Abstract: This application relates to a fork apparatus and a warehousing robot. The fork apparatus includes a fork body, including a base, a tray supported on the base, and a telescopic assembly, where the tray is supported on the base, and the telescopic assembly includes a connection member that is stretchable or retractable relative to the tray along a goods moving direction; and a goods retrieval mechanism, where the goods retrieval mechanism is detachably mounted to the connection member. The goods retrieval mechanism includes: a first goods retrieval mechanism, where the first goods retrieval mechanism includes a first goods retrieval member that operates on goods in a first manner; or a second goods retrieval mechanism, where the second goods retrieval mechanism includes a second goods retrieval member that operates on goods in a second manner different from the first manner.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a control method for goods retrievement and storage, a control apparatus, and a transport robot. The control method for goods retrievement includes: receiving a retrievement instruction, and acquiring locating information of target goods according to the retrievement instruction; moving a transport robot to a target position according to the locating information; obtaining status information of the target goods and/or position relationship information between a carrying apparatus and the target goods; and adjusting a position and posture of the carrying apparatus according to the status information and/or the position relationship information, and causing the carrying apparatus to take out the target goods.

Abstract: A method for controlling a warehouse robot to store or retrieve an inventory item on a shelf. The method includes: receiving an instruction to transport the inventory item, obtaining a position of the inventory item from the received instruction, directing the warehouse robot to move to the location of the inventory item, detecting a position shift of the inventory item away from the obtained position based on the location and the orientation of the inventory item, adjusting a position of the warehouse robot to compensate for the position shift, retrieving the inventory item from storage, and transporting the inventory item to a destination.

Abstract: A transport robot may include a body, a lifting assembly arranged on the body, and a first climbing assembly arranged on the lifting assembly and located on only one side of the body in a horizontal direction. The lifting assembly is configured to drive the first climbing assembly to ascend or descend. The first climbing assembly is configured to be docked with a second climbing assembly of a rack after being driven to ascend, and to climb along the second climbing assembly in a vertical direction.

Abstract: A method for retrieving an inventory item based on a handling robot, where the handling robot includes: a storage frame; and a material handling device installed on the storage frame, and including a telescopic arm and a manipulator installed to the telescopic arm; and the method for retrieving an inventory item includes: driving, by the telescopic arm, the manipulator to extend to a preset position of warehouse shelf along a preset horizontal reference line; loading, by the manipulator that is remained on the reference line, the inventory item located in the preset position; driving, by the telescopic arm, the manipulator loaded with the inventory item to move to the storage frame along the reference line; and unloading, by the manipulator that is remained on the reference line, the inventory item to the storage frame.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a goods taking mechanism and a carrying device. The goods taking mechanism includes a fixed member, a first clamping plate, a second clamping plate, and a driving assembly, where the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate are oppositely mounted on the fixed member and are connected to the driving assembly, and the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate are movable relative to the fixed member under the action of the driving assembly, to act on two opposing sides of a to-be-moved object. The goods taking mechanism of the present disclosure can clamp to-be-moved objects of different sizes, which helps reduce the distance between the adjacent to-be-moved objects.

Abstract: The technical field of intelligent warehousing is related, and an intelligent warehousing system, a processing terminal, a warehouse robot, and an intelligent warehousing method are disclosed. Where the intelligent warehousing system (100) includes: a warehouse robot (10) and a material fetching device (20); the warehouse robot includes a first warehouse robot (11) and/or a second warehouse robot (12); the first warehouse robot is configured to receive a first scheduling instruction, and handle a material box to a first target position according to the first scheduling instruction; the second warehouse robot is configured to receive a second scheduling instruction, and handle a portable shelf to a second target position according to the second scheduling instruction; and the material fetching device is configured to receive a material fetching instruction, and fetch a material from the material box and/or the portable shelf according to the material fetching instruction.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for controlling a warehouse robot to store and fetch inventory materials. The method includes: instructing a material handling device to fetch a second inventory material located in the front row, and placing the second inventory material on a first tray; instructing the material handling device to fetch a first inventory material located in the back row, and placing the first inventory material on a second tray; and instructing the material handling device to return the second inventory material to the front row. By instructing the material handling device to fetch the inventory materials and storing the inventory materials in the trays, the inventory materials can be extracted from a designated shelf and stored in a warehouse, navigation is realized in a crowded warehouse filled with obstacles, and the inventory materials whose positions have been transferred can be processed.

Abstract: This application provides a method and an apparatus goods sorting, a server, a system for goods sorting, and a storage medium.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a material handling method and device, a server and a handling robot. The material handling method provided by the present embodiment includes: acquiring position information and idle storage unit information of a robot; and allocating a second handling task to the robot according to the position information, the idle storage unit information and a position of a first target included in a first handling task; where one of the first handling task and the second handling task is a material fetching task, and the other is a returning task. Thus, a handling strategy can be set flexibly, and fetching materials while returning is implemented during a material handling process, the handling efficiency of the materials is improved effectively.
