Description

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to product drawing software and a processability determination system.

In general, when requesting the creation of a cabinet, the drawing creation software installed in the terminal is used to create the drawing of the cabinet. Further, as understood from FIGS. 13 and 14, the cabinet requires various holes such as mounting holes 101, opening holes 102, and passage holes 103 according to specifications. When ordering a product with special holes in the cabinet, a system such as that disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 2002-200002 is used to specify the position of the hole and place the order. In this case, only the processing company can determine whether processing is possible. This is because information for determining whether or not each cabinet can be processed is stored in the cabinet database held by the processing company.

By the way, in the conventional technology, it is necessary that the conditions for being connected to the Internet are in place when the determination is desired. This means that when it is desired to make a decision, it may become impossible to make a decision due to an external factor, which is not preferable. In addition, a person (user) who intends to order a cabinet using the hole processing judgment, after creating a drawing that incorporates the specifications with the drawing creation software installed on the terminal, separately selects the hole processing position on the Internet. Since it is necessary to create a specified drawing, the burden on the user was heavy after it was determined that processing was not possible. It should be noted that the reason why drawings created by users could not be diverted to the machining judgment system is that the drawings have been freely created in the format desired by the users. Since it is difficult to adapt any drawing to the above system, there has been a task of redrawing a drawing that can be adapted to the above system.

The inventor of this case tried to solve the problem by earnestly studying this point. An object of the present invention is to make it possible to determine whether processing is possible on software installed in a terminal.

In order to solve the above problems, a product drawing software that can draw by specifying the hole processing position and / or equipment position on the installed terminal, and the terminal in which the product drawing software is installed , The drawing import function and product drawing software used when acquiring the product drawing data including the processing judgment condition layer used from the outside using the Internet or a recording medium to the terminal on which the product drawing software is installed are installed. An input function used when adding hole machining positions and/or equipment positions to a product display drawing displayed on a terminal in which product drawing software is installed by reading product drawing data acquired by the terminal. Product drawing software for realizing a determination function used when a terminal in which the product drawing software is installed determines whether or not a hole machining position and/or equipment position added by the function can be arranged.

In addition, the product drawing data acquired by the terminal in which this product drawing software is installed has a machining judgment condition layer that can specify the machining judgment area and a shape layer that can specify the shape of the product. preferably.

In addition, by using the input function to input a hole shape input layer with hole shape data, the hole shape can be added to the product display drawing displayed on the terminal in which the product drawing software is installed . An input layer configuration is preferable.

In addition, the determination function is a position where the hole drawn in the hole shape input layer is included in the outer shape of the product read from the shape layer and is not included in the processing determination area read from the processing determination condition layer It is preferable to adopt a configuration in which it is determined that processing is possible when it is arranged at the position.

According to the present invention, it is possible to determine whether or not processing can be performed on the software installed in the terminal.

Modes for carrying out the invention are shown below. The product drawing software of the present embodiment is installed on the terminal 2 so that a drawing can be performed by designating the hole processing position and/or the equipment position. This product drawing software has a drawing importing function 21 that is used when externally obtaining product drawing data 51 including data used for processing determination into the terminal 2 . It also has an input function 22 that is used to add hole processing positions and/or equipment positions to the product display drawing displayed on the terminal 2 by reading the product drawing data acquired by the terminal 2. . Furthermore, it has a judgment function 23 used when the terminal 2 judges whether or not the hole machining position and/or the equipment position added by the input function 22 can be arranged. Therefore, it is possible to determine whether or not processing is possible on the software installed in the terminal 2 . Since the drawings drawn in this way can be used for determination as they are, it is not necessary to separately draw a drawing for determining specifications and a drawing for determination, and the user's labor can be saved. Note that this embodiment relates to drawing software for the cabinet 10 that houses electrical and electronic equipment, and will be described with the cabinet drawing data 51 as the product drawing data and the cabinet display drawing as the product drawing data.

A terminal 2 installed with cabinet drawing software capable of designating a drilling position and/or a device position on a drawing and drawing an outer shape of a cabinet is used by a user who desires a cabinet 10. is. As can be seen from FIG. 1, this terminal 2 can acquire the cabinet drawing data 51 stored in the drawing storage location 91 . The cabinet drawing data 51 includes data used for processing determination. More specifically, the cabinet drawing data 51 in the embodiment includes a machining judgment condition layer 52 capable of specifying the machining judgment area 11, and the data included in the machining judgment condition layer 52 is used for machining judgment. be done. It should be noted that there is a portion of the cabinet 10 that is difficult to drill, and a processing determination region 11 is used to determine whether or not this portion is difficult to drill.

The cabinet drawing data 51 is stored in the drawing storage location 91 before being moved to the terminal 2 . When the terminal 2 acquires the cabinet drawing data 51, it may be obtained from the drawing storage location 91 using the Internet, or a recording medium such as a DVD or USB, which is the drawing storage location 91, may be directly sent to the terminal 2. It may be obtained by connecting. Cabinet drawing data 51 can be obtained smoothly by using drawing import function 21 available on terminal 2 in which cabinet drawing software is installed. The cabinet drawing data 51 can be used when drawing the cabinet 10 incorporating the specifications on the user side.

In the embodiment, the cabinet drawing data 51 includes a machining determination condition layer 52 capable of specifying the machining determination area 11 and a shape layer 53 capable of specifying the shape of the cabinet 10 . Since the information is divided into a plurality of layers in this manner, it is easy to determine whether the line is the outer shape line or the line indicating the boundary of the area where drilling is difficult when judging the cabinet 10 . In addition, the machining judgment condition layer 52 is set for each drawing, and the judging function 23 is on the software, so even if a cabinet 10 with a different shape from the conventional one is newly added to the lineup, the shape of the cabinet 10 can be specified. If the data including the shape layer 53 and the machining determination condition layer 52 are updated, determination can be made according to the determination conditions of the software, so there is no need to update the software each time.

Cabinet drawing data 51 of the embodiment includes data such as side plates, door 31, ceiling plate 34, bottom plate, back plate 35 of cabinet 10, and accessories to be attached inside. However, these data are configured as being distributed to different layers. For example, the left side panel 33, the right side panel 32, the ceiling panel 34, and the rear panel 35 are assigned different layer numbers. By selecting the layer number, the layer displayed on the display function 24 of the terminal 2 is selected. can do. There are various kinds of accessories, but for example, a device mounting plate 36 fixed to the rear plate 35 and the side plates, a protective cover for protecting a charging part when a device is mounted inside, a wiring rail , a wiring cover attached to the outside of the cabinet 10, a base, and the like.

Cabinet drawing data 51 of the embodiment can be read by cabinet drawing software and displayed on the display function 24 of the terminal 2 . In the example shown in FIG. 2, the display function 24 includes a left panel 33, a door 31, a right panel 32, a rear panel 35, a ceiling panel 34, and a device mounting panel . Moreover, even inside these outer shapes, there are portions where hole machining is not possible, and these portions are defined as machining determination regions 11 . The processing determination area 11 is indicated by oblique lines in FIG.

The user of the terminal 2 uses the input function 22 to enter the hole shape 81 formed by specifying the hole machining position and/or the equipment position into the hole shape input layer 71 , thereby creating the hole in the cabinet drawing data 51 . Machining positions can be added. If the data to be added on the terminal 2 side is input to the hole shape input layer 71 in this way, it becomes easy to distinguish it from other data in the processing determination condition layer 52 and the shape layer 53 . In addition, it becomes easier to manage data in units of layers.

In FIG. 2, the door 31 has a circular hole shape 81 formed by designating the hole processing position and/or the equipment position, and the left side plate 33 and the right side plate 32 have a rectangular hole shape 81 with the hole processing position and/or equipment position designated. Alternatively, it shows a hole shape 81 formed by designating the device position. This was entered by the input function 22 . Thus, the data obtained as a result of adding data on the terminal 2 side to the externally obtained cabinet drawing data 51 can be stored as additional cabinet drawing data. Here, how to configure an image displayed on the display function 24 of the terminal 2 will be described.

First, the drawing of the door 31 shown in FIG. 2 will be described as an example. As can be understood from FIGS. 2 and 3, the door 31 is configured by combining the shape layer 53 and the machining determination condition layer 52 to determine the outer shape of the door 31 and the area where the door 31 cannot be drilled. , and the drilling position can be displayed on the display function 24 together. Here, the layer number of the shape layer 53 is 100, and the layer number of the processing determination condition layer 52 is 200. As shown in FIG. The data of the 100th layer and the 200th layer are included in the cabinet drawing data 51 .

The user of the terminal 2 can use the input function 22 to input the data hole shape input layer 71 of the hole shape 81 to add the hole machining position to the cabinet display drawing. In the example shown in FIG. 3, the hole shape input layer 71 has a layer number of 300. As shown in FIG. Thus, in the embodiment, the shape layer 53, the hole shape input layer 71, and the machining determination condition layer 52 are separate layers. When it is displayed on the screen, it is arranged as if it overlaps one drawing, but since it is divided on the data, the displayed line is either the line indicating the outline or the line indicating the prohibited area or an input drawing.

Further, in the embodiment, layers are provided for the left side plate 33 and the right side plate 32 as well as the door 31 . As can be seen from FIG. 4, in the left side plate 33, the shape layer 53 has the layer number 101, and the processing determination condition layer 52 has the layer number 201. As shown in FIG. The data of the 101st layer and the 201st layer are included in the cabinet drawing data 51 . The user of the terminal 2 adds the hole machining positions to the cabinet display diagram by using the input function 22 to input the hole shape input layer 71 with the data of the hole shape 81, as shown in FIG. In the example, the hole shape input layer 71 has the layer number 301 .

As shown in FIG. 5, in the right side plate 32, the shape layer 53 has the layer number 102, and the processing determination condition layer 52 has the layer number 202. As shown in FIG. The data of the 102nd layer and the 202nd layer are included in the cabinet drawing data 51 . The user of the terminal 2 uses the input function 22 to attach the hole shape input layer 71 having the data of the hole shape 81 to the cabinet drawing data 51. In the example shown in FIG. has a layer number of 302. The cabinet drawing data 51 includes a shape layer 53 and a machining judgment condition layer 52 for each part of the back plate 35, ceiling plate 34, equipment mounting plate 36, and the like. , the input function 22 can be used to attach the hole shape input layer 71 to the cabinet drawing data 51 .

The hole information specified by the hole shape input layer 71 attached to the cabinet drawing data 51 is used by the determination function 23 to determine whether processing is possible. At this time, the determination function 23 compares the hole information specified by the hole shape input layer 71 with the data used for processing determination in the cabinet drawing data 51 . In the example of the door 31, by comparing the 300th layer with the 100th layer and the 200th layer, it is possible to confirm whether or not the position specified by the 300th hole can be drilled. The determination function 23 determines that processing is possible when the holes drawn on the hole shape input layer 71 are arranged at positions as shown in FIG. Also, when the hole drawn on the hole shape input layer 71 is arranged at the position as shown in FIG. 7, it is determined that the hole cannot be machined.

The determination function 23 of the embodiment determines that the hole drawn on the hole shape input layer 71 is a position included in the outer shape of the cabinet 10 read from the shape layer 53 and read from the machining determination condition layer 52. If it is arranged at a position that is not included in the processing determination area 11, it is determined that processing is possible. Therefore, the terminal 2 can determine whether or not it can be processed appropriately.

By the way, the data added by the input function 22 need not be displayed on the display function 24 so as to represent the shape of the hole. For example, the display function 24 may display the device shape. For example, in the example shown in FIG. 8, square device symbols 82 are used to represent LEDs. The equipment symbol 82 is what is displayed on the display facility 24 . Data of the hole shape 81 required for machining is linked to the equipment symbol 82 . In the example shown in FIG. 8, a circular hole shape 81 is linked, and while the device symbol 82 is displayed on the display function 24, the circular hole shape 81 can be used for determination. In the embodiment, the device symbol 82 and the hole shape 81 are also formed in different layers, and whether the device symbol 82 or the hole shape 81 is displayed can be arbitrarily selected by layer selection. can be selected.

In the example shown in FIG. 9, a diagram imitating a rectangular breaker is the device symbol 82 of the breaker. Data of hole shapes 81 of four small holes required for machining are linked to the device symbol 82 imitating the breaker. Judgment of the embodiment is performed by confirming whether or not the small hole is arranged at a position where processing is possible.

In this way, if the device symbol 82 linked to the hole shape 81 can be displayed, it is possible to easily imagine a state in which a device such as a breaker is installed when creating a drawing. As a result of the determination, it is preferable that the machine symbol 82 linked to the unprocessable hole can be distinguished from the machine symbol 82 linked to the machineable hole. In the embodiment, the equipment symbol 82 linked to the unprocessable hole is displayed in a different color from the equipment symbol 82 linked to the machinable hole.

In the embodiment, the intersection of cross-shaped lines shown in FIG. 10 is a position that serves as an index for arranging the hole or the equipment symbol 82. ) can be defined relative to the cabinet view displayed on the terminal 2 to identify the location of the hole or equipment symbol 82 . Note that in the embodiment, these positions can also be determined by specifying coordinate values.

Here, an example of use of the terminal 2 in which cabinet drawing software is installed will be described. As can be understood from FIG. 11, cabinet drawing software installed in a PC (Personal Computer), which is the terminal 2, is started up (S100). Next, if necessary, the cabinet drawing data 51 is loaded (S200). The drawing data 51 may be loaded by loading the cabinet drawing data 51 stored in a recording medium such as a USB or DVD into the terminal 2, or by obtaining the drawing data 51 via the Internet.

The fetched cabinet drawing data 51 is read using the drawing developing function 25 of the cabinet drawing software, and the cabinet drawing is displayed on the display function 24 of the terminal 2 (S300). The user of the terminal 2 adds drilling positions and/or equipment positions to the cabinet display diagram so that the desired cabinet 10 can exhibit the necessary functions (S400). Based on the added hole machining position and/or equipment position information, the judgment function 23 is used to judge whether or not they are arranged at a machineable position (S500).

Here, an example of determination using the determination function 23 will be described in detail. As can be understood from FIG. 12, in the embodiment, first, the judgment function 23 starts the propriety judgment (S510). After that, it is checked whether the positions requiring hole processing overlap (S520). If they do not overlap, it is checked whether the hole shape 81 is included in the outer shape (S530). If the hole shape 81 is included in the outer shape, it is checked whether the hole shape 81 is included in the machining determination region 11, which prohibits the hole shape 81 (S540). If not, it is possible to drill without changing the drilling position and/or equipment position entered by the input function 22 . Thus, in the present invention, the terminal 2 side can determine whether or not hole drilling is possible under the conditions added on the terminal 2 side.

In this embodiment, when it is determined that hole processing is possible under the added conditions on the terminal 2 side, the information is sent to the cabinet manufacturing company or the like so that an estimate can be requested. In addition, the cabinet manufacturer can prepare production drawings and the like based on this information.

In the present invention, based on the cabinet drawing data 51 acquired by the user in the terminal 2, the drawing is created by specifying the drilling position and/or the equipment position. There is no need to create 10 drawings, and the user's labor can be saved. In addition, since the drawing drawn in this way can be used as it is for judgment, it is not necessary to separately draw a drawing for determining specifications and a drawing for judgment, which saves the user's trouble. .

Although the present invention has been described above using the embodiments as examples, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various aspects are possible.
