Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of an electronic schedule board according to the present invention. 2 is a selection means, 2 is a control means, 3 is a storage means, 4 is a display means, 5 is a clock means, and 6 is an input means.

The selection means 1 is for selecting an arbitrary user from among a plurality of specific users. The control means 2 controls the storage means 3, the display means 4, and the clock means 5, and performs the schedule function of the present invention.

The control means 2 can use a CPU or the like. The storage means 3 is for storing users and schedules, and L
SI memory etc. can be used. The storage means 3 is divided into areas for storing schedules for each user, and schedules are stored in each area. As another method, the user's code and the contents of the schedule may be linked and stored. The selection means 1, the control means 2, the storage means 3, the display means 4, and the timekeeping means 5 may be a personal computer provided with input/output devices such as a keyboard and a display.

The display means 4 inputs a predetermined schedule table and the written schedule when inputting a schedule, and displays date information and the schedule on the scheduled date in the schedule. As the display device 4, a display the size of a small blackboard can be used, but a personal computer display may also be used as described above.

The selection means 11 display means 4 and input means 6 can be configured as a single device by using a tablet and a light pen, for example. In that case, you can display the schedule table on the tablet and enter schedule information with a light pen.
Users can be selected. Further, it is possible to display date information from the clock means on the scheduled date of the schedule, the stored schedule corresponding to the date information, and the user thereof on the tablet. Display information from the control means 2 is sent to the tablet by signals such as RGB.

Figure 2 shows an example of a tablet. The example shown in the figure is a case where the calendar function and message function can be performed in addition to the schedule function. A selection area 6 for the calendar function, a selection area 7 for the message function, a selection area 8 for the schedule function, and an input/output area 9 for schedules, etc. (corresponding to the display means 4) are preset and arranged on the screen. Each function can be selected by selecting with a light pen. The message function is provided as desired, and although not specifically described, it can be used with a common light pen. Note that the regions 10111 and 12.13 will be explained later.

The function selection operation of this embodiment will be explained with reference to the flowchart of FIG. Normally the calendar mode is 20,
Message function selection area 7, schedule function selection area 8
By selecting with a light pen, message mode 50 and schedule mode 30 can be set, respectively.

After each mode is selected, by selecting those selected areas again with a light pen, the mode is commanded to end, and the message mode ends mode 60, the schedule mode ends mode 40, and the calendar mode 20 returns. Message mode 50, schedule mode 3
0, if there is no input for a certain period of time, for example 1 minute, the message mode end mode 60 and the schedule mode end mode 40 are set, respectively, and the mode returns to the calendar mode 20.

Next, details of the schedule mode will be explained with reference to the screen display example shown in FIG. 4 and the flowchart shown in FIG. 5.

Here, a case of a family of four is shown, and for example, there are five types of schedule users: father, mother, child 1, child 2, and the entire family.

Usually, area 6 is inverted (for example, from white display to red display)
However, when the selection area 8 of the schedule function is selected with the light pen 14 as shown in FIG. 4A, the scheduler mode is entered. At this time, as shown in FIG. 4B, the selection area 8 is reversed to indicate that the schedule mode has been entered. At the same time, in area 10, each user's selected area is displayed in white, for example, and in area 11, "
"Send schedule" is displayed in white, and the date and day of the week for one week's calendar are displayed in area 9 (schedule table display 31).Send schedule is used when entering schedules before and after the displayed week. will be described in detail later.

Next, when an arbitrary user is selected, the schedule input mode 32 (FIG. 5) is entered, and a schedule can be input. For example, if you want to input your mother's schedule,
When the mother part in area 1° is selected with the light pen 14 as shown in FIG. 4B, the area is reversed to indicate that the user is the mother, and the "pen" in area 13 is Displays schedule input mode 32, that is, a mode in which schedules can be input. At this time, the area 9 within the schedule table frame becomes an input area, and for example, as shown in FIG. 4B, "Dinner Party" can be input and displayed in the column for October 2, 1990 in the schedule table using the light pen 14. If you want to delete the schedule, in area 12
If you select “Eraser”, schedule deletion mode 3 will be activated.
3, and the display in the area near the tip of the light pen 14 can be erased. If you want to switch to the schedule input mode 32 again, you can select "pen" in the area 13.

If you want to enter the next week's schedule, "
If you select the top or bottom of ``Send Schedule'', a schedule table for any previous or next week will be displayed, and you can enter your schedule there.

The schedule may be forwarded only backwards, so that, for example, five weeks' worth of schedules can be forwarded, and after the fifth week, the schedule can be returned to the original state.

Next, as shown in FIG. 4C, the schedule function selection area 8 is selected again, or if left unattended and no input is made for a predetermined period of time, the schedule end mode 40 is entered and the schedule mode is ended.

In the schedule end mode 4o, if there is no schedule input, the schedule mode is ended and the mode returns to the calendar mode 20. If a schedule has been input, the selected registrant, schedule, and month and day are stored in the storage means 3 (41), and the schedule mode 30 is ended (FIG. 4D) to return to the calendar mode. In this embodiment, the schedule is input after selecting the user, but it goes without saying that the user may be selected after inputting the schedule.

Next, the display of the schedule on the relevant scheduled date will be explained. As shown in the fourth diagram, in the calendar mode, date information and, if a schedule is stored on that day, user information and the schedule are displayed. That is, the date and day of the week are displayed based on the date information from the clock means 5, and if a schedule is stored in the storage means 3 at this time, user information and the schedule are displayed.

Note that areas 15 in FIGS. 4A and 4D are for displaying a specific schedule. For example, ``Dad's birthday''
Predetermined items such as the following can be displayed on the scheduled date by storing them in a specific area of the storage means 3 in advance.

In this way, by simply selecting multiple registrants and inputting their schedules, schedule management for multiple people can be performed with simple operations, and can be realized with a simple configuration.

〔Effect of the invention〕

According to the present invention, schedule management of a plurality of schedule registrants can be performed with a simple operation and can be realized with a simple configuration.
