    摘要: The present disclosure provides a warehousing system, a goods collection method and device, a goods-container-moving device, a control terminal, and a storage medium. In the warehousing system, a shelving unit is provided with storage spaces configured to place storage-goods container. When not all the storage spaces on the shelving unit store storage-goods container, or a storage-goods container is removed from a storage space by the goods-container-moving device, there may be a free storage space. In this case, in the collection process, under the control of the control terminal, the goods-container-moving device temporarily stores collection-goods containers that completes picking of goods in the free storage space of the shelving unit. That is, the storage spaces on the shelving unit can be used to both place the storage-goods container and temporarily store the collection-goods container. Therefore, in the collection process, it is not necessary to set a specific temporary storage area or temporary shelving unit to temporarily store goods, which effectively improves the space utilization of the warehousing system. In addition, there is no limitation on the size of the temporary storage area or the temporary shelving unit. Therefore, collection operations of a larger quantity of order tasks can be performed, thereby improving the efficiency of warehouse collection operations.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a sorting robot and a sorting method. The sorting method is applicable to the foregoing sorting robot, where the sorting robot is configured to deliver specific goods to be sorted to a specific sorting position, and a sorting mechanism carrying the specific goods to be sorted corresponds to the specific sorting position. The sorting method includes: S130: the sorting mechanism receiving goods to be sorted; S140: the sorting mechanism being raised or lowered to a height corresponding to the sorting position under drive of a lifting mechanism; and S160: the sorting mechanism performing an action to deliver the goods to be sorted that is placed on the sorting mechanism to the corresponding sorting position. According to the foregoing sorting robot and sorting method, the coordination among the chassis, the lifting mechanism, and the sorting mechanism realizes automation of goods sorting, reduces cost of the goods sorting, and greatly improves efficiency of the goods sorting. In addition, the sorting mechanism is moved to different heights under drive of the lifting mechanism, so that the goods to be sorted can be put into sorting positions having different heights.
