Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention is a time recorder incorporating an IC (integrated circuit) and recording employment data of each person using an IC time card equipped with a display section. Regarding the system.

[Conventional technology]

A so-called electronic time recorder, which is configured to store work data of each person recorded each time he or she leaves in a memory, and to read out the stored work data at a later date and use it for tabulation, etc., has a recording medium. A time card type time recorder that uses a paper time card as a paper time card and prints two pieces of employment data in each printing column of the card in order, and a magnetic time recorder that uses a magnetic card instead of a time card. There is a card-type time recorder.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

However, in the case of the former time cart-type time recorder, each person's employment data is printed out in the printing field of the time card, so while it is suitable because each person's employment status can be directly viewed and confirmed, It is necessary to record each individual code (employee code) with a punch, etc., and create a time card with name, affiliation, etc. written on it, or the time card inserted in the cart aisle.
A complicated mechanism is required to control the feeding of code-specific information to the correct print field position according to the time of day, which increases the cost of the recorder.Furthermore, the recorder has to store each person's employment data. Due to the provision of file memory, the number of users per 1° blank screen of the recorder is limited.
There was the inconvenience of using a recorder in that it was not possible to record unless the recorder had its own file memory set.

On the other hand, the latter magnetic card type time recorder can eliminate various disadvantages of the time card type time recorder mentioned above, such as the troublesome card creation work and the arrangement of a complicated card printing field positioning device. In the case of this type of time recorder, the work data cannot be printed directly on the card, so the recorded work data cannot be confirmed by looking at the card. A printing device is required to issue the recorder, which makes the recorder even more complicated and expensive.
In addition, in the case of this system, as in the case of the time card-type evening/time recorder, the number of users per recorder is limited due to the provision of individual file memory, and the use of recorders other than those specified. There were problems in using it, such as not being able to use it.

[Means for solving problems]

The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, and its purpose is to enable a single recorder to be used by a large number of people without any restrictions, and to eliminate the need to make each recorder unique. Recorders can be freely used to record work data, and there is no need for a complicated card printing field position control device, which means that they can be manufactured at low cost. All cart-L
The purpose of the present invention is to provide an extremely economical and innovative time recorder system that can be displayed on the screen for visual inspection and confirmation, and does not require the installation of equipment such as time cards. In order to achieve each of these objectives, the time recorder system according to the present invention is equipped with a function to perform arithmetic processing and storage of work data, and a function to display the stored work data on the cart-L. The system is composed of an IC time card and a recorder having a function of inputting time information, which serves as a reference for the employment data, into the IC time card.

[Effect]

According to the time recorder system according to the present invention configured as described above, when an IC time card in which each individual's identification information and work information such as work classification is input in advance into the memory is inserted into the recorder at the time of going to work, the current month, The date and time are stored in the card memory as the month, day, and time of arrival at work, and
The month, day, and time of coming to work are displayed in the month, day, and coming to work display columns of the card display section. Furthermore, if the employee arrives at work after the scheduled time and is judged to be late, in addition to the above-mentioned storage and display, the number of hours of lateness is calculated, and this number of hours is stored and displayed in the display column.

On the other hand, when you insert the above IC time card into the recorder when leaving work, the actual number of working hours is calculated by comparing the current time with the memorized arrival time, and the above leaving time and the number of actual working hours are stored in the memory respectively. , displayed in each display column of the card. In addition, if you leave work early before the scheduled time, calculate the number of hours you leave early, store it in memory, display it in the relevant column on the display, and subtract this number of hours you leave early from the actual working hours. Things are stored and displayed respectively.

In the case of overtime, the number of overtime hours is calculated, stored, and displayed in the same way.
