  • Patent number: 11332313
    Abstract: A conveyor belt monitoring system includes an imaging device which sequentially images a longitudinal predetermined range of a conveyor belt in running from above the conveyor belt. Image data captured by the imaging device is displayed in a monitor, and then is sequentially input into a control unit as detection data. The control unit causes a meander suppressing device to reduce a meander width of the conveyor belt on the basis of the image data.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11053648
    Abstract: A pneumatic fender monitoring system is provided. Image data captured by using at least one of a front view imaging device that successively images an external shape in a front view of a pneumatic fender used disposed between a vessel and a vessel or a side view imaging device that successively images the external shape in a side view of the pneumatic fender is successively input into a control unit and successively displayed on a monitor, and the control unit determines, on the basis of the image data, whether an amount of deformation of the external shape of the pneumatic fender is within a preset tolerance range or outside of a preset tolerance range.
