Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a setting data supplying device, a setting data sharing system, and a setting data supplying method. [Background technology]
[0002] Conventionally, when manufacturing rebar mesh units with rebars arranged, shop drawings for the rebar arrangement work are created using CAD (Computer Aided Design) or similar. Then, the assembly work of the rebar prefabricated units is generally carried out based on these shop drawings. The assembly work of these rebar prefabricated units is mainly carried out by hand, with the rebars arranged one by one. When handling thick or long rebars in large-scale construction projects, the weight of each rebar can be heavy depending on the type of rebar, and when placing such rebars, multiple workers must carry each rebar to the designated location and place it in place. This rebar placement work is very hard work, so in some cases, the work is carried out using rebar placement devices or rebar placement robots (see Patent Document 1 below). Recently, engineers have been reading the information necessary for the reinforcement device from the CAD drawing based on the reinforcement diagram, and setting the data on the control panel (touch panel, etc.) of the reinforcement device via an operation panel. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]
[0003] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 4-347264 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0004] However, when setting data on the control panel of the reinforcing bar arrangement device, the engineer needs to have the knowledge to accurately read various information from the reinforcing bar arrangement drawing on CAD, and also the knowledge to accurately set the data on the reinforcing bar arrangement device. Therefore, it takes considerable training and skill to be able to operate it easily. Furthermore, depending on the type of rebar mesh unit, it may be necessary to finely adjust the projection dimensions of the rebar ends. In this case, the engineer must read the projection dimensions of the rebar from the CAD construction drawings, perform calculations to convert the results into the coordinate system of the rebar placement device, and then input the setting data into the control panel of the rebar placement device. Doing this manually requires knowledge and is a heavy burden to set up the data.
[0005] The present invention has been made in consideration of the above circumstances, and its purpose is to provide a setting data supply device, a setting data sharing system, and a setting data supply method that can easily supply setting data corresponding to construction drawings for setting in a reinforcement device. [Means for solving the problem]
[0006] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, one aspect of the present invention is a setting data supply device capable of supplying setting data to a reinforcement device that places vertical and horizontal reinforcement, the setting data supply device having an analysis unit that acquires the placement positions and pitches of the reinforcing bars by analyzing them based on line geometry information representing the reinforcing bars in a reinforcement drawing that represents the reinforcement unit to be reinforced, and an output unit that outputs the acquired setting data including the placement positions and pitches of the reinforcing bars.
[0007] Another aspect of the present invention is a setting data sharing system including the above-mentioned setting data supply device and a terminal device, wherein the terminal device wirelessly transmits the setting data acquired from the setting data supply device to a reinforcement device.
[0008] Another aspect of the present invention is a setting data supply method executed by a computer capable of supplying setting data to a reinforcement device that places vertical and horizontal reinforcement, the setting data supply method including: acquiring the placement positions and pitches of the reinforcing bars by analyzing them based on line geometry information representing the reinforcing bars in a reinforcement drawing that represents the reinforcement unit to be reinforced; and outputting the acquired setting data including the placement positions and pitches of the reinforcing bars. [Effects of the Invention]
[0009] As described above, according to the present invention, setting data corresponding to the working drawings for setting in the reinforcement arrangement device can be easily supplied. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0011] A reinforcement bar setting data supply device according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an automatic reinforcing bar prefabricated unit reinforcing bar arrangement system S equipped with a reinforcing bar arrangement setting data supply device according to one embodiment of the present invention. The automatic reinforcing bar prefabricated unit reinforcing bar arrangement system S includes a control room CR, a reinforcing bar arrangement device 100, a design data generation device 200, a setting data supply device 300, a terminal device T, and a printer PR. The design data generating device 200 supplies design data related to the arrangement of reinforcing bars to the setting data supplying device 300. The setting data supplying device 300 generates various setting data for arranging reinforcing bar units using the reinforcing bar arrangement device 100 based on the design data, and outputs the setting data to the terminal device T or the printer PR. The terminal device T inputs the setting data output from the setting data supply device 300 to an operating condition management device installed in the control room. The printer PR prints, on a printing medium, a two-dimensional barcode representing the setting data output from the setting data supply device 300. The setting data can be input to the operating condition management device by having the operating condition management device read the two-dimensional barcode printed by the printer PR. The operating condition management device sets the operating conditions according to the setting data by writing them into the bar arrangement device 100 as operating condition data for the bar arrangement device 100 .
[0012] The reinforcing bar arrangement device 100 operates based on conditions corresponding to the operating condition data set by the operating condition management device, thereby arranging the reinforcing bars. The reinforcement arrangement device 100 includes a reinforcement stand 1, a curved reinforcement arrangement device 2, and a straight reinforcement arrangement device 3.
[0013] Fig. 2 is a perspective view showing a reinforcing bar unit arranged by the reinforcing bar arrangement device 100. Fig. 3 is a plan view showing a reinforcing bar unit arranged by the reinforcing bar arrangement device 100. As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the length direction of the curved reinforcement A along the horizontal direction is defined as the curved reinforcement direction X, and the length direction of the straight reinforcement B along the horizontal direction is defined as the straight reinforcement direction Y. The curved reinforcement direction X and the straight reinforcement direction Y are perpendicular to each other. The reinforcement arrangement device 100 arranges a reinforcing bar unit D in which multiple curved reinforcement A and multiple straight reinforcement B are perpendicular to each other. The multiple curved reinforcement A are arranged at intervals in the straight reinforcement direction Y. The multiple straight reinforcement B are arranged at intervals in the curved reinforcement direction X.
[0014] As shown in FIG. 1, the reinforcement frame 1 has a support base 10, a curved reinforcement support base 11, and a straight reinforcement support base 16.
[0015] The support base 10 is installed on an installation surface. The support base 10 has a framework shape with a lattice formed inside the four-sided frame, for example, made up of multiple members extending in the curved muscle direction X and multiple members extending in the straight muscle direction Y.
[0016] The support base 10 is provided with a pair of rails 18, 18 that support a curved reinforcing bar arrangement device 2 (described later) so that it can move in the straight reinforcing bar direction Y. The pair of rails 18, 18 are provided at both ends of the support base 10 in the curved reinforcing bar direction X. The rails 18 extend in the straight reinforcing bar direction Y.
[0017] The support base 10 is provided with a pair of rails 19, 19 that support the linear reinforcing bar arrangement device 3 (described later) so that it can move in the curved reinforcing bar direction X. The pair of rails 19, 19 are provided at both ends of the support base 10 in the linear reinforcing bar direction Y. The rails 19 extend in the curved reinforcing bar direction X.
[0018] The curved bar support stand 11 has multiple curved bar support members 12. The curved bar support members 12 are linear members extending in the linear bar direction Y. The curved bar support members 12 are supported by a support base 10. The multiple curved bar support members 12 are arranged at intervals in the curved bar direction X. Since the curved bar A has a shape that is convex toward the center and upward in the curved bar direction X, among the multiple curved bar support members 12, the curved bar support members 12 arranged toward the center of the curved bar direction X are arranged higher than the curved bar support members 12 arranged at the end sides of the curved bar direction X. The curved bar support members 12 have multiple downwardly recessed grooves 12a formed at intervals in the linear bar direction Y. The curved bars A are placed in the grooves 12a.
[0019] The straight bar support stand 16 has multiple straight bar support members 17. The straight bar support members 17 are curved members that extend in the curved bar direction X and convex upward. The straight bar support members 17 are supported by the support base 10. The multiple straight bar support members 17 are arranged at intervals in the straight bar direction Y. The straight bar support members 17 have multiple downwardly recessed grooves 17a formed at intervals in the curved bar direction X. Straight bars B are placed in the grooves 17a.
[0020] The curved reinforcement arrangement device 2 can move the support base 10 in the straight reinforcement direction Y. The curved reinforcement arrangement device 2 moves from the position shown in FIG. 1 to one side Y1 in the straight reinforcement direction Y to the start point 1A, and then moves to the other side Y2 in the straight reinforcement direction Y, while arranging curved reinforcement A in the groove 12a of the curved reinforcement receiving member 12.
[0021] The straight reinforcing bar arrangement device 3 can move the support base 10 in the curved reinforcing bar direction X. The straight reinforcing bar arrangement device 3 moves from the position shown in Fig. 1 to one side X1 in the curved reinforcing bar direction X to the start point 1A, and then moves to the other side X2 in the curved reinforcing bar direction X while placing straight reinforcing bars B in the grooves 17a of the straight reinforcing bar receiving member 17. Note that the straight reinforcing bar arrangement device 3 may be configured to arrange straight reinforcing bars B, and then the curved reinforcing bar arrangement device 2 may arrange curved reinforcing bars A. After the curved reinforcement A and the straight reinforcement B are arranged, they are tied together with a tie wire at the points where they intersect. This tying may be done by a worker.
[0022] Fig. 4 is a perspective view showing the straight reinforcing bar arrangement device, and Fig. 5 is a front view showing the reinforcing bar arrangement device. The mechanisms provided in the curved reinforcing bar arrangement device 2 and the straight reinforcing bar arrangement device 3 will be explained using the drawings of the straight reinforcing bar arrangement device 3. As shown in Fig. 4, the curved reinforcing bar arrangement device 2 and the straight reinforcing bar arrangement device 3 each include a device main body 20, a reinforcing bar placing section 21, a reinforcing bar push-up section (not shown), a reinforcing bar delivery section 23, a reinforcing bar temporary placement section 25, a staggered adjustment device (staggered reinforcing bar arrangement mechanism) 5, and a reinforcing bar holding device 27.
[0023] The device main body 20 is movable in the curved bar direction X relative to the support base 10. A plurality of straight bars B can be placed on the upper side of the reinforcing bar placing section 21. The straight bars B placed on the reinforcing bar placing section 21 have not yet been arranged by the reinforcing bar arrangement gripping device 27. The reinforcing bar placing section 21 is configured to arrange the plurality of straight bars B close to one side X1. For example, the reinforcing bar placing section 21 has an axis oriented in the straight bar direction Y and is equipped with a conveyor that rotates so that the upper side moves to one side X1.
[0024] The reinforcing bar push-up unit is movable upward and downward and pushes upward the straight bars B that are positioned nearest to one side X1 among the plurality of straight bars B placed on the reinforcing bar placing unit 21.
[0025] The upper surface of the reinforcing bar feed-out section 23 is gradually inclined downward as it approaches the one side X1. The straight bar B pushed up by the reinforcing bar push-up section moves by rolling along the upper surface of the reinforcing bar feed-out section 23 toward the one side X1.
[0026] The reinforcing bar temporary storage section 25 is capable of placing the straight reinforcing bars B that have been moved by rolling on the upper surface of the reinforcing bar delivery section 23. The reinforcing bar temporary storage section 25 is configured to be able to move the straight reinforcing bars B to one side Y1.
[0027] The bar arrangement gripping device 27 picks up the straight bars B positioned by the zigzag adjustment device 5 described later, and arranges them in the grooves 17a of the straight bar receiving member 17.
[0028] FIG. 6 is an enlarged view of a portion VI in FIG. As shown in Figure 6, in reinforcing bar unit D, multiple curved bars A are arranged alternately with adjacent reinforcing bars in the straight bar direction Y at different positions in the curved bar direction X. The length of the difference in positions in the curved bar direction X is defined as the staggered amount L1. Multiple straight bars B are arranged alternately with adjacent reinforcing bars in the curved bar direction X at different positions in the straight bar direction Y. The length of the difference in positions in the straight bar direction Y is defined as the staggered amount M1.
[0029] A curved muscle A whose end is positioned closer to the other side X2 is called curved muscle A1. A curved muscle A whose end is positioned set back more to one side X1 than curved muscle A1 is called curved muscle A2. A straight muscle B whose end is positioned closer to one side Y1 is called straight muscle B1. A straight muscle B whose end is positioned set back more to the other side Y2 than straight muscle B1 is called straight muscle B2.
[0030] The straight reinforcing bar B located closest to the other side X2 is called the end reinforcing bar BX. The length from the reinforcing bar center of the end reinforcing bar BX to the end A1a of the curved reinforcing bar A1 is called the reinforcing bar projection dimension L2. The curved reinforcing bar A located closest to one side Y1 is called the end reinforcing bar AY. The length from the reinforcing bar center of the end reinforcing bar AY to the end B1a of the straight reinforcing bar B1 is called the reinforcing bar projection dimension M2.
[0031] The configuration of the zigzag adjustment device 5 will be described. The stagger adjustment device 5 is provided with a mechanism that can finely adjust and set the stagger amounts L1 and M1 described in the rebar arrangement drawings that are the basis for manufacturing Figures 3 and 6, based on the mechanical conditions of the reinforcement frame 1, curved reinforcement arrangement device 2, and straight reinforcement arrangement device 3.
[0032] Curved reinforcement A installed in the curved reinforcement arrangement device 2 is arranged with reference to the other side X2 of curved reinforcement A. Straight reinforcement B installed in the straight reinforcement arrangement device 3 is arranged with reference to one side Y1 of straight reinforcement B. For this reason, as shown in Figure 1, the staggered adjustment device 5 is installed on the other side X2 of the curved reinforcement arrangement device 2. The staggered adjustment device 5 of the curved reinforcement arrangement device 2 arranges the ends of curved reinforcement A in a staggered pattern in the curved reinforcement direction X (staggered reinforcement). The staggered adjustment device 5 is installed on one side Y1 of the straight reinforcement arrangement device 3. The staggered adjustment device 5 of the straight reinforcement arrangement device 3 arranges the ends of straight reinforcement B in a staggered pattern in the straight reinforcement direction Y (staggered reinforcement).
[0033] 7 to 10 are perspective views showing the zigzag adjustment device 5. FIG. The following describes a staggered adjustment device 5 mounted on a linear reinforcing bar arrangement device 3 that arranges the ends of linear reinforcing bars B in a staggered pattern in the linear reinforcing bar direction (first direction) Y. As shown in Fig. 7, the staggered adjustment device 5 includes an apparatus support part 50, a reinforcing bar moving part (placing part) 51, a first stopper part 52, a second stopper part 53 (see Fig. 10), and a position adjustment part 54.
[0034] The device support part 50 is fixed to the device main body part 20 (see Figure 4) of the straight reinforcing bar arrangement device 3. The reinforcing bar moving part 51 is provided so as to be movable in the straight reinforcing bar direction Y relative to the device support part 50. Straight reinforcing bars B can be placed on the reinforcing bar moving part 51. The device support part 50 is provided with a switching valve 501 which switches between allowing the reinforcing bar moving part 51 to move in the straight reinforcing bar direction Y and stopping its movement.
[0035] FIG. 11 is a perspective view showing a state in which the straight line B1 is positioned by the first stopper portion 52. As shown in FIG. 11, the first stopper portion 52 is fixed to the reinforcing bar moving portion 51 so as to protrude upward from the upper surface of the reinforcing bar moving portion 51. An end portion B1a of the straight reinforcing bar (first reinforcing bar) B1 that has been moved to one side Y1 by the reinforcing bar temporary placement portion 25 (see FIG. 4) abuts against the first stopper portion 52, and its movement is restricted to one side Y1. The first stopper portion 52 positions the end portion B1a of the straight reinforcing bar B1.
[0036] FIG. 12 is a perspective view showing a state in which the straight line B2 is positioned by the second stopper portion 53. As shown in FIG. As shown in Figures 9 and 10, the second stopper portion 53 is provided so as to be able to protrude and retract in the vertical direction from the top surface of the reinforcing bar moving portion 51. As shown in Figure 12, when the second stopper portion 53 protrudes upward, the end B2a of the straight reinforcing bar (second reinforcing bar) B2 that has been moved to one side Y1 by the reinforcing bar temporary placement portion 25 abuts against the second stopper portion 53, thereby restricting its movement to the one side Y1. The second stopper portion 53 positions the end B2a of the straight reinforcing bar B2. Note that when the straight reinforcing bar B1 is placed on the reinforcing bar moving portion 51, the second stopper portion 53 moves downward, allowing the straight reinforcing bar B1 to move above the second stopper portion 53 to the one side Y1.
[0037] The position adjustment unit 54 adjusts the position of the reinforcing bar moving unit 51 in the straight bar direction Y, and sets the positions of the first stopper unit 52 and the second stopper unit 53 in the straight bar direction Y.
[0038] The position adjustment unit 54 can move the rebar moving unit 51 to a predetermined position in the straight bar direction Y by loosening the handle 55. The position adjustment unit 54 can fix the rebar moving unit 51 to a predetermined position by tightening the handle 55.
[0039] FIG. 13 is a diagram showing the adjustment range of the zigzag adjustment device 5. As shown in FIG. As shown in Figure 13, the center of the rail 19 extending in the curved bar direction (second direction) X is defined as the rail core 19c. When the rebar moving part 51 of the staggered adjustment device 5 is moved farthest from the rail core 19c, the distance from the rail core 19c to the first stopper part 52 is defined as TTL. When the rebar moving part 51 of the staggered adjustment device 5 is moved closest to the rail core 19c, the distance from the rail core 19c to the first stopper part 52 is defined as STL. TTL and STL are the distances from the rail core 19c to the surface where the first stopper part 52 abuts against the straight bar B.
[0040] In the following description, as an example, STL=150 mm and TTL=550 mm. The movement amount of the reinforcing bar moving part 51 in the straight bar direction Y is 400 mm.
[0041] FIG. 14 is a diagram showing the stopper adjustment amount. As shown in Fig. 14, the distance from the end reinforcement AY, which is arranged at the position closest to the rail core 19c among the multiple curved reinforcements A, to the rail core 19c is defined as BL. BL is set to 450 mm.
[0042] The distance from the end reinforcing bar AY to the end B1a of the straight reinforcing bar B1 is defined as LP. LP is the same as the reinforcing bar projection dimension M2 in Figure 6. LP is set to 50 mm.
[0043] The position adjustment unit 54 uses BL, LP, and STL to adjust the rebar moving unit 51 in the straight bar direction Y in accordance with the stopper adjustment amount C calculated by the following formula (1).
[0044] C=BL-LP-STL…(1) where: C: Stopper adjustment amount BL: Distance from the end reinforcing bar that is closest to the rail core among the multiple reinforcing bars that intersect the first and second reinforcing bars to the rail core LP: Distance from the end bar to the end of the first rebar STL: Distance from the rail center to the first stopper when the first stopper is closest to the rail center
[0045] With the above settings, C = 450 - 50 - 150 = 250 mm.
[0046] The operation and behavior of the zigzag adjustment device 5 will now be described. The lever of the switching valve 501 of the stagger adjustment device 5 is lowered, and the rebar moving part 51 is moved to one side Y1, as shown in Figures 7 and 8. The handle 55 is loosened. As shown in Figure 9, the position of the handle 55 is adjusted to match the calculated stopper adjustment amount C. The handle 55 is tightened. The lever of the switching valve 501 is raised. The rebar moving part 51 moves to the position adjusted by the stopper adjustment amount C. This sets the positions of the first stopper part 52 and the second stopper part 53 in the straight bar direction Y.
[0047] When the second stopper 53 is moved downward, the end B1a of the straight reinforcing bar B1, which has been moved to the one side Y1 by the reinforcing bar temporary placement part 25, comes into contact with the first stopper 52 and is restricted from moving to the one side Y1. Thereafter, the reinforcing bar arrangement gripping device 27 scoops up the straight reinforcing bar B1 and arranges it in the groove 17a of the straight reinforcing bar receiving member 17 (first position).
[0048] Thereafter, the second stopper portion 53 protrudes upward. The end portion B2a of the straight reinforcing bar B2, which has been moved to one side Y1 by the reinforcing bar temporary placement portion 25, abuts against the second stopper portion 53, and its movement to one side Y1 is restricted. Thereafter, the reinforcing bar arrangement gripping device 27 scoops up the straight reinforcing bar B1 and arranges it in the groove portion 17a of the straight reinforcing bar receiving member 17 (second position). The second stopper portion 53 repeatedly moves downward and protrudes upward.
[0049] The staggered adjustment device 5 mounted on the curved reinforcement arrangement device 2 arranges the curved reinforcement A in a staggered pattern in the curved reinforcement direction X, and has the same configuration as the staggered adjustment device 5 mounted on the straight reinforcement arrangement device 3, so its explanation will be omitted.
[0050] In the reinforcement arrangement device 100 configured in this manner, the zigzag adjustment device 5 of the straight reinforcement arrangement device 3 positions the end B1a of the straight reinforcement B1 with the first stopper portion 52, thereby placing the straight reinforcement B1 in a first position. The end B2a of the straight reinforcement B2 is positioned with the second stopper portion 53, thereby placing the straight reinforcement B2 in a second position. The position adjustment portion 54 adjusts the positions of the first stopper portion 52 and the second stopper portion 53 in the straight reinforcement direction Y. Therefore, by operating the position adjustment portion 54, the positions of the end portions B1a and B2a of the straight reinforcement B1 and B2 can be easily adjusted.
[0051] Moreover, by adjusting the position adjusting unit 54 in accordance with the stopper adjustment amount C calculated by the formula (1), the positions of the ends B1a, B2a of the straight lines B1, B2 can be easily adjusted.
[0052] The second stopper portion 53 is provided so as to be able to appear and disappear in the vertical direction on the rebar moving portion 51. When setting it to the first position, the second stopper portion 53 is simply moved downward, so that switching between the first position and the second position can be easily performed.
[0053] Furthermore, by using the reinforcement arrangement device 100, it is possible to expect improvements in the above-mentioned work, increased safety, and labor savings, as well as shortening the reinforcement arrangement work time itself.
[0054] In addition, by combining the reinforcement device 100 with a QR code (registered trademark) creation system that reads reinforcement positions, etc., there is the advantage that operation data can be easily set, which can also be used to improve the work efficiency and quality of the entire reinforcement work.
[0055] In addition, the adjustment amount is automatically calculated by the QR code (registered trademark) creation system when creating the operating data of the automatic reinforcing bar prefabricated reinforcement device, and can be inserted into the reinforcement drawing as the stopper adjustment amount C along with the QR code (registered trademark).
[0056] The shapes and combinations of the components shown in the above-described embodiment are merely examples, and various modifications can be made based on design requirements, etc., within the scope of the present invention.
[0057] For example, in the embodiment described above, a parameter based on the distance from the rail center line 19c is used when calculating the stopper adjustment amount C, but the reference line may be other than the rail center line 19c.
[0058] Next, FIG. 15 is a schematic system configuration diagram showing the schematic system configuration of the automatic reinforcing bar prefabricated unit reinforcing bar arrangement system S. In this figure, the automatic reinforcing bar prefabricated unit reinforcing bar arrangement system S includes a control room CR, a reinforcing bar arrangement device 100, a design data generation device 200, a setting data supply device 300, a terminal device T, and a printer PR.
[0059] The design data generating device 200 is connected to the setting data supplying device 300 via a communication cable or the like, and communicates with the setting data supplying device 300 . The design data generating device 200 generates design data related to the arrangement of reinforcing bars using CAD or BIM (Building Information Modeling) based on the operation details input by an operator via an input device. The design data is, for example, a reinforcement drawing. In this embodiment, the reinforcement drawing is described as two-dimensional drawing data. The design data generating device 200 may be, for example, a CAD device. Here, in the design data, all reinforcing bars are described by polylines.
[0060] The setting data supply device 300 is connected to the design data generating device 200 via a communication cable, and is also connected to the printer PR and the terminal device T so as to be able to communicate with each other via wire or wirelessly. The setting data supply device 300 acquires design data from the design data generation device 200, generates setting data (operating condition data) according to the acquired setting data, and outputs the generated setting data to the terminal device T or the printer PR. Terminal device T is connected to setting data supplying device 300 wirelessly or via a wired connection, and acquires the setting data output from setting data supplying device 300. Terminal device T may be any of a smartphone, tablet, mobile phone, laptop computer, etc. The terminal device T may input the setting data to the operating condition management device OC by wirelessly transmitting the setting data to the operating condition management device OC, or by displaying a two-dimensional barcode representing the setting data on the display screen of the terminal device T and having the operating condition management device OC read the two-dimensional barcode.
[0061] The printer PR is connected wirelessly or by wire to the setting data supplying device 300, acquires the setting data output from the setting data supplying device 300, and prints a two-dimensional barcode representing the acquired setting data on a printing medium. The printing medium on which the two-dimensional barcode is printed can be read by an operator with the operating condition management device OC, allowing the setting data to be input into the operating condition management device OC.
[0062] The operating condition control device OC is installed in a control room CR. The control room CR is installed near the reinforcement bar arrangement device 100. The operating condition management device OC has an acquisition unit OCa and a communication unit OCb. The acquisition unit OCa is, for example, a two-dimensional barcode reader, and reads a two-dimensional barcode printed on a print medium or a two-dimensional barcode displayed on the display screen of the terminal device T. The operating condition management device OC interprets the read two-dimensional barcode to extract the setting data contained in the two-dimensional barcode. The communication unit OCb has a function of receiving design data transmitted from the terminal device T and a function of transmitting setting data to the reinforcement apparatus 100.
[0063] The operating condition management device OC acquires the setting data input by at least one of the following input methods: (1) receiving the setting data sent from the terminal device T; (2) reading the two-dimensional barcode displayed on the display screen of the terminal device T; and (3) reading the two-dimensional barcode printed by the printer PR. The operating condition management device can write the setting data to the reinforcement arrangement device 100, thereby setting the setting data as operating condition data for operating the reinforcement arrangement device 100.
[0064] The operating condition management device OC is connected to the curved reinforcing bar arrangement device 2 and the straight reinforcing bar arrangement device 3 via communication cables, and sets operating condition data for each of the curved reinforcing bar arrangement device 2 and the straight reinforcing bar arrangement device 3. The operating condition data may include, for example, at least one of the following: starting position of reinforcing bar arrangement, total number of reinforcing bars, reinforcing bar diameter, reinforcing bar projection dimension, reinforcing bar arrangement pitch, adjustment amount of staggered stopper, etc.
[0065] The curved reinforcing bar arrangement device 2 arranges curved reinforcing bars based on the operating condition data set by the operating condition management device OC. The linear reinforcing bar arrangement device 3 arranges linear reinforcing bars based on the operating condition data set by the operating condition management device OC. The operating condition data used by the curved reinforcing bar arrangement device 2 and the linear reinforcing bar arrangement device 3 may be, for example, at least one of the following: the starting position of reinforcing bars, the total number of reinforcing bars, the reinforcing bar diameter, the reinforcing bar projection dimension, the reinforcing bar arrangement pitch, and the adjustment amount of the staggered stopper. In the following embodiment, the adjustment amount of the staggered stopper is not set in the reinforcement arrangement device 100 but is used by an operator to adjust the position of the position adjustment unit 54 of the staggered stopper. However, the staggered stopper may be configured to change the set position of the position adjustment unit 54 using a motor or the like based on the adjustment amount of the staggered stopper, rather than being set by an operator using the function of the position adjustment unit 54.
[0066] FIG. 16 is a functional block diagram showing the general functions of the setting data supplying device 300. As shown in FIG. The setting data supplying device 300 supplies setting data to the reinforcement arrangement device 100 that arranges vertical reinforcement and horizontal reinforcement.
[0067] The setting data supply device 300 includes a communication unit 301 , a storage unit 302 , a reinforcement diagram acquisition unit 303 , an area acquisition unit 304 , an analysis unit 305 , an input unit 306 , an output unit 307 , and a control unit 308 . The communication unit 301 communicates with the design data generating device 200, the terminal device T, and the printer PR. The storage unit 302 stores various types of data. The memory unit 302 is configured by a storage medium, such as a hard disk drive (HDD), flash memory, electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM), random access read / write memory (RAM), read-only memory (ROM), or any combination of these storage media. The storage unit 302 may be, for example, a nonvolatile memory.
[0068] The bar arrangement drawing acquisition unit 303 acquires design data representing a bar arrangement drawing created using CAD or the like from an external device (for example, a CAD device) via the communication unit 301.
[0069] The area acquisition unit 304 receives an operation input specifying an area to be analyzed in the reinforcement drawing.
[0070] The analysis unit 305 obtains the arrangement positions and pitches of the reinforcing bars by analyzing them based on the line geometry information representing the reinforcing bars in the reinforcing bar arrangement drawing that represents the reinforcing bar arrangement unit to be arranged. The analysis unit 305 analyzes at least one of the following positional relationships for multiple reinforcing bars arranged at intervals in a first direction: a first positional relationship in which the positions of the tips of the reinforcing bars are different in a second direction that is perpendicular to the first direction; or a second positional relationship between a reference position in the axial direction of the reinforcing bar that is arranged at the end-most position among multiple reinforcing bars arranged at intervals in the first direction and the end of the reinforcing bar that is arranged in the second direction. The first direction may be either the curved line direction X or the straight line direction Y. The second direction may be either the curved line direction X or the straight line direction Y, as long as it is different from the first direction. The analysis unit 305 can calculate the amount of staggering based on the first positional relationship, and the analysis unit 305 can calculate the projection dimension based on the second positional relationship.
[0071] The analysis unit 305 may also obtain the amount of staggering of reinforcing bars by analyzing at least one of vertical and horizontal reinforcing bars based on line geometry information in a reinforcement drawing representing a reinforcement unit to be reinforced.
[0072] The line geometry information is shape information that represents the line segments included in the design data. Reinforcing bars in the reinforcement drawing are represented by the line geometry information.
[0073] The analysis unit 305 may also analyze and acquire the projection dimension of vertical stripes relative to horizontal stripes or the projection dimension of horizontal stripes relative to vertical stripes based on the line segment geometry information. The analysis unit 305 may perform analysis on the graphic included in the range acquired by the area acquisition unit 304 .
[0074] The input unit 306 receives operation input from an operator. The input unit 306 may be, for example, at least one of a keyboard, a touch panel, a mouse, and the like.
[0075] The output unit 307 outputs the acquired setting data including the arrangement positions and pitches of the reinforcing bars. For example, the output unit 307 may output setting data including the acquired amount of zigzag. The output unit 307 may also be configured to output the setting data including the acquired projection dimensions. The output unit 307 may output a two-dimensional barcode representing the setting data. This output may be performed by transmitting image data representing the two-dimensional barcode to the terminal device T, or by outputting a reinforcement section in which the two-dimensional barcode is superimposed on a reinforcement drawing. Furthermore, the output unit 307 transmits the setting data to devices capable of supplying the setting data to the reinforcement arrangement apparatus 100 (for example, the terminal device T, the printer PR).
[0076] The communication unit 301, the reinforcement drawing acquisition unit 303, the area acquisition unit 304, the analysis unit 305, the input unit 306, the output unit 307, and the control unit 308 may be configured as a processing unit such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit) or a dedicated electronic circuit.
[0077] Next, the operation of the setting data supplying device 300 will be described. FIG. 17 is a flowchart illustrating the operation of the setting data supplying device 300. The bar arrangement drawing acquisition unit 303 of the setting data supply device 300 acquires design data representing a bar arrangement drawing created using CAD or the like from the design data generation device 200 via the communication unit 301 (step S10). The control unit 308 displays the reinforcement drawing acquired as design data on the display screen of the output unit 307. The operator specifies the range of the reinforcement drawing displayed on the display screen for creating reinforcing bar units by operating the input device. FIG. 18 is a diagram showing an example of the display content displayed on the display screen of setting data supplying device 300. As shown in FIG. Here, a reinforcement drawing, etc. is displayed on the display screen Ga. When the operator uses a mouse or other device to input an operation to change the size or position of the selection area SA, the selection area SA is displayed superimposed on the reinforcement drawing in accordance with the operation. Here, the illustration shows a case where the selection area SA is set to include the reinforcement drawing BA.
[0078] The area acquisition unit 304 receives an operation input specifying an area to be analyzed in the reinforcement drawing based on the operation input from the input device. Then, the area acquisition unit 304 extracts the reinforcement drawing that belongs to the area to be analyzed (step S20). Here, for example, the reinforcement drawing that is located on the inner periphery of the selected area SA is extracted.
[0079] Next, the analysis unit 305 analyzes the reinforcement drawing belonging to the analysis target area, and extracts the collected polyline information 200a, the collected attribute text information 200b, and the collected text information 200c from the reinforcement drawing. The collected polyline information 200a is data on polylines that represent rebars in a reinforcement drawing included in the analysis target area. Here, the analysis unit 305 determines whether or not a line in the analysis target area is a polyline, and extracts lines that are polylines to obtain the collected polyline information 200a, so that lines that do not correspond to rebars, such as dimension lines, are not extracted.
[0080] Here, text information representing the attributes of each of the vertical and horizontal reinforcements in the reinforcement drawing is set. This text information representing the attributes includes data representing the diameter, length, number of reinforcing bars, etc. for the vertical reinforcement, and data representing the diameter, length, number of reinforcing bars, etc. for the horizontal reinforcement. In this way, the analysis unit 305 extracts the text information representing the attributes set for each of the vertical reinforcement and the horizontal reinforcement as the collected attribute text information 200b. This text information representing the attributes may be written in the reinforcing bar drawing, and the analysis unit 305 may read this text information and extract it as the collected attribute text information 200b.
[0081] The collected text information 200c is information that represents the name of a reinforcing bar unit. For example, the name of a reinforcing bar unit is written in a predetermined position (for example, the upper left) in the reinforcing bar diagram. The name of a reinforcing bar unit may also represent the type of reinforcing bar unit. The analysis unit 305 references the area where the name of the reinforcing bar unit is written and extracts a character string from this area. For example, reinforcing bar unit "A" is extracted as the collected text information 200c. This collected text information 200c may be used additionally, and may or may not be included in the setting data.
[0082] Once the extracted data is obtained in step S20, the analysis unit 305 performs drawing analysis processing (step S30). Here, the analysis unit 305 obtains the following analysis results: analysis result 300a of the vertical lines (vertical axis), analysis result 300b of the horizontal lines (horizontal axis), and additional information 300c on the vertical and horizontal lines (each axis). The order of analysis may be such that the vertical lines are analyzed first and then the horizontal lines, or the horizontal lines are analyzed first and then the vertical lines. The analysis result 300a on the vertical axis includes the arrangement position and pitch of the vertical reinforcing bars.
[0083] The analysis unit 305 can acquire the number of vertical reinforcements by analyzing the placement position and pitch of the vertical reinforcements based on line segment geometry information representing the vertical reinforcements in a reinforcement arrangement drawing that shows the reinforcing bar units to be arranged. The placement position of the vertical reinforcements includes at least one of the staggered amount and the projection dimension. The analysis unit 305 can acquire the number of vertical reinforcements by counting the number of polylines corresponding to the vertical reinforcements based on the collected polyline information 200a. For example, when analyzing a reinforcement arrangement drawing such as that shown in FIG. 3, the analysis unit 305 acquires the number of vertical reinforcements by counting the number of vertical reinforcements (straight reinforcements B) arranged in the X-axis direction. The analysis unit 305 also reads the coordinate values of the tip position of the first end of the vertical reinforcing bar (the bottom end of FIG. 3) and the tip position of the second end of the vertical reinforcing bar (the top end of FIG. 3), which are represented by the polyline of the vertical reinforcing bar, and detects the length of the vertical reinforcing bar on the drawing based on the difference in the coordinate values in the Y-axis direction. The analysis unit 305 detects the length of each vertical reinforcing bar.
[0084] Furthermore, as shown in Fig. 6, for example, the analysis unit 305 acquires the staggering amount M1, which is the length of different positions in the straight reinforcement direction Y, for the straight reinforcement B that are adjacent to each other in the curved reinforcement direction X and are arranged alternately at different positions in the straight reinforcement direction Y. Here, the staggering amount M1 of the vertical reinforcement can be calculated based on the difference in the coordinate values in the straight reinforcement direction Y of the tip positions (the positions of the bottom ends in Fig. 6) of the first ends of the rebars that are adjacent to each other in the curved reinforcement direction X.
[0085] The analysis unit 305 also acquires the rebar projection dimension M2, which is the length from the rebar center of the end rebar AY to the end B1a, which is the first end (position of the lower end) of the straight rebar B1, as shown in Fig. 6. Here, the projection dimension M2 of the vertical rebar can be calculated based on the difference between the coordinate value corresponding to the position of the rebar center of the end rebar AY and the coordinate value in the straight rebar direction Y of the end B1a of the straight rebar B1. In this way, the analysis unit 305 can obtain the number of vertical streaks and their arrangement positions (staggering amount M1, projection dimension M2). The staggering amount M1 is an example of the analysis result 300a of the vertical axis, and the projection dimension M2 is an example of additional information related to the vertical streaks among the additional information 300c of each axis.
[0086] Next, the analysis result 300b on the horizontal axis includes the arrangement position and pitch of the horizontal reinforcing bars. The analysis unit 305 can acquire the number of horizontal reinforcing bars by analyzing the placement position and pitch of the horizontal reinforcing bars based on the line geometry information representing the horizontal reinforcing bars in the reinforcing bar arrangement drawing that shows the reinforcing bar units to be arranged. The placement position of the horizontal reinforcing bars includes at least one of the staggered amount and the projection dimension. The analysis unit 305 can acquire the number of horizontal reinforcing bars by counting the number of polylines corresponding to the horizontal reinforcing bars based on the collected polyline information 200a. For example, when analyzing a reinforcing bar arrangement drawing such as that shown in FIG. 3, the analysis unit 305 acquires the number of horizontal reinforcing bars by counting the number of horizontal reinforcing bars (curved reinforcing bars A) arranged in the Y-axis direction.
[0087] The analysis unit 305 also reads the coordinate values of the tip position of the first end of the horizontal stripe (the left end in FIG. 3) and the tip position of the second end of the horizontal stripe (the right end in FIG. 3), which are represented by the horizontal stripe polyline, and detects the length of the horizontal stripe on the drawing based on the difference in coordinate values in the X-axis direction. The analysis unit 305 detects the length of each horizontal stripe. Furthermore, as shown in Fig. 6, for example, the analysis unit 305 acquires the staggering amount L1, which is the length of the difference in position in the curved reinforcement direction X, for the curved reinforcement A adjacent to each other in the linear reinforcement direction Y and arranged alternately at different positions in the curved reinforcement direction X. Here, the staggering amount L1 of the horizontal reinforcement can be calculated based on the difference in the coordinate values in the curved reinforcement direction X of the tip positions of the first ends of the rebars adjacent to each other in the linear reinforcement direction Y (the positions at the left ends in Fig. 6).
[0088] The analysis unit 305 also acquires the rebar projection dimension L2, which is the length from the rebar core of the end rebar BX to the end A1a, which is the first end (position of the left end) of the curved rebar A1, as shown in Fig. 6. Here, the projection dimension L2 of the horizontal rebar can be calculated based on the difference between the coordinate value corresponding to the position of the rebar core of the end rebar BX and the coordinate value in the curved rebar direction X of the end A1a of the curved rebar A1. In this way, the analysis unit 305 can obtain the number of horizontal stripes and their placement positions (staggering amount L1, projection dimension L2). The staggering amount L1 is an example of the analysis result 300b for the horizontal axis, and the projection dimension L2 is an example of additional information related to the horizontal stripes among the additional information 300c for each axis.
[0089] Here, the coordinate values in the design data (here, the reinforcement drawing) are drawn in the model space at a 1:1 scale (actual size), so that the actual size can be calculated from the coordinate values.
[0090] Next, the analysis unit 305 obtains the attention breakdown code 300d. The attention breakdown code 300d is information indicating, for example, whether or not manual reinforcement is required instead of automatic reinforcement. For example, in FIG. 18, there is a blackened area in the approximate center of the reinforcement drawing, indicating that an opening OP will be provided. This indicates that no reinforcing bars will be placed on the inner periphery of this opening OP.
[0091] For example, initially, horizontal reinforcing bars can be arranged one by one at equal intervals by the reinforcement arrangement device 100, but when the area of the opening OP is reached, the horizontal reinforcing bars on the left side of the opening OP and the horizontal reinforcing bars on the right side of the opening OP are not compatible with reinforcement by the reinforcement arrangement device 100. Therefore, when the analysis unit 305 detects the horizontal reinforcing bars on the left and right sides of the opening OP, it generates a message indicating that the detected horizontal reinforcing bars are not compatible with the reinforcement arrangement device 100 and outputs it as a warning breakdown code 300d.
[0092] Similarly, the analysis unit 305 can arrange the vertical reinforcements by arranging them one by one on the left side of the opening OP using the reinforcement arrangement device 100, but when it reaches the area of the opening OP, the vertical reinforcements above the opening OP and the vertical reinforcements below the opening OP are not compatible with the reinforcement arrangement device 100. Therefore, when the analysis unit 305 detects the vertical reinforcements above and below the opening OP, it generates a message indicating that the detected vertical reinforcements are not compatible with the reinforcement arrangement device 100 and outputs it as a warning breakdown code 300d. Here, the analysis unit 305 may generate, as the warning breakdown code 300d, a message indicating that the reinforcement arrangement device 100 is not compatible, or may generate a message indicating that reinforcement must be arranged by hand.
[0093] Furthermore, when an opening OP is provided in a reinforcing bar unit, the vertical bars above the opening OP are staggered, requiring two types of reinforcing bars of different lengths, and the vertical bars below are also staggered, requiring two types of reinforcing bars of different lengths.Furthermore, the horizontal bars on the right side of the opening OP are staggered, requiring two types of reinforcing bars of different lengths, and the horizontal bars on the left side are also staggered, requiring two types of reinforcing bars of different lengths.
[0094] Next, the analysis unit 305 generates additional information 300f for the entire drawing from the collected text information 200c. The additional information for the entire drawing includes the names (types) of the reinforcing bar units and their numbers. For example, the additional information for the entire drawing is data such as "reinforcing bar unit "A", 20 pieces." This additional information on the entire drawing is not data that is directly used in the reinforcement apparatus 100, but can be output to the outside as an analysis result.
[0095] Next, the analysis unit 305 analyzes the analysis results 300a on the vertical axis, the analysis results 300b on the horizontal axis, and the additional information 300c on each axis, and can generate a warning breakdown code 300d based on whether or not the reinforcing bar unit has an opening OP. At the same time, it can determine whether or not manual assembly is required based on whether or not the reinforcing bar unit has an opening OP (symbol 300e). Furthermore, the analysis unit 305 calculates the adjustment amount of the staggered stopper (stopper adjustment amount C). Here, when calculating the stopper adjustment amount C, STL is stored in advance in the storage unit 302, and the analysis unit 305 can read it by referring to the storage unit 302. BL is the distance obtained by the analysis performed by the analysis unit 305 (for horizontal reinforcements, the distance from the end reinforcement AY, which is arranged at the position closest to the rail center line 19c among multiple curved reinforcements A, to the rail center line 19c; for vertical reinforcements, the distance from the end reinforcement BX, which is arranged at the position closest to the rail center line, which is the center of the rail extending in the straight reinforcement direction (first direction) Y, among multiple straight reinforcements B, to the rail center line). LP is the distance obtained by the analysis performed by the analysis unit 305 (the projection dimension L2 is used for horizontal reinforcements, and the projection dimension M2 is used for vertical reinforcements).
[0096] After performing these analyses, the analysis unit 305 obtains the analysis result 300a for the vertical axis, the analysis result 300b for the horizontal axis, additional information for each axis, a warning breakdown code 300d, the result of the manual assembly necessity determination 300e, and additional information 300f for the entire drawing, and then passes these to the output unit 307 as the drawing analysis result 300g.
[0097] The output unit 307 applies an output format to the analysis result of the analysis unit 305 (step S40), and displays it on the display screen of the setting data supplying device 300 (step S50). The output format is defined for the data included in the drawing analysis result 300g, such as the reinforcement instruction two-dimensional barcode content 400a, the drawing reading information string 400b, the staggered stopper adjustment amount / reinforcement pitch string 400c, and the warning display string 400d. The output screen includes a reinforcement instruction information screen 500a, a screen loading information display screen 500b, a staggered stopper adjustment amount / reinforcement pitch text editing field 500c, and a warning display indicator 500d. The reinforcement instruction information screen 500a is a screen based on the reinforcement instruction two-dimensional barcode content 400a, and displays an image representing the two-dimensional barcode. The screen loading information display screen 500b is a screen that displays drawings such as reinforcement drawings based on the drawing loading information character string 400b. The staggered stopper adjustment amount / reinforcement pitch text editing field 500c is a screen that displays character strings based on the staggered stopper adjustment amount / reinforcement pitch character string 400c. The warning display indicator 500d is a screen that displays a message calling attention to reinforcement based on the warning display character string 400d.
[0098] Furthermore, the output unit 307 generates and outputs image data representing a two-dimensional barcode containing data for instructing reinforcement (for example, the reinforcement instruction two-dimensional barcode content 400a) based on the analysis results. This output destination may be the display screen of the setting data supply device 300, or may be written to the storage unit 302 and saved as a reinforcement instruction two-dimensional barcode image file 600a (step S60). The setting data supply device 300 stores the generated two-dimensional barcode in the storage unit 302, so that it can be read out later and pasted onto the reinforcement drawing. For example, if a reinforcement drawing with a two-dimensional barcode attached thereto is printed by the printer PR and the print medium becomes soiled and the two-dimensional barcode cannot be read, the two-dimensional barcode stored in the storage unit 302 can be read out and attached to the reinforcement drawing, allowing the printer PR to print it again. This allows the two-dimensional barcode to be used without having to analyze the reinforcement drawing again.
[0099] Furthermore, the output unit 307 displays an output data confirmation screen on the display screen based on the analysis result (step S70). FIG. 19 is a diagram showing an example of the output data confirmation screen. The output data confirmation screen includes a display area 500 in which a reinforcement bar arrangement drawing is displayed, and a display area 510 in which confirmation data is displayed. The display area 510 displays a two-dimensional barcode 511 generated based on the analysis results, as well as a data display field 520 and zigzag stopper adjustment amount / reinforcement pitch data 530. The data display field 520 shows the analysis result data that was used to generate the two-dimensional barcode. The zigzag stopper adjustment amount / reinforcement pitch data 530 shows the zigzag stopper adjustment amount (for example, the above-mentioned stopper adjustment amount C) and reinforcement pitch for each vertical reinforcement and horizontal reinforcement.
[0100] The data display field 520 has three tabs: common information, vertical reinforcement, and horizontal reinforcement. Clicking on one of the tabs displays the contents of the various items belonging to that tab. Common information is data common to both vertical reinforcement and horizontal reinforcement, and includes, for example, the name of the site, the name of the work area, and the name of the operator who performed the operation to generate the two-dimensional barcode. The various items under the horizontal reinforcement tab include information indicating the starting position of the reinforcement, which is the position where the first horizontal reinforcement is placed, the total number of reinforcement bars, the diameter and dimensions of the rebar, and the dimensions of the rebar projection. The various items under the vertical reinforcement tab include information indicating the starting position of reinforcement, which is the position where the first vertical reinforcement is placed, the total number of reinforcement bars, the diameter of the rebar, and the projection dimensions of the rebar. The operator checks the correspondence between the various data displayed in the data display field 520 and the reinforcement drawing. Here, it is possible to check whether the correct content corresponding to the reinforcement drawing has been extracted by referring to the content displayed in the data display field 520 and the reinforcement drawing, and therefore it is possible to check whether the correct information corresponding to the reinforcement drawing has been reflected in the two-dimensional barcode.
[0101] In addition, by checking the content displayed as the staggered stopper adjustment amount / reinforcement pitch data 530, the operator can confirm the correspondence between the reinforcement drawing and the staggered stopper adjustment amount and reinforcement pitch of the vertical and horizontal reinforcement.
[0102] If these correspondences are confirmed and there are no problems, the operator places the image representing the two-dimensional barcode 511 near the reinforcement drawing by clicking the "Paste to drawing" button located near the image of the two-dimensional barcode 511 via a mouse, touch panel, etc. (symbol 700a).
[0103] The operator checks various data in the data display field 520, and if there are no problems, he can place the image representing the two-dimensional barcode 511 near the reinforcement drawing by operating and inputting via an input device such as a mouse or a touch panel (reference numeral 505). Also, the operator may change the position of the two-dimensional barcode relative to the reinforcement drawing to any position by operating and inputting via the input device.
[0104] By placing the two-dimensional barcode near the reinforcement drawing, the output unit 307 prints the reinforcement drawing with the printer PR, along with the two-dimensional barcode (step S70). Since the two-dimensional barcode is printed together with the reinforcement drawing, it is easy to understand which operational condition data included in the two-dimensional barcode corresponds to which reinforcement drawing. The worker then hands over the reinforcement drawing printed with the two-dimensional barcode to the operator. The operator then takes the reinforcement drawing to the control room CR and has the acquisition unit OCa of the operation condition management device OC read it. The operation condition management device OC reads the two-dimensional barcode using the acquisition unit OCa and interprets it to obtain the operation condition data. Based on the obtained operation condition data, the operation condition management device OC writes the operation condition data for horizontal reinforcement into the curved reinforcement arrangement device 2 and the operation condition data for vertical reinforcement into the straight reinforcement arrangement device 3, thereby setting them.
[0105] The output unit 307 can also transmit image data representing the reinforcement drawing with the two-dimensional barcode attached to it to the terminal device T via the communication unit 301. When the terminal device T receives the image data, it displays both the two-dimensional barcode and the reinforcement drawing on the display screen of the terminal device T based on the image data. The worker takes this terminal device T to the control room CR and has the acquisition unit OCa of the operating condition management device OC read the two-dimensional barcode. The operating condition management unit OC then interprets the read two-dimensional barcode and writes the operating condition data for the horizontal reinforcement into the curved reinforcement arrangement device 2 and the operating condition data for the vertical reinforcement into the straight reinforcement arrangement device 3, thereby setting them.
[0106] The operating condition management device OC can set operating condition data using such two-dimensional barcodes by either reading a two-dimensional barcode printed on a paper medium or by reading a two-dimensional barcode displayed on the display screen of the terminal device T. Furthermore, the operating condition management device OC may display a confirmation screen on a touch panel provided on the operating condition management device OC to confirm various setting values based on the operating condition data included in the two-dimensional barcode. The worker then visually checks this confirmation screen to confirm that there are no problems with each piece of data, and if there are no problems, presses a setting completion button. In this way, the operating condition management device OC may set the confirmed operating condition data by writing the operating condition data for horizontal reinforcement to the curved reinforcing bar arrangement device 2 and the operating condition data for vertical reinforcement to the straight reinforcing bar arrangement device 3. In this way, the worker can operate the reinforcement arrangement device 100 after confirming what data has been set.
[0107] In addition, the terminal device T displays a two-dimensional barcode and causes the operating condition management device OC to optically read the two-dimensional barcode, but image data representing the two-dimensional barcode may be transmitted to the operating condition management device OC via wireless or wired communication. Also, the operating condition data included in the two-dimensional barcode may be transmitted to the operating condition management device OC via wireless or wired communication.
[0108] Furthermore, if there is no problem with the correspondence between the reinforcement drawing and the staggering amount and reinforcement pitch of vertical and horizontal reinforcement, the operator places the staggering stopper adjustment amount / reinforcement pitch data 530 near the reinforcement drawing (reference numeral 506) by clicking the "Paste to drawing" button below the display field of the staggering stopper adjustment amount / reinforcement pitch data 530. Furthermore, the operator may change the position where the staggering stopper adjustment amount / reinforcement pitch data 506 is placed to any position relative to the reinforcement drawing by operating the input device.
[0109] By arranging the staggered stopper adjustment amount / reinforcement pitch data 506 near the reinforcement drawing, the output unit 307 causes the printer PR to print the reinforcement drawing with the staggered stopper adjustment amount / reinforcement pitch data 506 also arranged (700b). Here, the staggered stopper adjustment amount / reinforcement pitch data 506 is printed together with the reinforcement drawing. The operator then hands the printed reinforcement drawing together with the zigzag stopper adjustment amount / reinforcement pitch data 506 to the worker. The worker adjusts the positions of the position adjustment units 54 so that the values correspond to the zigzag stopper adjustment amounts for the vertical reinforcement zigzag adjustment devices 5 and the horizontal reinforcement zigzag adjustment devices 5, respectively. Here, the zigzag stopper adjustment amounts for the vertical reinforcement and the horizontal reinforcement are described in the printed reinforcement drawing as the zigzag stopper adjustment amount / reinforcement pitch data 506. Therefore, the worker can grasp the stopper adjustment amounts by reading the described stopper adjustment amounts, and then adjust the position of the position adjustment unit 54 so that the value corresponds to the grasped stopper adjustment amount. Therefore, the worker can easily grasp the stopper adjustment amount and adjust the position of the position adjustment unit 54.
[0110] In the above-described embodiment, the setting data supply device 300 outputs the data to be set for the reinforcement device 100 as a two-dimensional barcode, so that the operating condition data can be handed over in a manner that can be acquired by the operating condition management device OC. Furthermore, the position adjustment of the position adjustment unit 54 in the staggered adjustment device 5 is performed by an operator. Therefore, the staggered stopper adjustment amount / reinforcement pitch data is printed as a character string or displayed on the display screen of the terminal device T, rather than as a two-dimensional bar code, so that the information can be communicated to the operator in a form that the operator can recognize.
[0111] According to the above-described embodiment, the operator can specify an area in the reinforcement drawing that needs to be analyzed by surrounding it, thereby causing the setting data supply device 300 to execute the analysis process for the reinforcement drawing and generating a two-dimensional barcode. This allows the operator to generate a two-dimensional barcode simply by surrounding the necessary part in the reinforcement drawing.
[0112] In the above embodiment, the reinforcement arrangement device 100 has been described as having a curved reinforcement arrangement device 2 and a straight reinforcement arrangement device 3, but it is also possible to provide a straight reinforcement arrangement device 3 instead of the curved reinforcement arrangement device 2, arrange straight reinforcement at intervals in a first direction, and arrange straight reinforcement at intervals in a second direction, thereby creating a reinforcement unit.
[0113] The setting data supply device 300 in the above-described embodiment may be implemented by a computer. In this case, a program for implementing the function may be recorded on a computer-readable recording medium, and the program may be loaded into a computer system and executed. The term "computer system" as used herein includes hardware such as an OS and peripheral devices. The term "computer-readable recording medium" refers to portable media such as flexible disks, optical magnetic disks, ROMs, and CD-ROMs, as well as storage devices such as hard disks built into a computer system.
