Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To set a repair work priority of an object to be repaired, which has been removed from a manufacturing line to be repaired for correction, in consideration of the degree of influence of the delay time.SOLUTION: Repair work priorities of vehicles to be repaired, which are waiting for repair, are set (S7) in the descending order of delay estimated times F(k) at the time of return to the line of stock vehicles, which are differences between line return estimated time E(k) and initial production progress planning times D(k). In this case, line return estimated times E(k) of vehicles to be repaired, which are waiting for repair, at the time of setting or updating repair work priorities of the vehicles to be repaired are properly recognized in accordance with repair start estimated times (i) and repair work lead times (ii) of respective vehicles to be repaired. Work priorities are set (S702 to S712) regardless of the order of removal times of vehicles so as to raise the work priority of a vehicle to be repaired, by which the occurrence of a long delay time is estimated.

Description

本発明は、作業優先順序設定方法及び作業優先順序設定装置に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a work priority order setting method and a work priority order setting device.

例えば、車両生産工場の製造ラインの品質確認行程において不具合が発生された場合には、その不具合の度合いに応じ、製造品を製造ラインから降ろし、手直し補修をする運用がなされている。本説明では、この補修作業を行うために、製造ラインから製造品を降ろすことを「下車」といい、補修を行うライン外工程を、本説明では「下車工程」という。そして、下車工程は、部品製造ライン、サブアッセンブリーライン、車両の最終組立てラインの、何れの段階の製造ラインにおいても、実施されるものである(例えば、特許文献1参照)   For example, when a defect occurs in the quality confirmation process of the production line of the vehicle production factory, the operation is performed to remove the manufactured product from the production line and repair it according to the degree of the defect. In this description, in order to perform this repair work, unloading the manufactured product from the production line is referred to as “getting off”, and the off-line process for repairing is referred to as “getting off process” in this description. The dismounting process is carried out in any stage of the production line of the parts production line, sub-assembly line, and final assembly line of the vehicle (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

特開2003−256023号公報Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2003-256023

ところで、下車工程で実施される補修作業リードタイム(所要時間)は、車両の生産着工当初に想定されるものではない。このため、補修作業リードタイムは、生産着工当初に算出された車両完成予定日時に対する、現実的には不可避の「遅れ時間」として取り扱われる。しかしながら、遅れ時間の発生は、製造ラインの後工程のみならず、製品出荷後の様々な作業にも影響を及ぼし、完成品の納期の遅延にもつながるものである。しかも、補修作業は多義に渡ることから、補修作業リードタイムも様々であり、大幅な遅れ時間が生じてしまうケースも存在する。
本発明は、上記課題に鑑みてなされたものであり、その目的とするところは、手直し補修のために製造ラインから降ろされた補修対象品の、遅れ時間の影響の度合いを考慮して、補修作業の優先順序を設定することにより、大幅な遅れ時間の発生を回避することにある。
By the way, the repair work lead time (required time) performed in the getting-off process is not assumed at the beginning of the vehicle production start. For this reason, the repair work lead time is treated as an inevitable “delay time” with respect to the scheduled vehicle completion date and time calculated at the start of production. However, the occurrence of the delay time affects not only the post-process of the production line but also various operations after the product shipment, leading to a delay in the delivery date of the finished product. In addition, since the repair work is ambiguous, the lead time of the repair work varies, and there are cases where a significant delay time occurs.
The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and its purpose is to repair in consideration of the degree of influence of the delay time of the repair target product dropped from the production line for repair repair By setting the priority order of work, it is to avoid occurrence of a significant delay time.

以下、本発明を実施するための最良の形態を添付図に基づいて説明する。
図1には、本発明の実施の形態に係る作業優先順序設定装置10が、生産ラインと共に概略図示されている。図示の例では、製造品12(図示の例では、自動車のボデー)を流すメインライン14の、品質確認行程において不具合が発生された場合に、手直し補修をする下車工程16が、複数ライン設けられている。そして、作業優先順序設定装置10は、補修対象品に対する補修作業優先順序の設定又は更新時、例えば、下車工程16に新たな補修対象車両127が下車した時点で、下車工程16における、各補修対象車両の作業優先順序を設定するものである。なお、図1中の符号P1は、メインライン14から下車工程16への下車地点を示し、符号P2は、下車工程16からメインライン14へのライン復帰地点を示している。
The best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 1 schematically shows a work priority order setting device 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention together with a production line. In the example shown in the figure, a plurality of lines are provided for a dismounting process 16 for repairing when a problem occurs in the quality confirmation process of the main line 14 through which the product 12 (in the example shown, an automobile body) flows. ing. Then, the work priority order setting device 10 sets the repair work priority order for the product to be repaired, for example, when a new repair target vehicle 127 gets off in the dismount process 16, each repair target in the dismount process 16. The priority order of work of the vehicle is set. In addition, the code | symbol P1 in FIG. 1 has shown the disembarkation point from the main line 14 to the disembarkation process 16, and the code | symbol P2 has shown the line return point from the disembarkation process 16 to the main line 14. FIG.

図1の作業優先順序設定装置10は、全体としては、コンピュータ等の電子演算器と、作業担当者との各種インターフェースとで構成された、車両生産指示/進捗管理システムである。そして、補修対象品の不具合情報管理手段(不具合情報システム)22と、下車管理システム24に設けられた作業優先順序設定手段26とを備えている。不具合情報管理手段22は、図示のごとく、各種不具合情報を管理する記憶テーブルを有しており、作業優先順序作成に際して、作業優先順序設定手段26に対し、必要な不具合情報を提供するものである。不具合情報システム22と、下車管理システム24とに含まれる、各記憶テーブルや判断主体は、電子演算器の制御ロジックとして構築することが可能である。   The work priority order setting device 10 shown in FIG. 1 is a vehicle production instruction / progress management system composed of an electronic computing unit such as a computer and various interfaces with a person in charge of the work as a whole. Then, it includes defect information management means (defect information system) 22 for the repair target product and work priority order setting means 26 provided in the getting-off management system 24. As shown in the figure, the defect information management means 22 has a storage table for managing various kinds of defect information, and provides necessary defect information to the work priority order setting means 26 when creating the work priority order. . Each storage table and judgment subject included in the defect information system 22 and the getting-off management system 24 can be constructed as control logic of an electronic computing unit.

又、作業優先順序設定手段26は、補修待ちの補修対象品125、126、127の各ライン復帰見込み時刻(後述する)を、補修着手見込み時刻(後述する)と各補修対象品の補修作業リードタイム(後述する)とから求める。そして、ライン復帰見込み時刻と、当初の生産進捗計画時刻との差が大きい順に、各補修待ちの補修対象品125、126、127に対する、補修作業優先順序を設定するものである。更に、補修作業優先順序設定手段26には、各補修対象品の生産完了優先情報(後述する)を管理する、生産完了優先情報管理手段28を含んでいる。そして、補修作業優先順序設定手段26において、各補修待ちの補修対象品125、126、127に対する補修作業優先順序を設定する際に、生産完了優先情報管理手段(「優先条件」テーブル)28に管理された、生産完了優先情報を考慮して、補修作業優先順序の入れ替えを行う。
作業優先順序設定手段26で設定された補修作業優先順序は、下車管理システム24に含まれる、下車在庫車両―個別ステータス情報管理手段(テーブル)30にて、記憶、管理される。そして、パネルコンピュータやPDA端末等の各種インターフェース32を介して、下車工程16に携わる作業者へと告知されるものである。図1中の用語「補修LT」は補修作業リードタイムを略したものである。又、図1におけるインターフェースを介した各入力、更新作業の主体は、検査担当者、補修担当者である。なお、図1の作業優先順序設定装置10の構成は一例であり、同様の機能を有する他の構成を採用することも可能である。
Further, the work priority order setting means 26 sets the expected return time (described later) of the repair target products 125, 126, 127 waiting for repair, the expected repair start time (described later), and the repair work lead of each repair target product. It is obtained from time (described later). Then, the order of priority for repair work is set for the repair target products 125, 126, and 127 waiting for repair in descending order of the difference between the estimated line return time and the initial production progress plan time. Further, the repair work priority order setting means 26 includes production completion priority information management means 28 for managing production completion priority information (described later) of each repair target product. When the repair work priority order setting unit 26 sets the repair work priority order for the repair target products 125, 126, and 127 that are waiting for repair, they are managed in the production completion priority information management unit (“priority condition” table) 28. The repair work priority order is changed in consideration of the production completion priority information.
The repair work priority order set by the work priority order setting means 26 is stored and managed by the getting-off stock vehicle-individual status information management means (table) 30 included in the getting-off management system 24. And it is notified to the worker engaged in the getting-off process 16 through various interfaces 32 such as a panel computer and a PDA terminal. The term “repair LT” in FIG. 1 is an abbreviation for repair work lead time. Also, the subject of each input and update operation via the interface in FIG. 1 is an inspector and a repairer. Note that the configuration of the work priority order setting device 10 in FIG. 1 is merely an example, and other configurations having the same function may be employed.

図2には、作業優先順序設定手段26において、実際に作業優先順序を設定する手順が示されている。以下に、図1、図3〜図8を適宜参照しながら、その手順について詳しく説明する。全体の流れは、以下の通りである。

FIG. 2 shows a procedure for actually setting the work priority order in the work priority order setting means 26. The procedure will be described in detail below with reference to FIGS. 1 and 3 to 8 as appropriate. The overall flow is as follows.
S1: As illustrated in FIG. 1, when a new repair target vehicle 127 gets off at the getting-off process 16, that is, when a new stock vehicle 127 is generated at the getting-off process 16, the setting or updating work of the repair work priority order is performed. Be started.
S3: In the disembarking step 16, the completion of work (repair results, line return results) of the repair target vehicle that has undergone repair is input by the person in charge of the repair target vehicle via a panel computer, a PDA terminal, or the like. .
S5: The defect information management means 22 determines whether the repair contents corresponding to the defect contents of the new stock vehicle 127 are light repairs or heavy repairs. Information is provided to the work priority order setting means 26 together with necessary defect information.
S7: The work priority order setting means 26 considers whether the repair contents corresponding to the trouble contents of the new stock vehicle 127 are light repairs or heavy repairs, and the repair target products 125, 126 waiting for repair, For 127, the work priority order is set in the order of “estimated delay time”. In the present embodiment, the estimated delay time is obtained from the “expected repair start time” and the “repair work lead time” of each repair target product as will be described later.
S9: Further, the work priority order set means 26 corrects the work priority order set in step S7 in consideration of the constraint condition appropriately stored in the production completion priority information management means 28, for example, the production completion priority information. Then, the work priority order is changed as appropriate.
S11: The work priority order information is displayed on the interface 32.

ここで、上記S7の作業優先順序を設定するステップにおいて、補修待ちの補修対象品の各ライン復帰見込み時刻を、補修着手見込み時刻と各補修対象品の補修作業リードタイムとから求める理由を、図3を参照しながら説明する。
すなわち、数1式で示されるように、任意の下車工程において、在庫車両kの車両完成時点での遅れ見込時間C(k)は、在庫車両kの当初計画の車両完成予定時刻A(k)から、在庫車両kの成り行き(補修後)の車両完成見込時刻B(k)を差し引くことで、得られる。
又、在庫車両kの当初計画の車両完成予定時刻A(k)は、数2式に示されるように、車両生産着工実績時刻と、車両着工地点から車両完成までの生産リードタイムとの和から、得られるものである。
更に、数3式に示されるように、車両着工地点から車両完成までの生産リードタイムは、車両着工地点から車両完成までの各工程の在庫数と、各工程のタクトタイムとの積算値に、対象となる車両が通過中の期間の、各工程のライン非稼動時間の積算値を加えたものである。
Here, in the step of setting the work priority order in S7, the reason why the expected return time of each line of the repair target product waiting for repair is obtained from the expected repair start time and the repair work lead time of each repair target product is shown in FIG. This will be described with reference to FIG.
That is, as shown in Equation 1, in an arbitrary getting-off process, the estimated delay time C (k) at the time of completion of the stock vehicle k is the estimated vehicle completion time A (k) of the initial plan of the stock vehicle k. Is obtained by subtracting the expected vehicle completion time B (k) of the inventory vehicle k (after repair).
The planned vehicle completion time A (k) of the initial plan for the stock vehicle k is calculated from the sum of the vehicle production start time and the production lead time from the vehicle start point to the vehicle completion, as shown in Formula 2. , What you get.
Furthermore, as shown in Equation 3, the production lead time from the vehicle start point to the vehicle completion is the integrated value of the number of stocks of each process from the vehicle start point to the vehicle completion and the tact time of each process, The integrated value of the line non-operation time of each process during the period during which the target vehicle is passing is added.

又、数4式に示されるように、車両完成見込時刻B(k)は、補修作業着手見込時刻(i)と、補修作業リードタイム(ii)と、ライン復帰地点P2(図1参照)から車両完成までの生産リードタイム(iii)との和である。
又、数5式に示されるように、ライン復帰見込時刻E(k)は、車両完成見込時刻B(k)を、ライン復帰地点P2から車両完成までの生産リードタイム(iii)で減じた値であり、なおかつ、補修着手見込時刻(i)と補修作業リードタイム(ii)との和の値でもある。
更に、数6式に示されるように、下車地点P1(図1参照)直近の生産進捗管理ポイントP1(図4参照)の生産進捗予定時刻D(k)は、当初計画の車両完成予定時刻A(k)を、ライン復帰地点P2から車両完成までの生産リードタイム(iii)で減じた値である。
Further, as shown in Equation 4, the vehicle completion expected time B (k) is calculated from the repair work start time (i), the repair work lead time (ii), and the line return point P2 (see FIG. 1). This is the sum of production lead time (iii) until vehicle completion.
Further, as shown in Formula 5, the line return expected time E (k) is a value obtained by reducing the vehicle completion expected time B (k) by the production lead time (iii) from the line return point P2 to the vehicle completion. In addition, this is also the sum of the repair start expected time (i) and the repair work lead time (ii).
Furthermore, as shown in Equation 6, the scheduled production progress time D (k) at the production progress management point P C 1 (see FIG. 4) nearest to the disembarking point P1 (see FIG. 1) is the planned vehicle completion schedule. This is a value obtained by subtracting the time A (k) by the production lead time (iii) from the line return point P2 to the completion of the vehicle.

ここで、数7式に示されるように、在庫車両kのライン復帰時の遅れ見込時間F(k)は、下車地点P1直近の生産進捗管理ポイントP1の生産進捗予定時刻D(k)、すなわち、当初の生産進捗計画時刻と、車両kのライン復帰見込時刻E(k)との差から得られる。一方、D(k)、E(k)の値の何れも、ライン復帰地点P2から車両完成までの生産リードタイム(iii)を減じていることから、D(k)―E(k)=A(k)―B(k)となり、数8式のごとく、F(k)=C(k)が成り立つこととなる。
さて、在庫車両kの車両完成時点での遅れ見込時間C(k)は、ライン復帰時点と車両完成時点で変わらないことから、各補修対象車両に対する補修作業優先順序を設定する際に、在庫車両kの車両完成時点での遅れ見込時間C(k)の順に並べることと、在庫車両kのライン復帰時の遅れ見込時間F(k)の順に並べることとは同意となる。
従って、本実施の形態では、ライン復帰時の遅れ見込時間F(k)、すなわち、下車地点P1直近の生産進捗管理ポイントの、当初の生産進捗計画時刻D(k)と、車両kのライン復帰見込時刻E(k)との差が大きい順に、各補修対象車両125〜127に対する補修作業優先順序を設定することとしたものである。
Here, as shown in Equation 7, the estimated delay time F (k) when the stock vehicle k returns to the line is the estimated production progress time D (k) of the production progress management point P C 1 nearest to the getting-off point P1. That is, it is obtained from the difference between the initial production progress plan time and the line return expected time E (k) of the vehicle k. On the other hand, since both the values of D (k) and E (k) reduce the production lead time (iii) from the line return point P2 to the vehicle completion, D (k) −E (k) = A (K) −B (k), and F (k) = C (k) is established as shown in Equation (8).
Since the estimated delay time C (k) at the time of completion of the stock vehicle k does not change between when the line is returned and when the vehicle is completed, when setting the priority order of repair work for each repair target vehicle, the stock vehicle Arranging in the order of the expected delay time C (k) at the time of completion of the vehicle of k is in agreement with arranging in the order of the expected delay time F (k) when the stock vehicle k returns to the line.
Therefore, in the present embodiment, the expected delay time F (k) at the time of line return, that is, the initial production progress plan time D (k) of the production progress management point closest to the getting-off point P1, and the line return of the vehicle k. The order of priority of repair work for each of the repair target vehicles 125 to 127 is set in descending order of the difference from the expected time E (k).

続いて、図2のステップS7の作業優先順序を設定する手順に係る、各ステップS702〜S712について、更に詳細に説明する。
説明の便宜上、図4に具体的な条件設定を示す。下車工程16には、4台の、補修作業中の補修対象車両121、122、123、124が有り、夫々の作業の担当者のうち、担当者A、B、Cの職能は、重作業、軽作業の何れも可能である。一方、担当者Dの職能は、軽作業のみ可能である。そして、下車工程16には、2台の補修待ちの補修対象車両125、126が在庫車両として存在し、更に、下車工程16に新たな補修対象品127が下車し、在庫車両に加わった状態を示している。
Next, steps S702 to S712 related to the procedure for setting the work priority order in step S7 of FIG. 2 will be described in more detail.
For convenience of explanation, FIG. 4 shows specific condition settings. There are four vehicles 121, 122, 123, 124 to be repaired during the dismounting process 16 in the disembarking process 16, and among the persons in charge of each work, the functions of the persons in charge A, B, C are heavy work, Any light work is possible. On the other hand, the person in charge D can perform only light work. In the disembarking process 16, there are two repair target vehicles 125 and 126 waiting for repair as stock vehicles. Further, in the disembarking process 16, a new repair target product 127 has been disembarked and added to the stock vehicle. Show.

ここで、図6〜図8に示される、具体的な作業順序の設定手順における、各補修対象車両121〜127の補修作業リードタイムの内訳を、図5に模式的に示す。補修作業リードタイムのマスタ情報は、図1の不具合情報システム22の、「下車車両情報」テーブルから、作業優先順序設定手段26の「補修LT」テーブルに、情報提供されるものである。図5の例は塗装ラインに関するものであり、補修作業リードタイムのマスタ情報として、不具合内容「ブツ大」、下車区分(下車理由)「手直し補修」、補修内容「淡色吹付(大)」、補修作業リードタイム90min(内訳:作業時間WoT=30min、手待ち時間WeT=60min)、及び、模式的に棒グラフで表されたリードタイムモデル(実作業時間と手待ち時間との配列パターン)が含まれている。更に、リードタイムモデルには、下車地点P1直近の生産進捗管理ポイントP1(図4参照)の、当初の生産進捗計画時刻D(k)を丸印で、ライン復帰地点P2直後の進捗管理ポイントP2(図4参照)における、当初の遵守限界時刻をバツ印で示している。
なお、補修作業リードタイムのうち、作業時間WoTについては、作業者の技量に応じて、適宜修正申告し、インターフェースを介して更新することが出来る(図1の「補修LT更新」参照。)
Here, the breakdown of the repair work lead time of each of the repair target vehicles 121 to 127 in the specific work order setting procedure shown in FIGS. 6 to 8 is schematically shown in FIG. The master information of the repair work lead time is provided from the “get off vehicle information” table of the defect information system 22 of FIG. 1 to the “repair LT” table of the work priority order setting means 26. The example in Fig. 5 is related to the painting line. As master information of repair work lead time, the failure content is "Large size", the getting off category (reason for getting off) "Repair repair", the repair content "Light color spraying (Large)", repair Work lead time 90min (breakdown: work time WoT = 30min, hand waiting time WeT = 60min) and lead time model (array pattern of actual work time and hand waiting time) schematically represented by a bar graph are included. ing. Furthermore, in the lead time model, the initial production progress plan time D (k) of the production progress management point P C 1 (see FIG. 4) closest to the getting-off point P1 is circled, and the progress management immediately after the line return point P2 at the point P C 2 (see Fig. 4) shows the initial compliance limit time in crosses.
Of the repair work lead time, the work time WoT can be appropriately revised and updated via the interface according to the skill of the worker (see “Repair LT Update” in FIG. 1).

以下、図2の各ステップS702〜S712を、順を追って説明する。
S702:既に補修に着手している車両の作業完了時刻のうち、一番早い時刻(i)のものを選択する。下車工程16に新たな補修対象品127が下車した時刻が、図4に示されるように6:00であったとして、この時点で、図6の例では、補修作業中の補修対象車両121、122、123、124のうち、補修対象車両122の作業完了時刻が7:00で最先である。よって、7:00を一番早い時刻(i)とする。
S704:ステップS702で選択された一番早い時刻(i)に係る車両122の担当者Bが、3台の補修待ちの補修対象車両125〜127のいずれかの車両のうち、次に作業着手する車両の担当者として、決定される。
S706:時刻(i)を、3台の補修待ちの補修対象車両125〜127のいずれかの車両のうち、次に作業着手する車両の、作業着手見込時刻(図3の数4式、数5式参照)とする。
Hereafter, each step S702-S712 of FIG. 2 is demonstrated later on.
S702: Select the earliest time (i) among the work completion times of the vehicles that have already begun repairs. Assuming that the time when the new repair target product 127 got off at the disembarking process 16 was 6:00 as shown in FIG. 4, at this point, in the example of FIG. 6, in the example of FIG. Among 122, 123, and 124, the work completion time of the repair target vehicle 122 is the earliest at 7:00. Therefore, 7:00 is the earliest time (i).
S704: The person in charge B of the vehicle 122 related to the earliest time (i) selected in step S702 starts work next among any of the three repair target vehicles 125 to 127 waiting for repair. Determined as the person in charge of the vehicle.
S706: Time (i) is the expected work start time of the vehicle to be started next among any of the three repair target vehicles 125 to 127 that are waiting to be repaired (Formula 4 and Formula 5 in FIG. 3). (See formula).

S708:時刻(i)に作業待ちになっている補修対象車両125〜127に、着手保留とされた車両が存在する場合には、その車両を作業優先順序の決定から除外する。又、担当者Bができない補修作業を必要とする場合にも、その車両を除外する。図示の例では、担当者Bの職能は、重作業、軽作業の何れも可能であることから、この点で車両の除外は生じない。そして、時刻(i)に、図6に示される、補修対象車両125〜127の補修作業リードタイムを加算し、各車両のライン復帰見込時刻E(k)を算出する。なお、図6の補修対象車両125〜127の各補修作業リードタイムは、仮に、下車工程16に在庫車両が存在せず、下車後直ちに補修が可能であった場合を例示している。
S710:図7に示されるように、作業待ちになっている補修対象車両125〜127の、下車直近の生産進捗管理ポイントPc1(図4参照)における、生産進捗予定時刻D(k)と、補修対象車両125〜127のライン復帰見込時刻E(k)との差である、ライン復帰時の遅れ見込時間F(k)を算出する。そして、その差が大きい順に、作業優先順序を設定する。図7の例では、車両125のF(k)=+1(時間h)、車両126のF(k)=±0(時間h)、車両127のF(k)=+2(時間h)である。従って、作業優先順序は、車両127が第1位、車両125が第2位、車両126が第3位となる。
S712:ステップS710で優先順序が第1位とされた車両127が、担当者Bが次に補修作業に着手する車両として、仮決定される。
S708: When there is a vehicle that has been put on hold among the repair target vehicles 125 to 127 that are waiting for work at time (i), the vehicle is excluded from the determination of the work priority order. Also, if the person in charge B needs repair work, the vehicle is excluded. In the example shown in the figure, the person B can perform either heavy work or light work, so no vehicle is excluded in this respect. Then, the repair work lead time of the repair target vehicles 125 to 127 shown in FIG. 6 is added to the time (i), and the line return expected time E (k) of each vehicle is calculated. The repair work lead times of the repair target vehicles 125 to 127 in FIG. 6 exemplify a case where there is no stock vehicle in the getting-off process 16 and repair is possible immediately after getting off.
S710: As shown in FIG. 7, the planned production progress time D (k) at the production progress management point Pc1 (see FIG. 4) immediately after getting off the repair target vehicles 125 to 127 waiting for work and the repair A delay expected time F (k) at the time of line return, which is a difference from the line return expected time E (k) of the target vehicles 125 to 127, is calculated. Then, the work priority order is set in descending order. In the example of FIG. 7, F (k) = + 1 (time h) of the vehicle 125, F (k) = ± 0 (time h) of the vehicle 126, and F (k) = + 2 (time h) of the vehicle 127. . Therefore, the work priority order is the vehicle 127 first, the vehicle 125 second, and the vehicle 126 third.
S712: The vehicle 127 in which the priority order is ranked first in step S710 is provisionally determined as the vehicle in which the person in charge B starts the repair work next.

続いて、図2のステップS9において、制約条件を考慮して補修作業優先順序を補正する具体的ステップS902、S904について、図8を参照しながら詳しく説明する。
S902:作業優先順序設定手段26では、「優先条件」テーブルに、補修待ちとなっている補修対象車両125〜127のいずれかについて、生産完了優先情報(契約済み車両、特定仕向け地車両等の制約条件)が記憶されているか否かを把握する。そして、生産完了優先情報が記憶された車両(例えば車両125)の補修完了見込時刻E(k)が、次の進捗管理ポイントPc2(図4参照)の、当初の遵守限界時刻を超過している場合には、その車両の作業優先順序を、自車両(例えば車両125)よりも優先順序の高い車両を追い越さない範囲で、繰り上げる。
S904:ステップS902で、生産完了優先情報が考慮された後の、車両の作業優先順序を、正式な作業優先順序として確定する。
Next, specific steps S902 and S904 for correcting the repair work priority order in consideration of the constraint conditions in step S9 in FIG. 2 will be described in detail with reference to FIG.
S902: In the work priority order setting means 26, in the “priority condition” table, for any of the repair target vehicles 125 to 127 that are waiting for repair, the production completion priority information (constrained vehicle, specific destination vehicle, etc.) Whether or not (condition) is stored. The repair completion expected time E (k) of the vehicle (for example, the vehicle 125) in which the production completion priority information is stored exceeds the initial compliance limit time of the next progress management point Pc2 (see FIG. 4). In this case, the work priority order of the vehicle is advanced within a range not overtaking a vehicle having a higher priority order than the own vehicle (for example, the vehicle 125).
S904: In step S902, the work priority order of the vehicle after the production completion priority information is taken into account is determined as the formal work priority order.

図8には、ステップS902で実施される、優先順序の補正作業を、より具体的に示している。
S902−1:検討対象となる車両が、ステップS712において仮決定された順序のうち、優先順序が最も低い車両(例えば、図7の車両126)である場合には(Yes)、ステップS904へと移行する。
S902−2:ステップS902−1において、検討対象となる車両が、優先順序の最後の車両でない場合(例えば、図7の車両125)には(No)、この時点での(仮の)優先順序を、下車管理システム24の、下車在庫車両―個別ステータス情報管理手段30に記録する。
S902−3:S902−2にて記録された優先順序において、検討対象となる車両(例えば車両125)の、ライン復帰見込時刻E(k)が、制約条件により定められる遵守限界時間を超過しているか否かを検討する。ここで、遵守限界時間を超過していない場合には(No)、ステップS902−8へと移行する。一方、検討対象となる車両(例えば車両125)の、ライン復帰見込時刻E(k)が、制約条件により定められる遵守限界時間を超過している場合には(Yes)、S902−4へと移行する。
FIG. 8 shows the priority order correction work performed in step S902 more specifically.
S902-1: If the vehicle to be examined is the vehicle with the lowest priority order (for example, the vehicle 126 in FIG. 7) among the orders temporarily determined in step S712 (Yes), the process proceeds to step S904. Transition.
S902-2: In step S902-1, when the vehicle to be examined is not the last vehicle in the priority order (for example, the vehicle 125 in FIG. 7) (No), (temporary) priority order at this time Is recorded in the getting-off stock vehicle-individual status information management means 30 of the getting-off management system 24.
S902-3: In the priority order recorded in S902-2, the line return expected time E (k) of the vehicle to be examined (for example, the vehicle 125) exceeds the compliance limit time determined by the constraint condition. Consider whether or not. If the compliance limit time has not been exceeded (No), the process proceeds to step S902-8. On the other hand, when the line return expected time E (k) of the vehicle to be examined (for example, the vehicle 125) exceeds the compliance limit time determined by the constraint condition (Yes), the process proceeds to S902-4. To do.

S902−4:検討対象となる車両(例えば車両125)よりも、仮決定された優先順序が1つ上の車両(例えば車両127)に、制約条件により定めらた優先項目があるか否かを検討する。ここで、優先項目が無い場合には(No)、ステップS902−6へと移行する。一方、優先項目がある場合には(Yes)、ステップS902−5へと移行する。
S902−5:検討対象となる車両(例えば車両125)よりも、仮決定された優先順序が1つ上の車両(例えば車両127)の、優先項目の優先度の方が高いか否かを検討する。ここで、優先度が高い場合には(Yes)、ステップS902−7へと移行する。一方、優先度が高くない場合には、ステップS902−6へと移行する。
S902−6:検討対象となる車両(例えば車両125)と、仮決定された優先順序が1つ上の車両(例えば車両127)との、優先順序を入れ替える。
図7の例に当てはめれば、車両125が優先順序第2位から第1位へと繰り上げられ、車両127が優先順序第1位から第2位へと繰り下げられる。そして、ステップS902−3へと復帰する。
S902−7:優先順序を入れ替えた結果、検討対象となる車両(例えば車両125)に対して、優先順序が1つ低い車両(例えば車両127)が、制約条件により定められる遵守限界時間を超過しているか否かを検討する。ここで、優先順序が1つ低い車両が、制約条件により定められる遵守限界時間を超過している場合には(Yes)、ステップS902−8へと移行する。一方、優先順序が1つ低い車両(例えば車両127)が、制約条件により定められる遵守限界時間を超過していない場合には(No)、ステップS902−6へと移行する(優先順序を入れ替えた状態を維持する)。
S902−8:ステップS902−7において、優先順序が1つ低い車両(例えば車両127)が、制約条件により定められる遵守限界時間を超過している場合には、優先順序の入れ替えを行うことなく、ステップS902−9へと移行する。
S902−9:検討対象となる車両(例えば車両126)の作業優先順序が確定し、ステップS902−1へと復帰して、別の車両について、同様の検討が行われる。
S902-4: Whether or not there is a priority item defined by the constraint condition in the vehicle (for example, the vehicle 127) whose priority order temporarily determined is higher than that of the vehicle to be examined (for example, the vehicle 125). consider. If there is no priority item (No), the process proceeds to step S902-6. On the other hand, if there is a priority item (Yes), the process proceeds to step S902-5.
S902-5: Examining whether or not the priority of the priority item of the vehicle (for example, the vehicle 127) whose priority order temporarily determined is one higher than that of the vehicle to be studied (for example, the vehicle 125) is higher. To do. If the priority is high (Yes), the process proceeds to step S902-7. On the other hand, if the priority is not high, the process proceeds to step S902-6.
S902-6: The priority order of the vehicle to be studied (for example, the vehicle 125) and the vehicle (for example, the vehicle 127) whose tentatively determined priority order is one higher are switched.
If applied to the example of FIG. 7, the vehicle 125 is moved up from the second priority order to the first position, and the vehicle 127 is moved down from the first priority order to the second position. Then, the process returns to step S902-3.
S902-7: As a result of changing the priority order, the vehicle (for example, the vehicle 127) whose priority order is one lower than the vehicle to be examined (for example, the vehicle 125) exceeds the compliance limit time defined by the constraint condition. Consider whether or not. Here, when the vehicle whose priority order is one lower than the compliance limit time determined by the constraint condition (Yes), the process proceeds to step S902-8. On the other hand, if the vehicle whose priority order is one lower (for example, the vehicle 127) does not exceed the compliance limit time determined by the constraint condition (No), the process proceeds to step S902-6 (the priority order is changed). Maintain state).
S902-8: In step S902-7, when a vehicle with a lower priority order (for example, vehicle 127) exceeds the compliance limit time determined by the constraint condition, the priority order is not changed. The process proceeds to step S902-9.
S902-9: The work priority order of the vehicle to be examined (for example, the vehicle 126) is confirmed, the process returns to step S902-1, and the same examination is performed for another vehicle.

さて、上記構成をなす本発明の実施の形態によれば、次のような作用効果を得ることが可能となる。即ち、本発明の実施の形態は、補修待ちの補修対象車両125〜127が多数存在している場合において、ライン復帰見込み時刻E(k)と、当初の生産進捗計画時刻D(k)との差である、在庫車両のライン復帰時の遅れ見込時間F(k)が大きい順に、各補修対象車両125〜127に対する補修作業優先順序を設定するものである(S7)。しかも、補修着手見込み時刻(i)と各補修対象車両125〜127の補修作業リードタイム(ii)とから、補修対象車両125〜127に対する補修作業優先順序の設定又は更新時(6:00)における、各補修待ちの補修対象車両125〜127のライン復帰見込み時刻E(k)を、適切に把握するものである。そして、単に下車時間の順序にとらわれず、大幅な遅れ時間の発生が見込まれる補修対象車両の作業優先順序を高めるように、作業優先順序を設定するものである(S702〜S712)。   Now, according to the embodiment of the present invention configured as described above, the following operational effects can be obtained. That is, according to the embodiment of the present invention, when there are many repair target vehicles 125 to 127 waiting for repair, the line return expected time E (k) and the initial production progress planned time D (k) The order of priority of repair work for each of the repair target vehicles 125 to 127 is set in the descending order of the estimated delay time F (k) when the stock vehicle returns to the line, which is the difference (S7). Moreover, the repair work priority order for the repair target vehicles 125 to 127 is set or updated (6:00) from the expected repair start time (i) and the repair work lead times (ii) of the repair target vehicles 125 to 127. Thus, the line return expected time E (k) of the repair target vehicles 125 to 127 waiting for repair is appropriately grasped. Then, the work priority order is set so as to increase the work priority order of the vehicle to be repaired, which is not limited to the order of the disembarking time but is expected to generate a significant delay time (S702 to S712).

又、生産完了優先情報、例えば、製品の仕向け地の事情や契約の有無を考慮して、各補修対象車両125〜127に対する補修作業優先順序の入れ替えを行うことで(S9)、より実情に応じた、補修対象車両125〜127の作業優先順序を定めることが可能となる。   In addition, in consideration of the production completion priority information, for example, the situation of the destination of the product and the presence or absence of the contract, the priority order of the repair work for each repair target vehicle 125 to 127 is changed (S9), depending on the actual situation. In addition, it is possible to determine the work priority order of the repair target vehicles 125 to 127.

又、補修待ちの補修対象車両125〜127の各ライン復帰見込み時刻E(k)を求める際に、各補修対象車両125〜127の補修作業リードタイム(ii)の開始時刻の基準となる時間として、複数の作業者A〜Dが既に作業着手している補修対象車両121〜124の作業完了時刻のうち、最も早い作業完了時刻(7:00)を選択する。すなわち、補修対象車両122に対する着手済みの作業が完了した時点で、直に次の作業に取り掛かることを前提として、ライン復帰見込み時刻E(k)を求めるものである。そして、最も早い作業完了時刻(7:00)に係る作業担当者Bに、手待ち時間が生じることなく、効率的に次の補修対象車両125〜127の補修作業へと掛かることが可能な、無駄の無い作業優先順序の設定が可能となる。   In addition, when obtaining the expected line return times E (k) of the repair target vehicles 125 to 127 waiting for repair, the time used as a reference for the start time of the repair work lead time (ii) of the repair target vehicles 125 to 127 Among the work completion times of the repair target vehicles 121 to 124 that have already started work by a plurality of workers A to D, the earliest work completion time (7:00) is selected. That is, the estimated line return time E (k) is obtained on the premise that the next work is started immediately after the work already started on the repair target vehicle 122 is completed. And, it is possible to efficiently start the repair work of the next repair target vehicles 125 to 127 without causing a waiting time for the worker B related to the earliest work completion time (7:00). It is possible to set a work priority order without waste.

更に、最も早い作業完了時刻に係る作業担当者Bが、補修待ちの補修対象車両125〜127の補修作業の如何に関わらず、重作業にも対応可能な高い職能を有する場合には、その作業担当者Bの作業完了時刻(7:00)を、各補修対象車両125〜127の補修作業リードタイム(ii)の開始時刻として選択する(S702〜S708)。一方、最も早い作業完了時刻に係る作業者が、軽作業のみ対応可能な職能しか持たない場合には(例えば、担当者Dであった場合。)、他の高い職能を有する作業者の、最先の作業完了時刻を優先して、各補修対象品の補修作業リードタイム(ii)の開始時刻として選択する。これにより、職能不適格な担当割り当ての発生を、防ぐことが可能となる。   Furthermore, if the worker B related to the earliest work completion time has a high capability capable of handling heavy work regardless of the repair work of the repair target vehicles 125 to 127 waiting for repair, The work completion time (7:00) of the person in charge B is selected as the start time of the repair work lead time (ii) of each of the repair target vehicles 125 to 127 (S702 to S708). On the other hand, when the worker associated with the earliest work completion time has only the ability to handle only light work (for example, the person in charge D), The work completion time is prioritized and selected as the start time of the repair work lead time (ii) of each repair target product. As a result, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of assignments that are ineligible for job functions.

又、最も早い作業完了時刻に係る作業者Bの職能に応じて、補修待ちの補修対象車両125〜127の補修作業に要する、実際の補修作業リードタイム(ii)(補修作業リードタイムのうちの作業時間WoT)を適宜修正することで、実情に応じた補修対象車両125〜127の作業優先順序を定めることが可能となる。又、補修対象車両125〜127の着手保留情報、すなわち、何らかの理由により着手保留とされた補修対象車両については、優先順序の検討対象から外すことで、実情に応じた補修対象品の作業優先順序を定めることができる。 In addition, according to the function of the worker B related to the earliest work completion time, the actual repair work lead time (ii) required for repair work of the repair target vehicles 125 to 127 waiting for repair (of the repair work lead time) By appropriately modifying the work time WoT), the work priority order of the repair target vehicles 125 to 127 according to the actual situation can be determined. In addition, the on-hold information of the repair target vehicles 125 to 127, that is, the repair target vehicle that has been put on hold for some reason, is removed from the priority order examination target, and the work priority order of the repair target products according to the actual situation Can be determined.
