Description

  The present invention relates to a gas container that is required to be safely managed by law, and associates the owner of the gas container with an actual manager in the distribution of the gas container to efficiently operate the gas container management information. The present invention relates to a gas container management server, a gas container management system, and a gas container management program.

  Conventionally, gas that is generally distributed in the market, such as propane gas, acetylene gas, oxygen gas, and nitrogen gas, is first filled in a gas container at a filling factory, and then transported to a retailer under the umbrella by a collector. Then, it is delivered from each of these dealers to the final customers such as homes and offices. In addition, empty gas containers collected by each store or delivery company are collected by a filling factory or a collection and delivery vehicle of each dealer and transported to the filling factory. Then, the gas is refilled and sent to each dealer or the final customer again.

  In such gas trading, gas containers are used repeatedly. However, in accordance with laws and regulations, when distributing new gas containers to the market, the container symbol / container number unique to the gas container and the owner's registration number are stamped ( (Hereinafter referred to as “owner registration number”), and safety management represented by the inspection history of the gas container is required as the gas container starts to be distributed.

  In addition, as described above, according to the High Pressure Gas Safety Law, the “gas container” is not allowed to be filled with gas in a container that is not engraved with an owner registration number consisting of a 4-digit code from AXXX to ZXXX.

  That is, the gas container circulates between the filling factory, the store, and the customer. The gas containers circulating in this way are obliged to register the owner, manage the history of safety management and confirm the current location of the gas container from the aspect of safety management.

  In addition, it is important from the standpoint of legal compliance to always know the exact location of gas containers at dealers (including filling factories, the same shall apply hereinafter) as well as gas at dealers and customers. The container can be prevented from staying for a long time. This leads to an improvement in the circulation rate of the gas containers, and there is an advantage that it is not necessary to stock extra gas containers in preparation for a shortage of gas containers.

  In addition, when storing high-pressure gas, if it exceeds a certain quantity stipulated by laws and regulations, the gas storage permission category will change, so it will be subject to new storage permission or notification. It is an important management item for those who handle high-pressure gas.

  In addition, a method for managing such information by pasting a means capable of identifying and displaying such as a barcode label or RFID to a gas container and inputting various data read by a reader into a computer is also performed.

  Therefore, in the store, etc., the management of data such as the shipping date, the collection date, and the store number is collectively managed by the computer every time the product is shipped or collected based on the owner registration number inherent to the gas container. A sales management system has been proposed.

JP 2003-58743 A

  However, although the container symbol and the container number are uniquely attached to the gas container and are not changed, the owner of the container is often changed for convenience of transaction. This creates a difference between the owner registration number and the actual owner. In the conventional technology, the management information of the gas container is stored in association with the sales information, but is managed only by the owner registration number inherent to the gas container. In the management system, it was difficult to manage according to the substance.

  In addition to the case where the owner is changed due to the change of the owner's name due to the purchase and sale of the gas container as described above, the gas container shall be loaned to the user of the gas container. Management may be complicated, such as when the container owner and the container manager are different. In particular, it was difficult for an operator in each process such as collecting a gas container or filling a gas to grasp this fact.

  In addition, regarding safety management such as gas container management items such as pressure-resistant inspection and absolute disposal due to the expiration of the container's usage period, if the container owner is different from the administrator, the person in charge such as the dealer will judge individually. Collecting and organizing information by handwriting and inputting it to the main computer of the sales management system have been carried out, causing errors and omissions due to operator judgment, and input errors. When the owner of the gas container was changed or when the administrator was set separately, it was not clear who should be notified of the inspection and disposal, which caused the efficiency to decrease.

  In addition, due to past revisions of laws and regulations, there is a difference in the expiration date of the gas container and the period until pressure-resistant inspection, and the expiration date and the period until the next inspection date will change depending on the start date of gas container market distribution. Since the filled gas can be used even after the pressure-proof inspection date, it is often recovered as an empty container after the inspection deadline, and the inspection is often performed. It was to induce mistakes.

  As mentioned above, although these controls are stipulated by laws and regulations and are important items including safety management, each dealer has its own management according to the convenience of each dealer, etc. The unified management of was not able to be done.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and the object of the present invention is the relationship between the user of the gas container management server, the gas container owner, and the actual manager of the gas container according to the present invention. It is to be managed by the gas container management server as an administrator attribute together with the gas container management information specified by the container symbol / container number, and to display the attribute. Further, in this specification, “gas container state information” refers to information necessary for management represented by the management state in each distribution process, that is, storage location, use state, inspection schedule, and the like.

In order to solve the above problems, a gas container management server according to claim 1 of the present invention includes a container symbol / container number for managing a gas container, an owner registration number for registering the owner of the gas container, In the gas container management server for managing the management state of the gas container, the management number indicating the manager who manages the actual gas container is stored in association with the display unit, the owner registration number, and the A control unit that generates an administrator attribute in which a user of the gas container management server, a gas container owner, and an actual administrator are associated from an administrator number; and the container symbol / container number, the administrator attribute, and the container and a management information storage unit that associates and stores the management status information, the operator of the gas container management server inputs the container symbol, container number, the administrator attribute and the display unit, it It has a display control unit for displaying the container management status information according to it said.

Further, the gas container management system according to claim 7 of the present invention includes a container symbol / container number for managing the gas container, an owner registration number for registering the owner of the gas container, and an actual gas container. management and administrator number indicating the administrator to perform the pre-association with storing, in a gas container management system that manages the administrative state of the gas container, said display means and said owner registration number and the administrator ID Control means for generating a manager attribute in which a user of the gas container management system is associated with the gas container owner and the actual manager, the container symbol / container number, the manager attribute, and the container management state information ; a management information storage means for storing association with a display control means for displaying the gas container management information on said display means together with the administrator attribute, and a communication control means for communicating to the outside, the operator If you enter a serial container symbol, container number, the display management status information of the gas container according to the administrator attribute on said display means, said control means, the actual administrator with reference to the container management status information identified, the communication control means is characterized Rukoto, was displayed on the display means via the network to the specified actual administrator.

A gas container management program according to claim 8 of the present invention includes a computer storing a container symbol and a container number for managing a gas container, an owner registration number for registering the owner of the gas container, and an actual gas. A function of storing in advance an administrator number indicating an administrator who manages the container, and an administrator attribute is generated from the owner registration number and the administrator number, and the container symbol / container number and the management user attribute and associates the container management status information is stored, when the operator enters the container symbol, container number, the ability to identify the actual administrator with reference to the previous Kiyo device management status information, said management party and Table Shimesuru function container management status information according to the attributes, to determine the actual administrator with reference to the container management state information, by the communication control means for communicating to the outside, said the specified actual business network A function of displaying through, characterized in that for the execution.

  According to this invention, since the user of the gas container management server can display the administrator attribute of each gas container from the viewpoint of the user of the gas container management server, the owner of the gas container is different from the administrator. Even in this case, the actual manager is clarified, and the response according to the distribution status of the container can be implemented without leaving the judgment of the worker in charge at each site.

  In addition, the relationship between owners and managers in gas container management information such as inspections necessary for safety management and container disposal timing will be clarified, and it will be possible to communicate to actual container managers without omission.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the following embodiments, “product” is gas, and “gas container” is used for gas circulation. Therefore, the “gas container” is filled with gas and moves to the location of the gas user as the gas is sold. After the gas is used by the user, the “gas container” is recovered and transported to the filling plant. The used “gas container” is refilled with gas by the refilling factory, and the “gas container” filled with gas is moved again to the user's location by the sales office. In addition, there is a transaction in which a container itself that is not filled with gas is sold as a product. Here, a case where the gas is traded as a product will be described.

  In addition, “Management of gas containers” includes the location and movement history of containers, and management regulations are stipulated by laws and regulations in order to protect public safety from the potential danger due to the physical force of pressure. . Furthermore, "filling" is treated as the same concept as gas sales. In the following embodiments, management of gas containers accompanying gas sales will be mainly described.

  FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a configuration of the gas container management server 10.

  The gas container management server 10 according to the embodiment includes a so-called computer, and includes a control unit 102 configured by a CPU, a storage unit 104 configured by a RAM, an HDD, an SSD, and the like, an input unit 106, a display control unit 108, and communication control. Part 110 at least. The display control unit 108 is connected to a monitor such as a CRT or LCD, and the input unit 106 is connected to a keyboard, a mouse, or the like.

  The gas container management server 10 stores an operating system, a control application that operates on the operating system, and application software in the storage unit 104, and is based on input / output of data and an operation of an operator performed through the input unit 106. Then, the operating system, control application, and application software are read from the storage unit 104 and the control unit 102 executes instructions.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the gas container management information 50 (shown in FIG. 4) input to the gas container management server 10 is processed in response to a command by the application software and is provided in the storage unit 104. It is written in the database 104a. Further, when the gas container management information 50 stored in advance in the database 104a is called up by the user, a predetermined process is performed by the control application and displayed on a monitor connected via the display control unit 108. Is done.

  The gas container management server 10 is connected to an identification information recording medium output device 30 such as a printer or an RFID tag reader / writer via the communication control unit 110. This is based on the input gas container management information 50, and identification information recording media 32 and 32 'represented by bar code sheets and RFID tags with gas container identification numbers for identifying individual gas containers (see FIG. 5). Used to create FIG. 5 is a view showing a gas container. On the outer surface, a re-inspection date 602, a container owner number 604, a container symbol / container number 606, and a filling gas name 608 are engraved, and identification information is recorded. A barcode which is the medium 32 is affixed. In place of this bar code, another medium capable of recording similar identification information such as RFID which is the identification information recording medium 32 ′ may be used. The identification information recording medium reading unit 202 is configured by a so-called bar code reader that reads a bar code. This may be configured by various readers such as an RFID reader in accordance with the identification information recording medium.

  A plurality of client terminals 20 may be connected via the communication control unit 110 of the gas container management server 10. The input of the gas container management information 50 and the confirmation of the stored gas container management information 50 can be performed via the client terminal 20.

(Data structure: Administrator attribute)
Here, the feature of the present invention, that is, the manager attribute in the gas container management information 50 will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 2 is a gas container management information input screen 51 in the application software installed in the gas container management server, and FIG. 3 is a process flow of the application software. When the gas container management information input screen 51 is called, each master in FIG. 4 is temporarily read into the storage unit 104 (S101).

  First, the container symbol / container number 606 illustrated in FIG. 5 is input to the container symbol input unit 512 and the container number input unit 514 of the gas container management information input screen 51 of FIG. 2 (S102). Each gas container is registered in the gas container management server 10 as a container-specific number by a combination of the container symbol and the container number. Based on the combination of numbers, the management information of each gas container is stored in association with the gas container management information 50, and is identified and managed as an individual gas container. The container number is registered as a 1-6 digit number according to the law, but if the most significant digit starts with 0, the transport operator, filling factory worker, etc. will omit the “0” entry. There are things to do. Even in such a case, in order to realize constant registration and search, adjustment is made so that it is displayed according to the stamp as another number 516, and registration is performed in association (S103).

  Next, the owner registration number is input to the owner code input unit 518 (S104). The owner registration number is required to be registered with the relevant organization by law, and is one of the administrator information in the container management information, and clarifies the location of responsibility for the safety management of the gas container. Is. A unique number is assigned to the handler and identified. By inputting the owner registration number to the owner code input unit 518, the owner corresponding to each container is stored in association with the database 104a via the application software (S105). At this time, when the owner code input unit 518 is selected for input, the control unit 102 refers to the container owner master 530, displays the registered container owner candidates in the input unit in a pop-up display, and selects the candidates. Request. If the owner is not registered, enter a new one.

  Next, the real owner is input to the real owner code input unit 520 (S106). The substantial owner of each container is stored in association with the database 104a via the application software (S107). At this time, when the real owner code input unit 520 is selected for input, the control unit 102 refers to the container manager master 532, displays the registered container owner candidates in the input unit in a pop-up display, and selects candidates. Request. If the owner is not registered in the container manager master 532, a new entry is made.

  The real owner is one piece of manager information indicating the actual owner in distribution. In this gas container, a person different from the owner identified by the owner registration number of the gas container is in the same position as the owner (or in the same position as the owner) in connection with the purchase and sale of the gas container, lease agreement, etc. ) May occur. In such a case, re-engraving can be omitted based on a convenient procedure in accordance with laws and regulations, and therefore it cannot be identified by the owner registration number of the gas container. Therefore, in the present invention for identification for distribution management, identification is performed using a real owner.

  Next, the actual manager is input to the container manager code input unit 522 (S108). The actual manager in each container is stored in association with the database 104a via the application software (S109). At this time, when the container manager code input unit 522 is selected for input, the control unit 102 refers to the container manager master 532, displays the registered container owner candidates in the input unit in a pop-up display, and selects candidates. Request. If the owner is not registered, enter a new one.

  The container manager code identifies the manager in the actual gas container distribution, and is one piece of manager information. It is used to identify the person who actually manages the gas container when the person who is actually managed is different from the person identified by the owner registration number in a special management situation such as outsourcing or exclusive lending.

  The gas container owner code, the actual owner code, and the container manager code are stored in advance in the container master 538 by inputting them into the gas container management information input screen 51 together with the container symbol and the container number.

  The control unit 102 executes processing by inputting the gas container owner code, the real owner code, and the container manager code, generates an administrator attribute (S110), and enters the ownership classification 524 of the gas container management information input screen 51. Administrator attributes are displayed and stored in the gas container management information 50. The manager attribute is stored in the storage unit 104 of the gas container management server by retrieving and associating the relationship between the user of the gas container management server and the gas container from the container master 538 and the container manager master 532 (S111). This control corresponds to the administrator attribute generation unit of the present invention. At least the container manager master 532 is composed of “in-house” indicating the user of the gas container management server 10 and “user” who is a customer who uses the gas container and the gas as its contents. In addition, administrator attributes can be set in accordance with the position of the “manufacturer” representing a filling factory or a gas trading company (gas wholesaler, etc.) or the user of another gas container management server 10.

(Composition of gas container management information)
Next, various masters constituting the gas container management information 50 will be described. The gas container management information 50 includes various masters shown in FIG. 4 and is stored in the storage unit 104 of the gas container management server. This control corresponds to the management information storage unit of the present invention.

  The container master 538 stores information such as a container symbol, a container number, a weight of a gas container, and a filling amount given at the time of registration for each individual container. The container classification master 540 stores the type of container and the inspection time for the container. The usage master 542 stores the usage of the gas in the gas container. The container inspection years master 544 stores an inspection cycle and a period that have been changed due to revision of laws and regulations. The inspection period and period are changed every time the law is revised, and the applicable law differs depending on the date of manufacture of the container. The container inspection year master 544 associates the container master 538 with the container classification master 540 and stores an appropriate inspection cycle and period for each container.

  The container owner master 530 stores container owner information. The owner of the container is a person registered in the owner registration number, and the name, address, and the like of the person are stored. Further, even when the owner registered by the owner registration number is different from the owner registered depending on the transaction form, the information on the owner is stored in the container manager master 532, and in association with the container master 538, Identified.

  The container manager master 532 stores information on the actual manager of the container. The manager of the container is associated with the container master 538 and is identified for each container because the owner (including the above-mentioned substantial owner) and the manager are often different depending on the form of the transaction.

  The filling station master 534 stores information related to gas filling stations. The information stored in the filling station master 534 is the name and address of the filling station. The delivery destination master 536 stores information on customers who use gas containers filled with gas. The information stored in the delivery destination master 536 includes the name and address of the customer who uses the gas container.

  Each master is stored as a component of the gas container management information 50 and is associated with each other. These may be newly registered together with the new registration of the gas container, or the existing information may be associated with the registration information of the new gas container.

  Next, the identification information recording medium 32 will be described. The identification information recording medium 32 is created by the identification information recording medium output device 30 by the application software based on the recorded container symbol / container number 606 via the control application and the communication control unit. The identification information recording medium output device 30 is constituted by a printer capable of printing a barcode, an RFID reader / writer capable of reading / writing an RFID tag, etc. Not limited to.

  The identification information recording medium 32 is affixed to the gas container to identify individual gas containers. The gas container management server 10 corresponding to the identification information recording medium 32 or the identification information recording medium reading unit 202 connected to the client terminal 20 reads the container symbol / container number 606 described in the identification information recording medium 32. By inputting the information into the management server 10 or the client terminal 20, the individual gas container management information 50 can be confirmed. This corresponds to the container management state notification unit in the present invention.

  In addition, when the container symbol / container number described in the identification information recording medium 32 is input to the gas container management server 10 or the client terminal 20, the highest digit of the container number is entered as “0” at the discretion of the operator. It is assumed that is omitted.

  For example, when searching for a gas container registered with the container symbol “ABS” and the container number “04001” and the container number, the operator displays the container symbol “ABS” on the gas container management information input screen 51. ”, When the container number is entered as“ 4001 ”.

  In such a case, the container master stores the container number “4001” and automatically interpolates and stores “04001” in another number 516 to search the gas container management information 50 for confirmation. When executed, it is possible to prevent the input container number from being recognized as being different.

  Contrary to the above case, when the container number “04001” is input when the gas container management information 50 is input, another number 516 is automatically interpolated and stored as “4001”. In either case, management is possible with the input container symbol and container number, and no search omission occurs.

  The user of the gas container management server 10 confirms the gas container management information 50 corresponding to each gas container by inputting the container symbol and the container number on the gas container management information input screen 51 or reading the identification information recording medium 32. it can. At this time, the management relationship with the corresponding gas container can be confirmed from his / her standpoint by the manager attribute. Management events such as disposal and inspection associated by each master inform the appropriate manager of measures corresponding to the distribution status of the gas container. If the user of the gas container management server 10 is an administrator, the management event information is displayed on the gas container management server 10 or the client terminal 20, and if another administrator is set, communication control is performed by application software. Information is transmitted to an appropriate manager by notification means such as e-mail through the section.

  The gas container management event information is stored by the container master 538 and includes at least a manufacturing date, a processing date, a previous inspection date, a filling deadline, and an inspection year. The period or cycle of the inspection is stored by the container classification master 540 and the container inspection year master 544 and correlated with each other. This corresponds to the management event processing unit in the present invention. The gas container management event information is not limited to the information given here, and is appropriately selected depending on the management state.

  As described above, according to the invention described in this embodiment, the individual gas container is identified by using the container symbol and the container number stamped by the registration of the gas container, and the gas container management information is configured. The owner registration number, the real owner code, and the container administrator code are stored in association with the administrator information to be stored, and the administrator attribute is added to the administrator that has been changed for convenience. Can manage the relationship with the actual manager.

  Further, the management information of each gas container can be converted and displayed based on the manager attribute, and an appropriate manager can be notified in advance. Therefore, operations requiring management confirmation such as disposal and inspection of gas containers can be performed without operator judgment.

(Operation of gas container management)
Next, the operation of the gas container management server described so far will be described with reference to FIGS. Gas containers can be broadly divided into three categories: management at sales offices, management at filling stations, and management at customer locations. First, the management at the sales office will be described with reference to FIG.

(S201: Shipment order confirmation)
Confirm the order information in cooperation with the gas sales system. The container symbol / container number 606 of the gas container to be shipped is read by the identification information reading unit. The control unit 102 collates the read container symbol / container number 606 with the order information, and issues a read instruction of the gas container management information 50 to the database 104a.

(S202: Confirmation of gas container management information)

(S203: Confirm date of disposal)
The container disposal date stored in S202 is compared with the identification information reading work date of the container symbol / container number 606, and it is confirmed whether it is before the disposal due date set and managed by the container master 538. As a result of the confirmation, if it is before the due date for disposal, the process proceeds to S204. If it is after the disposal date, the process proceeds to S207.

(S204: Shipment destination confirmation)
The shipping destination information stored in the order information and the administrator attribute added to the gas container management information 50 are confirmed and collated. By confirming the manager attribute, the retailer who is the user of the gas container management system (hereinafter referred to as the manager attribute: own company) and the ownership / management relationship of the gas container or the shipping destination and the owner of the gas container, management The management status of the gas container such as the contractor or the lease contractor and the shipping destination are matched. If the shipping destination matches, the process proceeds to S205, and if not, the process proceeds to S210, a partner error is displayed, and the process proceeds to S211.

(S205: Contents confirmation)
It is determined whether the content filled in the container matches the order information from the history of the gas container management information. If the contents match the order information, the contents are shipped to the shipping destination based on the order information (S206). If not, the process proceeds to S211 and the shipment is stopped.

  If it is determined in S203 that the disposal date is after, it is confirmed whether the administrator attribute is “manager attribute: own company” (S207). In the case of “administrator attribute: own company”, the discarding process (S208) is performed. When the administrator attribute indicates a gas manufacturer or filling factory (hereinafter referred to as “administrator attribute: manufacturer”), customer (hereinafter referred to as “administrator attribute: user”), and other administrator attributes set according to the contract status. (S209). The notification destination confirms the gas container management information 50 by the control unit 102, identifies the administrator, and is notified by the communication control unit 110 by communication means such as e-mail and FAX.

  If it is determined in S204 or S205 that the process proceeds to S211, a process for stopping shipment is performed, the worker is notified of the shipment stop, and the process returns to S201. Confirm the shipping order again and show the operator a display requesting information update.

  Second, management in the case of user storage will be described with reference to FIG. In the case of user storage, there are cases where the user is using or the use of contents (gas) is finished, the container is collected by the operator, and the customer performs inventory management using the client terminal.

(S301: Confirmation of gas container management information)
The control unit 102 collates the gas container management information 50 corresponding to the container symbol / container number 606, and temporarily stores the container disposal date and the container inspection date from the gas container management information 50 in the storage unit 104.

(S302: Confirm date of disposal)
The container disposal date and container symbol / container number 606 stored in S301 are read by the identification information recording medium reading unit 202, and compared with the work date, and whether the disposal date set and managed by the container master 538 is before the disposal date. Check. As a result of the confirmation, if it is before the due date for disposal, the process proceeds to S303. If it is after the disposal date, the process proceeds to S305.

(S303: Confirmation of scheduled inspection date)
The container inspection date and container symbol / container number 606 stored in S301 are read by the identification information recording medium reading unit 202, compared with the work date, and before the due date of the next inspection set and managed by the container inspection year master 544. Check if it exists. As a result of the confirmation, if it is before the next inspection date, the process proceeds to S304 and the use is continued. If it is after the inspection date, the process proceeds to S308.

  In S305, if it is determined in S302 that the date of disposal is after, it is confirmed whether the administrator attribute is “manager attribute: own company”. In the case of “administrator attribute: own company”, a discarding process (S306) is performed. Notification is made in accordance with the set administrator attribute according to the manager attribute “manager attribute: manufacturer” indicating the gas manufacturer or filling factory, “manager attribute: user” indicating the customer, and other contract statuses. The notification destination confirms the gas container management information 50 by the control unit, identifies the administrator, and is notified by the communication control unit by communication means such as E-mail, FAX (S307).

(S309: Inspection)
If the next inspection of the container confirmed in S303 is after the due date, the administrator attribute is confirmed, the owner / manager is notified (S308), and the inspection is performed (S309).
