Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a point-of-production information management system, that is, a POP, for managing performance information for production instructions.
The present invention relates to a bar code reading handy scanner used in (Point of Product).

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a handy scanner is used to read a bar code of an instruction sheet in which production instruction information for each product to be produced is displayed by a bar code, and after confirming the reading, the handy scanner is held in a pen to write a read confirmation check. Was going on. As a technique for simplifying the barcode reading and handwriting input work, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 6-8351
Japanese Patent No. 6 discloses a handwriting input device capable of handwriting input and bar code input with one pen-shaped object.

[0003]

In the above conventional bar code reading, for example, when the reading is interrupted and restarted, it may be erroneous or unclear as to how far the handy scanner has read. There is a risk of omission of reading or double reading. or,
There is a problem that the work efficiency is poor because the writing tool such as a pen is used to write the check.

Further, since the one described in the above publication is for inputting, it cannot solve the above-mentioned conventional problems.

The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and when a large number of bar codes are read by a handy scanner, there is no fear of omission of reading or double reading, and the reading and checking work can be performed efficiently. It is intended to provide a reading handy scanner.

[0006]

A bar code reading handy scanner of the present invention collects performance information for each production instruction by reading a bar code of a production instruction sheet in which a product type is displayed as a bar code with the handy scanner. A handy scanner used in a process control system, in which a marking tool is provided on a part of the outer periphery of the reading unit of the handy scanner, and the reading unit of the handy scanner contacts the bar code, and at the same time, near the read bar code. It can be stamped.

The reading portion of the handy scanner is a portion where the main body containing the light emitter and the barcode reading device faces the barcode. A marking tool is provided on a part of the outer circumference of the main body. As the marking tool, a stamp or the like to which ink is automatically supplied is particularly preferable, but the marking surface is not limited to the one indicating a name, and may be a symbol such as ○ or ●.

It is convenient to attach the marking tool detachably so that it can be replaced appropriately. The position of attachment is only required to allow the marking surface to come into contact with the paper surface when the reading unit is pressed against the bar code surface, and the position of the outer periphery of the reading unit is not particularly limited, but it is preferable that the end of the bar code can be marked.

[0009]

When the handy scanner is pressed against the surface of the paper after reading the bar code, a character or symbol is imprinted by the marking tool next to the bar code, and the end of the reading is simultaneously displayed. Therefore, it is not necessary to change the handy scanner to a writing instrument such as a pen and write by hand.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of a bar code reading handy scanner of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of a bar code reading handy scanner of the present invention. Reference numeral 1 is a handy scanner body in which a light emitting body and a bar code reading device are incorporated, and 2 is a bar code reading unit. A holder 3 to which a continuous stamp 4 that can be continuously printed as a marking tool is detachably attachable is provided on a part of the outer periphery of the barcode reading unit 2, and the stamp 4 held by the holder 4 is attached.
The marking surface 5 of the above is aligned with the lower surface of the main body 1. Using the above box reading handy scanner, a large number of bar codes displayed on the production instruction sheet were read and the read marking was performed. There was no need to change the handy scanner to a writing instrument, and I was able to read efficiently and check.

[0010]

The bar code reading handy scanner of the present invention has the above-described structure, and at the same time when the reading portion of the handy scanner contacts the bar code, the bar code read by the marking tool provided on the outer periphery of the handy scanner main body is used. Since it is possible to print the barcode, it is possible to efficiently read the barcode and display the completion of reading without having to switch the handy scanner to a writing instrument.
