CONSTITUTION:A floppy disk is attached to a floppy disk drive 4 and initialized by a microprocessor 1, and an initial scope, indicating the selection of a workpiece on the basis of display data in a random access memory 3, is displayed on a cathode-ray tube display 6 by a display control part 5. Here, data of the desired workpiece are inputted by a keyboard 2. With this, information on this workpiece is inputted. Next, a machining form selecting scope is displayed. In succession, type of machining forms is inputted by the keyboard 2. If so, the microprocessor 1 refers to a deletion table in the random access memory 3, selecting the display data corresponding to the inputted workpiece and the machining form, and these data are rewritten to the random access memory 3 from the floppy disk and stored in advance. Successively, machining points in relation to the workpiece and the machining forms being inputted at the time of machining are selected and displayed.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a machining procedure display device for displaying the procedure of various machining tasks such as cutting to an operator.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In cutting and the like, it is necessary to select a tool and a working method to be used according to conditions such as a material of a workpiece and a desired shape. Conventionally, in this type of machining industry, a work manual that describes machining procedures such as tool types and working methods corresponding to the above conditions has been prepared and used at the work site.

[0003]

By the way, in cutting and the like, there are many kinds of workpieces to be processed and kinds of processing forms such as a target shape, and work procedures corresponding to combinations of these kinds. The amount of information in is enormous. Therefore, when the worker starts work,
There has been a problem that it is necessary to find a location for describing a machining procedure that meets a desired condition from a work manual having an extremely large number of pages, and it takes a long time to start the work.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a machining procedure display device for displaying to a worker a machining procedure suitable for the type of workpiece and the type of machining mode. To aim.

[0005]

The present invention provides an input means for inputting a desired type of work piece and a desired type of work form, and a working procedure corresponding to each combination of the work piece and the work form. It is characterized by comprising storage means for storing display data to be described, and display means for selecting and displaying the display data corresponding to the combination of the workpiece and the processing form input by the input means.

[0006]

According to the above invention, the machining procedure corresponding to the desired workpiece and machining pattern is displayed. Therefore, the worker can start the processing work without delay.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a functional configuration of a machining procedure display device according to an embodiment of the present invention. The machining procedure display device according to this embodiment displays the machining procedure relating to cutting. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 is a microprocessor for controlling each part of the processing procedure display device. Two
Is a keyboard operated by an operator. Also,
Reference numeral 3 is a RAM (random access memory) used for temporary storage of display data and other control data.
4 is an FDD (floppy disk drive),
Data read / write control for D is performed. A display control unit 5 is under the control of the microprocessor 1.
CR the display data in the display data storage area in RAM3
Display on T (cathode ray tube) display 6. The FD corresponds to each combination of the material of the work piece and the form of work to be performed on the work piece, and the tools to be used for those
The display data describing the machining procedure including the usage conditions of the tool and the display data corresponding to other various menu screens are stored. The selection of display data is performed based on the decision table shown in FIG. This decision table is for associating the combination of the material and the processing form of the workpiece, which is input by the operator operating the keyboard 2, with the display data corresponding to the processing procedure. Each column of is display data. This decision table is also F
It is stored in D.

Hereinafter, the operation of the processing point display device will be described. When the FD is mounted on the FDD 4 and the processing procedure display device is powered on, the microprocessor 1 performs initialization processing. Then, by this initialization processing, the display data corresponding to the decision table in the FD and the initial screen is read and written in the RAM 3. Then, the display control unit 5 performs display control based on the display data in the RAM 3, and an initial screen for instructing the operator to select a workpiece (in this case, a group of work materials) as shown in FIG. Is displayed on the CRT display 6. The operator operates the cursor key on the keyboard 2 to move the cursor display to the display position of the desired work material group, and presses the return key. As a result, the microprocessor 1 fetches information indicating the group of work materials designated by the operator. Next, the display data corresponding to the processing mode selection screen is read from the FD by the microprocessor 1 and written in the RAM 3. As a result, the machining pattern selection screen shown in FIG. 4 is displayed on the CRT display 6. The operator operates the cursor key on the keyboard 2 to move the cursor to the display position of the desired machining form, and presses the return key. As a result, the information indicating the type of machining form designated by the operator is captured by the microprocessor 1. The microprocessor 1 refers to the decision table in the RAM 3, selects the display data corresponding to the material and processing form of the workpiece specified by the operator, reads the display data from the FD, and writes it in the RAM 3. In this way, the workpiece and the processing form are narrowed down, and the processing procedure corresponding to the operator's input is displayed on the CRT display 6 as shown in FIG. 5, for example. At this stage, the work piece and the work form have not been decided, and the upper half portion of the display screen of FIG. 5 is a display requesting the operator to specify the work piece and the work form in more detail. ing. By moving the cursor, the operator designates a work material and a detailed machining form such as a cut amount. In this way, the final workpiece and machining form are determined, the display data is selected according to the decision table of FIG. 2, the display data is transferred from the FD to the RAM 3, and the lower half of the display screen of FIG. 5 is displayed. A processing procedure corresponding to the workpiece and the processing form is displayed in the area.

[0009]

As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to correspond to the input means for inputting the desired type of the workpiece and the desired type of machining, and each combination of the workpiece and the machining mode. Since the storage means for storing the display data describing the processing procedure described above and the display means for selecting and displaying the display data corresponding to the combination of the workpiece and the processing form input by the input means are provided, The worker can start the processing work without delay, and the working efficiency is improved.
