　図２は、この発明の実施の形態１における冷凍倉庫１００内の庫内温度センサ２１０の配置などについて説明する図である。実施の形態１の冷凍倉庫１００では、内部の空間について、幅方向、高さ方向および奥行き方向に複数に分けた区画１０１を形成している。図２では、冷凍倉庫１００を直方体とし、格子状に区画１０１を形成しているが、空間内における区画１０１の形成方法については、特に限定するものではない。冷凍倉庫１００内の棚、段などによって分け、区画１０１を形成するなどしてもよい。 FIG. 2 is a diagram for explaining the arrangement of the temperature sensor 210 in the freezer warehouse 100 according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. In the refrigerated warehouse 100 according to the first embodiment, the internal space is divided into a plurality of sections 101 in the width direction, the height direction, and the depth direction. In FIG. 2, the refrigerated warehouse 100 is a rectangular parallelepiped, and the sections 101 are formed in a lattice shape. However, the method for forming the sections 101 in the space is not particularly limited. It may be divided according to shelves, steps, etc. in the freezer warehouse 100 to form the section 101.
　実施の形態１では、冷凍倉庫１００内の複数の区画１０１に対し、各区画１０１に対応して庫内温度センサ２１０が配置される。したがって、冷凍倉庫１００には、幅方向、高さ方向および奥行き方向のそれぞれに、複数個の庫内温度センサ２１０が配置される。庫内温度センサ２１０は、冷凍倉庫１００の天井、側壁、棚などに配置される。 In Embodiment 1, an in-compartment temperature sensor 210 is arranged corresponding to each section 101 for a plurality of sections 101 in the freezer warehouse 100. Therefore, in the freezer warehouse 100, a plurality of internal temperature sensors 210 are arranged in each of the width direction, the height direction, and the depth direction. The internal temperature sensor 210 is arranged on the ceiling, side wall, shelf, etc. of the freezer warehouse 100.
　実施の形態１の冷凍倉庫１００では、三次元的に複数の庫内温度センサ２１０を配置し、庫内温度センサ２１０が、それぞれの位置における温度を検出する。このとき、柱、棚などの障害物による温度検出の死角がないように配置する。そして、冷凍倉庫１００内の空間における空気の温度分布を詳細に把握し、解析などを行えるようにする。 In the refrigerated warehouse 100 according to the first embodiment, a plurality of internal temperature sensors 210 are three-dimensionally arranged, and the internal temperature sensors 210 detect temperatures at the respective positions. At this time, it arrange | positions so that there may be no blind spot of temperature detection by obstructions, such as a pillar and a shelf. And the temperature distribution of the air in the space in the freezer warehouse 100 is grasped | ascertained in detail, and an analysis etc. can be performed now.
　図３は、この発明の実施の形態１に係る温度センサユニット２００の構成を示す図である。実施の形態１の温度センサユニット２００は、前述した庫内温度センサ２１０に加え、複数のユニット側表示装置２２０、ユニット側電源装置２３０およびユニット側計時装置２４０およびユニット側制御装置２５０を有している。 FIG. 3 is a diagram showing a configuration of the temperature sensor unit 200 according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. The temperature sensor unit 200 according to the first embodiment includes a plurality of unit side display devices 220, a unit side power supply device 230, a unit side timing device 240, and a unit side control device 250 in addition to the inside temperature sensor 210 described above. Yes.
　複数のユニット側表示装置２２０は、各庫内温度センサ２１０と共に設けられ、一体化している。ユニット側表示装置２２０は、ユニット側制御装置２５０から送られる信号に基づいて発光する発光表示装置である。たとえば、倉庫管理装置１から送られた指示に基づき、冷凍倉庫１００に搬入出する荷物を保管する区画１０１に対応するユニット側表示装置２２０を発光させ、荷物が保管された区画１０１を、作業員に知らせることができる。また、異常な温度を検出した庫内温度センサ２１０に対応するユニット側表示装置２２０を発光させ、温度の異常を知らせることができる。また、庫内温度センサ２１０およびユニット側表示装置２２０は、共通の電池を用いて動作している。冷凍倉庫１００内は、電池の消耗が激しい。ユニット側表示装置２２０は、電池が少なくなるなどして劣化すると、発光表示する光が弱くなり、光の強度が下がる。このため、ユニット側表示装置２２０が発光表示する光により、ユニット側電源装置２３０の劣化を報知することができる。このとき、ユニット側表示装置２２０は、発光色を変更するようにしてもよく、点滅表示を行ってもよい。 The plurality of unit-side display devices 220 are provided together with the internal temperature sensors 210 and integrated. The unit side display device 220 is a light emitting display device that emits light based on a signal sent from the unit side control device 250. For example, based on the instruction sent from the warehouse management apparatus 1, the unit side display device 220 corresponding to the section 101 for storing the luggage to be loaded into and unloaded from the refrigerated warehouse 100 is caused to emit light. Can let you know. Further, the unit-side display device 220 corresponding to the internal temperature sensor 210 that has detected the abnormal temperature can be caused to emit light to notify the temperature abnormality. Further, the internal temperature sensor 210 and the unit side display device 220 operate using a common battery. In the freezer warehouse 100, the battery is heavily consumed. When the unit-side display device 220 is deteriorated due to a decrease in the battery or the like, the light for light emission display is weakened and the light intensity is lowered. Therefore, the deterioration of the unit-side power supply device 230 can be notified by the light that the unit-side display device 220 emits and displays. At this time, the unit-side display device 220 may change the emission color or may perform blinking display.
　ここで、実施の形態１の送風ユニット９は、受光装置９１を有している。そこで、送風ユニット９は、受光により発光された方向を検出し、風を送るようにしてもよい。また、受光装置９１が検出する光に基づいて、後述する劣化予測部１７が、ユニット側電源装置２３０の劣化予測を行うようにしてもよい。また、ユニット側表示装置２２０は、紫外線を発光できるようにしてもよい。ユニット側表示装置２２０が、紫外線を発光することで、カビの発生を防止することができる。 Here, the blower unit 9 of the first embodiment has a light receiving device 91. Therefore, the blower unit 9 may detect the direction of light emission by light reception and send wind. Further, based on the light detected by the light receiving device 91, the deterioration predicting unit 17 described later may predict the deterioration of the unit-side power supply device 230. Further, the unit side display device 220 may emit ultraviolet light. The unit-side display device 220 emits ultraviolet rays, so that generation of mold can be prevented.
　実施の形態１のユニット側電源装置２３０は蓄電池である。冷凍倉庫１００内は、フォークリフト、作業員などの出入りがあるため、線の引き回しが制約される。蓄電池であれば、温度センサユニット２００を動作させる電源線を必要としないので、冷凍倉庫１００内の線を減らすことができる。また、ユニット側計時装置２４０は、時刻のデータを有している。時刻のデータは、庫内温度センサ２１０が検出した温度のデータと関連づけられる。また、温度センサユニット２００を定期的に起動するために用いられる。 The unit-side power supply device 230 of Embodiment 1 is a storage battery. In the freezer warehouse 100, forklifts, workers, and the like go in and out, so the wiring of the line is restricted. If it is a storage battery, since the power supply line which operates the temperature sensor unit 200 is not required, the line in the freezer warehouse 100 can be reduced. Moreover, the unit side time measuring device 240 has time data. The time data is associated with the temperature data detected by the internal temperature sensor 210. Further, it is used for periodically starting the temperature sensor unit 200.
　ユニット側制御装置２５０は、複数の庫内温度センサ２１０が検出した温度に係る信号を処理する。また、ユニット側制御装置２５０は、温度センサユニット２００全体を制御する。ユニット側制御装置２５０は、ユニット側信号送受信部２５１、ユニット側信号処理制御部２５２、ユニット側電源部２５３およびユニット側データ通信部２５４を有している。 The unit-side control device 250 processes signals related to temperatures detected by the plurality of internal temperature sensors 210. Further, the unit side control device 250 controls the entire temperature sensor unit 200. The unit-side control device 250 includes a unit-side signal transmission / reception unit 251, a unit-side signal processing control unit 252, a unit-side power supply unit 253, and a unit-side data communication unit 254.
　ユニット側信号送受信部２５１は、各庫内温度センサ２１０から送られる検出した温度に係る信号を受信する。また、ユニット側表示装置２２０に指示を含む信号を送信する。ユニット側信号処理制御部２５２は、受信した信号を温度のデータに変換する。このとき、ユニット側計時装置２４０から時刻のデータと関連づける。ユニット側電源部２５３は、ユニット側電源装置２３０からの電力供給を制御し、温度センサユニット２００および庫内温度センサ２１０の電源管理を行う。ユニット側電源部２５３は、ユニット側計時装置２４０の計時に基づいて、温度センサユニット２００を定期的に起動させ、冷凍倉庫１００内の温度を検出する。ユニット側データ通信部２５４は、ユニット側信号処理制御部２５２が処理して得られたデータを含む信号を、倉庫管理装置１に送る。ここで、ユニット側データ通信部２５４は、無線で倉庫管理装置１に信号を送る。このため、冷凍倉庫１００に通信線を敷設する必要がなく、冷凍倉庫１００内の線を減らすことができる。また、ここでは、ユニット側データ通信部２５４が、倉庫管理装置１にデータを送るものとして説明するが、これに限定するものではない。たとえば、冷凍倉庫１００のリモートコントローラ（図示せず）に送るようにしてもよい。 The unit-side signal transmission / reception unit 251 receives a signal related to the detected temperature sent from each internal temperature sensor 210. In addition, a signal including an instruction is transmitted to the unit side display device 220. The unit-side signal processing control unit 252 converts the received signal into temperature data. At this time, it is associated with time data from the unit-side timing device 240. The unit-side power supply unit 253 controls power supply from the unit-side power supply device 230 and performs power management of the temperature sensor unit 200 and the internal temperature sensor 210. The unit-side power supply unit 253 periodically activates the temperature sensor unit 200 based on the time measured by the unit-side timing device 240 and detects the temperature in the freezer warehouse 100. The unit-side data communication unit 254 sends a signal including data obtained by processing by the unit-side signal processing control unit 252 to the warehouse management device 1. Here, the unit-side data communication unit 254 sends a signal to the warehouse management device 1 wirelessly. For this reason, it is not necessary to lay a communication line in the freezer warehouse 100, and the line in the freezer warehouse 100 can be reduced. In addition, here, the unit-side data communication unit 254 is described as transmitting data to the warehouse management apparatus 1, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, it may be sent to a remote controller (not shown) of the freezer warehouse 100.
　図４は、この発明の実施の形態１に係る倉庫管理装置１の構成を示す図である。次に、倉庫管理装置１について説明する。倉庫管理装置１は、冷凍倉庫１００の管理を行う装置である。倉庫管理装置１は、ここでは、主として、冷凍倉庫１００内の温度に関する管理を行う。 FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a configuration of the warehouse management apparatus 1 according to the first embodiment of the present invention. Next, the warehouse management apparatus 1 will be described. The warehouse management device 1 is a device that manages the refrigerated warehouse 100. Here, the warehouse management apparatus 1 mainly performs management related to the temperature in the freezer warehouse 100.
　図４に示すように、倉庫管理装置１は、管理側制御装置１０、管理側通信装置２０、管理側入力装置３０、管理側表示装置４０、管理側記憶装置５０および管理側計時装置６０を有している。 As shown in FIG. 4, the warehouse management apparatus 1 includes a management-side control device 10, a management-side communication device 20, a management-side input device 30, a management-side display device 40, a management-side storage device 50, and a management-side timing device 60. doing.
　管理側通信装置２０は、公衆通信回線４００と管理側制御装置１０との間における信号通信のインターフェースとなる。管理側通信装置２０は、外部の機器から送られた信号を受信し、管理側制御装置１０が処理を行うデータなどを抽出する。また、管理側制御装置１０が処理したデータを信号に含めて、公衆通信回線４００を介して、集中倉庫管理装置５００に送る。 The management communication device 20 serves as an interface for signal communication between the public communication line 400 and the management control device 10. The management communication device 20 receives a signal transmitted from an external device, and extracts data and the like that the management control device 10 performs processing. Further, the data processed by the management-side control device 10 is included in the signal and sent to the centralized warehouse management device 500 via the public communication line 400.
　また、管理側入力装置３０は、使用者が入力する指示、設定などのデータを入力信号として管理側制御装置１０に送信する。また、管理側表示装置４０は、管理側制御装置１０から送信される表示信号に基づいて、使用者に対する表示を行う。 The management-side input device 30 transmits data such as instructions and settings input by the user to the management-side control device 10 as input signals. Further, the management-side display device 40 performs display for the user based on a display signal transmitted from the management-side control device 10.
　管理側記憶装置５０は、管理側通信装置２０が受信した信号に含まれるデータ、管理側入力装置３０に入力された設定に関するデータなど、外部からのデータを含め、管理側制御装置１０が処理を行うために必要となる各種データを、一時的または長期的に記憶する。また、管理側制御装置１０が演算などの処理を行って得られたデータについても、一時的または長期的に記憶する。管理側計時装置６０は、管理側制御装置１０が演算、判定などの処理を行う際に必要となる計時を行う。 The management-side storage device 50 performs processing by the management-side control device 10 including data from the outside such as data included in the signal received by the management-side communication device 20 and data related to settings input to the management-side input device 30. Various kinds of data necessary for performing are temporarily or long-term stored. Further, data obtained by the management-side control device 10 performing processing such as computation is also stored temporarily or for a long period of time. The management-side timing device 60 performs timing required when the management-side control device 10 performs processing such as calculation and determination.
　管理側制御装置１０は、倉庫内温度判定部１１、価値判断部１２、機器制御部１３、荷物判定部１４、保管決定部１５、課金決定部１６および劣化予測部１７を有している。 The management-side control device 10 includes a warehouse temperature determination unit 11, a value determination unit 12, a device control unit 13, a package determination unit 14, a storage determination unit 15, a charge determination unit 16, and a deterioration prediction unit 17.
　倉庫内温度判定部１１は、冷凍倉庫１００内に設置された庫内温度センサ２１０の検出に係る温度の判定を行う。価値判断部１２は、冷凍倉庫１００内の区画１０１について、庫内温度センサ２１０の検出に係る温度に基づいて区画価値を判断する。ここで、区画価値とは、区画１０１に対して、所定の基準に基づいて定められた値打ち、等級、値段などの価値である。ここでは、区画１０１の温度に基づいて価値が定められているものとする。区画価値における基準については、特に限定するものではない。たとえば、前述したように、冷凍倉庫１００内は、温度ムラが大きい。そこで、区画１０１に対して設定された目標温度に対する温度変化が小さいほど、区画価値が高いものとすることができる。また、空調冷熱機器４の停止などによる温度変化があったときに、目標温度へ戻る時間が短く、復旧がはやいなど、荷物に対する保護が厚い区画１０１について、区画価値が高いものとすることができる。 The warehouse temperature determination unit 11 determines the temperature related to the detection of the warehouse temperature sensor 210 installed in the freezer warehouse 100. The value judging unit 12 judges the section value of the section 101 in the refrigerated warehouse 100 based on the temperature related to the detection by the internal temperature sensor 210. Here, the section value is a value such as a price, a grade, and a price determined for the section 101 based on a predetermined standard. Here, the value is determined based on the temperature of the section 101. There is no particular limitation on the criteria for the parcel value. For example, as described above, the temperature unevenness is large in the freezer warehouse 100. Therefore, the smaller the temperature change with respect to the target temperature set for the section 101, the higher the section value. Further, when there is a temperature change due to the stop of the air-conditioning / refrigeration equipment 4 or the like, it is possible to make the section value high for the section 101 that is thickly protected against luggage such as a short time for returning to the target temperature and quick recovery. .

However, the present invention is not limited to this, and each device may be configured by a dedicated device (hardware).
　図５は、この発明の実施の形態１に係る管理側制御装置１０が行う処理を説明する図である。ここでは、価値判断部１２が、区画価値を判断する処理の例を説明する。価値判断部１２は、設定期間における倉庫内温度判定部１１が判定した区画１０１の温度のデータを取得する（ステップＳ１）。ここで、取得するデータについては、冷凍倉庫１００内の空気が安定しているときのデータが多い方が望ましい。 FIG. 5 is a diagram for explaining processing performed by the management-side control device 10 according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. Here, an example of processing in which the value determination unit 12 determines the partition value will be described. The value determination unit 12 acquires temperature data of the section 101 determined by the warehouse temperature determination unit 11 in the set period (step S1). Here, as for the data to be acquired, it is desirable that there is a lot of data when the air in the freezer warehouse 100 is stable.
　価値判断部１２は、取得した温度のデータから、最高温度と最低温度とを抽出する（ステップＳ２）。そして、価値判断部１２は、最高温度および最低温度が、区画１０１に設定された目標温度±１［℃］に含まれているかどうかを判定する（ステップＳ３）。価値判断部１２は、最高温度および最低温度が、目標温度±１［℃］に含まれていると判定すると、区画１０１が最も区画価値が高い一等地であると判断し（ステップＳ４）、処理を終了する。 The value determination unit 12 extracts the maximum temperature and the minimum temperature from the acquired temperature data (step S2). Then, the value determination unit 12 determines whether or not the maximum temperature and the minimum temperature are included in the target temperature ± 1 [° C.] set in the section 101 (step S3). If the value determination unit 12 determines that the maximum temperature and the minimum temperature are included in the target temperature ± 1 [° C.], the value determination unit 12 determines that the partition 101 is the primary land with the highest partition value (step S4). The process ends.
　一方、価値判断部１２は、最高温度および最低温度が、目標温度±１［℃］に含まれていないと判定すると、目標温度±５［℃］に含まれているかどうかを判定する（ステップＳ５）。価値判断部１２は、最高温度および最低温度が、目標温度±５［℃］に含まれていると判定すると、区画１０１が二等地であると判断し（ステップＳ６）、処理を終了する。そして、価値判断部１２は、最高温度および最低温度が、目標温度±５［℃］に含まれていないと判定すると、区画１０１が三等地であると判断し（ステップＳ７）、処理を終了する。 On the other hand, if it is determined that the maximum temperature and the minimum temperature are not included in the target temperature ± 1 [° C.], the value determination unit 12 determines whether the target temperature ± 5 [° C.] is included (step S5). ). If the value determination unit 12 determines that the maximum temperature and the minimum temperature are included in the target temperature ± 5 [° C.], the value determination unit 12 determines that the section 101 is a second place (step S6), and ends the process. When the value determination unit 12 determines that the maximum temperature and the minimum temperature are not included in the target temperature ± 5 [° C.], the value determination unit 12 determines that the section 101 is a third place (step S7) and ends the process. To do.
　以上のように、実施の形態１の倉庫管理装置１によれば、冷凍倉庫１００内の空間を複数の区画１０１に分けるようにした。そして、管理側制御装置１０の価値判断部１２が、庫内温度センサ２１０の検出に係る温度に基づいて、区画１０１の区画価値を判断する価値判断部１２を有するようにした。このため、冷凍倉庫１００内を区画１０１毎に価値付けを行うことができ、区画価値に基づいた温度管理を行うことができる。 As described above, according to the warehouse management device 1 of the first embodiment, the space in the freezer warehouse 100 is divided into a plurality of sections 101.

FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a configuration of the central warehouse management apparatus 500 in the warehouse management system 1000 according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention. In the second embodiment, analysis of data related to warehouse management of the frozen warehouse 100 performed by the centralized warehouse management apparatus 500 will be described. The central warehouse management device 500 performs analysis, so that the situation of each freezer warehouse 100 can be grasped and suggestions for improvement can be made. As shown in FIG. 6, the central warehouse management apparatus 500 includes a data storage device 510, an analysis control device 520, and an analysis side communication device 530.
　データ記憶装置５１０は、前述したように、倉庫管理に係るデータなどを記憶する。また、解析側通信装置５３０は、公衆通信回線４００と解析制御装置５２０との間における信号通信のインターフェースとなる。また、解析制御装置５２０が処理したデータを信号に含めて、公衆通信回線４００を介して、各倉庫管理装置１に送ることができる。 As described above, the data storage device 510 stores data related to warehouse management. The analysis-side communication apparatus 530 serves as an interface for signal communication between the public communication line 400 and the analysis control apparatus 520. Further, the data processed by the analysis control device 520 can be included in the signal and sent to each warehouse management device 1 via the public communication line 400.
　実施の形態２の集中倉庫管理装置５００の解析制御装置５２０は、冷却能力判定部５２１、運営状況判定部５２２、入替判定部５２３および集中側劣化予測部５２４を有している。冷却能力判定部５２１は、ある冷凍倉庫１００について、他の冷凍倉庫１００における倉庫管理に係るデータと比較などして、空調冷熱機器４の冷却能力に関する判定を行う。また、運営状況判定部５２２は、ある冷凍倉庫１００について、他の冷凍倉庫１００における倉庫管理に係るデータと比較などして、運営状況を判定する。さらに、入替判定部５２３は、冷凍倉庫１００内の空調冷熱機器４の入れ替えについて判定処理を行う。また、集中側劣化予測部５２４は、倉庫管理装置１の管理側制御装置１０が有する劣化予測部１７と同様に、ユニット側電源装置２３０の劣化を予測する。 The analysis control device 520 of the centralized warehouse management device 500 according to the second embodiment includes a cooling capacity determination unit 521, an operation status determination unit 522, a replacement determination unit 523, and a concentrated side deterioration prediction unit 524. The cooling capacity determination unit 521 determines a cooling capacity of the air-conditioning cooling / heating device 4 with respect to a certain frozen warehouse 100 by comparing with data related to warehouse management in another frozen warehouse 100. Further, the operation status determination unit 522 determines the operation status of a certain frozen warehouse 100 by comparing it with data related to warehouse management in another frozen warehouse 100. Furthermore, the replacement determination unit 523 performs a determination process for replacement of the air-conditioning cooling / heating device 4 in the freezer warehouse 100. Further, the concentration side deterioration prediction unit 524 predicts the deterioration of the unit side power supply device 230 in the same manner as the deterioration prediction unit 17 included in the management side control device 10 of the warehouse management device 1.
　図７は、この発明の実施の形態２に係るデータ記憶装置５１０に記憶された倉庫管理に係るデータの一例を示す図である。図７では、４カ所の冷凍倉庫１００（冷凍倉庫１００Ａ～冷凍倉庫１００Ｄ）におけるデータが示されている。ここで、実施の形態２では、冷凍倉庫１００内の冷却空間容積、消費電力量、温度安定度、冷却能力、空調冷熱機器４の台数、空調冷熱機器４の型名および製造年、扉開閉回数、設定温度並びに外気平均温度が、パラメータとして示されている。 FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of data relating to warehouse management stored in the data storage device 510 according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention. In FIG. 7, data in four frozen warehouses 100 (refrigerated warehouse 100A to frozen warehouse 100D) are shown. Here, in Embodiment 2, the cooling space volume in the refrigeration warehouse 100, the amount of power consumption, the temperature stability, the cooling capacity, the number of the air-conditioning / cooling devices 4, the model name and the manufacturing year of the air-conditioning / cooling devices 4, and the number of times the door is opened and closed The set temperature and the outside air average temperature are shown as parameters.
　次に、倉庫管理に係るデータに基づいて、解析制御装置５２０が行う解析および提案処理について説明する。ここで、解析制御装置５２０が行う処理は、一例である。解析制御装置５２０の冷却能力判定部５２１は、データ記憶装置５１０に記憶されたデータに基づいて、各冷凍倉庫１００のデータを比較する。たとえば、冷却能力判定部５２１が、図７に示す冷凍倉庫１００Ａ～冷凍倉庫１００Ｄのデータを比較することで、冷凍倉庫１００Ａは、他の冷凍倉庫１００と比較して、単位容積当たりの消費電力が大きく、かつ、庫内の温度安定度が悪いと判定する。そこで、温度が安定する区画１０１を多くし、冷凍倉庫１００全体の区画価値を上げるような提案を行うことができる。 Next, analysis and proposal processing performed by the analysis control device 520 based on data related to warehouse management will be described. Here, the processing performed by the analysis control apparatus 520 is an example. The cooling capacity determination unit 521 of the analysis control device 520 compares the data of each freezer warehouse 100 based on the data stored in the data storage device 510. For example, the cooling capacity determination unit 521 compares the data of the freezing warehouse 100A to the freezing warehouse 100D shown in FIG. 7, so that the freezing warehouse 100A has a power consumption per unit volume as compared with the other freezing warehouses 100. It is determined that the temperature is large and the temperature stability in the storage is poor. Therefore, it is possible to make a proposal for increasing the section value of the entire freezer warehouse 100 by increasing the number of sections 101 in which the temperature is stable.
　また、たとえば、冷却能力判定部５２１が、図７に示す冷凍倉庫１００Ａ～冷凍倉庫１００Ｄのデータを比較することで、冷凍倉庫１００Ａは、設置されている空調冷熱機器４の台数が少なく、単位容積あたりの冷却能力が低いと判定する。そこで、単位容積当たりの冷却能力を大きくするまたは空調冷熱機器４の台数を増加させるように提案を行うことができる。単位容積当たりの冷却能力および空調冷熱機器４を適切な台数とすることで、効率が向上する。 Further, for example, the cooling capacity determination unit 521 compares the data of the freezing warehouse 100A to the freezing warehouse 100D shown in FIG. 7, so that the freezing warehouse 100A has a small number of installed air-conditioning / cooling devices 4 and a unit volume. It is determined that the cooling capacity per unit is low. Therefore, it is possible to make a proposal to increase the cooling capacity per unit volume or to increase the number of the air conditioning / cooling devices 4. Efficiency is improved by setting the cooling capacity per unit volume and the air conditioning cooling / heating device 4 to an appropriate number.
　ここで、たとえば、外気平均温度、設定温度などの前提条件が異なるときは、データの補正を行ってから、冷凍倉庫１００間の比較を行うようにするとよい。 Here, for example, when the preconditions such as the outside air average temperature and the set temperature are different, it is preferable to perform the comparison between the refrigerated warehouses 100 after correcting the data.
　解析制御装置５２０の運営状況判定部５２２についても、データ記憶装置５１０に記憶されたデータに基づいて、各冷凍倉庫１００のデータを比較する。運営状況判定部５２２が、図７に示す冷凍倉庫１００Ａ～冷凍倉庫１００Ｄのデータを比較することで、冷凍倉庫１００Ａは、扉開閉回数が多いと判定する。そこで、他の冷凍倉庫１００の運営（搬入搬出スケジュールなど）を参考にするような提案を行うことができる。 The operation status determination unit 522 of the analysis control device 520 also compares the data of each freezer warehouse 100 based on the data stored in the data storage device 510. The operation status determination unit 522 compares the data of the frozen warehouse 100A to the frozen warehouse 100D shown in FIG. Therefore, it is possible to make a proposal that refers to the operation (such as a carry-in / out schedule) of another refrigerated warehouse 100.
　解析制御装置５２０の入替判定部５２３は、データ記憶装置５１０に記憶されたデータに基づいて、各冷凍倉庫１００のデータを比較する。たとえば、入替判定部５２３は、図７に示すデータを比較し、冷凍倉庫１００Ａは、冷凍倉庫１００Ｂ～冷凍倉庫１００Ｄに比べて、製造年度が古い空調冷熱機器４が設置されていると判定する。そこで、製造年度が新しい空調冷熱機器４への入れ替えを提案することができる。 The replacement determination unit 523 of the analysis control device 520 compares the data of each freezer warehouse 100 based on the data stored in the data storage device 510. For example, the replacement determination unit 523 compares the data shown in FIG. 7 and determines that the refrigerated warehouse 100A has the air-conditioning / refrigeration equipment 4 having an older manufacturing year than the refrigerated warehouse 100B to the frozen warehouse 100D. Therefore, it is possible to propose replacement with an air conditioning / cooling device 4 having a new manufacturing year.
　解析制御装置５２０の集中側劣化予測部５２４は、データ記憶装置５１０に記憶されたユニット側電源装置２３０の劣化に係るデータを比較し、冷凍倉庫１００に設置されたユニット側電源装置２３０の劣化予測を行う。集中側劣化予測部５２４は、ユニット側電源装置２３０が劣化するまでに経過した時間と、庫内温度センサ２１０が検出した温度と、を関連付けて劣化予測を行うとよい。ユニット側電源装置２３０の蓄電池の劣化は、温度と相関があるためである。これにより、他の冷凍倉庫１００の庫内温度センサ２１０のデータとも比較して、劣化予測を高精度に行うことができる。 The concentration side deterioration prediction unit 524 of the analysis control device 520 compares the data related to the deterioration of the unit side power supply device 230 stored in the data storage device 510 and predicts the deterioration of the unit side power supply device 230 installed in the freezer warehouse 100. I do. The concentration side deterioration prediction unit 524 may perform the deterioration prediction by associating the time elapsed until the unit side power supply device 230 is deteriorated with the temperature detected by the internal temperature sensor 210. This is because the deterioration of the storage battery of the unit-side power supply device 230 has a correlation with the temperature. Thereby, compared with the data of the internal temperature sensor 210 of the other freezing warehouse 100, deterioration prediction can be performed with high accuracy.
　ここでは、集中倉庫管理装置５００は、各冷凍倉庫１００でのデータを比較して、倉庫全体の解析を行ったが、これに限定するものではない。集中倉庫管理装置５００は、区画１０１毎のデータに基づいて解析を行うようにしてもよい。そして、区画１０１単位で解析を行うことで、区画１０１単位で改善の提案を行うことができる。たとえば、ある区画１０１について、冷凍倉庫１００内の区画１０１の位置、区画１０１に対応する空調冷熱機器４に関するデータなどを比較して、解析を行う。そして、解析に基づく提案を行うことができる。 Here, the centralized warehouse management apparatus 500 compares the data in each freezer warehouse 100 and analyzes the entire warehouse, but the invention is not limited to this. The centralized warehouse management apparatus 500 may perform analysis based on data for each section 101. Then, by performing analysis in units of sections 101, improvement proposals can be made in units of sections 101. For example, a certain section 101 is analyzed by comparing the position of the section 101 in the refrigeration warehouse 100, data on the air-conditioning / cooling apparatus 4 corresponding to the section 101, and the like. And the proposal based on an analysis can be performed.
　以上のように、実施の形態２の倉庫管理システム１０００によれば、集中倉庫管理装置５００の解析制御装置５２０は、管理対象となる複数の冷凍倉庫１００間の倉庫管理に係るデータを解析するようにした。このため、冷凍倉庫１００間を比較することができ、比較によって得られた判定結果に基づいて、区画価値の向上、運営、装置入替などの提案を行うことができる。 As described above, according to the warehouse management system 1000 of the second embodiment, the analysis control device 520 of the centralized warehouse management device 500 analyzes data relating to warehouse management between a plurality of frozen warehouses 100 to be managed. I made it. For this reason, it is possible to compare the refrigerated warehouses 100, and based on the determination result obtained by the comparison, it is possible to make proposals such as improvement of partition value, management, and device replacement.
実施の形態３．
　前述した実施の形態１においては、各冷凍倉庫１００が有する倉庫管理装置１の管理側制御装置１０が、区画価値の判断、課金、ユニット側電源装置２３０の劣化予測などの処理を行ったが、これに限定するものではない。公衆通信回線４００を介して接続されている集中倉庫管理装置５００の解析制御装置５２０が、各管理側制御装置１０が行う処理を、一括して行うようにしてもよい。 Embodiment 3 FIG.
