Mold electronic medical record system

The present invention relates to a mold electronic medical record system used for management of defect information of molds such as resin molds, press working, casting, and forging.

Information such as processing defects occurring during the mold manufacturing process, defects during mold assembly, and mold correction due to defects during molding trials are fed back to the design and maintenance of the mold to improve the quality of the mold. Can be increased. Therefore, such defect information is very valuable.

However, in many cases, such defect information has been left without being recorded. As a result, similar problems occurred repeatedly each time, and improvement did not progress at all.

In order to solve such problems, the present inventors have developed a mold electronic medical chart system that can easily and accurately collect mold defect information and can easily browse the history of mold defects. (See Patent Document 1).

The mold electronic medical record system according to Patent Document 1 is a system using a terminal such as a tablet for collecting information and a database for managing information. First, at a site where a mold manufacturing defect or a try defect occurs, an operator uses a tablet to image a QR code (registered trademark) provided on the mold and individually identify the mold. Next, a malfunction event is recorded by using a still image or moving image recording function and a voice recording function of the tablet, a malfunction classification item is pulled down from the screen, and the malfunction information is transmitted to the database online. In the database, defect information transmitted from the tablet is accumulated in time series for each mold.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a configuration of a mold electronic medical record system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 1, the mold electronic medical chart system 1 includes a database 10 and a tablet 20 as a terminal.

The database (database server) 10 includes a database main body 11 in which functional modules necessary for collecting defect information relating to a mold, defect information, an access right table, and the like are stored, a control unit 12, and a communication unit 13. Have.

Typical function modules include “launch registration”, “work checklist”, “data download”, “die registration”, and the like. The functional module is used when an electronic medical record application is executed on the tablet 20.

“Launch registration” is a function for registering defect information related to molds.

The “work checklist” is a checklist of important matters that must be confirmed in a specific scene, and here is a function for recording a specific scene and a confirmation result at that time. For example, immediately after the mold assembly, the operator confirms whether the mold specifications are satisfied according to the check list, and records the confirmed result. In the actual product check, the worker confirms whether there is any abnormality in the product during the first try (testing) according to the check list, and records the confirmed result.

“Data download” is a function to download past defect information etc. for the mold.

“Mold registration” is a function for registering a new mold in the database 10.

The database 10 stores a table for restricting the types of functional modules that can be downloaded to the tablet 20 according to the authority of the user.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of such an access right table.

As shown in FIG. 2, the function module is typically used according to the “manager”, “factory manager”, “manufacturer in charge”, “manufacturer”, and “inspector” who are the roles of the workers. Among certain “launch registration”, “work checklist”, “data download”, and “die registration”, the ones that are permitted to be downloaded are marked (● in the figure). Such an access right table check input may be typically made by an administrator.

The tablet 20 includes a camera 21, a microphone 22, a touch pad display unit 23, a storage unit 24, a control unit 25, and a WiFi communication unit 26.

The camera 21 is used, for example, to photograph a defective part of the mold 40 as a still image or a moving image. The camera 21 is used for recognizing the QR code (registered trademark) 42 attached to the mold 40 and the employee ID card 41.

The microphone 22 is used for inputting a comment by an operator's voice for a defective part of the mold 40 or the like.

The touch pad display unit 23 is typically used for pulling down a defect classification item or the like from the screen during execution of an electronic medical record application, in addition to various basic displays and inputs.

The storage unit 24 typically stores, in addition to various basic software and data, an electronic medical record application, a functional module downloaded from the database 10, and defect information.

The database 10 is typically connected to a wired in-house LAN 30. A WiFi router 31 is connected to the LAN 30. Data communication is performed between the database 10 and the tablet 20 via the LAN 30 and the WiFi router 31. Accordingly, the database 10 and the tablet 20 cannot perform data communication outside the communicable range of the WiFi router 31.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing an outline of defect information collection using the electronic medical record system 1 configured as described above.

The administrator grants an access right to the access right table (see FIG. 2) of the database 10 (step 301). The administrator assigns such authority using, for example, a tablet or a personal computer connected online to the in-house LAN 30.

Before making a business trip to a supplier such as an overseas company or a factory in Japan, the worker downloads the necessary function module from the database 10 to the tablet 20 online in the company, which is the communicable area of the WiFi router 31 (step 302). .

The worker collects and stores defect information related to the mold in an offline state using a tablet 20 at a supplier in overseas or a factory in Japan (step 303).

The worker returning from the business trip uploads the defect information collected and stored in step 303 from the tablet 20 to the database 10 online in the company (step 304). In the tablet 20, the uploaded defect information and function modules are deleted (step 305).

Hereinafter, the operation of the system in each step will be described.
<Step 301> (See FIGS. 4 and 5)
FIG. 4 is an operation flow for granting an access right in the access right table.

When the access request for the access right table is input from the predetermined input screen (step 401), the administrator tablet 20 transmits the request to the database 10 (step 402).

When the database 10 receives the request for the access right table (step 403), the database 10 transmits information that can display the access right table as shown in FIG. 2, for example, on the tablet 20 to the requested tablet 20 (step 404). .

When the administrator tablet 20 receives the information on the access right table from the database 10 (step 405), the administrator 20 displays the access right table as shown in FIG. 2 on the screen of the tablet 20 based on the information (step 406).

When a predetermined function module is selected on the access right table (step 407), the administrator tablet 20 displays a button “●” for the selected function module and transmits the selection information to the database 10. (Step 408).

When the database 10 receives the selection information transmitted from the administrator's tablet 20 (step 409), the database 10 rewrites the contents of the access right table based on the received information (step 410).

As described above, the administrator can grant the access right to the access right table (see FIG. 2) of the database 10.

FIG. 5 is an operation flow for granting an access right related to taking out data in the access right table.

When the access request for data take-out management of the access right table is input from the predetermined input screen (step 501), the administrator tablet 20 transmits the request to the database 10 (step 502).

When the database 10 receives a request relating to data take-out management of the access right table (step 503), the database 10 transmits information that can display, for example, the access right table shown in FIG. 6 on the tablet 20 to the requested tablet 20 (step 504). ).

When the administrator tablet 20 receives information on the access right table from the database 10 (step 505), the access right table as shown in FIG. 6 is displayed on the screen of the tablet 20 based on the information (step 506).

When the administrator's tablet 20 selects a predetermined mold for the predetermined tablet 20 of the operator on the access right table (step 507), the button for the selected mold is displayed as "●" and the database The selection information is transmitted to 10 (step 508). The administrator's tablet 20 can write predetermined information in the remarks column on this table and store the information in the database 10.

When the database 10 receives the selection information transmitted from the administrator's tablet 20 (step 509), the database 10 rewrites the contents of the access right table based on the received information (step 510).

As described above, the administrator can give the access right relating to the data take-out to the access right table (see FIG. 6) of the database 10.
<About Step 302>
FIG. 7 is an operation flow of the tablet 20 from login to activation of the on / offline mode.

When an electronic medical record application is launched on the tablet 20 of the worker (step 701), a login screen is displayed, and a QR code (registered trademark) 42 attached to the employee ID card 41 as information for identifying the worker is displayed. A message requesting input is displayed (step 702). Note that other methods other than QR code (registered trademark) may be used to identify the worker. For example, the worker may be identified by face recognition.

When the QR code (registered trademark) 42 is input to the tablet 20 (step 703), it is determined whether or not the online mode can be set (step 704). Typically, if the tablet 20 can perform data communication via the WiFi router 31, the tablet 20 determines that it is in the online mode.

The tablet 20 activates the online mode if it is determined in step 704 that the online mode can be established (step 705), and activates the offline mode if it is determined that the online mode cannot be established (step 706).

Fig. 8 shows the system operation flow when the online mode is activated.

When the online mode is activated (step 801), the tablet 20 determines whether there is defect information already stored in the storage unit 24 (step 802).

The tablet 20 is in a mode for downloading the functional module in step 302 when no defect information is stored in the storage unit 24.

The operator's tablet 20 inquires of the database 10 which functional module can be downloaded (step 803). At that time, the worker information is also transmitted.

Upon receiving the inquiry (step 804), the database 10 determines which functional modules can be downloaded by the worker based on FIG. 2 (step 805), and transmits the information to the tablet 20 (step 806).

The tablet 20 displays usable function modules on the screen based on the information (step 807).

When any one of the functional modules is selected by touching an object on the screen (step 808), the tablet 20 requests the database 10 to download the selected functional module (step 809).

When the database 10 receives a request for downloading a functional module from the tablet 20 (step 810), the database 10 downloads the functional module to the tablet 20 (step 811).

Tablet 20 receives the functional module from database 10 and ends the download (step 812).

In the “data download” download, past launch information, photo information, and work checklist associated with a mold are downloaded from the database 10 to the tablet 20 in a file format. In addition, when downloaded, the database 10 records when, who, which mold, which launch information, which photographic information, which work checklist information, and which tablet (IP address).
<About Step 303>
When the worker arrives at a supplier such as an overseas company or a factory in Japan, an electronic medical record application for the tablet 20 is launched.

That is, as shown in FIG. 7, when an electronic medical record application is launched on the tablet 20 of the worker (step 701), a login screen is displayed and attached to the employee ID card 41 as information for identifying the worker. A message requesting the input of the QR code (registered trademark) 42 is displayed (step 702).

When the QR code (registered trademark) 42 is input to the tablet 20 (step 703), it is determined whether or not the online mode can be set (step 704).

Offline mode is activated because online mode is not available at overseas suppliers and domestic factories.

Fig. 9 shows the system operation flow when starting offline mode.

The tablet 20 is activated in the offline mode (step 901), and records information about when and who logged in to the encrypted file based on the QR code (registered trademark) 42 or the like (step 902). The encrypted file is stored in the storage unit 24.

The tablet 20 displays the downloaded function module on the touchpad display unit 23 (step 903).

When any one of the functional modules is selected by touching an object on the screen (step 904), the tablet 20 starts up the selected functional module (step 905).

FIG. 10 is an operation flow when the function module of “launch registration” is started up among the function modules.

The tablet 20 displays a screen for instructing reading of the QR code (registered trademark) of the defective mold on the touch pad display unit 23 (step 1001).

When the QR code (registered trademark) is read (step 1002), the tablet 20 displays a screen for requesting a description of the failure status and the cause on the touch pad display unit 23 (step 1003).

When the tablet 20 describes the failure status and factors (step 1004), the tablet 20 displays a screen for requesting shooting of a failure occurrence photograph or video on the touch pad display unit 23 (step 1005).

When the tablet 20 takes a photograph or a movie of the failure occurrence state (step 1006), it registers the failure state and factors in the encrypted file in the storage unit 24 (step 1007).

Encrypted files include failure mold, event category, cause, location, comment, number of shots, photos / videos.

The tablet 20 records when and who registered the defect information in the encrypted file in the storage unit 24 (step 1008). An example of such defect information is shown in FIG.
<About Steps 304 and 305>
The worker returning from the business trip uploads defect information from the tablet 20 to the database 10 online in the company.

Here, since the worker has returned to the company, the online mode is activated. As shown in FIG. 8, when the online mode is activated in the tablet 20 (step 801), it is determined whether there is defect information already stored in the storage unit 24 (step 802).

Since the tablet 20 stores the defect information in the storage unit 24 in step 802, the tablet 20 enters a defect information upload mode (step 813). In this embodiment, when the operator of the tablet 20 starts up the electronic medical record application, if the trouble information is stored in the online mode and the tablet 20 is automatically operated without any particular operation by the operator. Thus, defect information is uploaded to the database 10.

Fig. 12 shows the operation flow in this upload mode.

The tablet 20 decrypts the encrypted file stored in the storage unit 24 (step 1201), and transmits the decrypted information to the database 10 online (step 1202).

As described above, by encrypting the information until immediately before the information is transmitted to the database 10 online, it is possible to reliably prevent the leakage of the information to the outside.

When the database 10 receives information from the tablet 20 (step 1203), the received decryption information is registered in the database main body 11 (step 1204). Is recorded (step 1205). The database 10 notifies the tablet 20 that the synchronization processing has been performed (step 1206).

When the tablet 20 is notified that the synchronization processing has been performed from the database 10 (step 1207), it deletes all the encrypted files stored in the storage unit 24 of the tablet 20 (step 1208). Thereby, the tablet 20 will be in the state which does not hold | maintain a functional module or malfunction information. Therefore, even when workers of various companies and departments are involved in one system, unnecessary defect information is not uploaded to the database 10, and one defect information on the system can be prevented. A plurality of different information does not exist, and only correct defect information exists on the system.

Thereafter, the tablet 20 displays available functions on the touch pad display unit 23 (step 1209).

In this way, in the mold electronic medical record system 1, the tablet 20 downloads the functional module from the database 10 via WiFi, and collects and stores defect information by the electronic medical record application using the functional application downloaded in the offline state. When communication between the database 10 and the tablet 20 via WiFi is possible, the defect information stored in the tablet 20 is transmitted from the tablet 20 to the database 10 via WiFi. Therefore, the system can be operated without depending on the communication environment.

Also, the tablet 20 is configured to download functional modules from the database 10, and to collect and store defect information using an electronic medical record application using the downloaded functional modules. Therefore, authority management for each function module can be performed, and it is possible to have a configuration in which an unprivileged person does not take out unnecessary function modules, thereby improving the security of the system. In addition, it is possible to manage information for each functional module, and it is possible to configure so that unnecessary defect information is not uploaded without permission. This makes it possible to manage and browse know-how and information according to authority.

Note that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and can be implemented in various forms. The scope of implementation is also within the scope of the technical idea of the present invention.

For example, in the above-described embodiment, a tablet is exemplified as a typical example of the terminal. However, a terminal such as a PC, a smartphone, or a dedicated terminal may be used.

In the above-described embodiment, WiFi is exemplified as a typical example of the communication path. However, other forms of wireless communication paths may be included.

Furthermore, in the above embodiment, it is assumed that the defect information is collected when the tablet is in an offline environment. However, even if the tablet is in an online environment, it is actively switched to offline to collect and save the defect information. You may comprise so that it may do.
