DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Hereinafter, in conjunction with the drawings, technical solutions according to some embodiments of the present disclosure are described clearly and completely. Obviously, described embodiments are a part of embodiments of the present disclosure, but not all of them. Those ordinary skilled in the art may further obtain other embodiments according to these embodiments, without creative labor.

At present, taking a blueprint design program as an example, after a design engineer uses the blueprint design program to accomplish a blueprint design, it is necessary to check the designed blueprint according to a design check file, check whether it complies with a design specification. However, the design check file is usually managed offline through a table or is only recorded in a file management module of a PLM program in the form of an attachment, and when the design engineer needs to use the design check file, he searches a corresponding design check file from many tables or design check files manually again, and since the search is manual, omissions or mistakes are possible, so that accuracy of the blueprint design is affected, efficiency of research and development design is reduced.

Some embodiments of the present disclosure provide a data processing method for blueprint design which is applied to a PLM widget. FIG. 1 is a schematic view of a relation of a PLM widget and a PLM program and a blueprint design program according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 1, a PLM widget 101 is a widget of a PLM program 10, is loaded in a blueprint design program 20, thereby to achieve integration of the PLM program and the blueprint design program.

In a practical application, the above mentioned PLM program may be Teamcenter, Windchill, ENOVIA, etc, the blueprint design program may be Auto CAD, Mentor, Altium Designer, etc. Of course, other PLM programs and blueprint design programs are also possible, which is not limited specifically in the present disclosure.

FIG. 2 is a flow diagram of an implementation of a data processing method for blueprint design according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 2, the data processing method may include:

S201: a blueprint design program generating a first acquisition request according to a user's operation;

Here, the first acquisition request may carry blueprint information of a current blueprint in the blueprint design program.

Specifically, in course of a blueprint designer using the blueprint design program, if the design of the current blueprint is done, a corresponding design check file is acquired to check the current blueprint, to check whether the blueprint complies with a corresponding design specification. At this time, by operations such as clicking “save current blueprint” or clicking “import design check file”, etc, the blueprint designer may trigger the blueprint design program to generate the first acquisition request, and at this time, the blueprint design program generates the first acquisition request according to blueprint information of the current blueprint, the first acquisition request may carry blueprint information such as a factory name, a product category, a process category or a design, etc, of course, the blueprint information may also be an independent file, it is only packaged together with the first acquisition request and transmitted when it is transmitted, which is not limited specifically in the present disclosure.

For instance file, after the blueprint designer accomplishes the blueprint design, he may, through a “save” button, etc, in the blueprint design program, trigger the blueprint design program to invoke a PLM widget, to generate the first acquisition request. Or, FIG. 3 is a schematic view of a window interface of a blueprint design program according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 3, after the blueprint designer accomplishes the blueprint design, he may select a PLM widget option card 301 in a window interface 30 of the blueprint design program, the PLM widget option card 301 may include multiple options, e.g. Teamcenter, Windchill, ENOVIA, etc. For instance file, in FIG. 3, a “Teamcenter” option is selected. At this time, the blueprint design program invokes a corresponding PLM widget, e.g. a Teamcenter widget, displays an interface of the PLM widget in the window interface 30 of the blueprint design program, and on the PLM widget interface, the blueprint designer clicks a “save” button in a menu bar 302, and at this time, the blueprint design program generates the first acquisition request.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 3, the PLM widget interface may also include: a blueprint browse bar 303, a quick access bar 304, a Home interface 305. Of course, the PLM widget interface may also include other toolbars, which is not limited specifically in the present disclosure.

S202: the blueprint design program transmitting the first acquisition request to a PLM widget;

S203: in response to the first acquisition request, the PLM widget acquiring a design check file corresponding to blueprint information from a PLM program;

S204: the PLM widget transmitting the design check file to the blueprint design program;

Here, the above mentioned design check file is used to indicate to check design compliance of the current blueprint, i.e. prompt the user to check the design of the current blueprint according to respective design specifications in the design check file.

In a practical application, the design check file acquired by the above mentioned PLM widget may be a Design check instance file, may also be a Design check template file, here, the design check instance file is generated according to the design check template file.

Specifically, a system administrator may in advance define at least one blueprint attribute corresponding to different product categories or process categories or designs of each factory, and save them in the form of a table (e.g. Excel), and then, the PLM program defines the blueprint attributes in the table as corresponding fields to import them, generates corresponding design check template files, as such, achieves standardized sorting of the design check template files, reduces repetitive data sorting and recording of the blueprint designer. In this way, the system administrator may login the PLM program, select a corresponding factory name, a corresponding product category, a corresponding process category or a corresponding design, and at this time, the PLM program will automatically match a corresponding design check template file, the system administrator may modify the blueprint attributes in the design check template file according to actual design requirements of a product, generate a corresponding design check instance file, and save it in the PLM program.

In a practical application, the above mentioned blueprint attributes may be Item, Sequence number, Check Item, Check Result Description, Check Result, etc. Of course, other blueprint attributes may also be set, which is not limited specifically in the present disclosure.

Then, in S203, after the PLM widget obtains the first acquisition request, it may acquire blueprint information of the current blueprint, such as a factory name, a product category, a process category or a design corresponding to the current blueprint, then, the PLM widget searches a corresponding design check instance file from the PLM program, and in S204, transmits the design check instance file to the blueprint design program.

In other embodiments of the present disclosure, if the system administrator does not upload design check instance files in time or design check instance files can not be acquired, at this time, S203 may include: in response to the first acquisition request, the PLM widget searching a design check instance file corresponding to blueprint information in a PLM program; if it fails to find the design check instance file, the PLM widget acquiring a corresponding design check template file according to blueprint information. At this time, in S204, the PLM widget transmits the design check template file corresponding to blueprint information to the blueprint design program.

Specifically, if the system administrator does not upload design check instance files in time or design check instance files can not be read, at this time, the PLM widget can not find a corresponding design check instance file in the PLM program, so, the PLM widget may search a corresponding design check template file in the PLM program according to blueprint information of the current blueprint, and since the design check template file may include some general design specifications or design specifications of old versions, the PLM widget may transmit the design check template file to the blueprint design program, so that the blueprint designer checks the current blueprint according to blueprint attributes in the design check template file.

Further, in order to further improve accuracy of the blueprint design and improve efficiency of research and development design, after the PLM widget transmits the design check template file to the blueprint design program, the above mentioned method may also include: the blueprint design program displaying the design check template file, and according to modification of the design check template file by the user, generating a design check instance file; the blueprint design program transmitting the design check instance file to the PLM widget; the PLM widget transmitting the design check instance file to the PLM program for verification.

Specifically, after the blueprint design program displays the above mentioned design check template file in a design check interface, the blueprint designer may set blueprint attributes in the design check template file, thus generate a corresponding design check instance file, and the blueprint design program invokes the PLM widget to upload the design check instance file to the PLM program, so that the system administrator performs verification on the design check instance file, and after the verification is passed, the PLM program saves the design check instance file.

It is to be noted that, when the design check instance file is uploaded for verification, the PLM program may automatically display all design check items in a data check interface in a structurized form, highlight updated check items upon verification for a prompt.

S205: the blueprint design program displaying the design check file.

Specifically, if the PLM widget finds a corresponding design check file, it transmits the corresponding design check file to the blueprint design program, and after the blueprint design program receives the design check file, it may create a new design check window to display the design check file, for example, FIG. 4 is a schematic view of a design check interface of a blueprint design program according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 4, the blueprint designer may check the current blueprint with reference to respective blueprint attributes 401 shown in the design check interface, and with respect to blueprint attributes which are found not to comply with the design specification, it is possible to prompt the user to perform modification in the blueprint design program.

By now, when the blueprint designer performs the blueprint design in the blueprint design program, he may obtain the design check instance file of the current blueprint through the PLM widget, so that the blueprint designer can check the blueprint design compliance of the current blueprint according to the design check instance file, improve accuracy of the blueprint design and improve efficiency of research and development design.

Based on the aforementioned embodiments, in other embodiments of the present disclosure, in order to improve operation convenience of the blueprint designer, it is also possible to set different operation rights for different blueprint attributes. So, after the above mentioned S203, the above mentioned the method may also include: the PLM widget extracting at least one blueprint attribute of the design check file; according to attribute rights preset in the PLM program, the PLM widget setting a right control flag for each blueprint attribute, and associating it with the design check file, the right control flag being used to denote an operation right of each blueprint attribute in the design check file; the PLM widget transmitting the design check file after the association to the blueprint design program.

In a specific implementation, the system administrator may, in the PLM program, set an attribute right for at least one blueprint attribute in the design check template file and the design check instance file, respectively, for example, set the blueprint attribute to be “whether required” or “whether editable”, etc. It is to be noted that, attribute rights of a same blueprint attribute in the design check template file and the design check instance file may be the same, may also be different, which is not limited specifically in the present disclosure.

For instance file, first, the PLM program obtains one design check file, which may be the design check template file and may also be the design check instance file, and then, with respect to the design check file, defines a set S={attr1, attr2, attr3, . . . attri, . . . attrN} which contains N attributes, i=1, 2, 3, . . . N, N is a positive integer. Here, a blueprint attribute of any one attri may select “whether required” and “whether editable”; so, with respect to attri, a composite right control flag T4_LOV_PackingFlag=(flag1, flag2) is defined, wherein, flag1 being Y means that the attribute is required, flag1 being N means that the attribute is optional; flag2 being Y means that the attribute is editable, flag2 being N means that the attribute is not editable. With respect to any one attribute attri, its attribute setting result (flag1i, flag2i) belongs to a set C, C={(Y,Y), (Y, N), (N, Y), (N, N)}; finally, a set which defines judgement of all the blueprint attributes of the design check file is T, T={(flag11, flag21), (flag12, flag22), (flag13, flag23), . . . , (flag1i, flag2i), . . . (flag1N, flag2N)}, i=1, 2, 3 N.

So, after the PLM widget obtains the first acquisition request, it may obtain the design check file corresponding to the current blueprint, then extract at least one blueprint attribute of the design check file, such as Item, Sequence number, Check Item, Check Result Description, Check Result, etc, and then, judge each blueprint attribute, obtain the set of the blueprint attribute judgement.

In a practical application, the above mentioned step may be achieved by the following method:

First step, Input: the design check file; the number of the blueprint attributes is N; the set of the blueprint attributes is S; the composite right control flag is T4_LOV_PackingFlag.

Second step, Iteration: the blueprint attributes in the design check file,

for i=1 to N do

(1) judge the attri right control flag T4_LOV_PackingFlagi=(flag1i, flag2i);

(2) update i=i+1;

end for

Third step, Output: the set T of the final blueprint attribute judgement.

Here, after the PLM widget sets the right control flag for each blueprint attribute according to the set of the blueprint attribute judgement, it associates the above mentioned right control flag with the design check file, the PLM widget transmits the design check file after the association to the blueprint design program. In this way, the blueprint designer can know attribute rights of respective blueprint attributes in the design check file.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, in order to reduce complexity of right setting and reduce workload of background maintenance, when it is necessary to modify a certain blueprint attribute attrk, the system administrator may, in the PLM program, modify a right control flag T4_LOV_PackingFlagk=(flag1k, flag2k) of the attrk, k=1, 2, 3, . . . N, as such, it is possible to simultaneously modify a design check instance file and a design check template file which have the blueprint attribute attrk.

Based on the aforementioned embodiments, in other embodiments of the present disclosure, after the blueprint designer uses a professional blueprint design program to accomplish the blueprint design, he may directly access the PLM program through the PLM widget loaded in the blueprint design program, upload the designed blueprint into the PLM program fast.

FIG. 5 is a flow diagram of an implementation of a data processing method for blueprint design according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 5, after S205, the above mentioned method may also include:

S501: the blueprint design program generating a storage request;

wherein, the storage request is used to request the current blueprint of the blueprint design program to be saved in the PLM program;

specifically, after the blueprint designer accomplishes the blueprint design in the blueprint design program, he triggers the blueprint design program to generate the storage request, for example, clicks a “save” button in a window interface as shown in FIG. 3 to trigger the blueprint design program to generate the storage request, or, after the blueprint designer finishes checking the design compliance of the current blueprint according to the above mentioned design check file, he may also trigger the blueprint design program to generate the storage request, and of course, it is also possible to trigger the blueprint design program to generate the storage request in other methods, which is not limited specifically in the present disclosure.

S502: the blueprint design program transmitting the storage request to the PLM widget;

S503: in response to the storage request, the PLM widget saving the current blueprint in the PLM program.

Specifically, after the PLM widget receives the storage request, in response to the storage request, the PLM widget accesses the PLM program, saves the current blueprint in the PLM program, as such, it is possible to solve a problem in which the blueprint needs to first complete its design in the blueprint design program and is saved locally and then is uploaded to the PLM program, greatly improve uploading efficiency of the blueprint.

Further, after the PLM widget receives the storage request, it may also acquire blueprint design information carried in the storage request, such as a blueprint number, a version or a sequence number of the current blueprint, etc, then, associate the blueprint design information with the current blueprint, and save it in the PLM program.

Optionally, the PLM widget associates the current blueprint with corresponding parts, then uploads the current blueprint to the PLM program to be saved. For example, the PLM widget searches blueprint versions already existing in the PLM program, and when a corresponding blueprint version is found, the PLM widget can obtain parts associated with the blueprint version, and at this time, associate the part items with the current blueprint, and upload them to the PLM program to be saved; if the above mentioned parts do not exist, the PLM widget may indicate the blueprint software program to directly create new parts, and associate them with the current blueprint, and upload them into the PLM program to be saved.

Or, if the current blueprint is a newly created blueprint, before saving the current blueprint, it is necessary for the blueprint designer to set all attributes of the current blueprint, then, upload the current blueprint to the PLM program to be saved. At this time, a blueprint name of the current blueprint will be changed to “blueprint number-version-sequence number”, the PLM widget will also save the current blueprint and “blueprint number-version-sequence number” in the PLM program in association with each other.

After this, the PLM widget may also, in the PLM program, initiate verification of the current blueprint, which is not limited specifically in the present disclosure.

Thus, a process of blueprint fast uploading is done. Since after the blueprint designer uses a professional blueprint design program to accomplish the blueprint design, he may directly access the PLM program through the PLM widget loaded in the blueprint design program, upload the designed blueprint into the PLM program fast, therefore it is not necessary to first save the blueprint locally and then upload it to the PLM program from a local place, thereby fast uploading of the blueprint is achieved.

Based on the aforementioned embodiment, in other embodiments of the present disclosure, in order to facilitate invocation of parts and improve efficiency of the blueprint design, it is also possible to standardize the parts, prestore a standard part library in the PLM program, standardization parameters of respective parts are saved in the standardized part library, such as a frame size of a part, a line margin, etc.

S604: the PLM widget loading the part selection interface to the blueprint design program for display.

Specifically, in course of the blueprint design, if the blueprint designer needs to add parts in the current blueprint, he may trigger the blueprint design program to generate the part invocation request, for example, the blueprint designer selects a Home interface 305 in the interface as shown in FIG. 3, and at this time, the blueprint design program generates the part invocation request, to request invoking the standardized part library of the PLM program. In response to the part invocation request, the PLM widget accesses the PLM program, and invokes the standardized part library prestored therein. Then, the PLM widget will invoke the standardized part library, and according to the standardized part library, generate the part selection interface, and in the part selection interface, indexes of respective standardized parts may be displayed, to be selected by the blueprint designer. The PLM widget transmits the part selection interface to the blueprint design program, the blueprint design program may select the Home interface 305 in the interface as shown in FIG. 3 to display the part selection interface, may also generate an independent window, to display the part selection interface, which is not limited specifically in the present disclosure.

In other embodiments of the present disclosure, after the PLM program loads the part selection interface into the blueprint design program for display, as shown by broken lines in FIG. 6, the method may also include:

S605: the PLM widget receiving a selection operation performed by the user in the part selection interface;

wherein, the selection operation carries a part flag of a first part;

specifically, after the part selection interface is displayed in the blueprint design program, the blueprint designer may perform the selection operation on the part selection interface, select the first part, and at this time, the PLM widget receives these selection operations, the selection operations carry the part flag of the first part.

S606: the PLM widget executing the selection operation, and according to the part flag, searching whether there is the first part in the standardized part library;
