Embodiment

[0031] This embodiment provides a warehouse management system with multi-guided vehicle scheduling and distribution functions, including a central management system and at least one autonomous guided vehicle:

[0032] The central management system mainly includes dispatching and distribution units and inventory management units. The inventory management unit reads the bill of materials, obtains the type of the material, the position of the shelf in the warehouse, the position of the material on the shelf, and the inventory of the material, and sends this information to the dispatching and allocating unit. An environmental map of the entire warehouse is stored in the scheduling allocation unit. The scheduling and distribution unit selects the corresponding type of guided vehicle (high-level picking type, low-level picking type or autonomous forklift) according to the type of material (scattered material or pallet material) and the position of the shelf in the warehouse as well ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a warehouse management system with a multi-guide-vehicle dispatching and distribution function. The warehouse management system comprises a central management system and guide vehicles. The central management system reads material lists to obtain the inventory and position information of materials, selects appropriate guide vehicle types and number according to task quantity and the material positions, distributes the traveling routes for the guide vehicles, and selects the guide vehicles and distributes material input and output tasks according to the shortest time principle. The guide vehicles travel in a warehouse along the routes distributed by the central management system and have functions of self-positioning and barrier avoiding. The guide vehicles complete material information scanning, map information displaying and task displaying and receiving through vehicular interaction equipment and transmit guide vehicle state information to the central management system. The warehouse management system has the advantages that the guide vehicles are dispatched according to the comprehensive material information and the state information of the guide vehicles, the guide vehicles travel along the distributed routes to target positions to complete material input and output, a traditional warehouse management manner is optimized, and warehouse management efficiency is increased.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of warehouse management systems, in particular to a warehouse management system with the function of dispatching and allocating multiple guided vehicles. Background technique [0002] With the continuous improvement of factory automation level and modern logistics technology, the requirements for warehouse management system are getting higher and higher. The efficiency of the warehouse management system directly affects the operating efficiency of the enterprise. Especially for manufacturing enterprises, a large number of parts are put in and out of the warehouse every day. Only relying on the traditional manual distribution method to complete the reading of the bill of materials and the corresponding materials in and out of the warehouse is inefficient. The automated transformation of warehouse management can improve the efficiency of materials entering and leaving the warehouse, making the production line...
