Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a textile retrieval system and registration system, a textile data retrieval method and registration method, a storage medium, and a method of manufacturing clothing, apparel and ornaments.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art When constructing a database for storing textile attribute information, the data items are mainly data items that can be quantitatively expressed. For example, "Yarn material", "Yarn thickness", "Woven knitting structure", "Width", "Length"
It is such an item.

Conventionally, textile users, such as apparel designers and salesmen of textile manufacturers, have searched for textiles by inputting the numerical values of the above data items into a database.

[0004] When a user of a textile such as a designer actually tries to find a target textile, he or she often makes a request for sensitivity evaluation such as "a touch with a cool touch and a prettier feeling". However,
In a conventional database composed only of data items that can be quantitatively expressed, it was not possible to search for a desired textile using kansei evaluation as a search key.

As a technique for solving such a problem, there is a technique disclosed in Japanese Patent Application No. 6-309355.
However, this technique still has problems. In other words, it is a database of the correspondence between the expression of a specific designer and the fabric, and it is only a link between the subjectivity of the specific designer and the real thing, and it was not possible to establish an objective evaluation standard for all. Also, since this database was created for individuals, every time a new designer tried to use it, he had to build a personal dictionary for that designer from scratch, and was not immediately effective. Also, since the individual's sense is not stable over time, fabrics that once thought "soft" are now "stiff"
I was skeptical, and there was a question about the use of past data.

[0006] As described above, even if the degree of kansei evaluation is simply stored in the database, the kansei evaluation of the textile is evaluated by the subjective judgment of the individual. It becomes meaningless data. In other words, if the same textile is evaluated as "having drape" or "having no drape",
After all, it is the result determined by the subjectivity of the evaluator, and there is no objective index to be used as the evaluation standard. Therefore, even if the clothing, apparel, and ornaments are manufactured using the textile selected and determined by the evaluation greatly influenced by such subjectivity, the finished apparel and clothing that all users of the textile truly demanded・ It was not easy to obtain decorative items.

[0007]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to solve the above-mentioned problems and to search for a textile based on a degree of kansei evaluation based on an objective index. It is an object of the present invention to provide a system, a method of searching for a textile, a method of registering textile data, and a recording medium.

[0008] Another object of the present invention is to select and determine a textile that is objectively adapted to the textile requested by the user of the sensibility evaluation, and use the selected textile as a material for clothing, apparel, and ornaments. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a method of manufacturing clothing, apparel, and ornaments that makes it easy to obtain the required clothing, apparel, and ornaments.

According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a textile is selected and determined by the above-described method for searching for textile data, and clothing, clothing, and ornaments are manufactured using the determined textile. Clothing
A method for manufacturing apparel and ornaments is provided.

[0016] The term "textile" as used herein refers to a fabric that can be used as a material for clothing, apparel, and ornaments, such as woven fabric, knitted fabric, artificial leather, and nonwoven fabric.

"Clothing, clothing, and ornaments" refers to clothes, hats, gloves, bags, scarves, seat covers, curtains, beddings, and the like made from the textile.

"Textile attribute data" refers to the entire data relating to textiles. For example, yarn material,
In addition to items such as yarn thickness, weaving and knitting structure, width and length, it also includes sensitivity evaluation.

"Sensitivity evaluation" refers to qualitative or general characteristics of textiles that are easily influenced by the subjectivity of the evaluator. For example, a touch feeling cool / warm corresponds to the sensitivity evaluation.

The "degree" is an index of sensitivity evaluation, and may be a two-level evaluation such as "present" or "absent", but may be "A", "B", "C", "1", "2", "3". "4"
A multi-step evaluation such as "5" or a numerical score evaluation is preferable because it can be evaluated more precisely. If an effective search cannot be performed if only qualitative properties are used as data items, it is better to use a quantitative evaluation value such as a multi-step evaluation or a score evaluation.

A "file" is data in which associated data is recorded on a recording device such as a magnetic disk or a memory. Note that the file does not always match the file managed by the operating system.

The term "output" means a general method of extracting information from a computer, such as displaying on a display, printing with a printer, or writing on a magnetic disk.

The "standard sample" refers to an actual textile sample that is associated with the value of the sensitivity evaluation data.

[0024]

FIG. 1 shows the configuration of an embodiment of the present invention.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the standard sample group 4
0 and a textile search and textile data registration device 10.

The standard sample group 40 is a set of standard samples corresponding to the degree of sensitivity evaluation. These sample groups are required for the number of combinations of the “kansei evaluation” and the “degree”. FIG. 2 shows an example of a combination of “kansei evaluation” and “degree”. In this example, there are five levels for each of the 11 types of sensitivity evaluation, and the number of combinations is 55. Therefore, 55 kinds of standard samples corresponding to each of the combinations are prepared.

The standard sample group 40 is set in advance to be used as an objective index for evaluation of sensitivity. As an example, a description will be given of a cool / warm evaluation of a touch feeling.

In the cool warm evaluation of the touch feeling,
There are five consecutive criteria: "very cool,""somewhatcool,""neutral,""somewhatwarm," and "very warm." An actual standard sample corresponding to each of the five successive standards is prepared. At this time, it is desirable that the actual standard sample is an actual standard sample corresponding to each of the five equal regions by dividing the approximate range of the state represented by the sensitivity evaluation into continuous five equal regions. Therefore, it is desirable that an evaluator who is familiar with textiles sets a standard sample. Further, the standard sample may be determined based on the opinions of many evaluators.

The textile search and textile data registration device 10 includes a keyboard, a mouse-like input device 16 for a user to input data, a display device 14 for displaying a processing result, and an output device such as a printer. 18 connected to each of the client computers 1
Server computer 20 that realizes the textile information file 22 on a storage device such as a memory or a magnetic disk, and the client computer 12 and the server computer 2
0 is connected to the LAN 30.

An example of the structure of the textile information file 22 is as shown in Table 1.

[0031]

[Table 1]

"Textile management number" is an item for storing a management number for uniquely identifying a textile to be managed.

"Sensitivity evaluation" is an item for storing the sensitivity evaluation name of the textile.

The "degree" is an item for storing the degree at which evaluation is made in the sensitivity evaluation.

"Yarn type composition" is an item for storing a name for identifying the yarn constituting the textile.

"Woven and knitting structure" is an item for storing the name of the structure when weaving or knitting the textile. In addition to the above, the attribute information of the textile may be stored such as a blending ratio, a basis weight, a woven density, a finishing density, a processing method, a photograph or moving image data reflecting the textile, and an actual sample management place.

First, a method of determining an objective evaluation by comparing with a standard sample and registering textile data will be described.

[0038] The user, for the textile to be evaluated,
The "degree" is determined for the eleven types of "kansei evaluation" shown in FIG. As an example, a cool warm with a touch feeling will be described.

When the actual textile to be evaluated is evaluated to be "slightly cool", the user compares the actual textile with a standard sample corresponding to the criteria of "slightly cool" for the cool / warm evaluation of the touch feeling. As a result of the comparison, if the user feels that the actual textile to be evaluated is warmer than the standard sample, the user next compares the neutral textile with the standard sample corresponding to “neutral”. Again, if the actual textile to be evaluated feels warmer than the standard sample, then the user compares it with the standard sample corresponding to "slightly warm". As a result of the comparison, it is determined that the touch feeling is similar. In this case, the cool / warm evaluation of the touch sensation of the textile finally becomes “somewhat warm”. Since this evaluation result is synchronized with the actual standard sample, it can be said that the evaluation is objective.

As described above, by always comparing with the standard sample, it is possible to register objectivity evaluation data with objectivity.

When inputting new textile data, "New Textile Data Input" is selected from the menu screen shown in FIG. Then, the screen transitions to a new textile data input screen shown in FIG. Here, the user inputs the degree obtained by comparing the evaluation target textile with the standard sample from the input device 16. The degree of each kansei evaluation name can be input by pressing a radio button. At the same time, the “thread type configuration”, the “woven and knitting structure”, and the “textile management No”, which are the textile design information of the textile to be evaluated, are input.

The input record is sent from the client computer 12 to the server computer 20 via the LAN 30. The server computer 20 stores the record in the textile information file 22. In this manner, records are accumulated in the textile information file 22. When storing the textile to be evaluated on a shelf or a warehouse, it is desirable to store “textile management No.” in the textile to be evaluated.

Next, a description will be given of a method of searching for a textile based on a desired degree of sensitivity evaluation.

It is assumed that an apparel designer or a textile maker who is a user of the textile requests a feeling evaluation of "a touch with a cool touch and a crisp feeling" when searching for a desired textile. First, the user compares a standard sample according to the cool / warm evaluation standard of touch feeling “very cool” with the degree of “cool” touch feeling that the user desires. As a result of the comparison, if the user feels that the standard sample is much cooler than the touch feeling required by the user, the user next compares the standard sample according to “somewhat cool”. As a result of the comparison, it is assumed that it is determined that the touch feeling is cool. In this case, the evaluation degree to be specified as the search condition is “somewhat cool”. Since the designated evaluation level of the search condition is synchronized with the actual standard sample, it can be said that the evaluation level is objective.

As described above, the "kansei evaluation" to be searched for
After determining the designated value of "degree", the user selects "textile search" from the menu screen of FIG. Then, the screen transits to the textile search screen shown in FIG. Here, the user inputs the combination of his / her desired evaluation degree obtained by comparing it with the standard sample.
The server computer 20 finds a record having the specified combination of “kansei evaluation” and “degree” from the textile information file 22 and displays it in the display device 1.
4 outputs the textile search result list screen shown in FIG. 6 and displays the corresponding record.

When one record is selected on the textile search result list screen and the "detailed screen" is selected, FIG.
Is displayed, and detailed information of the textile is obtained.

As described above, by always comparing with the standard sample, it is possible to make the retrieval by the sensitivity evaluation more objective.

As described above, anyone can find the intended textile by searching and selecting the desired textile. If clothing, clothing and ornaments are produced using the textile, it is easy to quickly produce clothing, clothing and ornaments as intended by the user.

[0049]

As described above, in the textile search system according to the present invention, the degree of kansei evaluation of the textile to be searched is determined by comparison with a preset standard sample corresponding to the degree of kansei evaluation of the textile. Then, the evaluation degree is compared with the kansei evaluation data of the textile stored in the storage device, and the corresponding textile data is output, so that the kansei evaluation can have objectivity and the degree of the kansei evaluation can be made. The excellent effect that a textile can be searched from is obtained.

Further, in the textile data registration system according to the present invention, the degree of sensitivity evaluation of the textile to be registered is determined by comparison with a preset standard sample corresponding to the degree of sensitivity evaluation of the textile, and the evaluation degree is determined. Since the data is stored in the storage device, an excellent effect is obtained in that the degree of objectivity evaluation having objectivity can be registered as textile data.

Further, in the method for manufacturing clothing, apparel, and ornaments according to the present invention, the textile search system as described above finds a textile intended to be quickly used by accurate judgment based on objective evaluation criteria. Since this is used to manufacture clothing, apparel, and ornaments, an excellent effect of easily producing clothing, apparel, and ornaments as intended by the user quickly and easily is obtained.
