PACKAGE BOX RECOMMENDING METHOD AND PACKAGE BOX RECOMMENDING SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240346791 titled 'PACKAGE BOX RECOMMENDING METHOD AND PACKAGE BOX RECOMMENDING SYSTEM
The method described in the patent application involves recommending a final package box by determining the optimal packing order and location of target products in a three-dimensional virtual space.
- Obtaining the size of each target product
- Determining the packing order of target products based on decreasing volume size
- Finding the location of each target product in the virtual space to minimize volume difference between packing hexahedrons
- Generating a virtual final hexahedron including all target products
- Selecting the final package box among available options that can accommodate the virtual final hexahedron
Potential Applications: - E-commerce packaging optimization - Logistics and shipping industry - Warehouse management systems
Problems Solved: - Efficient use of space in package boxes - Reduction of wasted space in packaging - Streamlining packing processes
Benefits: - Cost savings through optimized packaging - Reduced environmental impact from efficient use of materials - Improved customer satisfaction with secure and well-packed deliveries
Commercial Applications: Title: "Optimized Package Box Recommendation System for E-commerce and Logistics" This technology can be used by e-commerce companies, logistics providers, and warehouse management systems to improve their packaging processes and reduce costs.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this method improve the efficiency of packing orders? - By determining the optimal packing order based on decreasing volume size, the method minimizes wasted space in package boxes. 2. What are the potential cost-saving benefits for businesses using this technology? - Businesses can save on packaging materials and shipping costs by efficiently utilizing available space in package boxes.
Original Abstract Submitted
a method of recommending a final package box can include obtaining a size of each of target products, determining a packing order of the target products according to decreasing volume size, determining a location of a first target product in a three-dimensional virtual space such that a volume difference between a volume of a first packing hexahedron immediately before the current packing order and a volume of a second packing hexahedron including the first target product added in the current packing order is smallest, accordingly determining a location for each of the target products in the three-dimensional virtual space, generating a virtual final hexahedron including all of the plurality of target products, and determining the final package box among available package boxes that have width, length, and height equal to or greater than that of the virtual final hexahedron.
