Description

  The present invention relates to an electronic diary system capable of creating a diary that is used for managing plant operations.

  In a plant that operates 24 hours a day, an operation diary is created to take over work in shift work, trouble analysis, and transfer of operation know-how. In the relevant operation logbook (takeover book, report book, etc.), information related to plant operation (contents of work carried out, matters that occurred in the plant, notification to shift operators, and various information regarding management information items, etc.) Is recorded. On the other hand, driving diaries previously created by handwriting are also digitized in recent years, and diary systems capable of producing the electronic driving diaries are being introduced.

  Here, the management information item is an item set for the purpose of plant operation management, and usually there are a plurality of management information items (for example, production volume, analysis result, etc.). That is, by grasping the state of each management information item, it is possible to grasp and manage the state of the entire plant operation. Each management information item can grasp the state of the management information item by numerical data. Here, the numerical data serving as the management index of each management information item can be classified into process management numerical data and quality numerical data.

  The process management numerical data is numerical data that serves as an index for process management in plant operation. As the process management numerical data, for example, production output during work, utility usage (electricity, steam, etc.), raw material usage, vibration value, and each device that can be used as a measure of whether the plant was operating stably Temperature, pressure value, etc. On the other hand, quality numerical data is numerical data that serves as an index for managing the quality of products created by plant operation. Examples of the quality numerical data include chemical analysis data values acquired as a result of examining the composition of chemical products.

  As described above, management information items are classified and set into multiple items, and management evaluation of each management information item and status management of each management information item can be performed using various numerical data related to plant operation. It is.

  Information recorded in the diary for each management information item is utilized as data that can comprehensively manage the plant operation status at the time of recording. Conventionally, an operator acquires various numerical data for each management information item by reading each numerical value from a control system, each device, an analyzer, and the like. Then, when creating the diary, the operator records each numerical data or the like in the diary for each management information item as necessary.

  On the other hand, since each management information item can be evaluated by various numerical data, the status of the management information item (as a result, the status of plant operation) can be seen at a glance by following the time-series change of the numerical data. Visible at. Therefore, conventionally, when there is a management information item to be confirmed, the worker has performed the following work.

  First, in order to follow a time-series change of each numerical data serving as a management index of the management information item, the worker acquires the numerical data of the management information item from the diary. Then, the operator enters the acquired numerical data on the front sheet. Then, the operator creates a graph or the like showing a time-series change of the numerical data of the management information item to be confirmed from the table sheet in which the numerical data is entered. From the graph or the like, the operator can confirm and evaluate the status of the management information item.

  For example, Patent Literature 1 exists as a prior document relating to an electronic diary device that electronically creates and manages a diary.

JP 2003-173309 A

  As described above, when recording information related to management information items (that is, the above numerical data, etc.) in a diary, the numerical value is read from a meter or the like, and the read numerical value is recorded in the diary. In order to confirm the time-series change of items, a table (in which a numerical value (numerical data for the management information item) is read from a diary or the like and the read numerical data is arranged in time series has been separately created.

  As described above, it is necessary to enter the numerical data of the management information items in the diary and the table, respectively, which causes a problem that the work efficiency is lowered. In other words, extra effort was required to create the table. Furthermore, when the numerical data of the management information item is read from the diary and the read numerical data is entered in the table, there is a possibility that a typographical error occurs in the entry of the numerical data in the table.

<Embodiment>
FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a schematic overall configuration of an electronic diary system according to the present embodiment. The electronic diary system includes an input unit 1, a diary function unit 2, a table creation unit 3, a storage unit 4, and a display unit 5.

  The input unit 1 is a part where an operator performs input / operation processing. The diary function unit 2 has a function of electronically creating a diary. The storage unit 4 stores a plurality of diaries. The table creation unit 3 has a function of creating a table using a diary saved in the storage unit 4. Further, the display unit 5 presents an input screen, a created table, information necessary for operation, and the like to the worker. The operation / function of each block 1-5 will be described in more detail in the following operation description.

  Next, the operation of the electronic diary system according to the present embodiment will be described.

  First, operations for creating a diary and saving a diary in the electronic diary system will be described.

  First, when creating a diary, the operator performs an operation of a diary creation start process on the input unit 1. The operation of the diary creation start process is notified to the diary function unit 2 via the input unit 1. Upon receiving the notification, the diary function unit 2 causes the display unit 5 to display a diary creation screen. FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of the diary creation screen D1 displayed by the display unit 5. As shown in FIG.

  In the diary creation screen D1 illustrated in FIG. 2, a diary text input screen call button 51 for displaying a diary text input screen for entering the diary text and numerical data for each management information item ( In other words, a numerical value input screen calling button 52 for displaying a numerical value input screen (for inputting numerical data related to plant operation) is included.

  As described above, there are a plurality of management information items set for the purpose of plant operation management. Each management information item grasps its state by numerical data (for example, current value in a predetermined device, temperature value in a predetermined device, vibration value in a predetermined location, analysis value indicating product quality, etc.) Is possible. In the diary creation screen D1 illustrated in FIG. 2, the numerical value input screen call buttons 52a, 52b, 52c,..., 52n are displayed corresponding to the management information items.

  The operator who creates the diary sees the diary creation screen D1 and arbitrarily selects a desired one (item to be recorded as a diary) from the diary text input screen call button 51 and the plurality of numerical value input screen call buttons 52. To do. Here, the selection can be performed by the operator operating the input unit 1.

  For example, when the operator wants to record the situation when a problem occurs in the diary to be created, he selects the diary text input screen call button 51 for entering the diary text. In addition, when it is desired to record numerical data for a predetermined management information item in a diary, a numerical value input screen call button corresponding to the predetermined management information item is entered in order to enter the numerical data of the predetermined management information item. 52 is selected.

  As described above, the selection of the diary text input screen call button 51 and the numerical value input screen call button 52 is arbitrarily selected by the operator depending on what is recorded in the diary, and the number selected is recorded in the diary. It depends on what you do.

  For example, when creating a diary, it is not necessary to select all the numeric input screen call buttons 52. That is, according to the matter to be described in the diary created at that time, all the numerical value input screen call buttons 52 are selected, or one or more desired numerical value input screen call buttons 52 are selected according to the recording request. There may be cases where all numerical value input screen calling buttons 52 are not selected. Further, selection of the diary text input screen call button 51 is not necessarily required.

  When the above selection is performed on the diary creation screen D1 displayed in FIG. 2, the diary function unit 2 displays each input screen on the display unit 5 in accordance with the selection. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of the diary creation screen D2 displayed by the display unit 5. As shown in FIG.

  In the display example of FIG. 3, a diary text input screen call button 51, a numerical value input screen call button (button corresponding to the management information item IA) 52a, and a numerical value input screen call button (button corresponding to the management information item IN) 52n are provided. A diary creation screen D2 when selected is shown. That is, according to the selection operation of the buttons 51 and 52, the diary creation screen D2 illustrated in FIG. 3 includes a diary text input screen 61, a numerical value input screen 61a, and a numerical value input screen 61n.

  Here, the diary text input screen 61 is a screen for entering the diary text, the numeric input screen 61a is a screen for entering numeric data of the management information item IA, and the numeric input screen 61b is a management It is a screen for entering numerical data of the information item IN.

  In the diary text input screen 61, in addition to the diary text entry field, for example, the time information entry field, the creator name entry field, the subject name entry field, the remarks field, and other fields as required A column is provided.

  In addition to the column for entering the numerical data of the management information item IA, the numeric input screen 61a includes, for example, a column for entering information relating to time, a person who performed measurement of numeric data, a person who entered numeric data, etc. A column for entering the name, a column for entering the subject, a remarks column, and other fields as required.

  Similarly, in the numerical value input screen 61n, in addition to the field for entering numerical data of the management information item IN, for example, a field for entering time information, a field for entering a name, a field for entering a subject, a remarks column, Other fields are provided as necessary.

  As can be seen from the above, for each management information item selected in the diary creation screen D1, a numeric input screen call button for entering other information including numerical data related to the management information item is provided for each diary creation screen. Displayed in D2.

  Now, when the diary creation screen D2 as illustrated in FIG. 3 is displayed, the operator enters the diary text and other items to be recorded on the diary text input screen 61, and the numeric input screen 61a Then, enter the numerical data of the management information item IA and other items to be recorded, and enter the numerical data of the management information item IN and other recorded items on the numerical value input screen 61n. Here, each entry on the input screens 61, 61 a, 61 n can be realized by operating the input unit 1.

  When each entry on the input screens 61, 61 a, 61 n is completed, the worker performs processing for saving the created diary in the storage unit 4. The log storage process in the storage unit 4 is performed on the input unit 1, and the input unit 1 transmits a signal instructing storage of the created log to the recording unit 4 to the log function unit 2.

  When the diary function unit 2 receives an instruction to save the created diary in the storage unit 4, the data related to the diary text in the completed diary (that is, each item entered in the diary text input screen) Then, it is stored in the storage unit 4 as text data in association with the completed diary. On the other hand, data related to the numerical data of the management information item (that is, items entered in the numerical value input screen) is stored in the storage unit 4 in an XML (Extensible Markup Language) format in association with the completed diary. . Here, when the diary is stored in the storage unit 4, the date and time of the saving is also recorded in association with the diary for which the creation has been completed.

  In the case of the diary creation screen D2 illustrated in FIG. 3, each item including the diary text entered in the diary text input screen 61 is stored in the storage unit 4 as text data. On the other hand, each item including the numerical data entered on the numerical value input screens 61a and 61n is stored in the storage unit 4 in the XML format. In the storage unit 4, the created diaries are stored in time series.

  Here, the items recorded in each diary stored in the storage unit 4 are various. In other words, the diary text is not necessarily recorded in all diaries, and information such as numerical data related to all management information items is not necessarily recorded.

  For example, in a diary stored in the storage unit 4, if there is a diary in which only each item entered in the diary text input screen is recorded, each item entered in the diary text input screen and the management information item Ia If there is a diary in which each item entered in the numerical input screen corresponding to the item is recorded, each item entered in the numerical input screen corresponding to the management information item Ia and the numerical input screen corresponding to the management information item Id If there is a diary in which each entered item is recorded, only each item entered on the numerical input screen corresponding to at least one management information item is recorded (that is, the diary text is not recorded) There is also a diary.

  Next, a table creation operation in the electronic diary system will be described.

  First, when creating a table, the operator performs an operation for starting table creation on the input unit 1. The table creation start processing operation is notified to the table creation unit 3 via the input unit 1. In response to the notification, the table creation unit 3 displays a screen for inputting and selecting items necessary for table creation on the display unit 5.

  When the management information item and period are specified by the operator through the input unit 1, the table creation unit 3 uses the numerical data of each log stored in the storage unit 4 to specify the specified management information item. And create a table containing numerical data according to the period. The table creation operation will be specifically described below using an example.

  For example, it is assumed that the operator selects the management information item IA and selects and inputs the predetermined period T1 in the input unit 1 when creating the table. Each diary is stored in the storage unit 4 together with the storage date and time of the diary.

  Therefore, the table creation unit 3 receives the selection / input and extracts / selects all diaries belonging to the predetermined period T1 in each diary stored in the storage unit 4. That is, the table creation unit 3 extracts and selects all diaries whose storage dates and times are within the predetermined period T1 from the storage unit 4. Here, it is assumed that the table creation unit 3 has extracted N diaries from the storage unit 4 as diaries belonging to the predetermined period T1.

  Next, in each diary extracted and selected as described above, a search is made for a record item relating to the management information item IA selected as described above.

  Here, as can be seen from the above description, in the diary creation stage, in the numeric entry screen 61a corresponding to the management information item IA, the diary in which each piece of information including the numeric data of the management information item IA is entered includes the management information item. There are records regarding IA. Note that, as is apparent from the description of the creation of the diary, some of the diaries extracted and selected above do not have a description regarding the management information item IA.

  Further, “recording items related to management information item IA” in the diary are all items including numerical data entered on the numerical value input screen 61a corresponding to the management information item IA at the stage of creating the diary.

  As a result of the above search, it is assumed that the table creation unit 3 finds (N−n) diaries from the N diaries, assuming that the record items related to the management information item IA are entered (in n diaries) , It can be understood that the record items related to the management information item IA are not filled in).

  Next, the table creation unit 3 extracts a record item related to the management information item IA from the found (N−n) diaries. Then, the table creation unit 3 creates a table related to the management information item IA using the recorded items related to the extracted management information item IA including numerical data.

  As described above, the “recording items related to the management information item IA” are all items including the numerical data entered in the numerical value input screen 61a corresponding to the management information item IA at the time of creating the diary. The table creation unit 3 creates the table using all the entries related to the management information item IA.

  For example, the table creation unit 3 arranges the numerical data in the table in order (in descending order or ascending order) according to the order of the storage date and time of the diary in which the numerical data is entered.

  As an example, it is assumed that there are four diaries (diaries M1, M2, M3, M4) in which “recording items related to the management information item IA” are recorded. Then, it is assumed that diaries are stored in the storage unit 4 in time series in the order of diary M1 → diary M2 → diary M3 → diary M4. In this case, the table creation unit 3 arranges each numerical data in the table as follows.

  That is, numerical values entered in the diary M1 → numerical data entered in the diary M2 → numerical data entered in the diary M3 → numeric data entered in the diary M4 so that the order is clear. Data is arranged in the table (for example, numerical data is arranged in the table in the order). The table creation unit 3 also clearly shows the relationship between the storage date and time of each diary M1 to M4 in which each numerical data is entered, and the storage date and time of each numerical data and the diary in which the numerical data is recorded in the table. Fill in as follows.

  In addition, in addition to numerical data, for example, an identification symbol (in other words, an identification symbol of a device or the like on which numerical data is measured) is included in the recorded items related to the management information item IA (that is, items to be entered on the numerical input screen 61a corresponding to the management information item IA) If this is the case, an identification symbol for indicating the value of the numerical data), the name of the person who performed the measurement / analysis, the time of the measurement / analysis, the name of the analysis / measurement object (for example, “analysis of oxygen” There may be a specific value that can be identified from the identification symbol), remarks, and other matters.

  Therefore, the table creation unit 3 also arranges items other than the numerical data at predetermined positions in the table so that the correspondence with the numerical data becomes clear together with the corresponding numerical data. That is, each record item related to the management information item IA is arranged in the table so that it is clear that each record item related to the management information item IA recorded in the same log is from the same log. For example, each record item related to the management information item IA recorded in the same diary is arranged in the same row in the table.

  Here, what is to be arranged in which position in the created table for each of the recorded items related to the management information item IA including the numerical data is determined in advance by the system administrator or the like as an arrangement rule in the table creating unit 3. Is set. Therefore, the table creation unit 3 arranges each piece of information on the record items related to the management information item IA extracted from each diary in the table according to the set arrangement rule. FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating an example of a table created by the table creating unit 3.

  As described above, in the electronic diary system according to the present embodiment, the diary function unit 2 can display the numerical value input screen on the display unit 5 when creating a predetermined diary, and the numerical value for the numerical value input screen can be displayed. After the data input operation, the items entered on the numerical value input screen are stored in the storage unit 4 together with the storage date and time in association with a predetermined diary. Then, the table creation unit 3 creates a table related to the numerical data using the numerical data included in the predetermined diary saved in the storage unit 4.

  Therefore, in the electronic diary system, labor for table creation becomes unnecessary, and there is no need to manually input numerical data or the like in the table for table creation. Therefore, it is possible to provide an electronic diary system that can create a table that summarizes numerical data of management information items accurately and without any special effort.

  Each numerical value input screen is provided with a field for inputting numerical data, and the numerical data corresponding to the field is input. Here, in the diary function unit 2, entry conditions can be set for each column in which numerical data is input. For example, for a field in which numerical data dg is input, the numerical data input in the field is set to an entry condition of “10 or more and less than 1000”, or a field in which numerical data dh is input. On the other hand, for the numerical data input in this field, an entry condition of “prohibit entry of decimal points” is set.

  Then, the diary function unit 2 displays the diary function unit when the numerical data input to a certain numerical data input field on a certain numerical value input screen does not satisfy the entry conditions set in advance for the numerical data input field. 2 notifies that the input is rejected or that the entry condition is not satisfied.

  For example, when the numerical data that does not satisfy the entry conditions is input, the diary function unit 2 deletes the input numerical data and returns the numerical data input column to blank. Alternatively, the diary function unit 2 changes the background color of the numeric data entry field in which the numeric data is entered when numeric data that does not satisfy the entry conditions is input, an input error occurs to the operator. Notify that

  In this way, the diary function unit 2 can set entry conditions for each column in which numerical data is input, so that an operator can recognize an obvious error in the input numerical data. Can be made.

  In addition, it is assumed that there is a process data database for collecting measurement data from instruments arranged in each place in the plant. In the process data database, for each collected measurement data, an identification symbol of the instrument indicating from which instrument the measurement data is measured and transmitted, and data indicating a date and time when the measurement data is measured and transmitted Etc. are also recorded. Here, in the process data database, the correspondence between each identification symbol and the name of each instrument corresponding to the identification symbol is also managed. In addition to the above, the process data database may manage data corresponding to the entry conditions described above, or may manage the installation location of the instrument.

  By linking the process data database and the electronic diary system according to the present invention, the following processing is also possible.

  For example, it is assumed that a predetermined identification symbol is input in the identification symbol entry field of the numerical value input screen. Then, the diary function unit 2 acquires each information managed in the process data database in association with the input identification symbol from the process data database. Then, the acquired information is automatically entered in each column of the numerical value input screen in which a predetermined identification symbol is input.

  As an example, it is assumed that a predetermined identification symbol is entered in the identification symbol entry field of the numerical value input screen and a predetermined time is entered in the time entry field. Then, the diary function unit 2 associates the numerical data measured at the predetermined time and the name of the instrument specified by the predetermined identification symbol, which are managed in the process data database in association with the predetermined identification symbol, Obtain from the data database. Then, the diary function unit 2 automatically enters the acquired numerical data in the numerical data entry field of the numerical input screen where the predetermined identification symbol is input, and the acquired instrument name is assigned the predetermined identification symbol. Automatically fill in the instrument name entry field of the entered numeric input screen.

  As described above, by linking the process data database and the electronic diary system according to the present invention, it is possible to reduce the information input on the numerical value input screen, thereby suppressing type errors and reducing the diary creation effort. It becomes possible.

  It should be noted that the user table in the XML format is created so that the setting of the numerical value input screen can be set without knowledge of advanced database and the set information can be freely changed. This makes it possible to easily set the numerical value input screen. In addition, as a result, each piece of information input on the numerical value input screen is stored in the storage unit 4 in the XML format, and the information can be easily extracted.
