[Examples] Examples of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. This embodiment is an example in which the present invention is used in a production line for automobiles.

A: Structure of Embodiment Structure of Automatic Warehouse FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing the structure of the automatic warehouse 1 used in an embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, an automated warehouse 1 is composed of a three-dimensional automated warehouse 1a and a horizontal rotary automated warehouse 1b. The three-dimensional automated warehouse 1a has a large number of storage units arranged in a matrix, and a crane device that is movable in the horizontal and vertical directions enables loading and unloading of components in each storage unit. The three-dimensional automatic warehouse 1a handles relatively large parts, and these large parts are handled while being stored in a predetermined number in a bucket B (see FIG. 5). Reference numeral 3 denotes a carry-in port of a bucket, and the bucket 4 carried in from here is carried into a predetermined section by a crane device after sequentially passing through a storage lane 5 and a storage station.

The horizontal rotary automatic warehouse 1b has a large number of storage units that swivel in the horizontal direction, and these storage units configure a swivel conveyor. In addition, the swiveling conveyor is configured in multiple stages, and further three multistage conveyors are provided. Then, it is possible to carry in and carry out parts to and from any of the storage parts of any stage by a predetermined loading / unloading device. The horizontal rotary automatic warehouse 1b handles relatively small parts, and these small parts are carried on a pallet (not shown).
Numeral 10 is a pallet carry-in entrance, and the pallet 10 carried in from here is carried into one of the storage sections by an entrance / exit device after sequentially passing through the warehousing lane 11 and the warehousing station. Next, 20 and 21 are exit preparation lanes for buckets and pallets, respectively, for transporting buckets unloaded from the three-dimensional automatic warehouse 1a and pallets unloaded from the horizontal rotary automatic warehouse 1b. Delivery preparation lane 20
Is branched into the exit lanes 22, 23, 24. These shipping lanes 22, 23, 24 supply parts to the first, second, and third manufacturing lines, respectively. The delivery preparation lane 21 branches into delivery lanes 25L, 25R, 26L, 26R, 27L and 27R. These shipping lanes 25L and 25R supply parts to the first manufacturing line, shipping lanes 26L and 26R supply parts to the second manufacturing line, and shipping lanes 27L and 27R supply parts to the third manufacturing line. To do. Further, 28 is an emergency delivery lane used when urgently unloading a single-part component, and 30 is a re-stocking lane used when the once-delivered part is again loaded into the warehouse.

Configuration of Control System Next, FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing an electrical configuration of the same embodiment. In the figure, reference numeral 40 is a host computer installed in the head office, which creates a production plan. The production plan is a plan for determining how many cars of which model will be manufactured by when. 41 is a parts table file managed by the host computer 40, and the parts table file 41 stores a list of parts required for each vehicle type. In this case, for each part, a unique part number and use target data indicating which vehicle model the part is used for are set. Therefore, the parts can be grouped for each vehicle type based on the usage target data, and the list of the part numbers thus grouped is stored in the parts table file 41. In addition, the host computer 40 creates order data for instructing each parts manufacturer to order parts based on the production plan. This ordering data has a one-to-one correspondence with the ordering slip, and is made up of data indicating the slip number, the part number, the quantity, the delivery date and time, the line in which the part is used, and the like. The slip number is unique to each slip, and the same number is not assigned.

A host computer 42 is installed in the factory and performs data communication with the host computer 40 at the head office. Through this data communication, the production plan, order data and parts list related to the factory are transferred. The transferred production plan is stored in the production plan file 43. The host computer 42 drives the slip issuing unit 44 to print out the order slip 45. This voucher is issued according to the ordering data transferred from the host computer 40. On the slip 45, a slip number, a part number, a supplier, and the like are printed, and a bar code indicating the slip number is printed. Reference numeral 46 is a carry-in performance file, in which order data corresponding to the issued slip is stored. This accumulation is performed to calculate the payment amount to the parts manufacturer later.

On the other hand, the parts manufacturer has the handy terminal 48 shown in FIG. 4, and stores information about the parts to be delivered in the memory card MC using the handy terminal 48. This storage process is performed as follows.

First, the parts to be delivered are placed in buckets or pallets for handling. Then, as shown in FIG. 5, the bucket B (or pallet) is provided with a bar code label BL. The bar code printed on the bar code label BL indicates a serial number (hereinafter referred to as a container number) for identifying the bucket and the pallet.
This barcode label BL is issued in advance and distributed to each component manufacturer. Further, the parts manufacturer attaches the bar code label BL to the predetermined position of the bucket or pallet in advance. Then, when packing the delivery, the barcode of the slip 45 is scanned by the pen scanner 48a, and the handy terminal 48 reads the slip number. When reading the slip number, the handy terminal 48 displays a message on the display unit 48b to read the container number. Therefore, the operator has the bar code label BL
Scan with the pen scanner 48a, and then handy terminal 4
Have 8 read the container number. Next, enter the number of parts stored in the container from the numeric keypad of the handy terminal 48, and press the "execute key". As a result, the slip number,
The container number and the number of containers are stored as one data set. Here, the order contents in the slip 45 are contents instructing the parts to be delivered and the total number thereof, but the bucket B (or pallet) cannot generally store the total number of orders. Therefore, usually, a plurality of buckets correspond to one slip post number.

Further, one memory card MC is assigned to one transportation truck. Therefore, the operator of the parts maker performs the above-mentioned operation for all buckets (or pallets) to be loaded in one truck, and stores the data set including the container number, the slip number, and the number in the memory card MC for each bucket. .

Next, reference numeral 50 shown in FIG. 1 is a sub-host computer installed at the warehouse site, and performs data communication with the host computer 42. The sub host computer 50 has two CPs
It has U, and automatically switches to the other CPU if one CPU fails. That is, the duplex system is configured. In addition, the connected devices and terminals are automatically connected to a normal CPU, so work is not interrupted even if a failure occurs.

Data communication with the host computer 42 is normally performed once a day, and data necessary for daily operation of the warehouse is transferred. Further, when the host computer 40 creates slip data for replenishment, this replenishment slip data is transferred to the sub-host computer 50 via the host computer 42. Communication of replenishment slip data is performed by batch processing, and a predetermined amount of data is collectively transferred. Then, the communication of the replenishment slip data is performed in parallel even during the warehousing process described later. This is because the sub-host 50 has two CPUs, and therefore data communication can be performed by the other CPU even when one of the CPUs performs the warehousing process.

Under the control of the sub-host computer 50, a carry-in plan file 51, an assembly plan file 52, a component file 53, an inventory master file 54, and a warehouse status file 55 are provided. To the carry-in plan file 51, carry-in scheduled data for one day is transferred from the host computer 42. This carry-in scheduled data is data extracted from the order data sent by the host computer 40, for the part carried into the warehouse. Therefore, the import plan file
By looking at the contents of 51, it is possible to search the part number of the part to be carried into the warehouse on that day, and to confirm the relationship between the slip number and the part number. Assembly plan file 52
In, the production plan for the warehouse is written. This writing is performed as follows. First, the host computer 42 extracts data relevant to the warehouse from the data in the production planning file 43, the extracted data is transferred to the sub-host 50, and is written in the assembly planning file 52 by the sub-host 50. Further, the component file 53 stores a parts table list that stores the relationship between the parts handled by the warehouse and the vehicle type. This writing is performed by the host computer 42 extracting from the BOM list transferred from the host computer 40 that is relevant to the warehouse, and transferring this to the component BOM via the sub-host 50. The inventory master file 54 is a file that stores which parts and how many parts are in which places in the three-dimensional automatic warehouse 1a and the horizontal rotary automatic warehouse 1b described above. The warehouse status file 55 stores how many parts are in the warehouse. That is, the inventory master file 54
The data obtained by compressing the data inside (the data obtained by removing the data at the storage location) is stored.

Reference numeral 58 shown in FIG. 3 is a handy terminal, 58a is its pen scanner, and the handy terminal 48 shown in FIG.
It has the same function as. This Handy Terminal 58
Exchange data with the sub-host computer 50. Then, when the memory card MC is inserted into the handy terminal 58, the data is read,
It is designed to be transferred to the sub host 50. As described above, various data is written in the memory card MC by the operator of the parts maker. After this writing, each bucket B is loaded on the truck together with the memory card MC and carried into the warehouse. Carried to the department. And the memory card MC is handy terminal by the truck driver.
It is set to 58, so that the data can be read.

Reference numerals 59a and 59b shown in FIG. 3 denote bucket loading and pallet loading terminals, respectively, which are installed near the bucket and pallet loading positions (see FIG. 2). These terminals 59a and 59b are used to perform various operations in a hand input mode described later. In addition, the terminals 59a and 59b display various information necessary for warehousing on the CRT display.

Next, 60 is a centralized controller that controls each part of the warehouse 1, and controls the crane device of the three-dimensional automatic warehouse 1a and the loading / unloading device of the horizontal rotary automatic warehouse 1b. Further, the centralized controller 60 controls running / stopping of the storage lanes 5 and 11, and the bar code labels BL are provided by the bar code readers 63 and 64 arranged on the storage lanes 5 and 11, respectively.
It is designed to read the barcode of. This reading is performed as follows. When the bucket B or the pallet is placed on the storage lanes 5 and 11, the centralized controller 60 drives the storage lanes 5 and 11 to drive the bucket B.
(Or pallet) is transported. And bucket B
When the (or pallet) reaches a predetermined position, the bar code readers 63 and 64 scan the bar code label BL to read the bar code. Here, the scanning areas of the bar code readers 63 and 64 are fixed, but by setting the position where the bar code label BL is attached and the direction in which the bucket B (or pallet) is put into the storage lane, it is possible to cause a hindrance. No reading is done.

B: Operation of Embodiment Next, the operation of this embodiment with the above-described configuration will be described.

Memory Card Mode First, the host computer 40 transfers the production plan, parts list and slip data to the host computer 42. As a result, the host computer 42 controls the slip issuing unit 44 to issue a slip 45 according to the slip data, and the issued slip 45 is sent to the parts manufacturer. Further, the host computer 42 stores the correspondence between the slip number and the part number in a predetermined storage area, and further transfers it to the sub-host 50.

On the other hand, in the parts maker, the bar code label BL is attached to the pallet or the bucket B at a predetermined position in advance. Then, according to the sent slip, the relevant parts are put into the bucket B. Next, using the handy terminal 48, the input processing of the slip number, the container number, and the number of pieces is performed for each bucket B, and after the input processing is completed, the memory card MC is removed from the handy terminal 48. After that, the bucket B is loaded on the truck and carried to the warehouse loading section. At this time, carry the memory card MC.

Then, at the time of loading into the warehouse, the truck driver inserts the memory card MC into the handy terminal 58. As a result, each data such as the slip flight number, the container number, and the number in the memory card MC is transferred from the handy terminal 58 to the sub host 50. The sub-host 50 checks whether the transferred slip number corresponds to the carry-in plan of the day. This is performed by searching the contents of the carry-in plan file 51, and if the carry-in plan is met, the warehousing permission state is entered. Further, since the carry-in plan file 51 stores the data in which the slip number and the part number are combined, if the slip number is transferred from the handy terminal 58, the part flight number corresponding to this can be known. Further, since the container number and the quantity data are transferred from the handy terminal 58, the sub-host 50 can know which container contains which part and how many parts.

Next, when the automated warehouse 1 enters the loading permission state, the truck driver sequentially loads the loaded buckets B into the loading lane 5. The loaded bucket B is conveyed to a predetermined position by the storage lane 5, and its barcode label BL is read by the barcode reader 63. The read barcode is sent to the sub host 50 via the central controller 60.
Transferred to. As a result, the sub-host 50 can know the container number of the loaded bucket B. Further, the sub-host 50 searches the data in the inventory master 54 for an empty storage section of the three-dimensional automatic warehouse 1a, and supplies the position information to the centralized controller 60. Accordingly, the centralized controller 60 controls the crane device of the three-dimensional automatic warehouse 1a to store the bucket B in the empty storage section. Then, since the sub-host 50 recognizes which part and how many parts are in the bucket B, the sub-host 50 adds the position information of the storage section to create inventory data, and the inventory data is stored in the inventory master file 54. Write in. As a result, the inventory master file 54 stores the position information, the container number, the part number, and the quantity data of the newly stored bucket B as a set. Further, the sub-host 50 extracts the part number and the number data corresponding to the part number from the inventory master file 54, and writes them as a set in the inventory status file 55.

In the above-described loading process, the truck driver can load the bucket B in a fixed order. This is because no matter what order the buckets B are thrown in, the container number of the bucket B is identified by reading the barcode label BL, and the container number is checked by comparing this with the data stored in advance. This is because it is possible to know the relationship between the part number and the number data. And all buckets B
When the loading is completed, the truck driver pushes a predetermined switch to notify the sub host 50 that the warehousing process is completed. When the sub-host 50 receives the notification of completion, the sub-host 50 determines whether or not the number of stored parts is as instructed by the slip. If the determination result is negative, it means that the bucket B has been forgotten to be loaded or unloaded, so a predetermined alarm is issued to alert the truck driver. This alarm is displayed and printed out by the handy terminal 58. In the case of forgetting to load, etc., the display and printing of "non-stocked bucket" are made.

Other error messages in the handy terminal 58 include the following, for example.

If the slip number does not exist in the import plan file 51, "no plan", if the bar code readers 63 and 64 cannot read the bar code reader correctly, "bar code reader read error", large bucket If it is too large, "Bucket size error" is displayed and if the bucket weight is too heavy, "Overweight" is displayed and printed. It should be noted that if the processing is performed normally, "normal" is displayed.

Hand input mode The above operation is the operation of the memory card mode in which the memory card MC is used to automatically perform the warehousing process. In this embodiment, a hand input mode and a neutral mode are additionally provided. What is the hand input mode? Memory card MC
Is a mode in which input processing is performed by a predetermined manual operation without using the, and the neutral mode is a mode switching mode. That is, switching between the memory card mode and the hand input mode is always performed through the neutral mode. To end the memory card mode and the hand input mode, it is necessary to press a predetermined switch, and when the switch is pressed and the power is turned on, the mode is switched to the neutral mode.

The operation of the hand input mode will be described below.
In this hand input mode, the operation differs depending on whether there is a slip or not.

i: When there is a slip Even in this mode, the slip issuing process for the parts manufacturer is the same as that in the memory card mode, and only the operation at the time of warehousing is different.

First, the truck driver turns on a predetermined key of the terminal 59a (or 59b) provided in the warehouse carry-in section. As a result, the hand input mode is set. The above-mentioned memory card mode is switched when it is inserted into the handy terminal 58.

Next, the truck driver scans the barcode attached to the slip 45 with the scanner 58a. As a result,
The slip number is transferred to the sub-host 50, and the sub-host 50 refers to the carry-in plan file 51 to check whether the slip number has a carry-in plan. If the result is "NO", the error message "no plan" is displayed on the handy terminal 58 and is printed out. On the other hand, if the slip number matches the carry-in plan, it will be in a warehousing state
The sub-host computer 50 causes the terminal 59a (or 59b) to list-display the data in the carry-in plan file 51. Next, the truck driver loads the bucket B into the storage lane 5. As a result, it is conveyed to the bucket B by the storage lane 5 and stopped at the position of the barcode reader 63. The bar code reader 63 reads the bar code of the bucket B and transfers the container number to the sub host computer 50. Then, the truck driver moves the cursor on the screen of the terminal 59a to a position where the slip number of the slip brought is displayed. When the execution key or the like of the terminal 59a is pressed in this state, the sub-host computer 50 recognizes that the part corresponding to the slip number is stored. Next, the truck driver inputs the number of stored buckets B stopped at the position of the barcode reader 63 from the keyboard of the terminal 59a. As a result, the sub host computer 50
The part number, the number, and the container number corresponding to the slip number can be recognized, and the bucket B is allowed to be stored and stored in the empty storage section.

The truck driver performs the above-described processing for all the carried buckets, and thus the warehousing processing ends.

ii: When there is no voucher Goods receipt when there is no voucher occurs, for example, when it is urgent to store a part. In such a case, first, data indicating the part number and the number of the part is transferred from the host computer 40 to the sub host computer 50 via the host computer 42, and this data is written in the carry-in plan file 51. The reason for writing in the carry-in plan file 51 in advance is that, in this embodiment, the parts that are not registered in the carry-in plan file 51 are not allowed to be stored.

In the warehousing process in this case, first, the truck driver presses a predetermined key of the terminal device 59a (or 59b). As a result, the sub computer 50 reads the data in the storage plan file 51 and displays the list of storage plans on the terminal 59a (or 59b). Next, the bucket B is loaded into the storage lane 5. As a result, the bucket B is transported to the position of the barcode reader 63 by the storage lane 5. Then, the container number is read by the barcode reader 63 and transferred to the sub host computer 50. Then, the truck driver refers to the screen of the terminal 59a to find the part number of the part to be stored, moves the cursor in the same manner as described above, and presses the execute key or the like. In addition, the bar code reader 63
The number of buckets B stored at the position
Input from a keyboard. As a result, the sub-host computer 50 can confirm the correspondence relationship between the part number, the container number and the number as in the memory card mode. Then, as in the case described above, the bucket B is stored in the empty storage portion. At this time, the sub-host computer 50, the position information indicating the stored position,
The part number, container number, and quantity are written as a set of data in the inventory master 54. However, since a receipt without a slip is an abnormal receipt, an identification flag is set in the above set of data and stored.

In the above-described embodiment, the hierarchy is formed in the order of the host computer 40, the host computer 42, and the sub-host computer 50, and the same data is held in each hierarchy. For example, the same data as the parts table file 41 is stored in the component parts file 53, and the same data as the production plan in the host computer 40 is stored in the production plan file 43 and the assembly plan file 52. By duplicating the data in this way, even if a layer goes down, the other layers can operate independently to some extent. Further, in the down layer, manual work is required, but in the above embodiment, there is an advantage that other layers can supply information supporting the manual work.

c: Modification of Examples The component numbers and container numbers used in the above-described examples may be configured to include not only numerical values but also letters and symbols, and may be configured to include only letters and symbols. In short,
Any code can be used as long as it can identify the component and the container.

Further, although the above-mentioned embodiment is an example of a production line for automobile parts, in the present invention, the goods to be carried into the warehouse are not limited to the parts, and other arbitrary goods can be managed.

Further, when the articles are always handled in a single number or a predetermined number, it is possible to omit the instruction or input regarding the number.

[Advantages of the Invention] As described above, according to the present invention, there is no need to input a part number or the like at the time of warehousing, and the process of selecting from those in the warehousing plan is performed, so there are few errors and accurate warehousing is possible. Can manage. Further, since the relationships among the parts, slips, and containers are automatically recognized, various advantages can be obtained in slip management, inventory management, and the like.

Further, according to the invention described in claim 4, it is possible to store even when there is no slip, which is particularly preferable in an emergency.

Further, according to the invention described in claims 3 and 6, the slip number, the container number and the like are printed by the bar code, and these are read by the bar code reader, so that there is an advantage that the operability is remarkably improved. .
