The present invention relates to a device for setting order of cargo shipment, and more particularly, to a device for setting order of cargo shipment through a feedback process.
The order that cargo is loaded on a ship may be varied according to size of loaded cargo and shape of the ship. If the order of cargo shipment is not planned, shipment efficiency of cargo may become relatively low and temporal and financial damages may occur.
According to a conventional method or device for setting order of cargo shipment, the order of cargo shipment may be set according to a feed-forward method. However, if an error occurs in order of cargo shipment, the order of cargo shipment must be reset, but it may lower efficiency.
After the order of cargo shipment is set, measures for stably setting order of cargo shipment by simulating the set order of cargo shipment to give feedback.
Accordingly, the present invention has been made in an effort to solve the above-mentioned problems occurring in the prior arts, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a device for stably setting order of cargo shipment through a feedback process.
Technical objects to be achieved by the present invention are not limited to the above-described objects and other technical objects that have not been described will be evidently understood by those skilled in the art from the following description.
To achieve the above objects, the present invention provides a device for setting order of cargo shipment including: a communication unit for receiving preliminary data related to a ship and cargo from an external organization; and a control unit for receiving the preliminary data from the communication unit, wherein the control unit generates preliminary cargo shipment order data related to shipment order of the cargo on the basis of the preliminary data, simulates shipment of the cargo on the ship on the basis of the preliminary cargo shipment order data, re-generates the preliminary cargo shipment order data if the shipment of the cargo is not implemented in the ship as a result of the simulation, and sets the preliminary cargo shipment order data as determined cargo shipment order data if the shipment of the cargo is implemented in the ship as the result of the simulation.
The device for setting order of cargo shipment according to the present invention can stably set order of cargo shipment through a feedback process.
The effects of the present invention are not limited to the above-mentioned effect and further effects derivable from the detailed description of invention or claims of the present invention will be clearly understood by those skilled in the art.

The communication unit 12 (refer to
The cargo shippable zone 125 may not mean a shippable zone for all kinds of cargo. For instance, relative bulky cargo cannot be shipped in a narrow space, but small cargo can be shipped in a narrow space. That is, in order to calculate a zone for shipping cargo on the deck 120, the cargo shippable zones 125 and information on actual cargo may be required.

The information on the cargo shippable zones 125 and the data including the cargo table 200 is called a “first data”. The control unit 11 (refer to

The data containing the information on the cargo shipment zones 310, 320 and 330 is called a “second data”. The cargo shipment zones 310, 320 and 330 may be set in consideration of order of bulky cargo among the shipped cargo. The control unit 11 (refer to

The control unit 11 (refer to
If the first cargo is located on the cargo movement route 400, the first cargo may obstruct movement of the second cargo. Therefore, the cargo shipment zones 310, 320 and 330 are subdivided in consideration of the cargo movement route 400, and cargo is shipped depending on the subdivided cargo shipment zones.
For instance, the A zone 310 may be subdivided into a first A zone 311, a second A zone 312, a third A zone 313, a fourth A zone 314, and a fifth A zone 315. For instance, the B zone 320 may be subdivided into a first B zone 321, a second B zone 322, a third B zone 323, a fourth B zone 324, and a fifth B zone 325. For instance, the C zone 330 may be subdivided into a first C zone 331, a second C zone 332, a third C zone 333, a fourth C zone 334, and a fifth C zone 335.
The “subdivided cargo shipment zones” illustrated in
For instance, the “subdivided cargo shipment zones P1, P2, P3 and P4 having order of priority” include a first priority zone P1, a second priority zone P2, a third priority zone P3, and a fourth priority zone P4. The “subdivided cargo shipment zones P1, P2, P3 and P4 having order of priority” mean that order of priority is applied to the subdivided cargo shipment zones 310, 320 and 330 (refer to
If cargo is shipped in the second to fourth priority zones P2 to P4 before cargo is shipped in the first priority zone P1, it may be difficult to move cargo which must be located in the first priority zone P2. If cargo is shipped in the third and fourth priority zones P3 and P4 before cargo is shipped in the second priority zone P2, it may be difficult to move cargo which must be located in the second priority zone P2. If cargo is shipped in the fourth priority zone P4 before cargo is shipped in the third priority zone P3, it may be difficult to move cargo which must be located in the third priority zone P3.
