Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a manufacturing industry, a processing industry,
It is concerned with the support of production planning and its plan adjustment in production management activities of the distribution industry, etc., and in particular, it aims to make the work easier and more efficient by computerizing the stand plates.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there has been known a method of visually expressing elements such as work in production activities on paper in a Gantt chart format. However, scheduling of production management information on paper not only requires a huge number of man-hours, but also reliability and diversion of past information retrieval,
It has many problems such as difficulty in distribution and demand for expertise. Therefore, against the background of remarkable technological advances in computer hardware and software in recent years, these plans have been semi-automated, and devices for displaying a Gantt chart on a display device such as a display have already been developed. There is.

Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 6-325043 discloses a first
A plurality of production facilities or work processes are set on the axis of, and a predetermined time scale such as hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly units is set on the second axis, and a predetermined period of each production facility or work process. There is disclosed a technique of displaying a Gantt chart showing jobs in a strip shape on a screen.

However, in the description disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 6-325043, there is no concept of a cell formed by the vertical axis and the horizontal axis when a table is created, so that individual work can be freely adjusted. It is something that cannot be done.

Further, Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 62-156758 aims at a practical dispatch system capable of assigning resources to a wide variety of jobs and setting an optimum job plan. Resource data of work is classified and stored in a corresponding table, the classified data is supplied to the allocation means for each work type, allocation is performed, the operating time is determined, and the work is separated. A technique of evaluating a result of a dispatch and outputting the dispatch data is disclosed.

In the technique disclosed in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 62-156758, resource data necessary for resource allocation and parameters serving as a reference for the allocation are input to the system in advance. Separately from this, a table for storing determination data necessary for allocation and results such as a Gantt chart is provided. Various elements of the target work place are decomposed into the minimum elements that constitute the work, and these become resources and are processed by the judgment data, and the result is displayed on the display device in the form of Gantt chart. The parameters that are the basis of the allocation are examined as to the existing work other than the work currently being processed, the priority order and the schedule period, and are accumulated as hourly data. Based on this information, equipment and workers will be assigned and the load balance and delay will be evaluated. When these are satisfied, the result is finalized and output in Gantt chart representation.

[0007]

In the conventional technique described above, resources are subdivided, a plan is created based on reference parameters on an hourly basis, and Gantt chart output and storage in a database are performed. Since the means for adjusting the work is computerized, the versatility of the applied work place and some of the expert knowledge of the planner are omitted, which enables efficient and unified planning and adjustment.

[0008] However, in the conventional technique, although some expertise is omitted as compared with the case where a planner manually carries out all the planning, a certain degree of system understanding and business knowledge are required for inputting parameters. It will be necessary, and it will not be possible for the workers themselves to make adjustments.

Further, in a normal production management plan, it is essential to make a more optimal plan by diverting past results and making a new plan, but in the conventional technique, the result is stored in a database. However, since they are stored in subdivided time series units, the series of relationships may become unclear.

Further, the idea is to manage the subdivided work, which is a resource for manufacturing work, in a fixed time unit, and there is little diversity in planning by factors other than time.

Further, since parameters are input in advance and processing is performed based on them, batch factors are high, and they are not suitable for real-time changes in the situation. In other words, the detailed plan may not be able to follow the changes.

Needless to say, a certain unified means produces a stable plan, but there are many aspects that cannot be adjusted with standard data, such as a difference in capacity or a decrease in capacity due to equipment attenuation in the actual field. is there. To adjust these well, it is impossible to do them without awareness of the workers in the field who fully understand them. In other words, it is necessary to incorporate the awareness of the workers in the field into the plan for the aspects that cannot be covered by the parameters, but the interface is insufficient in the conventional technology.

Further, in the conventional technique, the planning result is visually expressed by using the Gantt chart, but the visual expression power for the information before the planning is lacking.

The present invention has been made in order to solve the above problems. The screen of the display device is used as an electronic upright plate, and the electron upright plate is surrounded by cells (enclosed by a horizontal axis and a vertical axis). Area), data to be adjusted in various production activities is visually expressed as a card.
By freely operating this adjustment object, it is an object of the present invention to enable a person in charge of work on site to easily perform various plans and plan adjustments. It also aims to facilitate the transfer of data to and from other systems.

FIG. 3 is a view showing the structure of an evacuation card which erects on an electronic evacuation plate. As shown in the figure, the evacuation card 12 is a card-fixing type master card whose card position is fixed, and a card. It consists of an event card that is a card-moving type that can change the position of. In addition, the master card is targeted for data that is treated as a resource on the electronic stand, and does not have a behavioral goal, so there is no need to switch (move) cells between cells, and a fixed length that fits in one cell. It is a card and is defined as a card fixed type. However, by exchanging the fixed type master card, it is possible to update the attribute data of the master card without inputting it from an input device such as a keyboard. on the other hand,
The event card is a fixed-length card that fits into one cell and a variable-length card that occupies the area of multiple cells, with the action targets adjusted, with the data treated as elements on the electronic stand. , This is defined as a card transfer type. These upright cards 12 are determined by the property of the electronic upright plate 10, that is, the setting of axis items.

FIG. 4 is a vertical axis (Y axis) and a horizontal axis (X axis) of an electronic upright plate composed of master data which is a management item.
It shows the types of cards that can be used for. FIG. 4A shows an example of the electronic stand-off plate 10 having control items (elements) on both the vertical axis and the horizontal axis. Here, what is displayed as an upside-down is a fixed-length card in which the length of the card cannot be expanded or contracted, and the master data or the event data is displayed upside down as a card image. FIG. 4B shows an electronic stand plate having management items on the vertical axis and continuous items such as time series on the horizontal axis.

In each case, the card displayed in an inverted manner is a variable-length card whose length can be expanded or contracted in the continuous item axis direction, and event data is displayed as an event card in a card image.

The operator visually judges the load of the upset card 12 placed upright on the electronic upright plate 10, and the overloaded cell 1 is detected.
The event card is moved from 1 to the insufficiently loaded cell 11, that is, the exchange operation 13 is performed by dragging and dropping the mouse. By this operation, the contents of the replaced event card are corrected, and the load is recalculated / displayed at the same time. In the case of the event card having the data of the continuous items (time series etc.) described above, expanding and contracting the card also corresponds to the load adjustment. In this case, the data is also corrected.

Embodiment 1. 5 to 24 are views showing an embodiment of an electronic upright plate system according to the present invention. The first embodiment shows an electronic stand plate in work management for allocating work processes to equipment. FIG. 5 is an example of a screen displayed when “work management” is selected when the electronic dispatch system is started up. 5 is an event card dispatch / execution executed when “work management execution” is selected on the screen of FIG.
6 is a flowchart showing an operation showing a flow of processing until the control unit 2 inserts the event card on the electronic upright plate. FIG. 6 is an example of the electronic stand plate 10 displayed when the event card stand / control unit 2 is executed.

(1) Upright Display Hereinafter, the operation up to displaying on the electronic upright plate 10 will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 to 7. In FIG. 5, when “work management execution” is selected, the event card dispatch / control unit 2 starts processing. In order to display the matrix on the electronic stand plate 10, the management items such as resources are designated by the configuration of the vertical axis (Y axis) and the horizontal axis (X axis) of the electronic stand plate,
It is determined (step S50). Event data, which is the result data of the production activity, is read from a database (not shown) or from another system (step S5).
1). Create an event card based on the contents of the read event data. At this time, the main information of the event data (work content for the process) is displayed on the event card (step S52). Next, in each cell 11 at the intersection of the X axis and the Y axis of the electronic upright plate 10 determined in step S50,
The information of the created event card is applied and displayed as an upside down on the electronic upright board 10 (step S53). The load of the event card displayed in the upside down is added to the cell (step S54). When the reading of the target event data is completed, the total load of each cell is displayed (step S5).
5). The main information is, in this embodiment,
As shown in FIG. 7, a work number (for example, S0011), a facility name number (for example, A1), a work name (for example, work 1)
1, TO (work preparation time, for example, TO = 005), T
P (actual work time, for example, TP = 010). Information other than the main information held by the event card is not displayed at this stage due to the display area of the display screen.

FIG. 7 shows this state. Referring to FIG. 7, a horizontal axis of a work schedule board corresponding to the electronic upright board 10 is time-series, and a vertical axis is equipment.
On June 1 with facility name = A1, S0001 and S0004 are assigned as work, and capacity = 10 and load = 17 are displayed. The capacity indicates the processing capacity of the equipment A1, and the load indicates the work numbers S0001 and S.
The load of 0004 (time required for work processing) is shown. The load of each work is the total of TO and TP.

(2) Setting of vertical axis / horizontal axis In the above, the vertical axis and horizontal axis are automatically set, but the operator decides before selecting "work management execution". You may do it. FIG. 8 is a screen for this purpose, which is displayed by selecting “axis item setting” with a pointing device such as a mouse (clicking a mouse button) on the screen of FIG. The vertical axis / horizontal axis can be determined on the screen of FIG.

(3) Selection of display screen Further, depending on the contents of the event data and the master data, the operator does not automatically determine the contents to be displayed on the electronic upright board 10, but the operator can perform a step before the upright display. The display target data may be narrowed down according to conditions and displayed. For example, if the vertical axis is equipment (management items) and the horizontal axis is time (time series), the electronic stand-off plate can be displayed after designating a specific facility before display. FIG.
The screen for this is displayed by selecting "determine search contents" in the state of the screen of FIG. It is possible to determine the portion to be displayed on the screen of FIG. This is effective for the operation side to adjust only necessary items. Furthermore, by providing multiple search access keys in the event data, the display order of the cards displayed in each cell can be selected when the event cards are displayed on the electronic display board in an upside-down manner. Good.

(4) Replacing the Event Card Replacing FIGS. 10 and 11 are diagrams for explaining the replacing of the event card according to the present embodiment. In FIG. 10, the event card replacing operation section 4 is replaced. 11 is a flowchart showing a flow of processing performed when the replacement operation 13 is performed.
FIG. 8 is a diagram showing the result of replacing the work number S0004 of the equipment A1 on June 1 with the equipment A2 of the same date on the screen of FIG.

When a mouse drag and drop operation occurs on the event card placed upright on the electronic stand plate 10 (step S60), information on the current (before moving) event card is held (step S61). ). When the drag and drop operation of the mouse is completed (after movement), the coordinates (x,
y) is read (step S62). If the event card has movable coordinates, cell 1 corresponding to the coordinates after movement
Coordinates for displaying in a separated manner at 1 are calculated (step S6)
3). The event card is moved, that is, exchanged (step S64). At the same time, the contents of the replaced event card are also corrected to the information of the management item of the coordinate position after movement,
Update (step S65). The cell load before and after the movement of the event card is recalculated and displayed (step S66).

FIG. 11 is a diagram showing the above results, which is shown in FIG.
1, in the cell 11 of the equipment A1 on June 1, only the work S0001 is erected and the work S0004 is performed.
Has been sent to facility A2 on the same date. Also, 6
The load on the cell 11 of the facility A1 on the 1st of the month is updated (decreased) from 17 to 9. This is work S0004 (load =
This is because 8) was replaced. On the other hand, the load of the cell 11 of the facility A2 on the same date is updated (increased) from 10 to 18 by adding the load of the work S0004.

(5) Display of detailed information The event card normally displays only the main information due to the limited display space, but there are cases where it is desired to know the details. At this time, move the mouse cursor over the event card and double-click. FIG. 12 is an example of a screen displayed when the work S0011 is moved to the work S0011 in the state of FIG. 7 and double-clicked.
In this way, it is possible to display all the attributes of the event card.

(6) Dividing the event card There is a case where it is desired to divide the event card which is once assigned. For example, there is a case where a certain work is divided and a part of the work is to be executed on another day, or the work load exceeds the capacity of the facility and the work is divided. 13 and 14 are diagrams for explaining this event card division. When dividing an event card, first, in order to know all the attributes of the event card, move the mouse cursor to the event card and double-click to display the screen of the work details shown in FIG. . afterwards,
When "Card split" is selected on the screen of FIG.
Screen is displayed. Referring to FIG. 12, work S
Since 0011 has 005 work pieces, it can be divided. Therefore, for example, the number of divisions is set to 3 and 2 and "execute division" is selected. As a result, the screen of FIG. 14 is displayed. Referring to FIG. 14, event card work S001
The TO value of 1 was 10 in the state of FIG. 7, but is updated (decreased) to 4. This is the original TO =
This is because 10 is divided into 3: 2 and 10 × 2/5 = 4. Further, as a result, the load is 15 in the state of FIG.
However, it was updated (decreased) to 9. On the other hand, the remaining divided part is T as a new work S0021.
The O value is 6 and is displayed at the upper left of the screen. The operator can easily optimize the work by moving the event card S0021 on the upper left of the screen to an appropriate cell by operating the mouse. In the present embodiment, for simplification of description, the TP value is constant regardless of the number of works, and is T.
Only the O value changes depending on the number of works.

(6) State Transition When the operator who adjusts the work process carries out the adjustment work by moving the event card, that is, replacing the event card, the plan is fixed and the work is done for each adjustment point. It may be necessary to clearly understand the current state of work by adding statuses such as instructions and completion instructions. 15 to 17 are diagrams for explaining such a state transition, FIG. 16 is a flow chart showing the flow of processing of the event card state transition control unit 5 which performs state transition processing, and FIG. 16 is this event card state. A table used for visualization by color-coding the state transitions used by the transition control unit 5, and FIG. 16 shows the processing result of the state transitions generated by selecting "work instruction" in the state of FIG. It is a figure. It is assumed that the result of the operation load adjustment performed by the operator by the replacement of the event card is the state of FIG. 7. In this state, the worker is
A case will be described in which a work instruction is given for work on the first day of the month). This instruction is completed by clicking the "Work instruction" button on the screen in Fig. 7 and then clicking the axis button (that is, June 1) with the event card to be instructed after setting the work instruction mode. To do. The event card for which a work instruction has been issued is indicated by diagonal lines as shown in FIG. Although it is indicated by diagonal lines in FIG. 17,
Actually, the work instruction status shown in the table shown in FIG. 16 is displayed in yellow. The above operation will be described with reference to FIG. The operator (coordinator) is
By carrying out operations such as moving the event card, that is, replacing the event card, adjustment work is performed (step S7).
0), it is judged whether or not it is necessary to input a status (that is, "work instruction"), and if judged to be necessary, the electronic stand plate 1
The execution button to enter the state input mode such as confirmation / instruction arranged on the 0 is selected (in this case, "work instruction" is selected) to enter the state input mode (step S71). In the input status mode, the event card or cell or axis area (in this case, the axis area) to be input is clicked with the mouse (step S7).
2). By clicking on a cell or axis area,
The status is input collectively for each cell and each axis. The input status mode is added to the event card whose state has been input, and the event data is updated (step S73). At the same time, the target card is displayed in different colors according to the state with reference to the table shown in FIG. 16 (step S74). By displaying the event card in different colors,
It becomes easier for the operating side to visually grasp the current state. For status transition input, prepare and execute status input buttons such as work registration, work assignment, and work completion depending on the contents of the adjustment work.

(7) Graph display By adding a graph display function on the electronic upright plate 10,
It is possible to visually grasp the load value of the event card set in each cell 11. Two types of graphs can be displayed by the configuration of the vertical axis (Y axis) and the horizontal axis (X axis). 18 and 19 show examples of screens created using this graph function. In FIG. 18, in FIG. 7, the horizontal axis represents time series (in units of days), and the vertical axis represents management items (such as work management). (Equipment to be used, etc.), a daily workload graph is displayed by clicking the area on the horizontal axis with the mouse. In FIG. 19, by clicking the area on the vertical axis, work by equipment is displayed. This is a display of a load graph. This allows the operator to perform work adjustment work from two viewpoints.

(8) Change of Displayed Contents In the above description, the event card is displayed by the work number, but the event data can be displayed instead of the worker information. For example, by selecting "worker assignment" in the state of FIG. 7, the screen of FIG. 7 becomes the screen shown in FIG. Further, by selecting "work assignment" in the state of FIG. 20, the screen returns to the previous screen of FIG.

(9) Registration of Event Card FIG. 21 and FIG. 22 are diagrams for explaining new registration of an event card, FIG. 21 is a diagram showing a screen for newly registering an event card, and FIG. It is a flow chart which shows a flow of processing which performs. The registration work will be described below with reference to the drawings. In addition to the currently dispatched event card, if work needs to be added and new registration is required for the event card, click the "Card Registration" button on the electronic stand. When selected, the card registration screen of FIG. 21 is displayed (step S90). On this screen, the operator (adjuster) inputs the input items on the registration screen (step S91). When the "registration" button in FIG. 21 is selected after the input of items is completed, the item input is checked (step S92), and then registered in the database as event data (step S93), and the registered event data is registered. If it is necessary to instantly display the display on the electronic display panel 10 that is currently displayed, create an event card (step S
94), calculate the coordinates of the cells to be laid out and display them on the electronic erection board 10 (step S95), or display them on the upper left of the screen in the same manner as shown at the time of division in FIG. May move to an appropriate cell 11 position.

(10) Example of Master Board FIGS. 23 and 24 are views showing an example of a master board in which only the master card is set up on the electronic standup plate 10, and FIG.
3 shows each work as 1 with the work name on the vertical axis and the required time on the horizontal axis.
It is a work list board that is displayed as a card, and
4 indicates each equipment by taking the equipment name on the vertical axis and the ability on the horizontal axis.
It is a facility list board that is displayed as a card. 23 and 24 are displayed by selecting them from the top menu displayed when the electronic dispatch system is started up.

(11) Update of Master Card The update of the master card is normally performed by using the input screen for update, but in the present embodiment, it can be easily performed only by operating the mouse. In the work list board of FIG. 23, when the time required for the work is changed due to a change in equipment, for example, if the time required for the work 2 is 6 instead of 4 until now, the work 2 column is provided. The database is updated by replacing the existing master board with two adjacent cells. The same update is possible on the equipment list board shown in FIG. FIG.
In 4, the ability is designated as a range, but if you replace it, you can achieve it by disassembling the range of the destination, or display the ability value subdivided from the beginning. Good. Although the master card has been described as a fixed card, it can be moved during the update work. In the above description, the event card has been mainly described, but the same applies to the master card.

Embodiment 2. 25 and 26 are diagrams for explaining an embodiment in which the electronic dispatch system according to the present invention is applied to schedule management. In FIG. 25, on the schedule management board, a schedule card in which one piece of personal schedule data is regarded as one dispatch card is displayed in a side-by-side display. As the contents of the schedule data,
There are employee number, start / end time, subject, etc. Since it has a time item that is a continuous item, the schedule data becomes an event card and the displayed card becomes an event card. In FIG. 25, the horizontal axis has time, and the vertical axis has date, which is a continuous item. In this case, the schedule card can be expanded and contracted in the horizontal axis direction. FIG. 26 is a display screen showing the details of one piece of schedule data. FIG.
By selecting the "Register" button on the screen of FIG.
A new registration screen with the same format as the screen and the blank input part is displayed. Note that the operation and movement of the schedule card on the schedule management board shown in FIG. 25, such as the display and replacement of the schedule card, are the same as those in the first embodiment.

There are two methods for displaying the detailed contents of the event card in the second embodiment.
One is to double-click the mouse on the event card to display another screen displaying the event card information (Fig. 2
6) is displayed. It is also possible to perform adjustment work by directly correcting the value displayed on this screen. The other is to display the information of the event card when the mouse pointer is pointed to a certain area of the event card. Although the main information is displayed on the event card, it is effective to apply this display method when the amount of data to be displayed on the event card does not fit within the frame of the event card. For example, on the screen of FIG. 25, when the mouse pointer is placed on a certain area on the schedule card (meeting), a small window (not shown) displaying the detailed contents of the meeting is displayed.

Next, the new registration in the second embodiment will be described. When the "Register" button is clicked on the screen of FIG. 25, a new input screen (registration screen) is displayed. By filling in each item on the displayed input screen and clicking the "Register" button on the input screen, event data is newly added, and a new schedule card is newly created / displayed based on the contents of the data. It

When newly registering the above event data, if data such as undecided worker or undecided date occurs, it can be treated as temporary registration on the electronic stand 10 (schedule board). . That is, the color of the card at this time is displayed in white, which represents the hold state. The registration of the event data is confirmed by re-entering the unentered items of the hold card or by moving to the cell of the adjustment target with the mouse, that is, by exchanging.

On the new schedule data registration screen, when the new time item is not entered and the "Register" button is clicked as it is when the time item is not entered, the temporary pasted card is displayed in the upper left of the schedule board in FIG. 25. Is
Registration is confirmed by sending this temporary schedule card to the adjustment destination.

Further, when the same work is input, it is possible to copy and register the contents of the already-arranged event card without performing the registration work each time.
