  • Publication number: 20230280240
    Abstract: An abnormality diagnosis device includes an abnormality determination unit configured to determine whether or not there is an abnormality with respect to a state quantity acquired from equipment and a cause estimation unit configured to estimate a cause of the abnormality in the equipment from a state quantity determined to be abnormal by the abnormality determination unit using a cause correspondence table in which a cause of an abnormal mode of the equipment identified in fault tree analysis is associated with the state quantity that is abnormal when the cause has occurred.

  • Publication number: 20230259111
    Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to provide an abnormality detection system and refrigerator, an abnormality detection method, and an abnormality detection program which can improve the accuracy of abnormality detection. The abnormality detection system comprises: an acquisition unit which acquires driving data of a refrigerator (11); a creation unit which creates a model capable of estimating a prescribed driving state of the refrigerator (11) on the basis of the driving data, when the driving data is non-trained data; a determination unit which compares an estimation value of the driving state, the estimation value being estimated by the model, with an actual measurement value corresponding to the driving state, and determines whether the driving data is an outlier; and an abnormality detection unit which performs, on the basis of the model, abnormality detection on the refrigerator (11), when the driving data is not determined to be the outlier.

  • Publication number: 20210396420
    Abstract: A device management system manages one or more devices installed in a property. The device management system includes an information terminal that stores first setting information of the one or more devices, and an acquisition apparatus that acquires second setting information of the one or more devices from the one or more devices. The information terminal includes a communication unit that communicates with the acquisition apparatus via a non-public line. The information terminal or the acquisition apparatus compares the first setting information stored in the information terminal with the second setting information acquired by the acquisition apparatus.

  • Patent number: 10901384
    Abstract: An equipment management system includes a control terminal and a management apparatus. The control terminal transmits equipment information related to equipment. The management apparatus includes a CPU and an interface. The management apparatus controls the control terminal through a network. The CPU executes calculation of information processing that is based on information received from the control terminal, determines a load level corresponding to a load of the information processing by the calculation unit, and executes reduction control to reduce the load on the calculation unit in accordance with the load level. The interface being transmits the load level to the control terminal. The control terminal changes, in accordance with the load level, a communication condition of equipment information to be transmitted to the management apparatus.
