  The component information collection unit 111 temporarily stores the component information obtained by reading the barcode of the component by the component information reading unit 104 in the storage unit 120 of the maintenance terminal 100 as the replacement component information 124.

  The position information determination unit 112 compares the on-site position information 122 acquired from the center system 200 when reading the part information from the part barcode, and the terminal position information 123, and the part is represented by the on-site position information 122. It is determined whether or not it has been used at the original use position.

(2) Component Information Collection Processing Hereinafter, an example of component information collection processing according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. A worker who has the maintenance terminal 100 activates and operates the business application 110, whereby the maintenance terminal 100 acquires the work information 121 from the work information table 211 of the center system 200 and stores it in the storage unit 120. (Step S301).

  Thereafter, the worker performs the work while referring to the work information 121 on the display device 101. When the operator operates the business application 110, the work site, the elevator machine number, and the serial number are selected based on the work information 121, and the part information collection unit 111 of the business application 110 is activated (step S302). ).

  The component information collection unit 111 causes the component information reading unit 104 to read a barcode that is pasted on the replacement component in advance (step S303). At this time, the component information collection unit 111 transmits, for example, a customer number as identification information for specifying the selected work target site to the center system 200, and requests the site position information 122 of the site (step). S304).

  In the center system 200, the control unit 202 searches the site location information table 212, and returns the site location information 122 that matches the received customer number to the maintenance terminal 100 (step S305).

  In the maintenance terminal 100, the business application 110 stores the received site location information 122 in the storage unit 120 (step S306). In the business application 110, the terminal position detection unit 102 stores the acquired terminal position information 123 of the maintenance terminal 100 in the storage unit 120 (step S307).

  Next, the business application 110 compares the location position information 122 stored in the storage unit 120 with the terminal location information 123 by the location information determination unit 112 so that the location indicated by the location location information 122 and the terminal location information 123 are obtained. It is determined whether or not the position to be represented is within a certain distance (steps S308 and S309).

  When it is determined that the position indicated by the on-site position information 122 and the position indicated by the terminal position information 123 are within a certain distance, the business application 110 stores the read barcode part information as replacement part information 124. The data is stored in the unit 120 (step S310).

  Here, the above-mentioned “certain distance” is assumed to be work in the vicinity of the elevator machine room or the elevator landing, and is, for example, about 10 m. You may make it set a different distance for every field according to the installation form of an elevator or a machine room. In addition, in the case of equipment with a machine room provided in the upper part, positioning accuracy is good. In the case of the installed equipment, since the positioning accuracy is poor, it may be determined more strictly whether or not it is within the “fixed distance”.

  If it is determined that the on-site position information 122 and the terminal position information 123 are not within a certain distance in position, the business application 110 displays an error message on the display device 101 and stores the replacement part information 124 in the storage unit 120. No (step S311).

  As the content of this error message, for example, as shown in the screen example of FIG. 6, “the current position does not match the position of the site to be replaced, so replacement part information cannot be registered. Please register replacement parts information at the site. "

  The replacement part information 124 stored in the storage unit 120 is transmitted from the maintenance terminal 100 to the center system 200 by the business application 110 and accumulated in the part information table 213 (step S312).

  The transmission of the replacement part information 124 to the center system 200 may be performed from the field. Instead, after all the work on the day is completed, when the worker returns to the office, other work is performed. You may transmit with result data.

  In the present embodiment, the parts replacement work of the elevator is exemplified, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the present invention can be similarly applied to elevators of other forms such as an escalator.

  The part information reading means may be other means such as an IC tag in addition to the barcode (one-dimensional or two-dimensional) already described in the present embodiment. In addition to the positioning system such as GPS (Global Positioning System) already described in the present embodiment, the location information acquisition means of the maintenance terminal 100 includes primary information including site-specific information such as a customer number that is pasted to the site in advance. Even if it is performed by means that can confirm that the maintenance terminal 100 exists on the site, such as reading the original barcode or two-dimensional barcode, or reading information unique to the elevator such as the serial number from the microcomputer or monitoring device of the elevator Good.

  The acquisition of the on-site position information 122 is requested to the center system 200 when the parts information collection unit 111 reads the barcode in the above embodiment, but the work schedule is obtained when the work information 121 is obtained in the processing step S301. May be acquired at the same time and stored in the storage unit 120 in advance.

  As a result, when collecting replacement part information at the elevator maintenance site, the location information of the replacement part and its installation site is reliably collected and accumulated, and even after the replacement part is installed, the replacement part and its installation site Can be tracked accurately.
