Inspection apparatus and inspection program
View Patent ↗According to an embodiment, an inspection apparatus includes a communication interface and a processor. The communication interface acquires results of single-item determination, which are inspection results for individual parcels that are successively conveyed, and number-of-items information for identifying, as one parcel group, a plurality of parcels among the individual parcels. The processor identifies a plurality of parcels as one parcel group, based on the number-of-items information, determines a result of multiple-item determination, which is an inspection result for the parcel group, based on the results of the single-item determination for the individual parcels included in the parcel group, and distributes the individual parcels included in the parcel group, based on the result of the multiple-item determination.
1. An inspection apparatus comprising:
a communication interface configured to acquire results of single-item determination, which are inspection results for individual parcels that are successively conveyed, and number-of-items information for identifying, as one parcel group, a plurality of parcels among the individual parcels; and
a processor configured to identify a plurality of parcels as one parcel group, based on the number-of-items information, configured to determine a result of multiple-item determination, which is an inspection result for the parcel group, based on the results of the single-item determination for the individual parcels included in the parcel group, and configured to distribute the individual parcels included in the parcel group, based on the result of the multiple-item determination.
2. The inspection apparatus of claim 1 , wherein
the results of the single-item determination are information indicative of inspection results as to whether a further inspection is necessary for the individual parcels, and
when the results of the single-item determination for the individual parcels included in the parcel group include an inspection result that the further inspection is necessary, the processor determines that the result of the multiple-item determination for the parcel group is that a further inspection is necessary, and executes such control as to distribute the individual parcels included in the parcel group to the further inspection.
3. The inspection apparatus of claim 2 , further comprising an upper-level communication interface for accessing a database which stores information relating to the individual parcels, and a multiple-item-group ID that identifies the parcel group and is allocated based on the number-of-items information, by correlating the information relating to the individual parcels and the multiple-item-group ID with parcel IDs which identify the individual parcels,
wherein the processor registers the result of the single-item determination for each of the parcels and the result of the multiple-item determination in the database.
4. The inspection apparatus of claim 3 , wherein, when the parcels included in the parcel group are processed, the processor causes a display device to display the multiple-item-group ID through the communication interface.
5. The inspection apparatus of claim 4 , wherein, when a parcel having the multiple-item-group ID is processed, the processor causes the display device to display the results of the single-item determination of other parcels having the same multiple-item-group ID through the communication interface.
6. An inspection program executed by a processor of an inspection apparatus comprising a communication interface, the inspection program causing the processor to:
acquire, via the communication interface, results of single-item determination, which are inspection results for individual parcels that are successively conveyed, and number-of-items information for identifying, as one parcel group, a plurality of parcels among the individual parcels;
identify a plurality of parcels as one parcel group, based on the number-of-items information;
determine a result of multiple-item determination, which is an inspection result for the parcel group, based on the results of the single-item determination for the individual parcels included in the parcel group; and
distribute the individual parcels included in the parcel group, based on the result of the multiple-item determination.
