Description

  The present invention relates to a vehicle part selection system that selects parts that require replacement or repair on a screen when repairing a damaged vehicle, and more particularly to a vehicle part that can be usefully used in an automobile repair estimation system or the like. It relates to the selection system.

  Conventionally, when estimating automobile repairs, it is necessary to consider not only damaged parts to be replaced or repaired, but also related parts and work on these parts. A system has been proposed for identifying necessary parts and operations using the illustration data shown in FIG.

  As this type of prior art, for example, there is a vehicle repair cost estimation system shown in Patent Document 1 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-2559597) previously proposed by the present applicant.

  In the vehicle repair estimation system described in Patent Document 1, images of parts to be assembled at a damaged site designated by a user are displayed in a list on a display device, and the parts required for repairing the damaged site are listed from the parts list.

JP 2002-2559597 A Japanese Examined Patent Publication No. 7-101423 Japanese Patent Publication No. 6-48199 JP 2002-329101 A

  Automobile parts to be repaired vary from large to small. In order to accurately grasp and confirm the shape of the parts displayed as illustrations, it is indispensable to enlarge or reduce the illustrations. is there.

  At the same time, the data used to draw illustrations of parts has been formed in raster images such as bitmap format because of the relationship with the system. Problems such as being jagged or being unable to draw small parts such as screws occur.

  SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a vehicle part selection system and an automobile repair estimation system that can clearly display the outline even when a small part is enlarged and displayed.

  Also, in the past, in a system that simply displays an illustration of a part, this illustration is positioned as a reference for selecting a repaired part, so the input person must eventually select from the part names. Therefore, it is not easy for an input person who is not familiar with repair work, part names, and part shapes to select repair parts.

  Therefore, as shown in Patent Document 4, it is conceivable to select one of the part name and the part illustration so that the other corresponding to the part is displayed in different colors to clarify the mutual relationship. When the method is adopted, a new problem arises regarding illustration drawing.

  That is, when changing the image color of an illustration or the like, it is necessary to compare the original image with the color to be colored, so that the illustration must be created with the raster data. At the same time, the raster data drawing has a problem that the outline becomes jagged at the time of enlargement as described above, or that a small part such as a screw cannot be drawn.

  On the other hand, when an illustration of a part or the like is created as vector data, the color cannot be changed.

  Therefore, in the past, after all, changing the color of the image according to the selection and smoothly drawing the contour of the image have been contradictory effects that cannot be enjoyed simultaneously.

  Therefore, the second object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle part selection system and an automobile repair estimation system that can change the color of an image according to the selection and can smoothly draw the outline of the image. To do.

  A third object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle parts selection system and an automobile repair estimation system that allow easy input of data when selecting parts that require replacement or repair.

  Furthermore, the present invention fourthly provides a vehicle part selection system and an automobile repair estimation system that can reliably input data when selecting a part that requires replacement or repair without omission. Let it be an issue.

  In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a vehicle parts selection system and an automobile repair estimation system in which part illustration data is created in a vector data format.

  That is, as a solution to the above problem, according to the present invention, a vehicle part selection system for selecting parts on the screen that require replacement or repair when a damaged vehicle is repaired, the vehicle part selection system includes: Output means configured to include display means, storage means for storing vehicle part information including part illustration data for each part, and extraction of part illustration data stored in the storage means, A processing device that displays on the display means as an illustration, and an input means that directly or indirectly identifies the component illustration displayed on the display means, and the component illustration data is stored in a vector data format Vehicle parts characterized in that the vehicle parts further include an enlarged display means for enlarging a part illustration displayed on the display means. Constant system is provided.

  According to the vehicle parts selection system of the present invention configured as described above, since the illustration data is created as vector data, the edges are smooth even when enlarged, and a raster format such as a conventional bitmap Unlike the data created in, there are no jagged edges in the outline.

  As a result, even when a large part such as a bumper and a small screw for fixing it to the vehicle are displayed on the same screen, a large image can be confirmed in a reduced state, while a small illustration is enlarged. By doing so, it can be confirmed with a clear outline.

  As an enlarged display means for enlarging and displaying the component illustration displayed on the display means, the processing device performs an operation on the illustration data output to the display device in response to an operation by the input means, and displays the enlarged illustration. This can be done by transmitting an output signal to the display device as illustration data to be displayed.

  Various input devices such as a keyboard and a mouse can be used as an input means for directly or indirectly specifying the part illustration displayed on the display means. In addition to directly selecting the part illustration on the screen, By selecting other display objects on the screen (for example, the names and model numbers of parts shown in the illustration), those that can be selected indirectly are included.

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a vehicle parts selection system that can color the raster data in accordance with the selection of an illustration on the screen.

That performs an operation on the part illustration data, the results provide a vehicle component selecting system and displaying on the display unit as a component illustrations colored in a color different from that of the component illustrations preselection.

  In such a vehicle parts selection system, illustration data is created in a vector format. As described above, even if the displayed illustration is enlarged, the outline does not become jagged, and the illustration that appears on this display device However, when it is selected directly or indirectly by the input means, it is possible to display the vector format data in a different color by performing arithmetic processing on the illustration data constituting the illustration. This provides a vehicle component selection system that can change the color of the image in accordance with the selection and can smoothly draw the contour of the image.

  An operation for changing the color of such vector format data can be performed by multiplying the pixel with an argument for changing the color (for example, a color matrix) at the moment of drawing the selected illustration. it can. That is, the illustration data has a black line area, a white area divided by the black line area, and transparent area information, and multiplies an argument for changing the color to such illustration data. As a result, the transparent area remains transparent, the black line area remains black, and the white area can be changed to a color corresponding to the multiplied argument to be displayed on the display device.

  The operation for changing the color can be performed on the vector data for coloring (multiplication of the color matrix, etc.). That is, the rasterization is performed immediately before the vector data is drawn, and the color matrix is applied to the raster data. This can be implemented by multiplying (multiplying) by.

  Further, the color of the illustration can be changed according to the selection by performing an operation for changing the color on the metadata. That is, each illustration data is created with metadata (drawing command: GDI command) that is information for managing data such as data attributes, meaning contents, storage location, etc. It can also be done by multiplying the argument at the moment of drawing.

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a vehicle parts selection system capable of selecting part illustration data from part names.

  DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, an embodiment of a vehicle parts selection system according to the present invention and an automobile repair estimation system constructed using the same will be described in detail with reference to FIGS.

  First, the automobile repair estimation system according to the present embodiment is constructed by using a vehicle part selection system 20, that is, embodied as a computer (hereinafter referred to as “PC 21”) as shown in FIG. 1.

  The computer 21 is connected to an auxiliary storage device 23 connected through an input / output interface 24, an input device 22 composed of a keyboard or a mouse, a trackball, a touch pad, etc., and further connected to the PC 21 through an input / output interface 27. A display device 28, a printing device 29, and a data output device such as a communication device 32 are included.

  As the auxiliary storage device 23, a floppy (registered trademark) disk device, a hard disk, or an optical disk device can be used. As the input device 22, in addition to a keyboard or the like, OCR, OMR, bar code reader, digitizer, image scanner, A speech recognition device or the like can be used, and as the output device, the drawing device 30 and the multimedia processing device 31 can be used in addition to the display device 28 and the like. Further, since the communication device 32 is provided, it can be connected to another terminal device 36 through a communication line.

  The PC 21 is configured with a main storage device 26 (RAM [hereinafter referred to as memory 26]) and a central processing unit 25 (hereinafter referred to as CPU 25), and is controlled by the OS under the control of the memory 26 or the auxiliary storage device 23. The program that is cached in is started and a predetermined task (process) is executed. The CPU 25 constituting the PC 21 main body fetches instructions from the memory 26 to the CPU 25 based on the arithmetic unit 25b that performs four arithmetic operations, logical operations, and the like on given data and the address of the instruction unit 26a to be executed. And a control device 25a for outputting necessary operation instructions to other devices. As shown in FIG. 1, the control device 25a issues an input control command to the input device 22, etc., issues a memory control command to the memory 26, and issues an output control command to the output device.

  The command input from the input device 22 or the like is first transferred to the memory 26, and the memory 26 selects data and instructions from the given command, and the selected data and instructions are controlled by the control device of the CPU 25. To 25a.

  By the way, the auxiliary storage device 23 corresponds to each vehicle type, vehicle specification data and part data corresponding to the grade of each vehicle type, part data belonging to each part, and each part corresponding thereto. A part name / illustration memory for storing a group of illustration data and repair work content data corresponding to the illustration data of each part is provided. As such repair work content data, the basic part replacement work is stored as the main work, and the work contents corresponding to each main work and the parts necessary for performing the main work are associated with each other. Yes.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the auxiliary storage device 23 is provided with a component memory for storing a vehicle component price and a data group of labor required for replacement or repair of the vehicle. The parts selection system 20 can function as an automobile repair estimation system 21.

  In other words, in the present embodiment, the automobile repair estimation system 21 is constructed by providing the auxiliary storage device of the vehicle part selection system 20 with a part memory for storing the part price, labor cost, and the like.

  The control device 25a decodes repair vehicle data, part name data, illustration data, and commands of the repaired vehicle transferred from the memory 26, and gives necessary operation instructions to the arithmetic device 25b. Then, the arithmetic device 25b performs a logical operation or the like on the given repair vehicle data, illustration data, and command.

  Next, processing in the CPU 25 will be described with a focus on the flowchart of FIG. First, in order to specify the model of the repaired vehicle, repair vehicle data such as manufacturer, vehicle type, grade, and year is input by the input device 22 and transferred to the central processing unit 25 through the input / output interface 24 (step 101).

  Next, the control device 25a of the CPU 25 gives an instruction to read the repair vehicle data and the vehicle attribute data stored in the auxiliary storage device 23 to the arithmetic device 25b (step 102), and the arithmetic device 25b repairs based on this command. The vehicle attribute data corresponding to the vehicle data is retrieved and read into the register (step 103).

  Next, vehicle outline illustration data of the vehicle type is displayed on the display device 28 from the retrieved vehicle attribute data (step 104). The vehicle outer shape illustration data displayed on the display device 28 may be two-dimensional planar graphics or three-dimensional stereoscopic 3D graphics.

  Then, from the overall image of the vehicle displayed on the display device 28, for example, when the front portion of the repair vehicle (near the front bumper) is clicked with the mouse (step 105), the control device 25a issues a command to the arithmetic device 25b. Then, a list of names of parts located near the designated vehicle front is displayed on the display device 28 (step 106, FIG. 2).

  Next, when a damaged part is designated from the part name list on the display device 28 by a mouse or the like (step 107), the control device 25a instructs the arithmetic unit 25b to name all parts corresponding to the designated part. And the illustration are displayed on the component search screen 6 in the display device 28 (step 108, FIG. 3). In particular, in this embodiment, the part names of the parts belonging to the designated damage range are displayed in the part name column 61, and the corresponding part illustration is a component represented separately from the part name column 61. It is displayed in the illustration column 62. Further, the component search screen 6 is provided with an enlarged display means (interface) 63 for enlarging / reducing the component illustration field 62.

  When a specific part to be repaired is designated (or selected) by using a mouse or the like from all the names and illustrations displayed in step 108 (here, “front bumper cover” is selected). In step 109), the control device 25a gives an instruction to the arithmetic device 25b, and the arithmetic device 25b refers to the repair work content data or refers to the part code associated with the part name or the part illustration, and selects the selected part. And the part names and illustrations of the parts related thereto are displayed on the display device 28 in different colors (FIG. 4). For example, in FIG. 4, the bumper cover and the screw for attaching the bumper cover are handled as components that are closely related to each other. In addition, when specifying (selecting) a part to be repaired, it can be performed from the part name (or part code) displayed in the part name field 61 or from the part illustration displayed in the part illustration field 62. In either case, the other color can be changed. Further, as shown in the present embodiment, the component illustration displayed in the component illustration column 62 can be provided with a lead line and a component code can be displayed at the end. When it is formed in this way, by specifying any of “Part Name”, “Part Illustration” and “Part Code”, all the related “Part Name”, “Part Illustration” and “Part Code” will be discolored. Can be configured. That is, it is desirable that these “part name”, “part illustration”, and “part code” are recorded in association with each other using “part code” as an index.

  In particular, in the present embodiment, since the part illustration data stored in the part name / illustration memory is in a vector format, in order to change its color, the arithmetic unit uses an argument for changing the color of the vector data. Is multiplied. Specifically, referring to FIG. 5, for example, the component illustration data is composed of white in the region 52 where the color is changed, black in the line 53 indicating the shape, and colorless in the region 51 where the color is not changed (see FIG. 5). (A)) By multiplying this by an argument for displaying the color to be colored (the image is represented as shown in FIG. 5B), only the white region 52 is obtained as shown in FIG. 5C. Create an illustration with a discolored color. It should be noted that the argument is appropriately selected depending on the comparison with the original color of the color changing region 52 as a matter of course.

  The component illustration data created in such a vector format has a clear outline as shown in FIGS. 6A to 6D even when the image is enlarged, and is shown in FIG. In the drawing reduced to 50%, even a screw that is displayed minutely can be clearly shown in the enlarged view of 1000% in FIG. Therefore, vehicle parts composed of various large and small parts can be clearly displayed on the screen.

  On the screen of the display means, after confirming the parts necessary for repair by reversing the color or the like, the necessary parts are determined (that is, the selection is confirmed). This necessary part can be confirmed by, for example, moving the mouse pointer over the part image and single-clicking, and determining the required part by moving the mouse pointer over the part image and double-clicking. You can do it by clicking.

  When the determination of the parts is completed, the control device 25a stores this in the auxiliary storage device 23 or the data portion 26b of the memory (step 112). Based on this, the control device 25a adds the cost required for repair to the arithmetic device 25b, and The estimation result is displayed on the display device 28. For this integration, the arithmetic unit 25b calculates the cost based on the part price data determined in step 113 and displays the calculation result on the display unit 28 (FIG. 7).

  In the process in the CPU 25, the work contents can be determined together with the parts used for repair. That is, when the part specified in step 107 is a main part belonging to the main work, the control device 25a instructs the arithmetic device 25b to display the work item name list 6c for the main part on the display device 28 in an enlarged manner. (FIG. 8). Then, by selecting a specific work item name from the list work item names with a mouse or the like, the control device 25a instructs the arithmetic device 25b to specify the corresponding work content. The work content specified in this way can calculate the required wage based on wage data (stored in the auxiliary storage device) specified for each item such as replacement and removal of each part. it can.

  Although not shown, not only the cost for replacement and correction can be calculated, but also work instructions can be given to workers who perform these work.

  Further, when designating the damaged part (step 107), the vehicle is divided into a plurality of blocks and the part name data, part illustration data, etc. are displayed on the same screen for each part included in each block. Can also be associated with When created in this way, the screen on which the part illustrations and the like are displayed can be switched for each block, and can operate as if the maintenance manual is operated.

  As described above, according to the automobile repair estimation system of the present embodiment, since the corresponding work list is displayed from the part illustration and the estimation work is advanced, it is possible to select an accurate repair work and shorten the estimated time. And it is possible to prevent omission of selection of parts.

  Furthermore, since the part illustrations displayed on the screen when selecting parts are created in vector format, they can be displayed clearly even when they are enlarged or reduced. Because different parts or related parts can be displayed on the screen in different colors, the estimation operator can instantly and clearly grasp the parts to be selected or the interrelationships between the necessary parts in each work. I can do things. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the creation of overestimation and underestimation.
