Specification

Vehicle replacement plan creation support device

The present invention relates to a system that supports creation of a vehicle replacement plan at a vehicle depot or the like. Background art

Vehicles on the premises, such as driver's stations and train stations, enter and leave on time (main line schedule) using various schedules, such as a replacement schedule or a replacement work schedule. At the time of admission, each vehicle will be turned from the service line of the main line to a workable line according to the schedule of inspection, repair and cleaning. In the case of inspection or repair of vehicles, disassembly and reconnection are performed. At the time of departure, the determined formation (vehicle) is switched from the drop-in line to the main line according to the main line schedule. Conventionally, an apparatus for supporting the creation of a diagram in a vehicle depot has been proposed (for example, see Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2000-19049). Disclosure of the invention

In preparing the conventional replacement plan, experienced staff take into account the schedule of vehicle operation and inspection, repair, and cleaning of each vehicle based on the main line schedule and the layout of the premises (track layout) based on knowledge and experience. Was rebuilding the schedule in the depot. As described above, the knowledge and experience of veteran personnel were the main factors, and it was difficult to pass on the know-how related to the preparation of the replacement plan to the successor.

Also, at the train depot in the train depot, vehicles conforming to the main line schedule are used. It is necessary to prepare various work schedules related to the replacement plan in consideration of the allocation of both replacement times and the optimal allocation of workers. In addition, if the main line schedule is disrupted, it is necessary to change various work schedules and change vehicles on a flexible basis. However, various work schedules are prepared periodically on a monthly, weekly, and daily basis depending on operations, etc.If the schedule cannot be implemented as planned due to disruptions in the main line schedule or vehicle breakdown, etc. The work schedule had to be changed in a timely manner. As described above, since the work schedules are mainly performed manually, the work is time-consuming and time-consuming. Therefore, in the present invention, the same result can be obtained under the same conditions regardless of who performs the operation so that the replacement plan can be created without relying on the knowledge, experience, etc. of the experienced staff. Such a system will be constructed to provide a vehicle replacement plan creation support system that can simplify the transfer of know-how related to the creation of a replacement plan.

Specifically, a vehicle replacement basic data section that stores basic information including track layout and inspections, repairs, and cleaning schedules for each vehicle, a data exchange plan created by accepting data input from users, and And an input / output unit for displaying the same.

Preferably, a replacement plan is automatically created in accordance with predetermined conditions based on the data of the vehicle replacement basic data section and the data input at the input / output section, and the created replacement plan is output to the input / output section. It is to be.

Preferably, the display of the input / output unit is designated by a turntable for displaying a list of replacement plans in chronological order, and a maintenance / cleaning schedule for displaying the inspection, repair, and cleaning schedule of each vehicle. It consists of at least a plurality of charts, one of which is a line diagram that shows the status of the line at the time of the day, and the other is a diagram that shows a one-day replacement plan in a graphical format. More preferably, it is determined whether or not the information input from any one of the charts causes inconsistency with the replacement plan or the operation plan, and a warning is displayed if the inconsistency occurs. .

It is also preferable that the data change of one of the charts is reflected and displayed on the other chart.

Also preferably, the data on the other chart related to one specified data in the chart is highlighted.

Also preferably, the display of the input / output unit includes a transit table that displays the exchange plan in chronological order, and in the transit table, other data related to the data specified by the input / output unit is displayed. Highlight display.

As a result, work can be leveled, and there is no need to take over work that depends on the accumulation of know-how, and a system that can produce the same result under the same conditions no matter who performs the operation. Can be.

Further, the present invention aims to shorten the work time and improve the efficiency by unifying the system by patterning the creation of various work schedules.

Specifically, there is a means to input the schedule change information of the main line from outside, and the created replacement plan is to be reflected in the work schedule and output. By inputting the main line change information and managing the replacement plan and work schedule creation with one system, even if the plan cannot be implemented as planned due to the disruption of the main line schedule and vehicle failure, etc. It is possible to create a work schedule that reflects the main line schedule information that has been saved without taking much time.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION FIG. 3 shows a system flow diagram of a vehicle replacement plan creation support system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The input / output unit 1 is an interface for exchanging information with a user, and has a display as a display device and at least one pointing device such as a keyboard, a mouse, and a stylus as an input device. . If this system has the necessary processing capacity, a desktop PC terminal can be used as a system device. In this way, by building a stand-alone system and making it compact, it can be incorporated into existing desktops or notebook PCs. Further, the input / output unit 1 may be configured separately from a data storage unit and an automatic generation unit described later.

The user uses this input / output unit 1 to register basic information 2 such as premises layouts, and to input arbitrary modification 3 of the replacement plan data. Also, while viewing the status display 4 on the display, it is possible to visually check the on-rail status and the like. The basic registration 2 may be input using a keyboard or the like, or the basic information such as the premises layout stored on the media may be read by a media reading device, or received from another system via a network. You may.

Basic registration 2 registers or changes the premises layout such as track layout, main line schedule information, vehicle information, and the basic information of each station / train area such as inspection, repair, and cleaning of each vehicle. At this time, in basic registration 2, it is only necessary to register or change the basic information of at least the premises layout such as the arrangement of the track number, main line diagram information, and vehicle information. The basic data registered in the basic registration 2 is stored in the basic data section 5. The basic data section 5 includes a route control system and a vehicle management system via a network or the like as shown by connection 12 in the figure. It is preferable to be able to connect (connect) with other systems such as a system and to transmit and receive data. As a result, if the main line schedule is changed, it will be possible to obtain the information through the network and reflect it in the vehicle changeover schedule, and use it as a total timetable management system. Will be possible.

The automatic generation unit 6 automatically creates time-series information on vehicle replacement work, such as entering and leaving, based on the contents of the vehicle replacement basic data 5 and the actual performance information of the vehicle replacement work. Stored in the data section 7. The exchange plan data that is automatically generated may be plan data in units of one day, or may be automatically generated for a plurality of days and one week.

The status display 4 is a visual representation of the stored contents of the vehicle replacement basic data portion 5 and Z or the vehicle replacement plan data 7 in a turntable, a train map, a diagram, and the like, which will be described later. It is preferable to use it in combination with the optional correction function described below.

The optional modification 3 is for arbitrarily modifying the contents of the vehicle replacement plan data section 7. This function allows the user to arbitrarily correct the automatically generated vehicle replacement plan data. This function is used when the vehicle replacement plan has changed due to turbulence in train schedules, vehicle breakdowns, etc. In addition, since the status display 4 can simultaneously display the status of the vehicle's location map and the like at the time of correction, it is possible to work while checking the details and improve efficiency.

As described above, in the system according to the present embodiment, the efficiency of various operations related to the creation of a replacement plan can be improved by enhancing the man-machine interface such as visibility and operability.

The form output unit 8 outputs schedule information of vehicle inspection, repair, cleaning, etc., and vehicle replacement plan data based on the vehicle replacement plan data unit 7 as a form. In addition, it is preferable to adopt a template method for the format of various forms, so that the user can freely change the output format. The form output unit 8 outputs an inspection work schedule 9, a replacement work schedule, and a cleaning work schedule (not shown). Based on this schedule, the actual vehicle replacement work 10 such as cleaning, inspection and repair is performed. Fig. 4 shows an example of the replacement work schedule. The leftmost column is the work number. For example, the content of work number 1 is that at 4:32, the train number 18 (train number 403M) starts from area 0 (departure area) 2 of track 0, and enters and exits the main line and depot. Is shown as a destination line. Similarly, work number 2 indicates that at 4:43, the train with the formation number 3 will leave from the 1st section of line 2 to the entry / exit section. Also, work number 13 indicates that at 8:30, the train with the formation number 25 enters the second section of line 1 from the entry / exit line. Fig. 5 shows an example of the cleaning work schedule. For example, the top line indicates that daily cleaning is to be carried out for trains with a train number of 28 between 10:30 and 10:40 on the 17-1 line. ing.

An example of the maintenance work schedule 9 in Fig. 6 is shown. For example, the top line states that for the train with the formation number 30, additional work of the lifting hand will be performed as an extraordinary inspection during the detention time on line 13 between 9:21 and 15:55. Have been.

The output schedule of replacement work, schedule of cleaning work, and schedule of repair work 9 are output as a form and given to the person in charge of the work. This output may be an electronic output to a work PC, a form information terminal such as a PDA, etc. in addition to the output to paper. In this way, for example, when there is a problem in the performance of these tasks due to the convenience of the worker, information on the content indicating that the task cannot be performed is fed back to this system, and a new vehicle replacement plan is regenerated. That It is possible to contribute to improvement of work efficiency. Also, the input / output unit 1 may be equipped with a function for previewing these forms to check the contents in advance.

In this way, by directly reflecting the prepared replacement plan in various work schedules, it is possible to save the labor and time required for form preparation work that has been performed manually. In addition, by patterning the creation of various work schedules, work time can be reduced and efficiency can be improved.

1 and 2 show display examples of the display of the input / output unit 1. FIG. In this example, a display method in which child screens are displayed side by side on the display is employed. However, a display method in which these are superimposed and the necessary information screen is made active may be used. Here, the contents of the vehicle replacement basic data unit 5 and / or the vehicle replacement plan data as a result generated by the automatic generation unit 6 are displayed in a time-series list.

First, a description of the transposition table 28 at the upper left of the screen will be described. In this table, the serial number in the number column 21, the time at which the event occurs at the start time 22, the train number corresponding to the train number column 23, the train number corresponding to the train number column 24, and the starting line column In 25, the line from which the train departs, in the receiving line column 26, the line in which the train arrives, and in the content column 27, are the entry, departure, or the description of the train in Figure 2. Is displayed. Here, the “turning line” means moving along the track in the track of the depot.

According to the figure, for example, the row with the number 1 indicates that train 1 (train 101) leaves at 11:24 from 11th and 12th lines (2nd section of the 1st line) to enter and exit the line. It is shown. In the state shown in the figure, the numbering line of the formation 7 scheduled to enter at 8:30, which is displayed in the row of the number 7, is blank. When planning a replacement plan, the user can directly enter the blank cells, and There is a method that automatically fills the blank line with the automatic plan creation button.

Data can be input, added, or changed on any cell of the circuit diagram 28. It is also possible to exchange data by cutting and pasting or moving a specified line. Also at the top of the column

By specifying parts such as “number”, “start time”, and “composition number”, it is possible to sort by the attribute, but in the initial state, the plan for the day is displayed in chronological order. I have.

At the bottom of the child screen of this transit table 28, an operation confirmation button that displays the schedule of the trains listed in the transit table and other trains on the main line, inspection and inspection related to the organization specified on this child screen Inspection to display the cleaning schedule on the screen and check it · Cleaning schedule confirmation button, inspection and cleaning shown below · Cleaning schedule 35 Allocate work to the transfer plan and automatically generate a replacement plan Create button, save button to save the data changes in the table, redo button to restore the data changes to the last time saved, form output button to output the replacement work schedule described above, end button to end the work on the routing table Is displayed, and the relevant function is executed when instructed by a pointing device such as a mouse or a sunset.

Next, the inspection and cleaning schedule 35 will be explained. The maintenance and cleaning schedule 35 shows the work schedule of the maintenance and cleaning work on the target date. Although only the cleaning work is shown in the figure, a tab or the like (not shown) may be provided, and the list may be switched to another list of the inspection work or the like by the designated tab.

The assignment column 29 indicates the assignment status (not assigned in the figure) indicating whether or not the work schedule is assigned to the transfer table by the above-mentioned automatic plan creation button, and the cleaning type column 30 indicates the cleaning type (in the figure). Daily cleaning is indicated), and serial number 檷 3 1 The number of the knitting, the work line column 32 shows the line where the work is performed, the work content column 33 shows the work content, and the detention time column 34 shows the time when the formation is detained on the work line. Is displayed.

This table also allows you to enter, add, and change data on any cell. It is also possible to change the data by cutting, pasting, or moving a specified line. By specifying a part such as “assignment” or “cleaning type” at the top of the column, it is possible to sort according to the attribute, but in the initial state, they are arranged in order of the composition number.

At the bottom of the sub-screen of this inspection / cleaning schedule 35, a closing button for closing the sub-screen is provided. By instructing this button on the pointing device, the child screen of the inspection and cleaning schedule 35 is closed.

Next, the on-rail diagram and diagram diagram 36 in Figs. 1 and 2 are explained. Here, the line diagram and the diagram are displayed as one child screen, but they may be displayed on another child screen. In addition, the diagram is a diagram that displays the replacement plan for one day in the form of a graph.

First, the track map 38 corresponding to the upper half of the train map / diagram 36 displays the trajectory 38 of the line section that is the subject of the vehicle replacement plan. Of the track 38, the entry / exit area 37 is a track connecting the main line and the depot as described above.

The four black squares on the figure represent one composition, and the composition number is displayed beside it. In addition, a track is displayed on the track. For example, in FIG. 5, knitting 1 is placed on track 112, which is the second section of track 1. Similarly, formation 2 is detained on line 2-1, and similarly shows the detention status of each formation at 4:58 on July 1, 2003 (displayed at the upper left of the child screen). are doing. This is based on the above-mentioned transit table. This is because the line has been specified, and the status of the line is displayed, and the time of 4:58 and the behavior of the knitting, “Department 1-2 → Entry / Exit”, are displayed below the display time. It is what is displayed.

On the other hand, instead of displaying the location map based on the composition specified in the routing table, the composition is specified on this location map, or the time is specified, and the routing corresponding to the specified composition or time is specified. Events on the line table or inspections · Events in the cleaning schedule may be displayed separately from other events in the table, or may be edited. This makes it easier to visually specify the target than to search for the data change target on the inversion table, thereby improving work efficiency.

Although not shown, organization 1 is specified by the user here, and eight highlights are displayed, that is, highlighted to distinguish it from other organizations. As the highlight display method, a method of displaying in a color different from other knitting, a display of link, etc. can be considered, but any method may be used as long as it can be visually distinguished from other knitting. .

Location diagram · Diagram diagram In the diagram that corresponds to the lower half of the diagram 36, the vertical axis 39 is displayed as a line and the horizontal axis 40 is displayed as time, and the detention status at that time in each line is indicated by a horizontal bar 41, This is indicated by 42. The vertical bar 44 is a time line indicating the time shown in the above-mentioned line diagram by a vertical bar, and indicates 4:58.

As can be seen from this diagram, the knitting machine 1, which had been detained on line 112 until then, enters the ward at 4:58. This is indicated visually at 4:58 by a line extending from the right end of the bar 41 toward the entrance / exit line. From this diagram, it can be seen that the next knitting set is knitting set 4 which is detained on line 3-1. At 9:53, a rectangle 45 appears at the entrance / exit area. The line is not extended to the track. This indicates, as will be described later, the existence of an organization scheduled to enter.

On the other hand, instead of displaying this diagram based on the knitting specified in the transit table, specify the knitting on this diagram or specify the time to correspond to the specified knitting or time. Events on the inversion table or inspection · Events in the cleaning schedule may be displayed separately from other events in the table, or the events may be edited. This makes it easier to visually specify the target rather than searching for the data change target on the inversion table, thereby improving work efficiency.

The designated composition 1 is the composition currently designated as described above, and is highlighted in the same manner as the on-rail map so as to be distinguished from the composition retained at other track numbers.

Here, these link tables 28, inspection ■ Cleaning schedule 35, on-board map / diagram The coordination of FIG. 36 and automatic creation of a replacement plan will be described with reference to FIGS.

Enter the number 5 as shown in Fig. 2 for the blank line in the transfer line table 28 in Fig. 1, for example, in the numbering line column of the knitting number 7 of No. 7 (the numbering line column 4 6 in Fig. 2). This allows the user to directly specify the destination line 5. Here, for example, when a line where another train is already located at the time is specified, it is possible to display that the line cannot be specified and / or to forcibly cancel the input.

It is also possible to judge whether the input information causes inconsistency with the replacement plan or the operation plan, and to display a warning when the inconsistency occurs. Judgment as to whether or not inconsistency occurs can be made, for example, by simply specifying a line where another train is present at that time, or by performing a retrospective process described later. This is performed by using.

On the other hand, it is possible to prioritize the replacement schedule of a newly entered train set and change the replacement schedule of another train set according to the train schedule. For example, there is a case where priority is given to a maintenance / cleaning schedule obtained in advance via a network and / or directly input by a user in a maintenance / cleaning schedule. In that case, another second formation existing on the departure / arrival line of the newly specified formation is specified retrospectively, and the specified second formation can be departed, arrived or transferred, and Look for a line that does not conflict with the entry / exit plan for the formation 2. If such a line is found, the process is terminated by assigning the departure or arrival or transfer line of the second formation to the line. If the track is not found, consider moving the second train including the transfer line, and if there is still a contradiction, go back in time to another third train after the second train. Identify and evaluate whether there is any inconsistency in the entry / exit plan of the second formation when it is assumed that the second formation uses the track used by the third formation. If there is no inconsistency, assign the second formation to that line, and then search for a new assigned line for the third formation in a similar manner. Then, if an inconsistency occurs in the last composition set back, it indicates that the data of this new input is not inputtable, and cancels the input. If inconsistencies no longer occur on the way, change the replacement plan for the affected trains and redisplay Route Table 28. By such a retrospective process, a process that gives priority to replacement data of a newly input organization can be performed.

In addition, it is possible to fill in the blanks of the turning line table by instructing the automatic plan creation button at the bottom of the turning line table 28. In this case, contrary to the retrospective processing described above, the arrival and departure number lines are specified in chronological order. At that time, the inspection / cleaning schedule that was obtained via the network in advance in the inspection / cleaning schedule and that was directly input by Z or the user is reflected. First, for the trains with the earliest start time for which no arrival and departure line is specified, search for an empty line and assign it. At that time, if a destination line is assigned, a generation line for that train is automatically created based on the operation of the district. At that time, make sure that there is no conflict with the replacement of other trains. For example, in Fig. 1, if it is necessary to leave formation 5 before formation 4, the operation of formation 4 leaves after formation 5 and the entry / exit line Contradiction arises if line 3-2, which is deeper than line 3-1 where formation 4 is located, is assigned to. If it is absolutely necessary to assign to Line 3–2, automatically plan the turn of Line 4 to leave Line 3–1 at the departure time of Line 5 (for example, Retroactive processing).

In such automatic planning processing, for example, if the number 5 is entered in the numbering line field 46 of the transfer table in Fig. 6, then the situation is that the knitting machine 13 must use the number 5 for the transfer. In this case, it is a process of rewriting so that the line 8-1 is vacant before that.

It is also possible to change the track by overwriting the generated replacement plan. At this time, the on-rail status at the start time of the data to be overwritten is displayed on the on-rail map / diagram. This makes it easier to find a vacant line and improves work efficiency. In addition, it is possible to highlight the places that need to be changed in accordance with the data change by overwriting. Further, it is also possible to automatically change the plans of all the knittings according to the data change by overwriting by using the above-mentioned automatic plan creation processing or the like. As a result, it is possible to avoid forgetting to change the data of another organization due to the data change, and to save the trouble of inputting.

The above input and overwrite (change) of the replacement plan can be directly input to the on-rail map / diagram 36 in addition to the input to the transit table. Rail map In, the time line is set to the desired time, or the time is specified by directly inputting the time, and the composition number is specified while the composition is placed by pointing on the track on the location map. To specify the composition number, a separate screen may be displayed and entered, or a pull-down menu may be displayed at the location of the composition so that it can be selected. Further, when entering the entry or exit data at that time, it is also possible to drag the formation between the track and the entry / exit line using a pointing device. Also, in the diagram, after the time line is set to the desired time or the time is specified by directly inputting the time, the knitting operation is performed by placing the knitting on the desired line, and the knitting number is assigned in the same manner as above. Let me specify. In addition, when entering entry / exit data, it is possible to use a pointing device to drag the formation between the track and the entry / exit line. In Fig. 1, the existence of the composition scheduled to enter is indicated by a rectangle 45, but when the composition is dragged to a predetermined line using a pointing device in this way, the replacement plan can be visually visually simplified. Can be entered.

In addition, when a row or a part of a row of the composition 7 is specified in the inspection and cleaning schedule 35, the row in which the composition 7 is involved in the relocation table 28 should be highlighted and specified. Is also possible. At the same time, the status of the train at the earliest time in the composition 7 plan (6:57 in Figs. 1 and 2) is displayed in the train map of the train track and the diagram of the rail map 36. The time line is displayed at 6:57 on the diagram. This makes it possible to visually grasp the status of the track at that time, and when changing the track where cleaning of the knitting 7 is performed, the user can check at a glance which track is vacant and change the inspection and cleaning schedule. Work efficiency is improved.

By the way, an example of vehicle replacement basic data 5 and vehicle replacement plan data 7 Examples of the above are shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, respectively. As shown in Fig. 7, there are four types of basic vehicle replacement data 5: on-premise wiring data, main line schedule data, vehicle data, inspection, repair, and cleaning data. Hereinafter, these four types of data will be described in order.

The on-premise wiring data is data for drawing the track laid at the depot on a location map. The on-premise wiring data consists of the track number 701, the X coordinate of endpoint 1 702, the Y coordinate of endpoint 1 703, the X coordinate of endpoint 2 704, the Y coordinate of endpoint 2 705, and the line name It consists of 706. The orbit number 7001 is a unique number given to the line segment when the orbit of the depot is drawn as a set of line segments. The X coordinate 702 of the end point 1 is the X coordinate of one end point of the orbital line segment represented by the orbit number 701 (hereinafter, this line segment). The Y coordinate 703 of the end point 1 is the Y coordinate of the end point of the line segment. The X coordinate 704 of the end point 2 is the X coordinate of the other end point of the line segment. The Y coordinate 705 of the end point 2 is the Y coordinate of the end point of the line segment. The line name 706 is a line name when the line segment is a line. If the line segment is not a number line, it is indicated by "1".

The main line timetable data is a diagram that is an excerpt of the part of the operation plan of the main line relating to entering and exiting the depot, that is, entering and exiting wards. The main line timetable data consists of the date on which the timetable is scheduled to run 721, time 722, train number 723, train number 7224, and content 7225. Schedule date 721 is the date when the plan indicated by the main route schedule data is implemented. Time 7222 is the time when the operation plan exists. The composition number 7 23 is the number of the composition that is the target of the plan. Train number 724 is the number assigned to the train set when traveling on the main line in the plan. Content 7 2 5 is the distinction between entry and exit. According to the main line timetable data in Fig. 7, it can be seen that at time 4:58, the formation A01 leaves the depot with the train number 501M. The vehicle data indicates the vehicle configuration of each formation. Vehicle data is the formation number

7 4 1, consisting of the vehicle numbers 7 42 that make up the formation. The composition number 7 41 is the number assigned to the composition. The vehicle number 742 is the number of the vehicle constituting the formation, which is described by the number of vehicles constituting the formation. According to the vehicle data shown in Fig. 7, for example, formation A01 is the first vehicle with the first vehicle, the second vehicle with the second vehicle, the third vehicle with the third vehicle, and the fourth vehicle. It can be seen that the train is a 4-car train composed of vehicles No. 04.

Inspection / repair / cleaning data indicates the daily inspection of each vehicle ■ Repair / cleaning schedule. The inspection / repair / cleaning data consists of the target date 761, vehicle number 762, inspection 763, repair 764, and cleaning 765. The target date 761 is the day when inspection, repair, and cleaning are performed. The vehicle number 762 is a number unique to the vehicle. Inspection 763 is scheduled to inspect the vehicle. Repair 7 6 4 is scheduled to repair the vehicle. Cleaning 765 is scheduled to clean the vehicle. According to the inspection, repair and cleaning data shown in Fig. 7, on April 23, the vehicle with the vehicle number of 01 has a plan to undergo a work inspection, has no plan for repair, and undergoes daily cleaning. You can see that there is a plan.

On the other hand, as shown in Fig. 8, there are two types of vehicle replacement plan data: replacement plan data and on-rail status data. Examples of the information held by the exchange plan data include the planned date of 800, a number of 801, a start time of 800, an organization number

There are 803, train number 804, originating line 805, destination line 806, and content 807. These numbers 8 01, start time 80 2, train number 80 3, train number 800 4, departure line 800 5, arrival line 800 6, and the contents 8 07 are the inversion charts in Fig. 1, respectively.

The on-rail status data is reflected on the on-rail diagram-diagram diagram 36.

By the way, the Potang counties in the turning table 28 in FIG. 1 may be collected and displayed on another dedicated sub-screen. By displaying it on a separate sub-screen, the position of the transposition table 28 as a screen for creating and correcting a plan becomes clear. Figure 9 shows a display example when Potan County is displayed on another sub-screen. FIG. 9 shows an example in which the on-rail map and the diagram are divided and displayed on separate child screens. In Fig. 9, menu 901 is prepared. In menu 901, the operation confirmation button, save button, plan automatic creation button, inspection and repair, cleaning schedule confirmation button, and redo that were in the turntable 28 are shown. A button, form output button, and end button are provided. The time, knitting number, and column number in the transfer table in FIG. 9 correspond to the start time, train number, and train number in the transfer table 28 in FIG. 1, respectively. Also, the trajectory from line 1 to entry and exit is highlighted with a bold line on the location map, but this is to clearly show that the scheduled AO 1 will move to the entry and exit, and will always be highlighted. do not have to. In addition, the vehicles are displayed as white squares, and the vehicles that are subject to the replacement plan at 4:58 am 9

The result A01 is highlighted with a bold line. In the diagram in Fig. 9, the horizontal bar line indicating the detention status is displayed as a white square, and the horizontal bar line of knitting A01 subject to the replacement plan at 4:58 Is highlighted by blacking it out. In addition, instead of the rectangles 45 in Fig. 1, diagonal lines 902 are displayed in the entry and exit wards, indicating that there are knittings that have plans to enter and depart from the diagonal lines 902. I have.

FIG. 10 shows a menu 1001 as another example of the menu 900 shown in FIG. Menu 100 in Fig. 10 is composed of the following buttons: Transposition table button 1 0 0 2, Location map button 1 0 0 3, Diamond diagram button 1 0 0 4, Report output button 1 0 0 5, End button 1 0 0 6.

Can effectively use the space on the display screen, such as to improve operability and visibility. The form output button 1005 outputs a form in response to an instruction from the pointing device. The end button 1006 ends the operation of this apparatus in response to an instruction from the pointing device.

By the way, the presence or absence of the inconsistency described above can also be determined by the following procedure. There are two examples of inconsistency: One is an example in which the departure of a vehicle on the back track is blocked. The other is an example of blocking a vehicle from entering the back track. The former example will be described with reference to FIG. As a first step, vehicle A enters line 2 at the back of the train The As a second step, vehicle B enters line 1 in front. If vehicle A plans to depart from line 2 in this situation, vehicle B on line 1 will prevent vehicle A on line 2 from departing. Vehicle A cannot depart, even though the plan states that vehicle A will depart. This is the contradiction of the plan. The latter example will be described with reference to FIG. Suppose that a plan is made in step 1 for vehicle B to enter line 1 just before vehicle B is lined up in a column. After that, it is assumed that there is a plan for car A to enter the second track at the back in step 2. At this time, the vehicle B impedes the entry of the vehicle A. In other words, vehicle A cannot enter line 2 even though vehicle A has a plan to enter line 2. This is also a contradiction in the plan.

Hereinafter, the inconsistency determination procedure will be described. First, the former example will be described with reference to the processing flow shown in FIG. In the former example, there are two timings to determine the presence or absence of a contradiction. One is when a plan to replace vehicle A with line 2 is made, and the other is when a plan is made to replace vehicle B with line 1. First, the process of determining whether there is any inconsistency at the time when a plan for replacing vehicle A with the second track is made will be described.

Step 1 1 1 2: Start 1

If a plan is made to replace the vehicle with a track deeper than the tandem track, the process starts from start 1 and proceeds to step 1105.

Step 1 105: Search for the next replacement plan for vehicle A

Based on the composition number, a search is made for a next replacement plan of the vehicle that has entered the back track, and the process proceeds to step 1106.

Step 1 106: Do you have a plan?

If there is a plan to replace the vehicle that has been inserted into the back track, go to step 1107; otherwise, go to step 110. 2

Step 1 10 7: Acquire on-line status data

The on-line status data at the time of replacing the vehicle that has entered the back track is acquired, and the process proceeds to step 1108.

Step 1 1 08: Is there a train on the line in front?

If the vehicle is on the line in front of the tandem line, go to step 110. If not, go to step 111.

Step 1 109: Inconsistent

Since the vehicle in the back is blocked by the vehicle in front, it is determined that there is a contradiction in the plan, and the process proceeds to step 1 1 1 1.

Step 1 1 1 0: Judge that there is no contradiction

Since the vehicle at the back can depart, it is determined that there is no contradiction in the plan, and the process proceeds to step 1111.

Step 1 1 1 1: End

The process ends.

Next, in FIG. 12, a description will be given of a process of determining a contradiction when a plan for replacing the vehicle B with the track 1 is made.

Step 1 101: Start 2

If a plan is made to replace the vehicle with a line before the tandem line, the process starts from start 2 and proceeds to step 1102.

Step 1 102: Is there a vehicle on the back track?

If the vehicle is on the track behind the tandem track, go to step 1104. If not, go to step 111.

Step 1 104: Set the vehicle as A and store the formation number

The composition number of the vehicle on the back track is stored from the on-line status data, and the process proceeds to step 1105. Hereinafter, processing is performed based on the flow described above. W 200

twenty two

Next, the latter example will be described. In the latter example, it is judged that there is no contradiction if there is a plan to turn another car on line 2 before the vehicle on the previous track turns to another line.
