 800 or 900 when moving. In this embodiment, the set moving speed of the mobile machine 800 or 900 is the average speed of the mobile machine 800 or 900, but it is not limited thereto and may be the maximum speed or the limited speed of the mobile machine 800 or 900.

於在圖3之步驟S03中執行完資訊取得處理之後,控制裝置100之產生部120以識別移動機800之編號「1」將識別移動機800或900之變量m初始化(步驟S04)。其次,產生部120判別為變量m之值「1」為搬運系統1具備之移動機之數量「2」以下(步驟S05;是)。After executing the information acquisition process in step S03 of FIG. 3 , the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 initializes the variable m identifying the mobile machine 800 or 900 with the number "1" that identifies the mobile machine 800 (step S04 ). Next, the generation unit 120 determines that the value "1" of the variable m is "2" or less the number of moving machines included in the transportation system 1 (step S05; Yes).

之後,控制裝置100之產生部120探索複數個自以變量m識別之移動機800之位置到達搬運之開始位置之路徑,且自探索到之複數個路徑選擇N個(其中,N為自然數)在移動機800以基準之速度移動時需要準備時間以上、且合計時間以下之移動時間之路徑,作為移動機800之移動路徑(步驟S06)。After that, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 searches for a plurality of paths from the position of the mobile machine 800 identified by the variable m to the starting position of transportation, and selects N from the plurality of paths searched (where N is a natural number). When the mobile machine 800 moves at the standard speed, a path requiring a movement time of more than the preparation time and less than the total time is regarded as the movement path of the mobile machine 800 (step S06).

因此,控制裝置100之取得部110自資訊記憶部190預先記憶之部分路徑表讀出複數個記錄。於部分路徑表之複數個記錄中例如分別保存有與道路及人行道等可供移動機800及900移動之部分路徑相關之資訊。與部分路徑相關之資訊係將作為部分路徑之邊緣之起點節點之經度、緯度、及高度、與該邊緣之終點節點之經度、緯度、及高度、及表示該邊緣之距離之資訊建立對應關係之資訊。Therefore, the acquisition unit 110 of the control device 100 reads a plurality of records from the partial path table stored in advance by the information storage unit 190 . A plurality of records in the partial route table, for example, respectively store information related to partial routes such as roads and sidewalks that the mobile machines 800 and 900 can move. The information related to the partial path establishes a corresponding relationship between the longitude, latitude, and altitude of the starting node as the edge of the partial path, the longitude, latitude, and altitude of the end node of the edge, and information indicating the distance of the edge. information.

其次,控制裝置100之產生部120使用保存於讀出之部分路徑表之各記錄之邊緣之距離、該邊緣之起點節點及終點節點之經度、緯度、及高度、表示移動機800之位置之經度、緯度、及高度、及表示搬運之開始位置之經度、緯度、及高度,例如進行包含戴克斯特拉法之周知之路徑探索演算法。藉此,產生部120藉由將部分路徑組合,而探索複數個自移動機800之位置到達開始位置之整體路徑。Next, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 uses the distance of the edge of each record stored in the read partial route table, the longitude, latitude, and altitude of the start node and end node of the edge, and the longitude indicating the position of the mobile machine 800 , latitude, and altitude, and the longitude, latitude, and altitude indicating the starting position of the transfer, for example, a well-known path search algorithm including the Dijkstra method is performed. Thereby, the generating unit 120 explores a plurality of overall paths from the position of the mobile machine 800 to the starting position by combining partial paths.

其次,控制裝置100之產生部120針對探索出之複數個整體路徑算出總距離,基於算出之距離與基準之速度,算出移動機800以基準模式移動所需之移動時間。Next, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 calculates the total distance for the plurality of discovered entire paths, and based on the calculated distance and the reference speed, calculates the movement time required for the mobile machine 800 to move in the reference mode.

其次,控制裝置100之產生部120於探索出之複數個整體路徑之內選擇N個算出之移動時間為準備時間以上、且為合計時間以下之整體路徑,作為移動路徑。於本實施例中,產生部120按照移動時間由短至長之順序選擇N個整體路徑,但不限定於此。產生部120例如可基於移動時間由短至長之順序以外之預設之規則,或基於軟體隨機數,選擇N個整體路徑。Next, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 selects N overall paths whose calculated movement time is greater than the preparation time and less than the total time among the plurality of searched overall paths as movement paths. In this embodiment, the generating unit 120 selects N overall paths in order of moving time from short to long, but is not limited to this. The generating unit 120 may, for example, select N overall paths based on a preset rule other than the order of moving time from shortest to longest, or based on software random numbers.

之後,控制裝置100之產生部120例如基於包含選擇之順序之預設之規則或軟體隨機數,對N個移動路徑賦予第1至第N個編號。其次,產生部120產生包含表示第1個移動路徑之資訊之移動機800之移動控制資訊之第1個候選。同樣,產生部120產生移動機800之移動控制資訊之第2個至第N個候選(步驟S07)。於本實施例中,表示移動路徑之資訊包含:以經度、緯度、及高度表示該移動路徑中所含之節點第位置之資訊、及表示該節點之到達順序之資訊。Afterwards, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 assigns the 1st to Nth numbers to the N movement paths based on, for example, a preset rule or a software random number including the order of selection. Next, the generating unit 120 generates the first candidate of the movement control information of the mobile machine 800 including the information indicating the first movement path. Similarly, the generation unit 120 generates the 2nd to Nth candidates of the movement control information of the mobile device 800 (step S07). In this embodiment, the information representing the moving path includes: information representing the position of the nodes included in the moving path in terms of longitude, latitude, and altitude, and information representing the arrival order of the nodes.

控制裝置100之產生部120以識別第1個候選之編號「1」將識別移動控制資訊之候選之變量n初始化(步驟S08)。其次,產生部120判別為變量n之值「1」為候選之數量「N」以下時(步驟S09;是),而執行如圖7所示之評估值算出處理,其算出表示以變量n識別之候選作為移動控制資訊為何種程度適切之評估值(步驟S10)。The generation unit 120 of the control device 100 initializes the variable n that identifies the candidate of the movement control information with the number "1" that identifies the first candidate (step S08). Next, when the generation unit 120 determines that the value "1" of the variable n is less than or equal to the number of candidates "N" (step S09; Yes), the evaluation value calculation process shown in FIG. 7 is executed, and the calculation indicates that the variable n is used to identify the value. The candidate is used as an evaluation value to determine how appropriate the movement control information is (step S10).

於開始執行圖7之評估值算出處理時,控制裝置100之取得部110取得資訊記憶部190預先記憶之換算係數αt、αl、及αh(步驟S31)。When the evaluation value calculation process of FIG. 7 is started, the acquisition unit 110 of the control device 100 acquires the conversion coefficients αt, αl, and αh stored in advance by the information storage unit 190 (step S31).

換算係數αt係用於將移動機800變更行進方向之次數換算為推定為在該次數內為了變更行進方向而移動機800消耗之能量量的係數。又,換算係數αl係用於將移動機800移動之距離換算為推定為移動機800為了移動該距離而消耗之能量量之係數。進而,換算係數αh係用於將移動機800之高度之變化量換算為推定為為了使移動機800之高度變化該量而由移動機800消耗之能量量之係數。The conversion coefficient αt is a coefficient for converting the number of times the mobile machine 800 changes the traveling direction into the energy amount estimated to be consumed by the mobile machine 800 in order to change the traveling direction within the number of times. In addition, the conversion coefficient α1 is a coefficient for converting the distance moved by the mobile machine 800 into the energy amount estimated to be consumed by the mobile machine 800 in order to move the distance. Furthermore, the conversion coefficient αh is a coefficient for converting the amount of change in the height of the mobile machine 800 into the amount of energy estimated to be consumed by the mobile machine 800 in order to change the height of the mobile machine 800 by the amount.

其次,控制裝置100之產生部120以值「0」將表示移動機800之推定消耗能量量之變量CE初始化(步驟S32)。由變量CE表示之移動機800之推定消耗能量量係推定為移動機800為了於以變量n識別之候選中所含之移動路徑移動而由移動機800消耗之能量量。Next, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 initializes the variable CE indicating the estimated energy consumption of the mobile machine 800 to a value of "0" (step S32). The estimated energy consumption amount of the mobile machine 800 represented by the variable CE is estimated to be the energy amount consumed by the mobile machine 800 in order to move on the movement path included in the candidate identified by the variable n.

之後,控制裝置100之產生部120對移動路徑中所含之複數個節點按照通過循序由早至晚之順序賦予第1至第ND個編號(其中,ND為自然數)。之後,產生部120以識別第1個節點之編號「1」將識別節點之變量nd初始化(步驟S33)。After that, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 assigns the 1st to ND-th numbers (where ND is a natural number) to the plurality of nodes included in the movement path in order from early to late in passing order. After that, the generation unit 120 initializes the variable nd that identifies the node with the number "1" that identifies the first node (step S33).

其次,控制裝置100之產生部120判別為變量nd之值「1」小於節點之數量「ND」(步驟S34;是)。之後,產生部120因變量nd之值為「1」(步驟S35;是),而判別為以變量nd識別之節點為最初之節點。因此,產生部120判別為僅存在以該節點為起點之邊緣(以下稱為較該節點後面之邊緣),不存在將該節點設為終點之邊緣(以下稱為較該節點前面之邊緣)。產生部120因不存在較該節點前面之邊緣,而判別為移動機800無須為了自較該節點前面之邊緣朝較該節點後面之邊緣移動,而於該節點處變更行進方向。Next, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines that the value "1" of the variable nd is smaller than the number of nodes "ND" (step S34; Yes). After that, the generation unit 120 determines that the node identified by the variable nd is the first node because the value of the variable nd is "1" (step S35; Yes). Therefore, the generation unit 120 determines that there is only an edge starting from the node (hereinafter referred to as an edge behind the node) and there is no edge having the node as an end point (hereinafter referred to as an edge before the node). Since there is no edge in front of the node, the generation unit 120 determines that the mobile machine 800 does not need to change the traveling direction at the node in order to move from the edge in front of the node to the edge behind the node.

其次,控制裝置100之取得部110取得將該節點設為起點節點、將該節點之後一個節點設為終點節點之較該節點後面之邊緣之距離L(步驟S38)。因此,取得部110自未圖示之部分路徑表取得起點節點之經度、緯度、及高度、與終點節點之經度、緯度、及高度建立對應關係之距離L。於本實施例中,較以變量nd識別之節點後面1個之節點意指以變量nd+1識別之節點。Next, the acquisition unit 110 of the control device 100 acquires the distance L from the edge behind the node, where the node is the starting point node and the node after the node is the end node (step S38). Therefore, the obtaining unit 110 obtains the longitude, latitude, and altitude of the starting point node and the distance L that establishes the corresponding relationship with the longitude, latitude, and altitude of the ending node from the partial route table (not shown). In this embodiment, the node one behind the node identified by the variable nd means the node identified by the variable nd+1.

之後,控制裝置100之產生部120藉由將取得之邊緣之距離L乘以在步驟S31中讀出之換算係數αl,而推定為移動機800為了移動該距離L而由移動機800消耗之能量量為αl×L。其次,產生部120將推定出之能量量αl×L與表示移動機800之推定消耗能量量之變量CE相加(步驟S39)。Thereafter, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 estimates the energy consumed by the mobile machine 800 in order to move the distance L by multiplying the obtained distance L of the edge by the conversion coefficient αl read in step S31 The quantity is αl×L. Next, the generation unit 120 adds the estimated energy amount α1×L to the variable CE indicating the estimated energy consumption of the mobile machine 800 (step S39).

其次,控制裝置100之產生部120基於起點節點之高度是否低於終點節點之高度,判別邊緣是否為上坡(步驟S40)。此時,產生部120於因起點節點之高度低於終點節點之高度,而判別為該邊緣為上坡時(步驟S40;是),算出起點節點之高度與終點節點之高度之高度差H(步驟S41)。其次,產生部120藉由將算出之高度差H乘以在步驟S31中讀出之換算係數αh,而推定為為了使移動機800之高度變化該高度差H而由移動機800消耗之能量量為αh×H。其次,產生部120將推定出之能量量αh×H與變量CE相加(步驟S42)。Next, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines whether the edge is uphill based on whether the height of the starting point node is lower than the height of the ending node (step S40). At this time, when the generating unit 120 determines that the edge is uphill because the height of the starting node is lower than the height of the ending node (step S40; Yes), the generating unit 120 calculates the height difference H ( Step S41). Next, the generation unit 120 multiplies the calculated height difference H by the conversion coefficient αh read in step S31 to estimate the amount of energy consumed by the mobile machine 800 in order to change the height of the mobile machine 800 by the height difference H. is αh×H. Next, the generation unit 120 adds the estimated energy amount αh×H to the variable CE (step S42).

於步驟S40中,控制裝置100之產生部120於因起點節點之高度為終點節點之高度以上,而判別為該邊緣非為上坡時(步驟S40;否),或於執行完步驟S42之後,將變量nd之值增加值「1」而更新為值「2」(步驟S43),而後再次執行步驟S34之處理。In step S40, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines that the edge is not uphill because the height of the starting node is higher than the height of the end node (step S40; No), or after executing step S42, The value of the variable nd is incremented by "1" and updated to the value "2" (step S43), and then the process of step S34 is executed again.

此時控制裝置100之產生部120判別為變量nd之值「2」小於節點之數量「ND」(步驟S34;是)。其次,產生部120因變量nd之值為「2」而非「1」(步驟S35;否),而判別為以變量nd識別之節點非為最初之節點。因此,產生部120判別為移動機800為了自較該節點前面之邊緣朝較該節點後面之邊緣移動,而必須於該節點處變更行進方向。At this time, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines that the value "2" of the variable nd is smaller than the number of nodes "ND" (step S34; Yes). Next, the generation unit 120 determines that the node identified by the variable nd is not the first node because the value of the variable nd is "2" instead of "1" (step S35; No). Therefore, the generation unit 120 determines that the mobile machine 800 must change its traveling direction at the node in order to move from the edge in front of the node to the edge behind the node.

其次,控制裝置100之產生部120使用該等3個節點之經度、緯度、及高度,算出自該節點之前1個節點向以變量nd識別之節點之向量、及自以變量nd識別之節點向從該節點之後1個節點之向量。於本實施例中,較以變量nd識別之節點前面1個之節點意指以變量nd-1識別之節點。之後,產生部120基於算出之2個向量,算出為了自較以變量nd識別之節點前面之邊緣朝較該節點後面之邊緣移動而動機800使行進方向變更之角度。Next, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 uses the longitude, latitude, and altitude of the three nodes to calculate the vector from the node before the node to the node identified by the variable nd, and the direction from the node identified by the variable nd. The vector of one node after this node. In this embodiment, the node one before the node identified by the variable nd means the node identified by the variable nd-1. Then, based on the calculated two vectors, the generation unit 120 calculates the angle at which the motor 800 changes the traveling direction in order to move from the edge in front of the node identified by the variable nd to the edge behind the node.

之後,控制裝置100之產生部120於算出之角度較由預先記憶於資訊記憶部190之變量表示之設定角度為小時,判別為不變更行進方向(步驟S36;否)。其次,產生部120於執行完步驟S38至S43之處理之後,自步驟S34起重複上述處理。After that, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines that the traveling direction is not changed when the calculated angle is smaller than the set angle represented by the variable stored in the information storage unit 190 in advance (step S36; No). Next, after completing the processing of steps S38 to S43, the generation unit 120 repeats the above-mentioned processing from step S34.

針對於此,控制裝置100之產生部120於算出之角度為設定角度以上時,判別為變更行進方向(步驟S36;是)。其次,產生部120藉由將行進方向之變更次數「1」乘以在步驟S31中讀出之換算係數αt,而推定為移動機800為了將該行進方向變更「1」次而由移動機800消耗之能量量為αt。其次,產生部120於將推定出之能量量αt與變量CE相加之後(步驟S37),執行步驟S38至S43之處理,而後自步驟S34起重複上述處理。In response to this, when the calculated angle is greater than or equal to the set angle, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines that the traveling direction is changed (step S36; Yes). Next, the generation unit 120 multiplies the number of changes in the traveling direction "1" by the conversion coefficient αt read in step S31, and infers that the mobile machine 800 changed the traveling direction "1" times by the mobile machine 800. The amount of energy consumed is αt. Next, after adding the estimated energy amount αt to the variable CE (step S37), the generation unit 120 performs the processing of steps S38 to S43, and then repeats the above-mentioned processing from step S34.

於步驟S34中,控制裝置100之產生部120於判別為變量nd之值為節點之數量「ND」以上時(步驟S34;否),基於表示移動機800之推定消耗能量量之變量CE之值,決定以變量n識別之候選之評估值(步驟S44)。於本實施例中,產生部120例如藉由將變量CE之倒數決定為評估值,而推定為由移動機800消耗之能量量越少,將評估值決定為越高之值,但評估值之決定方法不限定於此。之後,產生部120結束評估值算出處理之執行。In step S34, when the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines that the value of the variable nd is equal to or greater than the number of nodes "ND" (step S34; No), the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 generates the value of the variable CE based on the estimated energy consumption of the mobile device 800. , determine the evaluation value of the candidate identified by variable n (step S44). In this embodiment, the generation unit 120 determines the evaluation value by, for example, determining the reciprocal of the variable CE, and infers that the smaller the amount of energy consumed by the mobile machine 800, the higher the evaluation value. However, the evaluation value is The determination method is not limited to this. After that, the generation unit 120 ends execution of the evaluation value calculation process.

於在圖3之步驟S10中執行完評估值算出處理之後,控制裝置100之產生部120於將識別移動控制資訊之候選之變量n之值增加值「1」之後(步驟S11),自步驟S09起重複上述處理。After executing the evaluation value calculation process in step S10 of FIG. 3 , the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 increases the value of the variable n that identifies the candidate of the movement control information by "1" (step S11 ), and then starts from step S09 Repeat the above process.

於步驟S09中,控制裝置100之產生部120於判別為變量n之值大於候選之數量「N」時(步驟S09;否),基於在步驟S10中決定之評估值,自N個候選選擇1個候選(步驟S12),藉此,產生移動機800之移動控制資訊。於本實施例中,產生部120選擇被決定最高之評估值之候選作為移動機800之移動控制資訊。之後,產生部120將產生之移動控制資訊之評估值決定為與移動控制資訊之產生所使用之評估值相同之值。移動控制資訊之產生所使用之評估值意指於步驟S12中選擇之候選之評估值。In step S09, when the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines that the value of the variable n is greater than the number of candidates "N" (step S09; No), based on the evaluation value determined in step S10, select 1 from the N candidates. candidates (step S12), thereby generating movement control information of the mobile machine 800. In this embodiment, the generation unit 120 selects the candidate with the highest evaluation value as the mobility control information of the mobile machine 800 .

Afterwards, the data communication circuit 894 of the mobile machine 800 sends the mobile machine location information of the mobile machine 800 to the control device 100 .

之後,由於在移動機800之資料通訊電路894接收到於圖3之步驟S15中輸出之移動控制資訊時,移動機800之CPU 891依照該移動控制資訊而移動,故執行如圖10所示之移動處理。After that, when the data communication circuit 894 of the mobile machine 800 receives the movement control information output in step S15 of FIG. 3, the CPU 891 of the mobile machine 800 moves according to the movement control information, so the process shown in FIG. 10 is executed. Mobile processing.

於開始執行移動處理時,移動機800之CPU 891自資料通訊電路894取得移動控制資訊,自取得之移動控制資訊取得表示移動路徑之資訊(步驟S51)。When starting to execute the movement process, the CPU 891 of the mobile machine 800 obtains movement control information from the data communication circuit 894, and obtains information indicating the movement path from the obtained movement control information (step S51).

其次,移動機800之CPU 891基於自位置計測電路896輸出之信號,特定移動機800之經度、緯度、及高度。其次,CPU 891基於特定出之經度、緯度、及高度、及於移動路徑中所含之複數個未到達之節點內到達順序最早之節點之經度、緯度、及高度,算出自移動機800之位置向到達順序最早之未到達之節點之方向、與基準之方位形成之方位角ϕ。Secondly, the CPU 891 of the mobile machine 800 specifies the longitude, latitude, and altitude of the mobile machine 800 based on the signal output from the position measurement circuit 896 .

之後,移動機800之CPU 891產生用於使由自方位角感測器897輸出之信號表示之方位角θ、與算出之方位角ϕ一致之控制信號。之後,CPU 891向驅動電路899輸出產生之控制信號(步驟S52),驅動電路899依照控制信號使複數個車輪旋轉。藉此,移動機800將移動機800之行進方向變更為自移動機800之位置向到達順序最早之未到達之節點之方向。Afterwards, the CPU 891 of the mobile machine 800 generates a control signal for making the azimuth angle θ represented by the signal output from the azimuth angle sensor 897 consistent with the calculated azimuth angle ϕ. After that, the CPU 891 outputs the generated control signal to the drive circuit 899 (step S52), and the drive circuit 899 rotates the plurality of wheels according to the control signal. Thereby, the mobile machine 800 changes the traveling direction of the mobile machine 800 to the direction from the position of the mobile machine 800 to the unreached node with the earliest arrival order.

Thereby, the mobile machine 800 moves to the unreached node with the earliest arrival order at the reference speed.

之後,移動機800之CPU 891基於是否已到達移動路徑中所含之複數個節點之所有節點,判別是否已到達移動路徑之終點即搬運之開始位置(步驟S54)。此時,於因並非已到達複數個節點之所有節點,而判別為未到達搬運之開始位置時(步驟S54;否),自步驟S52起重複上述處理。針對於此,CPU 891於因已到達複數個節點之所有節點,而判別為已到達搬運之開始位置時(步驟S54;是),向驅動電路899輸出用於在搬運之開始位置處駐車或停車之控制信號。之後,CPU 891於將控制裝置100作為發送對象,向資料通訊電路894輸出告知移動機800已到達搬運之開始位置之到達報告後(步驟S55),結束移動處理之執行。Thereafter, the CPU 891 of the mobile machine 800 determines whether the end point of the movement path, that is, the start position of the transportation has been reached based on whether all nodes included in the movement path have been reached (step S54). At this time, if it is determined that the transfer start position has not been reached because all nodes of the plurality of nodes have not been reached (step S54; No), the above-described process is repeated from step S52. In response to this, when the CPU 891 determines that the transfer start position has been reached because all nodes of the plurality of nodes have been reached (step S54; YES), the CPU 891 outputs to the drive circuit 899 a signal for parking or parking at the transfer start position. the control signal. After that, the CPU 891 sets the control device 100 as the transmission target and outputs an arrival report to the data communication circuit 894 notifying that the mobile machine 800 has arrived at the transportation start position (step S55), and then ends the execution of the movement process.

Thereby, the control unit 140 controls the moving machine 800 or 900 so that the product is transported from the transportation start position to the transportation destination.

於移動機800之資料通訊電路894自控制裝置100接收到搬運控制資訊時,移動機800之CPU 891基於搬運控制資訊,執行與圖10所示之移動處理同樣之處理。藉此,移動機800依照搬運控制資訊,將商品自搬運之開始位置搬運至搬運目的地。When the data communication circuit 894 of the mobile machine 800 receives the transport control information from the control device 100, the CPU 891 of the mobile machine 800 executes the same process as the transport process shown in FIG. 10 based on the transport control information. Thereby, the moving machine 800 transports the product from the transport start position to the transport destination according to the transport control information.

於本實施例中,商品之搬運目的地係由訂購者指定之接收者、或取代接收者而接收商品之代理人居住之公寓之入口。因此,於移動機800到達搬運目的地時,接收者或代理人自移動機800之儲存箱821接收商品。之後,接收者或代理人對移動機800之輸入裝置895c進行輸出使知悉商品之接收已完成之信號之操作。於輸入裝置895c輸出該信號時,移動機800之CPU 891於返回預設之停車場後,直至接收新的移動控制資訊為止於停車場持續停車或駐車。In this embodiment, the transportation destination of the goods is the entrance to the apartment where the recipient designated by the orderer or the agent who receives the goods on behalf of the recipient lives.

<實施例1之變化例1> 於實施例1中,說明了控制裝置100之取得部110取得表示用於將訂購之商品之狀態設為可開始搬運之狀態之準備所需之準備時間之準備資訊,產生部120基於由準備資訊表示之準備時間,產生移動控制資訊。 <Modification 1 of Embodiment 1> In Embodiment 1, it was explained that the acquisition unit 110 of the control device 100 acquires the preparation information indicating the preparation time required to prepare the ordered product to a state in which transportation can be started, and the generation unit 120 is based on the preparation information. Indicates the preparation time to generate movement control information.

然而,不限定於此,於本變化例中,控制裝置100之取得部110取得表示用於將商品之狀態設為可開始搬運之狀態之準備完成之準備完成時刻之準備資訊,產生部120基於由準備資訊表示之準備完成時刻,產生移動控制資訊。However, it is not limited to this. In this variation, the acquisition unit 110 of the control device 100 acquires preparation information indicating the preparation completion time of preparation for setting the state of the product to a state in which transportation can be started, and the generation unit 120 is based on The preparation completion time represented by the preparation information generates movement control information.

因此,控制裝置100之取得部110於執行完圖6之步驟S21之後,例如,自OS(Operating System,作業系統)取得系統時刻作為受理訂購之時刻(以下稱為訂購受理時刻)。其次,取得部110藉由執行步驟S22,而自資訊記憶部190取得訂購之商品之準備時間、及準備時間與最長容許時間之合計時間。之後,取得部110藉由將準備時間與訂購受理時刻相加而取得表示準備完成時刻之準備資訊,藉由將準備時間與最長容許時間之合計時間與訂購受理時刻相加,而取得表示搬運之開始期限之開始資訊。Therefore, after executing step S21 in FIG. 6 , the acquisition unit 110 of the control device 100 acquires the system time from the OS (Operating System), for example, as the time when the order is accepted (hereinafter referred to as the order acceptance time). Next, the acquisition unit 110 obtains the preparation time of the ordered product and the total time of the preparation time and the maximum allowable time from the information storage unit 190 by executing step S22. Thereafter, the acquisition unit 110 obtains preparation information indicating the preparation completion time by adding the preparation time and the order acceptance time, and obtains preparation information indicating the transportation by adding the total time of the preparation time and the maximum allowable time to the order acceptance time. Start information for the start period.

又,控制裝置100之產生部120於圖3之步驟S06中,探索複數個自移動機800或900之位置到達搬運之開始位置之整體路徑。又,產生部120於移動機800或900以基準之速度移動時,自探索出之複數個整體路徑選擇N個移動機800或900到達搬運之開始位置之時刻為準備完成時刻以後、且為開始期限以前之整體路徑作為移動路徑。Furthermore, in step S06 of FIG. 3 , the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 searches for a plurality of overall paths from the position of the moving machine 800 or 900 to the starting position of transportation. In addition, when the mobile machine 800 or 900 moves at the reference speed, the generation unit 120 selects N mobile machines 800 or 900 from the plurality of discovered overall paths. The time when the mobile machine 800 or 900 reaches the start position of the transportation is after the preparation completion time and is the start. The entire path before the deadline is used as the moving path.

因此,控制裝置100之產生部120與實施例1同樣地,探索複數個自移動機800或900之位置到達開始位置之整體路徑,並針對探索出之複數個整體路徑,算出移動時間。其次,產生部120藉由將複數個整體路徑之移動時間各者對於訂購受理時刻相加,而算出複數個整體路徑各者之到達時刻。之後,產生部120於探索出之複數個整體路徑內,例如基於包含到達時刻由早至晚之順序之預設之規則、或基於軟體隨機數,選擇N個算出之到達時刻為準備完成時刻以後、且為搬運之開始期限以前之整體路徑作為移動路徑。Therefore, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 searches for a plurality of overall paths from the position of the moving machine 800 or 900 to the starting position, and calculates the movement time for the plurality of searched overall paths. Next, the generating unit 120 calculates the arrival time of each of the plurality of entire routes by adding the travel times of each of the plurality of entire routes to the order acceptance time. After that, the generation unit 120 selects N calculated arrival times as after the preparation completion time within the plurality of explored overall paths, for example based on a preset rule including the order of arrival times from early to late, or based on software random numbers. , and the entire path before the start date of transportation is used as the moving path.

<實施例1之變化例2> 於實施例1中,說明了控制裝置100之產生部120於圖7之步驟S44中,基於在移動機800或900於移動控制資訊之第n個候選中所含之移動路徑中移動之情形下推定為由移動機800或900消耗之能量量,決定該候選之評估值,但不限定於此。 <Modification 2 of Example 1> In Embodiment 1, it is explained that the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 in step S44 of FIG. 7 is based on the situation that the mobile machine 800 or 900 moves in the movement path included in the nth candidate of the movement control information. The energy amount estimated to be consumed by the mobile machine 800 or 900 determines the evaluation value of the candidate, but is not limited to this.

本變化例之控制裝置100之產生部120基於推定為由移動機800或900消耗之能量量、及自訂購之商品之準備完成至藉由移動機800或900開始該商品之搬運為止之開始等待時間,決定評估值。The generation unit 120 of the control device 100 of this modification is based on the amount of energy estimated to be consumed by the moving machine 800 or 900 and the start wait from the completion of preparation of the ordered product to the start of transportation of the product by the moving machine 800 or 900 Time determines the evaluation value.

因此,控制裝置100之產生部120於步驟S44中,針對移動控制資訊之第n個候選,基於推定為由移動機800或900消耗之能量量,決定評估值。之後,產生部120藉由自第n個候選中所含之移動路徑之移動時間減去訂購之商品之準備時間,而算出自商品之準備完成至移動機800或900到達搬運之開始位置為止之到達等待時間。產生部120可藉由自移動機800或900到達搬運之開始位置之時刻減去準備完成時刻,而算出到達等待時間。Therefore, in step S44, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines an evaluation value based on the energy amount estimated to be consumed by the mobile machine 800 or 900 for the n-th candidate of the movement control information. Thereafter, the generation unit 120 calculates the time from the completion of preparation of the product to the arrival of the moving machine 800 or 900 at the start position of the transportation by subtracting the preparation time of the ordered product from the moving time of the movement path included in the n-th candidate. Arrival waiting time. The generation unit 120 can calculate the arrival waiting time by subtracting the preparation completion time from the time when the moving machine 800 or 900 arrives at the start position of transportation.

其次,控制裝置100之取得部110自資訊記憶部190取得表示銷售訂購之商品之店鋪之從業人員為了將準備之商品向移動機800或900儲存所需之儲存時間之資訊。又,取得部110自資訊記憶部190取得表示從業人員為了對終端裝置300進行發送儲存完成通知之操作所需之操作時間之資訊。進而,取得部110取得表示自控制裝置100接收到儲存完成通知起、直至藉由對移動機800或900發送搬運控制資訊而使移動機800或900開始搬運為止所需之搬運控制開始時間的資訊。Next, the acquisition unit 110 of the control device 100 acquires, from the information storage unit 190, information indicating the storage time required by an employee of a store selling the ordered product to store the prepared product in the mobile machine 800 or 900. Furthermore, the acquisition unit 110 acquires information indicating the operation time required by the operator to transmit the storage completion notification to the terminal device 300 from the information storage unit 190 . Furthermore, the acquisition unit 110 acquires information indicating the transportation control start time required from when the control device 100 receives the storage completion notification until the transportation control information is transmitted to the mobile machine 800 or 900 and the mobile machine 800 or 900 starts transportation. .

於本變化例中,表示儲存時間之資訊、表示操作時間之資訊、及表示搬運控制開始時間之資訊分別由資訊記憶部190預先記憶。又,儲存時間、操作時間、及搬運控制開始時間之較佳之值可由熟悉此項技術者藉由實驗而決定。進而,儲存時間、操作時間、及搬運控制開始時間之1個以上可為「0」分鐘。In this variation, the information indicating the storage time, the information indicating the operation time, and the information indicating the transfer control start time are respectively stored in advance by the information storage unit 190 . In addition, the better values of storage time, operation time, and transfer control start time can be determined by experiments by those familiar with this technology. Furthermore, one or more of the storage time, operation time, and transfer control start time may be "0" minutes.

之後,控制裝置100之產生部120藉由將由取得之資訊表示之儲存時間、操作時間、及搬運控制開始時間與算出之到達等待時間相加,而算出自準備之完成至開始該商品之搬運為止之開始等待時間。Thereafter, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 calculates the time from the completion of preparation to the start of transportation of the product by adding the storage time, operation time, and transportation control start time represented by the acquired information to the calculated arrival waiting time. Start waiting time.

其次,控制裝置100之產生部120基於算出之開始等待時間,算出第n個候選之評估值之修正值。於本變化例中算出之修正值被用於藉由評估值之減算而進行之修正。因此,產生部120例如藉由將預設之常數與開始等待時間相加,而開始等待時間越長,將修正值算出為越高之值,但修正值之算出方法不限定於此。Next, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 calculates the correction value of the evaluation value of the n-th candidate based on the calculated start waiting time. The correction value calculated in this variation is used for correction by subtracting the estimated value. Therefore, for example, the generation unit 120 adds a preset constant to the start waiting time, and calculates the correction value to be a higher value as the start waiting time is longer, but the method of calculating the correction value is not limited to this.

其次,控制裝置100之取得部110取得資訊記憶部190預先記憶之修正值之正的加權係數。之後,產生部120藉由利用取得之加權係數將算出之修正值進行加權,並自在步驟S44中決定之評估值減去經加權之修正值,而決定修正後之評估值。之後,產生部120結束評估值算出處理之執行。Next, the acquisition unit 110 of the control device 100 acquires the positive weighting coefficient of the correction value stored in advance by the information storage unit 190 . Thereafter, the generation unit 120 weights the calculated correction value using the obtained weighting coefficient and subtracts the weighted correction value from the evaluation value determined in step S44 to determine the corrected evaluation value. After that, the generation unit 120 ends execution of the evaluation value calculation process.

於本變化例中,由於自商品之準備完成至開始該商品之搬運為止之開始等待時間越長,將修正值算出為越高之值,故開始等待時間越長,將修正後之評估值決定為越較修正前為低之值。如上述般修正評估值乃因越是延長開始等待時間之移動控制資訊,越延遲搬運之開始,故越不適切。In this variation, the longer the waiting time from the completion of the preparation of the product to the start of the transportation of the product, the higher the correction value is calculated. Therefore, the longer the starting waiting time, the more corrected the evaluation value is determined. The value is lower than before correction. Correcting the evaluation value as described above is more inappropriate because the longer the movement control information of the start waiting time is extended, the longer the start of transportation is delayed.

根據該等構成,控制裝置100之取得部110對於N個候選各者,決定進一步基於自訂購之商品之準備完成至開始該商品之搬運為止之開始等待時間的評估值。因此,控制裝置100可產生確實地抑制商品之搬運開始之延遲之移動控制資訊。According to these configurations, the acquisition unit 110 of the control device 100 determines an evaluation value further based on the start waiting time from the completion of preparation of the ordered product to the start of transportation of the product for each of the N candidates. Therefore, the control device 100 can generate movement control information that reliably suppresses delays in the start of transportation of goods.

又,於訂購之商品具有商品之狀態伴隨著時間之經過發生變化之性質之情形下,控制裝置100可抑制於搬運之開始前商品之狀態變化為與準備完成時之狀態不同之狀態。亦即,例如,控制裝置100可抑制具有麵條伴隨著時間之經過而伸長等性質之商品於搬運之開始前麵條自不伸長之狀態變化為麵條伸長之狀態。又,例如,控制裝置100可抑制具有加熱調理之必要性、及伴隨著時間之經過而冷卻性質之商品之溫度於搬運之開始前自較預設之溫度為高之溫度變化為該預設之溫度以下之溫度。Furthermore, when the ordered product has a property in which the state of the product changes with the passage of time, the control device 100 can suppress the change of the state of the product before the start of transportation to a state different from the state when preparation is completed. That is, for example, the control device 100 can suppress a product having a property such as noodles elongating with the passage of time, from a non-elongated state to a state in which the noodles are elongated before the start of transportation. For example, the control device 100 can suppress the temperature of a commodity that requires heating and conditioning and has a cooling property as time passes from a temperature higher than a preset temperature to the preset temperature before the start of transportation. temperature below the temperature.

進而,控制裝置100由於抑制商品之搬運開始之延遲,故可提高移動機800或900對商品之搬運效率。於本變化例中,移動機800或900之搬運效率係由每單位時間內移動機800或900搬運之商品之個數表示,但不限定於此。Furthermore, since the control device 100 suppresses a delay in the start of transportation of goods, it is possible to improve the efficiency of transportation of goods by the moving machine 800 or 900. In this variation, the transportation efficiency of the moving machine 800 or 900 is represented by the number of commodities transported by the moving machine 800 or 900 per unit time, but it is not limited to this.

於本變化例中,說明了開始等待時間越長,控制裝置100之產生部120將修正值算出為越高之值,但不限定於此。控制裝置100之產生部120例如可藉由將開始等待時間之倒數設為修正值,而開始等待時間越長,將修正值算出為越低之值。又,產生部120可於利用正的加權係數將算出之修正值進行加權後,將經加權之修正值與在步驟S44中決定之評估值相加。In this variation example, it is explained that the longer the start waiting time is, the higher the correction value is calculated by the generation unit 120 of the control device 100, but it is not limited to this. The generation unit 120 of the control device 100 may, for example, set the reciprocal of the start waiting time as the correction value, and calculate the correction value as a lower value as the start waiting time is longer. In addition, the generation unit 120 may add the weighted correction value to the evaluation value determined in step S44 after weighting the calculated correction value with a positive weighting coefficient.

<實施例1之變化例3> 於實施例1中,說明了控制裝置100之產生部120於圖7之步驟S44中,基於推定為由移動機800或900消耗之能量量,決定評估值,但不限定於此。 <Modification 3 of Embodiment 1> In Embodiment 1, it was described that the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines the evaluation value based on the amount of energy estimated to be consumed by the mobile machine 800 or 900 in step S44 of FIG. 7 , but it is not limited to this.

本變化例之控制裝置100之產生部120基於推定為由移動機800或900消耗之能量量、及移動機800或900自到達搬運之開始位置至經過搬運之開始期限為止之猶豫時間,決定評估值。The generation unit 120 of the control device 100 of this modification determines the evaluation based on the amount of energy estimated to be consumed by the moving machine 800 or 900 and the hesitation time from when the moving machine 800 or 900 reaches the start position of the transportation until the start time limit of the transportation passes. value.

因此,控制裝置100之取得部110藉由執行與實施例1之變化例1同樣之處理,而取得表示搬運之開始期限之開始資訊。又,產生部120於圖3之步驟S06中,與實施例1之變化例1同樣地,針對移動機800或900之移動控制資訊之N個候選,算出移動機800或900到達搬運之開始位置之時刻。Therefore, the acquisition unit 110 of the control device 100 acquires the start information indicating the start time limit of the transfer by executing the same process as the first modification of the first embodiment. In addition, in step S06 of FIG. 3 , the generation unit 120 calculates the arrival of the mobile machine 800 or 900 at the start position of transportation based on the N candidates of the movement control information of the mobile machine 800 or 900 , similarly to the first variation of the first embodiment. moment.

之後,控制裝置100之產生部120於在圖7之步驟S44中,針對移動控制資訊之第n個候選,基於推定為由移動機800或900消耗之能量量,決定評估值之後,算出自針對該候選算出之到達時刻至由開始資訊表示之開始期限為止之猶豫時間。產生部120可藉由自準備時間與最長猶豫時間之合計時間減去移動時間,而算出猶豫時間。Thereafter, in step S44 of FIG. 7 , the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines the evaluation value based on the energy amount estimated to be consumed by the mobile machine 800 or 900 for the n-th candidate of the movement control information, and then calculates the target value. The hesitation time from the calculated arrival time of the candidate to the start period indicated by the start information. The generation unit 120 can calculate the hesitation time by subtracting the movement time from the total time of the preparation time and the maximum hesitation time.

其次,控制裝置100之產生部120基於算出之猶豫時間,算出第n個候選之評估值之修正值。於本變化例中算出之修正值被用於藉由評估值之加算而進行之修正。因此,產生部120例如藉由將預設之常數與猶豫時間相加,而猶豫時間越長,將修正值算出為越高之值,但修正值之算出方法不限定於此。Next, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 calculates the correction value of the evaluation value of the n-th candidate based on the calculated hesitation time. The correction value calculated in this variation is used for correction by adding the evaluation values. Therefore, the generating unit 120 may, for example, add a preset constant to the hesitation time. The longer the hesitation time, the higher the correction value will be calculated. However, the method of calculating the correction value is not limited to this.

其次,控制裝置100之取得部110取得資訊記憶部190預先記憶之修正值之正的加權係數。之後,產生部120利用取得之加權係數將算出之修正值進行加權,並將經加權之修正值與在步驟S44中算出之評估值相加。於本變化例中,由於猶豫時間越長,將修正值算出為越高之值,故猶豫時間越長,將修正後之評估值決定為越較修正前為高之值。如上述般修正評估值乃因越是延長猶豫時間之移動控制資訊,越提前搬運之開始,故越適切。Next, the acquisition unit 110 of the control device 100 acquires the positive weighting coefficient of the correction value stored in advance by the information storage unit 190 . After that, the generation unit 120 weights the calculated correction value using the obtained weighting coefficient, and adds the weighted correction value to the evaluation value calculated in step S44. In this variation example, the longer the hesitation time is, the higher the correction value is calculated. Therefore, the longer the hesitation time is, the higher the value after correction is determined to be than before correction. Correcting the evaluation value as described above is more appropriate because the longer the movement control information of the hesitation time is extended, the earlier the start of transportation is.

根據該等構成,控制裝置100之取得部110進一步取得表示設為訂購之對象之商品之搬運之開始期限之開始資訊,產生部120對於移動控制資訊之N個候選各者決定進一步基於開始資訊之評估值。因此,控制裝置100可產生確實地抑制商品之搬運開始之延遲之移動控制資訊。According to these configurations, the acquisition unit 110 of the control device 100 further acquires start information indicating the start period of transportation of the goods targeted for ordering, and the generation unit 120 determines each of the N candidates of the movement control information further based on the start information. Evaluated value. Therefore, the control device 100 can generate movement control information that reliably suppresses delays in the start of transportation of goods.

於本變化例中,說明了猶豫時間越長,控制裝置100之產生部120將修正值算出為越高之值,但不限定於此。產生部120例如可藉由將令預設之正的常數與猶豫時間相加而得之值之倒數設為修正值,而猶豫時間越長,將修正值算出為越低之值。將正的常數與猶豫時間相加乃因即便猶豫時間為「0」分鐘,亦可算出修正值。又,產生部120可於利用正的加權係數將基於猶豫時間而算出之修正值進行加權後,自於步驟S44中算出之評估值減去經加權之修正值。In this variation example, it has been explained that the longer the hesitation time is, the higher the correction value is calculated by the generation unit 120 of the control device 100, but it is not limited to this. For example, the generation unit 120 may set the reciprocal of the value obtained by adding a preset positive constant and the hesitation time as the correction value, and the longer the hesitation time, the lower the correction value will be calculated. Add the positive constant to the hesitation time because the correction value can be calculated even if the hesitation time is "0" minutes. In addition, the generation unit 120 may weight the correction value calculated based on the hesitation time with a positive weighting coefficient, and then subtract the weighted correction value from the evaluation value calculated in step S44.

<實施例1之變化例4> 於實施例1之變化例2中,說明了控制裝置100之產生部120基於推定為由移動機800或900消耗之能量量與開始等待時間,決定評估值。又,於實施例1之變化例3中,說明了產生部120基於推定為消耗之能量量與直至開始期限為止之猶豫時間,決定評估值。 <Modification 4 of Example 1> In Modification 2 of Embodiment 1, it is explained that the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines the evaluation value based on the amount of energy estimated to be consumed by the mobile machine 800 or 900 and the start waiting time. Furthermore, in Modification 3 of Embodiment 1, it has been described that the generation unit 120 determines the evaluation value based on the amount of energy estimated to be consumed and the hesitation time until the start deadline.

然而,不限定於其等,本變化例之控制裝置100之產生部120基於推定為消耗之能量量、開始等待時間或猶豫時間、及搬運之商品之最長容許時間,決定評估值。However, without being limited thereto, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 in this modification determines the evaluation value based on the energy amount estimated to be consumed, the start waiting time or hesitation time, and the maximum allowable time of the transported product.

因此,控制裝置100之取得部110於圖5之商品表中,取得表示與訂購之商品之商品ID建立對應關係之最長容許時間之資訊,產生部120基於由取得之資訊表示之最長容許時間,算出正的加權係數。Therefore, the acquisition unit 110 of the control device 100 acquires the information indicating the maximum allowable time associated with the item ID of the ordered item from the item table in FIG. 5 , and the generation unit 120 based on the maximum allowable time indicated by the acquired information, Calculate the positive weighting coefficient.

於本變化例中,控制裝置100之產生部120藉由將預設之正的常數乘以最長容許時間之倒數,而最長容許時間越短,將修正值之加權係數算出為越高之值,但加權係數之算出方法不限定於此。如上述般算出加權係數乃因商品之最長容許時間相應於該商品之特性而預設,且商品之特性包含商品之狀態隨著時間之經過發生變化之性質。亦即,此乃因作為自準備完成至開始搬運為止之時間所容許之最長之時間即最長容許時間越短之商品,具有商品之狀態因越短之時間之經過發生變化之性質。In this variation, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 multiplies the preset positive constant by the reciprocal of the maximum allowable time. The shorter the maximum allowable time, the higher the weighting coefficient of the correction value is calculated. However, the method of calculating the weighting coefficient is not limited to this. The weighting coefficient calculated as above is preset because the maximum allowable time of the product corresponds to the characteristics of the product, and the characteristics of the product include the nature of the change of the state of the product with the passage of time. In other words, this is because products with a shorter maximum allowable time, which is the maximum time allowed from the completion of preparation to the start of transportation, have the property that the state of the product changes due to the passage of the shorter time.

之後,控制裝置100之產生部120利用算出之加權係數,將基於開始等待時間或猶豫時間而算出之修正值進行加權,並將經加權之修正值與在步驟S44中算出之評估值相加。於本變化例中,由於最長容許時間越短,將加權係數算出為越大之值,故基於推定為由移動機800或900消耗之能量量而決定之評估值之權重比較,基於開始等待時間或猶豫時間而算出之修正值之權重變得更重。因此,控制裝置100可一面抑制移動機800或900為了移動至搬運之開始位置而消耗之能量量之增加,一面確實地抑制直至移動機800或900到達搬運之開始位置為止產生之商品之狀態之變化。Thereafter, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 uses the calculated weighting coefficient to weight the correction value calculated based on the start waiting time or the hesitation time, and adds the weighted correction value to the evaluation value calculated in step S44. In this variation, since the weighting coefficient is calculated to be a larger value as the maximum allowable time is shorter, a weight comparison based on the evaluation value estimated to be determined by the amount of energy consumed by the mobile machine 800 or 900 is based on the start waiting time. Or the weight of the correction value calculated after hesitating time becomes heavier. Therefore, the control device 100 can suppress an increase in the amount of energy consumed by the moving machine 800 or 900 in order to move to the start position of transportation, while reliably suppressing the change in the state of the product that occurs until the moving machine 800 or 900 reaches the start position of transportation. change.

<實施例1之變化例5> 於實施例1中,說明了於圖3之步驟S06中,於為自移動機800或900之位置到達搬運之開始位置之路徑、且移動機800以基準之速度移動之情形下,選擇N個需要準備時間以上、且合計時間以下之移動時間之移動路徑。 <Variation 5 of Example 1> In Embodiment 1, it was explained that in step S06 of FIG. 3 , in the case where the path is the path from the position of the moving machine 800 or 900 to the starting position of transportation, and the moving machine 800 moves at the reference speed, N are selected. A moving path that requires a moving time of more than the preparation time and less than the total time.

然而,不限定於此。於本變化例中,產生自移動機800或900之位置到達搬運之開始位置之移動路徑、與為預設之限制速度以下之速度、且用於移動機800或900於該移動路徑中以準備時間以上且準備時間與最長容許時間之合計時間以下之移動時間移動之移動速度的N個組合。However, it is not limited to this. In this variation, the moving path generated from the position of the moving machine 800 or 900 to the starting position of transportation is a speed below the preset speed limit, and is used for the moving machine 800 or 900 to prepare in this moving path. N combinations of moving time and moving speed that are more than the time but less than the total time of the preparation time and the maximum allowable time.

因此,控制裝置100之產生部120於步驟S06中,探索複數個自移動機800或900之位置到達開始位置之整體路徑,並針對探索出之複數個整體路徑,算出總距離。之後,產生部120基於針對複數個整體路徑各者算出之總距離,算出移動時間為準備時間以上、且為合計時間以下之移動速度。藉此,產生部120產生整體路徑與移動速度之複數個組合。Therefore, in step S06, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 explores a plurality of overall paths from the position of the mobile machine 800 or 900 to the starting position, and calculates the total distance for the plurality of explored overall paths. Thereafter, the generation unit 120 calculates a moving speed such that the moving time is equal to or greater than the preparation time and equal to or equal to the total time based on the total distance calculated for each of the plurality of entire routes. Thereby, the generating part 120 generates multiple combinations of the overall path and the moving speed.

於本變化例中,控制裝置100之產生部120於移動時間為準備時間以上、且合計時間以下之移動速度內,算出最慢之速度,但不限定於此。產生部120算出之速度只要為移動時間為準備時間以上、且合計時間以下之移動速度,則可為任何速度。例如,產生部120可於移動時間為準備時間以上、且合計時間以下之移動速度內,算出基於預設之規則或軟體隨機數之速度。In this variation, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 calculates the slowest speed within the moving speed where the moving time is more than the preparation time and less than the total time, but it is not limited to this. The speed calculated by the generation unit 120 may be any speed as long as the movement time is equal to or greater than the preparation time and equal to or less than the total time. For example, the generating unit 120 may calculate the speed based on a preset rule or a software random number when the movement time is greater than the preparation time and less than the total time.

之後,控制裝置100之取得部110取得資訊記憶部190預先記憶之表示限制速度之資訊。其次,產生部120自產生之複數個組合排除包含較由取得之資訊表示之限制速度為大之移動速度之組合。其次,產生部120自排除後之組合選擇N個組合作為移動機800或900之移動路徑與移動速度之組合。於本變化例中,按照移動速度由慢至快之順序選擇N個組合,但不限定於此,例如,可自移動速度較預設之速度為慢之複數個組合基於預設之規則或基於軟體隨機數選擇N個組合。After that, the acquisition unit 110 of the control device 100 acquires the information indicating the speed limit stored in advance by the information storage unit 190 . Secondly, the generating unit 120 excludes, from the plurality of generated combinations, combinations that include a moving speed greater than the speed limit indicated by the acquired information. Next, the generating unit 120 selects N combinations from the eliminated combinations as combinations of the moving path and moving speed of the mobile machine 800 or 900 . In this variation, N combinations are selected in order from slow to fast moving speed, but are not limited to this. For example, multiple combinations whose moving speed is slower than the preset speed can be selected based on preset rules or based on The software selects N combinations with random numbers.

之後,控制裝置100之產生部120於步驟S07中,對N個組合賦予第1至第N個編號。其次,產生部120產生包含表示第1個組合中所含之移動路徑之資訊、及表示移動速度之資訊的移動機800或900之移動控制資訊之第1個候選。同樣,產生部120產生移動機800或900之移動控制資訊之第2個至第N個候選。After that, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 assigns the 1st to Nth numbers to the N combinations in step S07. Next, the generation unit 120 generates the first candidate of the movement control information of the mobile machine 800 or 900 including information indicating the movement path included in the first combination and information indicating the movement speed. Similarly, the generating unit 120 generates the 2nd to Nth candidates of the movement control information of the mobile machine 800 or 900 .

之後,控制裝置100於藉由執行圖7之步驟S31,而取得用於將移動機800移動之距離換算為推定為移動機800或900為了移動該距離而消耗之能量量之換算係數αl之後,基於移動速度修正取得之換算係數αl。於本變化例中,控制裝置100之產生部120例如將修正前之換算係數αl乘以將移動速度除以基準之速度而得之值。藉此,移動速度越較基準之速度為快,產生部120將換算係數αl修正為越較修正前為大之值,且移動速度越較基準之速度為慢,將換算係數αl修正為越較修正前為小之值,但換算係數αl之修正方法不限定於此。After that, the control device 100 obtains the conversion coefficient α1 used to convert the distance moved by the mobile machine 800 into the energy amount estimated to be consumed by the mobile machine 800 or 900 in order to move the distance by executing step S31 of FIG. 7 , The conversion coefficient αl obtained based on the movement speed correction. In this variation, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 multiplies the conversion coefficient α1 before correction by a value obtained by dividing the moving speed by the reference speed, for example. Accordingly, the faster the moving speed is than the reference speed, the generating unit 120 corrects the conversion coefficient αl to a larger value than before correction, and the slower the moving speed is than the reference speed, corrects the conversion coefficient αl to a larger value. It is a small value before correction, but the correction method of the conversion coefficient αl is not limited to this.

之後,控制裝置100之產生部120藉由執行步驟S32至S44之處理,而使用修正後之換算係數αl來決定第n個候選之評估值。其次,產生部120藉由在圖3之步驟S12中,基於使用修正後之換算係數αl來決定之評估值,選擇候選,而產生移動機800及900之移動控制資訊。又,選擇部130於步驟S14中,基於使用修正後之換算係數αl來決定之評估值,選擇搬運商品之移動機800或900。之後,控制部140於步驟S15中,將選擇之移動機800或900作為發送對象,向資料通訊電路104輸出包含表示移動路徑之資訊、及表示移動速度之資訊之移動控制資訊。藉此,控制部140對移動機800或900進行於該移動路徑中以該移動速度移動之控制。After that, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines the evaluation value of the n-th candidate using the modified conversion coefficient α1 by executing the processing of steps S32 to S44. Next, the generation unit 120 generates movement control information for the mobile machines 800 and 900 by selecting candidates based on the evaluation value determined using the modified conversion coefficient α1 in step S12 of FIG. 3 . Furthermore, in step S14, the selection unit 130 selects the moving machine 800 or 900 for transporting the product based on the evaluation value determined using the corrected conversion coefficient α1. Thereafter, in step S15, the control unit 140 selects the selected mobile machine 800 or 900 as the transmission target, and outputs the movement control information including the information indicating the movement path and the information indicating the movement speed to the data communication circuit 104. Thereby, the control unit 140 controls the mobile machine 800 or 900 to move in the movement path at the movement speed.

移動機800之CPU 891於圖10之步驟S51中,從自控制裝置100接收到之移動控制資訊取得表示移動路徑之資訊、及表示移動速度之資訊。其次,CPU 891於步驟S53中,向連接於使複數個車輪旋轉之未圖示之馬達之驅動電路899輸出用於以由取得之資訊表示之移動速度於由取得之資訊表示之移動路徑中順行之控制信號。In step S51 of FIG. 10 , the CPU 891 of the mobile machine 800 acquires the information indicating the movement path and the information indicating the movement speed from the movement control information received from the control device 100 . Next, in step S53, the CPU 891 outputs the moving speed represented by the acquired information to the drive circuit 899 connected to a motor (not shown) that rotates the plurality of wheels to smoothly move along the moving path represented by the acquired information. Line control signal.

<實施例1之變化例6> 於實施例1中,說明了移動機800及900以基準模式於移動路徑中移動,但不限定於此。於本變化例中,移動機800及900以低速模式、基準模式、及高速模式之任一模式於移動路徑中移動。 <Modification 6 of Example 1> In Embodiment 1, it has been described that the mobile machines 800 and 900 move in the movement path in the reference mode, but the invention is not limited to this. In this variation, the mobile machines 800 and 900 move on the movement path in any of the low-speed mode, the standard mode, and the high-speed mode.

低速模式係對移動機800或900設定較基準之速度為慢之預設之速度(以下稱為低速度)之動作模式,高速模式係對移動機800或900設定較基準之速度為快之預設之速度(以下稱為高速度)之動作模式。The low-speed mode is an action mode in which the mobile machine 800 or 900 is set to a preset speed that is slower than the base speed (hereinafter referred to as low speed). The high-speed mode is the preset speed in which the mobile machine 800 or 900 is set to be faster than the base speed. Set the speed (hereinafter referred to as high speed) action mode.

因此,本變化例之控制裝置100之產生部120於圖3之步驟S06中,探索N'個(其中,N'為自然數)自移動機800或900之位置到達搬運之開始位置之整體路徑,並針對探索出之N'個整體路徑,算出總距離。其次,控制裝置100之產生部120於針對探索出之N'個整體路徑各者,設定將移動時間設為準備時間以上、且合計時間以下之速度之動作模式內,特定設定最慢之速度之最慢模式。Therefore, in step S06 of FIG. 3 , the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 of this variation explores N′ (where N′ is a natural number) overall paths from the position of the moving machine 800 or 900 to the starting position of the transportation. , and calculate the total distance for the N' overall paths explored. Next, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 specifically sets the slowest speed in the operation mode in which the movement time is set to be a speed equal to or greater than the preparation time and less than the total time for each of the N' total paths discovered. Slowest mode.

因此,控制裝置100之取得部110取得資訊記憶部190預先記憶之表示低速度之資訊、表示基準之速度之資訊、及表示高速度之資訊。其次,產生部120於對N'個整體路徑賦予第1至第N'個編號之後,以值「1」將識別整體路徑之編號之變量n'初始化。Therefore, the acquisition unit 110 of the control device 100 acquires the information indicating the low speed, the information indicating the reference speed, and the information indicating the high speed stored in advance by the information storage unit 190 . Next, after assigning the 1st to N'th numbers to the N' overall paths, the generation unit 120 initializes the variable n' identifying the number of the entire path with the value "1".

之後,控制裝置100之產生部120判別變量n'之值是否為整體路徑之數量N'以下。此時,產生部120於判別為變量n'之值為數N'以下時,基於以變量n'識別之編號之整體路徑之總距離、及以低速模式設定之低速度,判別於移動機800或900以低速度於該整體路徑中移動之情形下,移動時間是否為準備時間以上、且合計時間以下。After that, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines whether the value of the variable n' is less than or equal to the number of total paths N'. At this time, when the generation unit 120 determines that the value of the variable n' is less than the number N', it determines whether the mobile machine 800 or When 900 moves on the entire path at a low speed, is the moving time more than the preparation time and less than the total time?

此時,控制裝置100之產生部120於判別為移動時間未達準備時間時,判別為不存在設定將移動時間設為準備時間以上、且合計時間以下之速度之動作模式。之後,產生部120於將變量n'之值增加值「1」之後,自判別變量n'之值是否為數N'以下之處理起重複上述處理。At this time, when the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines that the movement time has not reached the preparation time, it determines that there is no operation mode that sets the movement time to be a speed equal to or greater than the preparation time and less than the total time. Thereafter, the generation unit 120 increments the value of the variable n' by "1" and then repeats the above-mentioned process starting from the process of determining whether the value of the variable n' is equal to or less than the number N'.

針對於此,控制裝置100之產生部120於判別為移動時間為準備時間以上、且合計時間以下時,特定為最慢模式為低速模式。其次,產生部120選擇以變量n'之值識別之編號之整體路徑作為移動路徑,產生選擇之移動路徑與低速模式之組合。之後,於將變量n'之值增加值「1」之後,自判別變量n'之值是否為數N'以下之處理起重複上述處理。In response to this, when the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines that the movement time is greater than the preparation time and less than the total time, the slowest mode is specified as the low-speed mode. Next, the generating unit 120 selects the overall path numbered by the value of variable n′ as the moving path, and generates a combination of the selected moving path and the low-speed mode. Thereafter, after the value of variable n' is incremented by "1", the above-mentioned process is repeated starting from the process of determining whether the value of variable n' is equal to or less than the number N'.

又,針對於此,控制裝置100之產生部120於判別為移動時間較合計時間為長時,判別於移動機800或900於以變量n'識別之編號之整體路徑中以基準之速度移動之情形下,移動時間是否為準備時間以上、且合計時間以下。Furthermore, in response to this, when the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines that the movement time is longer than the total time, it determines that the mobile machine 800 or 900 moves at the reference speed in the entire path numbered by the variable n'. In this case, whether the movement time is more than the preparation time and less than the total time.

此時,控制裝置100之產生部120於判別為移動時間為準備時間以上、且合計時間以下時,特定為最慢模式為基準模式。其次,產生部120選擇該整體路徑作為移動路徑,產生選擇之移動路徑與基準模式之組合。之後,於將變量n'之值增加值「1」之後,自判別變量n'之值是否為數N'以下之處理起重複上述處理。At this time, when the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines that the movement time is more than the preparation time and less than the total time, it specifies the slowest mode as the reference mode. Next, the generating unit 120 selects the entire path as a moving path, and generates a combination of the selected moving path and the reference pattern. Thereafter, after the value of variable n' is incremented by "1", the above-mentioned process is repeated starting from the process of determining whether the value of variable n' is equal to or less than the number N'.

又,針對於此,控制裝置100之產生部120於判別為移動時間較合計時間為長時,判別於移動機800或900於該整體路徑中以高速度移動之情形下,移動時間是否為準備時間以上、且合計時間以下。Furthermore, in response to this, when the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines that the movement time is longer than the total time, it determines whether the movement time is preparation when the mobile machine 800 or 900 moves at a high speed in the entire path. more than the time and less than the total time.

此時,控制裝置100之產生部120於判別為移動時間為準備時間以上、且合計時間以下時,特定為最慢模式為高速模式。其次,產生部120選擇該整體路徑作為移動路徑,產生選擇之移動路徑與高速模式之組合。之後,於將變量n'之值增加值「1」之後,自判別變量n'之值是否為數N'以下之處理起重複上述處理。At this time, when the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines that the movement time is greater than the preparation time and less than the total time, it specifies the slowest mode as the high-speed mode. Next, the generating unit 120 selects the entire path as a moving path, and generates a combination of the selected moving path and the high-speed mode. Thereafter, after the value of variable n' is incremented by "1", the above-mentioned process is repeated starting from the process of determining whether the value of variable n' is equal to or less than the number N'.

針對於此,控制裝置100之產生部120於判別為移動時間較合計時間為長時,判別為不存在設定將移動時間設為準備時間以上、且合計時間以下之速度之動作模式。之後,產生部120於將變量n'之值增加值「1」之後,自判別變量n'之值是否為數N'以下之處理起重複上述處理。In response to this, when the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines that the movement time is longer than the total time, it determines that there is no operation mode that sets the movement time to a speed equal to or greater than the preparation time and less than the total time. Thereafter, the generation unit 120 increments the value of the variable n' by "1" and then repeats the above-mentioned process starting from the process of determining whether the value of the variable n' is equal to or less than the number N'.

控制裝置100之產生部120於判別為變量n'之值大於數N'時,計數產生之組合之數量N,對產生之N個組合賦予第1至第N個編號。其次,產生部120於步驟S07中,產生包含表示第1個組合中所含之移動路徑之資訊、及表示最慢模式之模式資訊的移動機800或900之移動控制資訊之第1個候選。同樣,產生部120產生移動機800或900之移動控制資訊之第2個至第N個候選。When the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines that the value of the variable n' is greater than the number N', it counts the number N of generated combinations and assigns the 1st to Nth numbers to the generated N combinations. Next, in step S07, the generation unit 120 generates the first candidate of the movement control information of the mobile machine 800 or 900 including the information indicating the movement path included in the first combination and the mode information indicating the slowest mode. Similarly, the generating unit 120 generates the 2nd to Nth candidates of the movement control information of the mobile machine 800 or 900 .

之後,控制裝置100之取得部110於圖7之步驟S31中,取得資訊記憶部190與第n個候選中所含之模式資訊建立對應關係而預先記憶之換算係數αl。於本變化例中,資訊記憶部190與表示高速模式之模式資訊建立對應關係而記憶之換算係數αl大於與表示基準模式之模式資訊建立對應關係而記憶之換算係數αl。資訊記憶部190記憶如此之換算係數αl,乃因於高速模式下設定之高速度較於基準模式下設定之基準之速度為快,故推定為於高速模式下移動機800或900為了移動單位距離而消耗之能量量多於推定為於基準模式下移動機800或900為了移動單位距離而消耗之能量量。Thereafter, in step S31 of FIG. 7 , the acquisition unit 110 of the control device 100 acquires the conversion coefficient αl stored in advance by the information storage unit 190 in correspondence with the pattern information included in the n-th candidate. In this variation, the information storage unit 190 establishes a correspondence relationship with the mode information indicating the high-speed mode and stores the conversion coefficient αl that is greater than the conversion coefficient α1 associated with the mode information indicating the standard mode. The information storage unit 190 stores such a conversion coefficient αl because the high speed set in the high-speed mode is faster than the standard speed set in the standard mode, so it is presumed that the moving machine 800 or 900 in the high-speed mode is to move the unit distance. The energy consumed is more than the energy consumed by the moving machine 800 or 900 in the standard mode to move the unit distance.

又,資訊記憶部190與表示低速模式之模式資訊建立對應關係而記憶之換算係數αl小於與表示基準模式之模式資訊建立對應關係而記憶之換算係數αl。資訊記憶部190記憶如此之換算係數αl,乃因推定為於低速模式下移動機800或900為了移動單位距離而消耗之能量量少於推定為於基準模式下移動機800或900為了移動單位距離而消耗之能量量。In addition, the conversion coefficient αl stored in the information storage unit 190 in association with the mode information indicating the low-speed mode is smaller than the conversion coefficient α1 stored in association with the mode information indicating the standard mode. The information storage unit 190 stores such a conversion coefficient αl because it is estimated that the amount of energy consumed by the mobile machine 800 or 900 in the low-speed mode to move the unit distance is less than the amount of energy consumed by the mobile machine 800 or 900 in the standard mode to move the unit distance. And the amount of energy consumed.

Next, the CPU 891 obtains the information stored in the flash memory 893b by establishing a correspondence relationship with the obtained mode information in advance, and the information represents the speed set in the slowest mode indicated by the mode information. Thereafter, in step S53, the CPU 891 outputs a control signal to the drive circuit 899 for traveling forward in the movement path represented by the obtained information at the speed represented by the obtained information.

根據該等構成,移動機800或900之移動控制資訊之N個候選各者進一步包含表示移動路徑之移動時之移動機800或900之動作模式之資訊。又,控制裝置100之產生部120對於N個候選各者,決定基於在移動機800或900於移動路徑中以該動作模式移動之情形下推定為由移動機800或900消耗之能量量的評估值。因此,控制裝置100可確實地抑制移動機800或900為了移動至搬運之開始位置而消耗之能量量之增加According to these configurations, each of the N candidates of the movement control information of the mobile machine 800 or 900 further includes information indicating the operation mode of the mobile machine 800 or 900 when moving along the movement path. In addition, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines each of the N candidates based on an evaluation of the energy amount estimated to be consumed by the mobile machine 800 or 900 when the mobile machine 800 or 900 moves in the movement pattern in the movement path. value. Therefore, the control device 100 can reliably suppress an increase in the amount of energy consumed by the moving machine 800 or 900 in order to move to the starting position of transportation.

<實施例1之變化例7> 於實施例1之變化例6中,說明了控制裝置100之產生部120於圖3之步驟S06中,於針對自移動機800或900之位置到達開始位置之N個移動路徑各者,設定將移動時間設為準備時間以上、且合計時間以下之速度之動作模式內,特定設定最慢之速度之最慢模式。 <Modification 7 of Example 1> In Modification 6 of Embodiment 1, it is explained that the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 sets, in step S06 of FIG. 3 , for each of the N moving paths from the position of the moving machine 800 or 900 to the starting position.

Next, the generation unit 120 determines whether the value of the variable n' is equal to or less than the number of total paths N'.

Next, the generation unit 120 selects the overall path numbered by the value of variable n′ as the movement path, and generates l combinations of the selected movement path and l candidate patterns. Thereafter, the generation unit 120 increments the value of the variable n' by "1" and then repeats the above-mentioned process starting from the process of determining whether the value of the variable n' is equal to or less than the number N'.

控制裝置100之產生部120於判別為變量n'之值大於數N'時,與實施例1之變化例6同樣地執行步驟S07至S15之處理。藉此,計數產生之組合之數量N,對產生之N個組合賦予第1至第N個編號。其次,產生部120產生包含表示第N個組合中所含之移動路徑之資訊、及表示動作模式之模式資訊的移動機800或900之移動控制資訊之第1個候選。同樣,產生部120產生移動機800或900之移動控制資訊之第2個至第N個候選。之後,控制裝置100基於N個候選,產生包含表示移動路徑之資訊、及表示動作模式之模式資訊之移動控制資訊,並向移動機800或900發送產生之移動控制資訊。When the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines that the value of the variable n' is greater than the number N', it executes the processing of steps S07 to S15 in the same manner as the variation 6 of the first embodiment. Thereby, the number N of generated combinations is counted, and the 1st to Nth numbers are assigned to the generated N combinations. Next, the generation unit 120 generates the first candidate of the movement control information of the mobile machine 800 or 900 including the information indicating the movement path included in the N-th combination and the mode information indicating the operation mode. Similarly, the generating unit 120 generates the 2nd to Nth candidates of the movement control information of the mobile machine 800 or 900 .

<實施例1之變化例17> 於本實施例中,說明了控制裝置100具備資訊記憶部190,但不限定於此。本變化例之控制裝置100不具備資訊記憶部190。本變化例之控制裝置100例如為NAS(Network Attached Storage,網絡附加存儲),且與具有與資訊記憶部190之功能同樣之功能之未圖示之資訊記憶裝置經由網際網路IN連接,使用資訊記憶裝置記憶之資訊,執行圖3所示之移動控制處理、圖6所示之資訊取得處理、及圖7所示之評估值算出處理。本變化例之搬運系統1可具備資訊記憶裝置,亦可不具備資訊記憶裝置。 <Modification 17 of Embodiment 1> In this embodiment, it has been described that the control device 100 includes the information storage unit 190, but it is not limited thereto. The control device 100 of this variation does not include the information storage unit 190 . The control device 100 of this variation is, for example, a NAS (Network Attached Storage), and is connected to an information storage device (not shown) that has the same function as the information storage unit 190 via the Internet IN, and uses the information.

<實施例1之變化例18> 於實施例中,說明了搬運系統1具備控制裝置100,但不限定於此,可不具備控制裝置100。該情形下,圖3所示之移動控制處理、圖6所示之資訊取得處理、及圖7所示之評估值算出處理可由移動機800具備之控制裝置890之CPU 891執行。因此,移動機800之CPU 891可作為相當於控制裝置100之取得部110、產生部120、選擇部130、及控制部140之未圖示之功能部發揮功能。又,移動機800之快閃記憶體893b可作為相當於控制裝置100之資訊記憶部190之未圖示之功能部發揮功能。 <Modification 18 of Embodiment 1> In the embodiment, it has been described that the transportation system 1 is provided with the control device 100, but it is not limited to this and does not need to be provided with the control device 100.

In addition, the flash memory 893b of the mobile device 800 can function as a functional unit (not shown) equivalent to the information storage unit 190 of the control device 100.

<實施例2> 於實施例1中,說明了於圖3之步驟S06中,控制裝置100之產生部120從自移動機800或900之位置到達搬運之開始位置之複數個整體路徑,選擇N個於移動機800以基準之速度移動之情形下需要準備時間以上、且合計時間以下之移動時間之移動路徑,作為移動路徑。 <Example 2> In Embodiment 1, it is explained that in step S06 of FIG. 3 , the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 selects N of the plurality of overall paths from the position of the moving machine 800 or 900 to the starting position of the transportation for the moving machine 800 The movement path requires a movement time of more than the preparation time and less than the total time when moving at the standard speed.

然而,不限定於此,本實施例之控制裝置100之產生部120選擇合計N個於移動機800以基準之速度移動之情形下需要較準備時間為短之移動時間之整體路徑、及需要準備時間以上、且合計時間以下之移動時間之整體路徑,作為移動路徑。以下,針對與實施例1同樣之構成,使用與實施例1所使用之符號相同之符號進行說明,但主要針對本實施例與實施例1之不同進行說明。However, it is not limited to this. The generation unit 120 of the control device 100 of this embodiment selects a total of N total paths that require a shorter movement time than the preparation time when the mobile machine 800 moves at the reference speed, and requires preparation. The overall path of the movement time above the total time and below the total time is regarded as the movement path. Hereinafter, the same structures as those in Embodiment 1 will be described using the same symbols as those used in Embodiment 1, but the differences between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 will be mainly described.

因此,本實施例之控制裝置100之產生部120於步驟S06中,探索複數個自移動機800或900之位置到達開始位置之整體路徑,並針對探索出之複數個整體路徑,算出移動時間。其次,產生部120於探索出之複數個整體路徑內,選擇N個算出之移動時間為合計時間以下之整體路徑,作為移動路徑。之後,產生部120對N個移動路徑賦予第1至第N個編號。Therefore, in step S06, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 of this embodiment explores a plurality of overall paths from the position of the mobile machine 800 or 900 to the starting position, and calculates the movement time for the plurality of explored overall paths. Next, the generation unit 120 selects N total paths whose calculated movement time is less than the total time among the plurality of searched overall paths as movement paths. Then, the generation unit 120 assigns the 1st to Nth numbers to the N movement paths.

之後,控制裝置100之產生部120於圖7之步驟S44中,針對移動控制資訊之第n個候選,基於推定為由移動機800或900消耗之能量量,決定評估值。其次,產生部120判別由在圖6之步驟S22中取得之準備資訊表示之準備時間是否為針對該候選算出之移動時間以下。Thereafter, in step S44 of FIG. 7 , the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines an evaluation value based on the energy amount estimated to be consumed by the mobile machine 800 or 900 for the n-th candidate of the movement control information. Next, the generation unit 120 determines whether the preparation time indicated by the preparation information acquired in step S22 of FIG. 6 is less than or equal to the movement time calculated for the candidate.

此時,產生部120於判別為準備時間為移動時間以下時,判別為於在該候選中所含之移動路徑中以基準之速度移動之情形下,於移動機800或900到達搬運之開始位置時,搬運之商品之準備完成。因此,產生部120判別為自移動機800或900到達搬運之開始位置至搬運之商品之準備完成為止之準備等待時間為「0」分鐘。針對於此,產生部120於判別為準備時間較移動時間為長時,藉由自移動時間減去準備資訊,而算出準備等待時間。產生部可藉由自準備完成時刻減去到達時刻,而算出準備等待時間。At this time, when the generation unit 120 determines that the preparation time is less than the movement time, it determines that the moving machine 800 or 900 reaches the transportation start position when the movement path included in the candidate is moved at the reference speed. At that time, the preparation of the goods to be transported is completed. Therefore, the generation unit 120 determines that the preparation waiting time from the time when the moving machine 800 or 900 reaches the start position of transportation until the preparation of the transported merchandise is completed is "0" minutes. In response to this, when it is determined that the preparation time is longer than the movement time, the generation unit 120 calculates the preparation waiting time by subtracting the preparation information from the movement time. The generation unit can calculate the preparation waiting time by subtracting the arrival time from the preparation completion time.

其次,控制裝置100之產生部120基於算出之準備等待時間,算出第n個候選之評估值之修正值。於本實施例中算出之修正值被用於藉由評估值之加算而進行之修正。因此,產生部120例如可藉由將令預設之正的常數與準備等待時間相加而得之值之倒數設為修正值,而準備等待時間越短,將修正值算出為越高之值。將正的常數與準備等待時間相加乃因即便準備等待時間為「0」分鐘,亦可算出修正值。於本實施例中,修正值作為將正的常數與準備等待時間相加而得之值之倒數而算出,但修正值之算出方法不限定於此。Next, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 calculates the correction value of the evaluation value of the n-th candidate based on the calculated preparation waiting time. The correction value calculated in this embodiment is used for correction by addition of the evaluation values. Therefore, the generation unit 120 may, for example, set the reciprocal of the value obtained by adding a preset positive constant and the preparation waiting time as the correction value, and the shorter the preparation waiting time is, the higher the correction value is calculated. The positive constant is added to the preparation waiting time because the correction value can be calculated even if the preparation waiting time is "0" minutes. In this embodiment, the correction value is calculated as the reciprocal of the value obtained by adding a positive constant and the preparation waiting time, but the method of calculating the correction value is not limited to this.

其次,控制裝置100之取得部110取得資訊記憶部190預先記憶之修正值之正的加權係數。之後,產生部120利用取得之加權係數將算出之修正值進行加權,並將經加權之修正值與在步驟S44中算出之評估值相加。於本實施例中,由於準備等待時間越短,將修正值算出為越高之值,故準備等待時間越短,將修正後之評估值決定為越較修正前為高之值。Next, the acquisition unit 110 of the control device 100 acquires the positive weighting coefficient of the correction value stored in advance by the information storage unit 190 . After that, the generation unit 120 weights the calculated correction value using the obtained weighting coefficient, and adds the weighted correction value to the evaluation value calculated in step S44. In this embodiment, since the shorter the preparation waiting time is, the higher the correction value is calculated. Therefore, the shorter the preparation waiting time is, the higher the estimated value after correction is determined to be.

根據該等構成,控制裝置100之產生部120決定基於在移動機800或900於移動路徑中移動之情形下推定為由移動機800或900消耗之能量量、及自移動機800或900到達搬運之開始位置至設為訂購之對象之商品之準備完成為止之準備等待時間的評估值。因此,控制裝置100可產生一面抑制搬運開始之延遲、一面抑制移動機800或900為了移動至搬運之開始位置而消耗之能量量之增加之移動控制資訊According to these configurations, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines based on the energy amount estimated to be consumed by the mobile machine 800 or 900 when the mobile machine 800 or 900 moves on the movement path, and the amount of energy arriving from the mobile machine 800 or 900. The estimated value of the preparation waiting time from the starting position to the completion of preparation of the product to be ordered. Therefore, the control device 100 can generate movement control information that suppresses a delay in the start of transportation while suppressing an increase in the amount of energy consumed by the moving machine 800 or 900 in order to move to the start position of transportation.

又,根據該等構成,自移動機800或900到達搬運之開始位置至訂購之商品之準備完成為止之準備等待時間越短,控制裝置100之產生部120將評估值決定為越高。因此,由於可抑制自移動機800或900到達搬運之開始位置至開始商品之搬運為止之時間增長,故可產生抑制搬運之開始位置之使用效率之降低之移動控制資訊。Furthermore, according to these configurations, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines the evaluation value to be higher as the preparation waiting time from when the moving machine 800 or 900 arrives at the start position of the transportation until the preparation of the ordered product is completed is shorter. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the increase in time from when the moving machine 800 or 900 arrives at the start position of transportation until the transportation of the product is started. Therefore, it is possible to generate movement control information that suppresses a decrease in the use efficiency of the start position of transportation.

於本實施例中,搬運之開始位置之使用效率係藉由將對該開始位置之附近加以利用之人可使用之區域之面積除以該附近中所含之區域之面積而算出。又,開始位置之附近中所含之區域意指較與開始位置隔開預設之距離D2之邊界線更靠開始位置側之區域(其中,D2為正數)。於本實施例中,決定開始位置之附近之距離D2較決定開始位置之附近之距離D1為短,但不限定於此。距離D2可等於距離D1,亦可較距離D1為長。In this embodiment, the usage efficiency of the starting position of transportation is calculated by dividing the area of the area that can be used by people who use the vicinity of the starting position by the area of the area included in the vicinity. In addition, the area included in the vicinity of the starting position means an area closer to the starting position than the boundary line separated from the starting position by a predetermined distance D2 (where D2 is a positive number). In this embodiment, the distance D2 near the determined starting position is shorter than the distance D1 near the determined starting position, but it is not limited thereto. The distance D2 may be equal to the distance D1, or may be longer than the distance D1.

又,於本實施例中,由於搬運之開始位置為銷售訂購之商品之店鋪之入口之位置,故開始位置之附近中所含之區域包含店鋪之入口內之區域。進而,對該開始位置之附近加以利用之人可使用之區域之面積例如包含不置放包含移動機800及900之物體之區域之面積。因此,控制裝置100可抑制移動機800或900妨礙、或有可能妨礙包含顧客或從業人員之出入店鋪之人之通行之時間之增長。Furthermore, in this embodiment, since the starting position of the transportation is the entrance of the store where the ordered goods are sold, the area included in the vicinity of the starting position includes the area within the entrance of the store. Furthermore, the area of the area that can be used by people who use the vicinity of the starting position includes, for example, the area of the area where objects including the mobile machines 800 and 900 are not placed. Therefore, the control device 100 can suppress an increase in the time during which the mobile machine 800 or 900 obstructs or is likely to obstruct the passage of people entering and exiting the store, including customers and employees.

於本實施例中,說明了準備等待時間越短,控制裝置100之產生部120將修正值決定為越高之值,但不限定於此。產生部120例如可藉由將預設之常數與準備等待時間相加而得之值設為修正值,而準備等待時間越短,將修正值算出為越低之值。又,產生部120於利用正的加權係數將基於準備等待時間而算出之修正值進行加權後,自於步驟S44中決定之評估值減去經加權之修正值。In this embodiment, it is explained that the shorter the preparation waiting time is, the higher the correction value is determined by the generation unit 120 of the control device 100, but it is not limited to this. For example, the generating unit 120 may set the value obtained by adding a preset constant and the preparation waiting time as the correction value, and the shorter the preparation waiting time is, the lower the correction value is calculated. In addition, the generation unit 120 weights the correction value calculated based on the preparation waiting time with a positive weighting coefficient, and then subtracts the weighted correction value from the evaluation value determined in step S44.

<實施例2之變化例1> 於實施例2中,說明了控制裝置100之產生部120於圖7之步驟S44中,基於推定為由移動機800或900消耗之能量量、及於搬運之開始位置處之準備等待時間,決定評估值,但不限定於此。 <Modification 1 of Example 2> In Embodiment 2, it was explained that the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines based on the energy amount estimated to be consumed by the moving machine 800 or 900 and the preparation waiting time at the starting position of the transportation in step S44 of FIG. 7 Evaluated value, but not limited to this.

本變化例之控制裝置100之產生部120基於推定為由移動機800或900消耗之能量量、於搬運之開始位置處之準備等待時間、及於搬運之開始位置之附近於位置是否有待機場所,決定評估值。於本變化例中,待機場所為容許移動機800及900停車或駐車之停車場,但不限定於此,只要為移動機800及900可停車或駐車之場所,則可為任何場所。The generation unit 120 of the control device 100 of this variation is based on the amount of energy estimated to be consumed by the mobile machine 800 or 900, the preparation waiting time at the starting position of transportation, and whether there is a waiting space near the starting position of transportation. , determine the evaluation value. In this variation, the waiting airport is a parking lot that allows the mobile machines 800 and 900 to park or park, but it is not limited to this. It can be any place as long as it is a place where the mobile machines 800 and 900 can park or park.

因此,控制裝置100之取得部110於圖6之步驟S23中,於取得表示搬運之開始位置之開始位置資訊之後,自資訊記憶部190取得表示於該開始位置之附近是否存在用於供移動機800及900待機之待機場所之待機場所旗標。又,取得部110自資訊記憶部190取得以經度、緯度、及高度表示待機場所之位置之資訊。於本變化例中表示待機場所旗標及待機場所之位置之資訊係由資訊記憶部190預先記憶。Therefore, in step S23 of FIG. 6 , the acquisition unit 110 of the control device 100 acquires from the information storage unit 190 , after acquiring the start position information indicating the start position of transportation, whether there is a moving machine near the start position. Waiting area flags for 800 and 900 waiting areas. In addition, the acquisition unit 110 acquires information indicating the position of the waiting area in terms of longitude, latitude, and altitude from the information storage unit 190 . In this variation example, the information indicating the flag of the waiting area and the location of the waiting area is stored in advance by the information memory unit 190 .

之後,控制裝置100之產生部120於圖7之步驟S44中,針對移動控制資訊之第n個候選,基於推定為由移動機800或900消耗之能量量,決定評估值。其次,產生部120於藉由取得之待機場所旗標顯示不存在待機場所之情形下,藉由執行實施例2所說明之處理,而算出準備等待時間,並基於算出之準備等待時間,算出修正值。在本變化例中算出之修正值由於被用於藉由評估值之加算而進行之修正,故準備等待時間越短,算出為越高之值。Thereafter, in step S44 of FIG. 7 , the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines an evaluation value based on the energy amount estimated to be consumed by the mobile machine 800 or 900 for the n-th candidate of the movement control information. Next, when the obtained waiting place flag shows that there is no waiting place, the generating unit 120 calculates the preparation waiting time by executing the process described in Embodiment 2, and calculates a correction based on the calculated preparation waiting time. value. Since the correction value calculated in this variation is used for correction by adding the evaluation values, the shorter the preparation waiting time is, the higher the value is calculated.

針對於此,控制裝置100之產生部120於藉由取得之待機場所旗標顯示存在待機場所之情形下,算出於準備等待時間為「0」分鐘時算出之最大之修正值。算出如此之修正值乃因若直至訂購之商品之準備完成為止,移動機800或900於待機場所待機,則不會降低搬運之開始位置之利用效率。In response to this, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 calculates the maximum correction value calculated when the preparation waiting time is "0" minutes when the obtained waiting place flag indicates that the waiting place exists. Such a correction value is calculated because if the mobile machine 800 or 900 waits at the waiting area until the preparation of the ordered goods is completed, the utilization efficiency of the starting position of transportation will not be reduced.

之後,控制裝置100之產生部120與實施例2同樣地,藉由利用正的加權係數將算出之修正值進行加權,將經加權之修正值與評估值相加,而修正評估值。於本變化例中,於在搬運之開始位置存在待機場所之情形下,將經加權之最大之修正值與評估值相加。之後,產生部120結束評估值算出處理之執行。Thereafter, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 weights the calculated correction value with a positive weighting coefficient, and adds the weighted correction value and the evaluation value, similarly to Embodiment 2, to correct the evaluation value. In this variation, when there is a waiting space at the starting position of transportation, the weighted maximum correction value is added to the evaluation value. After that, the generation unit 120 ends execution of the evaluation value calculation process.

之後,控制裝置100之產生部120於圖3之步驟S12中,基於經修正之評估值,產生移動機800及900之移動控制資訊。又,選擇部130於步驟S14中,基於經修正之評估值,選擇移動機800或900。其次,產生部120於步驟S15中,於選擇之移動機800或900之移動控制資訊中追加表示準備等待時間之資訊。Afterwards, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 generates movement control information of the mobile machines 800 and 900 based on the modified evaluation value in step S12 of FIG. 3 . Furthermore, in step S14, the selection unit 130 selects the mobile machine 800 or 900 based on the modified evaluation value. Next, in step S15, the generation unit 120 adds information indicating the preparation waiting time to the movement control information of the selected mobile machine 800 or 900.

之後,控制裝置100之產生部120判別準備等待時間是否較較「0」分鐘為長。此時,產生部120於判別為準備等待時間較「0」分鐘為長時,基於待機場所旗標,判別於搬運之開始位置之附近之位置是否存在待機場所。產生部120於判別為存在待機場所時,藉由執行與圖3之步驟S06同樣之處理,而探索自搬運之開始位置到達待機場所之最短之整體路徑(以下稱為待機路徑)。其次,產生部120於移動機800或900之移動控制資訊中追加表示待機路徑之資訊。Afterwards, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines whether the preparation waiting time is longer than "0" minutes. At this time, when the generation unit 120 determines that the preparation waiting time is longer than "0" minutes, based on the waiting place flag, it determines whether there is a waiting place near the transfer start position. When the generation unit 120 determines that there is a waiting place, it searches for the shortest overall path (hereinafter referred to as the waiting path) from the start position of the transfer to the waiting place by executing the same process as step S06 in FIG. 3 . Next, the generation unit 120 adds information indicating the standby path to the mobility control information of the mobile device 800 or 900 .

針對於此,於判別為準備等待時間為「0」分鐘時、於判別為不存在待機場所時、或於在移動控制資訊中追加表示待機路徑之資訊之後,控制裝置100之控制部140將移動機800或900作為發送對象,向資料通訊電路104輸出移動控制資訊。藉此,於判別為準備等待時間為「0」分鐘時,控制部140對移動機800或900進行向搬運之開始位置移動之控制。又,於準備等待時間較「0」分鐘為長,且於搬運之開始位置之附近之位置不存在待機場所時,控制部140對移動機800或900依序進行向搬運之開始位置移動之控制、及於開始位置處在準備等待時間內待機之控制。進而,於準備等待時間較「0」分鐘為長,且於搬運之開始位置之附近之位置存在待機場所時,控制部140對移動機800或900依序進行向搬運之開始位置移動之控制、自開始位置向待機場所移動之控制、於待機場所在準備等待時間內待機之控制、及自待機場所向開始位置移動之控制。In response to this, when it is determined that the preparation waiting time is "0" minutes, when it is determined that there is no waiting place, or after information indicating the waiting path is added to the movement control information, the control unit 140 of the control device 100 moves The machine 800 or 900 is used as the transmission target and outputs the movement control information to the data communication circuit 104. Thereby, when it is determined that the preparation waiting time is "0" minutes, the control unit 140 controls the moving machine 800 or 900 to move to the transportation start position. In addition, when the preparation waiting time is longer than "0" minutes and there is no waiting space near the transfer start position, the control unit 140 controls the moving machine 800 or 900 to sequentially move to the transfer start position. , and the control of waiting during the preparation and waiting time at the starting position. Furthermore, when the preparation waiting time is longer than "0" minutes and there is a waiting space near the transfer start position, the control unit 140 sequentially controls the moving machine 800 or 900 to move to the transfer start position. The control of moving from the starting position to the waiting airport, the control of waiting during the preparation and waiting time at the waiting airport, and the control of moving from the waiting airport to the starting position.

本變化例之移動機900之功能由於與移動機800之功能同樣,故以下,主要針對移動機800進行說明。移動機800之CPU 891於圖10之步驟S51中,取得自控制裝置100接收到之移動控制資訊,於自取得之移動控制資訊取得表示移動路徑之資訊、表示準備等待時間之資訊之後,試行表示待機路徑之資訊之取得。Since the function of the mobile machine 900 in this variation is the same as the function of the mobile machine 800, the following description will mainly focus on the mobile machine 800. In step S51 of FIG. 10 , the CPU 891 of the mobile machine 800 obtains the movement control information received from the control device 100 , and after obtaining the information indicating the movement path and the information indicating the preparation waiting time from the obtained movement control information, the trial display is performed. Acquisition of waiting path information.

此時,若取得表示待機路徑之資訊,則移動機800之CPU 891基於表示移動路徑之資訊,執行步驟S52至S54之處理。藉此,移動機800於移動路徑中向搬運之開始位置移動。於判別為已到達搬運之開始位置時(步驟S54;是),移動機800之CPU 891基於表示待機路徑之資訊,執行與步驟S52至S54同樣之處理。藉此,移動機800於待機路徑中自搬運之開始位置向待機場所順行移動。At this time, if the information indicating the waiting path is obtained, the CPU 891 of the mobile device 800 executes the processing of steps S52 to S54 based on the information indicating the moving path. Thereby, the moving machine 800 moves to the transportation start position in the movement path. When it is determined that the transportation start position has been reached (step S54; YES), the CPU 891 of the mobile machine 800 executes the same processing as steps S52 to S54 based on the information indicating the waiting path. Thereby, the mobile machine 800 moves forward from the transportation start position to the waiting airport on the waiting path.

之後,移動機800之CPU 891於向驅動電路899輸出用於停車或駐車之控制信號之後,開始計時。其次,移動機800之CPU 891於判別為所計時之時間超過準備等待時間時,基於表示待機路徑之資訊,執行與步驟S52至S54同樣之處理。藉此,移動機800於待機路徑逆行而自待機場所向開始位置移動。之後,CPU 891於執行完步驟S55之處理之後,結束移動處理之執行。After that, the CPU 891 of the mobile machine 800 starts timing after outputting a control signal for parking or parking to the drive circuit 899. Next, when the CPU 891 of the mobile device 800 determines that the counted time exceeds the preparation waiting time, based on the information indicating the standby path, the CPU 891 executes the same processing as steps S52 to S54. Thereby, the mobile machine 800 moves backward on the waiting path and moves from the starting position toward the waiting airport. Afterwards, the CPU 891 ends the execution of the movement process after completing the process of step S55.

如此,移動機800於自移動控制資訊取得表示待機路徑之資訊之情形下,依照該移動控制資訊,於商品之準備完成之前到達搬運之開始位置,自開始位置向待機場所移動,直至商品之準備完成為止於待機場所待機,而後,自待機場所向開始位置移動。In this way, when the mobile machine 800 obtains the information indicating the waiting path from the movement control information, according to the movement control information, it reaches the start position of transportation before the preparation of the goods is completed, and moves from the start position to the waiting area until the goods are prepared. After completing the process, the vehicle waits at the waiting airport, and then moves from the waiting airport to the starting position.

針對於此,若未取得表示待機路徑之資訊,則移動機800藉由執行步驟S52至S54之處理,而於移動路徑中向搬運之開始位置移動。移動機800於判別為已到達搬運之開始位置時,於在搬運之開始位置處停車或駐車之後,開始計時。之後,移動機800之CPU 891於判別為所計時之時間超過準備等待時間時,在執行完步驟S55之處理之後,結束移動處理之執行。In this regard, if the information indicating the waiting path is not obtained, the mobile machine 800 moves to the start position of transportation in the movement path by executing the processing of steps S52 to S54. When the mobile machine 800 determines that it has arrived at the start position of transportation, it starts timing after parking or parking at the start position of transportation. Afterwards, when the CPU 891 of the mobile machine 800 determines that the counted time exceeds the preparation waiting time, the CPU 891 ends the execution of the movement process after completing the process of step S55.

如此,於未自移動控制資訊取得表示待機路徑之資訊,且準備等待時間較「0」分鐘為長之情形下,移動機800依照移動控制資訊,於商品之準備完成之前到達搬運之開始位置,直至商品之準備完成為止於開始位置處待機。針對於此,於未自移動控制資訊取得表示待機路徑之資訊,且準備等待時間為「0」分鐘之情形下,移動機800於商品之準備完成時、或於準備完成之後,到達搬運之開始位置。In this way, when the information indicating the waiting path is not obtained from the movement control information and the preparation waiting time is longer than "0" minutes, the mobile machine 800 arrives at the start position of transportation before the preparation of the product is completed according to the movement control information. Wait at the starting position until the product is ready. In this regard, when the information indicating the waiting path has not been obtained from the movement control information and the preparation waiting time is "0" minutes, the mobile machine 800 arrives at the start of transportation when or after the preparation of the product is completed. Location.

根據該等構成,控制裝置100之產生部120對於移動控制資訊之N個候選各者,決定基於在位於與搬運之開始位置相隔較預設之距離D1為短之距離之附近之位置是否存在用於供移動機800及900待機之待機場所的評估值。因此,控制裝置100可產生抑制搬運之開始位置之使用效率之降低之移動控制資訊。According to these configurations, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines, for each of the N candidates of the movement control information, whether or not there is a user at a position near the start position of the transportation that is shorter than the preset distance D1. The estimated value of the standby space for mobile phones 800 and 900. Therefore, the control device 100 can generate movement control information that suppresses a decrease in the use efficiency of the starting position of transportation.

於本變化例中,說明了準備等待時間越短,控制裝置100之產生部120將修正值算出為越高之值。然而,不限定於此,可行的是,準備等待時間越短,產生部120將修正值算出為越低之值。又,產生部120於藉由待機場所旗標顯示存在待機場所之情形下,可算出最小之修正值。進而,產生部120可於利用正的加權係數將算出之修正值進行加權後,自評估值減去經加權之修正值。In this variation example, it is explained that the shorter the preparation waiting time is, the higher the correction value is calculated by the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 . However, it is not limited to this. It is possible that the generation unit 120 calculates the correction value to be a lower value as the preparation waiting time is shorter. In addition, the generation unit 120 can calculate the minimum correction value when the waiting place flag indicates that the waiting place exists. Furthermore, the generating unit 120 may, after weighting the calculated correction value with a positive weighting coefficient, subtract the weighted correction value from the evaluation value.

<實施例2之變化例2> 搬運之開始位置為由訂購者指定之店鋪之入口之位置之實施例1之變化例14、與基於在搬運之開始位置之附近之位置是否有待機場所而決定移動控制資訊之候選之評估值之實施例2之變化例1可組合。 <Modification 2 of Embodiment 2> Modification 14 of Embodiment 1 in which the starting position of the transportation is the entrance of the store specified by the orderer, and an evaluation value that determines candidates for the movement control information based on whether there is a waiting place near the starting position of the transportation. Variation 1 of Embodiment 2 can be combined.

該情形下,控制裝置100之取得部110只要自訂購請求取得店鋪ID,並取得資訊記憶部190與取得之店鋪ID預先建立對應關係而記憶之待機場所旗標即可。於本變化例中,與店鋪ID建立對應關係之待機場所旗標係表示於以該店鋪ID識別之店鋪之附近之位置是否存在用於供移動機800及900待機之待機場所之旗標。In this case, the acquisition unit 110 of the control device 100 only needs to acquire the store ID from the order request, and acquire the waiting place flag stored in the information storage unit 190 by establishing a correspondence relationship with the acquired store ID in advance. In this variation, the waiting area flag corresponding to the store ID is a flag indicating whether there is a waiting area for the mobile machines 800 and 900 to wait near the store identified by the store ID.

又,該情形下,控制裝置100之取得部110只要取得表示資訊記憶部190與取得之店鋪I預先建立對應關係而記憶之待機場所之位置之資訊即可。於本變化例中,表示與店鋪ID建立對應關係之待機場所之位置之資訊係以經度、緯度、及高度表示位於以該店鋪ID識別之店鋪之附近之位置之待機場所之位置之資訊。In this case, the acquisition unit 110 of the control device 100 only needs to acquire the information indicating the location of the waiting area stored in the information storage unit 190 by establishing a correspondence relationship with the acquired store I in advance. In this variation, the information indicating the location of the waiting area associated with the store ID is information indicating the location of the waiting area located near the store identified by the store ID in terms of longitude, latitude, and altitude.

<實施例2之變化例3> 於實施例2之變化例1中,說明了控制裝置100之產生部120基於在搬運之開始位置之附近之位置是否有待機場所,決定評估值,但不限定於此。 <Modification 3 of Embodiment 2> In Modification 1 of Embodiment 2, it has been described that the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 determines the evaluation value based on whether there is a waiting space near the transfer start position, but it is not limited to this.

控制裝置100之產生部120可基於搬運之開始位置是否為待機場所之位置,決定評估值。亦即,產生部120可基於在搬運之開始位置是否存在待機場所,決定評估值。又,產生部120可基於在搬運之開始位置或開始位置之附近之位置存在待機場所、或於搬運之開始位置及開始位置之附近之位置不存在待機場所,決定評估值。The generation unit 120 of the control device 100 may determine the evaluation value based on whether the starting position of the transportation is the position of the waiting place. That is, the generation unit 120 may determine the evaluation value based on whether there is a waiting space at the starting position of transportation. In addition, the generation unit 120 may determine the evaluation value based on the existence of a waiting place at or near the start position of the transportation, or the absence of a waiting place at the start position of the transportation or the vicinity of the start position.

<實施例2之變化例4> 於實施例2之變化例1中,說明了由控制裝置100之產生部120算出之修正值由於被用於藉由評估值之加算而進行之修正,故於在搬運之開始位置之附近之位置存在待機場所之情形下,算出最大之修正值,但不限定於此。 <Modification 4 of Example 2> In Modification 1 of Embodiment 2, it is explained that the correction value calculated by the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 is used for correction by adding the evaluation values, so that the correction value is located at a position near the start position of the conveyance. When there is a waiting area, the maximum correction value is calculated, but it is not limited to this.

本變化例之修正值就被用於藉由評估值之加算而進行之修正之點,與實施例2之變化例1之修正值相同。然而,本變化例之修正值就於在搬運之開始位置之附近之位置存在待機場所之情形下,算出為較於在該附近之位置不存在待機場所之情形下算出之修正值為高之值之點,與實施例2之變化例1之修正值不同。The correction value in this variation is used for the correction point by adding the evaluation values, and is the same as the correction value in variation 1 of Embodiment 2. However, the correction value in this variation is calculated as a higher value when there is a waiting area near the start position of the transfer than when there is no waiting area nearby. This point is different from the correction value in Modification 1 of Embodiment 2.

因此,控制裝置100之產生部120於藉由待機場所旗標而顯示不存在待機場所之情形下,例如,將令預設之正的常數C1與準備等待時間相加而得之值之倒數設為修正值。將正的常數C1與準備等待時間相加乃因即便準備等待時間為「0」分鐘,亦可算出修正值。Therefore, when the waiting place flag indicates that there is no waiting place, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 sets the reciprocal of the value obtained by adding the preset positive constant C1 to the preparation waiting time as Correction value. The positive constant C1 is added to the preparation waiting time because the correction value can be calculated even if the preparation waiting time is "0" minutes.

針對於此,控制裝置100之產生部120於藉由待機場所旗標而顯示存在待機場所之情形下,例如,藉由將較值「1」為小之預設之正的常數C2乘以準備等待時間,而將準備等待時間修正為較修正前為短之時間。之後,產生部120將令正的常數C1與經修正之準備等待時間相加而得之值之倒數設為修正值。如此,若準備等待時間之長度相同,則將於在搬運之開始位置之附近之位置存在待機場所之情形下算出之修正值算出為較於在該附近之位置不存在待機場所之情形下算出之修正值為高。In response to this, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 prepares, for example, by multiplying the preset positive constant C2, which is smaller than the value “1”, when the waiting place flag indicates the existence of the waiting place. Waiting time, and correct the preparation waiting time to be shorter than before the correction. Thereafter, the generation unit 120 sets the reciprocal of the value obtained by adding the positive constant C1 and the corrected preparation waiting time as a correction value. In this way, if the length of the preparation waiting time is the same, the correction value calculated in the case where there is a waiting place in the vicinity of the starting position of the transfer is compared with the correction value calculated in the case where there is no waiting place in the vicinity. The correction value is high.

之後,控制裝置100之產生部120與實施例2之變化例1同樣地,藉由利用正的加權係數將算出之修正值進行加權,將經加權之修正值與評估值相加,而修正評估值。Thereafter, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 weights the calculated correction value with a positive weighting coefficient and adds the weighted correction value to the evaluation value, similarly to the first modification of the second embodiment, thereby correcting the evaluation. value.

於本變化例中,說明了控制裝置100之產生部120於在搬運之開始位置之附近之位置存在待機場所之情形下,算出較於在該附近之位置不存在待機場所之情形下算出之修正值為高之修正值。然而,不限定於此,產生部120可於在該附近之位置存在待機場所之情形下,算出較於不存在待機場所之情形下算出之修正值為低之修正值。In this variation, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 calculates a correction when there is a waiting place at a position near the start position of the transportation, compared with a correction calculated when there is no waiting place at the nearby position. The value is a high correction value. However, it is not limited to this, and the generation unit 120 may calculate a correction value that is lower than the correction value calculated when there is no waiting place at the nearby position.

因此,控制裝置100之產生部120於藉由待機場所旗標而顯示不存在待機場所之情形下,例如,將令預設之常數C3與準備等待時間相加而得之值設為修正值。針對於此,產生部120於藉由待機場所旗標而顯示存在待機場所之情形下,藉由將較值「1」為小之預設之正的常數C4乘以準備等待時間,而將準備等待時間修正為較修正前為短之時間。其次,產生部120將令常數C3與經修正之準備等待時間相加而得之值設為修正值。如此,若準備等待時間之長度相同,則將於在搬運之開始位置之附近之位置存在待機場所之情形下算出之修正值算出為較於在該附近之位置不存在待機場所之情形下算出之修正值為低。之後,產生部120藉由利用正的加權係數將算出之修正值進行加權,自評估值減去經加權之修正值,而修正評估值。Therefore, when the waiting place flag indicates that there is no waiting place, the generation unit 120 of the control device 100 sets the value obtained by adding the preset constant C3 and the preparation waiting time as the correction value. In response to this, when the waiting place flag indicates that the waiting place exists, the generating unit 120 multiplies the preset positive constant C4, which is smaller than the value “1”, by the preparation waiting time. The waiting time has been corrected to be shorter than before. Next, the generation unit 120 sets the value obtained by adding the constant C3 and the corrected preparation waiting time as a correction value.
