DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to a database construction method for a textile mill, etc., and a portable terminal device used therefor.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, in order to maintain the stable performance of various types of spinning equipment at spinning factories, daily inspections and maintenance are carried out, and parts are replaced as necessary.

Also, in order to perform maintenance quickly and accurately, or to record the history of maintenance, checklists prepared based on past experience and performance have been used.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, in order to carry out more appropriate maintenance, it is necessary to accumulate maintenance data for each type of spinning ff equipment, perform statistical analysis, and prepare a checklist itself.

Recently, there has been a desire to propose a method for automatically constructing a database of various spinning machines in order to perform statistics, analysis, and searches.

A first object of the present invention is to provide a method for constructing a maintenance database for each spinner.

A second object of the present invention is to provide a portable terminal device that can input data using standardized information when constructing a database for maintenance.

Means for Solving the Two Problems] A first invention to achieve the first object is to record maintenance data in a portable terminal device every time maintenance work is performed in a textile factory, and transfer it to a host computer. The device database is automatically constructed.

A second invention for achieving the second object is used in the first invention, and includes a symptom information screen, a status information screen 1, and a cause information screen, which are stored hierarchically in advance.

An input screen where codes or characters can be input is selectively called up on the display by key operation, and when at least one piece of information is selected by key operation from each of the information on the symptom 1 condition and cause information screen, that information is saved. I as information
The information is recorded on the IC card, and when there is no appropriate information on the above information screen and a screen that allows code or character entry is selected, the information entered in code or characters is recorded on the IC card as security information. be.

2 actions] Perform maintenance work on each spinning machine, and during this maintenance work, use a portable terminal device, such as a notebook computer, to
Record the security data on the C card.

Then, at the end of each day's work, the notebook computer and the host computer are connected using a communication line or a card reader, and the maintenance data is transferred to the host computer. After automatically classifying the transferred data and constructing a primary database, the host computer statistically analyzes the primary database, compresses and formats the data, and constructs a secondary database. In other words, the host computer incorporates new maintenance data into the past secondary database and continues to grow, building a database of enormous size. Therefore, this database allows maintenance work f! Access the host computer to check the maintenance trends and countermeasures for specific spinning equipment, predict the operation status of the specific spinning equipment, and check maintenance trends and countermeasures (replacement cycles, replacement parts necessary for maintenance, etc.) maintenance supplies, etc.)
This will enable quick maintenance work to be carried out.

By the way, in constructing a database for maintenance, it is necessary to input maintenance data in a language format that corresponds to information based on past experience in order to promote data processing ability.

For this reason, as in the second invention, the symptom-specific information screen, the state-specific information screen, the cause-specific information screen, and the screen that allows code input or character input are called up on the display by key operation, and the information displayed on these screens is 0 selection data for selecting information suitable for the content of maintenance work is recorded on the IC card as maintenance information. In addition, if appropriate information is not displayed on the display in the symptom 7 status and cause-specific information screen, new information is added by calling up a screen that allows code input or character input by key operation. This additional information is also recorded on the IC card as security data. As described above, in the present invention, data in the maintenance worker common language format is recorded on the IC card without recording data in different expression formats on the IC card depending on the maintenance personnel.

[Embodiment] A preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described below based on the accompanying drawings.

The various types of spinning equipment installed in a spinning factory have different configurations depending on their uses and purposes, and the forms of maintenance will naturally differ as well. Therefore, these spinning machines
For quick and accurate maintenance, check the following items for each spinner! It is desirable that maintenance, inspection, and replacement be carried out based on this standard.

Therefore, in the present invention, the portable terminal device 1 is
, record all the necessary data related to maintenance work, such as the maintenance person (Maintenance M), date of maintenance, name of the spinning machine to be maintained, its serial number, maintenance items, maintenance details, etc., and perform daily maintenance work. After completion, all data is transferred from the portable terminal device 1 to the host computer 2, and a database is automatically constructed.

As the portable terminal device 1, as shown in FIG. 2, a notebook-type computer 1a is used, which can read and write data to and from an IC card. This notebook type computer 1a has at least CPU3. ROM4゜IC card5. Consists of display 6, l107 and transfer slot 8, R
OM4 records the check list system and transfer system for each type of spinning equipment based on the experience and results cultivated through maintenance work to date. ROM4 is a symptom information screen that is stored in advance hierarchically for each spinning device.

It is configured to selectively display a status information screen, a cause information screen, and an input screen where codes or characters can be entered on the display 6 by operating an external key, and each information on the symptom, condition, and cause information screen. When at least one piece of information is selected by key operation, that information is recorded (written) on the IC card 5 as maintenance information, and if there is no appropriate information on the symptom information screen, status information screen, or cause information screen, the code Alternatively, when a key is selected on an input screen where characters can be input, the information inputted in code or characters is recorded on the IC card 5 as security information.

For example, when recording maintenance data of an automatic wine machine on the IC card 5 using the notebook computer 1a, the maintenance data is recorded according to the flow shown in FIG.

Recording of this data is performed by accessing the CPU 3 via the IC card 5, and a key operation calls up symptom-specific information 9, condition-specific information 10, cause-specific information 11, and a character screen where code or character input is possible. “Other” for
is selectively called up on the display 6, and specific information designated by keystrokes from among these pieces of information is recorded in the IC card 5 as security data. For example, from the symptom-specific information 9 such as "upper thread not working", "bobbin thread not working", etc., "upper thread not working" matches the actual symptom.
Next, select "Package defective" that matches the actual condition from among the 10 condition-specific information such as "Package defective"..."Other", "Edge drop", "No bobbin thread".

From the cause-specific information 11 such as "twill irregularity", "double suction", "lower opening", etc., "others" are selected, the actually suitable "fluffing" is selected. As the maintenance data, the symptom-specific information 9 is that the upper thread is missing, the condition-specific information 10 is that the paragauge is defective, and the cause-specific information 11 is that the fuzz is tangled.Also, the symptoms and conditions.

In the cause-specific information 11, if appropriate information is not displayed on the display 6, select "Others" by key operation and add new information by inputting a code or characters. This additional information is also recorded in the IC card 5 as security data.

For example, enter the code as follows.

Example: The upper thread did not come out...Code 1 Drum reversal was defective...Code 2 The reversal roll was slipping...Code 3-Replaced the N roll.
...Code 4-N In addition to recording the above maintenance data, enter the factory name, maintenance person (maintenance M), maintenance date, target spinning equipment name and its serial number, and maintenance information on the code or character input screen. The part I went to, its condition! ! ! (extent of wear, scratches, seizure, breakage, etc.), replacement of shafts, bearings, etc. (in case of replacement, name of the replacement part (parts name))
, lubrication, etc. are recorded on the IC card 5.

In addition, information by symptom 9. Information by condition 10 and information by cause 1
For the characters input as 1, words corresponding to the code table are used as much as possible in order to unify the language 1 expression format, and to improve statistical 1 analysis and search efficiency.

In this way, in the present invention, maintenance data is sequentially recorded on the IC card 5 each time maintenance work is performed for each spinner, and after the daily maintenance work is completed, the notebook computer 1a and the host computer 2 are recorded as shown in FIG. to the host computer 2 using a communication line or card reader.
All data on the IC card 5 is transferred to. In the host computer 2, after automatically classifying data and constructing a primary database, the primary database is statistically analyzed.
Compress and format the data to build a secondary database. In other words, in the host computer 2, the new maintenance data of the notebook computer 2 that has been transferred is incorporated into the previously inputted secondary database, and the database gradually grows to an enormous size. Therefore, this database makes it possible to complete the above-mentioned check list system program, to make maintenance work more appropriate and speedy, to predict maintenance trends and countermeasures for specific spinning equipment, and to access the host computer 2. It will be possible to perform maintenance work quickly by predicting the operational status of specific spinning equipment, as well as drawing out maintenance trends and countermeasures (replacement cycles, replacement parts necessary for maintenance, maintenance supplies, etc.). In other words, it is possible to predict the necessity and timing of after-sales service based on the content of the call, and it is also possible to manage the inventory of replacement parts.

It is also possible to connect the host computer 2 and the customer's host computer 2 via a communication line and import the customer's database input using the terminal device 1.
By growing the database of the host computer 2, an advanced database can be constructed. By using communication lines, it will be possible to analyze the customer's transferred data, quickly and accurately diagnose the failure location and failure prediction of the customer's spinning equipment, and provide failure pattern prediction and processing countermeasure services. .

[Effects of the Invention] As is clear from the above explanation, the present invention exhibits the following excellent effects.

(1) It is possible to automatically construct a maintenance database for searching, analyzing, and statistical processing for each machine in a spinning factory.

(2) By using a portable terminal device, maintenance data can be standardized, all maintenance data can be utilized for the database, and database statistics, analysis, and search processing can be speeded up.
