In addition to the work instruction data, the instruction file stores the total number of allocations and the actual number. In the present embodiment, the identification number is obtained by combining the flight number and the product number. In FIG. 6, the designated number is a value indicating the total number of labels to be issued by the present label attaching system (that is, the entire labelers 1 to 3). The total number of allocations is a value indicating the total number of allocations of the labelers 1 to 3. Here, the “number of allocated labelers” is the number of labels assigned to the labelers. The number of achievements is
This is a value indicating the total number of labels issued by the labelers 1 to 3.

The example shown in this figure is a progress monitor screen showing the progress of label issuance. Further, as described above, the touch panel is provided on the monitor screen. Here, the operator
When the user touches the "flight" column (in the example shown in FIG. 7, a part displayed as "two flights"), the flight number to be displayed is rotationally increased. That is, since the example shown in FIG. 7 is a progress monitor screen for two flights, if "2 flights" is touched,
Move to the flight progress monitor screen.

In FIG. 7, the "progress rate" column indicates the progress rate of the currently displayed flight number. When the progress rate reaches 100%, all the fields are filled.
This progress rate is calculated by the following equation using the value for the same flight in the instruction file (see FIG. 6). (Progress rate) = (Total number of results of the same flight number) / (Total number of indications of the same flight number) x 100

In FIG. 7, a value calculated by the following equation is displayed in the "expected end time" column. (Expected end time) = {(number of instructions) − (number of results)} × (required time) + (current time) In this equation, “required time” is calculated by the following equation. (Required time) = {(current time)-(start time)} (actual number)

In FIG. 7, in the "planned number (of the number of products and the number of labels)" column, when one label is attached for each product, the number of the designated flight number of the same flight number in the instruction file is displayed. The total is displayed. Also, in FIG.
In the “Remaining number (of the number of products and the number of labels)” column, when one label is pasted for each product, the difference between the total number of instructions for the same flight number in the instruction file and the total number of results Is displayed.

Next, the operation of the label sticking system having the above configuration will be described. FIG. 8 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an operation example of the label pasting system according to the present embodiment. The labelers 1 to 3 receive in advance the product data (product number, product name, price, etc.) of each product from the labeler controller 12 and store the product data in a product file provided in the RAM 21. Shall be.

First, when the host computer 11 receives the processing operation instruction data (correspondence between the flight number and the product number) from the head office computer 10 via a public line, the host computer 11 uses a printer (not shown) to determine the correspondence. Issue a product ledger with the indicated barcode printed.

When the host computer 11 receives the label issuing work instruction data (flight number, product number, instruction number, date of manufacture) from the head office computer 10 via a public line, the host computer 11 transmits the label issuing work instruction data via the LAN. The flight number, product number, number of instructions, and date of manufacture are entered into the labeler controller 12.
Send to The labeler controller 12 stores the received flight number, product number, number of instructions, and date of manufacture in the instruction file. At this time, “0” is stored in the allocation total number and the actual number in the column identified by the flight number and the product number. Here, as an example, in each column of the instruction file,
It is assumed that the values shown in FIG.

Next, when the operator applies a bar code scanner 17 connected to an arbitrary labeler (for example, labeler 1) to a bar code printed on a commodity ledger 18, the labeler 1 Read the flight number and product number indicated by the code. At this time, the input of the flight number and the product number can also be performed using the ten keys of the operation unit 14c. Here, as an example, it is assumed that “1” is input as a flight number and “10” is input as a product number. Once the flight number and product number are entered,
The labeler 1 transmits the flight number and the product number to the labeler controller 12, and requests data necessary for issuing the label (see FIG. 8).

The labeler controller 12 controls the labeler 1
When receiving the flight number and the product number, the command file refers to the column identified by the flight number and the product number in the instruction file. Here, as an example, since the flight number is "1" and the product number is "10", the column shown in FIG. 6A is referred to. And the labeler controller 12
If the total number of allocations in the column is smaller than the number of instructions, the total number of allocations is subtracted from the number of instructions, and the subtracted value is transmitted to the labeler 1 together with the date of manufacture in the same column as the remaining number of instructions. .
Here, as an example, as shown in FIG. 6A, the number of instructions is “1000” and the total number of allocations is “0”, so that “1000 (= 1000−0)” is used as the remaining number of instructions.
Is transmitted (see FIG. 8). When this communication is completed, 1000 is added to the total number of allocations in the instruction file, and 1
000.

The labeler 1 includes a labeler controller 12
When the remaining number of instructions and the date of manufacture are received, the previously entered flight number and product number are displayed on the liquid crystal display unit 14a, and the received instruction number is displayed in the "pack number" column of the liquid crystal display unit 14a. The remaining number is displayed (see FIG. 4A). Here, when the operator accepts the issuance of the label for the displayed remaining number of instructions without any change, the received remaining number of instructions becomes the allocation number of the labeler 1 as it is.

On the other hand, if the displayed number of remaining instructions is too large and the operator wants to change the number, the operator uses the numeric keypad of the operation section 14c to input the number of sheets that can be handled by the labeler 1, and then inputs the number of sheets corresponding to the liquid crystal display section 14a. Press the upper touch key "Pack number". At this time, when the input value is larger than the received instruction remaining number, the labeler 1
The message "a value larger than the displayed number of packs cannot be input" is displayed in a. When the input is completed, the labeler 1 displays the “pack number” on the liquid crystal display unit 14a.
Is replaced with the input value (see FIG. 4B). As a result, the input value of the received instruction remaining number becomes the allocation number of the labeler 1. Here, as an example, the received instruction remaining number (10
(00 sheets), it is assumed that 600 sheets have been input as the allocation number.

When the number of allocations is determined, the labeler 1 sends the number of allocations together with the flight number and the product number to the labeler controller 12 (see FIG. 8). The labeler controller 12 adds the received allocation number to the allocated total number identified by the received flight number and product number in the instruction file. Here, as an example, the total number of allocations before updating is “1000” and the number of allocations received is “60”.
Since it is "0", as shown in FIG. 6B, the total number of allocations of the instruction file is updated to "600 (= 0 + 600)".

After determining the number of allocations of the labeler 1, when the operator flows the product on the conveyor, the labeler 1 stores the product data (product name, price, etc.) corresponding to the previously inputted flight number and product number. The label is read from the product file in the RAM 21, a label is issued based on the product data, and the label is attached to the product flowing on the conveyor. At this time, the date of manufacture received from the labeler controller 12 is printed in the column of date of manufacture of the label. In addition, each time one label is issued, the labeler 1
The value displayed below the “pack number” of the liquid crystal display unit 14a is decremented.

Next, the operator operates the bar code scanner 17 connected to a labeler (for example, labeler 2) different from the labeler 1 to read the bar code of the commodity ledger 18 (the bar code read by the labeler 1). (The same barcode), the labeler 2 reads the flight number and the product number indicated by the barcode. Upon reading the barcode (that is, the flight number “1” and the product number “10”), the labeler 2 transmits the flight number and the product number to the labeler controller 12 and requests data necessary for issuing the label. (See FIG. 8).

The labeler controller 12 includes the labeler 2
When receiving the flight number and the product number, the command file refers to the column identified by the flight number and the product number in the instruction file. Then, similarly to the case of the labeler 1, the labeler controller 12 sets a subtraction value obtained by subtracting the total number of allocations from the number of instructions as the remaining number of instructions, together with the manufacturing date in the same column,
Send to Labeler 2. Here, as an example, FIG.
As shown in (b), since the number of instructions is “1000” and the total number of allocations is “600”, the remaining instruction number is “4”.
00 (= 1000-600) "is transmitted (see FIG. 8). When this communication is completed, the total number of allocations of the instruction file is added to the original 600 by adding 400 to 1000.

The labeler 2 includes a labeler controller 12
When the number of instructions and the date of manufacture are received from
Similarly, in the lower part of the “pack number” of the liquid crystal display unit 14a,
Displays the remaining number of instructions received. In the same manner as in the case of the labeler 1, when the operator wants to change the issuance of the label for the displayed remaining number of indications because the number is too large, the operator uses the numeric keypad of the operation unit 14c to change the labeler 2 After inputting the number of sheets that can be handled, the touch key "pack number" on the liquid crystal display unit 14a is pressed. Here, as an example,
It is assumed that all of the received instruction remaining number (400) has been accepted as the allocation number.

The labeler controller 12 adds the transmitted remaining number of instructions to the total number of allocations identified by the received flight number and product number in the instruction file. Here, as an example, the total number of allocations before the update of the instruction file is "
600 "and the remaining number of transmitted instructions is" 400 ", so the total number of allocated instruction files is updated to" 1000 (= 600 + 400) "as shown in FIG. As a result, the total number of allocations in the instruction file became equal to the number of instructions.
Temporarily stops the allocation process. However, as described later, since the labeler may change the allocation number, the allocation processing is not ended.

After the number of allocations of the labeler 2 is determined, when the operator flows the product on the conveyor, the labeler 2 issues a label based on the product data read from the product file in the RAM 21 similarly to the labeler 1. Then, the label is attached to the product flowing on the conveyor. Then, each time one label is issued, the labeler 2 decrements the value displayed below the “number of packs” on the liquid crystal display unit 14a.

Further, in the present embodiment, it is possible to change the number of allocations of each labeler even after the goods start to flow on the conveyor and the label issuing / sticking operation is started. For example, in labeler 1, already 20
When zero labels are issued and affixed, there is room for another labeler (for example, labeler 3), so the number of allocations already allocated to labeler 1 (600)
Let us consider a case where 250 of the sheets are allocated to the labeler 3. In this case, the number of allocations of the labeler 1 is 350 (=
600-250), the operator uses the numeric keypad of the operation unit 14c to change the allocated number (35).
After inputting 0), the touch key “pack number” on the liquid crystal display unit 14a is pressed.

At this time, when the number of allocations after the change is larger than the number of allocations before the change, the labeler 1 displays the liquid crystal display unit 14.
For a, "You cannot enter a value larger than the current allocation number."
Is displayed. If the number of allocations after the change is smaller than the number of labels already issued by the labeler, the labeler 1 displays the liquid crystal display unit 14a.
Is displayed, the message "You cannot enter a value smaller than the number of labels already issued" is displayed.

When a new allocation number is entered, labeler 1
Since the value displayed in the “number of packs” column of the liquid crystal display section 14a has already been issued 200, and is 400, the allocation number before the change and the allocation number after the change The difference (600−350 = 250) is subtracted, and the subtracted value (400−250 = 150) is replaced with the value (“400”) currently displayed in the “pack number” column.

When the allocation number is changed, the labeler 1 determines the difference between the allocation number before the change and the allocation number after the change (600-35).
0 = 250) to the labeler controller 12 together with the flight number and the product number. The labeler controller 12 subtracts the received difference from the total number of allocations identified by the flight number and the product number in the instruction file. Here, as an example, the allocation total before the update of the instruction file is “1000”, and the received difference is “25”.
6D, the total number of allocations in the instruction file is updated to "750 (= 1000-250)" as shown in FIG. Since the number has become smaller than the designated number, the labeler controller 12 restarts the allocation process.

Then, when there is a data request identified by the same flight number ("1") and product number ("10") from another labeler (for example, labeler 3) which can afford the work, labeler 1 and labeler 1 As in the case of 2, a subtraction value obtained by subtracting the total number of allocations from the number of instructions (250 = 1000−75)
0) is transmitted together with the date of manufacture in the same column. As a result, the labeler 3 performs the same operation as the labelers 1 and 2 and approves the allocation number of 250, and the labeler controller 12 registers the allocation number together with the flight number and the product number.
Send to The labeler controller 12 adds the received allocation number to the allocated total number identified by the received flight number and product number in the instruction file. here,
As an example, as shown in FIG. 6D, the total number of allocations before updating the instruction file is “750” and the number of allocations received is “250”.
It becomes "1000" again.

If the total number of allocations in the instruction file is smaller than the number of instructions while repeating the above-described operation, the labeler controller 12 allocates the remaining number of instructions to each labeler. Then, when the number of labels issued and affixed by the labeler reaches the allocated number of the labeler, the labeler displays a message “the number of packs is zero” on the liquid crystal display (see FIG. 4
(C)). Then, the labeler transmits the number of labels issued and affixed to the labeler controller 12 together with the flight number and the product number as the actual number of labels, and ends the label issuance and affixing process. For example, since the number of allocations of the labeler 1 (after the change) is 350,
When zero labels are issued and affixed, the number is transmitted to the labeler controller 12 together with the flight number and the product number (see FIG. 8).

When the labeler controller 12 receives the actual number, the labeler controller 12 adds the actual number to the received actual number identified by the flight number and the product number in the instruction file, and transmits the result to the host computer 11. When the labeler controller 12 receives the actual number, the labeler controller 12
The data on the progress monitor screen shown in (1) is updated in accordance with the above-mentioned equations.

Hereinafter, the labeler controller 12 sequentially receives the number of results from each labeler assigned to issue the label, and receives the numbers of results from all the labelers.
When the actual number in the instruction file becomes equal to the instruction number, it is determined that the number of labels instructed by the host computer 11 has been issued, and management of label issuance / sticking processing for the article identified by the flight number and article number is performed. To end. This is the end of the description of the operation of the label pasting system having the above configuration.

Although the embodiment of the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the drawings, the specific configuration is not limited to this embodiment, and changes in the design and the like can be made without departing from the gist of the present invention. Even if there is, it is included in the present invention. For example, in the above-described embodiment, the date of manufacture to be printed on the label is received from the headquarters computer 10,
In the case of a food processing center having no headquarters, a timekeeping means (such as a clock) may be provided inside each labeler, and the date of manufacture indicated by the timekeeping means may be printed. However, in this case, it is necessary to set each clocking means so that the clocking means of all labelers indicate the same date.

In the embodiment, in order to reduce the processing load on the host computer 11, the labeler controller 12 for managing the label issuing operation is provided with a labeler controller 12.
Although provided separately from the host computer 11, the host computer 11 and the labeler controller 12 may be shared by one computer when the processing load other than the label issuing work management is small.

In the embodiment, the example in which the total number of allocations is stored in the instruction file has been described. Instead of storing the total number of allocations, the labeler controller 12 receives the allocation number change data from each labeler. Alternatively, the received allocation number change data may be subtracted from the instruction number in the instruction file. In this case, when changing the allocation number in each labeler, the labeler controller 12
When a difference (a value obtained by subtracting the allocated number after the change from the allocated number before the change) is received from each labeler, the difference is added to the indicated number in the instruction file. Here, since the allocation number change data only needs to know the changed value, the allocation numbers before and after the change may be transmitted.

In the embodiment, the labeler automatically attaches the label, but the operator (operator) may attach the label to the product by hand. In the embodiment, the example in which the data in the instruction file is managed by using the flight number and the product number as the identification numbers has been described. However, the data in the instruction file is managed only by the product number without using the flight number. You may do so.

[0046]

As described above, according to the present invention, even if the number of labels issued for one type of product is much larger than that of other products, the number of labels issued can be reduced.
The labelers can be efficiently allocated to a plurality of labelers, and the plurality of labelers can be effectively used. In addition, since the operation of assigning the allocation number to each labeler can be performed by the labeler that actually performs the work, the operation is:
It can be easily performed according to the work situation, and the worker does not need to go to the management device. Further, by determining an appropriate allocation number by another labeler, the labeler that receives the remaining instruction number at the end does not need to input the allocation number.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, after a certain number of labels have been issued after the start of work in a certain labeler, the number of allocations of the labeler is changed, and the difference between before and after the change is compared with another difference. Can be assigned to labelers.
According to the third aspect of the invention, if the product number and the destination data are converted into bar codes and printed on the product ledger,
When requesting the remaining number of instructions from the management device, simply scanning the barcode with a barcode reader allows the user to select a product to be worked on from among a plurality of work instruction data stored in the management device. Since the work instruction data can be specified, the operability is good. According to the fourth aspect of the present invention, since the progress of the work of the entire system can be known, if a progress delay is found, it is possible to cope with the delay earlier by changing the allocation of the number of reserves of each labeler. it can.
