Warehousing access system and method

A warehousing access system, comprising:

• a control server, an access device, a carrying device, a storage container and at least one dock location;
• the access device and the carrying device communicate with the control server separately, the storage container is located in a array at a storage area and is configured to hold items;
• the control server is configured to, in response to an item operation request, determine a target storage container for operation, a first target dock location for docking the target storage container, a first target access device for taking the target storage container out, and a first target carrying device for carrying the target storage container, and send a container take-out instruction to the first target access device and a container carrying instruction to the first target carrying device;
• the first target access device is configured to, in response to the container take-out instruction, move to a current storage location of the target storage container in the rack array, take the target storage container out from the current storage location in the rack array, carry the target storage container to the first target dock location, and place the target storage container on the first target dock location;
• the first target carrying device is configured to, in response to the container carrying instruction, acquire the target storage container on the first target dock location by using a lifting mechanism of the first target carrying device, and carry the target storage container from the first target dock location to a workstation for operation;
• the control server is further configured to, in response to an operation complete instruction, determine a target storage location for storing the target storage container, a second target dock location for docking the target storage container, a second target access device for storing the target storage container, and a second target carrying device for carrying the target storage container, and send a container storing instruction to the second target access device and the container carrying instruction to the second target carrying device;
• the second target carrying device is further configured to, in response to the container carrying instruction, carry the target storage container from the workstation to the second target dock location, and place the target storage container on the second target dock location;
• and
• the second target access device is further configured to, in response to the container storing instruction, acquire the target storage container on the second target dock location, carry the target storage container from the second target dock location to the target storage location in the rack array, store the target storage container at the target storage location in the rack array;
• wherein the carrying device is a carrying robot comprising a lifting mechanism, and the access device is one of a stacking robot or a forklift;
• wherein an idle dock location closest to the current storage location selected from at least one idle dock location is determined as the first target dock location, an idle dock location closest to the target storage location selected from at least one idle dock location is determined as the second target dock location, the dock location is a transfer station of the storage area and a picking area, and the first target dock location and the second target dock location are same or different locations;
• wherein the carrying device is configured to only run in the picking area, and the access device is configured to only run in the storage area;
• and
• wherein the dock location is provided with a physical correction apparatus to correct at least one of a location or an angle of the target storage container placed at the dock location.
