Abstract: An analysis management server stores a factory A catalog group including a plurality of catalogs in factory A, an application destination catalog including a plurality of catalogs in factory B, and an application source analysis data correspondence table associating columns between a target table of factory A and a defect factor analysis table. A CPU is configured to: identify an unconnected catalog for which a catalog of factory B having an identical correspondence does not exist among the plurality of catalogs of factory A included in the application source analysis data correspondence table; identify an unconnected correspondence, which is a correspondence of the unconnected catalog in the application source analysis data correspondence table, sensor data of factory B, and an identical path correspondence which is a correspondence of a catalog on a path including the unconnected catalog; and display information of the unconnected correspondence and the identical path correspondence.

Abstract: File folders are provided with unique machine-readable indicia representing the contents therein. Scanners sensitive to the machine-readable indicia are mounted to filing cabinets so that, upon opening or closing a drawer, the indicia on the folders within that drawer are automatically scanned. The indicia scanned are then input to a computer system that logs the scanned folders as being located in that drawer.

Abstract: An indexing device having a container for holding a plurality of cards therein and a cover pivotally mounted to the container by means of a shaft. When the cover is opened by the force of a resilient spring, the card placed at a desired location is exposed. A damping mechanism is provided around the shaft of the device to prevent the cover from being suddenly swung open, which would otherwise be caused by the resilient force.

Abstract: An item selection signal input system includes a sheet file carrying a plurality of item lists, each of the item lists being provided with item indicia for marking switches formed on a keyboard panel. The sheet file is removably wound around a bidirectionally rotatable drum through the use of a claw provided on the bidirectionally rotatable drum and an engaging member secured to one end of the sheet file. When different key markings are required, the sheet file is demounted from the bidirectionally rotatable drum, and a new sheet file is mounted on the bidirectionally rotatable drum through the use of the claw and the engaging member.

Abstract: An item input device for a data processing system wherein plurality of flexible page sheets with input information provided thereon overlap the circumference of a rotating shaft in the device main unit and the fixed ends of the sheets are separated by a constant space. The desired page sheets are selected through rotation of the rotating shaft in the winding direction and the reverse direction of the page sheets, thereby guiding the page sheets to the display location. The page sheets overlap each other such that the page sheet unit has the page sheet ends bound thereto separated by a constant space thus the page sheet unit is formed separately from the rotating shaft. The page sheet unit is taken up to the rotating shaft in the page selection ready condition by rotation in the winding direction, and the page sheet unit taken up is released from the rotating shaft by rotation in the reverse direction. Moreover, a clamping member for holding the winding condition of the page sheets is provided.

Abstract: A file search apparatus which is provided with a base having a center pillar, a reel which comprises file accommodating rooms accommodating therein a plurality of files having codes and juxtaposed in a circle and is supported to the center pillar rotatably therearound, a selection device which is supported revolvably to the base to revolve along the outer periphery of the reel so as to read the codes on the files and search for a desired file, a driving device for driving the selection device, and a search display means displaying the searched file, so that the reel rotates to move the searched file to a predetermined position to be taken out therethrough without the trouble of looking for the searched file around the reel.

Abstract: A wall mounted telephone index including a housing arranged to be mounted in a substantially vertical position on a wall, the housing having a front opening for access to the interior in which a stack of pivotally mounted index cards are disposed with a pivotally mounted door on the housing for closing the front opening and maintaining the cards in a storage position. A slide selector is mounted on the housing for movement into a selected position for retaining engagement with a selected card so that when the door is pivoted downward manually, the index cards overlying the selected card pivot downwardly to display the selected index card.

Abstract: An item selection signal input system comprising a keyboard panel including a plurality of matrix aligned, transparent touch sensitive switches. An item list setting mechanism is provided for placing a desired item list below the keyboard panel in order to mark each of the touch sensitive switches. The item list setting mechanism comprises an item list carrying drum to which one end of a plurality of item lists are fixed. The desired item list is selected while the item list carrying drum is driven to rotate.

Abstract: A rotary type index in which a multiplicity of information containing cards are arranged around a cylindrical drum and the drum is rotated to display information-containing surfaces of the cards in a viewing window is provided with a mechanism for causing a plurality of the information cards to be brought into position with a single selection key. This is as distinguished from the conventional drum type machine in which the number of selection switches equals the number of information cards.
