Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent the efficiency of cargo work from being reduced by displaying the shape of objective parts to a worker at the time of stock/shipping work or the like and making it possible to immediately specify the objective parts even when worker's parts knowledge of parts is less. CONSTITUTION:When a stock work instruction is inputted from an input part 4, a control part 3 transmits a work instruction and parts shape data from a MODEM 5 to the cargo working vehicle side and a control part 8 outputs and displays the received work instruction parts shape and extracted map information to/on a screen display part 10. The control part 3 transmits the work instruction, extracted stock position location number and the part shape data from the MODEM 5 to the cargo working vehicle side and the control part 8 outputs/displays the received work instruction, stock position location number, part shape and extracted map information to/on the display part 10. Since a worker can immediately specify objective parts even if worker's parts knowledge is less, the efficiency of cargo work can be prevented from being reduced.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to a parts management device for cargo handling operations by manned cargo handling vehicles.

[Prior Art] Traditionally, work involves memorizing the locations of loads, pallets, packets, parts, etc. in your head based on past cargo handling operations.
Parts handling work was carried out based on this memory, and although there were work instructions from the manager, the actual work was carried out at the discretion of the worker.

[Problem to be solved by the invention] Conventionally, cargo handling work has been carried out based on the worker's memory, so the amount of parts handled increases and it becomes impossible to remember all of them, or other workers or other workers may change the storage location due to convenience. If parts were moved without permission or if the worker in charge took a day off, it would be impossible to know where the parts were, which would negatively impact work efficiency.

Furthermore, if the worker is unfamiliar with the work area, even if he or she receives work instructions, he or she may not completely know where to place the parts, resulting in poor work efficiency.

Therefore, the present applicant has developed a system that uses communication means to give work instructions to a work vehicle and at the same time displays map information related to the location of parts to be worked on, and also to update and memorize the contents of the work performed each time work is completed. (Particularly, in order to improve work efficiency, we applied for a cargo handling work management device in Japanese Patent Application No. 01-248918. Even if we are instructed on the name of the part, it is difficult for workers with little knowledge about the part.
There may be cases where it is not clear which parts are to be received or taken out, which may reduce the efficiency of cargo handling operations.

The present invention was made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and by displaying the shape of the target part to the worker during work such as warehousing and unloading, even if the worker has little knowledge of parts, the target part can be immediately identified. It is an object of the present invention to provide a cargo handling work management device that can identify cargo handling operations and prevent a decline in cargo handling efficiency.
