BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to an on-site patrol system that collects and manages daily (periodic) patrol management information such as factories and warehouses using a handy terminal with a barcode.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Manufacturing equipment (or equipment that contributes to production) has a major impact on manufacturing and production if it stops due to an unexpected failure. For this reason, there is a case where a system that automatically collects information on manufacturing equipment and automatically manufactures information is always introduced. However, the scope of automation is limited, and there is a lot of information that must be relied on the human senses. For this reason, daily patrol is indispensable, and the place which contributes to manufacture of the business is big.
[0003]
The main purpose of this patrol work is preventive maintenance to prevent production equipment failures in advance. For this reason, information management for prediction by history management of patrol contents becomes important. However, when looking at realistic patrol work methods, carry paper and pencil, go around the site, type the recorded information from the office terminal, or store it in the ledger without digitizing it. The situation is such that preventive maintenance can be performed. In such a case, work after patrol does not occur and history management for preventive maintenance is not performed, so that the daily patrol work is stopped, and sudden accidents are not prevented.
[0004]
Also, according to recent trends, various products that carry mobile devices and perform patrols are being sold, and the above trend is improving, but there is no mechanism for reliably collecting necessary information on site. Is the current situation.
[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Problems when using conventional paper and pencil patrol operations or mobile terminals are: (1) reduction of human errors such as entry (registration) errors, (2) prevention of patrol spot omission, and (3) site Return to the office after patrol and inefficiency of driving field information into the terminal, (4) Inadequate history management of patrol information, (5) Introducing an automatic monitoring and control system requires a large amount of money, Inability to complete introduction and unsuitable for site characteristics (requires reliance on the five senses).
[0006]
The present invention has been made in view of the above, can prevent human error, can reliably collect patrol information and create a database, can prevent a necessary patrol portion from being lost, and can be made into a database. Work efficiency can be improved, history management of patrol information can be easily performed, a maintenance plan that makes use of patrol information can be made, and abnormal indication values for inspection equipment can be determined instantly. An object of the present invention is to provide an on-site patrol system capable of promptly responding to it and having a low introduction cost.
[0007]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, the invention according to claim 1 is a patrol server for managing information on site patrol, and a handy with barcode that can be carried on site patrol and can send and receive information to and from the patrol server. In the on-site patrol system equipped with a terminal, the patrol server has a scheduling function for registering, deleting, and correcting on-site inspection items in the on-site patrol as master information. From this master information, necessary inspection items, inspection order, inspection Create a plurality of patrol pattern information including the date and time and the specified value information of the inspection equipment, select and send the plurality of patrol pattern information to the handy terminal with bar code, and after patrol by the handy terminal with bar code When we receive the collected data and save it in the database In addition, the handy terminal with barcode receives the patrol pattern information from the patrol server, stores it in memory, and reads the barcode attached in the vicinity of the inspection equipment on site.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3.
[0012]
First, the equipment configuration of the on-site patrol system according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. The on-site patrol system includes a patrol server 10 that manages on-site patrol information, and a handy terminal 20 with a barcode that is carried by the on-site patrol. The patrol server 10 and the barcode-equipped handy terminal 20 are connected by a dedicated cable 11 or wirelessly so that information can be exchanged.
[0013]
The patrol server 10 has a scheduling function for registering, deleting, and correcting on-site inspection items in on-site patrol as master information, and includes necessary inspection items, inspection order, inspection date and time, and specified value information of inspection equipment from the master information. Create multiple types of patrol pattern information. When performing on-site patrol, the patrol pattern information selected from the plurality of patterns is transmitted to the handy terminal 20 with the barcode. This is because the field patrol does not carry out all the registered field inspection items at the same time. Then, the collected data after the patrol by the handy terminal 20 with the barcode is received and stored in the database. The patrol server 10 has a data backup function and a form function. In the data backup function, the entire patrol server 10 is regularly backed up and old data is transferred to other media. The form function creates a form and automatically prints it out. The forms include patrol reports (printing information for each patrol), monthly reports, weekly reports, annual reports, and the like. This form function also corrects (adds / deletes / changes) the print items of the form, searches the data items registered in the database, and registers the form in any combination.
[0014]
The handy terminal with barcode 20 stores the patrol pattern information received from the patrol server 10 and performs an operation corresponding to the content. That is, the barcode attached near the inspection device on site is read and collated with the received patrol pattern information, and the indication value of the inspection device is stored in an appropriate memory area and collated with the specified value. When the indicated value is outside the specified value, an alarm is displayed. When an alarm is displayed, take appropriate measures and then enter and store a normal value. Further, the handy terminal 20 with the bar code checks the inspection items scheduled for patrol and the inspection execution items. The specification (applicable device) of the handy terminal 20 with a barcode is not specified, but may be any as long as the barcode is built in or externally attached and can be processed to some extent.
[0015]
Further, as shown in FIG. 1, the patrol server 10 is also connected to the in-factory LAN 12 so that patrol information can be browsed by a request from the client 30.
[0016]
For barcodes installed on the site, commercially available barcode printing software or the like is used, but the registered contents of the patrol server 10 are exported as files such as CSV and text so that barcodes can be created easily. Yes.
[0017]
Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. The numbers in the following circles correspond to the circles in FIG. The patrol pattern information (touring information) selected from the patrol server 10 in the office is transmitted to the handy terminal 20 with barcode ((1)). The handy terminal with barcode 20 at the site stores the received patrol pattern information and performs an operation corresponding to the content. FIG. 3 is an example of the content, and is an expanded example of a handy terminal screen with a barcode. The handy terminal 20 with the bar code first enters “patrol (patrol) start”. The following operations are performed in the patrol. When the barcode attached to the device is read, the input screen of the corresponding device is displayed from the patrol information ((2)). The instrument indication value is input by numeric keypad or touch selection ((3)). The input data is collated with the specified value of the patrol information, and when it is outside the specified value, an alarm is displayed. In this case, contact with the superior (mobile phone TEL etc.) is carried out, and a normal value is input after appropriate measures are taken for the device ((4)). At any time during the patrol, check the non-input data in the non-input data list display so that there is no omission. Then, while confirming that there is no uninput data, the office is notified of “patrol end” (5). Thereafter, the patrol collection data is transmitted from the bar-code handy terminal 20 to the patrol server 10 in the office ((6)). The patrol server 10 stores and accumulates the received patrol collection data in a database. Necessary data is stored in the database after integration (7). In addition, the patrol server 10 performs a form process ((8)). If necessary, the patrol item is changed, the specified value is changed, the collected data is corrected, and the patrol item is scheduled (9).
[0018]
As described above, according to the present embodiment, since the collected data of the barcode-equipped handy terminal 20 matches the data to be databased with the barcode, it is possible to reduce artificial mistakes. The check function of the location where the patrol is performed and the location where the operation is performed can prevent the patrol location from coming off. During the patrol, the previous instruction value is also displayed, the previous and current instruction values are compared, and a check with the specified value is also performed at the same time, so that an abnormality can be determined instantaneously and a response can be made quickly. The input work for creating a database during patrol is completed, and the work efficiency can be improved. History management of patrol information can be easily and efficiently performed, and a maintenance plan can be made using the patrol information.
