Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention is a method for giving work instructions for each product and process to workers in a complicated assembly line for large products such as an automobile manufacturing line. The present invention relates to a manufacturing device that automatically manufactures work instructions in a form that can be adhered to a predetermined location.

[Prior Art] Generally, in the complicated assembly line process of manufacturing large products, the work contents are written in a certain work instruction sheet and presented to the worker for each process. In processes such as those that require extremely complex work instructions with a wide variety of options, it is necessary to clearly and thoroughly instruct the work contents each time. Therefore,
All work contents are processed by computer, and the work contents are output for each process to ensure thorough disclosure to workers. After being cut into individual sheets, they are glued with adhesive tape to easily visible locations for each process or vehicle.

However, in the past, the entire process from cutting out the sheets to adhering them with adhesive tape had to be done manually by workers, making the work cumbersome and extremely inefficient.Moreover, the adhesive tape had to be peeled off from the roll and then cut. Since the adhesive tape sometimes stretches and then gradually shrinks, when the adhesive tape is attached to an instruction sheet, the instruction sheet warps as the adhesive tape contracts, making it very difficult to handle. Another drawback was that when the instructions were removed, the adhesive tended to remain at the adhesive site.

[Problem to be Solved by the Invention] The problem to be solved by the present invention is to attach an adhesive piece to a predetermined location from a continuous sheet that is printed with predetermined work details and continuously outputted by a computer printer. To easily and automatically manufacture a single-sheet work instruction sheet in a state where the work instruction sheet is in a fixed state without using an adhesive tape as an adhesive piece.

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to solve the above problems, the manufacturing method of the present invention includes a step of transferring onto a table a continuous sheet on which work contents are printed and continuously outputted from a computer printer; A step of affixing a label as an adhesive piece formed by applying adhesive to one side of a base material of a predetermined shape to the sheet transferred onto the table with a part thereof protruding from the sheet; It consists of the step of cutting the continuous sheet at a predetermined position; and the step of taking out the work instruction form as a single sheet with a label attached from the table.

In addition, the uninvented manufacturing device includes a means for transferring onto a table a continuous sheet on which work contents are printed and continuously outputted from a computer printer; a label supply mechanism that supplies labels one by one as adhesive pieces formed by the label supply mechanism; the label supplied from the label supply mechanism is held by suction, and the label is placed on a sheet on a table with a portion protruding from the sheet; A cutter that cuts the continuous sheet transferred onto the table at a predetermined position; A take-out means that takes out the work instruction form as a single sheet with the label pasted from the table; ing.

[Operation] When a continuous sheet output from a computer printer is transferred onto a table, the labels supplied by the label supply mechanism are adsorbed and held by the pasting means and conveyed onto the sheet, with some parts protruding from the sheet. It is attached to the edge of the sheet in such a state that the

Then, the sheet is cut at a predetermined position by a cutter, and the work instruction sheet is taken out from the table by a take-out means.

In this way, work instructions in the form of single sheets with labels attached are automatically produced from the continuous sheets output from the computer printer.

The above work instructions can be used as they are by adhering them to a predetermined location using a label, but since a label pre-formed in a predetermined shape is used as an adhesive piece, this label is similar to adhesive tape. Does not exhibit elasticity and therefore
Work instructions will not be warped due to pasting labels. In addition, by selecting the adhesive applied to the label, it is possible to easily set its adhesive properties and re-adhesiveness after being peeled off, making it possible to select the most suitable label depending on the adhesive location, etc. It can be used selectively and no adhesive remains at the adhesive site after the label is removed.

[Example] Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

In FIGS. 1 and 2, 1 is the body of the manufacturing device, and 2 is a continuous sheet such as a form paper, on which predetermined work details are printed and continuously outputted from a computer printer (not shown). , the machine body 1 includes a transport means 7 that sequentially feeds the continuous sheets 2 onto a table 5 formed on the top thereof, and a transport means 7 that sequentially feeds the continuous sheets 2 onto the table 5 formed on the top thereof;

The transport means 7 includes a drive roller 8 connected to a motor (not shown), and is configured to transport the sheet 2 with the drive roller 8, but may have other configurations. Note that 9 is a guide roller that guides the sheet 2.

In order to stop the sheet 2 fed onto the table 5 at a predetermined position, a sheet sensor 20 for detecting the leading edge of the sheet 2 is provided at an appropriate position of the apparatus, and is driven by a detection signal from the sheet sensor 20. The roller 8 is stopped.

The label supply mechanism 11 also includes two roll-shaped release tapes 22 on which a large number of labels 12 are pasted at regular intervals;
The label 12 is peeled off and supplied from each release tape 22, and for each release tape 22, there are bearing members 23, 23 that pivotally support the release tape 22 so that the release tape 22 can be freely fed out, and a feeder that feeds the release tape 22 by sandwiching the supported release tape 22 therebetween. rollers 24, 25
, a guide roller 26 that guides the release tape 22 , a peeling table 27 that partially peels off one label 12 by rapidly folding the released peeling tape 22 , and a peeling table 27 located at the tip of the peeling table 27 . Label 1 peeled off
2, and when the label sensor 28 detects the label 12, the feeding roller 24,
25 is configured to stop.

The above-mentioned label 12 is formed by applying an adhesive that is compatible with the area to be bonded and other bonding conditions to one side of a base material made of a material that exhibits almost no elasticity, such as paper, cut into a predetermined shape. They are attached to the release tape 22 at predetermined intervals.

Further, the labeling means 13 includes two suction pads 33, 33 that can be switched and connected to a suction source 31 and a compressed air source 32 by means of a solenoid valve 30, and these suction pads 33,

(The position indicated by the chain line in FIG. 1). When the label 12 is sucked at the first position A,
Each suction pad 33, 33 is connected to a suction source 31 by a solenoid valve 30.
When applying the label 12 at the second position B, each suction pad 33, 33 is connected to the compressed air source 32, and the label 12 is applied with part of the label 12 protruding outside the sheet 2 by air pressure. It is something. In this case, in order to prevent the part of the label 12 that protrudes from the sheet 2 from adhering to the table 5, the table surface must maintain releasability or a step is formed at a position corresponding to the label part that protrudes from the sheet 2. It is desirable to take measures such as keeping the

Furthermore, the take-out means 14 for taking out the work instruction sheet 15 with the label 12 pasted from the table 5 consists of two suction pads 37, 37 connected to a suction source 36 via a solenoid valve 35. , 37 are at the first position C (solid line position in FIG. 2) where the work instruction sheet 15 is taken out from the table 5, and at the second position D (position shown by the solid line in FIG. It is arranged so that it can be moved freely between the position indicated by the chain line). The suction pads 37, 37 and the cutter 10 operate in conjunction with each other, and the suction pads 37, 37 are in the first position C.
When moving from to the second position D, the cutter 10 traverses the sheet 2 and cuts the sheet 2.

In the manufacturing apparatus 3 having the above configuration, the continuous sheet 2 output from the computer printer is transferred to the rollers 8 and 9.
The sheet is fed onto the table 5, and its leading edge is detected by the sheet sensor 19, thereby stopping at a predetermined position.

In the label supply mechanism 11, a feeding roller 24,
The peeling tape 22 is fed out by the peeling tape 25, and is abruptly folded back at the tip of the peeling table 27, thereby removing the label 1.

A work instruction sheet 15 is formed as a ticket with numbers 2 and 12 attached. This work instruction sheet 15 includes the suction pad 37,
37, and the first position C of the suction pads 37, 37
It is taken out by moving to the outside. The drive roller 8 is operated in conjunction with the movement of the suction pads 37, 37 from the second position D to the first position C, and the sheet 2 is sent onto the table 5 again.

In this way, the work instruction sheet 15 in the form of a single sheet to which the label 12 is attached is automatically produced from the continuous sheet 2 output from the computer printer.

The manufactured work instruction sheet 15 can be used as it is by a worker by pasting it on an appropriate location, but it is preferable to use a label 12 pre-formed in a predetermined shape from a material that exhibits almost no elasticity as an adhesive piece. This label 1
2 does not expand and contract like adhesive tape, so
By pasting the label 12, the work instruction sheet 15 will not be warped.

The series of operations described above are automatically controlled by the computer that outputs the sheet 2 or by a separately provided computer according to a predetermined program.

In addition, in the above embodiment, two labels 12, 12 are attached to the sheet 2, but one or three or more labels may be attached, and in these cases, the label It goes without saying that the supply mechanism 11 and the label pasting means 13 are each configured to suit the number of labels.

Further, in the label pasting means 13, the pasting of the label 12 by the suction pads 33, 33 is performed by the suction pads 33.
