[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In estimating the repair of an accident vehicle, it is desired to accurately estimate the repair work by eliminating missing parts for repair work, parts to be ordered for purchase, and painting work. It is also desired that this estimation be performed as quickly as possible with the simplest operation.

[0003]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a work item, a part name, and a painting work for estimating a repair cost, etc., accurately and with excellent operability in repairing an accident vehicle. It is an object of the present invention to provide an apparatus and a method for estimating a repair of an accident vehicle.

[0004]

According to the present invention, there is provided first input means for inputting a position where an impact force has acted on the body of an automobile, and second input means for inputting a level indicating the magnitude of the magnitude of the impact force. And (1) one or more parts that are required when performing a repair operation, with the intention and relationship of repairing the damage to the vehicle body due to an impact corresponding to the position and the level. (2) a work item representing one or more repair work belonging to each part, (3) a memory for storing part names of one or more parts belonging to each part, display means, first and second parts, 2. In response to each output from the input means, determine a part, a work item, and a part name corresponding to the input position and level, and read the work item and the part name belonging to the determined part from the memory. Display by display means A repair estimate device accident vehicle, characterized in that it comprises a control means for causing.

According to the present invention, a position where an impact load or impact energy, which is a single or a plurality of impact forces from the outside, applied to a vehicle body, and a level indicating the magnitude of the impact force are input. The factors are: (1) one or more parts that are required when performing repair work, (2) work items representing one or more repair work belonging to each part, and (3) each part. The part names of one or a plurality of parts to be ordered for purchase belonging to the group can be obtained as a list or the like. The level of the magnitude of the impact force at the level may be continuous or stepped.

In the repair estimating apparatus of the present invention, one or more external impact forces on the vehicle body are not treated as a quantitative or absolute one, but as a level that is a relative magnitude. This is because the degree of damage to the vehicle body must be ascertained by visual confirmation of the accident vehicle or its image. That is, in the present invention, it is not necessary to input a quantitative or absolute value of the impact force.

[0007] The operator of the repair estimating apparatus of the present invention visually confirms the actual thing of the accident vehicle or its image,
Imagine the position and level where single or multiple external impact forces act. Therefore, the position and level of the impact force are images generated by visually confirming the accident vehicle or its image, that is, related concepts. First and second
The position and the level input by the input means are not objective "positions and magnitudes of one or more external impact forces on the vehicle body of the automobile", and do not mean a precise concept thereof. This means that, according to the present invention, (1) one or a plurality of parts that are required when performing a repair work, (2) a work item representing one or a plurality of repair works belonging to each part, 3) Obtaining a list of one or more parts names of one or more parts belonging to each part does not hinder the estimation of the repair of the accident vehicle, but is a factor more suitable for achieving the estimation of the repair. ing. This is because the background and intention to repair damage to the vehicle body due to such an impact force.

The repair content in the repair estimating apparatus of the present invention is a related concept which is an image generated by visually confirming an accident vehicle or its image, and means an objective damage state of a vehicle body itself or a precise concept thereof. do not do. Therefore, the repair estimating apparatus of the present invention provides (1) an objective position and level of an external single or multiple impacts on the vehicle body, and (2) objective damage to the vehicle body. It does not seek out and conceptualize an objective correlation with the state. In the present invention,
Rather, high efficiency is realized at low cost by avoiding such a high level of conceptualization.

The above-mentioned image of the present invention, that is, the related concept will be described. An image is an image of another dimension in another world different from itself, and contradicts itself from the beginning. The more precise the concept of itself, the more it becomes more precise,
Purify in the direction of conceptualization (so-called sticking to the method), and lose the actuality of the relationship with itself. In fact, when in a position related to the thing, the image rises, not the thing itself, the concept of the thing. For example, a repair work item is an image generated not by the work item itself (the objective itself) but by the intention and relationship of performing the repair work, which is the same even when the work item is replaced with a part and a quote. . The will for the object and the desire for a relationship with the object
Generate images. In other words, the image, that is, the relation concept, is not the object itself, not the concept of the object, but sticks to the intention and relation to the object. Therefore, in the present invention, the term image or related concept is used as described above to distinguish it from the object itself and the concept.

[0010] The above-mentioned parts are "one or a plurality of parts which may be required when performing repair work".
It is. It is not a structural part of an automobile, is not a functionally divided part in relation to other parts in design, and is not a set of subdivided parts in manufacturing. The parts in this system are, as a relational concept, imaged by those who have the intention and relationship to repair or who have the intention and relationship to make an estimate necessary for repair by looking at the accident vehicle or its images. "Site"
It is. Since the concept of the relationship is based on the intention and relationship to repair, it is more suitable for the purpose of obtaining a quotation required for repair than the precise concept of the structure, design and manufacturing of the vehicle itself or its precise concept.

The parts are based on a relational concept that a limited part of the vehicle body or a limited part of the whole repair work appears as a part in response to an active approach of repair work. . The concept of this part is used as an intermediate term between individual vehicle types, individual work items and individual part names, or as a hierarchical concept. Therefore, the repair work items and component names are hierarchized and systematized for each individual vehicle model, with the part as an intermediate term. The site is
As described above, not only the body part but also the whole or a part of the repair work is included.

Regarding the above-mentioned work items, “one or more work items belonging to each part” and the standard work man-hour (index) are based on the background that a worker having a certain skill works under a certain diligence. The will and relationship to do exist. Not only the standard work steps (index), but also the work items themselves are standardized by workers who have the intention and relationship to repair the accident vehicle or by images of workers. Therefore, it is clear that the plurality of work items belonging to each part and the standard work man-hours (index) obtained by this standardization are work as a related concept imaged by visually observing the accident vehicle or its image, and it is objective. It is more appropriate for the purpose of obtaining the quotation needed for repair than the exact work itself or its precise concept.

Regarding the above-mentioned parts, “part names of parts to be ordered for purchase of one or more belonging to each part”
Is not the part itself damaged by the external impact force, but the relationship concept that the person who has the intention and relationship to repair or the person who has the intention and relationship to make the estimate necessary for repair images the purchase. It is a purchased part and is more suitable for the purpose of obtaining the quotation needed for repair. This is because a damaged part is not always replaced and may be allowed to stand. Also, a decision may be made to repair the part instead of purchasing the part.

The display means displays the parts of the body of the accident vehicle, the work items, and the parts as shown in FIG. 11, and can add or delete them as shown in FIGS. 15 and 16.

And / or conflicting component name combinations are avoided.

The estimated repair cost is calculated based on the selected part, work item, and part name.
The display by the display means 5 is performed, and the printing on the recording paper 7 by the printer 6 is performed.

FIG. 6 is a simplified diagram for explaining the relationship among parts, work items, and part names. The work item B1, B2, B3 and the part name b1, b
2, b3, and b4 are hierarchized, systematized, and set. The part is a hierarchical concept for organizing the data of the work items and the part names into the types of automobiles. In this way, a large amount of precise data stored in the recording medium 2 enables comfortable operation in searching and processing, and facilitates selection of each data of a repair work item and a part name for each part.

The part is identified by attaching a part name of a part constituting the body of the automobile or a work item for performing a repair work. For example, the part B is identified as a front bumper, and the work item B1 may be a front bumper assembly replacement, the work item B2 may be a front bumper assembly attachment / detachment, and the work item B3 may be a front bumper face replacement.
