1. A path planning method of a handling device, comprising:
based on position information of a target goods placement area in a truck bed and an initial position, determining a handling path corresponding to the target goods placement area, wherein the handling path comprises a first handling path, and the first handling path comprises a turn-around position and a loading-unloading position corresponding to the target goods placement area; and
sending the handling path to a target handling device, such that the target handling device, based on the first handling path, travels to the turn-around position in a forward mode, and rotates at the turn-around position, to enable a bearing assembly of the rotated target handling device to face toward the target goods placement area, and then travels, in a backward mode, to the loading-unloading position to perform goods loading or unloading operations;
wherein a travel direction of the backward mode is a direction that a device body of the target handling device points to the bearing assembly of the target handling device, and a travel direction of the forward mode is opposite to the travel direction of the backward mode.
