Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an apparatus for creating tact-related information in a production line, and more particularly, it is capable of automatically creating tact-related information of a worker to be used for evaluating the skill of the worker. is there.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, for measuring tact in a production line, a pen recorder or a dedicated tact measuring device is attached to a line control device to obtain an average tact of the process, or a measurer has a stopwatch. I was taking measurements. Especially in the latter case, since it is difficult to collect the data of all the processes of the line and all the workers, it is general to collect the data on a regular basis by limiting the target number to a predetermined number.

[0003]

However, in such a conventional method, since only the average value, the maximum value, and the minimum value are output simply by measuring the operating time, the data is not sufficient, and therefore the accurate value is not obtained. Could not be evaluated. In other words, there is no information such as the type of production vehicle, specifications, and even differences in operators, and after all, looking at the measurement results, you can see that, for example, the tact is slow,
I didn't know what was causing it. In particular, it was not possible to understand the differences among workers, and differences due to differences in proficiency (these ultimately depend on individual abilities and experiences of workers). Moreover, especially in the case of measurement with a stopwatch, there was a large error due to the difference in the measurement standard. Above, in short,
In the conventional method, the operation time can be measured, but it cannot be used for the subsequent feedback (which part (especially worker) is improved by accurately evaluating the measurement result).

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and relates to a production line capable of automatically creating tact-related information of a worker to be used for evaluation of the skill of the worker. The object is to provide a tact-related information creation device.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a tact measuring means for measuring the working tact of a production facility and a worker, and worker information, vehicle type information and other various information necessary for statistical processing. Input means for inputting, a storage means for storing the measurement result of the tact measurement means and the input information by the input means, and statistically processing the storage information of the storage means to create various tact-related information about the worker. It is characterized in that it has an arithmetic means for processing and a display means for externally displaying the processing result of the statistical processing means.

[0006]

In the present invention thus constructed, the tact measuring means measures the work tact of the production facility and the worker, and the input means inputs the worker information, the vehicle type information and other various information necessary for the statistical processing. Then, these pieces of information are stored in the storage means. The arithmetic means statistically processes the stored information in the storage means to create and process various types of tact-related information regarding the worker. Then, the processing result is displayed outside by the display means, and is used for the evaluation of the skill of the worker.
