  First, the functional configuration of the maintenance work support apparatus 100 according to the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a functional configuration of the maintenance work support apparatus 100. As shown in FIG. 1, the maintenance work support apparatus 100 includes a specification acquisition unit 1, an ideal timing acquisition unit 2, a failure diagnosis unit 3, a failure information DB 4, a failure site specification unit 5, and a replacement product specification unit 6. A building-specific maintenance / replacement management unit 7 and a notification unit 8.

  The specification acquisition unit 1 acquires specifications of an elevator apparatus (hereinafter referred to as “target EV”) that is a target of failure diagnosis among one or a plurality of elevator apparatuses EV included in the elevator equipment 200 of the building. First, the elevator facility 200 will be described.

  The elevator facility 200 includes one or a plurality of elevator apparatuses EV, a control panel 201 that controls the operation of each elevator apparatus EV, and an identification information acquisition apparatus 202. In FIG. 1, elevator devices EV <b> 1 and EV <b> 2 are illustrated, but the number of elevator devices EV included in the elevator facility 200 is arbitrary.

  The control panel 201 controls the operation of each elevator apparatus EV by transmitting an operation command. The operation command is a command that specifies an operation performed by the elevator apparatus EV. The elevator apparatus EV performs an operation specified by the received operation command.

  In addition, the control panel 201 always acquires the state of each elevator apparatus EV from a sensor or the like provided in the elevator apparatus EV. The state of the elevator apparatus EV includes, but is not limited to, at least one of a car position (floor), a load weight, a lifting speed, and a call.

  In addition, the control panel 201 exchanges information on maintenance replacement supplies by building managed by the building maintenance replacement supplies management unit 7 via the notification unit 8 described later (that is, the next maintenance date and time of the elevator apparatus EV installed in the building). The information on the maintenance / replacement product for each building associated with the product is received, and the information on the maintenance / replacement product for each building is stored in the control panel 201. Here, the information on the maintenance replacement supplies for each building stored in the control panel 201 is used when it is determined whether or not the replacement work of the replacement supplies has been performed by the maintenance worker. The control panel 201 transmits information indicating whether or not replacement parts have been exchanged by the maintenance worker to the maintenance work support apparatus 100 side. For example, if the replacement product is an electronic component, the control panel 201 is stored in the information on the maintenance replacement product for each building when the maintenance worker detects that the replacement product has been replaced and the replacement product is energized. Information indicating that the target replacement item has been exchanged is transmitted to the maintenance work support apparatus 100 side.

  Each elevator apparatus EV includes an individual identification apparatus 203. The individual identification device 203 stores identification information (ID) for individually identifying the elevator apparatus EV. The individual identification device 203 is, for example, an IC chip or an IC tag, but is not limited thereto.

  The identification information acquisition device 202 acquires identification information from the individual identification device 203 of the target EV. The identification information acquisition device 202 transmits the identification information of the target EV acquired from the individual identification device 203 to the maintenance work support device 100. Here, the identification information acquisition device 202 further acquires the identification information acquired from the individual identification device 203 of the target EV based on the identification information of the target EV included in the building information transmitted from the building information extraction unit 72 described later. You may check.

  The control panel 201 and the identification information acquisition apparatus 202 can communicate with the maintenance work support apparatus 100 by wire or wireless, and constitute an elevator maintenance work support system together with the maintenance work support apparatus 100.

  The specification acquisition unit 1 acquires the specification of the target EV based on the identification information acquired from the identification information acquisition device 202. The specification acquisition unit 1 includes a specification DB 11 and a specification extraction unit 12.

  The specification DB 11 stores the specifications of each elevator apparatus EV included in the elevator facility 200. The specification stored in the specification DB 11 is, for example, at least one of a model, an ascending / descending speed, an installation floor, and regenerative power, but is not limited thereto.

In FIG. 2, the record of each elevator apparatus EV includes three specifications: model, lifting speed, and installation floor. According to FIG. 2, for example, the model of the elevator apparatus EV1 is A.

  The specification extraction unit 12 acquires the identification information of the target EV from the identification information acquisition device 202, and extracts the specification information corresponding to the acquired identification information from the specification DB 11. For example, when the identification information (ID = EV1) of the elevator apparatus EV1 is acquired, the specification extraction unit 12 extracts the record of EV1 from the specification table of FIG. Thereby, the model A, the raising / lowering speed 30, and the installation floors 1 to 10 are extracted as the specifications of the target EV.

  The ideal timing acquisition unit 2 acquires ideal timing. The ideal timing is a time that satisfies a predetermined condition when a normal elevator apparatus EV performs an operation specified by an operation command. The predetermined conditions are, for example, the end of the operation command (end of the operation specified by the operation command), the elevating speed being a predetermined value, the basket passing through a predetermined position between the floors, and the door being fully open or Although it is at least one of becoming fully closed, it is not restricted to this. The ideal timing acquisition unit 2 includes an ideal operation time DB 21 and an ideal timing calculation unit 22.

  The ideal operation time DB 21 stores ideal operation time. The ideal operation time is a time required for a normal elevator apparatus EV to perform a certain operation. The ideal operation time is set or measured in advance and stored for each specification of the elevator apparatus EV.

  Here, FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an example of an ideal operation time table (ideal operation time information) stored in the ideal operation time DB 21. As shown in FIG. 3, the ideal operation time DB 21 stores the operation of the elevator apparatus EV and the ideal operation time in association with each other. According to FIG. 3, for example, the ideal operation time until the cage rises from the first floor to the second floor is 5 seconds. This indicates that, when the elevator apparatus EV is normal, it takes 5 seconds for the basket to rise from the first floor to the second floor. The ideal operation time DB 21 stores such an ideal operation time table for each specification of the elevator apparatus EV.

  The ideal timing calculation unit 22 calculates ideal timing. First, the ideal timing calculation unit 22 transmits a state of the target EV from the control panel 201, an operation command transmitted from the control panel 201 to the target EV, a start time when the target EV starts an operation specified by the operation command, Receive.

  Next, the ideal timing calculation unit 22 extracts the ideal operation time from the start time to the ideal timing from the ideal operation time DB 21 based on the state of the target EV and the operation command. And the ideal timing calculation part 22 calculates the total time which totaled the extracted ideal operation time, and calculates the time after total time from a start time as an ideal timing.

  For example, when the predetermined condition is “end of operation command”, the state of the target EV is “stop on the first floor”, and the operation command is “move to the second floor”, the ideal timing calculation unit 22 performs the ideal operation of FIG. 5 seconds (first floor → second floor) are extracted from the time table as the ideal operation time. In this case, the total time is 5 seconds. Then, the ideal timing calculation unit 22 calculates 5 seconds after the start time as the ideal timing.

  Further, when the predetermined condition is “the door is fully open”, the state of the target EV is “stop on the first floor”, and the operation command is “move to the second floor”, the ideal timing calculation unit 22 5 seconds (1st floor → 2nd floor) and 3 seconds (door closed → door open) are extracted from the ideal operation time table as the ideal operation time. In this case, the total time is 8 seconds. Then, the ideal timing calculation unit 22 calculates 8 seconds after the start time as the ideal timing.

  In this way, the ideal timing calculation unit 22 can calculate one or a plurality of ideal timings corresponding to one or a plurality of conditions for one operation command.

  The failure diagnosis unit 3 diagnoses the presence or absence of a failure of the target EV based on the ideal timing and the actual timing. The actual timing is the time when the target EV performs the operation specified by the operation command and actually satisfies the above-described predetermined condition. For each condition, the ideal timing and the actual timing correspond one-to-one. The failure diagnosis unit 3 receives actual timing from the control panel 201.

  The failure diagnosis unit 3 diagnoses a failure of the target EV by calculating a time difference (shift in operation timing) between the ideal timing and the actual timing, and comparing the time difference with a predetermined threshold value. Specifically, the failure diagnosis unit 3 diagnoses that the target EV is broken when the time difference is larger than the threshold value. The threshold value can be arbitrarily set, and may be the same or different for each condition for calculating the ideal timing. The diagnosis result by the failure diagnosis unit 3 may be notified by the notification unit 8 described later.

  The failure information DB 4 stores failure information. The failure information is information in which the time difference between the ideal timing and the actual timing is associated with the failure portion of the elevator apparatus EV.

As shown in FIG. 4, the failure information table includes a plurality of failure information records, and each failure information includes a failure part, a failure content, and a plurality of time differences for each condition. For example, the failure information ID = 1 indicates that when a contact failure occurs at the failure site A, the time difference of condition 1 occurs for 1 second and the time difference of condition 3 occurs for 3 seconds. The failure information DB 4 stores a plurality of such failure information tables for each specification. Note that the number of conditions included in the failure information table can be arbitrarily set.

  The failure part specifying unit 5 acquires a diagnosis result from the failure diagnosis unit 3, and specifies a failure part when the target EV is diagnosed as a failure. Specifically, the failure part specifying unit 5 acquires a time difference in each condition from the failure diagnosis unit 3 and refers to the failure information DB 4. And the failure part specific | specification part 5 extracts the failure information in which the time difference or the combination of time differences corresponds from failure information DB4, and specifies the failure part of the extracted failure information as a failure part of object EV. The failure part extracted by the failure part specifying unit 5 may be notified by the notification unit 8.

  The replacement product specifying unit 6 specifies a replacement product for returning the specified faulty part to a normal state by acquiring part information of the target EV corresponding to the faulty part specified or estimated by the faulty part specifying unit 5 To do. The replacement product identification unit 6 includes a component information DB 61 and a component information extraction unit 62.

  The component information DB 61 stores component information. The parts information is information regarding parts (that is, replacement parts) necessary for repairing a failure of the elevator apparatus EV. The part information includes the type, part number, price, quantity in stock, and storage location of the part, the specification of the target EV that requires the part, the failure part, and the failure content.

  Next, the operation of the maintenance work support apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing the operation of the maintenance work support apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment.

  In step S1, the specification acquisition unit 1 acquires the specification of the target EV. That is, the specification extraction unit 12 acquires the identification information of the target EV from the identification information acquisition device 202, and extracts the specification of the target EV from the specification DB 11.

  In step S2, the ideal timing acquisition unit 2 acquires one or more ideal timings corresponding to one or more conditions. That is, the ideal timing calculation unit 22 receives from the control panel 201 the state of the target EV, the operation command transmitted to the target EV, and the start time at which the target EV starts the operation specified by the operation command. . The ideal timing calculation unit 22 acquires the specification of the target EV from the specification extraction unit 12. Then, the ideal timing calculation unit 22 extracts the ideal operation time from the ideal operation time DB 21 and calculates the ideal timing. The calculation method of the ideal timing is as described above.

  In step S <b> 3, the failure diagnosis unit 3 acquires one or more ideal timings calculated by the ideal timing calculation unit 22, and acquires one or more actual timings corresponding to the ideal timing from the control panel 201.

  In step S4, the failure diagnosis unit 3 compares the time difference between the ideal timing and the actual timing with a predetermined threshold value, and determines whether or not the time difference is larger than the threshold value. If the time difference is greater than the threshold (YES in step S4), the process proceeds to step S5.

  In step S5, the failure diagnosis unit 3 diagnoses that the target EV is broken.

  In step S <b> 6, the failure part specifying unit 5 acquires the time difference between the ideal timing and the actual timing from the failure diagnosis unit 3, refers to the failure information DB 4, extracts failure information that matches the time difference, and matches the time difference. If there is failure information, the failure portion of the extracted failure information is specified as the failure portion of the target EV.

For example, when it is determined in step S8 that the next maintenance date / time has not been determined by the building-specific maintenance / replacement management unit 7 (No in step S8), in step S10, the notification unit 8 causes the target EV to fail. The diagnosis result indicating that the failure has occurred and the identified failure part are displayed on the display device 103, output as sound via the sound output device 106, or transmitted to the maintenance terminal 300.

  On the other hand, if the time difference is equal to or smaller than the threshold value in step S4 (NO in step S4), the process proceeds to step S11. In step S11, the failure diagnosis unit 3 diagnoses that the target EV is normal. Thereafter, in step S10, the notification unit 8 notifies the diagnosis result that the target EV is normal. Then, this process ends.

  In step S6, if there is no failure information that matches the time difference, the process proceeds to step S10, and the notification unit 8 notifies the diagnosis result that the target EV has failed.

  The maintenance work support apparatus 100 performs the above processing at a predetermined time interval or at a predetermined timing so as to diagnose the failure of the target EV and to ensure that the maintenance work including article replacement and inspection work is performed.
