Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To attain low costs in a whole life cycle by allowing a product and part itself to have individual management information. SOLUTION: Information transfer among each processing of manufacture, use, maintenance, collection, and secondhand sales is operated by using information in an individual management storage device 1 provided in a product and data in an outside storage device 2 obtained through an information network. The outside storage device 2 is connected with an information network, connected with supporting devices 11-17 in each processing such as manufacture and maintenance or the like, and the necessary information of the supporting devices is provided. Individual information such as material information or part constitution information is stored with the ID information of the product in a data base at the time of manufacture. Also, product history information such as the activation information and maintenance information of each product is stored in the product itself as individual management information. Then, information necessary for each processing support or the like is processed, judged, and outputted by sharing the data base, and using the individual management information in each step of a product life cycle.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a system using individual management information of products and parts, which is used in the process of manufacturing, using, maintaining, collecting, second-hand sales, processing, and reusing products.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Throughout the so-called product life cycle from the time a product is manufactured until it is discarded, maintenance that prolongs the product life, recovery that keeps added value higher,
Second-hand sales that match market needs, with higher added value,
There is a demand for low-cost, low-impact processing, use of recycled parts that have high reuse rates and satisfy quality and performance. In the life cycle of such a product, there is an idea to collect operation information and history information of the product and to construct a repair support system or the like using the information.

[0003]

However, in the above-mentioned prior art, since the operation information and the history information of the product are collected at a specific place different from the flow of the product in the life cycle of the product, the collection and management are performed. May be difficult. In particular, since the operation information is used in various places and environments, it is difficult to manage the operation information in terms of labor, cost, and data reliability.

If it is not possible to accurately collect and manage product history information and operation information, the history information and operation information cannot be used at each point in the product life cycle. Development and improvement, use of recycled parts, maintenance, collection, second-hand sales, and rationalization of processing cannot be realized.

An object of the present invention is to provide a system for realizing product development / improvement, use of recycled parts, maintenance, collection, second-hand sale, and rationalization of processing in order to reduce costs throughout the product life cycle. That is.

[0006]

According to the present invention, individual information such as material information and component configuration information is stored in a database together with product ID information at the time of manufacturing, and operation information and maintenance information of individual products are stored. The product history information is stored in the product itself as individual management information, the database is shared, and the individual management information is used at each step of the product life cycle to process information necessary for repair support, processing support, and the like. It can be realized by adopting a system that judges and outputs. In this system, individual management information is stored in the product / part itself, so that product management, product development, reuse of recycled parts, collection, second-hand sales, and processing are used while circulating the individual management information, thereby improving product life. Optimization throughout the cycle is possible. In addition, product development and improvement,
In order to use individual information in each step of reuse of recycled parts, maintenance, collection, used sales, and processing, it is possible to use by inputting and storing ID information and history information in the product itself, and reading it out. Becomes

As a means for storing individual information, a memory chip, a magnetic recording medium, an optical storage medium, or the like can be used, and its input / output includes means such as a bar code, a magnet, an IC, a microcomputer directly connected, and a wireless IC tag. The individual management information can be read from the product itself by using these alone or in combination. In addition, optimization can be performed in each step by using external management information together.

In each step of product development / improvement, reuse of recycled parts, maintenance, collection, second-hand sales, and processing,
The individual management information and the external management information are read by the processing support device of each step, and the optimum processing method is output by the respective judgment devices.
