Description

  The present invention relates to a device for preventing misidentification of a bag and a remains used to smoothly perform a series of rituals in a place.

  In the Sakai, which is equipped with a cremation furnace, when a hearse arrives at the front of the building, the attendant goes to pick up the kite with a special cart and carry the kite to the farewell room for a farewell ceremony. When the farewell ceremony is over, the coffin is carried to the front of the cremation furnace doors that are lined up, and one of the doors is opened and the coffin is inserted into the cremation furnace, and the cremation takes place. When the cremation is over, the trolley cart goes to the front of the cremation furnace door, opens the door and carries the remains to the trolley, and the relatives put the remains in the urn.

  In the Seira, several cremations are performed per day, and several cremations may be performed simultaneously. There are several cremation furnaces side by side, but there are many identically shaped doors, and since the remains are indistinguishable from others, there is no difference in the remains among the bereaved family. Some people are worried. In order to get rid of such worries, the staff of Sejo have been taking measures such as checking the name of the deceased every time.

  The Seira accepts ceremonial requests over the phone, etc., and creates a plan that determines the allocation of cremation furnaces and farewell rooms every day, and the staff works while watching this. However, the plan cannot be presented in a place that is visible to many people such as attendees, so there is a part that depends on the memory of the staff to some extent. And since the cremation furnace has the same shape of the doors as described above, there is a risk of misunderstandings such as carrying firewood into a cremation furnace different from the original plan or collecting the remains of a different cremation furnace as well. There is. Such a misplacement must never be in an important ritual that ends a person's life, but there was no guarantee that misunderstanding could be completely prevented by a method that relied solely on the memory and attention of the staff. . In addition, there are many banquet halls where a farewell ceremony is held prior to cremation and an archaeological room where the remains are placed in the urn. There is a risk of entering the room.

  The present invention was developed based on such circumstances, and is effective in preventing mistakes such as misplacement and carrying out cremation ceremonies smoothly when transporting urns and remains, and preventing false recognition of urns and remains. The purpose is to provide a device.

  The invention according to claim 1 for achieving the above object is a computer that stores at least a plurality of cremation furnaces, and stores an operation plan of each carriage in a place where the carriage is used for transporting the coffin and remains. A terminal device attached to each carriage and capable of receiving and displaying the operation plan via a transmitter, and installed in at least each cremation furnace to transmit signals from the computer and the terminal device in both directions A communication device, and the terminal device is capable of transmitting an ID code signal assigned to the cart, and the cart that generates the ID code signal enters a reception area of each communication device. When each of the communication devices receives the ID code signal and transmits it to the computer, the computer, when the received ID code signal does not match the operation plan, A warning signal to the terminal unit of the carriage through the vessel, the terminal unit that has received the warning signal is a misidentification prevention device coffin and the remains that can inform issues an alarm.

  Here, the place where the subject of the present invention is subjected is a scale that allows a plurality of deceased rituals to be performed at the same time, and it is essential to have several cremation furnaces. In addition, the present invention can be used to prevent misidentification of a room to be used for a farewell room for performing a farewell ceremony and a bone collecting room for storing remains. Inside the sanctuary, the carcasses and remains are transported by their own carts, and when they move, they are always accompanied by the staff of the city, and from the time they arrive at the city to the cremation furnace, the same cart is used. Used through. As a matter of course, a plurality of carts for scissors and bone collecting are prepared. And this invention is divided roughly and is comprised from the terminal device, the computer, and the communication device.

  A computer is installed in the city hall to manage various information. When you enter the name of the deceased and the date and time of the ceremony, a cremation furnace and a farewell room are assigned, and this series of information is stored in the database. In the present invention, simultaneously with the assignment of the cremation furnace or the like, the cart used for transporting the coffin and the remains is specified, and the ID code assigned to the cart is also stored in the database. Furthermore, the computer automatically creates an operation plan that determines the usage time and the moving place for each cart based on the database.

  The terminal unit is integrated with the carriage, and since it transmits and receives information using radio waves, etc., it has a communication function, and an ID code assigned so that each individual carriage can be identified is assigned to each terminal unit. It is remembered. While the terminal is powered on, a signal carrying this ID code is always transmitted to the outside via the communication function. In addition, a monitor using a liquid crystal panel or the like is provided to provide information to the accompanying staff, and the operation plan of the cart can be displayed. This operation plan is sent from the computer to the transmitter at the start of work or the like, and is transmitted from the transmitter to all terminals via radio waves.

  In addition to individual cremation furnaces, the communicators are installed in individual rooms as necessary, and are connected to a computer via a network. An ID code sent from a terminal that approaches one of the communicators. Has a function of transferring the received signal to the computer and a function of transmitting a signal from the computer to the terminal. That is, it plays a role of relaying signals exchanged between the computer and the terminal. In addition, it is desirable to install the communication device in front of the cremation furnace or in the vicinity of the entrance of the room so that the cremation furnace or the trolley approaching the room can be detected.

  When one of the carts approaches one of the communication devices and the ID code signal transmitted from the terminal of the cart enters the reception area of the communication device, the communication device receives the ID code signal and sends it to the computer. An ID code is notified. The computer refers to the operation plan from the ID code and determines whether the cart is approaching the planned cremation furnace or room. This criterion is based on the operation sequence of the carriage, the time, etc., but a certain amount of error is allowed for the time. Therefore, when it is determined that the approach is illegal, a warning signal is issued to the terminal through the communication device. The terminal device constantly monitors a warning signal sent to its own ID code, and when it actually receives the warning signal, it can issue an alarm to notify the staff. For this alarm, a method of displaying some message on the monitor or making a sound can be mentioned, but the form can be freely selected. Note that the reception area refers to a range in which only the ID code signal of a cart approaching a cremation furnace or a room can be reliably detected and the ID code signal of a cart in another distance cannot be detected.

  Various methods such as radio waves, infrared rays, and ultrasonic waves are used for transmission of operation plans from the transmitter to the terminal and transmission / reception of signals between the transmitter and the terminal as long as reliability is ensured. It is possible and is not limited to a specific method.

  By configuring in this way, the operation plan is displayed on the monitor of the terminal fixed to the cart, so there is no need for the staff to memorize and confirm the schedule in advance, and a cremation furnace or room different from the schedule When the carriage is moved closer to the vehicle, it is possible to detect this erroneous approach and quickly notify the staff, thereby preventing mistakes.

  Next, the invention according to claim 2 comprises a computer that stores a driving plan of each carriage, and a computer that stores the operation plan of each carriage in a place where a carriage is used for transporting the coffin and remains as a plurality of cremation furnaces. A terminal that can receive and display the operation plan via a transmitter, a communication device installed in each cremation furnace to transmit signals from the computer and the terminal in both directions, and a front of the cremation furnace A door opening / closing device capable of closing the door so that the door cannot be opened, and the terminal device is capable of transmitting an ID code signal assigned to the cart, and each of the carts that emit the ID code signal When entering the reception area of the communication device, each of the communication devices receives the ID code signal and transmits it to the computer, while the computer is inconsistent with the operation plan. A warning signal is issued to the terminal of the cart via the communication device, and the terminal that has received the warning signal issues a warning and sends a command from the computer to the door opening / closing device of the cremation furnace. It is a device for preventing misidentification of urns and remains that can be closed unreleasably.

  Here, the door opening and closing device is installed in each cremation furnace, and has a function of preventing this even if the door is intentionally opened. The door opening / closing device is connected to a computer via a network so that this function can be remotely controlled. If the cart approaches a cremation furnace different from the schedule, as in the invention according to claim 1, the computer grasps the situation and a warning is issued from the terminal to the staff, and at the same time as in the present invention, A command is sent to the cremation furnace door opening and closing device so that the door cannot be opened. By comprising in this way, when making a trolley approach the cremation furnace different from a plan, since the door of a cremation furnace does not open, misidentification can be prevented reliably.

  As the invention of claim 1, by attaching a terminal equipped with a monitor to the carriage, the attendant can confirm information such as the name of the deceased and the cremation furnace to be used and its time at any time, so it depends on memory It is possible to grasp the plan without fail, and the cart with the urn goes to the prescribed cremation furnace, and after the completion of the cremation, the prescribed cart goes to the prescribed cremation furnace and collects the remains, so an unforeseen situation that the remains are left behind Can be prevented. Moreover, even if the attendant mistakes the display on the monitor, the computer grasps this situation, issues a warning signal from the communication device, and issues a warning from the terminal device that received this using a monitor display, sound, etc. This makes it possible for the staff to be aware of misperceptions and take corrective actions. In addition to the cremation furnace, if a communication device is also installed at the entrance of the farewell room or ostriching room, an alarm will be issued and the staff will be misidentified even when attempting to transport the urns and remains to a room different from the plan. Recognize and correct action is possible.

  As in the invention of claim 2, when the cart carrying the coffin or the cart carrying the remains remains close to the cremation furnace different from the plan, the door of the cremation furnace is closed so that it cannot be opened. It is possible to completely prevent the dissection of the remains due to the uncertain memories and assumptions of the staff, and to proceed with a series of rituals while maintaining dignity and dignity suitable for the end of life without causing any discomfort to the bereaved family.
