Molding-condition recovery device in injection molding machine
First Claim
1. A molding-condition recovery device in an injection molding machine, comprising:
- a modification history creation unit writing, every setting modification of a molding condition, a modified component of a molding condition and its set value precedent to modification in a modification history storage file for storage in association with the sequence of modifications;
a set-up unit setting up a point of time of recovery of the molding condition; and
a recovering unit recovering the molding condition, upon completion of the setup for the point of time of recovery of the molding condition, by replacing the set value for the component read out from the latest modification history in the modification history storage file by backtrack to the past in sequence, among the components of the molding condition as of the setting up, with said readout set value precedent to modification.

Abstract
There is provided a molding-condition recovery device which may easily recover the molding condition having been applied in the past, and also permits the storage of the past molding conditions in a memory having small capacity. A reduction in required memory capacity of the modification history storage file is permitted by storing only data of a component subjected to setting modification, among the components of the molding condition, in a modification history storage file. The recovery of the past molding condition is made by replacing all the set values of the presently-applied molding condition or the data in a temporary file stored with all the set values of the first molding condition with data in the modification history storage file in sequence.

13. A molding-condition recovery device in an injection molding machine, comprising:
-
a modification history creation unit writing, every setting modification of a molding condition, a modified component of a molding condition and its set value subsequent to the modification in a modification history storage file for storage in association with the sequence of modifications;
a set-up unit setting up a point of time of recovery of a first molding condition; and
a recovering unit recovering the molding condition, upon completion of the setup for the point of time of recovery of the molding condition, by replacing the set value for the component read out from the oldest modification history in the modification history storage file in sequence by trace, among the components of the first molding condition, with the readout set value subjected to modification.

14. A control device for controlling the operation of a machine according to predetermined operating conditions, comprising;
-
a current operating-condition memory means for storing the current operating condition required for the control of said machine;
a manual input means for modifying the value of each component forming said operating condition;
a modification history memory means for storing a series of data containing a component of which value is modified and the modified value and a time of the modification as one record in sequence whenever modification is made on one of said components by said manual input means;
a record designating means for designating any one of a plurality of records stored in said modification history memory means; and
a means for specifying, when any record is designated by said record designation means, each component whose value has been renewed or remains unmodified at a time of said record designation, by referring to the designated record and all the records having modification times older than the modification time of said designated record, and then combining these specified components to reconfigurate an operating condition. - View Dependent Claims (15)

16. A molding-condition recovery device in an injection molding machine, comprising:
-
memory means for storing, when a set value of a component of molding condition is modified, the set value prior to such modification of that component in accordance with sequence of modifications;
means for specifying a past molding cycle; and
means for reproducing, when said past molding cycle is specified, the molding condition in the specified past molding cycle by successively substituting the set values prior to such modifications, stored in said memory means, for the set values of the molding-condition at the time of such specifying of said past molding cycle.

17. A molding-condition recovery device in an injection molding machine, comprising:
-
memory means for storing, when a set value of a component of molding condition is modified, the set value subjected to the modification of that component in accordance with sequence of modifications;
molding condition memory means for storing a molding condition for storing a molding condition just prior to a modification of molding condition in which said modification was executed to the oldest set value subjected to the modification stored in said memory means;
means for specifying a past molding cycle; and
means for reproducing, when said past molding cycle is specified, the molding condition in the specified past molding cycle by successively substituting the set values subjected to modifications, stored in said memory means, for the set values of the molding condition stored in said molding condition memory means.
