A method for picking and placing a material box and a material box robot

Abstract

The invention discloses a material box picking and placing method, comprising: selecting an available material box robot according to the information of the material box; controlling the material box robot to carry a shelf suitable for the material box; controlling the material box robot to carry all the material boxes The material box is stored on the shelf. The invention also discloses a material box robot. The above method of picking and placing the material box first selects the available material box robot according to the information of the material box, then controls the material box robot to carry a suitable shelf, and finally stores the material box on the shelf. This method can maximize the use of the robot through the separation of the shelf and the robot It saves the time of continuing to pick goods, and has the characteristics of fast picking and high efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of logistics handling, in particular to a method for picking and placing a material box. It also relates to a bin robot. Background technique [0002] Modern logistics systems, warehousing systems or industrial production lines have higher and higher requirements for intelligence. [0003] In intelligent warehousing systems, logistics systems or industrial production factories, the existing method of picking and placing material boxes is only suitable for material box robots with fixed storage spaces and material box robots without storage spaces. The bin robot in the storage space only performs the picking function alone, while the bin robot with a fixed storage position needs to unload each storage position after storing full goods. The disadvantages brought about by this are: the delivery speed is slow, and when multiple material boxes need to be taken out, they can only be taken out one by one, which w...

Problems solved by technology

The disadvantages brought about by this are: the delivery speed is slow, and when multiple material boxes need to be taken out, they can only be taken out one by one, which will inevitably consume a lot of time; the inventory structure is not flexible enough, and the height of each layer of the multi-layer inventory structure is fixed. Once installed on the robot, it cannot be replaced. When the robot needs to store boxes of different sizes in the storage mechanism, it will either waste space or cannot be stored in the boxes, resulting in the inability to maximize the number of boxes carried by the robot; overall Low efficiency, unable to maximize the use of bin robots and improve work efficiency

The most efficient process for a bin robot is to pick and place bins in the aisle. For a robot with inseparable shelves, the robot needs to move from the shelf area to the target point after picking up the bins. This moving distance is actually a waste of time. The ability of the robot to pick and place the bin
