In a specific embodiment, the terminal 50 can include a code machine, so that a staff member located at the sorting workstation 30 can confirm the identification mark (such as a one-dimensional bar code) of the product through the terminal device 50, and The terminal 50 instructs the control system 40 to give the robot 10 an order task.
為使本創作的創作概念更為本領域人士理解，接下來將以一實際範例說明本創作的訂單分揀系統的運作：In order to make the creative concept of this creation more understandable by the people in the field, the operation of the order sorting system of this creation will be explained by a practical example:
於一物流中心的場域中，其分揀工作站30放置有複數個待分揀的商品，且在每一該商品上都印刷著條碼作為辨識標記。In the field of a logistics center, the sorting station 30 is provided with a plurality of items to be sorted, and a barcode is printed on each of the items as an identification mark.
進行訂單處理作業時，位於該分揀工作站30的工作人員利用該終端機50(如條碼機)來掃描每一該商品上的條碼，該終端機50確認該商品之該辨識標記後，指示該控制系統40給予該機器人10一訂單任務。When the order processing operation is performed, the staff at the sorting workstation 30 uses the terminal 50 (such as a barcode machine) to scan the barcode on each of the products. After confirming the identification mark of the product, the terminal 50 indicates the Control system 40 gives the robot 10 an order task.
該機器人10背負著裝載有該些商品的棧板或籠車並沿著搬運軌跡移動，使該些商品順利地移動至預設的該料箱架20，由位於該料箱架20的工作人員、或者由該機器人10將該些商品放入料箱架20中完成該訂單任務。The robot 10 carries a pallet or cage loaded with the goods and moves along the carrying trajectory, so that the goods are smoothly moved to the preset bin 20 by the staff located in the bin 20 Or the robot 10 puts the items into the bin rack 20 to complete the order task.
以上已將本新型做一詳細說明，惟以上所述者，僅爲本新型的一較佳實施例而已，當不能限定本新型實施的範圍。上述實施例說明從該分揀工作站將商品運送到該料箱架的過程，但在其他的實施例裡，亦可從該料箱架中將商品移動到該分揀工作站，即，當該機器人10接收該第一訂單任務後，亦可沿著該搬運軌跡移動至該料箱架20以將存放在該料箱架20的一第一儲存空間的商品運送至該分揀工作站30的一第二儲存空間中。The present invention has been described in detail above, but the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is not limited. The above embodiment illustrates the process of transporting merchandise from the sorting station to the bin rack, but in other embodiments, merchandise may also be moved from the bin rack to the sorting station, ie, when the robot After receiving the first order task, 10 may also move to the magazine rack 20 along the handling trajectory to transport the goods stored in a first storage space of the magazine rack 20 to the first of the sorting workstations 30. Two storage spaces.
綜上，凡依本新型申請範圍所作的均等變化與修飾等，皆應仍屬本新型的專利涵蓋範圍內。In summary, all changes and modifications made in accordance with the scope of this new application shall remain within the scope of this new patent.
