step S201, according to the level distribution of the workstations and the item types of the picking tasks, clustering the picking tasks into a plurality of collection sheets, wherein the number of the collection sheets is consistent with the level number of the workstations, and each collection sheet comprises a plurality of picking tasks.
One application scenario of the invention is a book logistics center which receives picking tasks of book stores in the district, and a central warehouse (namely, a publishing company supplies books to the book logistics center to serve as a stock) which is arranged at the vertical position of the book logistics centerThe warehouse has 16 work stations, which are distributed on two layers of the stereoscopic warehouse, and each layer has 8 work stations. Thereby clustering the sorting tasks of stores as Set1、Set2The picking tasks of any two library stores in each set have high relevance, so that the bin for loading the same kind of books can only serve one layer of work stations as far as possible, namely, the picking tasks needing the same or similar picking tasks in the library are concentrated on the work stations in the same layer for picking, and the picking efficiency of transportation equipment (such as a multi-layer shuttle) is maximized.
Step S202, the multiple picking tasks are mapped into feature vectors according to the article types of the multiple picking tasks, and the article types are inventory articles and central warehouse delivery articles.
The feature vector corresponding to the picking task of each library store comprises all SKUs (stock keeping units including SKU) in the logistics center1~skunN types of books), the vector element is 0/1 variable, i.e. if there is a single item sku in the picking task1The element sku in the feature vector corresponding to the picking task1Is 1, if not, the element sku in the feature vector corresponding to the picking task is1The value of (d) is 0.
And step S203, clustering a plurality of picking tasks into clusters according to the characteristic vectors, wherein the number of the clusters is consistent with that of the workstations.

Step S206, determining the picking sequence of the inventory items according to the type and the quantity of the corresponding inventory items in the picking task, the storage position of the inventory items in the stereoscopic warehouse and the current position of the multi-layer shuttle.
Specifically, for the same workstation, in the case where the number of types of stock items picked up to the workstation is greater than the threshold number, the picking operation of the multi-deck shuttle corresponding to the workstation is stopped.
The above setting mainly considers the accommodating capacity of the workstation and the carrying route occupation condition of the multi-layer shuttle, and for any workstation, if the number of turnover boxes (i.e. the number of types of inventory items) going to the workstation is higher than the threshold number, the task overstock of the shutdown and the elevator is increased sharply, the carrying route of the shutdown is easy to be blocked, and the picking efficiency is limited.
According to a specific implementation mode of the embodiment of the invention, if a bin of a corresponding book of the device needs to be taken out of a warehouse for sorting, in the process of sorting through a multilayer shuttle vehicle, a storage position with the depth of 1 at the approach lane port is preferentially selected; if the bin does not need to be taken out of the warehouse for sorting, the storage position with the depth of 2 at the road junction is preferably selected.
Specifically, the multi-layer shuttle cars in the stereoscopic warehouse can be set as a combination of the shuttle cars and the corresponding layer-changing elevators, and can also be set as a shuttle car configured for each layer of goods shelves of the stereoscopic warehouse, so that the sorting efficiency is further improved.
And step S207, picking the corresponding inventory items in the picking tasks to the picking grooves corresponding to the picking tasks through the multi-layer shuttle vehicle according to the picking sequence.
According to the embodiment of the invention, the book demand of the picking tasks in the corresponding clusters of the workstation is weighted; and according to the weighting result, comprehensively considering the corresponding storage position of the bin of the book to be picked in the stereoscopic warehouse, and determining the picking sequence of the books to be picked at each workstation by combining the current position of the multilayer shuttle. Through the setting, the corresponding picking sequence is determined according to each constraint condition, the picking task balance of the workstation is favorably improved, and the picking efficiency is improved.
And step S208, after the picking slots of the workstations corresponding to the clusters are respectively matched with one in-cluster picking task, putting the remaining in-cluster picking tasks into the pool to be distributed.
If L > n, the corresponding workstation in the cluster can not synchronously complete the picking of all the picking tasks in the cluster, only one picking task is matched with each picking slot preferentially, and then the picking tasks in the rest clusters are placed into the pool to be allocated.
In step S209, it is determined whether or not there is a vacant sorting slot.
Step S210, determining a target picking task from the pool to be distributed to be matched with the vacant picking slot according to the relevance of the item type. And after the matching is completed, the step S205 is carried out to carry out the corresponding picking operation.
And if so, matching the picking task with the highest relevance with the vacant picking slot according to the relevance between the picking task in the cluster corresponding to the vacant picking slot and the item type corresponding to the picking task in the pool to be allocated, thereby improving the utilization rate of the workstations.
According to the technical scheme of the embodiment of the invention, the picking tasks are matched with the picking grooves of the workstation, wherein the types of the items of the picking tasks are stock items and central warehouse delivery items; the method comprises the steps of conveying corresponding central bin delivered articles in a picking task to a picking groove corresponding to the picking task, conveying corresponding inventory articles in the picking task to the picking groove corresponding to the picking task through conveying equipment, and finishing the technical means of picking the articles in the picking task at the picking groove, so that the technical problems of human resource consumption, high picking cost and low picking efficiency in the prior art are solved, human resources are saved, the picking cost is reduced, the picking operation of the inventory articles and the central bin delivered articles is coordinated, and the technical effect of remarkably improving the picking efficiency of the articles in the picking task is improved.
