2. Description of the Related Art Generally, automobile manufacturers in advanced countries
Due to the globalization of car production due to reduced manufacturing costs and the importance of the global market, knockdown production of cars has increased in many countries. In knockdown production, automakers place orders for parts required at knockdown assembly sites overseas in the domestic shipping department, and collectively manage the parts shipping schedule based on the order in the domestic shipping department. ing.

In knockdown production, various parts to be shipped to an assembly site are manufactured by the company's own manufacturing division or a part manufacturer of the company or another company (hereinafter referred to as the "parts manufacturing department"), and are scheduled to be shipped to the assembly site. And bring it to the shipping department in time. At this time, individual parts are sporadically carried in from a remote parts manufacturing department. Since the shipping department cannot ship until all parts ordered by the assembly site are completed, the parts sporadically delivered must be kept in a predetermined parts warehouse. When a large number of knockdown assembly parts are stored in a warehouse for a long period of time, warehouse space, labor costs for inventory management, etc. are required, and as a result, supply costs of knockdown production assembly parts are increased. Therefore, even if you order various parts from each part manufacturing department,
2. Description of the Related Art There is known a component loading instruction system that enables components to be transported from a component manufacturing department to a shipping department in accordance with a shipping schedule of each component to an assembly place.

FIG. 11 is a diagram for explaining a conventional component loading instruction system. Loading instruction system 10 for this part
Reference numeral 0 denotes an assembly component carry-in instruction system disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 11-96213. In this system, based on the sales information data 128 of the finished product, aggregation of die units for sorting parts from the various master files 130 and 132 (S132), and upper and lower limit check of the withdrawal for collating with the production capacity of each part manufacturing department (S132) S134), a correction process based on the working day difference for adjusting the finish date and the carry-in date of the component (S13)
6) The actual delivery date of each part is calculated (S138).

[0005] In this part loading instruction system 100,
The order amount determined by each of the above-described processes (S132 to S138) is summarized in the kanban stake data 144.
In addition, the secret data 122 based on past order results, the carry-in date adjusted to the operating day of the packaging location of each component, and the above-described kanban dispense data 144 are transmitted to each component manufacturing department. Each manufacturing business unit makes a production plan schedule by predicting the order quantity for the next month from the secret data 122.

FIG. 12 is a view for explaining a conventional shipping management system for managing a shipping schedule of parts. This shipment management system 200 is a shipment management system that manages a shipping schedule of components disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 2531180. In this shipment management system 200, the host computer 211 of the assembly / manufacturing department at the assembly site sends a shipment request for necessary parts 206 to the host computer 20 of the shipping department.
Order 1 When this shipping request is received by the host computer 201 of the parts shipping department, the barcode for this shipping request is printed out on the shipping instruction 203 by the barcode printer 202.

[0007] The shipping instruction 203 is sent to the management department of the parts warehouse, and the worker sends the instruction to the personal computer 205.
The shipping information is input by the barcode reader 204 and the corresponding part 206 is taken out from the shelf while looking at each display item of the shipping information. Next, the removed part 2
The barcode 207 attached to the reference numeral 06 is read by the barcode reader 204 and input to the personal computer 205. As a result, all the parts 206 can be stored in the predetermined packaging container 208 while collating with the shipping information.
The shipping instruction sheet 203 can be attached to the packing container 208 and shipped to the assembly / manufacturing department at the assembly site.

[0008] The assembling / manufacturing section of the assembling site takes out each part 206 from the received packing container 208 while taking out the parts 206 from the handy terminal 21 of the host computer 211.
0 and another barcode reader 209, the component 206
Is read to confirm that the parts 206 already ordered have arrived. The part information of the part 206 confirmed at this time is transmitted again to the host computer 201 of the shipping department via the host computer 211. According to this system, a shipment request from the assembly manufacturing department at the assembly site to the shipping department, packing at the shipping department, shipping of parts to the assembly manufacturing department at the assembly site, confirmation of parts at the assembly manufacturing department at the assembly site, Information can be centrally managed until the information of the confirmed parts is sent to the shipping department.

[0009]

However, in the latter conventional system described above, data relating to the number of shipments together with the shipping date etc. remains in the order data from the assembly / manufacturing department at the assembly site as a plan. However, no data remains on the actual number of parts packaged and shipped in the shipping department. For this reason, the number of parts should be confirmed by associating with the data of the order from the assembly / manufacturing department at the assembly site, or the data of the plan related to the packaging used when actually packing the parts in the shipping department. I can only do it. Therefore, when confirming the number of parts in the assembly / manufacturing section at the assembly site, the number of parts in the order data issued by the assembly / manufacturing section is compared with the number of parts delivered to the assembly / manufacturing section to determine the number of parts. Checking.

Further, in the above-mentioned conventional system, when there is a shortage of parts in the assembly / manufacturing department at the assembly site, data regarding the number of parts actually packaged and shipped is not recorded as a result, so that even the domestic shipping department side. At present, even the assembly / manufacturing departments of overseas assembly sites cannot confirm the number of parts actually packaged and shipped. Therefore, if there is a shortage of parts in the assembly / manufacturing department at the assembly site, whether the shortage is due to loss or theft at the assembly site, or if there is a shortage at the time of shipment from the shipping department. Could not be confirmed. Therefore, the shipping department does not check the number of parts for the shortage requested by the assembly / manufacturing section of the assembly site, and believes that the request from the assembly / manufacturing section of the assembly site is correct, and Had been sent to the manufacturing department. At this time, the shipping department paid for the shortage of parts and all costs related to shipping.

As described above, when a shortage of parts occurs in an assembly manufacturing department in an assembly place such as an overseas location, there is a demand for a system capable of confirming the number of parts actually shipped by a domestic shipping department. In other words, when packaging parts to be shipped in the shipping department,
By counting and recording the number of parts actually packed in containers and organizing the recorded data so that it can be checked when necessary, shortage due to loss or theft at the assembly site can be avoided. It is desirable to be able to eliminate the possibility of fraud and to sell the missing parts. For the above reasons, there is a demand for a system which correctly records the number of parts to be shipped from the shipping department to the assembly manufacturing department at the assembly site, and which can be easily checked by the related parties when necessary.

An object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problem by forming, in a knockdown production shipping department, quantity data relating to parts to be shipped to an assembly manufacturing department at an assembly site as a viewing table, If there is a complaint such as a shortage of parts from the assembly manufacturing department,
Another object of the present invention is to provide a knockdown production parts shipment number confirmation system capable of quickly confirming the number of parts actually shipped.

Hereinafter, storage of the counted number of components will be described with reference to FIG. This explanation
This corresponds to the detailed description of the procedure P104 shown in FIG.

The packaging / shipping plan database 15 stores the packaging / shipping plan created by the packaging / shipping planning system 14 as described above. From the packing / shipping plan database 15, a plan of parts to be packed on the day is extracted (P201). A weight management table indicating the unit weight of each part (or group of parts) corresponding to the order 10A is read from the weight management database (P202). The person in charge of the packaging works looks at the packaging plan displayed on the screen of the display device of the personal computer terminal, checks the parts to be stored in the container and the number of parts, stores the parts in the container, The total weight is weighed (P203). The total number of parts in the container is counted by dividing the total weight of the entire container by the unit weight of the part (P204). After putting the number of parts as shown in the plan related to packaging into the container, seal the container and set the date, time, part name, and part N.
o. ”,“ total weight ”,“ unit weight ”,“ number ”,“ person in charge ”, etc. are stored in the result database 19 as result data in association with the“ packing lot No. ”.

The "plan of parts to be packed on the day" in the procedure P201 is a plan relating to the packaging prepared by the packaging / shipping planning system 14, and is a plan stored in the packaging / shipping planning database 15. is there. The plan relating to the packaging is to instruct a packaging person in charge of a part name and the number of parts. Procedure P202, P203, P20
Step 4 is preferably performed by a counting device including a weight measuring device (weighing scale) and a number calculating means. In the weight management database in the procedure P202, parts and unit weights of the parts are stored in association with each other. For this reason, in order for the person in charge to count the parts, it is sufficient to apply a container containing the parts to the counting device. The counting device divides the total weight of the entire container including the part by the unit weight of the part to count the part. The number of parts counted by the counting device is “date”, “time”, “part name”, “part N”.
o., "gross weight", "unit weight", "person in charge", etc., and the results in the results database 19 connected online with the counting device in association with the "packing lot No." Stored as data. In the above, the counting device is a personal computer (CP
U), and the number calculation means is realized as a calculation function in a personal computer.

FIG. 6 is a block diagram of a portion including the counting device 30 for storing the number of shipments. The counting device 30 includes a number calculating means 31 and a weight measuring device 32, a display device 33 for displaying a plan to a person in charge, an input device 34 including a keyboard and a button input section, and a floppy disk (registered). An output device 35 for outputting to a storage medium such as a trademark (trademark) disk or the like, a paper, a transmitting / receiving unit 36, and a CPU 37 for making these function. The transmission / reception unit 36 includes a weight management database 38 having the performance database 19,
Data is transmitted and received to and from the packaging / shipping plan database 15 via a telecommunication line such as online.

For example, when the person in charge of packing the screws X in the plan relating to the packaging, the second person displays the name of the parts (in this case, “screw X”), the number of the parts, and the display of the counting device 30 in the plan relating to the packaging. The unit weight of the component displayed on the device 33 is confirmed. After the confirmation, the screw X is put in the container, and the container is placed on the weight measuring device 32 of the counting device 30 to count the number thereof, and the button provided on the counting device 30 is pressed,
The work actually performed is left in the result database 19 as result data. At this time, as described above, the result database 19 stores “date”, “time”, “part name”, “part number”, “gross weight”, “unit weight”, “quantity”, and “person in charge”. , "Packing lot No." and the like.
The performance database 19 is a part of the aforementioned weight management database 38. The data content of the performance database 19 is stored in a storage medium of another format by the output device 35 as needed, or is output on paper.

FIG. 7 is an example of a weight management table of the weight management database. The weight management table is a table necessary for the counting device when the person in charge of packaging the parts stores the parts in the container and counts them according to the table of the plan relating to the packaging of the parts. The weight management table is displayed on the screen of the personal computer terminal device. The counting device requires unit weights of various parts in order to count the number of parts by dividing the total weight of the parts put in the container by the unit weight of the corresponding parts. The weight management table shows various “part names” and “part No.” and “unit weight of parts” corresponding to the respective parts. When a person in charge performs packaging according to a table of a plan for packaging parts, the unit weight of the corresponding parts is input to the counting device for each part from the weight management table.

For example, when a screw X is included in the package plan, “Screw X” is obtained from the weight management table of the weight management database.
The unit weight of “19.07” grams is the part number “X111”.
Using the key "1" as a key, it is input to the counting device. The person in charge
After confirming whether or not the weight of the part to be packed is the unit weight, the part is stored in a container, the container containing the part is set in a counting device, and the number of parts in the container is counted. At this time, the counting device counts the number of parts in the container by dividing the total weight of the parts in the container by the input unit weight.

FIG. 8 shows an example of the result data in the result database 19. The actual data is based on the "number" of parts that were actually measured by the person in charge of packaging the parts, put them in a container, weighed them, and counted them with a counter, and the "date", "time", and " Part name '', `` Part N
o. ", the container's" gross weight ", the part's" unit weight ", the" person in charge ", the" packing lot number ", and the like. "Packing lot No."
Is “Packing Lot N” in the packaging and shipping plan of FIG.
o. ".

For example, when the work is performed in accordance with the procedure shown in FIG. 5, the packing lot No. “○ △ ×” is obtained as the performance data at the time “14:25” on the date “11/10”.
01 ”, part number“ X1111 ”,
There remains data that the unit weight “19.07” gram is “300” pieces and the total weight “5,730” gram is packed by the person in charge “Otsu”.

FIG. 9 is a flow chart showing an example of how the system for confirming the number of shipments according to the present embodiment corresponds to a case in which a complaint for a shortage of parts comes from the assembly and manufacturing department 10. Hereafter, when a component shortage complaint comes, the shipping department 1
A description will be given with reference to a flowchart in which the number of shipments of the part is checked on the first side.

A part shortage consisting of "knockdown order lot No.", "part No." and "number of parts" is transferred from the assembly manufacturing department 10 of the knockdown production assembly site overseas to the shipping department 11 existing in Japan. A complaint comes (P301).
Using the “knockdown order lot No.” of the parts shortage complaint from the assembly manufacturing department 10 as a key, the “packing lot No.” related to this “knockdown order lot No.” is packaged and shipped. Search from the database 15 (P302). The result data relating to the retrieved “packing lot No.” is extracted from the result database 19 (P303). From the extracted performance data, a part with a parts shortage complaint is extracted using “part No.” as a key (P304).

For example, from the assembly / manufacturing section 10 to the shipping section 1
To 1, knockdown order lot No. "ABC1"
Suppose that a part shortage complaint has been made that the part number "X1111" is insufficient for "10" parts. In this case, first, from the packaging / shipping plan database 14, using the knockdown order lot number "ABC1" as a key, the packing lot number related to the knockdown order lot number "ABC1". Search for “○ △ × 01”. Next, the result data relating to the packing lot No. “△ Δ × 01” is extracted from the result database 19. From the extracted performance data, the part related to the parts shortage claim is extracted using the part number “X1111” as a key, and the actual packaging status is confirmed. Referring to FIG. 8, here, the part No. “X1111” has the date “11”.
At the time “14:25” on “/ 10”, the person in charge “Otsu” received “300” pieces and the date “11/10” at the time “14:25”.
26, "300" pieces were packed by the person in charge "A", and "300" pieces were packed by the person in charge "Otsu" at the time "14:29" on the date "11/10". Can be. At this time, it is also possible to check the packaging and shipping plan relating to the packaging and the actual data in association with each other.

FIG. 10 is an overall view of a system for confirming the number of shipped knockdown production parts according to a second embodiment of the present invention. A terminal device 40 is provided in the assembly / manufacturing section 10 of an overseas assembly site. The terminal apparatus 40 is connected to a host computer 42 of the shipping section 11 located in Japan via a network 41. The host computer 42 of the shipping department 11 is connected to the performance database 19. For this reason, not only in the shipping department 11,
Even in the assembly / manufacturing section 10 existing overseas, the results database 19 connected to the host computer 42 can be searched through the network 41. In the event that a shortage of parts occurs in the assembly and manufacturing department 10 existing overseas, without inquiring the shipping department 11 by telephone, facsimile or e-mail, it is possible to determine whether or not the missing ordered parts are actually packaged and shipped as ordered. Confirmation can be taken quickly.

[0041]

As is apparent from the above description, according to the present invention, the number of ordered parts to be shipped to the assembly / manufacturing department at the assembly site is actually measured in the shipping department for shipping knockdown production parts to the assembly site. Since the data is left as data, when there is a complaint such as a complaint of a shortage of ordered parts from the assembling / manufacturing department of the assembling place, it is possible to accurately and promptly confirm the number of actual shipments. In addition, the person in charge and the third party can utilize data such as the degree of variation in component weight in real time, and can confirm the data.
