LOGISTICS APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING EMPTY/FULL STATE OF LOGISTICS APPARATUS

摘要

The invention relates to the field of logistics, and discloses a logistics apparatus and a method for identifying empty/full state of the logistics apparatus, which efficiently and accurately realizes automatic recognition of empty and full state. The invention includes: a base and side plates at four sides; a foldable mechanism being provided between the base and each side plate so that the side plates can be folded toward the base; and a short-range wireless transmitter module and a short-range wireless receiver module being respectively disposed on the base and at least one side plate; the short-range wireless transmitter module is configured to transmit a wireless signal indicating the identification of the logistics apparatus; and an arbiter, configured to determine whether the short-range wireless receiver module can currently receive the identifier transmitted by the short-range wireless transmitting module, and if yes, outputting an electrical signal indicating an empty state, otherwise, outputting an electrical signal indicating a full state.
