[0009] Preferably, the classification definition interface includes a common feature definition interface, through which users can set the common features and optional features of the final-level material nodes; by collecting the common feature information and optional feature information, the number of features of the same type of material can be limited.

[0036] The first objective of this invention is to provide a material definition method, which includes the following steps:
[0037] S1. Storage material characteristic library;
[0038] See Figure 1 The system categorizes and defines the attribute characteristics of several materials, creating a hierarchical feature classification tree. The attribute characteristics are categorized into seven main classes: "Material Type," "Material Name," "Serial Number," "Manufacturing Type," "Material," "Surface Effect," and "Pre-processing Technology." These main classes are then further subdivided into sub-classes. For example, under the "Material" category, sub-classes such as "Injection Molding Material," "Stamping Material," and "Die Casting Material" can be created, forming a hierarchical feature classification tree. It's important to note that the number of levels in the attribute characteristic classification can be increased according to user needs. Finally, specific feature values are added to the final node of each attribute characteristic category to generate an attribute characteristic. When setting the final attribute characteristic, methods such as... Figure 2 The feature value acquisition interface shown collects the attribute features to be added. The feature acquisition interface includes collecting the "feature value", "alias" and "identification code" of the attribute feature to form a new attribute feature. Through the above steps, several attribute features are generated to form a material feature library.
[0039] S2. Store map number feature library
[0040] See Figure 3 The drawing number feature library includes drawing number generation rules for establishing the general assembly drawing number feature library, the sub-assembly drawing number feature library, and the part drawing number feature library, specifically:
[0041] First, the classification information of the general assembly drawing, sub-assembly drawing, and part drawing is collected. Preferably, a material feature library list can be set up, which maps the material feature library. The classification information is collected through the material feature library list. This allows the drawing number feature library and the material feature library to be associated in terms of feature type, which makes subsequent material management more convenient.
[0042] like Figure 4 In the drawing number feature library tree diagram acquisition interface, in the part drawing number feature library setting drawing number type classification, the feature data of "manufacturing type" in the material feature library is called, and the four types "YZ" (die casting), "CY" (stamping), "ZS" (injection molding) and "WJ" (hardware) are selected as the second level. Then, the final level part types "DZ" (forging) and "SB" (handle) are selected in the material feature library list to complete the drawing number classification.
[0043] After the map number type classification is defined, map number feature information is collected from the last-level node of one type of map number to form map number features with feature information, which is convenient for understanding and identifying the map number.
[0044] See Figure 5 The map number feature information collection interface includes map number attribute feature description item 4, map number description item 5, and map number basic information description item 6;
[0045] The drawing number attribute feature description item 4 maps to the material feature library. When the user clicks the "Add" button, a list of attribute features mapped to the material feature library will pop up. The collection of drawing number attribute features is completed according to the user's selection; see also Figure 6 As mentioned above, the user added three annotation features, namely "material", "pre-processing technology" and "surface effect", through the attribute feature list, so that the drawing numbers under the "SB" category all inherit the above three annotation features. It should be noted that the above annotation features can be a category or a single attribute feature.
[0046] The figure number description item 5 is used to describe different names of the selected feature, including feature value description item, alias description item, and identification code description item. The feature value description can be a specific uppercase letter or symbol or a combination of both to refer to the annotation feature. Similarly, users can also use the "alias" and "identification code" of the selected annotation feature to define the alias description item and identification code description item, so as to facilitate users to more clearly identify the material.
[0047] The drawing number basic information description item 6 is used to describe the basic information of the material, which includes a drawing number description item and an annotation feature description item. The drawing number description item is used to describe the classification level that defines the drawing number, and the annotation feature description item is used to describe the important annotation features that define the drawing number.
[0048] This setting uses material attribute characteristics to define and describe drawing numbers, so that the description of drawing numbers is no longer limited to numerical coding, but can be defined in a more vivid and clear way, which facilitates material maintenance and management, and also makes it easier to look up later.
[0049] Once all the above settings are complete, the system will generate corresponding material drawing numbers according to the settings and drawing number generation rules, forming a drawing number list. Several drawing number lists will form the drawing number library. The drawing number feature library is the drawing number database.
[0050] Similarly, establish the general assembly drawing number library, the sub-assembly drawing number library, and the part drawing number library in the same manner as described above.
[0051] S3. Receive the classification definition information of materials and form a hierarchical material classification tree diagram;
[0052] See Figure 8 The material classification tree diagram interface first establishes material type, finished product type and material name classification according to the hierarchy. That is, the material is first defined as the material type of finished product, and then the material is defined as two finished product types: parts and products. Next, the material is divided into material name types such as switches, sockets, VDI sockets and electronic switches. Finally, the bottom-level material nodes are created under the corresponding material name types. After the material nodes are created, the attribute characteristics of the material nodes can be defined and described.
[0053] In the process of classifying and defining materials, the material category can be used as a special material characteristic to describe and define the material; that is, it is a classification definition. Continuing with the example of the material "switch product," its classification generates three category characteristics: Material Type → "Finished Product," Finished Product Type → "Product," and Material Name Type → "Switch." Since classification has a hierarchical relationship, lower-level classification nodes inherit the category characteristics of higher-level classification nodes. Therefore, the lowest-level material node, "switch product," will inherit the three category characteristics of Material Type, Finished Product Type, and Material Name Type. This setup allows for matching the corresponding preliminary material characteristics immediately after the initial classification of the material, making the description and definition of the material much faster.
[0054] S4. Collect material features selected by the user from the material feature library and drawing number feature library through the material information collection interface. The material information collection interface can be other forms of collection interface. The collection of material feature library features can be done through a material feature library list or by user input. Specifically:
[0055] like Figure 9 The material information acquisition interface shown is an attribute feature acquisition interface. Taking the material node "Switch Product" as an example, activating the current "Switch Product" material node allows this attribute feature acquisition interface to call up the material feature library data, such as... Figure 9 Collect the corresponding attribute feature values from the "digit number", "polarity" and "additional functions" attributes on the left, so as to ultimately form the definition of the "switch" of the material node and generate a material with detailed description features.
[0056] See Figure 10 and Figure 12 Activate the drawing number feature acquisition interface. The right side of this material information acquisition interface will call the drawing number list of the drawing number feature library. By collecting the drawing number information entered by the user in this material information acquisition interface, the drawing number feature acquisition of the material is completed.
[0057] As a preferred solution, to avoid users having to select attributes from a massive material feature library every time they add a description, the range of selectable attributes can be limited at each level when defining material categories. That is, when defining a category, common and optional feature descriptions can be defined first. Subsequent sub-categories can then directly inherit the common and optional features collected by the parent node. This setting narrows the range of selectable attributes. (See...) Figure 11 ), activate the material common feature definition interface, which includes material description item 1, attribute feature description item 2 and basic information description item 3;
[0058] The material description item 1 maps to the material feature library. When the user triggers the "Add" button, a list of attribute features mapped to the material feature library pops up. Through user selection and input, the collection of material attribute features can be completed. Specifically, the material description item 1 is set with common feature description items and optional feature description items. The common feature description items are used to set common features. By activating the attribute feature list mapped to the material feature library, the user selects the required common feature to complete the information input. When a parent category node sets common attribute features, its lower category nodes will inherit the selected common features. Similarly, the user sets the input of optional features through the same operation. Optional feature description items are used to limit the feature selection range of lower category nodes. That is, when the parent category node selects several optional features, after inheriting the common features of the parent, it can also select additional attribute features from the several optional features of the parent category node. This allows for quick selection of attribute features and can compensate for incomplete descriptions of common features. It should be noted that the common features and optional features can be a category or a single attribute feature.
[0059] The attribute feature description item 2 is used to describe different names for the selected attribute feature, including three description names: "main description", "auxiliary description" and "remark description". The three description names can collect information from "feature value", "alias" and "identification code". The "feature value" can be a specific uppercase letter or symbol or a combination of both to refer to the material. Users can use the "main description" item and the "auxiliary description" item to describe the feature, or use all three description names to describe the feature at the same time.
[0060] When the "Main Description" item collects information category features and / or attribute features, the "feature value", "alias" and "identification code" of the collected category features and / or attribute features will become the description of the "Main Description" item, while the category features and / or attribute features that are not collected will be set in the "Auxiliary Description" item. This setting can display the characteristics of the material in a targeted manner, making it easier for users to identify the material more clearly.
[0061] The basic information description item 3 is used to describe the basic information of the material, which includes "material code", "category name", "process attribute", "unit of measurement", "process attribute" and "quality grade". The basic information of the material is collected by collecting the specific parameter feature values corresponding to the material by the user inputting and / or selecting them on the prompt interface.
[0062] S6. Output the material characteristics based on the collected material characteristic library features and drawing number characteristic library features, as follows: Figure 13The material feature list shown is the last-level material node of the material classification tree diagram. This material feature list includes the material feature library features and the drawing number feature library features received by the last-level material node.
[0063] In addition, to facilitate rapid material identification later, materials and drawing numbers can be coded. The following example briefly illustrates the specific methods for material coding and drawing number coding. (See also...) Figure 14 The material code first receives the user-defined coding sorting rules. These rules are initially generated based on the drawing number type. For example, if the part drawing is classified under "YZ" (die casting) and then "SB" (handle), the initial generated sorting would be YZ + SB + "variable". The "variable" unit can be selected according to the user's specific needs, such as being defined as "date" and / or "serial number". Furthermore, the order of each unit can be modified by dragging and dropping. See also... Figure 15 and Figure 16 After the coding and sorting rules are set, specific feature values are collected based on the coding cabinet and the coding rule interface.
[0064] The coding of materials is basically the same as that of drawing numbers, so it will not be repeated here.
[0065] See Figure 17 This solution first establishes two feature libraries by classifying and defining the attribute characteristics and drawing number characteristics of the materials. Then, it classifies and defines the materials according to their types to form a hierarchical material classification tree diagram. Finally, attribute characteristics and drawing number characteristics are completed at the last-level material nodes of the material classification tree diagram. Finally, the material results are output through a material feature list.
[0066] Compared with existing technologies, this invention describes and defines material characteristics through two dimensions: attribute features and drawing number features. These features define and describe the appearance and function of the material, making the description, definition, and classification of the material clearer, more precise, and more comprehensive. At the same time, since the attribute features and drawing number features are selected from a feature library, the terminology used in the description is standardized and consistent, avoiding subjective human descriptions and definitions. This facilitates the maintenance and management of the material and makes it easier to query later.
[0067] A second objective of this invention is to provide a drawing number definition method that stores a material feature library; receives drawing number classification definition information, and forms a drawing number classification tree diagram with hierarchical relationships;
[0068] Activate the last-level map number node of the map number classification tree diagram, and receive the attribute features collected through the map number feature information collection interface; display the collected attribute features on the map number feature information collection interface.
[0069] Preferably, the drawing number feature information acquisition interface is mapped to the material feature library, so that the drawing number feature information acquisition interface can call the data of the material feature library.
[0070] The description of drawing numbers is no longer limited to a string of numbers, symbols, or letters, but is described through material attribute characteristics. This allows for a more vivid and clear definition of drawing numbers. Furthermore, since the material attribute characteristics are based on material attribute characteristic data from a material characteristic library, this ensures consistent and standardized terminology when describing drawing numbers, avoiding inconsistencies caused by human error.
[0071] The third objective of the invention is to provide a storage medium, characterized in that: the storage medium stores the material definition method of the first objective.
