  • Patent number: 11787057
    Abstract: A diagnostic system includes an acquirer configured to acquire current waveform data representing a waveform relating to a current supplied to a driving device of an apparatus and a determiner configured to determine a degree of abnormality in the apparatus from a varying portion of the waveform, the varying portion corresponding to a varying time period during which a rotation speed of the driving device increases or decreases.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 31, 2019
    Date of Patent: October 17, 2023

    Inventors: Kenta Kamizono, Kazutaka Ikeda, Naofumi Shimasaki
  • Patent number: 11544554
    Abstract: A determiner which learns acceleration measurement data which has been obtained by an accelerated aging test and indicates that a facility changes from a normal state to an aged state, and advance label data which is obtained by giving a label to data indicating characteristics of aging in the acceleration measurement data. Measurement data of aging diagnosis is obtained from the facility which is operating, teacher aging degree label data is found from a record of maintenance of the facility, and additional data is obtained from the measurement data and the teacher aging degree label data. When a difference between predicted aging degree label data and teacher aging degree label data is greater than a predetermined value, learning data is selected as additional learning data. The additional learning data is learned to update the determiner.
