In the processing system 10, the input units 2 of each of the devices 1, 11 to 13 are collectively referred to as input devices, and the output units 3 of each of the devices 1, 11 to 13 are collectively referred to as output devices.
[0025] 2(a), the processing device 1 includes a processing unit 4 that processes data and a communication unit (e.g., an antenna) 1b that transmits and receives data to and from external devices 11 to 13. The processing unit 4 includes an acquisition unit 41 that acquires data, a storage unit 42 that stores the data, a calculation unit 43 that calculates the data, and a control unit 44 that controls the processing device 1 (particularly, the output unit 3) based on the data.

[0027] For example, the configuration may be such that each of the units 43 and 44 of the processing unit 4 is realized by the processor 4a in one computer, i.e., one processor 4a, executing processing. Alternatively, the configuration may be such that each of the units 43 and 44 of the processing unit 4 is realized by the processor 4a in multiple computers, such as the processing unit 1 and the control device 13, i.e., multiple processors 4a, executing processing in a distributed manner.
[0028] Specifically, at least a part of the calculation unit 43 and the control unit 44 of the processing unit 4 of the processing device 1 according to the first to fourth embodiments described below may be provided in another device (for example, the control device 13 in FIG. 1). Furthermore, although not particularly limited, for example, at least a part of the input unit 2, the output unit 3, the acquisition unit 41 and the storage unit 42 of the processing device 1 according to the first to fourth embodiments described below may be provided in another device (for example, the storage device 12 and the control device 13 in FIG. 1).
[0029] First Embodiment Hereinafter, a first embodiment of the water quality meter data processing device 1 will be described with reference to FIGS.
[0030] 3, the input unit 2 includes an individual identification data input unit 2a to which data (individual identification data) for individually identifying the measured object X1 is input. The input unit 2 also includes a measurement instruction data input unit 2b to which data (measurement instruction data) for instructing the water quality meter 11 to measure the measured object X1 is input, and an imaging instruction data input unit 2c to which data (imaging instruction data) for instructing the imaging unit 1a to take an image is input.
[0031] The acquisition unit 41 includes an individual identification data acquisition unit 41a that acquires individual identification data, a measurement value data acquisition unit 41b that acquires data of the measurement value (measurement value data) obtained when the water quality meter 11 measures the measured object X1, a measurement time data acquisition unit 41c that acquires data of the time (measurement time data) when the water quality meter 11 measures the measured object X1, and an imaging data acquisition unit 41d that acquires data of an image of the measured object X1 (imaging data).
[0032] When measurement instruction data is input to the measurement instruction data input unit 2b, the measurement value data acquisition unit 41b acquires measurement value data, and the measurement time data acquisition unit 41c acquires measurement time data. When imaging instruction data is input to the imaging instruction data input unit 2c, the imaging unit 1a captures an image, and the imaging data acquisition unit 41d acquires the imaging data.
[0033] The storage unit 42 includes a related data storage unit 42a that stores related data. In this embodiment, the related data is data that associates individual identification data, imaging data, measurement value data when imaging the measured object X1, and measurement time data. That is, the related data includes data related to the measured object X1 (specifically, individual identification data and imaging data).
[0034] Next, the data processing method of the water quality meter data processing device 1 according to the first embodiment will be described with reference to Figures 3 to 5. Although not particularly limited, the water quality meter 11 may be a pH meter as shown in Figures 3 to 5.
[0035] For example, individual identification data is input to the individual identification data input unit 2a, and the individual identification data acquisition unit 41a acquires the individual identification data, causing the display 31 to display the individual identification data, as shown in Fig. 4. In Fig. 4 (similar to Fig. 5), the individual identification data is "Sample No. 123."
[0036] The individual identification data may be, for example, numbers or the like, and may be input to, for example, an individual identification data input unit 2a arranged on the touch panel 21. The individual identification data may be, for example, a barcode or a QR code, and may be input to the individual identification data input unit 2a via, for example, the imaging unit 1a (or may be acquired by the individual identification data acquisition unit 41a).
[0037] Then, when measurement instruction data is input to the measurement instruction data input unit 2b, the measurement value data acquisition unit 41b acquires measurement value data, and the measurement time data acquisition unit 41c acquires measurement time data. Also, when imaging instruction data is input to the imaging instruction data input unit 2c, the imaging unit 1a captures an image, and the imaging data acquisition unit 41d acquires imaging data.
[0038] 4, it is preferable that the measurement instruction data input unit 2b and the imaging instruction data input unit 2c are, for example, a common unit. This allows the input time of the measurement instruction data to coincide with the input time of the imaging instruction data, and therefore the acquisition time of the measurement value data to coincide with the acquisition time of the imaging data.
[0039] Then, associated data, which is data associating the individual identification data, the imaging data, the measurement value data when the measured object X1 is imaged, and the measurement time data, is stored in the associated data storage unit 42a. In Fig. 4, the individual identification data is "sample No. 123," the imaging data is "image of measured object X1," the measurement value data is "pH 6.75," and the measurement time data is "2020 / 08 / 01 12:34:56."
[0040] Then, by storing a plurality of pieces of associated data, the calculation unit 43 calculates data of the same measured object X1, for example, based on the associated data of the same measured object X1. For example, the calculation unit 43 calculates data of changes in the measured value (pH in FIG. 5) over time, as shown in FIG.
[0041] The display 31 may include a time-varying data display section 3a that displays time-varying data of the measurement value, and the time-varying data display section 3a displays the time-varying data calculated by the calculation section 43. This allows the time-varying change of the measured object X1 to be confirmed.
[0042] The display 31 may include an associated data display unit 3b that displays each associated data on which the time-varying data is based. Then, for example, the associated data display unit 3b may display the associated data by inputting data instructing the touch panel 21 to display the associated data (associated data display instruction data). And, since the associated data includes measurement value data, measurement time data, and imaging data, it is also possible to verify the time-varying data, for example.
[0043] As described above, the water quality meter data processing method of this embodiment is a water quality meter data processing method that is executed by at least one computer and processes measurement value data, which is data on measurement values measured by the water quality meter 11 for the measured object X1, and includes acquiring the water measurement value data and storing associated data that includes data related to at least one of the measured object X1 and the water quality meter 11 (in this embodiment, the measured object X1).
[0044] Moreover, the water quality meter data processing system 10 according to this embodiment includes at least one water quality meter 11 and the water quality meter data processing device 1 described above.
[0045] Furthermore, the water quality meter data processing device 1 according to this embodiment is a water quality meter data processing device 1 that processes measurement value data, which is data on measurement values measured by the water quality meter 11 on the measured object X1, and includes a measurement value data acquisition unit 41b that acquires the measurement value data, and a memory unit 42 that stores associated data including data related to at least one of the measured object X1 and the water quality meter 11 (in this embodiment, the measured object X1).
[0046] According to this configuration, measurement value data, which is data on the measurement value of the measurement object X1 measured by the water quality meter 11, is acquired, and associated data, including data related to at least one of the measurement object X1 and the water quality meter 11, is stored. This makes it possible to process the measurement value data using data related to the water quality meter 11 or the measurement object X1.
[0047] Furthermore, as in this embodiment, the water quality meter data processing device 1 may further include an individual identification data acquisition unit 41a that acquires individual identification data, which is data for individually identifying the measured object X1, and a measurement time data acquisition unit 41c that acquires measurement time data, which is data on the time when the water quality meter 11 measured the measured object X1, and the associated data may be data that associates the individual identification data, the measurement value data, and the measurement time data.
[0048] According to this configuration, individual identification data is acquired, which is data for individually identifying the measured object X1, and measurement time data is acquired, which is data on the time when the measured object X1 was measured by the water quality meter 11. Then, since the associated data is data that associates the individual identification data, measurement value data, and measurement time data, it is possible to check the change over time of the measured object X1.
[0049] Furthermore, as in this embodiment, the water quality meter data processing device 1 may further include an imaging data acquisition unit 41d that acquires imaging data, which is data obtained by imaging the measured object X1, and the associated data may be data that associates the individual identification data, the imaging data, the measurement value data when the measured object X1 is imaged, and the measurement time data.
[0050] According to this configuration, imaging data of the measured object X1 is acquired. Then, the associated data is data that associates individual identification data, imaging data, measurement value data when the measured object X1 is imaged, and measurement time data, so that it is possible to confirm the change over time of the measured object X1 and further to leave evidence that the data is that of the measured object X1.
[0051] The processing system 10, processing device 1, and processing method are not limited to the configurations and operations of the processing system 10, processing device 1, and processing method according to the first embodiment described above. For example, the processing system 10, processing device 1, and processing method according to the first embodiment described above may be modified as follows.
[0052] (1) The processing device 1 according to the first embodiment is configured to include an imaging data acquisition unit 41d that acquires imaging data, and the associated data is data that includes the imaging data. However, the processing device 1 is not limited to this configuration. For example, the associated data in the processing device 1 may be configured to not include imaging data, but to be data that associates only individual identification data, measurement value data, and measurement time data.
[0053] (2) For example, in the processing device 1 according to the first embodiment, the acquiring unit 41 may acquire voice data input to the microphone 23 when an image is captured by the imaging unit 1a, and the storage unit 42 may store the voice data. The associated data storage unit 42a may store the stored voice data as associated data in association with the individual identification data, the imaging data, and the measurement value data and measurement time data when the measured object X1 is imaged.
[0054] Second Embodiment Next, a second embodiment of the water quality meter data processing device 1 will be described with reference to Figures 6 and 7. In Figures 6 and 7, parts denoted with the same reference numerals as those in Figures 1 to 5 represent elements having substantially the same configurations or substantially the same functions (actions) as those described above, and their description will not be repeated.
[0055] 6 and 7, the input unit 2 includes a reagent preparation data input unit 2d into which reagent preparation data for preparing a reagent by inputting a plurality of raw materials is input, and a measurement instruction data input unit 2b into which data (measurement instruction data) for instructing the water quality meter 11 to measure the measured substance X1 is input.
[0056] The reagent preparation data includes data on the types of raw materials (raw material type data), data on the order in which the raw materials are added (addition order data), data on the amounts of raw materials added (addition amount data), and data on the tolerances of the measurement value data when the raw materials are added (tolerance value data).The reagent preparation data also includes data on the type of reagent to be prepared (preparation type data) and data on the amount of reagent to be prepared (preparation amount data).
[0057] The acquisition unit 41 includes a measurement value data acquisition unit 41b that acquires data on the measurement value (measurement value data) obtained by measuring the measurement object X1 by the water quality meter 11. When measurement instruction data is input to the measurement instruction data input unit 2b, the measurement value data acquisition unit 41b acquires the measurement value data.
[0058] The storage unit 42 includes a related data storage unit 42a that stores related data. In this embodiment, the related data is reagent preparation data. That is, the related data includes data related to the measured subject X1 (specifically, each data of the reagent preparation data).
[0059] The calculation unit 43 includes a reagent preparation data calculation unit 43a that calculates reagent preparation data based on the associated data stored in the associated data storage unit 42a, and a preparation process judgment unit 43b that judges whether the reagent preparation process is good or bad based on the measurement value data and the tolerance data.
[0060] The output unit 3 includes a reagent preparation data display unit 3c that displays reagent preparation data, a measurement value data display unit 3d that displays measurement value data, and a judgment data display unit 3e that displays judgment data (judgment data) of the preparation process judgment unit 43b.
[0061] Next, a data processing method of the water quality meter data processing device 1 according to the second embodiment will be described with reference to Figures 6 and 7. Although not particularly limited, the water quality meter 11 may be a pH meter as shown in Figure 7.
[0062] For example, when preparation type data and preparation amount data are input to the reagent preparation data input unit 2d, the reagent preparation data calculation unit 43a calculates the reagent preparation data based on the associated data stored in the associated data storage unit 42a, and the reagent preparation data display unit 3c displays the calculated reagent preparation data. Specifically, input order data, raw material type data, input amount data, and tolerance data are calculated and displayed.
[0063] 7, the first row from the top is preparation type data and preparation amount data, the first column from the left is input order data, the second column from the left is raw material type data, the third column from the left is input amount data, and the fourth column from the left is tolerance data. As a result, 500 ml of reagent A can be prepared by inputting the specified amounts of raw materials a, b, c, d, and e in this order.
[0064] The allowable value is the allowable pH value of the test sample X1 when the raw materials are poured in. In Fig. 7, for example, the allowable pH value for the test sample X1 into which 100 ml of raw material a is poured first is 6.5 to 7.5, and the allowable pH value for the test sample X1 into which 120 ml of raw material b is poured second is 7.5 to 8.5.
[0065] Incidentally, if the pH is outside the allowable range, it may be because the raw materials to be added, the amounts to be added, etc. Therefore, each time raw materials a to e are added, measurement instruction data is input to the measurement instruction data input unit 2b, and the measurement data acquisition unit 41b acquires the measurement data.
[0066] The preparation process determination unit 43b then determines whether the reagent preparation process is acceptable or not based on the acquired measurement value data and tolerance data. Specifically, if the measurement value data is included in the tolerance data, the preparation process determination unit 43b determines that the process is acceptable, and if the measurement value data is outside the tolerance data, the preparation process determination unit 43b determines that the process is unacceptable.
[0067] The measurement data display unit 3d displays the acquired measurement data, and the judgment data display unit 3e displays the judgment data. This allows the tolerance data and measurement data to be compared, making it possible to prepare an appropriate reagent. In Figure 7, the measurement data is in the fifth column from the left, and the judgment data is in the sixth column from the left.
[0068] If the preparation process determination unit 43b determines that the result is negative, the output unit 3 may output that result. For example, the speaker 32 may output a sound, and the determination data display unit 3e may display the determination data by flashing it or may display the result of negative on the entire display 31.
[0069] As described above, the water quality meter data processing device 1 of this embodiment is a water quality meter data processing device 1 that processes measurement value data, which is data of measurement values measured by the water quality meter 11 on the measured object X1, and is equipped with a measurement value data acquisition unit 41b that acquires the measurement value data, and a memory unit 42 that stores associated data including data related to at least one of the measured object X1 and the water quality meter 11 (in this embodiment, the measured object X1).
[0070] According to this configuration, measurement value data, which is data on the measurement value of the measurement object X1 measured by the water quality meter 11, is acquired, and associated data, including data related to at least one of the measurement object X1 and the water quality meter 11, is stored. This makes it possible to process the measurement value data using data related to the water quality meter 11 or the measurement object X1.
[0071] Furthermore, as in this embodiment, in the water quality meter data processing device 1, the related data is reagent preparation data for preparing a reagent by adding a plurality of raw materials, and includes raw material type data, which is data on the type of raw material, addition order data, which is data on the order in which the raw materials are added, addition amount data, which is data on the amount of raw material added, and tolerance value data, which is data on the tolerance of the measurement value data when the raw materials are added, and the water quality meter data processing device 1 may be configured to include a reagent preparation data display unit 3c that displays the reagent preparation data, and a measurement value data display unit 3d that displays the measurement value data.
[0072] According to this configuration, the related data is reagent preparation data for preparing a reagent by adding a plurality of raw materials, and includes tolerance data, which is data on tolerances of measurement data when the raw materials are added. Since the reagent preparation data is displayed, the reagent can be easily prepared. Furthermore, since the tolerance data and the measurement data are displayed, the tolerance data and the measurement data can be compared. This allows the appropriate reagent to be prepared.
[0073] Furthermore, as in this embodiment, in the water quality meter data processing device 1, the water quality meter 11 may be a pH meter that measures the pH of the measured object X1, the tolerance data may include pH tolerance data, and the measurement value data display unit 3d may display the measurement value data obtained by measuring the measured object X1 with the pH meter.
[0074] According to this configuration, the tolerance data includes pH tolerance data, and the measurement data display unit 3d displays the measurement data obtained by measuring the measured object X1 with the pH meter. This allows the pH value of the measured object X1 measured with the pH meter and displayed on the measurement data display unit 3d to be compared with the tolerance displayed on the reagent preparation data display unit 3c.
[0075] The processing system 10, processing device 1, and processing method are not limited to the configurations and operations of the processing system 10, processing device 1, and processing method according to the second embodiment described above. For example, the processing system 10, processing device 1, and processing method according to the second embodiment described above may be modified as follows.
[0076] (1) The processing device 1 according to the second embodiment may be modified so that the measurement data display unit 3d displays not only the measurement data of the object X1 measured by the water quality meter 11 but also the measurement data of the object X1 measured by another meter. Although not particularly limited, the other meter may be, for example, a weight scale 15, as shown in FIG.
[0077] The configuration of the processing device 1 shown in FIGS. 8 to 10 will be described below.
[0078] 8 to 10, the input unit 2 may include, for example, a measurement instruction data input unit 2b to which data (measurement instruction data) for instructing the measuring instruments 11 and 15 to measure the measured object X1 is input. For example, the measurement instruction data input unit 2b may include a weighing scale measurement instruction data input unit 2g to which measurement instruction data is input to a weighing scale (e.g., a scale or a balance) 15, and a water quality meter measurement instruction data input unit 2h to which measurement instruction data is input to a water quality meter (a pH meter in FIGS. 9 and 10) 11.
[0079] The measurement value data acquiring unit 41b may acquire, for example, measurement value data obtained by measuring the object to be measured X1 by the water quality meter 11 and the weighing scale 15. Specifically, when measurement instruction data is input to the weighing scale measurement instruction data input unit 2h, the measurement value data acquiring unit 41b may acquire measurement value data from the weighing scale 15, and when measurement instruction data is input to the water quality meter measurement instruction data input unit 2i, the measurement value data acquiring unit 41b may acquire measurement value data from the water quality meter 11.
[0080] Next, an example of a data processing method of the water quality meter data processing device 1 shown in FIGS. 8 to 10 will be described with reference to FIGS.
[0081] For example, by inputting preparation type data and preparation amount data into the reagent preparation data input unit 2d, the input order data, raw material type data, input amount data, and tolerance data are calculated and displayed as shown in Fig. 10. Then, by adding predetermined amounts of raw material f, raw material g, pure water, and raw material h in this order, 500 ml of reagent B can be prepared.
[0082] Although not particularly limited, raw materials f and g are solids (e.g., powders), and pure water and raw material h are liquids. Therefore, the allowable value when raw materials f and g are added is the allowable value for weight, and the allowable value when pure water and raw material h are added is the allowable value for pH.
[0083] Examples of reagent B include, but are not limited to, Tris buffer, Glycine buffer, Tricine buffer, HEPES buffer, phosphate buffer, MOPS buffer, MES buffer, acetate buffer, carbonate buffer, citrate buffer, sodium borate buffer, Good's Examples of suitable buffers include toluenesulfonic acid-sodium p-toluenesulfonate buffer, pentobarbital buffer, Clark-Lubs solution (pH 1.0-2.2), succinic acid-NaOH buffer, Clark-Lubs solution (pH 4.1-5.9), sodium cacodylate-HCl buffer, sodium hydrogen maleate-NaOH buffer, Clark-Lubs solution (pH 5.8-8.0), imidazole-HCl buffer, 2,4,6-collidine-HCl buffer, citric acid-NaHPO buffer, 2-amino-2-methyl-1,3-propanediol-HCl buffer, diethanolamine-HCl buffer, sodium carbonate-sodium bicarbonate buffer, carbonate buffer, phosphate buffer, NaOH-KCl buffer, and β-β'-dimethylglutaric acid-NaOH buffer.
[0084] Then, each time raw material f and raw material g are added, measurement instruction data is input to weighing scale measurement instruction data input unit 2h, and measurement value data acquisition unit 41b acquires measurement value data from weighing scale 15. Also, each time pure water and raw material h are added, measurement instruction data is input to water quality meter measurement instruction data input unit 2i, and measurement value data acquisition unit 41b acquires measurement value data from water quality meter 11.
[0085] The preparation process judgment unit 43b judges whether the reagent preparation process is good or bad based on the acquired measurement value data and tolerance data, the measurement value data display unit 3d displays the acquired measurement value data, and the judgment data display unit 3e displays the judged judgment data. Although not particularly limited, the storage unit 42 may store, for example, each piece of measurement value data as associated data, or may store, for example, each piece of measurement value data as associated data with individual information of the prepared reagent (e.g., reagent number).
[0086] In this way, in the water quality meter data processing device, as shown in Figures 8 to 10, the tolerance data may include tolerance data for weight, and the measurement value data display unit 3d may display the measurement value data obtained by measuring the measured object X1 by the weighing meter 15.
[0087] According to this configuration, the tolerance data includes tolerance data for weight, and the measurement data display unit 3d displays the measurement data obtained by measuring the measured object X1 by the weighing scale 15. This allows the weight value of the measured object X1 measured by the weighing scale and displayed on the measurement data display unit 3d to be compared with the tolerance displayed on the reagent preparation data display unit 3c.
[0088] Although not particularly limited, the reagent preparation data calculation unit 43a may calculate the amount of raw material added based on the measurement value data. For example, as shown in Fig. 10, after adding pure water, the reagent preparation data calculation unit 43a may calculate the amount of raw material h (e.g., pH adjusting solution) added based on the measurement value data acquired from the water quality meter 11, and the reagent preparation data display unit 3c may display the calculated amount.
[0089] Furthermore, although not particularly limited, for example, before measuring the measured object X1 with weighing scale 15, weighing scale 15 may be calibrated using a standard (such as a weight). In such a case, for example, storage unit 42 may store data (such as the calibration date and time) on which weighing scale 15 was calibrated, and may further store data in which the measurement value data acquired from weighing scale 15 and the calibration data are associated with each other.
[0090] (2) Furthermore, the processing device 1 according to the second embodiment and Figures 8 to 10 is configured to include a preparation process determination unit 43b. However, the processing device 1 is not limited to this configuration. For example, the processing device 1 may not include the preparation process determination unit 43b, and may be configured to confirm the preparation process by comparing the tolerance data displayed on the reagent preparation data display unit 3c with the measurement value data displayed on the measurement value data display unit 3d.
[0091] (3) In the processing device 1 according to the second embodiment and Figures 8 to 10, preparation type data, preparation amount data, input order data, raw material type data, input amount data, and tolerance data may be input to the reagent preparation data input unit 2d, and the input data may be stored in the related data storage unit 42a. This allows new reagent preparation data to be added to the processing device 1.
[0092] <Third embodiment> Next, a third embodiment of the water quality meter data processing device 1 will be described with reference to Figures 11 and 12. In Figures 11 and 12, parts denoted by the same reference numerals as those in Figures 1 to 10 represent elements having substantially the same configurations or substantially the same functions (actions) as those described above, and description thereof will not be repeated.
[0093] The water quality meter 11 according to this embodiment is a pH meter 11 that outputs a measurement value obtained by measuring a measured object X1 as an electrical signal (e.g., a voltage value or a current value). The pH meter 11 is calibrated by matching the pH value and the electrical signal using a calibration solution (e.g., a calibration solution having a pH of 4.0, 7.0, or 9.0). For example, the value of the electrical signal obtained when a calibration solution having a pH of 9.0 is measured is set as the value of the electrical signal indicating a pH of 9.0.
[0094] 11, the input unit 2 includes an individual identification data input unit 2a into which data (individual identification data) for individually identifying the water quality meter 11 is input. The input unit 2 also includes a calibration liquid data input unit 2e into which pH data (calibration liquid data) of the calibration liquid, which is the measured object X1, is input, and a calibration instruction data input unit 2f into which data for instructing the calibration of the pH meter 11 (calibration instruction data) is input.
[0095] The acquisition unit 41 includes an individual identification data acquisition unit 41a that acquires individual identification data, and a calibration solution acquisition unit 41e that acquires calibration solution data. The acquisition unit 41 also includes a measurement value data acquisition unit 41b that acquires data of the electrical signal output from the pH meter 11 (measurement value data), and a measurement time data acquisition unit 41c that acquires data of the time when the electrical signal data was acquired from the pH meter 11 (measurement time data).
[0096] In other words, the measurement value data acquiring unit 41b acquires data (measurement value data) of the electrical signal when the pH meter 11 measures the calibration solution which is the measured object X1, and the measurement time data acquiring unit 41c acquires data (measurement time data) of the time when the pH meter 11 measures the calibration solution which is the measured object X1. When calibration instruction data is input to the calibration instruction data input unit 2f, the measurement value data acquiring unit 41b acquires the measurement value data, and the measurement time data acquiring unit 41c acquires the measurement time data.
[0097] The storage unit 42 includes a related data storage unit 42a that stores related data. In this embodiment, the related data is data that associates calibration liquid data with measurement value data. That is, the related data includes data related to the measured object X1 (specifically, calibration liquid data).
[0098] Next, a data processing method of the water quality meter data processing device 1 according to the third embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.
[0099] First, when calibrating the pH meter 11, individual identification data is input to the individual identification data input unit 2a, and the individual identification data is acquired by the individual identification data acquisition unit 41a. Also, calibration liquid data of the calibration liquid to be used is input to the calibration liquid data input unit 2e, and the calibration liquid data acquisition unit 41e acquires the calibration liquid data.
[0100] For example, the display 31 may display the individual identification data and the calibration liquid data as shown in Fig. 12. In Fig. 12, the individual identification data is "pH meter No. 12" and the calibration liquid data is "calibration liquid pH 9.0".
[0101] The individual identification data and calibration liquid data may be, for example, numbers, and may be input to the input units 2a and 2e arranged on the touch panel 21. The individual identification data and calibration liquid data may be, for example, bar codes or QR codes, and may be input to the input units 2a and 2e via the imaging unit 1a.
[0102] Thereafter, calibration instruction data is input to the calibration instruction data input unit 2f, whereby the measurement value data acquisition unit 41b acquires the measurement value data, and the measurement time data acquisition unit 41c acquires the measurement time data. Then, associated data, which is data associating the calibration liquid data with the measurement value data, is stored in the associated data storage unit 42a.
[0103] 12, the display 31 may include a related data display section 3b, which may display related data that associates the calibration solution data with the measurement value data. This allows the calibration status of the pH meter 11 to be checked in the future.
[0104] For example, if the value of the electrical signal output from the pH meter 11 is significantly different from the expected electrical signal value, it can be determined that there is an abnormality in the calibration solution (for example, the wrong calibration solution, a pH deviation due to deterioration of the calibration solution, etc.). In this way, for example, an abnormality in the pH meter 11 or an abnormality in the calibration solution can be verified.
[0105] As described above, the water quality meter data processing device 1 of this embodiment is a water quality meter data processing device 1 that processes measurement value data, which is data of measurement values measured by the water quality meter 11 on the measured object X1, and is equipped with a measurement value data acquisition unit 41b that acquires the measurement value data, and a memory unit 42 that stores associated data including data related to at least one of the measured object X1 and the water quality meter 11 (in this embodiment, the measured object X1).
[0106] According to this configuration, measurement value data, which is data on the measurement value of the measurement object X1 measured by the water quality meter 11, is acquired, and associated data, including data related to at least one of the measurement object X1 and the water quality meter 11, is stored. This makes it possible to process the measurement value data using data related to the water quality meter 11 or the measurement object X1.
[0107] Furthermore, as in this embodiment, in the water quality meter data processing device 1, the water quality meter 11 is a pH meter 11 that outputs the measurement value obtained by measuring the measured object X1 as an electrical signal, the water quality meter data processing device 1 further includes a calibration liquid data acquisition unit 41e that acquires calibration liquid data, which is data on the pH of the calibration liquid that is the measured object X1, the measurement value data acquisition unit 41b acquires measurement value data, which is data on the electrical signal output from the pH meter 11, and the associated data may be data that associates the calibration liquid data with the measurement value data.
[0108] According to this configuration, calibration liquid data, which is data on the pH of the calibration liquid, which is the measured object X1, is acquired, and measurement value data, which is data on the electrical signal output from the pH meter 11, is acquired. Then, since the associated data associates the calibration liquid data with the measurement value data, it is possible to check the calibration status of the pH meter 11 in the future.
[0109] <Fourth embodiment> Next, a fourth embodiment of the water quality meter data processing device 1 will be described with reference to Figures 13 and 14. In Figures 13 and 14, parts denoted with the same reference numerals as those in Figures 1 to 12 represent elements having substantially the same configurations or substantially the same functions (actions) as those described above, and their description will not be repeated.
[0110] 13 and 14, the storage unit 42 includes a related data storage unit 42a that stores related data. In this embodiment, the related data is data that associates measurement value change data, which is data on changes in measurement value data over the course of measurement time, with water quality meter pass / fail data, which is data on the pass / fail status of the water quality meter 11. In other words, the related data includes data related to the water quality meter 11 (specifically, the water quality meter pass / fail data).
[0111] The input unit 2 includes an associated data input unit 2g for inputting associated data, and a measurement instruction data input unit 2b for inputting data (measurement instruction data) for instructing the water quality meter 11 to measure the measured object X1. Note that, for example, the associated data may be transmitted from various water quality meters 11 via the communication means 14. That is, the associated data storage unit 42a may store and accumulate data from various water quality meters 11.
[0112] The acquisition unit 41 includes a related data acquisition unit 41f that acquires related data, a measurement value data acquisition unit 41b that acquires data on the measurement value (measurement value data) obtained when the water quality meter 11 measures the measured object X1, and a measurement time data acquisition unit 41c that acquires data on the time (measurement time data) when the water quality meter 11 measures the measured object X1.
[0113] The calculation unit 43 includes a learning unit 43c that performs machine learning based on the teacher data stored in the associated data storage unit 42a. Specifically, the learning unit 43c uses associated data that associates measurement value change data with water quality meter pass / fail data as teacher data, and performs machine learning on a judgment model that inputs the measurement value change data and outputs the water quality meter pass / fail data. Although not particularly limited, for example, the learning unit 43c may train a neural network by deep learning.
[0114] The calculation unit 43 also includes a water quality meter pass / fail determination unit 43d that uses a determination model machine-learned by the learning unit 43c to determine the pass / fail of the water quality meter 11 from specific measurement value change data. Although not particularly limited, the water quality meter pass / fail determination unit 43d may, for example, use a trained neural network to output water quality meter pass / fail data from specific measurement value change data.
[0115] Then, for example, the water quality meter pass / fail data output by the water quality meter pass / fail determination unit 43d is displayed on the display 31 of the output unit 3. This allows the pass / fail of the water quality meter 11 to be determined based on, for example, various related data (teaching data) of the water quality meter 11, thereby making it possible to more appropriately determine the pass / fail of the water quality meter 11.
[0116] Then, for example, the determined data may be stored in the memory unit 42 in association with the individual identification data of the water quality meter 11. For example, the individual identification data of the water quality meter 11 (e.g., the water quality meter 11 itself, the electrodes of the water quality meter 11, and components) may be, for example, numbers or the like, which are input to the touch panel 21, or may be, for example, a barcode or QR code, which may be input to the input unit 2 (or acquired by the acquisition unit 41) via the imaging unit 1a.
[0117] The training data used by learning unit 43c may include, for example, at least one of data on the production lot of water quality meter 11 (production lot data), data on the cumulative time that water quality meter 11 has been used (cumulative usage time data), data on the sensitivity of water quality meter 11 (sensitivity data), data on the asymmetric potential of water quality meter 11 (irregular potential data), and data on an image of water quality meter 11 (image data).The water quality meter quality determination unit 43d may determine the quality of water quality meter 11 by adding not only the measurement value change data but also at least one of the production lot data, cumulative usage time data, sensitivity data, irregular potential data, and image data.
[0118] The training data used by the learning unit 43c may be data obtained by extracting characteristic portions from the measurement value change data. For example, the training data may be data extracted from the measurement value change data for a time period before the measurement value data becomes stable, or may be data extracted from a time period after the measurement value data becomes stable. The water quality meter pass / fail determination unit 43d may then determine the pass / fail status of the water quality meter 11 from the extracted data from the measurement value change data.
[0119] As described above, the water quality meter data processing device 1 of this embodiment is a water quality meter data processing device 1 that processes measurement value data, which is data of measurement values measured by the water quality meter 11 on the measured object X1, and is equipped with a measurement value data acquisition unit 41b that acquires the measurement value data, and a memory unit 42 that stores related data including data related to at least one of the measured object X1 and the water quality meter 11 (in this embodiment, the water quality meter 11).
[0120] According to this configuration, measurement value data, which is data on the measurement value of the measurement object X1 measured by the water quality meter 11, is acquired, and associated data, including data related to at least one of the measurement object X1 and the water quality meter 11, is stored. This makes it possible to process the measurement value data using data related to the water quality meter 11 or the measurement object X1.
[0121] Furthermore, as in this embodiment, in the water quality meter data processing device 1, the related data is data that associates measurement value change data, which is data on changes in the measurement value data over the course of measurement time, with water quality meter pass / fail data, which is data on the pass / fail of the water quality meter 11, and the water quality meter data processing device 1 may further be configured to include a learning unit 43c that uses the related data as training data and machine-learns a judgment model that inputs the measurement value change data and outputs the water quality meter pass / fail data, and a water quality meter pass / fail judgment unit 43d that uses the judgment model to judge the pass / fail of the water quality meter 11 from specific measurement value change data.
[0122] With this configuration, the learning unit 43c uses associated data that associates measurement value change data with water quality meter pass / fail data as training data, and machine-learns a judgment model that inputs measurement value change data and outputs water quality meter pass / fail data. The water quality meter pass / fail judgment unit 43d then uses the judgment model to judge the pass / fail of the water quality meter 11 based on specific measurement value change data. This allows the pass / fail of the water quality meter 11 to be judged appropriately.
[0123] The processing system 10, processing device 1, and processing method are not limited to the configurations of the above-described embodiments, and are not limited to the above-described effects. Furthermore, the processing system 10, processing device 1, and processing method can, of course, be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. For example, the configurations and methods of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily adopted and combined (the configurations and methods of one embodiment may be applied to the configurations and methods of another embodiment), and one or more of the configurations and methods of the various modified examples described below may be arbitrarily selected and adopted in the configurations and methods of the above-described embodiments.
