  In the timer monitoring target setting process, the control unit 111 causes the display unit 31 to display, for example, a seventh display screen 207 as shown in FIG. 7B for inputting the monitoring target of the timer monitoring process. The lock of the lock mechanism 61 is released to make the front cover 13 openable, and waits for an input to the operation button 82. In this state, the front cover 13 is manually opened.

  In the seventh display screen 207, a subject display 207a of "Michen camera holder Kanshi" indicating that return delay monitoring setting processing is in progress, and a guidance display 207b of "holder holder elastic ring ENTER terminal" for prompting selection input. Display. With the seventh display screen 207 displayed, when one or more of the operation buttons 82 are pressed and the ENTER key 126 is pressed, the control unit 111 selects one of the holding units 41 and 42 as follows: Only those that are turned on by pressing the operation button 82 are set as monitoring targets of the timer monitoring process performed in the timer setting time input in the timer time setting process, and stored in the storage unit 112 to be a timer Ends the monitoring target setting process.

  Here, the operation button 82 is alternately switched on and off each time the pressing operation is performed, and the control unit 111 first turns off all the operation buttons 82 in the timer monitoring target setting process. When the operation button 82 is not pressed and the control unit 111 is in the off state, the control unit 111 does not turn on the display lamp 81 provided integrally therewith, and the operation button 82 in the off state is pressed and turned on. Then, the display lamp 81 provided integrally with this is turned on. The display lamp 81 is turned off, and when the operation button 82 in the on state is pressed to be in the off state, the display lamp 81 is turned off.

  In the timer monitoring target setting process, when the monitoring target of the timer monitoring process is set, the control unit 111 shifts to the timer return delay reason presence / absence setting process. In the timer return delay reason presence / absence setting process, for example, an eighth display screen as shown in FIG. 7C for causing the control unit 111 to select necessity / non-necessity of return delay reason input when there is a return delay. The display unit 31 displays 208 and waits for selection input.

  In the eighth display screen 208, a timer display delay reason presence / absence setting processing subject display 208a of "set folder name", and "1: for selecting to input a return delay reason" The item display 208b of "on" and the item display 208c of "2: off" for making it unnecessary to input the return delay reason are displayed. At the same time, an arrow mark 208d indicating which item is selected and an item number display column 208e for displaying the number of the item whose vertical position matches the arrow mark 208d inside are displayed. The same selection operation to the operation unit 32 as the second display screen 202 is performed on the eighth display screen 208 as well.

  When the selection operation for inputting the return delay reason is required, the control unit 111 sets the timer monitor return delay reason requiring setting requiring return delay reason when return delay occurs in the timer monitoring process, while the return delay reason is When the selection operation requiring no input is input, the control unit 111 is set as the timer monitor return delay reason unnecessary setting that does not require the input of the return delay reason when the return delay occurs in the timer monitoring process.

  Here, in the timer monitor return delay reason necessary setting, only those of the holding units 41 and 42 that are set as the monitor targets of the timer monitor processing in the timer monitor target setting processing are returned when the return delay occurs in the timer monitor processing. On the other hand, in the timer monitor return delay reason unnecessary setting, it is necessary to input the delay reason, and in the holding units 41 and 42, the timer monitor target setting process is set for all timer monitor process monitoring targets. When the return delay occurs in processing, it becomes unnecessary to input the return delay reason.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 7C, the upper and lower positions of the item display 208b of "1: ON" and the arrow display 208d are aligned, and the item number display column 208e displays "[1]" indicating ON. When the ENTER key 126 is pressed in the state, the control unit 111 sets the timer monitor return delay reason requiring the input of the return delay reason when the return delay occurs in the timer monitor process, and the return delay monitor setting process The fifth display screen 205 for confirming the completion of the above is displayed on the display unit 31, and a state of waiting for a confirmation operation input is made.

  On the other hand, the upper and lower positions of the item display 208c of "2: OFF" and the arrow display 208d are aligned, and the ENTER key 126 is displayed with the item number display column 208e displaying "[2]" indicating OFF. When pressed, the control unit 111 sets the timer monitoring return delay reason unnecessary setting that does not require the input of the return delay reason when the return delay occurs in the timer monitoring process, and the fifth display for confirming the completion of the return delay monitoring setting process The screen 205 is displayed on the display unit 31, and a state of waiting for confirmation operation input is established.

  As described above, when the item management device 11 is set to perform the timer monitoring process, the timer monitoring process is performed only on the holding units 41 and 42 that are set as the monitoring targets in the timer monitoring target setting process. Of the holding units 41 and 42 set as monitoring targets in the timer monitoring target setting process, those holding time after the start of the timer monitoring process exceed the timer setting time set in the timer time setting process, We assume return delay as time over. Then, in the timer return delay reason presence / absence setting process, when the selection operation for inputting the return delay reason is required and the timer monitor return delay reason is required setting, when the return delay is reached, the return delay reason is It will be made to input. On the other hand, even if the timer monitoring process is set, if the selection operation of the return delay reason not required is input in the timer return delay reason presence / absence setting process and the timer monitor return delay reason unnecessary setting is set, the return is performed. When the delay is reached, the return delay reason is not input. If the timer monitoring process is not set, the timer monitoring process is not performed.

  In the above, in the timer return delay reason presence / absence setting process, when the selection operation for inputting the return delay reason is required and the timer monitor return delay reason is required setting, the control unit 111 selects one of the holding units 41 and 42. Although all targets set as the monitoring target of the timer monitoring processing in the timer monitoring target setting processing are set as those requiring the input of the return delay reason when the return delay occurs in the timer monitoring processing, they are set as the monitoring target of the timer monitoring processing. Among those described above, those requiring an input of a return delay reason when a return delay occurs in the timer monitoring process may be selected and set.

  That is, in the timer return delay reason presence or absence setting process, when there is a return delay from among the holding units 41 and 42 among those set as the monitoring targets of the timer monitoring process in the timer monitoring target setting process. For example, a ninth display screen 209 as shown in FIG. 8A is displayed on the display unit 31 instead of the eighth display screen 208 for selectively inputting what requires the return delay reason input. Wait for an input to the operation button 82.

  On the ninth display screen 209, a subject display 209a of "Career holder setting" indicating that the timer return delay reason presence / absence setting process is in progress, and a guidance display 209b of "Holder button elastic force" for prompting selection input. And to display. In the state where the ninth display screen 209 is displayed, one or more of the operation buttons 82 of the holding units 41 and 42 which are set as the monitoring targets of the timer monitoring processing in the timer monitoring target setting processing are pressed. When the ENTER key 126 is operated by the operation, the control unit 111 generates a return delay in the timer monitoring process for all the holding units 41 and 42 for which the operation button 82 is pressed and turned on. At the same time, it is set to one requiring an input of a return delay reason and stored in the storage unit 112.

  In the timer return delay reason presence / absence setting process, the control unit 111 first turns off all the operation buttons 82 of the holding units 41 and 42 that are set as the monitoring targets of the timer monitoring process in the timer monitoring target setting process. When the operation button 82 is pressed and turned on from among the operation buttons 82, the display lamp 81 provided integrally therewith is turned on. When the operation button 82 in which the display lamp 81 is turned on and turned on is pressed to be turned off, the display lamp 81 blinks. At this time, of the holding units 41 and 42, the operation button 82 other than the one set as the monitoring target of the timer monitoring processing in the timer monitoring target setting processing maintains the OFF state even when pressed, and the integrated display lamp Keep 81 in the unlit state.

  Next, the control unit 111 causes the display unit 31 to display a tenth display screen 210 as shown in FIG. 8B, for example, for confirming completion of the timer return delay reason presence / absence setting process, and performs confirmation operation. Wait for input.

  On the tenth display screen 210, a subject display 210a of "Career holder setting" indicating that the timer return delay reason presence / absence setting process is being performed and a guidance display 210b of "Setting ヲ コ マ シ マ シ タ ENTER ヲ シ ヲ シ シ" are displayed. With the tenth display screen 210 displayed on the display unit 31, when the ENTER key 126 is pressed, the control unit 111 ends the timer return delay reason presence / absence setting process, and the return delay monitoring setting process similar to the above is performed. The fifth display screen 205 for confirming the completion is displayed on the display unit 31, and a state of waiting for a confirmation operation input is made.

  As described above, in the article management apparatus 11, on / off of the return delay reason input function is selectively set in the timer monitoring setting process of the holding units 41 and 42. In the selection setting of ON and OFF of the return delay reason input function, all the holding units 41 and 42 set as monitoring targets of the timer monitoring process are collectively set, or the timer monitoring of the holding units 41 and 42 is performed. It is possible to select and set one or more from among those set as process monitoring targets.

{Time monitoring setting process}
When the time monitoring setting process is selected and input from the plurality of selection items of the return delay monitoring setting process, the control unit 111 performs the time monitoring setting process. That is, in the state where the third display screen 203 shown in FIG. 6B is displayed on the display unit 31, the upper and lower positions of the item display 203c of "2: digital display" and the arrow display 203d are aligned, and the item number display column 203e When the ENTER key 126 is pressed in a state in which the numbers in the display are "[2]" indicating time monitoring setting processing, the control unit 111 performs time monitoring setting processing.

  In the time monitoring setting process, the control unit 111 first causes the display unit 31 to display, for example, an eleventh display screen 211 as shown in FIG. 9A for selecting whether or not to perform the time monitoring process. Wait for selection input.

  In the eleventh display screen 211, a subject display 211a of "set status" indicating that the time monitoring setting process is being performed, and an item display 211b of "1: on" for selecting to perform the time monitoring process, An item display 211c of "2: OFF" for displaying that the time monitoring process is not performed is displayed. At the same time, an arrow display 211 d indicating which of the items is selected, and an item number display field 211 e displaying the number of the item whose vertical position matches the arrow display 211 d inside are displayed. The same selection operation to the operation unit 32 as the second display screen 202 is performed on the eleventh display screen 211 as well.

  When the selection operation for performing the time monitoring process is input, the control unit 111 shifts to the time setting process for setting the set time. That is, the eleventh display screen 211 is displayed on the display unit 31. For example, as shown in FIG. 9A, the upper and lower positions of the item display 211b of "1: ON" and the arrow display 211d are aligned. When the ENTER key 126 is pressed in a state in which the column 211 e displays “[1]” indicating ON, the control unit 111 causes the storage unit 112 to store the setting for performing the time monitoring process, and Move to setting processing.

  On the other hand, the upper and lower positions of the item display 211c of "2: OFF" and the arrow display 211d are aligned, and the ENTER key 126 is displayed with the item number display column 211e displaying "[2]" indicating OFF. When pressed, the control unit 111 causes the storage unit 112 to store the setting as not performing time monitoring processing, ends the time monitoring setting processing, and displays a fifth display screen 205 for confirming completion of the return delay monitoring setting processing. It is displayed on the display unit 31 and waits for confirmation operation input.

  In the time setting process, the control unit 111 causes the display unit 31 to display, for example, a twelfth display screen 212 as shown in FIG. 9B for inputting a setting time, and waits for an input of the setting time.

  In the twelfth display screen 212, a subject display 212a of "Dangerous setting" indicating that the time monitoring setting process is being performed, and a guidance display 212b of "Dangerous setting ENTER improved" prompting input of the set time are input. The set time display field 212c for displaying the set time is displayed. In a state where the twelfth display screen 212 is displayed, when the set time is input by the character input key group 127 of the operation unit 32, the control unit 111 causes the set time display field 212c to display the input set time. .

  When the set time is input, when the ENTER key 126 is pressed, the control unit 111 stores the input set time in the storage unit 112 and ends the time setting process, and becomes a target of the time monitoring process. The processing shifts to time monitoring target setting processing for setting the holding units 41 and 42.

  In the time monitoring target setting process, the control unit 111 causes the display unit 31 to display, for example, a thirteenth display screen 213 as shown in FIG. 9C for inputting a monitoring target of the time monitoring process. The lock of the lock mechanism 61 is released to make the front cover 13 openable, and waits for an input to the operation button 82.

  On the thirteenth display screen 213, a subject display 213a of "MIHEN CACH HOLDER KANSHI" indicating that return delay monitoring setting processing is being performed, and a guidance display 213b of "HOLDER エ ラ ERAVY ENTER ヲ シ シ シ シ シ シ" for prompting selection input. Display. With the thirteenth display screen 213 displayed, when one or more of the operation buttons 82 are pressed and the ENTER key 126 is pressed, the control unit 111 selects one of the holding units 41 and 42 as follows: Only those that have been turned on by pressing the operation button 82 are set as monitoring targets of the time monitoring process performed at the set time input in the time setting process and stored in the storage unit 112 to be monitored. End the setting process.

  Also in this case, the control unit 111 first turns off all the operation buttons 82 in the time monitoring target setting process. When the operation button 82 is not pressed and the control unit 111 is in the off state, the control unit 111 does not turn on the display lamp 81 provided integrally therewith, and the operation button 82 in the off state is pressed and turned on. Then, the display lamp 81 provided integrally with this is turned on. The display lamp 81 is turned off, and when the operation button 82 in the on state is pressed to be in the off state, the display lamp 81 is turned off.

  In the time monitoring target setting process, when the monitoring target of the time monitoring process is set, the control unit 111 shifts to the time return delay reason presence / absence setting process. In the time return delay reason presence / absence setting process, the control unit 111 selects, for example, whether or not the return delay reason is necessary when there is a return delay, a fourteenth display screen as shown in FIG. Display 214 on the display unit 31 and wait for selection input.

  On the fourteenth display screen 214, a subject display 214a of "Set Folder Name" indicating that the time return delay reason presence / absence setting process is in progress, and "1: for selecting to input a return delay reason" The item display 214b of "on" and the item display 214c of "2: off" for making it unnecessary to input the return delay reason are displayed. At the same time, an arrow display 214d indicating which item is selected, and an item number display column 214e for displaying on the inside the number of the item whose vertical position matches the arrow display 214d are displayed. The same selection operation to the operation unit 32 as the second display screen 202 is performed on the fourteenth display screen 214 as well.

  When the selection operation for inputting the return delay reason is required, the control unit 111 sets the time monitor return delay reason requiring setting requiring return delay reason when return delay occurs in the time monitoring process, while the return delay reason is When the selection operation requiring no input is input, the control unit 111 is set as the time monitoring return delay reason unnecessary setting such that the input of the return delay reason is unnecessary when the return delay occurs in the time monitoring process.

  Here, in the time monitoring return delay reason necessary setting, only those of the holding units 41 and 42 that are set as the monitoring targets of the time monitoring processing in the time monitoring target setting processing are returned when the return delay occurs in the time monitoring processing On the other hand, in the time monitor return delay reason unnecessary setting, it is necessary to input the delay reason, all of the holding units 41 and 42 that are set as the monitoring targets of the time monitoring process in the time monitoring target setting process are monitored When the return delay occurs in processing, it becomes unnecessary to input the return delay reason.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 10A, the upper and lower positions of the item display 214b of "1: ON" and the arrow display 214d are aligned, and the item number display column 214e displays "[1]" indicating ON. When the ENTER key 126 is pressed in the state, the control unit 111 sets time monitor return delay reason requiring setting of return delay reason when return delay occurs in time monitor process, and returns delay monitor setting process The fifth display screen 205 for confirming the completion of the above is displayed on the display unit 31, and a state of waiting for a confirmation operation input is made.

  On the other hand, the upper and lower positions of the item display 214c of "2: OFF" and the arrow display 214d are aligned, and the ENTER key 126 is displayed with the item number display column 214e displaying "[2]" indicating OFF. When pressed, the control unit 111 makes the time monitoring return delay reason unnecessary setting that does not require the input of the return delay reason when the return delay occurs in the time monitoring process, and the fifth display for confirming the completion of the return delay monitoring setting process The screen 205 is displayed on the display unit 31, and a state of waiting for confirmation operation input is established.

  As described above, when the item management device 11 is set to perform the time monitoring process, the time monitoring process is performed only on the holding units 41 and 42 that are set as the monitoring targets in the time monitoring target setting process. This means that the setting time set in the time setting process remains in the state in which the object to be held is taken out after the start of the time monitoring process among the holding units 41 and 42 set as the monitoring targets in the time monitoring target setting process. If the time exceeds, the time will be returned as a time delay. Then, in the time return delay reason presence / absence setting process, when the selection operation of the return delay reason requiring input is inputted and the time monitor return delay reason is required setting, when the return delay is reached, the return delay reason is It will be made to input. On the other hand, even if it is set to perform time monitoring processing, it is returned if the time monitoring return delay reason unnecessary setting is made by the selection operation of the return delay reason not requiring input in the time return delay reason presence / absence setting processing. When the delay is reached, the return delay reason is not input. If the time monitoring process is not set, the time monitoring process is not performed.

  In the above, in the time return delay reason presence / absence setting process, when the selection operation for inputting the return delay reason is required and the time monitor return delay reason is required setting, the control unit 111 selects one of the holding units 41 and 42. All the items set as monitoring targets of time monitoring processing in time monitoring target setting processing are set as those requiring the input of return delay reason when the return delay occurs in time monitoring processing, but are set as monitoring targets of time monitoring processing Among the above, those requiring an input of the return delay reason when the return delay occurs in the time monitoring process may be selected and set.

  That is, in the time return delay reason presence / absence setting process, when there is a return delay from among the holding units 41 and 42 among those set as the monitoring targets of the time monitoring process in the time monitoring target setting process. For example, a fifteenth display screen 215 as shown in FIG. 10B is displayed on the display unit 31 instead of the fourteenth display screen 214 for selectively inputting what requires the return delay reason input. Wait for an input to the operation button 82.

  On the fifteenth display screen 215, a subject display 215a of "Career holder setting" indicating that the time return delay reason presence / absence setting process is in progress, and a guidance display 215b of "Holder エ ラ ERabi ENTER ヲ シ シ ヲ シ" for prompting selection input. And to display. In the state where the fifteenth display screen 215 is displayed, one or more of the operation buttons 82 of the holding units 41 and 42 set as the monitoring targets of the time monitoring processing in the time monitoring target setting processing are pressed When the ENTER key 126 is operated by the operation, the control unit 111 generates a return delay in the time monitoring process only for those of the holding units 41 and 42 that are turned on by the operation button 82 being pressed. At the same time, it is set to one requiring an input of a return delay reason and stored in the storage unit 112.

  In the time return delay reason presence / absence setting process, the control unit 111 first turns off all the operation buttons 82 of the holding units 41 and 42 that are set as the monitoring targets of the time monitoring process in the time monitoring target setting process. When the operation button 82 is pressed and turned on from among the operation buttons 82, the display lamp 81 provided integrally therewith is turned on. When the operation button 82 in which the display lamp 81 is turned on and turned on is pressed to be turned off, the display lamp 81 blinks. At this time, even if the operation button 82 of one of the holding units 41 and 42 other than the one set as the monitoring target of the time monitoring processing in the time monitoring target setting processing is kept off, the integrated display lamp 81 is maintained. Keep the light off.

  Next, the control unit 111 causes the display unit 31 to display a sixteenth display screen 216 as shown in FIG. 10C, for example, for confirming completion of the time return delay reason presence / absence setting process, and performs confirmation operation. Wait for input.

  On the sixteenth display screen 216, a subject display 216a of "set holder status" indicating that the time return delay reason presence / absence setting process is being performed, and a guidance display 216b of "set ヘ ン コ マ シ タ タ ENTER ヲ ヲ シ シ" are displayed. With the sixteenth display screen 216 displayed on the display unit 31, when the ENTER key 126 is pressed, the control unit 111 ends the time return delay reason presence / absence setting process, and the return delay monitoring setting process similar to the above is performed. The fifth display screen 205 for confirming the completion is displayed on the display unit 31, and a state of waiting for a confirmation operation input is made.

  As described above, the item management apparatus 11 selectively sets ON and OFF of the return delay reason input function also in the time monitoring setting process of the holding units 41 and 42. In the selection setting of ON and OFF of the return delay reason input function, all holding units 41 and 42 set as monitoring targets of the time monitoring process are collectively set, or the time monitoring of the holding units 41 and 42 is performed. It is possible to select and set one or more from among those set as process monitoring targets.

  By performing the above return delay monitoring setting processing, all the holding units 41 and 42 are not set as any monitoring targets of timer monitoring processing and time monitoring processing, timer monitoring processing and time monitoring processing. Among them, those set as monitoring targets for only timer monitoring processing, those set as monitoring targets for only time monitoring processing among timer monitoring processing and time monitoring processing, targets for monitoring both timer monitoring processing and time monitoring processing It will be one of those set.

[Return delay reason setting process]
In the article management apparatus 11, a plurality of return delay reasons assumed in advance are registered in the storage unit 112 as candidates for return delay reasons (return delay reason candidates) as return delay reasons input when there is a return delay. It becomes possible, and when there is a return delay, one of the return delay reason candidates can be selected and input. When the return delay reason setting process is included in the above-described operable items of the first display screen, when the selection input of the return delay reason setting process is performed through the operation unit 32, the control unit 111 A return delay reason setting process of storing the return delay reason candidate in the storage unit 112 is performed. In other words, in the article management apparatus 11, input of the return delay reason is registered in advance as a return delay reason candidate as a return delay reason candidate in advance so that it can be selected from the return delay reason list at the time of input. It has become.

  In the return delay reason setting process, a return delay reason candidate registration process in which return delay reason candidates are set and stored in advance, and one of the holding units 41 and 42 that uses the return delay reason candidates set in advance and stored There is a reason candidate use target setting process of setting and storing. When the selection input of the return delay reason setting process is performed, the control unit 111 selects one of the return delay reason candidate registration process and the reason candidate use target setting process, for example, as illustrated in FIG. A seventeenth display screen 217 as shown is displayed on the display unit 31 and waits for selection input.

  In the seventeenth display screen, the subject display 217a of "Henkakuchi Rei Yusetei" indicating that the return delay reason setting process is being performed and the return delay reason candidate registration process are selected as selection items of the return delay reason setting process The item display 217 b of “1: Chen Li Yu Mei Shaw” and the item display 217 c of “2: Chen Li Yu Yu Sho Holder” for selecting the reason candidate use target setting process are displayed. At the same time, an arrow display 217 d indicating which of the items is selected, and an item number display field 217 e for displaying the number of the item whose vertical position matches the arrow display 217 d inside is displayed. Also on the seventeenth display screen 217, the same selection operation to the operation unit 32 as the second display screen 202 is performed.

  When the return delay reason candidate registration process is selected and input from the plurality of selection items of the return delay reason setting process, the control unit 111 performs a return delay reason candidate registration process. That is, in a state where the seventeenth display screen 217 is displayed on the display unit 31, for example, as shown in FIG. 11A, the upper and lower positions of the item display 217b and arrow display 217d of "1: If the ENTER key 126 is pressed while the item number display column 217e displays "[1]" indicating the return delay reason candidate registration processing, the control unit 111 registers the return delay reason candidate. Do the processing.

  In the return delay reason candidate registration process, the control unit 111 causes the display unit 31 to display, for example, an eighteenth display screen 218 as shown in FIG. While displaying in, wait for the input of the code number to set the return delay reason candidate.

  In the eighteenth display screen 218, a subject display 218a of "Chen Li Yu Mei Shaw" indicating that the return delay reason candidate registration processing is being performed, and as an item, the code number is "1" and the reason number is "Li Yu 01" To make it possible to select one with a number number of “2” and a reason number of “Liu Yu” as an item, “1: Li Yu 01” numbering reason number display column 218 b for selecting one that is "2: Li Yu 02" numbered reason number display field 218c and as an item, "3: Li Yu 03" for selecting the item whose code number is "3" and the reason number is "Li Yu 03" And the cause number display field 218d of. At the same time, an arrow display 218e indicating which item is selected, and a number display field 218f for displaying the reference number of the item whose vertical position matches the arrow display 218e are displayed. The same selection operation to the operation unit 32 as the second display screen 202 is performed on the eighteenth display screen 218 as well.

  An eighteenth display screen 218 follows the nineteenth display screen, the twentieth display screen, and the twenty-first display screen (not shown) in which the same reference number reason field and the serial number display field are sequentially displayed. When the upper key 122 or the lower key 123 is operated, the eighteenth display screen 218, the nineteenth display screen (not shown), the twentieth display screen (not shown) and the twenty-first display screen (not shown) are switched. Then, from the eighteenth display screen 218, the nineteenth display screen (not shown), the twentieth display screen (not shown) and the twenty-first display screen (not shown), a desired number reason column is selected. The eighteenth display screen 218 includes the eighteenth display screen 218, the nineteenth display screen (not shown), the twentieth display screen (not shown) and the first page of the twenty-first display screen (not shown). A page display 218g of "1/4" is displayed.

  In a state where the eighteenth display screen 218 is displayed on the display unit 31, for example, as shown in FIG. 11B, the upper and lower positions of the numbering reason number display field 218b of "1: Li Yu 01" and the arrow display 218e. When the ENTER key 126 is pressed in a state in which the code number display column 218f displays “[1]” indicating the code number “1”, for example, as shown in FIG. The 22nd display screen 222 for making the input of the return delay reason candidate as shown in) is displayed on the display unit 31, and the return delay reason corresponding to the code number "1" and the reason number "RIYU 01" Make a candidate input.

  In the twenty-second display screen 222, the subject number 222 of "REYU 01 May Show" indicating that the reason number for inputting the return delay reason candidate is "REYU 01" and the return delay reason candidate registration process is in progress, and the return A guidance display 222 b of “Mei show ニ ュ ニ ュ ヲ ヲ ENTER ヲ ヲ 促 す 促 す” prompting input of a delay reason candidate and a return delay reason candidate display field 222 c for displaying the input return delay reason candidate inside are displayed. With the twenty-second display screen 222 displayed, when a character string is input by the character input key group 127 of the operation unit 32, the control unit 111 returns the input character string in the return delay reason candidate display field 222c. Display on.

  As described above, the article management apparatus 11 sets one of the holding units 41 and 42 that is set to the timer monitor return delay reason required setting in the timer monitor setting process and to the time monitor return delay reason required setting in the time monitor setting process. It is possible to collectively set return delay reason candidates for those that have been set, and individually.

  Further, the item management device 11 sets one of the holding units 41 and 42 that is set to the timer monitor return delay reason necessary setting in the timer monitor setting process and to the time monitor return delay reason required setting in the time monitor setting process. The function that uses return delay reason candidates can be turned on and off together, and can also be turned on and off individually.

[Eject process]
In the standby state, when the appropriate ID card 34 is scanned by the card reader 33, the control unit 111 causes the display unit 31 to display a display screen prompting an input as to whether the key 53 or the storage item 95 is taken out or returned. Display and wait for selection input. In this state, when the extraction selection operation is input, the control unit 111 performs extraction processing. In the removal process, the lock of the cover lock mechanism 61 is released, and the front cover 13 can be opened.

  In this state, the front cover 13 is opened and, for example, the operation button 82 of the holding unit 41 which is permitted to take out the key 53 against the user identification information read by the card reader 33 from the ID card 34 is pressed. The control unit 111 drives the key lock mechanism 76 of the holding unit 41 to release the lock, and turns on the display lamp 81 of the operation button 82. When the IC tag reader 85 detects that the key holder 52, that is, the key 53 has been removed from the holding unit 41, the control unit 111 removes the user identification information input at the time of the removal and the key holder 52. The identification information of the holding unit 41 and the date and time information of extraction are taken out and stored in the storage unit 112 as a history.

  In addition, whether this holding unit 41 is set as any monitoring target of timer monitoring processing or time monitoring processing, is set as a monitoring target of only timer monitoring processing, or monitoring target of only time monitoring processing. It is determined whether it is set or set as a monitoring target of both timer monitoring processing and time monitoring processing. When the holding unit 41 is a monitoring target of the timer monitoring process, the control unit 111 starts the timer monitoring process on the holding unit 41 and starts clocking. When the holding unit 41 is a monitoring target of the time monitoring process, the control unit 111 starts the time monitoring process on the holding unit 41.

  Further, as described above, the front cover 13 is opened, and for example, the operation button 82 of the holding unit 42 in which removal of the storage item 95 is permitted for the user identification information read by the card reader 33 from the ID card 34 When the controller unit 111 is pressed, the control unit 111 drives the pullout lock mechanism 92 of the holding unit 42 to release the lock, and turns on the display lamp 81 of the operation button 82. Then, the pullout member 91 of the holding portion 42 is pulled out, the storage item 95 is taken out from the pullout member 91, and control is performed when the pressing detection sensor 98 and the presence detection sensor 99 detect that the pullout member 91 is pushed. The portion 111 drives the pullout lock mechanism 92 of the holding portion 42 to lock the pullout member 91, and identifies the user identification information input at the time of removal and the identification of the holding portion 42 from which the stored item 95 is taken out. The information and the date and time information of extraction are extracted and stored in the storage unit 112 as a history.

  In addition, whether the holding unit 42 is set as a monitoring target of either timer monitoring processing or time monitoring processing, is set as a monitoring target of only timer monitoring processing, or is a monitoring target of only time monitoring processing. It is determined whether it is set or set as a monitoring target of both timer monitoring processing and time monitoring processing. When the holding unit 42 is to be monitored by the timer monitoring process, the control unit 111 starts the timer monitoring process on the holding unit 42 and starts clocking. In addition, when the holding unit 42 is a monitoring target of the time monitoring process, the control unit 111 starts the time monitoring process on the holding unit 42.

[Return processing]
The article management apparatus 11 is capable of returning the object to be held only for the object associated with the user identification information of the ID card 34 among the holding units 41 and 42 from which the object to be held is taken out. One of the return user confirmation setting mode and the return user confirmation non-setting mode in which the items to be held can be returned regardless of the user identification information of the ID card 34 It is selected and set.

  When the proper ID card 34 is scanned by the card reader 33 in the standby state in both the return user confirmation non-setting mode and return user confirmation setting mode, the control unit 111 controls the key 53 or the storage item A display screen is displayed on the display unit 31 prompting the user to input whether it is taking out or returning 95, and waits for selection input. When the return selection operation is input, the control unit 111 performs return processing.

  In the return processing in the user confirmation unset mode, the cover lock mechanism 61 is unlocked to make the front cover 13 openable, and the holding target article is taken out of the holding portions 41 and 42. Turn on all the indicator lamps 81 That is, in the user confirmation non-setting mode at the time of return, it is possible to return the object to be held for all the holding units 41 and 42 for which the object to be held has been taken out.

  In this state, for example, when the key holder 52 of the key 53 is inserted into the insertion hole 75 of the holding unit 41 from which the key 53 as the object to be held is taken out, the control unit 111 controls the IC tag 73 of the key holder 52. When the IC tag reader 85 communicates with it and determines that the inserted key holder 52 is a proper one corresponding to the holding portion 41, the key lock mechanism 76 of the holding portion 41 is driven to drive the key holder 52. While locking, the display lamp 81 of the holding portion 41 is turned off. Then, the identification information of the holding unit 41 in which the key 53 is returned and the date and time information of return execution are stored in the storage unit 112 as a return history in association with the user identification information at the time of extraction and the date and time information. In addition, when the inserted key holder 52 is not a proper one corresponding to the holding portion 41, the key holder 52 is not locked to the holding portion 41, and identification and return abnormality of the holding portion 41 are displayed on the display portion 31. Display the warning screen of.

  In addition, when the holding unit 41 is a monitoring target of the timer monitoring process, the control unit 111 ends the timer monitoring process and ends the timer monitoring process. In addition, when the holding unit 41 is a monitoring target of the time monitoring process, the control unit 111 ends the time monitoring process.

  As described above, in the state where the front cover 13 is openable and all the display lamps 81 of the holding parts 41 and 42 from which the object to be held is taken out are lit, for example, as the object to be held When the operation button 82 of the holding unit 42 in which the stored item 95 is taken out is pressed, the control unit 111 drives the pullout lock mechanism 92 of the holding unit 42 to release the lock, and the holding unit 42. The display lamp 81 of is blinked. Then, the pullout member 91 of the holding portion 42 is pulled out, the stored item 95 is returned to the pullout member 91, and control is performed when the pressing detection sensor 98 and the presence detection sensor 99 detect that the pullout member 91 is pushed. The unit 111 turns off the display lamp 81 of the holding unit 42, and the identification information of the holding unit 42 for which the stored item 95 is returned and the date and time information of return execution, the user identification information at the time of taking It is stored in the storage unit 112 as a return history in association with information.

  In addition, when the holding unit 42 is a monitoring target of the timer monitoring process, the control unit 111 ends the timer monitoring process and ends the timer monitoring process. When the holding unit 42 is a monitoring target of the time monitoring process, the control unit 111 ends the time monitoring process.

  In return processing in the user confirmation setting mode, the control unit 111 unlocks the cover lock mechanism 61 when the appropriate ID card 34 is scanned by the card reader 33 and a return selection operation is input. And the front cover 13 can be opened, and the holding object is taken out of the holding portions 41 and 42, and the user identification information read from the ID card 34 by the card reader 33 is used. The display lamp 81 is turned on only for the ones for which the return of the object to be held is permitted. That is, in the return user confirmation setting mode, among the items for which the objects to be held by the holding units 41 and 42 are taken out, only those permitted for the user identification information read by the card reader 33 are held. It is possible to return the subject goods. Therefore, even if the key holder 52 inserted into the holding unit 41 is an appropriate one corresponding to the holding unit 41, the holding unit 41 can use the user identification information read by the card reader 33 with respect to the user identification information If the return is not permitted, the key holder 52 is not locked in the holding unit 41, and the display unit 31 displays the identification screen of the holding unit 41 and a warning screen for a return abnormality.

  In the return processing in the user confirmation setting mode for return, the return of the object to be held is limited to those of the holding units 41 and 42 that are permitted for the user identification information, and to the storage unit 112 Although the stored contents are different from the return user confirmation non-setting mode, the remaining contents are substantially the same as the return user confirmation non-setting mode. Of the holding units 41 and 42, those for which return of the object to be held is permitted with respect to the user identification information read from the ID card 34 are basically those for which the user identification information is taken out. is there. Note that the user identification information of the administrator is permitted to return to all the holding units 41 and all the holding units 42.

  When the key 53 is returned to the holder 41 permitted to be returned, the user identification information at the time of return, the identification information of the holder 41 for which the key 53 is returned, and the date and time information of return execution are taken out. The storage unit 112 is stored as a return history in association with the user identification information and the date and time information at that time. In addition, when the storage item 95 is returned to the holding unit 42 in which the storage item 95 is permitted to be returned, the user identification information at the time of the return and the identification information of the holding unit 42 to which the storage item 95 is returned; The date and time information of the return execution is associated with the user identification information at the time of extraction and the date and time information, and stored in the storage unit 112 as a return history.

[Return delay monitoring process]
The control unit 111 controls the timer monitoring process for the monitoring target of the timer monitoring process and the time monitoring process of the holding units 41 and 42 for which the key 53 or the storage item 95 is taken out. Time monitoring processing is performed for the monitoring target. The timer monitoring process monitoring time exceeds the preset timer setting time for the monitoring target of the timer monitoring process and the overrun return delay occurs, and the current time of the monitoring target of the time monitoring process is the current time in advance When the return delay of the time excess occurs by exceeding the set time which has been set, the control unit 111 performs a delayed return process. In the delayed return process, the alarm sound generation unit 113 generates an alarm sound. Here, the case where the occurrence of the return delay among the holding units 41 and 42 is set to the timer monitor return delay reason required setting and the time monitor return delay reason require setting will be described.

  In the user confirmation unset mode at the time of return, when the appropriate ID card 34 is scanned by the card reader 33 in this state, the controller 111 unlocks the cover lock mechanism 61 and opens the front cover 13. While making it possible, the display lamp 81 is blinked among the holding parts 41 and 42 although the return delay has generate | occur | produced.

  When the key holder 52 of the key 53 is inserted into the insertion hole 75 of the holding unit 41 in which a return delay occurs, the control unit 111 causes the IC tag 73 of the key holder 52 to communicate with the IC tag reader 85 and is inserted. When it is determined that the key holder 52 is appropriate for the holding portion 41, the key lock mechanism 76 of the holding portion 41 is driven to lock the key holder 52, and the display lamp 81 of the holding portion 41. Turn off the light. On the other hand, the alarm sound generation of the notification sound generation unit 113 is continued. At the same time, if the holding unit 41 is to be used as a reason candidate, the display unit 31 displays a return delay reason display screen prompting selection input of a return delay reason, for example, as shown in FIG. 26 displays the display screen 226.

  The twenty-sixth display screen 226 is a screen similar to the twenty-seventh display screen (not shown), which is also a return delay reason display screen, the twenty-eighth display screen (not shown), and the twenty-ninth display screen 229 as shown in FIG. The 26th display screen 226, the 27th display screen (not shown), the 28th display screen and the 29th display screen 229 are switched by the operation of the upper key 122 or the lower key 123 of the operation unit 32. There is. On the 26th display screen 226, the 27th display screen not shown, the 28th display screen not shown and the 29th display screen 229, the response delay reason candidates currently registered for each of a plurality of ascending order reference numbers are displayed corresponding I am waiting for the selection input of the return delay reason candidate to use. The control unit 111 communicates with the IC tag 73 of the key holder 52 and the IC tag reader 85 and determines that the inserted key holder 52 is not appropriate for the holding unit 41. The key holder 52 is not locked to 41, and the display lamp 81 of the holder 41 is not turned off.

  Also, for example, when the operation button 82 of the holding unit 42 in which the return delay occurs is pressed, the control unit 111 drives the pullout lock mechanism 92 of the holding unit 42 to release the lock. Then, when the push-out detection sensor 98 and the presence / absence detection sensor 99 detect that the pullout member 91 of the holding portion 42 is pulled out and the storage item 95 is returned to the pullout member 91 and the pullout member 91 is pushed in The pullout lock mechanism 92 of the portion 42 is driven to lock the holding portion 42 and the display lamp 81 is turned off. On the other hand, the generation of the alarm sound of the notification sound generation unit 113 is continued. At the same time, if the storage unit 42 is to be used as a reason candidate, the display unit 31 displays a twenty-sixth display screen 226, which is a return delay reason display screen prompting selection input of a return delay reason, for return Wait for selection input of delay reason candidate. Note that the control unit 111 does not detect that the storage item 95 is returned to the pullout member 91 of the holding unit 42 and the pullout member 91 is pushed in, if the presence detection sensor 99 and the push detection sensor 98 do not detect this. 42 is not locked, and the display lamp 81 of the holder 42 is not turned off.

  In the twenty-sixth display screen 226, a subject display 226a of "Cenri Yusenku" indicating that selection processing of return delay reason candidates is in progress, and a return delay reason for return omission set for the number "1" are selected. Item display 226b of "1: Henckakwasle" for making it possible, and item display 226c of "2: Sagyo uokure" for making it possible to select the return delay reason of the operation delay set for the code number "2", and the code number An item display 226 d of “3: error” is displayed to select the reason for delaying return of the apparatus error set for “3”. At the same time, the arrow display 226e showing which item is selected, the number display column 226f for displaying the reference number of the item whose upper and lower positions coincide with the arrow display 226e, the 26th display screen 226, the illustration omitted A page display 226 g of “1/4” indicating that the display screen is the first page of the 28th display screen and the 29th display screen 229 is displayed.

  In the twenty-ninth display screen 229, a subject display 229a of "Chien Li Younmark" indicating that selection processing of return delay reason candidates is in progress, and a return delay reason for loss or damage set for the code number "10" The item display 229b of "10: Funcuit / Hason" for making it select is displayed. Further, on the twenty-ninth display screen 229, an item display 229c of "11: Tsugihe" for setting to return to the twenty-sixth display screen 226 set for the code number "11", and a code number "12 The item display 229 d of “12: sonota” for selecting the text input of the return delay reason candidate which is not set in the option is displayed. At the same time, the arrow display 229e showing which item is selected, the number display column 229f for displaying the reference number of the item whose upper and lower position matches the arrow display 226e, the 26th display screen 226, the not shown A page display 229 g of “4/4” indicating that it is the fourth page of the 27th display screen, the 28th display screen (not shown) and the 29th display screen 229 is displayed.

  In this state, when any return delay reason candidate is selected and confirmed and input, the control unit 111 ends the generation of the alarm sound of the notification sound generation unit 113, and the key 53 is returned with a delay this time. The identification information of the holding unit 41 or the holding unit 42 for which the stored item 95 has been returned with a delay this time, the date and time information of the return delay occurrence, the date and time information of return execution, and the return delay is either time over or time over. The error name indicating whether or not the selected return delay reason candidate is associated with the user identification information at the time of extraction and the date and time information and stored in the storage unit 112 as a return history. In addition, the control unit 111 ends the timer monitoring process and the time monitoring process in which the objects to be held are returned among the holding units 41 and 42, which are to be monitored.

  On the twenty-sixth display screen 226, for example, as shown in FIG. 13A, the arrow display 226e aligns the upper and lower positions with the item display 226b of "1: Henckakwasle", and the code number of "1" in the code number display field 226f. In the displayed state, when the ENTER key 126 is pressed, the control unit 111 causes the storage unit 112 to store the above information as a return history, including the "return forgetting" as the selected return delay reason candidate.

  In addition, the selection input of the return delay reason candidate is not limited to one, and a plurality can be selected, and the plurality of return delay reason candidates selected and input can be returned from the holding object among the holding units 41 and 42. It may be stored in the storage unit 112 as a return history in association with the information. That is, at least one return delay reason candidate is selected and input in association with one of the holding units 41 and 42 for which the holding object has been returned due to a delayed return, and stored in the storage unit 112 as a return history. Let

  Also, when the 26th display screen 226 which is a return delay reason display screen, the 27th display screen (not shown), the 28th display screen (not shown) and the 29th display screen 229 are not selected as options for return delay reasons In addition, when the option for text input for the return delay reason is selected and input, the control unit 111 causes the display unit 31 to display, for example, a thirtieth display screen 230 as shown in FIG. , And displays a message prompting the user to input a text for the reason for the return delay, and waits for an input to the operation unit 32. That is, in the 29th display screen 229, as shown in FIG. 13B, the arrow display 229e aligns the upper and lower positions with the item display 229d of "12: sonota", and the code number of "12" is displayed in the code number display field 229f. In the displayed state, when the ENTER key 126 is pressed, the control unit 111 causes the display unit 31 to display a thirtieth display screen 230.

  This 30th display screen 230 is a screen for inputting other return delay reasons as a text input screen indicating “Sonotatien Liu Yu” title prompting, and “probable input for return delay reasons” And an input character display field 230c for displaying the input character string. When a character string is input using the character input key group 127 of the operation unit 32 in a state in which the thirtieth display screen 230 is displayed, the control unit 111 displays the input text character string in the input character display field 230c. Let

  When the return delay reason is text input, and the ENTER key 126 is pressed as the confirmation input, the control unit 111 receives the input return reason and the holding unit 41 for which the key 53 is returned this time or the current time Identification information of the holding unit 42 in which the storage item 95 is returned after being delayed, an error name indicating whether the return delay is over time or over time, date and time information of return delay occurrence, and date and time information of return execution Are associated with the user identification information at the time of extraction and the date and time information, and stored in the storage unit 112 as a return history. In addition, the control unit 111 ends the timer monitoring process and the time monitoring process in which the objects to be held of the holding units 41 and 42 are returned.

  On the other hand, in the delayed return process in the return user confirmation mode, the alarm sound generation unit 113 generates an alarm sound as in the return user confirmation non-setting mode, but at this time, the control unit 111 Causes the display unit 31 to display a 31st display screen 231 shown in FIG. 14A, for example, to prompt the card reader 33 to scan the ID card 34. That is, in the delayed return process in the user confirmation unset mode at the time of return, when the front cover 13 is in the open state before that, the object to be held is not scanned even if the ID card 34 does not scan the card reader 33. Although the return is possible, the delayed return process in the user confirmation setting mode at return requires scanning of the ID card 34 to the card reader 33.

  The 31st display screen 231 displays the date and time information at that point in time "Date and time display 231a of" 20XX / 11/12 10:15 ", and" card ヲ テ ク テ ク テ ク テ ク テ ク テ ク 促 す "to urge scanning of the ID card 34 to the card reader 33 And the guidance display 231b of. At this time, the display unit 31 may display alarm contents including the identification of one of the holding units 41 and 42 in which the return delay has occurred.

  In this state, when the card reader 33 scans the appropriate ID card 34, the control unit 111 prompts an input as to whether the key 53 or the storage item 95 is taken out or returned, for example, as shown in FIG. The 32nd display screen 232 as shown in b) is displayed on the display unit 31 and waits for selection input.

  On the thirty-second display screen 232, a guidance display 232a of "trid / キ ャ セ ン タ ク シ ク シ ク シ ク シ ク シ 、" is displayed, and an item display 232b of "1: trid ashi" for selecting extraction and a return are selected as selection items. The item display 232c of "2: Henkyak" is displayed. At the same time, an arrow display 232 d indicating which of the selection items is selected and an item number display field 232 e for displaying the number of the selection item whose vertical position matches the arrow display 232 d are displayed. The same selection operation to the operation unit 32 as the second display screen 202 is performed on the thirty-second display screen 232 as well.

  In the thirty-second display screen 232, for example, as shown in FIG. 14B, the upper and lower positions of the arrow display 232d are aligned with the item display 232c of "2: Henkyak" indicating that return is selected, and the item number display column 232e With the number “2” displayed on the screen, when the ENTER key 126 is pressed and the return selection operation is input, the control unit 111 performs delayed return almost the same as the user confirmation unset mode at return. Although processing is to be performed, at that time, as with the above-described return processing, among the holding units 41 and 42, only those for which return of the object to be held is permitted for the user identification information read from the ID card 34 The object to be held can be returned.

  Therefore, even if the key holder 52 inserted into the holding unit 41 is an appropriate one corresponding to the holding unit 41, the user identification information read by the card reader 33 by the holding unit 41 corresponds to the object to be held. If return is not permitted, the key holder 52 is not locked to the holding portion 41, and the display lamp 81 of the holding portion 41 is not turned off, and the identification of the holding portion 41 is displayed on the display portion 31. And display the warning screen of return abnormality. In this case, when the card reader 33 scans the ID card 34 storing the user identification information for which the return of the object to be held is permitted to the holding unit 41, the key holder 52 is locked to the holding unit 41. The display lamp 81 of the holding unit 41 is turned off.

  The appropriate key 53 corresponding to the user identification information is returned to the holding unit 41 that is permitted to return the key 53 as the object to be held, and the reason for the return delay is the same as in the user confirmation unset mode at the time of return When the selection input or text input is performed, the control unit 111 receives the user identification information at the time of return, the input reason for delaying return, the identification information of the holding unit 41 where the key 53 is returned, and the return delay. An error name indicating which is over time or overtime, date and time information of return delay occurrence, and date and time information of return execution are associated with the user identification information and date and time information at the time of extraction, and stored as a return history storage unit 112 Remember.

  In addition, the storage item 95 is returned to the holding unit 42 in which the return of the storage item 95 as the object to be held is permitted for the user identification information, and the return delay reason is selected and input similarly to the user confirmation unset mode at return. When the text is input, the control unit 111 causes the user identification information at the time of return, the input reason for delaying return, the identification information of the holding unit 42 at which the stored item 95 is returned, and the return delay time out. And an error name indicating whether the time is over, date and time information of return delay occurrence, and date and time information of return execution, in association with the user identification information and date and time information at the time of extraction, in the storage unit 112 as return history Remember.

  Here, in the above, when the key 53 is returned to the return delay holding unit 41 or the storage item 95 is returned to the return delay holding unit 42, the return delay reason can be input, but the return is possible. In either the user confirmation non-setting mode or the return user confirmation setting mode, either the return delay key 53 or the storage item 95 is returned or the return delay reason is input first. Also good. For example, if the ID card 34 is scanned by the card reader 33 in the user confirmation setting mode at return, input of the return delay reason becomes possible without waiting for return, and when input of the return delay reason is completed, an alarm sound is output. After stopping the operation, the display lamp 81 is turned off when the return delay key 53 or the storage item 95 is returned.

  Note that although the control unit 111 causes the alarm sound generation unit 113 to generate an alarm sound when performing the delayed return process, the alarm sound can be stopped by the alarm sound stop operation to the operation unit 32. ing. That is, when the person to be returned is absent or the like and the alarm sound continues to sound, it is possible for another person (administrator etc.) to input the alarm sound stop operation to stop the alarm sound. The alarm sound stop operation to the operation unit 32 is, for example, a pressing operation of the CE key 128. In this case, even after the alarm sound stop operation, the display lamp 81 of the holding units 41 and 42 in which the return delay has occurred is on, and based on the lighting of the display lamp 81, a key is held in the holding unit 41. 53 are returned to the holding unit 42, respectively.

  At this time, when the key holder 52 of the key 53 is inserted into the holding unit 41 in which the return delay occurs, the control unit 111 causes the alarm sound generation unit 113 to generate an alarm sound again. In this state, when the reason for the return delay is selected and input and confirmed, the control unit 111 ends the generation of the alarm sound of the notification sound generation unit 113. Similarly, when the operation button 82 of the holding unit 42 in which the return delay occurs is pressed, the control unit 111 causes the notification sound generation unit 113 to generate an alarm sound again. Thereafter, the return of the storage item 95 to the holding unit 42 is confirmed, and when the reason for the return delay is selected and input or the text is input and confirmed, the control unit 111 ends the generation of the alarm sound of the notification sound generation unit 113. .

  Also in this case, after the alarm sound is stopped by the alarm sound stop operation to the operation unit 32, for example, when the ID card 34 is scanned by the card reader 33, the return delay key 53 or the storage item 95 is waited for return. Instead, it may be possible to input a return delay reason. At that time, when the ID card 34 is scanned by the card reader 33, an alarm sound is generated again, and when the return delay reason input is completed, the alarm sound is stopped, and then the return delay key 53 or storage is performed. When the object 95 is returned, the display lamp 81 is turned off.

  Here, at the time of delayed return processing in the user confirmation setting mode upon return, if the front cover 13 is already open, the ID card 34 is not scanned to the card reader 33, and a return delay is occurring. The key holder 52 may be inserted into the portion 41. In this case, even if the key holder 52 inserted into the holding unit 41 of the return delay is an appropriate one corresponding to the holding unit 41, the control unit 111 can lock the key holder 52 in the holding unit 41. Otherwise, without displaying the display lamp 81 of the holding unit 41 off, the display unit 31 displays the warning screen of the identification of the holding unit 41 and the return abnormality. Thereafter, when the card reader 33 scans the ID card 34 storing the user identification information for which the return of the object to be held is permitted to the holding unit 41, the control unit 111 causes the holding unit 41 to lock the key. The holder 52 is locked, and the display lamp 81 of the holder 41 is turned off.

[Output processing]
In the standby state, when the appropriate ID card 34 is scanned by the card reader 33 and the MENU key 121 of the operation unit 32 is pressed, the control unit 111 responds to the user identification information read from the ID card 34. The permitted operable item is read out, and a first display screen for selecting one of the operable items is displayed on the display unit 31 and waits for selection input. When the process history output process of outputting the process history of the holding unit 41, 42 including the return history is included in the operable item of the first display screen, the control unit is selected when the process history output process is selected and input. A step 111 causes the display unit 31 to display a designation input screen of an output destination of processing history data, and waits for a designation input of the output destination. As an output destination, there are a printer unit 36 of the item management apparatus 11 and an external management apparatus connected by a wired or wireless network, a portable recording medium such as a USB memory, and the like.

  When the printer unit 36 is selected as the output destination, the control unit 111 outputs the processing history data to the printer unit 36 by processing history output processing, and causes the printer unit 36 to print on a sheet. The print contents include, for example, the identification information of the holding units 41 and 42, the time when extraction and return were performed, the specific name indicating the object to be held when registered, and the return delay, if any. The error name of delay (time over or time over), return delay reason when it is input, purpose of use, user identification information and the like.

  Here, the specific name is set by the customer for simple identification with respect to the object to be held, that is, the holding units 41 and 42, and each of the holding units 41 and 42 is a predetermined input operation via the operation unit 32. Are individually set in advance and stored in the storage unit 112. In addition, a plurality of usage purposes are set in advance and stored in the storage unit 112 by a predetermined input operation via the operation unit 32, and from the registered ones, the appropriate usage purpose is the key 53, as necessary. Alternatively, it is selected and set when the storage item 95 is taken out.

  For example, in the case of printing by the printer unit 36 at the time of operation in the user confirmation non-setting mode at return, as shown in FIG. 15, a character string of "<20XX May 03>" indicating the target date. 235a, a character string 235b of "scrutiny" indicating that the processing history is scrutinized printing, a character string 235c of "holder 001" indicating that the key holder 52 held by the first holding unit 41, and The character string 235 d of “W16: 24” indicating the time when the key holder 52 of the holder 001 is taken out from the first holding unit 41 and the fact that it is taken out by double authentication, and the key holder 52 of this holder 001 is the first A character string 235 e of “16:29” indicating the time returned to the holding unit 41 is printed on the sheet 235. In addition, a character string "235f" which is a specific name of the key holder 52 of the holder 001, and a character string "235g" "Gomukaishi" inputted as the use purpose of the key holder 52 of the holder 001, The authentication method and the authenticated user identification information, the character string 235 h of “card: Suzuki Hanako” and the character string “card: Yamada Taro” 235 i are printed on the paper 235.

  In addition, a character string 235 j of “holder 002” indicating that it is the key holder 52 held by the second holding unit 41, the time when the key holder 52 of the holder 002 is taken out from the second holding unit 41 and a single A character string 235k of "S16: 27" indicating that the key holder 52 has been taken out by authentication, and a character string 235m of "16:39" indicating a time when the key holder 52 of the holder 002 is returned to the second holding unit 41. Is printed on the paper 235. In addition, a character string 235n of "Meishow: Uketsuke" which is a specific name of the key holder 52 of the holder 002, a character string 235o of "time over" which is an error name of return delay of the key holder 52 of the holder 002, Character string 235p of “Liuyu: Sagyo uokure” entered as the reason for delaying return of the key holder 52 of the holder 002, and character string 235q of “card: Yamada Taro” which is the authentication method and authenticated user identification information It is printed on paper 235.

  In addition, a character string 235 r of “holder 003” indicating that it is the key holder 52 held by the third holding unit 41, time and single when the key holder 52 of the holder 003 is taken out from the third holding unit 41 The character string 235s of "S16: 00" showing that it has been taken out by authentication, and the character string 235t of "16:15" showing the time when the key holder 52 of this holder 003 is returned to the third holding unit 41. Is printed on the paper 235. In addition, a character string 235u of "Diagram" is an error name of return delay of the key holder 52 of the holder 003, and a character string 235v of "Re: error" input as a return delay reason of the key holder 52 of the holder 003. And a character string 235 w of “card: Yamada Taro”, which is the authentication method and the authenticated user identification information, is printed on the paper 235.

  In the output process, time information on occurrence of return delay may be output as information on return delay, in addition to the error name and return delay reason. For example, in place of the character string 235 o of “time over” of the print content shown in FIG. 15, the character string “time over hassle 16: 28” is printed.

  In addition, the user who performed the history printing for each key holder 52 and each storage item 95, in other words, the combined printing and total printing of the history for each holding unit 41 and 42, and the combined printing and total printing for each return delay reason, and taking out. It is also possible to print collectively and separately for each identification information, and to see the amount and tendency of return delay reasons for each. It is needless to say that the display screen displayed on the display unit 31 and the print content by the printer unit 36 described above are an example, and the terms and modes are not limited to this.

  The key management device as an article management device is warned by a buzzer that a return delay such as time over or time over has occurred if the time during which the holder is taken out exceeds a preset timer setting time or setting time. There are some which have a monitoring function to be performed, and some of them store error contents of over time or over time when these return delays occur. For this reason, the error contents can be grasped by checking the history of return delay. However, the reason for not being able to return the holder by the timer setting time or setting time is unknown. Therefore, it is necessary for the administrator to confirm the reason for delay to the target person.

  On the other hand, when the control unit 111 determines that there is a delay in the return of the key 53 and the storage item 95, the item management device 11 according to the present embodiment causes the operation unit 32 to return the return delay reason. Since it is possible to input, by storing the input return delay reason in the storage unit 112, it is possible to include the return delay reason in the information on the return of the article, and to manage the information on the return of the article in detail It becomes. In other words, it is possible to strictly control the return of goods. As a result, if the return delay reason of the return stored in the storage unit 112 is read out, the return delay reason can be confirmed without inquiring the person, and the burden on the administrator can be reduced. In addition, it is possible to psychologically suppress the return delay by inputting the return delay reason at the time of the return of the article. In addition, by entering the return delay reason at the time of return, it is possible to prevent time delay after the return and forget the return delay reason or report an ambiguous return delay reason. Accurately understand return delay reasons.

  Further, since the control unit 111 sets the necessity of the input of the return delay reason by the setting operation to the operation unit 32, for example, it is possible to set so as to require the input of the return delay reason to only important articles. Improves the quality.

  Further, since a plurality of return delay reasons are registered in advance as return delay reason candidates in the storage unit 112 and selection among a plurality of return delay reason candidates is possible by the operation unit 32, the return delay reason is input In this case, it is only necessary to select and enter from among the plurality of return delay reason candidates registered, the input operation of the return delay reason becomes easy, and the labor of the return delay reason input can be reduced.

  Further, since the control unit 111 can output the return delay reason input and stored in the storage unit 112, the reason is stored in the storage unit 112 and read and confirmed later, or output to the printer unit 36 and printed on paper It is possible to output and store it on a portable medium, or to store it on another device, display it, or print it out.

  The above embodiment can be modified as in the following modification.

<Modification 1>
The article management apparatus 11 is not suitable for holding the holding portion 41 holding the key holder 52 attached to the key main body 51, and holding the ID card, seal, documents, etc. in the holding portion 41 attached to the key main body 51. However, only the holding portion 41 for holding the key holder 52 attached to the key main body 51 may be provided, and the pull-out holding Only the part 42 may be provided. Moreover, if it is a holding | maintenance part which hold | maintains articles | goods unremovable and can take out and return the articles | goods hold | maintained, it may be an article management apparatus provided with the other holding part. For example, you may comprise by the storage which has a hinge opening-type or slide opening-and-closing type door.

<Modification 2>
In the timer monitoring setting process, the notice timer time shorter than this is set in addition to the timer setting time, and after the start of the timer monitoring process, when the notice timer time is exceeded before the timer setting time is exceeded, The notification sound generation unit 113 may generate a warning alarm sound. As the advance notice timer time, when the timer set time is set, the control unit 111 may set a preset time automatically by subtracting it from the timer set time. After the start of the timer monitoring process, the alarm sound is differentiated depending on whether the notice timer time has exceeded and the timer set time has exceeded thereafter. For example, after the start of the timer monitoring process, the advance notice alarm sound at the time when the advance notice timer time is exceeded is an intermittent sound, and the main alarm sound when the timer set time is exceeded is a continuous sound. Further, the advance alarm sound may be stopped at a predetermined time before the generation of the main alarm sound as the generation of a short time. In this case, even if the advance notice timer time is exceeded after the start of the timer monitoring process, if the timer set time does not exceed, the return delay of the time-over will not be made, and the input of the return delay reason is also unnecessary.

  For example, when 30 minutes is input to the operation unit 32 as the timer setting time for the holding unit 41, the control unit 111 sets the timer setting time to 30 minutes, and 27 minutes is input to the operation unit 32 as the advance notice timer time. Then, the control unit 111 sets the advance notice timer time to 27 minutes. Then, when the key holder 52 is not returned even 27 minutes after the start of the timer monitoring process which is started by taking out the key holder 52 from the holding unit 41, a warning alarm sound will be generated, and then 3 minutes If the key holder 52 is not returned even after passing, this alarm sound will be generated. In this case, the advance notice timer time may be set by inputting a retroactive time from the timer setting time. That is, when 30 minutes is input to the operation unit 32 as the timer setting time, the control unit 111 sets the timer setting time to 30 minutes, and when 3 minutes is input to the operation unit 32 as the backward timer of the advance notice timer time. The controller 111 sets the advance notice timer time to 27 minutes three minutes before the timer set time.

  Also in this case, the main alarm sound generated when the timer setting time is over can be stopped by the alarm sound stop operation such as the pressing operation of the CE key 128 to the operation unit 32 in the same manner as described above. Similarly, the generated advance alarm sound can be stopped by the alarm sound stop operation such as the pressing operation of the CE key 128 on the operation unit 32. If the alarm sound does not sound but the timer setting time is over, the alarm sound will sound when the key holder 52 is inserted, and the return process will not be completed unless the return delay reason is selected or the text is input. I assume.

  The same applies to the time monitoring setting process. That is, in addition to the set time, the notice time shorter than this may be set, and the notice alarm sound may be generated when the notice time comes before the set time. The advance notice time may be automatically set by subtracting the retroactive time set in advance from the set time, when the set time is set. Also in this case, it is preferable to make the alarm sound different between when the advance notice time is reached and when the set time is reached. In addition, since it does not become a return delay of time excess if it does not come before the set time even when the advance notice time comes, it becomes unnecessary to input the return delay reason.

  In the second modification, when the return of the key 53 and the storage item 95, which is an article, approaches the return delay state, the advance alarm sound is generated as the first notification, and the return delay of the key 53 and the storage item 95 is delayed. In this state, the main alarm sound is generated as a second notification different from the first notification. Thereby, it can suppress that it will be in the state of return delay. Further, the key holder 52 of the key 53 and the device body 12 can be communicated with each other, and the key holder 52 is provided with a display unit such as an alarm sound generating unit, an LED lamp or a liquid crystal panel. Under control, a notice sound generation unit provided in the key holder 52 may generate a notice alarm sound or a main alarm sound, or the display unit may notify that the notice time or the set time has come.

<Modification 3>
It is also possible to construct the article management system including the article management apparatus 11 and the external management apparatus by providing the storage unit 112 or the like in an external management apparatus connected via a network. In this case, as an output destination in the output process, the printer unit 36 of the article management apparatus 11 and an external management apparatus connected to the article management apparatus 11 via a network are set. Then, in the output process, when the printer unit 36 is selected as the output destination, the control unit 111 performs the scrutiny printing by the printer unit 36, and when the external management apparatus is selected as the output destination, the external management Output to the device for storage. This external management apparatus can print on a history form.

  Further, in the case of the above article management system, the article management apparatus 11 may output, to the external management apparatus at the time of occurrence, the timer setting time exceeded, the notice timer time exceeded, the set time excess, the notice time excess, etc. it can. In this case, the external management device can notify the terminal device of the take-out person by e-mail or the like at the time of occurrence such as exceeding the timer setting time, exceeding the notification timer time, exceeding the setting time, exceeding the notification time, etc. Become. Also, when the timer setting time is exceeded and the setting time is exceeded, the external management device receives an input of the return delay reason from the browser or the like of the terminal device of the notification target person, and inputs it to the article management device 11. It is good. In this case, the item management device 11 stops the alarm sound when the return delay reason is input from the outside. In this way, when the key holder 52 or the storage item 95 is returned, the alarm ringing is stopped, and the normal return operation is performed without performing the selective input of the return delay reason or the text input. The return process is complete.

<Modification 4>
The stored item 95 is provided with an IC tag in which an individual identification number for identifying the stored item 95 is stored, and the stored item 95 stored in the drawer member 91 is provided in each of the plurality of holding portions 42. As an article detection unit that can communicate with the IC tag and detects removal of the storage item 95 by switching from the communication state to the non-communication state and detects return of the storage item 95 by switching from the non-communication state to the communication state An IC tag reader may be provided. By configuring in this way, with respect to the holding unit 42 as well as the holding unit 41, taking out and returning of the corresponding stored items 95 can be accurately managed one by one, and more appropriate management can be performed.
