Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To eliminate complicatedness accompanied by an input of a check result. <P>SOLUTION: When a checker puts a tag reader 7 to an IC tag of a fire alarm, the IC tag transmits reflected waves including equipment ID to a tag reader 7. If the tag reader 7 receives the reflected waves, a CPU 11 stores the equipment ID in an RAM 13, displays a state button on a display 16, and determines whether there is any operation. When there is an operation of depression to the state button, the CPU 11 makes the information responding to this operation associated with the equipment ID writes it in a check result table 141. Meanwhile, when this operation does not exist, the CPU 11 determines whether the equipment ID is received from the tag reader 7. When it is determined that new equipment ID is received, the CPU 11 makes the result information indicating "good" associated with the equipment ID and writes it in the check result table 141. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT

(A-4: Configuration of tag reader and tester)
The tag reader 7 is a device that receives a reflected wave including a device ID unique to the IC tag 31 from the IC tag 31 attached to the fire alarm 3 described above, and is configured to be attachable to the tester 2. . FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating a state in which the tag reader 7 is attached to the tester 2. The tester 2 includes a test chamber 21 and a support bar 22. The test chamber 21 is a bottomed cylinder made of a metal plate or a heat resistant resin, and has an opening 211 on the upper side in the drawing. Inside the test chamber 21, a heating device and a blower (not shown) are provided, and a simulated fire state is supplied by driving them.

The connection terminal 17 sends the electrical signal transmitted by the cord 78 to the CPU 11 via the bus 19.

  FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an outline of a state in which the fire alarm 3 is inspected by the tester 2 equipped with the tag reader 7. A fire alarm 3 is installed on the ceiling R. In testing the fire alarm 3, the inspector first places the antenna 71 near the fire alarm 3 so that the fire alarm 3 is surrounded by the ring of the antenna 71 of the tag reader 7. The mounted tester 2 comes close to the IC tag 31 provided in the fire alarm 3 to a predetermined distance. This state is shown in FIG. At this time, as described above, the connecting portion 75 receives a biasing force from the rod 74 in the direction of the arrow D1 (downward direction in the drawing).

At this time, the connecting portion 75 slides along the rod 74 against the biasing force described above. As shown in FIG. 6B, when the fire alarm 3 is housed in the test chamber 21, the inspector operates the test device 2 to generate a simulated fire state in the test chamber 21. Let Accordingly, when the inspector supplies this simulated fire state as a test for the fire alarm 3, if the light emitting part 32 of the fire alarm 3 emits light, the inspector is operating the fire alarm 3 normally. I understand that. On the other hand, if the light emitting unit 32 of the fire alarm 3 does not emit light at this time, the inspector knows that the fire alarm 3 is not operating normally.

(A-5: Configuration of the database server 4)
FIG. 7 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the database server 4. Since the CPU 41, the ROM 42, and the RAM 43 have the same configuration as the CPU 11, the ROM 12, and the RAM 13, the description thereof is omitted.

(B: Operation)
Next, the operation of the management system 9 will be described. In particular, the operation of the work terminal 1 and the database server 4 will be mainly described.
(B-1: Operation of work terminal)
The outline of the inspection work for the inspector to check the fire alarm 3 is as follows. The inspector inputs an inspector number indicating himself / herself to the work terminal 1, assigns the antenna 71 of the tag reader 7 to the fire alarm 3, and houses the fire alarm 3 in the test chamber 21 of the tester 2. Then, the inspector operates the tester 2 to test the fire alarm 3 to confirm the operation state of the fire alarm 3. Then, the inspector inputs the confirmed operating state of the fire alarm 3 to the work terminal 1 and tests another fire alarm 3.
Hereinafter, the operation of the work terminal 1 at this time will be described with a specific operation example.

  FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating an example of the operation screen of the work terminal 1. FIG. 9A and FIG. 9B are flowcharts for explaining the operation flow of the work terminal 1. First, when the inspector operates the operation unit 15 of the work terminal 1 to activate the work terminal 1, the CPU 11 of the work terminal 1 controls the display unit 16 to display the work terminal 1 as shown in FIG. An operation screen is displayed (step SA101). This operation screen is called an inspector number input screen. As shown in the figure, on the inspector number input screen, a character string “input inspector number:”, a text box 161 and a confirmation button 162 are displayed below the character string. When the inspector operates the cross key 15b, the CPU 11 causes the display unit 16 to display a graphic indicating that the text box 161 or the confirmation button 162 is selected according to the operation. For example, when the text box 161 is selected, as shown in the figure, a graphic (cursor or the like) indicating the position where the text is input is displayed in the rectangle of the text box 161. At this time, a numeric keypad displaying numbers 0 to 9 is displayed between the text box 161 and the confirmation button 162. When the inspector operates the cross key 15b and the button 15a and inputs the inspector number while looking at the numeric keypad, the CPU 11 displays the input inspector number in the text box 161.

Next, the CPU 11 determines whether or not an inspector number that is a number indicating the inspector has been input (step SA102). And when there is no input of an inspector number (step SA102; NO), it waits for the said input. When the inspector operates the cross key 15 b after displaying the inspector number in the text box 161 on the inspector number input screen, the CPU 11 displays an image indicating that the confirmation button 162 is selected on the display unit 16. Display. When the inspector presses the predetermined button 15a, the CPU 11 determines that the inspector number has been input. When the inspector number is input in this way (step SA102; YES), the CPU 11 stores the input inspector number in the RAM 13 (step SA103).
Next, the CPU 11 determines whether or not the device ID of the IC tag 31 has been received from the tag reader 7 (step SA104). If no device ID has been received (step SA104; NO), the device ID continues to be received.

  When the inspector applies the antenna 71 of the tag reader 7 so that the fire alarm 3 fits in the ring as shown in FIG. 6B, the IC tag 31 transmits the radio wave transmitted from the antenna 71. As an energy source, a reflected wave including its own device ID is generated and transmitted to the antenna 71. When the antenna 71 receives the reflected wave and an electric signal including the device ID is transmitted to the CPU 11 of the work terminal 1, the CPU 11 determines that the device ID is received (step SA104; YES), and receives the device ID. As shown in FIG. 8B, time data indicating the time is specified by a built-in timer, the received device ID and time data are stored in the RAM 13 (step SA105), and the display unit 16 is controlled. An operation screen is displayed (step SA106). That is, the RAM 13 functions as a storage unit that stores a device ID (identification information) received by the tag reader 7 (receiving device). In step SA105, the device ID stored in the RAM 13 is not yet combined with the result information. This operation screen is called an inspection result input screen. In the inspection result input screen shown in the figure, the inspector number stored in the RAM 13 in step SA103 and the received device ID are displayed, the status button 163 in which the characters “good” are described, and “bad”. A status button 164 in which the characters are described is displayed. These “good” and “bad” correspond to the result information output by pressing each status button in which they are described.

  Subsequently, the CPU 11 determines whether or not there is a pressing operation on the status button (step SA107). If there is a pressing operation on the status button (step SA107; YES), the CPU 11 receives the result information indicated by the pressed status button, and this result information for the device ID in the RAM 13 stored in step SA105. Are stored in the RAM 13 as a pair. Then, the CPU 11 associates the device ID and the result information stored in the RAM 13 with the checker number stored in the RAM 13 in step SA103 and the time data stored in the RAM 13 in step SA105, and checks the storage unit 14. The result is written in the result table 141 (step SA108). That is, when the CPU 11 (result information receiving means) receives the result information when the device ID (identification information) stored in the RAM 13 (storage means) is not yet combined with the result information, the CPU 11 receives the result information. And function information combination means for combining the device ID. For example, when a test is performed and it is confirmed that the fire alarm 3 does not operate normally, the inspector performs an operation of pressing the status button 164 and inputs “bad” as the result information of the fire alarm 3 To do. On the other hand, the CPU 11 of the work terminal 1 writes “defective” in the inspection result table 141 as result information corresponding to the device ID and time data of the fire alarm 3.

  On the other hand, when there is no pressing operation on the status button (step SA107; NO), the CPU 11 determines whether or not an end instruction is given (step SA109). The end instruction is an instruction to end the inspection work, and is performed when the inspector presses a predetermined button 15a of the work terminal 1. If the CPU 11 determines that an end instruction is given (step SA109; YES), the CPU 11 ends the work terminal 1, and if it is determined that no end instruction is given (step SA109; NO), The CPU 11 determines whether or not a new device ID different from the device ID already stored in the RAM 13 of the IC tag 31 has been received from the tag reader 7 (step SA110).

If it is determined that a new device ID has been received (step SA110; YES), the CPU 11 causes the RAM 13 to store a pair of result information indicating “good” as predetermined result information for the device ID in the RAM 13. . Then, the CPU 11 associates the device ID and the result information stored in the RAM 13 with the checker number stored in the RAM 13 in step SA103 and the time data stored in the RAM 13 in step SA105, and checks the storage unit 14. The result table 141 is written (step SA111), and the process returns to step SA105. That is, the CPU 11 determines in advance that the tag reader 7 (receiving device) newly receives a device ID when the device ID (identification information) stored in the RAM 13 (storage means) is not yet combined with the result information. It functions as a result information combination means for combining the obtained result information and its device ID. For example, when a test is performed and it is confirmed that the fire alarm 3 operates normally, the inspector moves the antenna 71 to the next fire alarm 3 without operating the work terminal 1. . In this case, the result information about the fire alarm 3 identified by the device ID received immediately before is not input to the work terminal 1, but the next device ID is input. At this time, the CPU 11 stores “good” which is predetermined result information in the RAM 13 in association with the device ID received immediately before.
On the other hand, when determining that the device ID has not been received (step SA110; NO), the CPU 11 returns the process to step SA107. Thereby, it is determined again whether or not the status button has been pressed. That is, it enters a state waiting for an operation by an inspector.

  From the above operation, when the inspector simply starts the next test of the fire alarm 3 without operating the operation unit 15 of the work terminal 1, the CPU 11 corresponds to the device ID checked immediately before. Since “good” is written as the result information, the inspector can omit the input of the result information when the result information of the fire alarm 3 is good. That is, since the inspector only has to operate the status button 164 indicating “defective” only when the inspection result of the fire alarm 3 is defective, the complexity of the operation can be reduced.

FIG. 10 is a diagram showing an example of the inspection result table 141 in which the inspection data is written in this way. For example, as shown in the figure, the device ID “111, 222, 333” includes an inspection date and time “2007/06/29 10:10:00”, an inspector number “13,234”, and a state “good”. Are stored in association with each other. After the inspection data is written in the inspection result table 141, when the inspector performs a predetermined operation on the work terminal 1, the CPU 11 of the work terminal 1 transmits the inspection data to the totaling terminal 8 through the communication unit 18. To do. The tabulation terminal 8 transmits these inspection data to the database server 4 via the network 5.
Hereinafter, an operation in which the database server 4 receives the inspection data and constructs the inspection result database 441 will be described.

(B-2: Database server operation)
FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating an example of the inspector database 442 and the equipment database 443 provided in the storage unit 44 of the database server 4. FIG. 12 is a diagram illustrating an example of the inspection result database 441 provided in the storage unit 44. As shown in FIG. 11, in the inspector database 442, the inspector number and the name of the inspector are associated and written. In the device database 443, a device ID, a location, an area, and a device number are written in association with each other. When inspection data is sent from the totaling terminal 8 via the network 5, the CPU 41 of the database server 4 stores this in the RAM 43. And CPU41 reads the inspector database 442 from the memory | storage part 44, and substitutes it with the name of the inspector corresponding to the inspector number contained in this inspection data. Further, the CPU 41 reads the device database 443 from the storage unit 44 and replaces the device ID included in the inspection data with a set of location, area, and device number. Then, the replaced inspection data is written in the inspection result database 441 of the storage unit 44. With the above operation, the CPU 41 updates the inspection result database 441 and the inspection data input by the inspector using the work terminal 1 is reflected in the inspection result database 441.

  As described above, since the database server 4 is connected to the network 5, by appropriately setting the WEB server software, the general-purpose browser software can be operated on the general-purpose computer connected to the network 5 to check the status of the inspection work. I can grasp it.

(C: Modification)
(1) In the above-described embodiment, the inspection data received by the work terminal 1 is sent to the database server 4 via the tabulation terminal 8, but may be sent directly from the work terminal 1 to the database server 4. Good. Further, in the above-described embodiment, each inspection data is aggregated and transmitted to the database server 4. However, each inspection data may be transmitted to the database server 4. Thereby, the inspection status by the work terminal 1 is transmitted to the database server 4 in real time. Further, every time the work terminal 1 generates the inspection data, it transmits this to the database server 4, and the database server 4 stores this, so there is no need to store the inspection data in the work terminal 1, and the work terminal 1 The possibility of losing inspection data due to loss is reduced.

  In the above-described embodiment, the CPU 41 of the database server 4 reads the inspector database 442 from the storage unit 44, replaces it with the inspector name corresponding to the inspector number included in the inspection data, and reads the equipment database 443. The device ID included in the inspection data has been replaced with a set of location, area, and device number, but these replacement operations may be performed at the work terminal 1 or the aggregation terminal 8. In this case, the inspector database 442 and the equipment database 443 are provided in the work terminal 1 and the totaling terminal 8, and the inspector number is assigned to the inspector name corresponding to the work terminal 1 and the totaling terminal 8 by the equipment ID. However, the database server 4 only has to receive the data converted into a set of location, area and device number corresponding to this.

(2) In the above-described embodiment, the IC tag 31 is attached to the fire alarm 3, but may be attached to other devices such as a fire extinguisher, a watering device, and a security device. In the device database 443 stored in the storage unit 44 of the database server 4, a set of device ID, location, area, and device number is described in association with each other, but in addition to or in place of these. Thus, other information corresponding to the device ID may be described. For example, information indicating the position of the device indicated by the device ID may be described.

  FIG. 13 is a layout diagram showing the position of each device inspected by the work terminal 1. In the example shown in the figure, the equipment to be inspected by the inspector has four rooms and a corridor connecting these rooms, and each room enters and exits through doors P1, P2, ..., P6. These rooms and corridors are equipped with devices Q1, Q2,. In the device database 443, distance information indicating the distance from other devices and doors is described for each of the devices Q1 to Q7. Then, the CPU 41 may create a route to be inspected by the inspector based on this distance information and send it to the work terminal 1. For example, when it is predetermined that the inspector enters the facility from the door P1 and starts the inspection, the CPU 41 uses “P1” as the route information indicating the route based on the distance information read from the device database 443. → Q4 → P2 → Q1 → P2 → P3... ”May be generated and transmitted to the work terminal 1 via the network 5 and the totaling terminal 8. The route information is preferably generated by various algorithms for solving the shortest path problem.

  Further, instead of describing the distance information in the device database 443, the storage unit 44 stores position information indicating the positions of the doors P1, P2,..., P6 and the positions of the devices Q1, Q2,. It may be. The CPU 41 may generate route information indicating a route from this position information at every inspection. When the inspection data is received from the work terminal 1 in real time, the CPU 41 may display the inspection data visually on a map as shown in FIG. 13 by referring to the position information. . Thereby, the user of the database server 4 can visually grasp the progress of the inspection by the inspector in real time.

  In addition, the CPU 41 of the database server 4 and the CPU 11 of the work terminal 1 monitor the device ID included in the inspection data sequentially transmitted, and based on this, the device ID deviates from the route indicated by the route information described above. May be sent to warn the inspector that he / she is out of the designated route. In addition, the CPU 41 calculates the time that the inspector has moved between the respective device IDs from the set of the device ID and the inspection date / time included in the inspection data that is sequentially transmitted, and the respective devices are determined from the description contents of the device database 443. The distance is read, and the speed at which the inspector moves between the devices during the inspection is calculated as the measurement speed. The storage unit 44 of the database server 4 stores in advance a standard moving speed at which the inspector moves as standard moving speed information. The CPU 41 may determine whether the inspection has been performed faster than the standard movement speed by comparing the calculated measurement speed with the standard movement speed information read from the storage unit 44. . Furthermore, the standard moving speed information is determined in a range indicated by an upper limit and a lower limit, and the CPU 41 warns the inspector via the work terminal 1 or checks the inspection result when the measurement speed is not within this range. The database 441 may describe contents indicating that the reliability of the inspection result is low. Moreover, you may use this result for evaluation for every inspector.

(3) In the above-described embodiment, by visually confirming the light emitted from the light emitting unit 32 of the fire alarm 3, the fire alarm 3 transmits a fire signal to the central monitoring device 6, and the central monitoring The inspector has grasped that the control signal instructing light emission has been received from the device 6, but means for confirming the light emitted from the light emitting unit 32 is not limited to visual confirmation. For example, a light receiving sensor may be provided in the tag reader 7. This light receiving sensor is provided at a position where the light emitted from the light emitting unit 32 hits when the antenna 71 is applied to the fire alarm 3. The light receiving sensor detects the light when the light emitting unit 32 emits light, and transmits a signal indicating that the light has been detected to the work terminal 1. The work terminal 1 may store whether or not light is detected together with the inspection result of the inspector, and may be used for a cross check of the inspection result of the inspector.

  The fire alarm 3 may be provided with a mechanism other than the light emitting unit 32 and indicating the state of the fire alarm 3. For example, the fire alarm 3 includes an ultrasonic generator, an electromagnetic wave generator, and the like, and may generate an ultrasonic wave, an electromagnetic wave, or the like according to a control signal from the central monitoring device 6. In this case, a detection device that detects ultrasonic waves, electromagnetic waves, or the like may be provided instead of the light receiving sensor. In short, the tag reader 7 only needs to be provided with detection means for detecting the state indicated by the device as a device state signal.

(4) In the above-described embodiment, the inspection data is written in the inspection result table 141 of the work terminal 1, but the inspection data may be written in the IC tag 31. In this case, the tag reader 7 may be configured to write information into the IC tag 31 such as a so-called RFID reader / writer. The work terminal 1 reads the inspection date and time written last time from the IC tag 31 as the final inspection date and time through the tag reader 7 and writes the inspection date and time indicating the current date and time to the IC tag 31. Then, the reliability of inspection may be evaluated by comparing the inspection dates and times. Further, when the period from the last inspection date to the current inspection date exceeds or falls below a predetermined threshold, the CPU 11 may display a warning on the display unit 16 of the work terminal 1. In this case, the inspection data written to the IC tag 31 by the work terminal 1 via the tag reader 7 may not be the entire contents of the inspection data, or may be a part thereof.

(5) In the above-described embodiment, the fire alarm 3 is identified by the IC tag 31 and the tag reader 7, but may be identified by using other configurations. For example, the fire alarm 3 may be identified using a bar code and bar code reader, an ultrasonic transmitter and an ultrasonic receiver, or the like.

(6) In the above-described embodiment, when the tester 2 and the IC tag 31 come close to a predetermined distance, the antenna 71 transmits a radio wave to the IC tag 31 and returns a reflected wave returned from the IC tag 31. Although it received, this distance may be set to the distance which the test device 2 can test with respect to the fire alarm 3. FIG. As a result, in order for the antenna 71 of the tag reader 7 to receive the reflected wave, it is necessary to bring the tester 2 close to the fire alarm 3 up to a testable distance. Can be prevented.

(7) In the above-described embodiment, the connection terminal 17 is a wired communication unit configured by a serial interface compliant with the USB standard, but may be a wireless communication unit. In this case, the cord 78 may not be provided, and the antenna 71 of the tag reader 7 may send an electrical signal directly to the connection terminal 17 of the work terminal 1.

(8) In the above-described embodiment, one tag reader 7 is connected to one work terminal 1, but a plurality of tag readers 7 may be connected to one work terminal 1. In this case, each of the plurality of tag readers 7 may be identified by a tag reader ID. The tag reader ID is receiving device identification information stored in an IC tag or the like attached to each of the plurality of tag readers 7. For example, a device received by the antenna 71 by a modulator (not shown) provided in the tag reader 7 It is included in the electrical signal along with the ID. Note that the tag reader ID may be transmitted to the CPU 11 via the cord 78 when the cord 78 of the tag reader 7 is connected to the connection terminal 17. In short, the antenna 71 transmits the received electric signal including the device ID and the tag reader ID for identifying the tag reader 7 to which the antenna 71 is attached to the CPU 11, and the CPU 11 determines between the device ID and the tag reader ID. What is necessary is just to memorize | store a group in RAM13.

  Hereinafter, a case where an inspector carries one work terminal 1 and two tag readers 7A and 7B and inspects the fire alarm 3 will be described. The tag reader 7A is attached to the tester 2A, and the tag reader 7B is attached to the tester 2B. The tester 2A includes a heating device and supplies a simulated fire state due to heat. The test machine 2B includes a smoke generation device that generates smoke, and supplies a simulated fire state caused by smoke.

  When the inspector applies the antenna 71A of the tag reader 7A so that the fire alarm 3 fits in the ring, the antenna 71A receives the reflected wave from the IC tag 31, and includes the tag reader ID and the device ID indicating the tag reader 7A. When the electrical signal is transmitted to the CPU 11 of the work terminal 1, the CPU 11 determines that the tag reader ID and the device ID are received, and specifies time data indicating the time when the device ID is received by the built-in timer. The received set of device ID and tag reader ID and time data are stored in the RAM 13 and the inspection unit 16 is controlled to display the inspection result input screen.

  Subsequently, the CPU 11 determines whether or not there is a pressing operation on the status button. When there is an operation of pressing the status button, the CPU 11 receives the result information indicated by the pressed status button, and sets the result information for the set of device ID and tag reader ID stored in the RAM 13. And stored in the RAM 13. Then, the CPU 11 writes the device ID, tag reader ID, and result information stored in the RAM 13 as a pair in the inspection result table 141 of the storage unit 14 in association with the above-described inspector number and time data.

  On the other hand, if there is no pressing operation on the status button, the CPU 11 determines whether or not an end instruction has been issued. Here, when it is determined that the termination instruction has been issued, the work terminal 1 is terminated, and when it is determined that the termination instruction has not been issued, the CPU 11 stores the device ID and the tag reader ID stored in the RAM 13. It is determined whether or not a pair of a device ID and a tag reader ID, at least one of which is different from the pair, is received. That is, the CPU 11 determines whether or not a new device ID different from the device IDs constituting the set stored in the RAM 13 or a new tag reader ID different from the tag reader IDs constituting the set is received. To do.

  If the CPU 11 determines that a new device ID or a new tag reader ID has been received, the CPU 11 sets the result information indicating “good” as the predetermined result information for the set of the device ID and the tag reader ID in the RAM 13. And stored in the RAM 13. Then, the CPU 11 writes the device ID, tag reader ID, and result information stored in the RAM 13 as a pair in the inspection result table 141 of the storage unit 14 in association with the above-described inspector number and time data.

  For example, after the inspector operates the test device 2A to perform a test for supplying a simulated fire state due to heat and confirms that the fire alarm 3 operates normally, the inspector operates the work terminal 1. If the antenna 71A is moved to the next fire alarm 3 without performing it, the work terminal 1 includes a fire alarm 3 identified by the device ID received immediately before, and a tag reader 7A identified by the tag reader ID. As a result, the next device ID is input together with the tag reader ID indicating the tag reader 7A. At this time, the CPU 11 stores “good”, which is predetermined result information, in the RAM 13 in association with the pair of the device ID and the tag reader ID received immediately before.

  On the other hand, after the above confirmation, when the inspector does not operate the work terminal 1, the inspector does not move the antenna 71 </ b> A to the next fire alarm 3, but instead moves the antenna 71 </ b> A to the fire alarm 3. On the other hand, if the antenna 71B of the tag reader 7B is assigned, no result information is input to the work terminal 1 for the pair of tag reader ID and device ID received immediately before, and the next tag reader ID and device ID are not received. Entered. Also at this time, the CPU 11 stores “good”, which is predetermined result information, in the RAM 13 in association with the pair of the device ID and the tag reader ID received immediately before.

That is, when the combination of the device ID (identification information) and the tag reader ID (reception device identification information) stored in the RAM 13 (storage means) is not yet combined with the result information, the CPU 11 (result information receiving means) When the result information is received, the CPU 11 (result information combination means) stores the result information and the above combination in combination.
On the other hand, when the CPU 11 (result information receiving means) receives a new device ID and tag reader ID from the tag reader 7 (receiving device) in the state described above, the CPU 11 (result information combining means) determines a predetermined result. The information and the combination of the device ID and tag reader ID stored in the RAM 13 are stored in combination.
