Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial field of application] The present invention relates to an action schedule display device which is installed in an office or the like so that employees can instantly confirm each other's actions. is there.

[Prior Art] In office work, it is often necessary for employees to keep in close contact with other employees in order to carry out their work smoothly and reliably. In such offices, when each employee leaves their seat, whether they are in other places in the company or go to outside sales so that they can be contacted at any time even if they are absent,
It is necessary to notify other employees in advance whether they will go to a specific place outside the company that they can contact, or whether they will be going home. However, maintaining such a contact status at all times is a major obstacle to work, and there are cases in which the contact becomes meaningless because the employee who informed the user accidentally forgets or the employee leaves the seat. Therefore, conventionally, it is generally practiced to use a wall board to display the action schedule of each employee in an objective form.

This type of board has a plurality of name display fields and a plurality of action display fields that are classified and listed according to action patterns, arranged vertically and horizontally, and the intersections of both display fields are appropriately marked with magic or magnets. This makes it possible to see who is in which place.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] By the way, such a wall board is often attached to a relatively low position on the wall surface because it is desirable that the employee can easily perform marking. For this reason,
For example, there is a problem that the wall board is difficult to see when an employee sits at a desk. That is, when an employee sits at a desk, the view to the wall board mounted at such a low position is determined by the employee who is filling in the board, such as the people in front of the board, or the head of the employee who is sitting in the front seat. It is easily blocked. Therefore, in such a situation, it becomes difficult to immediately confirm the action schedules of other employees. For example, if there is a need for confirmation during a telephone response, and the board cannot be seen directly at that time, it is necessary to interrupt the response and go to the confirmation, or indirectly confirm through another employee. It becomes a big obstacle to the work.

On the other hand, a wall board is mounted so that it can slide up and down, and the board is lifted up after marking, but this kind of thing is complicated and the board descends down. In the meantime, the same inconvenience as described above occurs.

Although these inconveniences do not seem to be a big problem at first glance, they occur more frequently than employees are aware of in actual office work, and they are a major obstacle to smooth work. Is.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object thereof is to realize an action schedule display device that secures both ease of marking and ease of confirmation at the same time.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The present invention adopts the following configuration in order to achieve such an object.

That is, the action schedule display device of the present invention comprises a plurality of name display columns and a plurality of action display columns that are classified and listed for each action pattern, arranged vertically and horizontally, and emits light at each intersection of both display columns. It has a display unit that can be turned on individually by providing an element, a name input means for specifying a name and an action input means for specifying one or more action patterns for the specified name. And a drive means for turning on the corresponding light emitting element of the display unit in accordance with a combination of a name and an action pattern input from the operation unit, the display unit being more than the operation unit. It is installed at a high wall position. Then, a destination display field in which a number can be displayed by input from the operation unit is provided corresponding to each name display field, and the number displayed in this destination display field and the destination specifically described are It is characterized in that a destination collation table for collating is provided at a position where it can be directly compared with the destination display field.

[Operation] With such a configuration, when one or a plurality of action patterns are input for a specific employee or the like from the operation unit, the input action is displayed in the name display field where the name of the employee or the like is displayed on the display unit. The light emitting element in the action display column corresponding to the pattern is turned on to display the action schedule of the employee or the like.

Then, while the conventional one was designed to directly mark the intersection of the name display field and the action display field by manual operation, this one uses an electrical method using a light emitting element,
Since the operation unit related to the input and the display unit related to the output can be separately configured and arranged, it is possible to arrange the display unit at a wall surface position higher than that of the operation unit.

With such an arrangement, the operation section is provided at a position where a user such as an employee can easily input, and the display section is arranged at a high position on the wall surface where the viewer is not obstructed from view. By doing so, the ease of marking and the ease of confirmation can be secured at the same time.

Moreover, since the destination display fields are provided in association with the respective name display fields, it is possible to check the contact information of each person in more detail if necessary after checking the mode of action. Moreover, since the destination is not displayed directly in the destination display column but is displayed as a number, it is possible to prevent the width or the like of the display unit from unduly increasing. In addition, since the numbers and specific destinations can be collated using the destination collation table, detailed destinations can be displayed without inviting complicated information such as kanji to be input from the operation unit. It becomes possible to keep it.

Is a voltage abnormality detection circuit for protecting the system.

FIGS. 3A to 3C are flowcharts showing the control program described above. The operation of the present apparatus will be described below along with the operation procedure along the flow chart.

First, turn on the power of this action schedule display device in step S1.
If set to, internal initialization is performed in step S2. That is, a business trip memory circuit driven by a built-in battery
Except for the stored contents of 45, all other settings are in the same state as when cleared. Next, in step S3, the stored contents of the business trip storage circuit 45 are displayed through the LEDs 26 and 27,
Go to step S4.

In this step S4, either the "name" input switch SW ₀ or the set key SK is waiting for input. When you operate the set key SK, you can jump to step S16 and display the month and day display field 2
Flicker LED 29 ₁ for month display out of 8 to perform step S17
Move to and wait for input from numeric keypad TK. Where the month is 01
Enter 2 digits in the range of up to 12. As a result, step S18
Then, the LED 29 ₁ is turned on, and in the next step S19, the date display LED 29 ₂ is caused to flicker. Then, the process proceeds to step S20, and waits again for input from the numeric keypad TK. Day 01 here
Enter 2 digits within the range of 31. Thus, the LED 29 ₂ is turned on in step S21, the flow returns to the previous input wait state A.

Next, when the name input key SW ₀ is operated from this state, the process moves to step S5 and waits for the next input from the ten keys TK. Here, enter the designated name number of the employee to be set in the range of 01 to 15. When the input is made, in the next step S6, each LED 2 in the action display column 22 for that employee
3 with _{1-23 4} is flicker simultaneously, LEDs 26 and 27 is turned off, proceeds to the next step S7. And switch
Wait for input of either SW _{0 to} SW ₄ or the set key SK. If, for example, “in-house”, “going out”, or “business trip” is selected as the action schedule for the employee today from the flicker action patterns and the switches SW ₁ to SW ₃ are operated, step 8 is performed. The corresponding LEDs 23 ₁ to 23 ₃ light up,
Others are turned off, and the process proceeds to step S9.

In this step S9, the LED 26 in the destination display field 24 is flickered, and then the process proceeds to step S10 to wait for the input of any of the ten keys TK, the clear key CK, and the name input switch SW ₀ . If you input the two digits corresponding to the destination collation table 11 from the numeric keypad TK (in this case, the range of 01 to 20), step S11
At, the number is digitally displayed on the LED 26, and then the process moves to step 12 to flicker the LED 27 of the date / time display field 25. Then, the process proceeds to step 13 and waits for input of any one of ten keys TK, clear key CK, name input switch SW ₀ and set key SK. If you enter a 2-digit number from the numeric keypad TK,
In step S14, the number is digitally displayed on the LED 27, and finally the process proceeds to step S15. Here, the input key SK, the clear key CK, or the name input switch SW ₀ is awaited for input. Then, when the set key SK is operated, the information input up to that point for the employee is fixed, a series of setting work is completed here, and the state returns to the re-input state A.

Further, in the case of operating the vacation input switch SW ₄ in step S7, LED 23 ₄ is turned, then the set key SK in step S22, the clear key CK, the one waiting for input name input switch SW _1. Then, when the set key SK is operated, the setting work for the employee is completed and the state returns to the input state A.

The clear key CK in the input waiting state in steps S10, S13, S15, and S22 is operated to reset the employee, and is returned to the state C before the operation in step S6. In this case, LED 23 ₁ ~ 23 ₄ of the partners of the action display section 22 in the step S6 is again set from the state of flicker.

Further, the name input switch SW ₀ , which is in the input waiting state in steps S7, S10, S13, S15, and S22, is operated when it is desired to cancel the setting related to the specific designated name number. At this time, the display of the designated name number up to that point is restored and the input state B before step S5 is restored. Then, if the set key SK is operated in step S7, the setting made up to that point is canceled, and in step 28, the LED 23 ₁ to
23 ₄ goes out and the input state A is restored.

Further, the set key SK in the input waiting state in step S22 completes the setting there, and the first input state A
Operate when you want to return to.

The action schedule is completed by performing the above-mentioned operations for each designated name number. Then, when the board 1 is attached to a predetermined position on the wall surface so that the operation unit is located at a height position where it is easy for the employee to input, the display unit 2 that clearly indicates the main actions of the employee is displayed. , Will be installed at a high position on the wall surface. Therefore, as in the past, employees who are filling the board or filling in the board,
Or, the inconvenience that the view of the board is blocked by the employees sitting at the desk in the front disappears, and the board can be seen reliably even when sitting on the desk.
It is possible to check the action schedules of other employees at a glance at all times. As a result, this device can ensure both marking and confirmation at the same time. Also, when using magic or magnets as in the past, they sometimes disappeared or dropped out for some reason, but the setting contents of this device accidentally disappear unless the power is turned off. Since it does not exist, the advantage of excellent storage stability can be obtained.

Furthermore, the display unit 2 and the operation unit 3 are connected to the board 1 in this way.
If it is integrally provided on the wall surface and attached to the wall surface, each employee can easily handle it without needing an operator or the like, so that the operator does not have to be complicated every time the schedule is changed.

Although one embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the configuration of each part is not limited to that of the illustrated embodiment, and various modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
