May be done.

4. Configuration of Management Server 70 The management server 70 is a cloud server and is communicably connected to a plurality of clients (for example, a plurality of assistance devices 10 and a plurality of management devices 80) via the Internet. The management server 70 stores log data M1 uploaded from the plurality of care devices 10. Further, the management server 70 transmits the log data M1 recorded in the predetermined care device 10 to the management device 80 in response to the request of the management device 80.

The management server 70 transmits, for example, only a part of the log data M1 related to the predetermined care device 10 to the management device 80 in response to a request. Specifically, the management server 70 may transmit to the management device 80 a part of the log data M1 recorded in the predetermined period among the log data M1 over the entire period in which the predetermined care device 10 is operated. In addition, the management server 70 may transmit to the management device 80 in a state where some information such as the detection value and the identification information of the detection sensor 65 is excluded. As a result, the management device 80 can appropriately download only necessary information from the management server 70.

5. Configuration of the management device 80 The management device 80 targets the care device 10 as a management target, and provides various information and the like based on the acquired log data M1. The management device 80 is, for example, a terminal device such as a personal computer installed in a facility where the care device 10 is installed or a mobile terminal (smartphone, tablet terminal). In the present embodiment, the management device 80 includes a display device 81, a storage device 82, an analysis unit 83, and a guide unit 84.

The display device 81 displays various information generated by the analysis unit 83 and the guide unit 84. The display device 81 may be, for example, a touch screen that accepts operations by a viewer of various information. In the present embodiment, the display device 81 displays the proficiency level calculated by the analysis unit 83 and the improvement items of the operation by the guide unit 84. Details of the above "proficiency level" and "improvement items" will be described later.

The storage device 82 is composed of an optical drive device such as a hard disk device, a flash memory, or the like. The storage device 82 stores the log data M1 acquired from the management server 70, the usage record data M2 generated by the analysis unit 83, and the guidance information M3 generated by the guidance unit 84. Details of the usage record data M2 and the guidance information M3 will be described later.

The analysis unit 83 executes various analysis processes on the log data M1. In the present embodiment, the analysis process by the analysis unit 83 includes a process of detecting a transfer operation in the log data M1 and a process of calculating the proficiency level of the operation of the care device 10 by the operator. Here, in the operation history and operation history recorded in the log data M1, in addition to the one for actually executing the transfer operation, the operation related to the test run in the state where the care recipient H is not on board, etc. Operations are also included. Therefore, the analysis unit 83 is configured to execute the transfer operation detection process.

Specifically, the analysis unit 83 first detects the cycle operation executed in the order of the standing operation and the sitting operation in the log data M1. At this time, the cycle operation may include a series of adjustment operations performed in connection with at least one of the standing operation and the sitting operation. The above-mentioned adjustment operation may include, for example, an elevating operation of the support member 40 executed during the standing operation, a turning operation of the support member 40 executed when the person being assisted H gets on and off, and the like.

Then, the analysis unit 83 determines based on the log data M1 whether or not the detected cycle operation is a transfer operation in which the person being assisted H is transferred. The reason for performing such a determination process is that the detected cycle operation may include a test run or the like. The determination process may be performed based on the pressing order and pressing time of various buttons of the operating device 50, and the detection result of the detection sensor 65. In the present embodiment, the analysis unit 83 first determines the interval between the standing motion and the sitting motion in the cycle motion, specifically, the time from the end time of the standing motion to the start time of the sitting motion (hereinafter referred to as "intermediate time"). calculate. Next, the analysis unit 83 determines that the cycle operation is the transfer operation when the intermediate time is within the specified period.

Here, if the assisting device 10 is not a test run and the assisted person H is on board the assisting device 10 and the transfer operation is executed for some purpose, the direction is changed, the movement, or the assisted person is performed after the standing operation is completed. Processing is performed according to the purpose of the transfer operation such as undressing of H. As a result, intermediate time is generated by the time required for the above processing. On the other hand, when the intermediate time is excessively long (when the intermediate time exceeds the specified period), it can be determined that, for example, the assist device 10 has been stored. Therefore, the analysis unit 83 determines whether or not the cycle operation is a transfer operation based on the length of the intermediate time as described above.

Further, the analysis unit 83 calculates the proficiency level of the operation for the care device 10 as described above. Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the analysis unit 83 generates the usage record data M2 of the assistance device 10, including the number of times the assistance device 10 has been used, the usage time, and the proficiency level. The above "number of uses" corresponds to the number of executions of the transfer operation. The above "use time" corresponds to the cumulative total of time required for the transfer operation. Further, the above-mentioned "proficiency level" is an index showing the degree of improvement of the operator of the care device 10. Therefore, the higher the proficiency level, the shorter the time required for the transfer operation, and the less the burden on the care recipient H and the caregiver (operator).

The analysis unit 83 calculates the proficiency level based on the evaluation values for each of the evaluation items T1-T8 shown in FIG. The evaluation item T1 is the number of executions of the standing motion and the sitting motion. That is, the analysis unit 83 calculates that the proficiency level increases as the number of times at least one of the standing motion and the sitting motion is executed by the caregiving device 10 increases. This is based on the fact that the proficiency level of the operator is considered to improve as the standing motion or the sitting motion is performed.

The evaluation item T2 is the number of times various buttons of the operating device 50 are pressed in the transfer operation. That is, the analysis unit 83 calculates that the proficiency level increases as the number of times of various operations requested to execute various operations in the transfer operation decreases. This is based on the fact that the higher the proficiency level of the operator, the less the button is pressed in small steps for a series of operations.

When evaluating the operations related to the transfer operation as described above, the proficiency level of a series of operations requesting the execution of the transfer operation (operations requesting the standing operation, the sitting operation, and the adjustment operation) is calculated. May be good. Further, the analysis unit 83 may evaluate each transfer operation once, or may evaluate a plurality of transfer operations collectively.

The evaluation item T3 is the length of the intermediate time. That is, the analysis unit 83 calculates that the closer the interval (intermediate time) between the standing motion and the sitting motion in the transfer motion is to the required time preset according to the purpose of the transfer motion, the higher the proficiency level. This is based on the fact that the higher the proficiency level of the operator, the shorter the time required for the transfer operation, and the closer to the ideal time required according to the purpose of the transfer operation (for example, transfer between the bed and the wheelchair). Is.

The evaluation item T4 is a moving distance or a rotation angle of the assisting device 10 in the transfer operation. That is, the analysis unit 83 calculates that the closer the moving distance or rotation angle of the assisting device 10 in the transfer operation is to the predetermined distance or the predetermined angle set in advance according to the purpose of the transfer operation, the higher the proficiency level. This is based on the fact that the higher the proficiency level of the operator, the more efficiently the caregiving device 10 is moved to the target position, and the more efficiently the caregiving device 10 is turned to the target angle. ..

The evaluation item T5 is a load variation of the assist device 10 in the transfer operation. That is, the analysis unit 83 calculates that the smaller the load fluctuation of the assist device 10 in the transfer operation, the higher the proficiency level. This is based on the fact that the higher the proficiency level of the operator, the more stable the posture of the person being assisted H during the transfer operation, and as a result, the smaller the load fluctuation of the assist device 10 in the transfer operation. The load fluctuation of the assist device 10 can be acquired based on the detection result of the detection sensor 65 such as the load cell.

The evaluation item T6 is the number of times the cancellation process is executed. That is, the analysis unit 83 calculates that the less the number of times the cancellation process is executed, the higher the proficiency level. This is based on the fact that the higher the proficiency level of the operator, the more the operator recognizes whether the operation on the operation device 50 is effectively reflected in various operations or the cancellation process is executed. .. For example, it is considered that an operator with a high degree of proficiency does not perform an operation of requesting the elevating part 31 to move in a direction exceeding the range of motion while the elevating part 31 has reached the movement limit of the range of motion. ..

The evaluation item T7 is the angle of the support member 40 when the person being assisted H is on board. That is, the analysis unit 83 calculates the angle of the support member 40 with respect to the vertical direction when the person being assisted H gets into the care device 10 based on the log data M1, and the calculated angle of the support member is predetermined. Calculate so that the smaller the angle, the higher the proficiency level. This is based on the idea that the higher the proficiency level of the operator, the more the operation is performed so as to be adjusted in advance so that the angle of the support member 40 when the care recipient H gets in is an appropriate angle. It is a thing. The angle of the support member 40 can be calculated directly or indirectly from the state of the care device 10 included in the log data M1.

The evaluation item T8 is the height of the support member 40 when the assist device 10 is on board. That is, the analysis unit 83 calculates the height of the support member 40 when the person being assisted H gets into the care device 10 based on the log data M1, and the calculated height of the support member 40 is set in advance. Calculate so that the lower the height, the higher the proficiency level. This is based on the fact that the higher the proficiency level of the operator, the more the support member 40 is adjusted to a height suitable for boarding.

The analysis unit 83 calculates the proficiency level based on at least one of the evaluation items T1-T8 as described above. In the present embodiment, the analysis unit 83 has a proficiency level based on the sum of the products of the evaluation values Ve1-Ve8 calculated for each evaluation item T1-T8 and the coefficients K1-K8 preset for each evaluation item T1-T8. Is calculated.

Here, depending on the environment in which the care device 10 is introduced, the care device 10 may be used to assist the operation of the plurality of assisted persons H, and may be operated by a plurality of operators. The analysis unit 83 may divide a plurality of operators or a plurality of assisted persons H into one or more groups, and calculate the proficiency level for each group based on the log data M1. For example, the analysis unit 83 sets a plurality of operators who have operated the care device 10 in a predetermined period into one group, and calculates the proficiency level related to the use by this group. This makes it possible to evaluate a group of operations.

The above group may be divided into groups for each of the plurality of care devices 10, for example, when a plurality of care devices 10 are introduced in the care facility. In addition, the group can be divided according to the period, the day of the week, the time zone of use, and the like.

The guide unit 84 causes the display device 81 to display the improvement items of the operation by the operator. More specifically, the guide unit 84 creates an operation improvement item based on at least one of the operation history and the operation history included in the log data M1 and the reference information indicating the evaluation standard of the proficiency level. In the above-mentioned standard information, an evaluation standard is set for each of a plurality of evaluation items T1-T8, indicating how much the evaluation value Ve1-Ve8 is to be a standard proficiency level. In the present embodiment, the guide unit 84 extracts the evaluation items having a relatively low evaluation value Ve1-Ve8 from the plurality of evaluation items T1-T8 based on the evaluation criteria, and improves the items corresponding to the evaluation items. create.

More specifically, for example, when the evaluation value Ve5 of the evaluation item T5 (load fluctuation of the assisting device 10) is low, the guide unit 84 determines that the time when the load fluctuation occurs is when the person being assisted H is on board. Adjustment of the height and angle of the support member 40 is an improvement item so that more stable boarding is possible. The amount and timing of load fluctuations are specified based on the operation history and operation history. Further, for example, when the evaluation value Ve6 of the evaluation item T6 (the number of times the cancellation process is executed) is low, the guide unit 84 makes the presentation of an effective button operation in which the cancel process is not executed an improvement item.

Such improvement items may be configured to be generated only for those having a particularly low evaluation value, or the content of the improvement items may be changed according to the evaluation value. One or a plurality of improvements are recorded as guidance information M3 and displayed on the display device 81. As a result, the operator can recognize how to improve the operation based on the displayed improvement items. As a result, the state of operation of the operator can be assisted.
