拆零分拣***
相关申请的交叉引用
本申请要求于2020年12月22日提交中国专利局的申请号为202023126405X、名称为“一种总拣分播***”的中国专利申请的优先权，其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请涉及物流技术领域，尤其是涉及一种拆零分拣***。
背景技术
目前多品种多订单处理面临较大的技术难题，特别是成千上万个品种对应每天成千上万个订单，每个订单又同时有几百上千个品种，产生百万数量级的订单行，要合并成万数量级包装箱，这种处理难度前所未见。
当前物流量达到这种量级的是电商行业和快递行业，但这两个行业的技术要求相对简单。电商行业有相同的多品种和多订单，但单个订单品种少，一个品种出库一次可以完成一批订单，一大批订单按少量线路装袋或装车，没有货物组合的要求，常用总拣分播解决拣货和分拣的问题。快递行业中的快递中转与电商类似，百万级的货物先按线路分包裹、拆包裹，再按线路建包裹，一件货物不需要与其他特定的货物建立联系，常用高速分拣机解决分拣的问题，其中无论是分线路还是建包裹，货物在库内流转过程中是独立的。
当每个订单内含有几百个品种时，用总拣分播方式，将有百万级的订单行的货物，交错转运到数万个订单箱中，转运路线将极其复杂，整体分拣效率较低。若用高速分拣机每日处理百万级订单行，分拣到上万个订单箱中，出口太多，即使用最快的交叉带分拣机也将非常庞大，整体分拣效率较低。因此，现有的拆零分拣***存在结构复杂、占地面积大、整体分拣效率较低的问题。

具体实施方式
下面将结合实施例对本申请的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述，显然，所描述的实施 例是本申请一部分实施例，而不是全部的实施例。基于本申请中的实施例，本领域普通技术人员在没有做出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例，都属于本申请保护的范围。
目前现有的拆零分拣***存在结构复杂、占地面积大、整体分拣效率较低的问题。基于此，本申请实施例提供的一种拆零分拣***，可以简化结构，减少占地面积，提高整体分拣效率。
为便于对本实施例进行理解，下面对本申请实施例所公开的一种拆零分拣***进行详细介绍。
本申请实施例提供了一种拆零分拣***，该拆零分拣***可用于任意产品的拆零分拣，实际应用中，可以应用于诸如箱式货物、托盘货物以及软包装的货物等，可以应用于如药品、食品、服装等任何需要拆零分拣的行业。
本申请实施例提供的拆零分拣***，包括至少一个主输送单元和多个分拣模块，至少一个主输送单元与多个分拣模块呈矩阵式交叉设置，且至少一个主输送单元位于多个分拣模块的上方或下方；每个主输送单元的边侧设置有多个拣取站，每个分拣模块与数个拣取站邻接；主输送单元用于输送载有待拆零拣取的货物的第一承载容器；拣取站用于按照订单需求从相应的主输送单元上输送的第一承载容器中拣取所需数量货物；分拣模块用于对邻接的拣取站拣取出的货物进行分拣。
本申请实施例提供的拆零分拣***，采用的是矩阵式交叉配合总拣分播的方式，多个分拣模块可以分担数万个订单，每个分拣模块的订单数减少，出库分拣压力降低，整体结构简单，占地少；每个分拣模块邻接数个拣取站，拣取站拣取出的订单行无需交错转运，订单行分拣线路简单，从而实现了多个分拣模块的分拣能力汇总，提高了整体分拣效率。
在一些可能的实施例中，如图1至图4所示，上述主输送单元包括主输送线11和拣取暂存线13，主输送线11位于分拣模块的上方，主输送线11用于输送载有待拆零拣取的货物的第一承载容器；拣取暂存线13位于主输送线11的一侧或者两侧，主输送线11上的第一承载容器可以被移载至拣取暂存线13供拣取站2进行所需数量货物的拣取，载有拣取完剩余的货物的第二承载容器在拣取暂存线13上暂存或者被移载至主输送线11上带走，主输送线11还用于输送载有拣取完剩余的货物的第二承载容器以及带离拣取完的空承载容器。
需要说明的是，虽然图1至图4中，主输送线11有2条且并排设置，拣取暂存线13也有2条，且分别并排设置在主输送线11两侧，拣取暂存线13仅存在于拣取站2附近的位置，但在实际应用中，可以根据对分拣效率的要求以及对处理量的要求，对主输送线11的条数、拣取暂存线13的条数以及位置进行设置。
在一些可能的实施例中，上述主输送单元上设置有横向移载装置，横向移载装置被配 置为使第一承载容器和第二承载容器在主输送线11与拣取暂存线13之间进行移载变换。横向移载装置可以设置在主输送线11和/或拣取暂存线13上，横向移载装置可以为摆轮、滑块、滚筒等任意本领域技术人员知晓的能够在输送线上换向输送的物流移载装置。
在一些可能的实施例中，如图1至图4所示，上述拆零拣取***还包括副输送线12，副输送线12用于将拣取完的空承载容器带离拆零拣取***。在实际应用中，周转箱、托盘类的空承载容器可以放在主输送线11上进行回环入库，而纸箱类的空承载容器进入副输送线12进行收集。
可选地，如图4所示，副输送线12可以位于主输送单元上方。
在一种可能的实现方式中，拣取站2采用人工拣取方式，如图4所示，拣取站2包括电子显示屏23，电子显示屏23用于显示待拣出货物的货物信息，以供操作人员进行所需数量货物的拣取。待拣出货物的货物信息可以是待拣出货物的品类及数量等信息，操作人员可以根据电子显示屏23上显示的品类、数量等信息进行拣取。
在另一种可能的实现方式中，拣取站2采用机械手拣取方式，拣取站2包括与上位机连接的机械手，机械手用于按照上位机发送的拣取指令进行所需数量货物的拣取。机械手拣取时，无需显示屏23，机械手执行上位机发出的控制命令(即拣取指令)，控制命令例如包括进行几次拣取动作以及对应拣取的数量等。
在一些可能的实施例中，如图1、图2和图4所示，拣取站2与分拣模块的邻接处设置有用于传递货物的转运输送设备21。转运输送设备21可以为皮带输送机、滚筒输送机等本领域技术人员知晓的能够用于输送货物的运输设备。
在一些可能的实施例中，分拣模块包括分拣设备和拣出带走装置，分拣设备用于将拣取站2拣出的货物分拣到指定位置或者指定容器中，拣出带走装置用于将分拣设备按订单分拣完成的货物带走。如图1至图4所示，分拣设备包括分拣轨道、分拣小车311和多个格口313，每个格口313内放置有与订单对应的订单容器314；分拣小车311在分拣轨道上移动，分拣小车311用于接收从拣取站2转运来的货物，并将货物派发至对应格口313的订单容器314中，拣出带走装置用于将按订单分拣完成的货物及其订单容器314带走。
可选地，如图1至图3所示，上述分拣设备为环形分拣设备31，分拣轨道为环形分拣轨道，拣取站2与环形分拣设备31之间通过转运输送设备21传递拣出的货物，人工或者机械手拣取的货物放到转运输送设备21上，由转运输送设备21将货物传递至环形分拣设备31的分拣小车311上。如图4所示，环形分拣轨道上设置有与对应格口313连接的滑槽312；分拣小车311在环形分拣轨道上循环移动，载有货物的分拣小车311移动到对应格口313时，通过对应格口313处的滑槽312将货物滑送至对应格口313的订单容器314中。每个订单容器314对应一个订单，一个订单可能需要多种品类货物，当订单所需的多种品 类货物都被拣出派发到该订单容器314时，此订单完成拣取，对应的订单容器314为满载状态，即分拣完成的带有货物的订单容器314。
上述环形分拣设备31可以是交叉带分拣形式，也可以是托盘自滑、托盘反转等任意形式。需要说明的是，虽然本实施例中分拣轨道为环形分拣轨道，但实际应用中也可以采用直线往复的分拣轨道等任意形状的分拣轨道，此处不做限制。
对于分拣完成的带有货物的订单容器314，有多种带出方式，本申请实施例提供了以下两种可选的带出方式：
方式一，拆零分拣***中的拣出带走装置包括拣出输送线5和至少一台移载设备4，移载设备4用于将分拣完成的带有货物的订单容器314移载至拣出输送线5，并将空订单容器314运送至不含订单容器314的格口313。移载设备4可以为穿梭车、AGV(Automated Guided Vehicle)等，当移载设备4是穿梭车时，拣出输送线5与格口313之间设置有穿梭车轨道。
方式二，拆零分拣***中的拣出带走装置包括至少一台自导引移载设备，自导引移载设备用于将分拣完成的带有货物的订单容器314带离，并将空订单容器314运送至不含订单容器314的格口313。自导引移载设备可以是AGV。
需要说明的是，上述两种货物带出形式仅为示例，本申请的保护范围不限于此。
对于空订单容器314的补充，在一种可能的实施方式中，空订单容器314由拣出输送线5运输至接受补空订单容器任务的移载设备4处，移载设备4在拣出输送线5上取空订单容器314，并运送至不含订单容器314的格口313。在另一种可能的实施方式中，某空闲位置设置有空订单容器暂存处，当自导引移载设备接收到补空订单容器任务时，自导引移载设备去空订单容器314暂存处取空订单容器314进行补充。
在一种实施方式中，如图1和图2所示，上述拆零分拣***包括多条主输送线11和多台环形分拣设备31，多条主输送线11与多台环形分拣设备31交叉呈“十字”设置，如主输送线11纵向设置，被拣出的货物置于环形分拣设备31后被横向带走进行分拣，在主输送线11与环形分拣设备31的交叉处设置拣取站2。这样使得待分拣货物可以通过任一主输送线11到达任一环形分拣设备31，即每条主输送线11供给的每一种待拆零拣取的货物可以被分拣到任意环形分拣设备31的任意位置或任意订单容器314，极大的提高了拣取的效率和便捷性。
在一些可能的实施例中，如图4所示，从俯视角度看，上述分拣模块位于主输送单元下方，环形分拣轨道的长边与主输送单元交叉设置。如图2和图3所示，在一种实施方式中，环形分拣设备31的环线有两个长边与主输送线11交叉，其中一个长边对应设置有滑槽312和格口313，另一个长边仅在与主输送线11的交叉处设置拣取站2；对于两相邻的 环形分拣设备31，其中一台环形分拣设备31上设置滑槽312、格口313的第一长边与另一台环形分拣设备31上设置滑槽312、格口313的第二长边相邻，第一长边与第二长边之间设置拣出输送线5，两相邻的环形分拣设备31共用一条拣出输送线5。
考虑到待分拣的货物可能为易碎品的情况，在一些可能的实施例中，拆零分拣***还包括至少一个第一流利架，载有待分拣易碎品的第三承载容器被运送至相应的第一流利架上，以供操作人员进行人工分拣。对于需要分拣的易碎品，不进入主输送单元，直接进入第一流利架进行人工分拣。
考虑到拣选完之后订单容器无法自动合盖封口的情况，在一些可能的实施例中，拆零分拣***还包括至少一个第二流利架，分拣完成的带有货物的订单容器314中的异常订单容器被移载至相应的第二流利架上，以供操作人员进行人工整理。异常订单容器例如为机械自动封盖时出现货物高于箱口，无法完成合盖的订单容器314，异常订单容器进入第二流利架，进行人工整理、合盖、打印标签并贴标签。
需要说明的是，上述第一流利架和第二流利架可以是不同的流利架，也可以是同一个流利架，即载有待分拣易碎品的第三承载容器和异常订单容器可以出现在同一个流利架上，从而操作人员可以在同一个流利架上进行易碎品分拣和异常订单容器整理。
在一种可能的实现方式中，如图5所示，上述拆零拣取***设置有人工分拣区6，人工分拣区6设置有多个流利架61，流利架61既作为上述第一流利架，也作为上述第二流利架。具体地，流利架61也即先进先出货架，又称滑移式货架。立体库的多个出库线分别与每个流利架61和每个主输送线11连接，拣出输送线5穿过流利架61所在区域(即人工分拣区6)。这样载有待拆零拣取的普通货物的第一承载容器会从立体库的出库线进入相应的主输送线11，载有待分拣易碎品的第三承载容器会从立体库的出库线进入相应的流利架61进行人工分拣；流利架61上还可以设置移载设备，移载设备将拣出输送线5上的异常订单容器移载至相应的流利架61上进行人工整理，盒盖封口。
综上，本申请实施例提供的拆零拣取***，整体结构简单，占地少，将多套分拣模块的分拣能力汇总，提高了整体分拣效率，同时能够平衡各条主输送线上的流量，还能够实现易碎品的拣选以及异常订单容器的整理。
为了便于理解上述拆零拣取***的工作流程，本申请实施例还提供了一种拆零分拣方法，该方法应用于该拆零分拣***。参见图6所示的一种拆零分拣方法的流程示意图，该方法主要包括如下步骤S602至步骤S606：
步骤S602，将载有待拆零拣取的货物的第一承载容器通过主输送单元输送至相应的拣取站。
步骤S604，在拣取站按照订单需求从第一承载容器中拣取所需数量货物。
步骤S606，被拣取出的货物通过相应的分拣模块完成分拣。
本申请实施例提供的拆零分拣方法，采用的是矩阵式交叉配合总拣分播的方式，多个分拣模块可以分担数万个订单，每个分拣模块的订单数减少，出库分拣压力降低，整体结构简单，占地少；每个分拣模块邻接数个拣取站，拣取站拣取出的订单行无需交错转运，订单行分拣线路简单，从而实现了多个分拣模块的分拣能力汇总，提高了整体分拣效率。
进一步地，上述主输送单元包括主输送线和拣取暂存线，在上述步骤S606之后，上述方法还包括：载有拣取完剩余的货物的第二承载容器在拣取暂存线上暂存或者通过主输送线带离。
在一些可能的实施例中，对于每种货物，可以在拣取站按照多个订单的需求从第一承载容器中多次拣取所需数量货物，多次被拣取出的货物依次进入相应的分拣模块进行分拣。例如，一种货物由主输送线运送至拣取站附近，有多个订单对该货物有不同数量的需求，则该货物在拣取站按不同订单的需求进行多次拣取，拣取后，与订单对应数量的货物被分拣到对应订单的预设位置。
在一些可能的实施例中，上述方法还包括扫码复核流程，扫码复核流程可以设置于拣取站拣取之后且进入相应的分拣模块之前，或者相应的分拣模块完成分拣之后且分拣完成的货物被带走之前，或者分拣完成的货物被带走之后。基于此，上述方法还包括：在预设时间点进行扫码复核，该预设时间点包括拣取站拣取之后且进入相应的分拣模块之前，或者相应的分拣模块完成分拣之后且分拣完成的货物被带走之前，或者分拣完成的货物被带走之后。
应注意到：相似的标号和字母在下面的附图中表示类似项，因此，一旦某一项在一个附图中被定义，则在随后的附图中不需要对其进行进一步定义和解释。
另外，在本申请实施例的描述中，除非另有明确的规定和限定，术语“安装”、“相连”、“连接”应做广义理解，例如，可以是固定连接，也可以是可拆卸连接，或一体地连接；可以是机械连接，也可以是电连接；可以是直接相连，也可以通过中间媒介间接相连，可以是两个元件内部的连通。对于本领域的普通技术人员而言，可以具体情况理解上述术语在本申请中的具体含义。
在本申请的描述中，需要说明的是，术语“中心”、“上”、“下”、“左”、“右”、“竖直”、“水平”、“内”、“外”等指示的方位或位置关系为基于附图所示的方位或位置关系，仅是为了便于描述本申请和简化描述，而不是指示或暗示所指的装置或元件必须具有特定的方位、以特定的方位构造和操作，因此不能理解为对本申请的限制。此外，术语“第一”、“第二”、“第三”仅用于描述目的，而不能理解为指示或暗示相对重要性。
最后应说明的是：以上各实施例仅用以说明本申请的技术方案，而非对其限制；尽管参照前述各实施例对本申请进行了详细的说明，本领域的普通技术人员应当理解：其依然可以对前述各实施例所记载的技术方案进行修改，或者对其中部分或者全部技术特征进行等同替换；而这些修改或者替换，并不使相应技术方案的本质脱离本申请各实施例技术方案的范围。
