Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] 3. Detailed Description of the Invention [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a data reading device, and in particular, for comparing data already input to a computer or the like with original data. The present invention relates to a data reading device suitable for use in reading out input data.

[Conventional technology]

In order to collate data already input into a computer or the like with original data, the following collation method has been used in the past.

(1) A method of having two operators input the same data and mechanically comparing the input data of each operator.

(2) A method of displaying the input data on the VDT and comparing it with the data sheet containing the original data.

(3) A method in which one operator reads out either the manual data displayed on the VDT or the data on the data sheet, and another operator listens to the data while checking the other data.

(4) A method of printing out the entered data and checking it on your desk by overlapping it with the data sheet.

However, in the case of (1), these methods are effective if there are two hot-wired operators, but in the case of amateurs, the verification work efficiency is significantly reduced, and in the case of (2), the eyes move frequently. In the case of (3), the efficiency is good but requires two operators and the fatigue caused by reading out loud is large.In the case of (4), the operator is highly fatigued and the collation work efficiency is low.In the case of (4), the eye movement is This reduces operator fatigue compared to case (2), but it also has the problem of requiring time and printing paper costs to have the printer print.

In order to streamline the work of comparing data that has been input into a computer, etc. with the original data, it is possible to read out the input data aloud using a voice reading device, but conventionally, such a method It had not been adopted.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

When data that has been entered into a computer, etc. is read out aloud using a data reading device and compared with the original data, the operator performing the matching work can hear the entered data with his ears, so he does not have to use his eyes. You can concentrate on the data on the data sheet where the original data is written, and you can also use your hands to handle the data sheet and track the readout data, ensuring reliable verification even when the operator is an amateur. It can be done efficiently.

However, if the operator misses some of the read-out data during the verification process, the operator must read the same data again once the output of the read-out data for the verification process is complete, and repeat the missed part. There are problems in that it takes time to confirm and reconfirm, making it difficult to perform verification work efficiently, and it is also difficult to use.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a data reading device that allows an operator to reconfirm the missed part of the data in a short time when the operator misses reading data during verification work. be.

[Means for solving problems]

According to the present invention, the above object is achieved by providing a switch that can be operated by hand or foot so that the operator can arbitrarily control the stop of reading out or the start of re-reading.

[Operation] Data that has already been input to a computer or the like is input to the data reading device in a pre-collected form. If the operator opens the read-out data while reading out the data, the operator can stop the read-out of the data by operating the switch mentioned above, and start from the beginning of the data that has been input into the data-reading device in advance. You can start reading aloud. For this reason, the data reading device according to the present invention is easy to use and immediately starts rereading from a well-separated data section, so that missed data can be reconfirmed in a short time and collation work can be carried out efficiently. It is a suitable device to use to carry out this process.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of a data reading device according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a processing program for explaining its operation. In FIG. 1, 1 is a reading data processing section, 2 is an input data memory section, 3 is a VDT, 4 is a keyboard, 5 is a speech synthesis processing section,
6 is an audio data memory section, 7 is an audio reproduction processing section, 8 is a foot switch, 9 is a headphone, 10 is an operator, 1
1 is a data sheet, and 12 is a floppy disk.

As shown in FIG. 1, the data reading device according to the present invention includes a reading data processing unit 1 that controls the operation of the entire data reading device, a VDT 3 for display, and a keyboard 4 that inputs data for data correction. , an input data memory section 2 in which data to be read out is stored, and a speech synthesis processing section 5 are connected to each other. The speech synthesis processing section 5 is connected to a speech data memory section 6 in which digitized speech data corresponding to characters such as alphabets, numbers, kana characters, etc. is stored, and further converts the synthesized speech data from the speech synthesis device 5 into analog form. The audio signal is connected to an audio reproduction processing unit 7 which converts the audio signal into an audio signal and provides the audio signal to the headphones 9. The data written on the data sheet 11, which is the original data, is input in advance by key-in input or the like, and is stored on the floppy disk 12 as input data.

Using the data reading device configured as described above, the original data written on the data sheet 11 and! Koppy. When performing a comparison with the input data on the disk 12, the comparison operation is performed as follows according to the flowchart shown in FIG.

Prior to the verification work, the inputted data stored on the floppy disk 12 is set in the input data memory section 2. The reading data processing unit 1 retrieves a set of data from the input data memory unit 2 according to a predetermined data reading procedure, displays it on the VDT 3, converts the retrieved data into a data structure suitable for reading, and performs speech synthesis. A send reading command is issued to the processing unit 5. Based on this read-aloud command, the voice synthesis processor 5 sequentially retrieves digital voice data corresponding to the read-aloud data given from the read-aloud data processor 1 from the voice data memory 6 and sends it to the voice reproduction processor 7. The audio reproduction processing section 7
Digital audio data is converted into analog audio and transmitted to the ears of an operator 10 via headphones 9.

The operator 10 listens to the inputted data by voice and the data sheet held in his hand.
Compare and match the original data listed above. If the operator 10 finds a discrepancy in this comparison, the operator 10 depresses the foot switch 8 at his/her feet.
Turn on.

By turning on the foot switch 8, the speech synthesis processing section 5 informs the speech data processing section 1 of what the reading data is at that time. The read-out data processing section 1 thereby controls to move the cursor of the VDT 3 to the display position of the current read-out data. When the operator 10 turns his eyes from the data sheet 11 to the VDT 3 after operating the foot switch 8, the cursor is set at the data position where the error was discovered, so he uses the keyboard 4 to change the incorrect data to the correct data. Do the work to fix it. The reading data processing unit 1 converts the correction data inputted from the keyboard 4 into V
The data is displayed on the DT 3 and sent to the input memory unit 2, the manually inputted data in the input memo 9 unit 2 is corrected, and the erroneously inputted data in the floppy disk 12 is corrected via the manually operated memory unit 2.

When the operator 10 then operates the foot switch 8 again, the reading data processing section 1 issues a reading command to the speech synthesis processing section 5. The speech synthesis processing unit 5 performs speech synthesis on the data portion that has just been corrected in the same manner as described above, and causes the operator 10 to listen to the audio signal via the audio reproduction processing unit 7. The operator 10 can thereby confirm that the mismatched data has been corrected.

In addition, if reconfirmation is necessary due to overhearing, etc., the operator 10 operates the foot switch 8 to process the read-out data in the same way as when a discrepancy is discovered between the data already input to a computer etc. and the original data. 1 to stop reading out the data, and then operate the foot switch 8 again.

By operating the foot switch 8 twice, the reading data processing section 1 instructs the speech synthesis processing section 5 to read out the group of data again from the beginning. Operator IO is
This allows you to immediately reconfirm the data you missed.

In the embodiment described above, the mud switch 8 may be a switch that can be operated with a hand other than a keyboard, or may be a switch that can be operated with a part of the register body.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, according to the present invention, by using a switch that can be operated with hands or feet in addition to the keyboard, it is possible to immediately stop reading and read out again. By using them together, it is possible to construct an easy-to-use data reading device that allows data to be easily modified. Therefore, using the data reading device according to the present invention,
When collating data that has been entered into a computer, etc. with original data, the operator can visually check the original data on the data sheet while listening to the input data, making the verification process easy and efficient even for amateurs. Not only can you use a switch such as a foot switch that does not require manual operation to stop reading and start rereading while holding the data sheet in both hands, you can also control rereading. At the start of the process or when restarting the work after it has been interrupted, data can be read out starting from well-delimited data parts, further improving the efficiency of the collation work.
