An embodiment of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
    [86] 11 is an explanatory diagram for explaining a method for designating a search word in a design file of the embroidery machine according to the present invention, and FIG. 12 is a flowchart showing a method for designating a search term in the design file of the embroidery machine according to the present invention. 13 is a flowchart illustrating a method for searching a design file of an embroidery machine according to the present invention by a keyword.
    [87] First, the design file is a file designing the shape to be embroidered on the fabric using the embroidery machine. Therefore, the embroidery machine receives and stores design files from a floppy diskette or another computer using a communication network, and loads the stored design file and inserts the embroidery into the fabric according to the shape or shape stored in the design file.
    [88] FIG. 11 illustrates a method of outputting a design file to which a search term is specified by using a design file to which a search term is designated and a search term.
    [89] As shown, each design file is composed of "file name.extension", and "[search term]" is entered at the end of the extension name (there may be a design file without specifying a search term).
    [90] For example, for a design file named "ABC.DST [Test]", ABC is a file name, DST is an extension name, and [Test] at the end is a search word (keyword).
    [91] In this case, the search word may be input by a user designating an arbitrary search word according to a company name, a design type, or a work type. Thus, the search term tells you what kind of file the design file is.
    [92] Therefore, when a user inputs a search word to search for a kind of design file, the design file having the search word is output to the LCD display unit 50 (monitor screen) 50.
    [93] In FIG. 11, an example of outputting a search word “Test” after outputting the design file having the search word [Test] is shown. As a result, as illustrated, ABC.DST, 123.SST, OP.PIN, ..., etc. having the [Test] search word are output.
    [94] 12 is a flowchart illustrating a method of designating a search word in a design file of an embroidery machine according to the present invention.
    [95] First, a design file stored in a floppy diskette or a hard disk is loaded (step S100).
    [96] Next, a cursor is selected from the design files displayed on the LCD display screen 50 to select a desired design file (step S110).
    [97] In the above step (S100) (S110), instead of loading a design file stored in a floppy diskette or a hard disk, a search word may be specified along with the name of the design file when generating the design file.
    [98] Then, the search word designation is selected using the search word designation hotkey (step S120).
    [99] If the user selects a search word in step S120, a search word input window for inputting a search word opens. At this time, the user may enter and specify a search word (step S130).
    [100] Then, the entered search word is stored in the selected design file (step S140).
    [101] Then, when designation and storage of the search word are completed in the design file, the design file to which the search word is assigned appears (step S150).
    [102] On the other hand, if you cancel the search term specified in the step (S120) ends without entering a search term.
    [103] Through this series of steps, search terms can be specified in the design file, and search, deletion, and copying by search terms can be made convenient.
    [104] 13 is a flowchart illustrating a method of searching a design file of an embroidery machine according to the present invention by a keyword.
    [105] First, a design file stored in a floppy diskette or a hard disk is loaded (step S200).
    [106] Then, the search word input is selected using the search word shortcut key (step S210).
    [107] Next, if a search term input is selected in step S220, a search term input window for inputting a search term opens. In this case, the user may input and specify a search word (step S230).
    [108] Then, the design file having the entered search word is searched (step S240).
    [109] Then, the searched result is confirmed through the LCD display screen unit 50 (step S250). At this time, the user can copy or delete the output design file.
    [110] On the other hand, when canceling the search word input in the step (S220) ends without entering the search word.
    [111] This series of processes allows you to search for a design file to which a search term is assigned, and also delete or copy the searched design file.
    [112] In addition, preferred embodiments of the present invention are disclosed for the purpose of illustration, those skilled in the art will be able to various modifications, changes, additions, etc. within the spirit and scope of the present invention, these modifications and changes should be seen as belonging to the following claims. something to do.
