[0119] Since the vertical movement spaces of the two adjacent shelves are connected, after the logistics object is selected, the storage object can be moved from the fourth storage object channel to the fifth in the vertical movement space of the first shelf. The storage object channel is then moved to the upper shelf in the storage area.
[0120] In an embodiment of the present application, the storage area has a first storage object moving device, and the first storage object moving device is used to drive the storage object to move in the first storage object channel;
[0121] The shipping area has a second storage object moving device, and the second storage object moving device is used to drive the storage object to move in the second storage object channel;
[0122] The shipping area has a third storage object moving device, and the third storage object moving device is used to drive the storage object to move in the third storage object channel;
[0123] The receiving area has a fourth storage object moving device, and the fourth storage object moving device is used to drive the storage object to move in the fourth storage object channel.
[0124] In an embodiment of the present application, when the third storage object moving device includes a suspended cable car, the receiving area includes an unhooking device for the suspended cable car.
[0125] In the embodiment of the present application, by setting the storage object management device to include a storage area, a delivery area, and a purchase area, when the storage object cyclically moves in the first storage object channel and is selected, the storage object is controlled. The object moves from the first storage object channel through the second storage object channel and/or the third storage object channel to the collection platform, and after the logistics object in the storage object is picked by the collection platform, it passes through The fourth storage object channel is moved to the storage area, which realizes the automatic purchase, storage and delivery of goods in the warehouse, and ensures the separation of storage and picking, improves the space utilization rate of the warehouse, and also improves the delivery and picking of the warehouse And the efficiency of restocking, thereby reducing the operating cost of the automated warehouse.
[0126] It should be noted that for the method embodiments, for the sake of simple description, they are all expressed as a series of action combinations, but those skilled in the art should know that the embodiments of the present application are not subject to the described sequence of actions.

[0127] The various embodiments in this disclosure are described in a progressive manner, and each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments, and the same or similar parts between the various embodiments can be referred to each other.
[0128] Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of the embodiments of the present application may be provided as methods, devices, or computer program products. Therefore, the embodiments of the present application may adopt the form of a complete hardware embodiment, a complete software embodiment, or an embodiment combining software and hardware. Moreover, the embodiments of the present application may adopt the form of computer program products implemented on one or more computer-usable storage media (including but not limited to disk storage, CD-ROM, optical storage, etc.) containing computer-usable program codes.
[0129] The embodiments of the present application are described with reference to the flowcharts and/or block diagrams of the methods, terminal devices (systems), and computer program products according to the embodiments of the present application. It should be understood that each process and/or block in the flowchart and/or block diagram, and the combination of processes and/or blocks in the flowchart and/or block diagram can be realized by computer program instructions. These computer program instructions can be provided to the processors of general-purpose computers, special-purpose computers, embedded processors, or other programmable data processing terminal equipment to generate a machine, so that instructions executed by the processor of the computer or other programmable data processing terminal equipment A device for realizing the functions specified in a flow or multiple flows in the flowchart and/or a block or multiple blocks in the block diagram is generated.
[0130] These computer program instructions can also be stored in a computer-readable memory that can guide a computer or other programmable data processing terminal equipment to work in a specific manner, so that the instructions stored in the computer-readable memory generate instructions including the manufacture of the device The instruction device realizes the functions specified in one process or multiple processes in the flowchart and/or one block or multiple blocks in the block diagram.
[0131] These computer program instructions can also be loaded on a computer or other programmable data processing terminal equipment, so that a series of operation steps are executed on the computer or other programmable terminal equipment to generate computer-implemented processing, so that the computer or other programmable data processing terminal The instructions executed on the programming terminal device provide steps for implementing functions specified in one or more processes in the flowchart and/or one or more blocks in the block diagram.
[0132] Although the preferred embodiments of the embodiments of the present application have been described, those skilled in the art can make additional changes and modifications to these embodiments once they learn the basic creative concept. Therefore, the appended claims are intended to be interpreted as including the preferred embodiments and all changes and modifications falling within the scope of the embodiments of the present application.
[0133] Finally, it should be noted that in this article, relational terms such as first and second are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or Imply that there is any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the term "including", "including" or any other variant thereof is intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or terminal device that includes a series of elements not only includes those elements, but also includes those that are not explicitly listed. Other elements of, or also include elements inherent to this process, method, article, or terminal device. Without more restrictions, the element defined by the sentence "including a..." does not exclude the existence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or terminal device that includes the element.
[0134] The above provides a detailed introduction to the storage object management method and device provided by the present application. Specific examples are used in this article to illustrate the principles and implementation of the present application. The description of the above embodiments is only for To help understand the methods and core ideas of this application; at the same time, for those of ordinary skill in the art, according to the ideas of this application, there will be changes in the specific implementation and scope of application. In summary, this content does not Should be understood as
