  • the information display comprises a computer having a database in which plural pieces of information required by operators are recorded, and a plurality of information terminals having an indicator displaying the necessary information to be transmitted from the computer in letters; that each information terminal is provided in correspondence to one textile machine or plural textile machines; that the information terminals transmit inputted information to the computer, which reads necessary information in letters corresponding to the received input information from the database and transmits it to the information terminals; and that the information terminals display the transmitted necessary information in the indicator.
  • the necessary information is further translated into a plurality of languages and pre-stored in the database, and the computer, upon receipt of the inputted items, reads the necessary information corresponding to the input information from the database on the basis of language selection information corresponding to the input information and transmits it as necessary information corresponding to the input information.
  • the computer when outputting the necessary information corresponding to the input information which the operator inputted, selects the necessary information corresponding to the requested language information from the database recording the necessary information translated into several languages and sends it to the information terminals.
  • the information terminals display in the language the necessary information to be sent in such a manner. That is to say, the necessary information is displayed in the indicator by a language which can be easily understood by operators whose favorite languages are different, which helps any operators understand the necessary information. Consequently, any operators whose favorite languages are different can improve their workability and operability relative to the textile machines.
  • the language selection information of each operator to be pre-registered may be inputted either into the information terminals or set in the computer.
  • each operator may previously input his language selection information into the information terminals of a machine which he is in charge of at the time of changing shifts, and the information terminals may be adapted to transmit the inputted language selection information to the computer. If the operator once sets his language selection in the setter of the machine he is in charge of before starting operation, any trouble or machine stop that may occur in the machine is automatically indicated in the selected language without bothering the operator for switching indication of languages, so that thereafter he can easily understand information in expressed letters of the language.
  • each language selection information relative to an operator in charge at each work shift for each textile machine is previously registered in the computer, the computer renews the language selection information of each machine at every work shift, and outputs necessary information with reference thereto.
  • the computer renews the language selection information of each machine at every work shift, and outputs necessary information with reference thereto.
  • the textile machinery there can be enumerated more concretely, a loom, a weft or warp manufacturing equipment (spinning machine, yarn twister, doubler), warp sizer, warper, and the like.
  • Information terminals may be provided in one-to-one correspondence to textile machines, or in correspondence of one to plural textile machines.
  • the information display 10 is constituted as a support system for displaying, in exchanging parts of a loom, working steps or working procedure for reparation, checking and the like and adjustment of renewal parts and the like, and to switch over to one of languages to be displayed by selecting an operator's language information.
