DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a handy terminal for inputting an order menu using a menu key.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional order data processor is shown in FIG.
As shown in FIG. 7, the system comprises a plurality of handy terminals 10P for inputting order menus, an order management means 70 (wireless master station 71) for managing input order data, and an accounting means 90 for performing accounting processing on order data. The slip issuance printer 80 and the kitchen 40
0 and a kitchen printer 85 disposed at the center.
The accounting means 90 is provided at a store entrance / exit (accounting office) 300.

[0003] In this manner, the attendant WRK goes around each table (seat) 101 in the guest room 100 and sequentially inputs order data including an order menu of each customer CST using the handy terminal 10P to be carried. The order data includes a table number, the number of persons, and the like.

[0004] The order data is stored in the order management means 70.
The printer 70 is managed by both printers 8
0,85. In the kitchen 400, cooking is started based on the order slip issued from the kitchen printer 85. The customer slip issued from the slip issuing printer 80 is placed on the table 101 where the customer CST is seated by the attendant WRK.

[0005] The attendant WRK sometimes looks into the kitchen 400 and, if there is a cooked menu that he / she is in charge of, serves this to the customer C.
Serve to ST and check handwriting on customer slip.

When the cashier who has received the customer slip from the customer CST after eating and drinking inputs a slip number and the like using the accounting means 90, the order data is transferred from the order management means 70 via the data communication line 79. . Then, accounting processing is performed on the order data. In this way, it is possible to accurately manage and process a large number of order menus for a large number of customers, and to increase the actual operating rate of the store.

Here, the conventional handy terminal 10P
As shown in FIG. 10, a press menu key section 60P having a plurality of press menu keys 61KP is arranged on most of the surface of the main body 15BP, and a display section 49P is provided above the press menu key section 60P. However, with this structure, the number of the pressed menu keys 61KP cannot be increased in view of the limitation of the planar shape (size) from the viewpoint of portability and the handling (pressing operation).

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 11, a two-door structure (11P, 15P) in which the main body is connected by a hinge 19P.
As the pressed menu key portions 60P1 and 60P, respectively.
P2 and display portions 49P1 and 49P2 are provided, and the pressed menu key 61KP can be increased as compared with the case of FIG. However, even with this structure, there is a problem that not only the number cannot be increased more than twice, but also the weight is increased due to mechanical restrictions.

Thus, there has been proposed a structure in which each of the menu keys (61KP) is replaced with a liquid crystal display key in any of the structures shown in FIGS. The idea is that many menu keys can be increased by switching the display.

[0010]

However, it has been pointed out that simply increasing the number of menu keys by using display menu keys is not effective in practice.

That is, the number of images displayed in parallel in a single plane is often insufficient.
For example, if there is a subordinate conceptual menu (Japanese salad, southern salad, French salad, potato salad, tuna salad,...) Of one menu (salad), menu keys for additional menus will be insufficient. In addition, since the upper conceptual menu and the lower conceptual menu are displayed side by side on the same plane, not only the selection operation is troublesome, but an erroneous input easily occurs.

Operationally, as long as the display menu keys are displayed side by side on the same plane, the upper, lower, left and right adjacent keys are easier to touch than the case of the pressed menu keys having the same size. Also from this point, an erroneous operation is likely to occur. In order to avoid this, a careful operation is required, so that the menu input is rather slowed down.

Further, since the transmission key and the enter key which are indispensable and frequently used in relation to the menu key input are arranged in the same type and size as the display menu key, it is difficult to handle them.

[0014] It is an object of the present invention to provide a handy terminal in which an order menu can be input quickly and accurately and which is easy to handle.

[0015]

According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a handy terminal for inputting an order menu using a menu key, wherein a main body is formed of one door body and the other door body capable of opening the main body. A display with a touch panel capable of displaying a display menu key forming a part of the menu key on the inner surface and capable of inputting the order menu by touching the display menu key is provided, and the menu key is provided on the inner surface of the other door. Is a handy terminal provided with a pressing menu key which can form a part of the order menu and can input the order menu by a pressing operation.

In this invention, the main body is opened in a double-page state, and the menu is displayed by using both the pressed menu keys provided on the inner surface of the other door and the display menu keys displayed on the touch panel display on the inner surface of the one door. Can be entered.

Accordingly, the total number of menu keys can be greatly increased as the sum of the press menu key which is easy to handle on the other door side and the switchable display menu key on the one door side. Can be arranged separately on the left and right sides, the input operation can be prevented without any trouble in the selection operation, and the handling is simple. Therefore, the order menu can be input quickly and accurately and the handling is easy.

Further, if a plurality of display menu keys are assigned to each pressed menu key by software, a certain pressed menu key (for example, a "salad" key) can be pressed to provide a touch panel with one door. Display menus of multiple menus (“Japanese salad”, “Southern salad”, “French salad”, “Potato salad”, “Tuna salad”,…) assigned to the pressed menu (“salad”) key on the display Keys could also be displayed. Thus, by touching one display menu (for example, “Japanese style salad”) key, the menu can be input more quickly.
That is, the adaptability is wide.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided the information display device, wherein the information is displayed on the other door body in a fixed position of the touch panel display of the one door body from the outer surface side of the other door body with the main body closed. It is a handy terminal with a peephole that can be read.

In this invention, when the menu is not used, that is, in a non-use state, that is, in a state in which the main body is closed, the display surface of the display unit with the touch panel provided on the inner surface of the one door body is vacant, so that the information is displayed at the fixed position. Can be done.
This information is sent through the viewing window to the outside of the other door (outside)
You can read from.

Therefore, in addition to providing the same operation and effect as the case of the first aspect of the present invention, the display surface of the display device with the touch panel can be effectively used while securing the protection in the non-use state, and the out-of-stock menu can be provided. A function of transmitting information about a table or an empty table can be added.

The invention according to claim 3 is a handy terminal in which the information is not the display menu key.

In this invention, the spread state (use state)
The other information can be displayed on the portion where the display menu key can be displayed by the button. Therefore, in addition to providing the same operation and effect as the case of the invention of claim 2,
Furthermore, since it is not necessary to provide a special portion for displaying information on the display surface, the number of display menu keys in the double-page spread state can be further increased while reducing the size of the main body.

The invention according to claim 4 is a handy terminal in which the information is at least one of a call message, a communication error message, and battery information.

In this invention, for example, a call message such as "Guide the customer to an empty table", "Set up a cooking completion menu", or a communication error including "The place is weak in radio waves" or "Communication failure". A message and battery information such as "battery should be replaced" are displayed. Therefore,
In addition to providing the same functions and effects as the case of the third aspect of the invention, as a result, erroneous input can be prevented, subsequent menu input can be performed more reliably, and business efficiency can be improved.

Further, according to a fifth aspect of the present invention, there is provided a handy terminal for inputting data other than an order menu at a fixed position on the inner surface of the one-sided door and having a frequently used pressing data input key. It is.

In this invention, a frequently used key (for example, a transmission key, an enter key, a clear key) is provided at a fixed position on the inner surface of the door while displaying the display menu key.
Is provided as a pressing data input key of the same pressing operation type as the pressing menu key on the other door body side.

Therefore, in addition to providing the same functions and effects as in the first to fourth aspects of the present invention, when the pressing data input key is provided adjacent to the pressing menu key on the other door side, In comparison, the selection and pressing operation of the pressing data input key can be performed accurately and quickly, and the display menu key can be easily identified. Further, since a menu closely related to the menu actually input by touching the display menu key can be arranged, the work efficiency can be greatly improved, and the handling is much easier.

Further, the invention of claim 6 is a handy terminal in which the one-side door is a hand-held side.

In this invention, the one-side door on the side where the menu is actually input using the display menu key is a hand-held side, so that the touch operation of the display menu key can be performed more stably. Therefore, in addition to providing the same operational effects as those of the first to fifth aspects of the present invention, the control circuit and the drive circuit such as the display unit with a touch panel can be further easily handled. Since it can be arranged close to a display with a touch panel, which is often used, performance can be improved and cost can be reduced.

Further, the invention of claim 7 is a handy terminal wherein the plane area of the display menu key on the one door side is larger than the plane area of the pressed menu key on the other door side.

In this invention, the display menu key which is easier to touch other adjacent keys than the pressed menu key is made larger than the pressed menu key. Therefore, in addition to providing the same effects as those of the first to sixth aspects of the present invention, furthermore, it is possible to reliably prevent a mistaken operation of the display menu key, which is frequently used in final menu input, and to perform a touch operation. Is much easier.
Also from this point, quick menu entry can be performed.
