Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to an inspection management system and an inspection management method. [Background technology]

[0002] At construction sites, construction machinery and other equipment are inspected by inspectors. In conventional inspection work, inspectors would write down the inspection results on a printed inspection sheet. The manager of the prime contractor who requested the inspection would collect the inspection sheets and redistribute them to the inspectors with an approval stamp.

[0003] A system aimed at improving the efficiency of such inspection work has already been proposed (for example, see Patent Document 1). In this system, a service staff member of a construction machinery manufacturer or rental company uses a mobile phone to display an inspection item acquisition screen and transmits the inspection results entered on the inspection item acquisition screen to a center server.

[0009] An embodiment of an inspection management system and an inspection management method will be described below with reference to Figs. 1 to 11. In this embodiment, a contracting company that manages an entire site such as a construction site requests an inspection company to inspect machines at the site. The machines are machines that are used at the site and require inspection, such as construction machines. The contracting company also requests a machinery management company to lend at least some of the machines to be used at the site. The inspection company and the machinery management company may be the same company. There may be multiple contracting companies, machinery management companies, and inspection companies that use the inspection management system.

[0010] 1, the inspection management system 1 includes a server 10, a site management terminal 11, a machine management terminal 12, and an inspector terminal 13. These are connected via a network 14 such as the Internet.

[0011] A plurality of site management terminals 11, machine management terminals 12, and inspector terminals 13 are connected to the server 10. The server 10 is composed of one or more computers. The site management terminal 11 is a terminal used by a site manager belonging to a contractor. The site manager manages the people in charge (workers, etc.) who work on site and the machines brought into the site. The site manager corresponds to an approver who approves (confirms) the inspection results of the machines. The site management terminal corresponds to an approver terminal.

[0012] The machine management terminal 12 is a terminal used by a machine owner manager who belongs to a machine management company. A machine management company is a rental company that rents out machines, and rents out the machines it owns to each site based on a request from a contractor or the like. For example, a machine management company rents out a forklift to "site A" and an aerial work platform to "site B."

[0013] The inspector terminal 13 is a terminal used by an inspector who belongs to an inspection company and performs inspections. The inspector (or inspection manager) and the owner machine manager may be the same person. The inspector may be an operator who operates the machine. The inspector inspects machines brought into one or more work sites. One example of an inspection is an inspection before work using the machine at the work site, which is performed on a work day. Another example of an inspection is a regular inspection, which is performed periodically on the target machine regardless of the work day.

[0014] A program used for inspection management is installed in the inspector terminal 13. The program has an interface and the like that allows data communication with the server 10. The program can access an imaging device provided in the inspector terminal 13. This program may also be installed in at least one of the site management terminal 11 and the machine management terminal 12. Screens related to inspection management can also be displayed by a web browser installed in each terminal.

[0015] The site management terminal 11, the machine management terminal 12, and the inspector terminal 13 are mobile terminals such as smartphones (multifunction telephone devices), tablet computers, personal computers such as notebook computers and desktop computers, wearable computers, etc. The site manager, the machine owner manager, and the inspector are users who use the inspection management system 1.

[0016] <Hardware configuration description> 2 shows a schematic hardware configuration of an information processing device H10 that constitutes the server 10, the site management terminal 11, the machine management terminal 12, and the inspector terminal 13. The information processing device H10 includes a processor H11, a communication device H12, and a storage device H13. These are connected via a system bus H17, etc. This hardware configuration is an example, and it is also possible to realize it using other hardware.

[0017] The communication device H12 is an interface that establishes a communication path with other devices via the network 14 and transmits and receives data. For example, the communication device H12 is a network interface or a wireless interface.

[0018] The storage device H13 (computer-readable medium) stores data and various programs for executing various functions. The storage device H13 is composed of, for example, a main storage device and an auxiliary storage device. Examples of the storage device H13 include ROM, RAM, and a hard disk. The storage device H13 includes any available recording medium that can be accessed by a general-purpose or dedicated computer.

[0019] The processor H11 controls each process using programs and data stored in the storage device H13. Examples of the processor H11 include a CPU and an MPU. The processor H11 loads the programs into the RAM and executes various processes for each process.

[0020] The processor H11 is not limited to a processor that performs software processing for all the processes it executes. For example, the processor H11 may be equipped with a dedicated hardware circuit (e.g., an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC)) that performs hardware processing for at least a part of the processes it executes. That is, the processor H11 may be configured as any of the following:

[0021] [1] One or more processors that operate according to a computer program (software). [2] One or more dedicated hardware circuits that perform at least some of the various processes [3] Circuits that include combinations of these The information processing device H10 also includes an input device H14, a display device H15, and a speaker H16. These are connected via a system bus H17, etc. The server 10 may be configured such that the input device H14, the display device H15, and the speaker H16 are omitted.

[0022] The input device H14 is a device that accepts input of various information based on the operation of a person in charge and a device that inputs voice. The input device H14 is, for example, a touch panel, a mouse, a keyboard, a microphone, etc. The display device H15 is a display that displays various information. The display device H15 may be combined with the touch panel that is the input device H14 to form a touch panel display. The speaker H16 outputs various voice data. Furthermore, the inspector terminal 13 and the machine management terminal 12 may be equipped with an imaging device in addition to the configuration shown in FIG. 2.

[0023] <Server functions> The functions of the server 10 will now be described with reference to FIG. The server 10 comprises a site information storage unit 22, an inspection master storage unit 23, an owned machine information storage unit 24, and an inspection information storage unit 25. The site information storage unit 22 stores information about each site, such as the inspection history of the machine at the site. The inspection master storage unit 23 stores master data of the inspection items of the machine. The owned machine information storage unit 24 stores information about the machines owned by the machine management company. The inspection information storage unit 25 stores the inspection items of the machine. In this embodiment, the inspection items are information managed by the inspection company.

[0024] The server 10 also functions as a control unit 15 by the processor H11 executing a program stored in the storage device H13. The control unit 15 includes a site information management unit 20 and an inspection history management unit .

[0025] When the inspection master 34 is updated, the site information management unit 20 updates the information in the inspection management information 36 excluding the portion changed by the inspection person involved in the inspection. An example of an inspection person is an inspector or inspection manager belonging to an inspection company. The inspection manager is a manager belonging to an inspection company and may be the same person as the inspector. The owner machine manager may be the inspection person. The inspection person and the inspector may be the same person. The site information management unit 20 also acquires the machine identification information from the inspector terminal 13 used by the inspector. Furthermore, the site information management unit 20 acquires the inspection items corresponding to the acquired machine identification information from the inspection information storage unit 25 and displays them on the inspector terminal 13.

[0026] The inspection history management unit 21 obtains the inspection results of the machine from the inspector terminal 13 and records them in the site information storage unit 22. It also obtains the inspection results of the machine to be approved from the site information storage unit 22 and displays them on the site management terminal 11 used by the site manager as the approver. It also obtains the approval result from the site management terminal 11 and updates the inspection history information 33.

[0027] <Data Structure> The structure of the database used for inspection management will be described with reference to Figures 4 to 6. Users who can create or edit each database are set. Various data in the database that can be created or edited by the site manager will be described with reference to Fig. 4. Site machine management information 31 and inspection history information 33 are stored in the site information storage unit 22. Inspection master 34 is stored in the inspection master storage unit 23.

[0028] The site machine management information 31 is information for managing multiple machines used at a site. The site machine management information 31 includes, for each machine identification information, site identification information, site manager, owned machine manager, inspector, and inspection deadline. The machine identification information is information such as machine type, management name, and bring-in number, and is information capable of identifying each machine. The site identification information is identification information assigned to the site. The site manager, owned machine manager, and inspector are identifiers (user IDs) of users in charge of managing, lending, and inspecting machines, respectively. The inspection deadline is information stored when a machine is subject to regular inspection, and indicates the next inspection deadline.

[0029] The user information 32 includes information on multiple users for each site identification information. For example, the user information 32 includes information on the site manager, inspector, and owner machine manager. The user information 32 includes a user ID and the name of the company to which the user belongs. The user ID is an identifier for the site manager, inspector, or owner machine manager. In addition, the user information 32 includes the user's contact information.

[0030] The inspection history information 33 indicates the inspection history for each machine. The inspection history information 33 includes the inspection date and time, inspection items, inspection results, and approval results for each machine identification information. The inspection results indicate the inspection results for the inspection items. The inspection results may include information such as "pass" or "fail", as well as the reason for failure and corrective measures. The approval result indicates whether the site manager has approved the inspection results.

[0031] The inspection master 34 is master data indicating inspection items for each type of machine. The inspection master 34 includes machine attribute information, inspection items, and main points for each machine type. The machine type indicates the type of machine. The machine type corresponds to the machine identification information. The machine attribute information indicates specifications or capabilities, etc. The inspection items indicate the inspection items for the machine. The main points are explanations related to the inspection items. The inspection master 34 includes multiple combinations of inspection items and main points.

[0032] With reference to FIG. 5, the owned machine information 35, which is one of the data stored in the server 10 and can be changed by the owned machine manager, will be described. The owned machine information 35 is stored in the owned machine information storage unit 24. The owned machine manager can register information on machines owned by the machine management company as the owned machine information 35. The owned machine information 35 includes the owning company, machine identification information, and machine attribute information. The machine identification information corresponds to the machine identification information in the site machine management information 31 and the inspection history information 33, and the machine type in the inspection master 34. The owning company is the machine management company. Based on a request from a contractor company, the owned machine manager or the site manager uses the machine management terminal 12 to register information corresponding to the requested machine from the owned machine information 35 in association with the site to be rented.

[0033] 6, a description will be given of inspection management information 36 that can be changed by an inspector or an inspection manager who is a manager of an inspection company, among the data stored in the server 10. The inspection management information 36 is stored in the inspection information storage unit 25.

[0034] The inspection management information 36 is registered for each inspection company, and indicates the inspection items for inspecting the machine. The inspection management information 36 includes machine identification information, inspection items, main points, additional items, and their main points. The inspection items and main points are updated by the inspection master 34. The additional items and their main points are the inspection items and their main points changed by the inspection manager or inspector of the inspection company (changed parts). When the inspection master 34 is updated, the site information management unit 20 updates the inspection management information 36. However, the server 10 does not update at least the additional inspection items and their main points changed by the inspection manager or inspector. Note that, when the inspection manager or inspector edits the inspection items or main points, the edited contents may be registered as additional items in the inspection management information 36. That is, in this case, the change of the inspection items includes the addition and editing of the inspection items. Note that, in addition to the inspection companies, the inspection management information 36 may be registered for each machine management company.

[0035] <Inspection and management method> The data flow in inspection management will be described with reference to FIG. The owned machine manager uses the machine management terminal 12 to register the owned machines owned by the machine management company in advance in the server 10. The machine management terminal 12 transmits owned machine information 35 indicating the owned machines to the server 10 based on the operation of the machine manager. The site information management unit 20 registers the owned machine information 35 for each machine management company. The machine identification information of the owned machine information 35 corresponds to the machine type in the inspection master 34.

[0036] The control unit 15 updates the inspection master 34 as necessary. For example, the update is addition, editing, or deletion of an inspection item or a main point. The control unit 15 may update the inspection master 34 based on a request from the site management terminal 11.

[0037] When the control unit 15 updates the inspection master 34, it updates the inspection management information 36 having the machine identification information corresponding to the machine type. At this time, the site information management unit 20 updates information other than the added items and the main points of the added items, which are the changed information.

[0038] In other words, the added items and the main points of the added items are information customized by the inspector, etc. If the information customized by the inspector, etc. is deleted when updating the inspection master 34, the inspector, etc. will have to go through the trouble of having to re-register the deleted information. For this reason, by at least not updating the added items and the main points of the added items, the inspection management information 36 is always kept up to date while maintaining the improvements made by the inspector, etc.

[0039] In addition, the owned machine manager uses the machine management terminal 12 to select a machine to be loaned out to the site from the owned machine information 35. The machine management terminal 12 transmits a registration request including the machine identification information and site identification information of the selected machine to the server 10. The site information management unit 20 of the server 10 adds the machine identification information, etc. to the site machine management information 31 corresponding to the site based on the site identification information.

[0040] When a machine is registered in the site machine management information 31, the site management terminal 11 acquires a part of the site machine management information 31 from the server 10 based on the operation of the site manager. At this time, the server 10 or the site management terminal 11 generates a two-dimensional code as an identification code based on the part of the site machine management information 31. The site management terminal 11 creates the machine identification tag 50 by outputting this two-dimensional code to a printing device. The machine identification tag 50 may be created by the owner machine manager or an inspector instead of the site manager. The site manager etc. attaches the machine identification tag 50 to the corresponding machine 100.

[0041] The inspector terminal 13 starts a program and logs in to the server 10. The inspector also starts an imaging device and captures a picture of the two-dimensional code on the machine identification tag 50 attached to the machine 100 to be inspected. The inspector terminal 13 analyzes the captured data of the two-dimensional code to obtain machine identification information. The two-dimensional code may include site identification information. The inspector terminal 13 then transmits a request for inspection items, including the machine identification information, to the server 10.

[0042] The site information management unit 20 of the server 10 acquires the inspection item information including the received machine identification information from the inspection information storage unit 25. Then, the site information management unit 20 transmits the inspection item information to the inspector terminal 13.

[0043] The inspector terminal 13 displays an inspection screen on the display device H15 based on the received inspection management information 36. The inspector refers to the inspection items and main points displayed on the inspection screen and inputs the inspection results. The inspector terminal 13 transmits the inspection results to the server 10.

[0044] In this way, the inspector can easily obtain the inspection items even if he / she does not know what identification information is assigned to the machine at the site. In addition, the site manager does not need to tell the inspector the machine's identification information and its inspection items.

[0045] Another method of acquiring machine identification information will now be described. The inspector terminal 13 starts up the imaging device and captures an image of the two-dimensional code on the site identification tag 51 attached to the machine 100 to be inspected. The site identification tag 51 is printed by the site management terminal 11 or the like. The two-dimensional code on the site identification tag 51 contains site identification information. The inspector terminal 13 analyzes the captured data to acquire the site identification information, and also transmits a request for a list of machines at the site to the server 10.

[0046] The server 10 searches for all on-site machine management information 31 that includes the received on-site identification information. Then, it transmits the machine identification information of the on-site machine management information 31 to the inspector terminal 13. The inspector terminal 13 displays a list of machines. The inspector terminal 13 accepts the inspector's selection of a machine from the list of machines, and transmits a request for inspection items including the machine identification information to the server 10. Then, the inspector terminal 13 receives the inspection management information 36 from the server 10, and displays an inspection screen on the display device H15, similar to the case where the machine identification tag 50 is used. Note that the inspector can also select a machine from a list of machines registered by the inspector, a list of machines inspected by the inspection company, or a list of machines owned by the machine management company.

[0047] <Inspection result registration process procedure> The process procedure in which the server 10 transmits the inspection items and registers the inspection results will be described. As shown in Fig. 8, the site information management unit 20 of the server 10 receives a request for inspection items from the inspector terminal 13 (step S1). The inspection items include at least the machine identification information and the user ID of the inspector.

[0048] The site information management unit 20 searches for the inspection management information 36 that includes the received machine identification information (step S2). The server 10 acquires the inspection management information 36 based on the site machine management information 31 acquired as a result of the search.

[0049] When the site information management unit 20 detects the inspection management information 36, it transmits the inspection management information 36 to the inspector terminal 13 based on the user ID (step S3). The inspector terminal 13 displays an inspection screen based on the inspection management information 36 on the display device H15. The inspector inputs the inspection results on the inspection screen. The inspector terminal 13 transmits the inspection results together with the user ID to the server 10. At this time, the inspector terminal 13 may transmit at least one of a photo and a comment to the server 10.

[0050] Upon receiving the inspection result, the inspection history management unit 21 registers the inspection result and the user ID in the inspection history information 33 (step S4). <Approval process procedure> The procedure of the approval process will be described with reference to Fig. 9. The server 10 receives a request for an approval list from the site management terminal 11. The approval list request includes the user ID of the site manager. The approval list may also include a search key for searching the inspection history information 33. For example, the search key may be "unapproved", "approved", site identification information, etc.

[0051] The inspection history management unit 21 identifies the machine to be approved by using the user ID of the site manager as a search key (step S10). The server 10 also acquires the inspection history information 33 corresponding to the machine to be approved and transmits it to the site management terminal 11 (step S11).

[0052] The site management terminal 11 outputs the approval screen to the display device H15. The site manager refers to the approval screen and gives approval, etc., for the inspection results. The site management terminal 11 transmits the approval information to the server 10.

[0053] The inspection history management unit 21 receives the approval information from the site management terminal 11 (step S12). The inspection history management unit 21 also updates the inspection history information using the approval information (step S13). Furthermore, when the inspection history management unit 21 determines that approval has been given for a machine that requires periodic inspection such as a monthly inspection in addition to the daily inspection, it updates the inspection deadline with the latest inspection date and time. It also searches at predetermined time intervals to see whether any machine in the on-site machinery management information 31 has reached its inspection deadline. When the inspection history management unit 21 determines that any machine has reached its inspection deadline, it sends a notification to the contact information (e.g., email address) of the owner machinery manager based on the user information 32.

[0054] <Inspection screen> Each screen displayed by the inspector terminal 13 will be described with reference to Fig. 10. The screen illustrated in Fig. 10 shows a screen displayed by a program (application) installed on a mobile terminal such as a smartphone. Note that the inspector terminal 13 can also display the inspection screen using a web browser.

[0055] The machines registered for the site are displayed on the machine selection screen 60. The machine selection screen 60 displays the site name 61 and a machine list based on multiple pieces of machine identification information 62. When a machine is selected from the machine list, the inspector terminal 13 displays an inspection screen 65. The inspector terminal 13 can display the machine selection screen 60 by using the site identification tag 51.

[0056] The inspection screen 65 is displayed when the machine identification tag 50 is used, or when transitioning from the machine selection screen 60, etc. The inspection screen 65 displays inspection items 66 (inspection matters) and main points 67. The inspection items 66 display an inspection result input section 68. For example, the inspection result input section 68 allows the selection of a mark indicating "good" (e.g., a check mark), a mark indicating "repair required (good)" (e.g., "◯"), or a mark indicating "repair required" (e.g., "X"). When the send button 69 is selected, the inspector terminal 13 transmits the inspection results input by the inspector on the inspection screen 65 to the server 10.

[0057] <Approval screen> The approval screen displayed by the site management terminal 11 will be described with reference to FIG. The approval screen 70 includes a machine identification display 71, an inspection company 72, approval information 73, and an inspection date and time 74. The site manager can select the inspection results to approve on the approval screen 70. When the site management terminal 11 accepts the approval operation, it transmits the approval information to the server 10.

[0058] Furthermore, the site management terminal 11 accepts the operation of the site manager and extracts and displays unapproved information. The site manager performs approval operation for unapproved inspection results. Furthermore, the inspection results are displayed together with the last inspection date and time, so the operating status of the machine can also be confirmed. Furthermore, the inspection results are displayed together with whether or not corrective action has been taken. The site management terminal 11 can display the contents of the corrective action by selecting an inspection result for which corrective action has been taken.

[0059] As described above, according to the above embodiment, the following effects can be obtained. (1) When the inspection master 34 is updated, the site information management unit 20 updates the inspection items in the inspection management information 36 other than the inspection items changed (added or edited) by the inspection manager. The site information management unit 20 also obtains machine identification information from the inspector terminal 13, and causes the inspector terminal 13 to display the inspection items of the specified machine. The inspection history management unit 21 also obtains the inspection results of the machine from the inspector terminal 13, causes the inspection results of the machine to be approved to be displayed on the site management terminal 11, and obtains the approval results from the site management terminal 11 to update the inspection history. This allows multiple personnel, including the site manager and inspectors, to efficiently perform work related to machine inspection.

[0060] (2) In the above embodiment, a two-dimensional code including machine identification information is attached to a machine at the site, and the inspector terminal 13 reads the two-dimensional code and transmits the machine identification information to the server 10. This allows an inspector to quickly start inspection even if he or she does not know the machine identification information on the inspection management system 1.

[0061] The above-described embodiment can be modified as follows: Each embodiment and the following modified examples can be combined with each other to the extent that there is no technical contradiction. In the above embodiment, the inspector or the inspection manager can add additional items to the inspection management information 36. Alternatively or in addition to this, the owner machine manager may be allowed to add additional items to the inspection management information 36. Alternatively, the server 10 may be provided with an inspection information storage unit 25 that allows registration by an inspection company and an inspection information storage unit 25 that allows registration by a machine management company separately. The owner machine manager inspects the owned machine by displaying an inspection screen 65 based on the inspection management information 36 of the machine management company on the machine management terminal 12. In this case, the inspection management information 36 stored in the inspection information storage unit 25 of the machine management company and the inspection management information 36 stored in the inspection information storage unit 25 of the inspection company may be merged. For example, the inspection management information 36 stored in the inspection information storage unit 25 of the inspection company may be updated using the inspection master 34 and the inspection management information 36 stored in the inspection information storage unit 25 of the machine management company. In this case, the inspection items and their main points other than the additional items added by the inspection manager or the inspector are updated.

[0062] In the above embodiment, the inspection management system 1 has a machinery management terminal 12, but this may be omitted, for example, when the inspection company is the same as the machinery management company, or when a contractor delivers the machinery to the site.

[0063] In the above embodiment, the approver terminal is the site management terminal 11. Instead of or in addition to this, the approver terminal may be the machine management terminal 12 or a terminal used by an inspection manager. In the above embodiment, the site information storage unit 22, the inspection master storage unit 23, the owned machine information storage unit 24, and the inspection information storage unit 25 are provided in the server 10, but they may be distributed to multiple servers 10. In addition, the site information management unit 20 and the inspection history management unit 21 may be distributed to different servers 10.

[0064] In the above embodiment, the server 10 or other terminals may collect detection results of sensors installed in the machines. The sensors are sensors for detecting the condition of the engine or oil, temperature sensors, etc. The server 10 records the sensor detection results collected from the machines together with the machine identification information.
