Communicator 7 is connected with sniffer 3, determinator 4, firing switch 5, indicating device 6, communication network 10.And communicator 7 communicates via communication network 10 and information processor 8, and the data between control sniffer 3, determinator 4, firing switch 5 and indicating device 6, the information processor 8 or the transmission of information receive.

Information processor 8 is computer or microcomputer etc., comprising: control part 81, Department of Communication Force 82, record portion 83, comparing section 84, indication determination section 85, clock portion 86.Information processor 8 is judged operator 1 fatigue strength or is determined operator 1 operation is indicated based on the various data messages of for example supplying with via communication network 10.

Control part 81 comprises CPU (Central Processing Unit, CPU), ROM (ReadOnly memory, read only memory), RAM (Random Access Memory, random access memory) etc., carry out operation of data and handle, the integral body of the blood processor of control information simultaneously 8.Calculation process in the control part 81 and control treatment specifically use RAM as the operating area and interim store various kinds of data on one side by CPU, Yi Bian carry out the control sequence of storing among the ROM, thus be performed.

Control part 81 is controlled Department of Communication Force 82, record portion 83, comparing section 84, indication determination section 85, clock portion 86 etc. according to the program that writes down in ROM or the record portion 83 etc., thereby carries out the determination processing of fatigue strength or the decision processing of operation indication etc.

Record portion 83 storing various information or program etc. comprise the medium that HDD (Hard Disk Drive, hard disk drive), disk, CD, FlashROM etc. can recorded informations.

Department of Communication Force 82 receives the operator's 1 who is surveyed and measured by sniffer 3 and determinator 4 the physiological status and the data of working environment.Control part 81 is recorded in the data that receive in the record portion 83, reads from record portion 83 as required simultaneously.

Like this, the physiological status of operator 1 in the operation and the data of working environment, the operator's 1 before beginning as for example operation of the reference value of physiological status and working environment the physiological status and the data of working environment are read from record portion 83, and supply to comparing section 84.Data and reference value in the operation of 84 pairs of supplies of comparing section compare, and compared result applies predetermined calculation process etc., for example judge operator 1 fatigue strength.

The processing action of the operation indication mechanism of present embodiment then, is described.

In addition, in Fig. 2,, operation indication processing be described with based on being example as the pulse of an example of physiological status, the situation of carrying out the operation indication as the external temperature of an example of working environment.

Operation indication shown in Figure 2 is handled for example by beginning (start) by operator's 1 operation firing switch 5.

At first, for example using as monitoring arrangement 2 under the situation of sphygmometer, surveying the pulse of the benchmark that becomes operator 1 (hereinafter referred to as the benchmark pulse by sniffer 3.), obtain these data (step S1) by information processor 8.For example, information processor 8 is obtained the pulse Value Data (for example 1 minute Pulse Rate) that operation begins preceding operator 1 corresponding to the operation of firing switch 5 as the benchmark pulse.

Then, for example, information processor 8 is obtained the external temperature of the benchmark that becomes operator 1 (hereinafter referred to as the benchmark external temperature from determinator 4.) data (step S2).For example, information processor 8 is obtained the data that operation begins preceding operator's 1 external temperature corresponding to the operation of firing switch 5 as the benchmark external temperature.

And, the data (step S3) of record benchmark pulse and benchmark external temperature in the record portion 83 of information processor 8.

In addition, Ji Lu benchmark pulse is not limited to the pulse Value Data of firing switch 5 when being pressed here, for example, and pulse Value Data in the time of also can being measure in advance and be registered tranquil or average pulse Value Data.In addition, as the benchmark external temperature, also can use average external temperature.

Then, set the starting point (step S4) of cycle of treatment described later.

Then, the timing arbitrarily in operation is surveyed operators 1 pulse (hereinafter referred to as pulse in the operation by sniffer 3.), obtain these data (step S5) by information processor 8.For example, information processor 8 is as pulse in the operation, the pulse Value Data of the operator 1 when obtaining the operation number of times that reaches predetermined.

In addition, the above-mentioned arbitrarily timing of information processor 8 in operation, the external temperature of obtaining operator 1 from determinator 4 is (hereinafter referred to as external temperature in the operation.) data (step S6).For example, information processor 8 is as external temperature in the operation, obtains the data of the external temperature of the operator 1 when reaching above-mentioned predetermined operation number of times.

Then, the data (step S7) of external temperature in pulse and the operation in the record operation in the record portion 83 of information record carrier 8.

Then, information processor 8 is based on the data of external temperature in benchmark external temperature of obtaining in above-mentioned steps S2 and S6 and the operation, calculated correction value (step S8).Particularly, control part 81 is read in benchmark external temperature and the operation external temperature and is supplied to comparing section 84 from record portion 83, the value that comparing section 84 will be supplied with is applied to ask corrected value (environmental correction value) in ' exterior temperature change/pulse relies on kilsyth basalt ' for example shown in Figure 3.

Should ' exterior temperature change/pulse dependence kilsyth basalt ', be recorded in advance in the record portion 83 corrected value that each combination decision of external temperature in benchmark external temperature and the operation is scheduled to.For example, be that external temperature is under 30 ℃ the situation in 15 ℃, operation at the benchmark external temperature, from table shown in Figure 3, read '+12 ' corrected value and obtain.In addition, corrected value also can be obtained by the predetermined computing of using benchmark external temperature and operator's external temperature.

Information processor 8 is based on this correction value evaluation of estimate (state evaluation value) E (step S9).Particularly, the difference of pulse adds corrected value in benchmark pulse of obtaining among 84 couples of above-mentioned steps S1 of comparing section and the S5 and the operation, thereby calculates evaluation of estimate.For example, evaluation of estimate E obtains by pulse value in the evaluation of estimate E=operation-benchmark pulse value+corrected value.

And then information processor 8 compares evaluation of estimate E with for example fatigue strength decision condition shown in Figure 4, and judges operator 1 fatigue strength (step S10).In example shown in Figure 4, by with evaluation of estimate E ± 5 and ± 10 fatigue strength decision conditions as benchmark, fatigue strength is divided into ' normally ', ' have fatigue ', ' tired big ' three groups.Particularly, be suitable for which fatigue strength decision condition of fatigue strength ' normally ', ' have fatigue ', ' tired big ' by judging evaluation of estimate E, thus comparing section 84 judgement fatigue strengths.In addition, the group number of fatigue strength is not limited to three groups, also can be more than two groups or four groups.In addition, this fatigue strength decision condition is stored in the record portion 83 in advance.

Then, information processor 8 is based on the result of determination among the step S10, and whether the fatigue strength of differentiating operator 1 is ' normally ' (step S11).

Here, when fatigue strength is ' normally ' (step S11: be), information processor 8 is judged operations indication processing termination conditions (step S12).Then, when not finishing, return step S4, continue cycle of treatment.In addition, the judgement by above-mentioned operation indication termination condition finishes the operation indication when handling, for example be meant as the operator 1 of the object of operation indication not the time, or operation all enter the time of having a rest time.

In addition, (step S 11: not), information processor 8 differentiated whether fatigue strength is ' fatigue is arranged ' (step S13) when fatigue strength was not ' normally ' in step S11.

Here, at fatigue strength (step S13: be) when ' fatigue is arranged ', even information processor 8 find that a little fatigue also is judged as and continue action, even and operator's 1 indication continued ' residue operation number of times ' (the step S14) that operation does not cause problem yet.Specifically, 85 decisions of indication determination section remain the operation number of times, and this information is sent to indicating device 6 by Department of Communication Force 82.The residue operation number of times that indicating device 6 will receive is presented on display etc.

And then information processor 8 judges whether residue operation number of times becomes 0 (step S15), be not 0 o'clock (step S15: not), will remain the operation number of times and deduct 1 (step S16), and indication remains operation number of times (step S14) once more.Like this, circulation step S14～S16 becomes 0 up to residue operation number of times.

Then, residue operation number of times becomes at 0 o'clock (step S15: be) in step S15, and 8 couples of operators of information processor, 1 indication energy recovers (step S17), finishes (end) this operation indication and handles.Specifically, residue operation number of times becomes at 0 o'clock, and the indication that indication determination section 85 decision energy recover will recover to send to indicating device 6 as the operation indication information of instruction content by Department of Communication Force 82 with energy.Indicating device 6 is based on the information that receives, and the indication picture that for example energy shown in Figure 5 is recovered to advise (operation termination) is presented on the display etc.

In addition, in the example that the picture that energy shown in Figure 5 recovers to advise shows, to object UserID (operator's identification number): 000005 indication the energy reset mode is made as ' rests ' and will be made as ' 13:26 '～' 13:31 ' time of having a rest thus carry out the energy recovery.

And then in step S13, when in fatigue strength not being ' fatigue is arranged ' (step S13: not), whether information control device 8 is differentiated fatigue strengths and is ' tired big ' (step S18).

Here, when being ' fatigue is big ' in fatigue strength (step S18: be), 8 couples of operators of information processor, 1 indication energy recovers (step S17), and finishes this operation and indicate processing.Specifically, indication determination section 85 decision indication energy recover, and this operation indication information is sent to indicating device 6 by Department of Communication Force 82.Indicating device 6 is based on the operation indication information that receives, and the indication picture that energy for example shown in Figure 5 is recovered to advise is presented on the display etc.

In addition, in step S18, (step S18: not),, therefore carry out the operation indication once more and handle when fatigue strength is not ' tired big ' owing to be any one state that can not have usually that fatigue strength does not correspond to ' normally ', ' fatigue is arranged ', ' tired big '.Specifically, judge that by information processor 8 operation indication processing termination condition finishes (step S12), when not finishing, return step S4, continue cycle of treatment.

Like this, detected both of operator's physiological status and working environment in first embodiment of the present invention, under the situation according to the reduction of these testing results prediction working performances, carry out and this operation that predicts the outcome corresponding is indicated.

Thus, the operation indication mechanism of first embodiment of the invention, can eliminate in the existing systems of the judgement of the fatigue strength of only carrying out the operator, produce the problem points of the situation of the judgement that can not carry out suitable fatigue strength owing to working environment by physiological statuss such as pulses.

For example, as mentioned above, be that external temperature is under 30 ℃ the situation in 15 ℃, operation at the benchmark external temperature, just under the situation that external temperature has risen, the prediction fatigue strength raises sharp.Therefore, for example by corrected value being made as '+12 ', even the rising of pulse a little, the fatigue strength decision condition of ' fatigue is arranged ' and ' tired big ' also is fit to.

In addition, be that external temperature is under 15 ℃ the situation in 30 ℃, operation at the benchmark external temperature, consider that pulse and fatigue strength irrespectively rise.Therefore, for example corrected value is made as ' 12 ', thereby relaxes the fatigue strength decision condition.

Like this, the operation indication mechanism of first embodiment of the invention, detect both of operator's physiological status and working environment, under the situation according to the reduction of these testing results prediction working performances, can carry out and this operation that predicts the outcome corresponding is indicated.Then, for example can construct the operation indication mechanism that prevents grade of the reduction that is used in the working performance in the operation process well.

In addition, in the above-described embodiment, information processor 8 is illustrated as computer or microcomputer etc., but also can comprises people's intervention in the processing that information processor 8 carries out.

In addition, indicating device 6 is not limited to display devices such as CRT, LCD, LED, scialyscope, black print, whiteboard, also can be the device by means of olfactory sensation, sense of touch, audition.In other words, the energy in the indicating device 6 recovers to advise the demonstration that is not limited to by means of vision, also can be undertaken by the method by means of olfactory sensation, sense of touch, audition.For example, use pungent taste such as Fructus Citri Limoniae and by means of olfactory sensation, or adopt the thrust that can feel underfoot and by means of sense of touch, or utilize broadcasting or drum to wait sound and by means of audition, to recover advice also passable thereby carry out energy.

In addition, in the above-described embodiment, for example in the factory that carries out operation communication networks 10 such as LAN are set, the transmission of carrying out the data between each device via communication network 10 receives.But near configuration information blood processor 8 operator 1 directly connects sniffer 3, determinator 4, firing switch 5, indicating device 6 etc. to information processor 8 and also can.

In addition, by connecting each device, can be standard with the manner of execution of known computer network via communication network 10, construct the operation indication mechanism.

In addition, in the above-described embodiment, the operator carries out the detection of 3 pairs of physiological statuss of sniffer every predetermined operation number of times, but for example also can utilize from the time information of clock portion 86, carries out every the predetermined moment.In addition, utilize time information, under approaching situation of original time of having a rest, also can not carry out energy and recover to advise.

Like this, the operation indication mechanism of first embodiment of the invention, can eliminate in the existing systems of the judgement of the fatigue strength of only carrying out the operator, produce the problem points of the situation of the judgement that can not carry out suitable fatigue strength owing to working environment by physiological statuss such as pulses.

(second embodiment)

In addition, the operation indication mechanism of first embodiment of the invention described above is judged operator's fatigue strength based on operator's physiological status and working environment.But in addition, for example the operator's that also video camera etc. can be monitored action is as the judgement material of fatigue strength.

About operator's the action and the relation of fatigue strength, point out ' for example in repeating the such operation of identical action,, being not limited to necessarily ' for the ratio of the reduction of the efficient of operator's fatigue by proficiency to this operation.That is, if consider to rise for the proficiency of operation, even fatigue strength raises a little, efficiency of operation does not descend yet.

Therefore, for the high operator of the proficiency of operation, if advise job abort (energy recovery etc.) with the benchmark identical with common operator the samely, then its result produces the possibility that working performance unnecessarily reduces.

Therefore, in second embodiment of the present invention, a kind of operation indication mechanism is described, directly judge the reduction of working performance by observation operator's action, grasp proficiency simultaneously reliably for operator's operation by observation operator's action, by being suitable for the processing of this proficiency, can carry out the indication of suitable operation.

As shown in the figure, the operation indication mechanism of second embodiment of the present invention also comprises marker 21, observation device 22, recording apparatus 23 except the structure of the operation indication mechanism of first embodiment that comprises the invention described above.In addition, the structure of the information processor 8 of the information processor 8 in second embodiment of the present invention in comprising first embodiment of the present invention, also comprise motion detection portion 24, action comparing section 25, the portion 26 that quantizes, operational part 27.

In addition, in the explanation of Fig. 6, for giving same label and the repetitive description thereof will be omitted with the shared part of above-mentioned Fig. 1.

As shown in Figure 6, in a series of operation of the operator 1, produce wrist, shoulder, the first-class predetermined position of moving marker 21 is set.This marker 21 for example can be to send the small-sized device of predetermined infrared ray etc. or reflecting plate of predetermined size etc.And then if the high system of identification ability, then adhesive tape of the white that only will prescind etc. sticks on the operator 1 also passable as marker 21.And, in operator 1 operation, on the position that can take above-mentioned marker 21, be provided with for example observation device 22 such as video camera.

The operator 1 that 22 pairs of observation devices have been pasted adhesive tape 21 takes, and its picture signal is supplied to recording apparatus 23.The picture signal that recording apparatus 23 records are supplied with from observation device 22.The picture signal of recording apparatus 23 records is sent to information processor 8 by communicator 7.

In information processor 8, motion detection portion 24 measures the position of the marker 21 of each preset time based on the picture signal that receives, thereby asks the action data in operator's 1 operation, and supplies to action comparing section 25.25 pairs of comparing sections of action from the operation that action determination part 24 is supplied with action data and record portion 83 in advance the action data of the benchmark of record compare, generate the control information of action, and supply to the portion of quantizing 26.The 26 pairs of driven control informations of making comparisons portions' 25 supplies of portion that quantize apply predetermined processing, ask the action evaluation value that is quantized, and supply to operational part 27.Operational part 27 uses the computing of being scheduled to from the action evaluation value of the portion's of quantizing 26 supplies, and the action in judgement operator's 1 the operation.

Then, based on the operation result of

operational part

27,85 decisions of indication determination section show the indication of operation arbitrarily to operator 1 operation indication in indicating device 6.In addition, based on the operation result of operational part 27, change supplies to the action data of the benchmark of action comparing section 25 from record portion 83.

Fig. 7～Figure 10 is the flow chart of the example handled of the operation indication in the operation indication mechanism of expression second embodiment of the present invention.

Operator 1 is mounted in advance the marker 21 of the sign of action, and for example the sphygmometer as monitoring arrangement 2 is installed under as the situation of physiological status monitor pulse.

Fig. 7～operation indication shown in Figure 10 is for example handled and is begun (start) by operator's 1 operation firing switch 5.

At first, information processor 8 is obtained the operator's 1 of the information such as proficiency that comprise the operator intrinsic information (step S21).Specifically, obtaining by operator 1 input operation or obtain automatically etc. of intrinsic information undertaken.For example, by the treatment of picture of identification by company clerk's card of the operator 1 of observation device 22 shootings, information processor 8 is obtained operator's UserID, set up the related intrinsic information that is stored in the record portion 83 by reading, thereby can carry out obtaining automatically of intrinsic information with UserID.

Then, set the starting point (step S22) of cycle of treatment described later.

Then, information processor 8 judges based on operator 1 intrinsic information operator 1 proficiency is set to which (step S23) of ' standard ', ' poor ', ' outstanding '.Then, according to judged result, be provided for moving benchmark action A, B, the C (step S24, S25, S26) of comparison.In addition, operator 1 is not being set under the situation of proficiency, benchmark action A (step S24) is being set.Here, for example, the benchmark action A of proficiency ' standard ' is shown in Figure 11 (A), the benchmark action B of proficiency ' poor ' is shown in Figure 11 (B), C is shown in Figure 11 (C) for the action of the benchmark of proficiency ' outstanding ', the angle and the distance that move of the marker 21 that expression is watched from predetermined datum mark every preset time.In addition, the data in advance of this benchmark action is recorded in the record portion 83.

Then, 22 pairs of observation devices have been pasted action in operator 1 the operation of labelling 21 (hereinafter referred to as action X.) take (step S27), recording apparatus 23 writes down (step S28) to its image.And then the image of record is fed into information processor 8 by communicator 7, extracts the parameter (step S29) of action X in the image that the motion detection portion 24 of information processor 8 writes down from recording apparatus 23.In addition, the parameter of extraction is for the beginning till finish of a series of operation, and has measured the angle that moves of the marker of watching from predetermined datum mark every preset time 21 and the parameter of distance.In other words, these parameters were made of angle and represented position vector and time of distance.Like this, information processor 8 is obtained the data of action X.

Based on these parameters, action comparing section 25 is calculated the difference value d (step S30) of angle.The difference value d of angle obtains by difference value d=(angle of action X)-(angle of the benchmark action of setting) for each vector in the action X.For this difference value d, the portion 26 that quantizes asks the summing point D (step S31) of angle according to for example summing point table of the angle shown in Figure 12 (A).And then the summing point D of 26 pairs of these angles of portion that quantize adds the summing point of the angle of previous vector, thereby asks the method for summated ratings point TD (step S32) of angle.In other words, the method for summated ratings point TD of angle obtains by method of summated ratings point TD=method of summated ratings point TD+ summing point D.Then, judge in the action X whether next vector (step S33) is arranged, (step S33: be) returns step S30 sometimes.By the processing of this step S30～S33, obtain the summing point D of angle for all vectors that constitute the parameter of extracting from operator 1 action X, the method for summated ratings point TD of the angle that their are added up to is added.

In addition, in step S33 when not having next vector (step S33: not), the difference value 1 (small letter 1) (step S34) of action comparing section 25 computed ranges.Each vector in 1 pair of action of the difference value of distance X is obtained by difference value d=(distance of action X)-(distance of the benchmark action of setting).For this difference value 1, the portion 26 that quantizes asks the summing point L (step S35) of distance according to for example summing point table of the distance shown in Figure 12 (B).And then the summing point L that 26 pairs in the portion of quantizing should distance adds the summing point of the distance of previous vector, thereby asks the method for summated ratings point TL (step S36) of distance.In other words, the method for summated ratings point TL of distance obtains by method of summated ratings point TL=method of summated ratings point TL+ summing point L.Then, judge in the action X whether next vector (step S37) is arranged, (step S37: be) returns step S34 sometimes.By the processing of this step S34～S37, obtain the summing point L of distance for all vectors that constitute the parameter of extracting from operator 1 action X, the method for summated ratings point TL of the distance that their are added up to is calculated.

And then, in step S37 when not having next vector (step S37: not), the difference value t (step S38) of action comparing section 25 computed ranges.The difference value t of time obtains by difference value t=(number of the vector of action X)-(number of the vector of the benchmark action of setting).For this difference value t, the portion 26 that quantizes comes the summing point T (step S39) of seeking time according to for example summing point table of the time shown in Figure 12 (C).Then, the portion 26 that quantizes is the method for summated ratings point TD of angle, the method for summated ratings point TL of distance, the summing point T addition of time, thereby asks the action evaluation value (step S40) of action X.In other words, the action evaluation value is obtained by action evaluation value=method of summated ratings point TD+ method of summated ratings point TL+ summing point T.In addition, summing point table shown in Figure 12 is used for each for angle, distance, time, and difference value is predetermined predetermined summing point, is recorded in advance in record portion 83.In addition, summing point also can be obtained by the predetermined computing of having used difference value.

Operational part 27 uses this action evaluation value to judge operator 1 action X.Specifically, operational part 27 is judged operator 1 proficiency based on the action evaluation value, or judges that action is disorderly to the degree that needs the energy recovery etc.

At first, S23 is same with above-mentioned steps, and information processor 8 judges based on operator 1 intrinsic information operator 1 proficiency is set to which (step S41) of ' standard ', ' poor ', ' outstanding '.And, each proficiency is carried out judgement (step S42, S43, S44) based on the action evaluation value of obtaining in step S40.Specifically, operational part 27 is judged the action evaluation value according to jump condition table for example shown in Figure 13, and according to its judged result, carries out the transfer of judging to the change or the energy recovery of proficiency.In addition, this jump condition table is recorded in the record portion 83 in advance.

Here, in the table of Figure 13, proficiency ' standard ', ' poor ', ' outstanding ' before vertically expression is shifted represent that laterally proficiency ' standard ', ' poor ', ' outstanding ' and the energy on transfer destination ground recovers judgement, and each of this combination represented the condition of action evaluation value.Then, each proficiency before shifting is judged the action evaluation value, set transfer to the transfer destination ground corresponding with the hurdle of the condition that is fit to.In addition, among Fig. 9 and Figure 13, by the numeral condition and the relations of metastasis of zone circle.

Then, in judgement by the action evaluation value, be judged as to transfer destination under the situation of proficiency ' standard ', operator 1 proficiency is set to ' standard ' (step S45), transfer destination be judged as under the situation of proficiency ' poor ', operator 1 proficiency is set to ' poor ' (step S46), transfer destination be judged as under the situation of proficiency ' outstanding ', operator 1 proficiency is set to ' outstanding ' (step S47).In addition, these intrinsic informations of setting as operator 1 are registered.Then, by this registration, the operator's 1 who writes down as intrinsic information in the record portion 83 proficiency is changed.

In addition, in the table of Figure 13, proficiency before transfer is under the situation of ' standard ' condition, (4), proficiency before shifting is under the situation of ' poor ', condition (8), proficiency before shifting is that (numeral of having added underscore here, is in the drawings with the numeral of zone circle under the situation of ' outstanding ', condition (12).), be set to transfer destination energy and recover to judge (step S48).This is because be suitable under the situation of these conditions in the action evaluation value, and the operation action that is judged as operator 1 has considerably worsened.

Then, information processor 8 judges whether transfer destination ground is set to energy and recovers to judge (step S49), when being set (step S49: be), carries out fatigue strength determination processing (step S50).In other words, result, the transfer destination ground of only having judged the action evaluation value in step S42～S44 recovers for energy to carry out the judgement of fatigue strength under the situation of judgement.As this fatigue strength determination processing, for example, the step S5 of execution graph 2～S10.In addition, the required reference value (benchmark pulse or benchmark external temperature etc.) of the judgement of fatigue strength is recorded in the record portion 83 in advance.

Then, information processor 8 is based on the result of determination of fatigue strength, and the fatigue strength of differentiating operator 1 is which (step S51) of ' normally ', ' fatigue is arranged ', ' tired big '.

Differentiate in step S51 under the situation for ' tired big ', 8 couples of operators of information processor, 1 indication energy recovers (step S52), and finishes this operation indication and handle.Specifically, indication determination section 85 decision indication energy recover, and this operation indication information is sent to indicating device 6 by Department of Communication Force 82.Indicating device 6 is based on the operation indication information that receives, and shows that energy for example shown in Figure 5 recovers to advise the indication picture of (operation termination) on display etc.

On the contrary, differentiate in step S51 under the situation of ' normally ', although the operation action worsens, because fatigue strength is normal, therefore be considered as neglecting of operation, operation (step S53) is implemented in 8 couples of operators of information processor, 1 indication.And then, judge operation indication processing termination condition (step S54), when satisfying condition, this operation indication processing finishes, and when not satisfying, returns step S22 and continues cycle of treatment.

On the other hand, in step S51, differentiate the necessity (step S55) that information processor 8 inquiry operators 1 energy recovers under the situation of ' fatigue is arranged '.Then, information processor 8 is judged the necessity (step S56) that energy recovers, under the situation that needs energy to recover (step S56: be) according to from operator 1 information etc., operator's 1 indication energy is recovered (step S57), finish this operation indication and handle.Here, the judgement of the necessity that energy recovers for example can be carried out based on operator's 1 own application, or carries out objectively based on the judgement of the reflex motor ability by simple test etc.

In addition, (step S56: not) when not needing energy to recover, (step S49: not) when transfer destination is not set to energy recovery judgement in above-mentioned steps S49, judge operation indication processing termination condition (step S54), this operation indication processing finishes when satisfying condition, and returns step S22 and continue cycle of treatment when not satisfying.

Like this, in second embodiment of the present invention, in observation operator's action, under the situation according to the reduction of this observed result prediction working performance, carry out and this operation that predicts the outcome corresponding indication, measure operator's proficiency simultaneously, carry out the change of the benchmark of operation indication in view of the above.

Thus, operation indication mechanism second embodiment of the invention for the operator high to the proficiency of operation, can prevent to carry out useless job abort (energy recovery) indication, as a result of, and the situation that working performance unnecessarily reduces.

And then, below, enumerate concrete example actual processing action is described.In the following description, the proficiency before operator 1 transfer is set under the situation of ' standard ', and the action X by operator 1 is described, every the example of the position vector of scheduled time observation operation action shown in Figure 14.

In this case, because the proficiency before operator 1 the transfer is set to ' standard ', so in the step S24 of Fig. 7, read position vector and the setting of the benchmark action A shown in Figure 11 (A) from record portion 83.Therefore, when asking the difference of this benchmark action A and action X based on Figure 11 (A) and vector shown in Figure 14, this value (the difference value d of angle, the difference value 1 of distance, the difference value t of time) is shown in Figure 15 (A)～(C).Here, shown in Figure 15 (C), action X is Duoed the vector number (difference value t=+1) of an express time than benchmark action A.Thereby by the difference value d of the angle shown in Figure 15 (A) and the difference value 1 of the distance shown in Figure 15 (B), last vector does not become object.

Then, based on these difference values d, l, t, read each summing point D, L, T and when finding the solution, it is worth shown in Figure 16 (A)～(C) according to the summing point table shown in Figure 12 (A)～(C).Then, as the method for summated ratings point TD of the aggregate value of the summing point D of angle shown in the bottom of Figure 16 (A), method of summated ratings point TD=+20, as the method for summated ratings point TL of the aggregate value of the summing point L of distance shown in the bottom of Figure 16 (B), be method of summated ratings point TL=-25, the summing point T of time such as Figure 16 (C) are depicted as T=± 0.Thereby the action evaluation value that the value of these summing points TD, TL, T is added up to becomes-5, according to jump condition table shown in Figure 13 because the proficiency before shifting be ' standard ', is suitable for condition (1), thus transfer destination become proficiency ' standard '.Like this, carry out the setting on transfer destination ground.

Like this, in second embodiment of the present invention, observation operator's action is also carried out the operation indication, measures operator's proficiency simultaneously, and carries out the change of the benchmark of operation indication in view of the above.

Thus, operation indication mechanism second embodiment of the invention, observation operator's action is under the situation of the reduction of this observed result prediction working performance, can carry out and this operation that predicts the outcome corresponding indication, can prevent to carry out useless operation indication simultaneously.And, for example, can construct the operation indication mechanism of reduction of being suitable for being used for preventing the working performance in the operation process etc.

In addition, operation indication mechanism second embodiment of the invention, can eliminate and directly judge its fatigue strength by action according to the operator, and only undertaken producing the problem points of the situation of the judgement that can not carry out suitable fatigue strength owing to the variation of working environment etc. in operator's the existing systems of judgement of fatigue strength by physiological statuss such as pulses.

And then operation indication mechanism second embodiment of the invention by grasping the proficiency for this operation exactly according to operator's action, and is fit to the processing of this proficiency, thereby can carries out the indication of suitable operation.

(the 3rd embodiment)

In addition, in first and second embodiment of the invention described above, illustrated independent operator has been carried out operation indication mechanism about the indication of operation.But, also can carry out the operation indication to a plurality of operators concentrated area.

In addition, in the production line of for example product that a plurality of operators are engaged in etc., only indicate energy to recover, then the working performance of all production lines situation about reducing on the contrary to independent operator if exist.In addition, engage in a plurality of operators' the fatigue of a series of production line because the overload of operation or the influence of working environment etc. and the probability that produces together is also very high.

Therefore, in the 3rd embodiment of the present invention, illustrate for a plurality of operators and carry out the operation indication uniformly, special in the production line that a plurality of operators are engaged in, the operation indication mechanism that also can carry out suitable operation indication.

In addition, in the explanation of Figure 17, the repetitive description thereof will be omitted to giving same label with the common part of above-mentioned Fig. 1.

As shown in the figure, the operation indication mechanism of the 3rd embodiment of the present invention for example is provided with monitoring arrangement 2, sniffer 3, determinator 4, firing switch 5, indicating device 6, communicator 7 to each of a plurality of operators 1 of the production line of engaging in product.And for each operator, communicator 7 sends sniffer 3 via 10 pairs of information processors of communication network 8 and determinator 4 is surveyed and the physiological status of mensuration and the information of working environment.Thus, the information of the physiological status of each of a plurality of operators and working environment concentrates in the information processor 8.

Comparing section 84 is judged each operator's fatigue strength based on these information, and indication determination section 85 decides operation indication to each operator based on each operator's fatigue strength information.Then, Department of Communication Force 82 distributes the operation indication information of decision via 10 pairs of a plurality of indicating devices 6 of communication network.Thus, each carries out the operation indication to a plurality of operators.In addition, determinator 4 is provided with each production line, each production line is measured working environment also can.

In addition, in Figure 18, be that example illustrates operation indication processing with the situation of three operator A, B, C being carried out the operation indication.

To three operator A, B, C each, for example sphygmometer as monitoring arrangement 2 is installed in advance.

Operation indication processing shown in Figure 180 is for example operated firing switch 5 by the director by production line and is begun (start).

At first, information processor 8 is obtained the intrinsic information (step S61) of operator A, B, C.Specifically, intrinsic information obtains by each operator's input operation or obtains automatically to wait and carry out.For example, the treatment of picture of company clerk's card of the operator 1 who takes by surveillance camera etc. by finger print identifying or identification etc., information processor 8 is obtained operator's UserID, and read and set up related with UserID and be recorded in intrinsic information in the record portion 83, thereby can carry out obtaining automatically of intrinsic information.

Then, set the starting point (step S62) of cycle of treatment described later.

Then, information processor 8 is carried out the fatigue strength determination processing for each operator A, B, C, obtains each operator's fatigue strength information (step S63).As this fatigue strength determination processing, for example the step S5 of execution graph 2～S10.In addition, the required reference value (benchmark pulse or benchmark external temperature etc.) of the judgement of fatigue strength is recorded in the record portion 83 in advance.

The employed fatigue strength decision condition of this fatigue strength determination processing is for each operator and difference.The fatigue strength decision condition of each of operator A～C for example is the condition shown in Figure 19 (A)～(C).Each operator's fatigue strength critical table is for example as each operator's intrinsic information and be recorded in advance in the record portion 83.In addition, for three people of operator A～C, operator A is that-5≤E≤+ 5 o'clock are considered as fatigue strength ' normally ' at evaluation of estimate E respectively, is considered as ' tired big ' when E＜-10 and+10＜E.Operator B is that-3≤E≤+ 3 o'clock are considered as fatigue strength ' normally ' at evaluation of estimate E, is considered as ' tired big ' when E＜-8 and+8＜E.Operator C is that-7≤E≤+ 7 o'clock are considered as fatigue strength ' normally ' at evaluation of estimate E, is considered as ' tired big ' when E＜-12 and+12＜E.

Then, information processor 8 is differentiated with all operations and is judged that energy recovers still each operator to be judged (step S64).For example, in administrative center 9, the manager selects to judge that with all operations energy recovers still each operator to be judged, and selects information providing to information processor 8 it.Information processor 8 is differentiated based on this selection information.Then, each operator is being judged (step S64: not) under the situation that energy recovers, information processor 8 is based on the fatigue strength information that obtains among the step S63, whether the fatigue strength of differentiating operator A is ' tired big ' (step S65), when ' tired big ' (step S65: be), operator A indication energy is recovered (step S66).Specifically, information processor 8 sends energy by near the indicating device 6 to operator A and recovers indication informations, shows that energy recovers indication on the display of indicating device 6 etc., and operator A indication energy is recovered.

In addition, whether the fatigue strength that information processor 8 is differentiated operator B is ' tired big ' (step S67), when ' tired big ' (step S67: be), operator B indication energy is recovered (step S68).And then whether the fatigue strength that information processor 8 is differentiated operator C is ' tired big ' (step S69), when ' tired big ' (step S69: be), operator C indication energy is recovered (step S70).In addition, the differentiation among these steps S65, S67, the S69 is not the time series with as shown, but parallel simultaneously carry out also passable.

On the other hand, judging with all operations under the situation that energy recovers (step S64: be), whether the fatigue strength that information processor 8 is differentiated operator A is ' tired big ' (step S71), whether the fatigue strength of differentiating operator B is ' tired big ' (step S72), and whether the fatigue strength of differentiating operator C is ' tired big ' (step S73).Then, even when a people ' tired big ' is arranged (step S71: be step S72: be step S73: be), information processor 8 couples of operator A, B, C crews indicate energy to recover (step S74).Specifically, information processor 8 distributes energy to recover indication informations by near each the indicating device 6 to operator A, B, C, thereby on the display of each indicating device 6 etc., show that energy recovers indication, and indicate energy to recover operator crew.

Then, information processor 8 is judged operation indication processing termination condition (step S75), when satisfying condition, finishes this operation indication and handles.In addition, when not satisfying condition, return step S62, and continue cycle of treatment.

In addition, in this operation indication mechanism, in fact, the operator of production line has been carried out for example following the carrying out of processing after energy recovers indication.At first,

1. recover indication based on energy the operator and carry out under the situation that energy recovers, by the undermanned situation to administrative center's 9 contact production lines such as phone/Email/revolving light/sound.

Manager in the administrative center 9 judges the reply processing then.

The manager carries out following processing etc.:

2. will be instructed to the people's that energy recovers operation and the people's who carries out simple and easy operation operation exchange.

3. make be instructed to the people that energy recovers and have a rest in people's changing shifts.

4. replace being instructed to the people that energy recovers, with the line management person temporarily as the operator.

5. under the situation of the needs changing shifts personnel when existing energy to recover, make the people who is instructed to the energy recovery and need the changing shifts personnel to change shifts.

On production line not to being instructed to people's fluid product that energy recovers.

In addition, carry out in the production line of identical operation, under the situation of a people having been carried out energy recovery indication, carry out following processing etc. three people:

7. implement by two people for the operation that three people are carried out, postpone the linear velocity of production line.

8. growing amount descends, and at the state that produces the shortage of staff, what does not change.

9. only locate to quicken the mobile speed of article and (also can use above-mentioned 7 and 8 together the people who is instructed to the energy recovery.)。

In addition, in line production, promptly three people finish in the production line of an operation, under the situation that the energy that a people is carried out recovers, carry out following processing etc.:

10. increase remaining operator's operation formality.In other words, give remaining people with the job assignment that has been instructed to the people of energy recovery.

11. do not change whatever.Its result, the storage that has been instructed to the people of energy recovery is overstock.

12. only, quicken the flowing velocity of article and (also can use above-mentioned 10 and 11 together being instructed to the people place that energy recovers.)。

Like this, in fact, judge that according to the state of production line being instructed to energy recovers processing afterwards.

Like this, detected at a plurality of operators' physiological status and working environment in the 3rd embodiment of the present invention, under the situation according to the reduction of these testing results prediction working performances, carry out and this operation that predicts the outcome corresponding is indicated.

Thus,, a plurality of operators are carried out the operation indication uniformly,, also can carry out suitable operation indication even in the production line that a plurality of operators are engaged in according to the operation indication mechanism of the 3rd embodiment of the present invention.In addition, produce under a plurality of operators' be engaged in a series of production line the situation of fatigue together, can carry out operation indication together.

Then, the variation that the operation indication in the operation indication mechanism of the 3rd embodiment of the present invention is handled is described.

Figure 20 makes expression that a plurality of production lines for example be arranged, the flow chart that each production line has the operation indication of a plurality of operators' situation to handle.In addition, in Figure 20, for three production line α, β, γ, engaging in production line α, two operator D, E with three operator A, B, C, to engage in the situation that production line β, three operator F, G, H engage in production line γ be example, illustrates that the operation indication handles.In addition, the fatigue strength decision condition of each of operator A～H is the condition shown in Figure 19 (A)～(H) for example.In addition, in the explanation that operation indication shown in Figure 20 is handled, omit explanation for the action identical with action illustrated in fig. 18.

Operator's crew is equipped with for example sphygmometer as monitoring arrangement 2 in advance.

Operation indication shown in Figure 20 is handled, and for example operates firing switch 5 by the director by all operations and begins (start).

At first, information processor 8 is obtained operator crew's intrinsic information (step S81).Then, set the starting point (step S82) of cycle of treatment described later.

Then, 8 couples of operator crews of information processor carry out the fatigue strength determination processing, obtain each operator's fatigue strength information (step S83).

Then, information processor 8 is differentiated with all operations and is judged that energy recovers still each production line to be judged (step S84).Then, each production line is being judged (step S84: not) under the situation that energy recovers, information processor 8 is based on the fatigue strength information that obtains in step S83, whether have ' tired big ' if judging on the production line α operator (step S85), sometimes (step S85: be), production line α indication energy is recovered (step S86).Specifically, information processor 8 passes through to distribute energy to recover indication informations near the indicating device 6 of each of each operator of production line α, can on the display of each indicating device 6 etc., show that energy recovers indication, production line α indication energy is recovered.

In addition, whether having fatigue strength on the information processor 8 differentiation production line β is the operator (step S87) of ' tired big ', sometimes (step S87: be), production line β indication energy is recovered (step S88).And then on the information processor 8 differentiation production line γ whether fatigue strength being arranged is the operator (step S89) of ' tired big ', sometimes (step S89: be), production line γ indication energy is recovered (step S90).In addition, the differentiation among these steps S85, S87, the S89 not with as shown time series and side by side parallel carry out also passable.

On the other hand, judging with all operations under the situation that energy recovers (step S84: be), whether having fatigue strength on the information processor 8 differentiation production line α is the operator (step S91) of ' tired big ', whether fatigue strength is arranged on the differentiation production line β is the operator (step S92) of ' tired big ', and whether fatigue strength is arranged on the differentiation production line γ is the operator (step S93) of ' greatly tired '.Then, when the operator of ' tired big ' is arranged on which production line (step S91: be step S92: be step S93: be), 8 couples of all production line α of information processor, β, γ indication energy recover (step S94).Specifically, information processor 8 is by distributing energy to recover indication informations near the indicating device 6 each of each operator of production line α, β, γ, thereby on the display of each indicating device 6 etc., show that energy recovers indication, all production line indication energy is recovered.

Then, information processor 8 is judged operation indication processing termination condition (step S95), finishes this operation indication and handle when satisfying condition.In addition, when not satisfying condition, return step S82, continue cycle of treatment.

Like this,, have on each production line under a plurality of operators' the situation, also can carry out the operation indication uniformly, and carry out suitable operation indication a plurality of operators even a plurality of production lines are for example being arranged.In addition, in step S85, S87, S89, the processing of step S64～S73 by carrying out Figure 18 can carry out also that energy to all operations recovers to judge and the energy of each production line recovers to judge that three kinds of energy that the energy that has increased each operator recovers to judge recover to judge.In this case, in administrative center 9, the manager is by selecting to judge that with which method of all operations, each production line, each operator energy recovers, and can reflect gerentocratic purpose.

In addition, there is the state of the state that is less than ' tired big ' ' fatigue is arranged ' in operator's fatigue strength.For example, under the situation of three operator A, B, C being carried out the operation indication, under each the fatigue strength decision condition of operator A～C shown in Figure 19 (A)～(C), the evaluation of estimate E of operator A be-10≤E＜-5 ,+the evaluation of estimate E of 5＜E≤+ 10 o'clock, operator B be-8≤E＜-3 ,+the evaluation of estimate E of 3＜E≤+ 8 o'clock, operator C be-12≤E＜-7 ,+7＜E≤+ 12 o'clock are respectively the state of ' fatigue is arranged '.

Therefore, consider that recovering indication as energy under the state of ' fatigue is arranged ' advises ' rests ', and then, under the state of ' tired big ', recover indication advice ' changing shifts ' as energy.Figure 21 is such the carrying out of expression recovers the operation indication processing of indication according to the fractionated energy of fatigue strength a flow chart.In addition, the flow chart of this Figure 21 is equivalent to after the step S63 of Figure 18, considers the convenience of paper, and the step till that is omitted diagram.

In this Figure 21, same with the step S64 of Figure 18, information processor 8 is differentiated with all operations and is judged that energy recovers still each operator to be judged (step S101).

Then, judging (step S101: not) under the situation that energy recovers with each operator, information processor 8 is based on the fatigue strength information that obtains in step S63, the fatigue strength of judging operator A is which (step S102) of ' normally ', ' fatigue is arranged ', ' tired big ', when ' tired big ',, when ' fatigue is arranged ', operator A is indicated ' rest ' (step S104) to operator A indication ' changing shifts ' (step S103).Specifically, the energy of information processor 8 by will be corresponding with the judged result of fatigue strength recovers indication information and sends near the operator A indicating device 6, thereby on the display of indicating device 6 etc., show that the energy of ' changing shifts ' or ' rests ' recovers to indicate, and operator A is indicated ' changing shifts ' or ' rest '.

In addition, information processor 8 judges that the fatigue strength of operator B is which (step S 105) of ' normally ', ' fatigue is arranged ', ' tired big ', when ' tired big ',, when ' fatigue is arranged ', operator B is indicated ' rest ' (step S107) to operator B indication ' changing shifts ' (step S106).

And then, information processor 8 judges that the fatigue strength of operator C is which (step S108) of ' normally ', ' fatigue is arranged ', ' tired big ', when ' tired big ',, when ' fatigue is arranged ', operator C is indicated ' rest ' (step S110) to operator C indication ' changing shifts ' (step S109).In addition, the judgement among these steps S102, S105, the S108 is not carried out simultaneously passable with as shown time series concurrently yet.

On the other hand, judging with all operations under the situation that energy recovers (step S101: be), information processor 8 judges that the fatigue strength of operator A is which (step S111) of ' normally ', ' fatigue is arranged ', ' tired big ', the fatigue strength of judging operator A is which (step S112) of ' normally ', ' fatigue is arranged ', ' tired big ', and the fatigue strength of judging operator C is which (step S113) of ' normally ', ' fatigue is arranged ', ' tired big '.Then, even when a people ' tired big ' is arranged, operator A, B, C crew are indicated ' changing shifts ' (step S114),, operator A, B, C crew are indicated ' rest ' (step S115) even when having a people ' fatigue to be arranged '.Specifically, the energy of information processor 8 by will be corresponding with the judged result of fatigue strength recovers indication information and is assigned near each of operator A, B, C indicating device 6, thereby on the display of each indicating device 6 etc., show that the energy of ' changing shifts ' or ' rests ' recovers to indicate, and operator crew is indicated ' changing shifts ' or ' rest '.

Then, information processor 8 is judged operation indication processing termination condition (step S116), finishes this operation indication and handle when satisfying condition.In addition, when not satisfying condition, return the step S62 of Figure 18, continue cycle of treatment.

Like this, by the operation indication is provided with a plurality of levels, can carry out the operation indication corresponding with fatigue strength.In addition, under the situation of carrying out so fractionated indication, the manager sets the operation indication information corresponding with fatigue strength by the record portion 83 of 9 pairs of information processors 8 of administrative center, thereby can reflect gerentocratic purpose.

(the 4th embodiment)

In addition, in the above-described embodiment, when not carrying out a series of operation of pre-determined number, the situation of being surveyed the physiological statuss such as pulse in operators 1 the operation by sniffer 3 is that example is illustrated.In this case, for example shown in Figure 22, in a series of operation, beginning from it regularly to the detection that has a plurality of pulses finishing.And for example, operator's pulse is interim rising the owing to moving of the health in a series of operation sometimes.Figure 23 is the figure of the passing of the pulse in a series of operation of expression.In Figure 23, the pulse in during the pulse ratio time 1 in during the time 11 rises about 10.Thereby, using such value that has deviation to carry out may not carrying out suitable judgement under the situation of judgement of fatigue strength.

Therefore, for example shown in Figure 24, consider to survey physiological status, thereby judge fatigue strength in the starting point of a series of operation.

In this case, firing switch 5 not only when the starting of operation indication mechanism, is also pushed once by the operator when the beginning of a series of operation at every turn.And, for example, once survey during a series of operation under the situation of pulse in every execution, when this firing switch 5 was pressed, operator's pulse was detected.

Figure 25 is the flow chart that the starting point that is illustrated in so a series of operation is surveyed the processing of pulse.In addition, the flow chart of this Figure 25 is the processing of carrying out in the step S5 of Fig. 2.

At first, information processor 8 is differentiated operator 1 and whether has been pushed firing switch 5 (step S121), when having pushed (step S121: be), obtains operator 1 pulse value (step S122).For example, information processor 8 receive from firing switch 5 switch press signal the time, sniffer 3 is sent the request signal of pulse Value Datas.And information processor 8 receives the pulse Value Data that sniffer 3 goes out according to request detection by communicator 7.In addition, sniffer 3 itself detects pressing of firing switcies 5, surveys the pulse Value Data detecting when pressing, thereby it is also passable to supply to information processor 8.

Like this, in the 4th embodiment of the present invention, with sniffer 3 survey physiological statuss arbitrarily one of regularly with the operator to the operations linkage in the operation of firing switch 5, use the value that detects with the operations linkage of firing switch 5 to compare comparison in the portion 84.

Thus, according to the operation indication mechanism of the 4th embodiment of the present invention,, also can carry out the good judgement of fatigue strength even in a series of operation, produce in the physiological status such as pulse under the situation of deviation.

In addition, the present invention does not break away from generalized spirit and scope of the present invention and can carry out various embodiments and distortion.In addition, above-mentioned embodiment is used to illustrate the present invention rather than is used to limit scope of the present invention.In other words, the various distortion of implementing in the scope of scope of the present invention and the invention meaning equal with it are considered as in the scope of the present invention.
