In the above embodiment, the identification display 10 such as the case number provided on the back edge of the case 5 is displayed in 13 bits according to the bright/dark code, and the detection sensor for detecting this is a reflective photo sensor 11.・11 corresponds.

2 is a search case display light, which is provided on the front of the pedestal 2 and corresponds to each storage section 4, and displays the search case. 2
1 is a block indicator light, and in the embodiment, one mount 2 is divided into 194 blocks on block walls 22, 23, and 24.
Display the storage block of the search case. Reference numeral 5 indicates a light emitting/receiving window for the storage state sensor light.
It is composed of a main body 5b having a lid 5b on the front edge of the front end, and a lid 5a.
Open it and store X-ray film and other items inside.

Further, on the back side of the case 5, a frame plate y is glued to form a flat back face of a required area, and identification display sheets n with bright/dark codes are individually glued to predetermined positions thereof as described above.

The rack 1 is electrically connected to a main controller shown in FIG.

C+PU (central processing unit) 29, display chrysanthemum, keyboard m, storage device! When you open the communication interface and input the number of the case you want to search using the keyboard 31, it will be temporarily stored in the storage device n.
A communication interface is provided to transmit the start command to the subcomputer installed in the search display rack 1. When the search is completed, the message is displayed on the display unit.

In the search display rack 1, the case identification display 1 has 13 bright and dark codes marked on the back edge of each case 5 as described above.
0 has been made, and on the back of the pedestal 2 there is a position display 18 for the purpose of reading the case storage position.
Since a is provided, they are used as detection sensors on the scanning unit 9, that is, reflective photosensors; is received by the pinion 16, and the rainbow scanning unit 9 is self-propelled in mesh with the rack gear 15 to perform a scanning search. Scanning is asynchronous to the drive system, and the position of the case is detected by an independent sensor to achieve high-speed scanning. That is, the data of the case to be searched is received by the subcomputer, and the data is stored in the memory. When the start command is received, it is checked whether the scanning unit 9 is located at the left end or right end,
If not, move to either end first.

Then start scanning to the opposite side. First, the detection of the position indicator 18 is checked.

If this is detected, the scanning unit 9 will display the case identification display 10.
When the case is in the reading position, the case identification display 10 is read. It is then compared with the search case number received earlier and stored in memory. If they match, the case indicator lamp corresponding to the storage section 4 in which the case is stored is lit.

At this time, the block indicator light n also lights up at the same time. If the search case numbers do not match, or if the storage section is empty, proceed directly to the next step, repeat this operation to move to the opposite end, and end the scan. Sends a termination message to the main controller row and ends the search. Incidentally, the scanning unit 9 detects a movement control display at the end, and its movement is controlled. A desired search case 5 can be prepared by pulling out the case 5 corresponding to the case indicator light from the pedestal 2.

When the case 5 becomes thick with the contents, the partition plate 3 can be removed and expanded.

For example, by inputting the case number of a spectacular case all at once into the keyboard 31 of the main controller, the search case can be displayed on the search display rack 1 and retrieved.

Effects of the Invention Since the present invention is as described above, the case number can be quickly searched by simply typing the case number into the keyboard, and the required case can be easily retrieved and prepared. Used again
