[0009] The present disclosure will be described in detail below. 1. On-site spray type foaming machine The on-site spray type foaming machine 10 of this embodiment is a device that sprays a liquid onto an adherend to form a foam layer on the adherend. The foam layer is, for example, a urethane foam layer. As shown in FIG. 1, the on-site spray type foaming machine 10 is configured to be transportable by a vehicle V. The on-site spray type foaming machine 10 is mounted on the loading platform L of the vehicle V.

[0010] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the on-site spray type foaming machine 10 includes a spray unit 11, a pair of raw material containers 12, a compressor 13, a hose 14, and a generator 15.

[0011] The raw material containers 12 are, for example, drums. The pair of raw material containers 12 each individually accommodate, for example, two different types of raw materials (referred to as raw materials A and B). One raw material container 12 accommodates, for example, a polyol. The other raw material container 12 accommodates, for example, an isocyanate.

[0012] Compressor 13 supplies compressed air to an air pump (not shown) used to supply raw materials from raw material container 12 to pump 21 (described later), thereby operating the pump. Compressor 13 also supplies compressed air to a head (a portion for mixing raw materials A and B) of spray gun 22 (described later), thereby operating the pump.

[0013] The hose 14 is flexible and has a length of, for example, several tens of meters. The hose 14 has a first hose section that supplies the raw material from the raw material container 12 to the pump 21, and a second hose section that supplies the raw material from the pump 21 to the spray gun 22. The first hose section is a hose section that does not heat the raw material, and connects an air pump (not shown) to the pump 21. The length of the first hose section is, for example, several meters. The second hose section is a hose section with a heater that transports the raw material, which has been heated to a set temperature by a heat exchanger with a built-in electric heater immediately after being sent out from the pump 21, to the spray gun 22 without allowing the temperature to drop. The length of the second hose section is approximately several tens of meters.

[0014] The generator 15 is a device that supplies power to the spray unit 11, the compressor 13, and the like.

[0015] As shown in FIG. 3, the spray unit 11 includes a pump 21, a spray gun 22, a control device 23, and a remote monitoring device 24.

[0016] The pump 21 transports the raw material supplied from the raw material container 12. The pump 21 is configured as, for example, a hydraulic piston pump. As shown in Fig. 5, the pump 21 includes a hydraulic cylinder 31, pumping cylinders 32 and 33, pistons 34 to 36, and a shaft 37. The pistons 34 to 36 correspond to an example of a "movable part" in the present disclosure.

[0017] The hydraulic cylinder 31 is provided between the pressure-feeding cylinders 32 and 33. A partition wall 32A is provided between the hydraulic cylinder 31 and the pressure-feeding cylinder 32. A partition wall 33A is provided between the hydraulic cylinder 31 and the pressure-feeding cylinder 33. The shaft 37 passes through the partition walls 32A, 33A and is disposed inside each of the cylinders 31 to 34 so as to be axially movable.

[0018] A piston 34 is provided at the axial center of the shaft 37. The hydraulic cylinder 31 accommodates the piston 34 so that it can move back and forth. Hydraulic pipes 31A and 31B are provided at both axial ends of the hydraulic cylinder 31 to which hydraulic pressure is supplied from a hydraulic unit (a device equipped with a hydraulic motor and the like, not shown). The piston 34 moves back and forth as hydraulic pressure is alternately supplied to both axial ends of the hydraulic cylinder 31 via the hydraulic pipes 31A and 31B.

[0019] A piston 35 is provided at one axial end of the shaft 37. The pumping cylinder 32 accommodates the piston 35 so that it can reciprocate. The other axial end of the shaft 37 is provided with the piston 35. The pumping cylinder 33 accommodates the piston 36 so that it can reciprocate. The pistons 35, 36 are integral with the piston 34 via the shaft 37, and therefore reciprocate in association with the reciprocating movement of the piston 34.

[0020] The pressure-feeding cylinder 32 is connected to a suction line 32B connected to one of the raw material containers 12. The suction line 32B is provided with a check valve that allows flow from one of the raw material containers 12 to the pressure-feeding cylinder 32 and prevents flow in the opposite direction. The pressure-feeding cylinder 32 is connected to a pressure-feeding line 32C leading to the spray gun 22. The pressure-feeding line 32C is provided with a check valve that allows flow from the pressure-feeding cylinder 32 to the spray gun 22 and prevents flow in the opposite direction. The suction line 32B and the pressure-feeding line 32C are connected to the pressure-feeding cylinder 32 via a common line. The suction line 32B and the pressure-feeding line 32C are formed of, for example, a part of the hose 14. A bypass 32D is provided between the middle of the pressure-feeding line 32C and the other axial end (the end on the hydraulic cylinder 31 side) of the pressure-feeding cylinder 32.

[0021] The pressure-feeding cylinder 33 is connected to a suction line 33B connected to the other raw material container 12. The suction line 33B is provided with a check valve that allows flow from the other raw material container 12 to the pressure-feeding cylinder 33 and prevents flow in the opposite direction. The pressure-feeding cylinder 33 is connected to a pressure-feeding line 33C leading to the spray gun 22. The pressure-feeding line 33C is provided with a check valve that allows flow from the pressure-feeding cylinder 33 to the spray gun 22 and prevents flow in the opposite direction. The suction line 33B and the pressure-feeding line 33C are connected to the pressure-feeding cylinder 33 via a common line. The suction line 33B and the pressure-feeding line 33C are formed of, for example, a part of the hose 14. A bypass 33D is provided between the middle of the pressure-feeding line 33C and one axial end of the pressure-feeding cylinder 33 (the end on the hydraulic cylinder 31 side).

[0022] The pump 21 reciprocates the shaft 37 by supplying hydraulic pressure from a hydraulic unit (not shown), thereby reciprocating the pistons 35, 36 in the pressure-feeding cylinders 32, 33. As a result, the pump 21 sucks the raw materials A, B from the raw material containers 12 into the pressure-feeding cylinders 32, 33 and discharges the raw materials A, B from the pressure-feeding cylinders 32, 33, thereby continuously pressure-feeding the raw materials A, B to the pressure-feeding lines 32C, 33C.

[0023] For example, the configuration (volume, etc.) of the pump 21 on the pressure-feeding cylinder 32 side is made the same as the configuration (volume, etc.) of the pressure-feeding cylinder 32 side, and further the viscosities of the raw materials (raw materials A and B) are made the same. This makes it possible to make the supply amounts of the raw materials from the pump 21 to the spray gun 22 the same by a predetermined number of reciprocating motions of the pistons 34-36.

[0024] The pump 21 is provided with a pair of detection sensors 38 that detect the position of the piston 34. The detection sensors 38 are configured as proximity sensors capable of detecting magnetism, for example. One of the detection sensors 38 is provided at one axial end of the outer surface of the hydraulic cylinder 31. The other detection sensor 38 is provided at the other axial end of the outer surface of the hydraulic cylinder 31. The piston 34 is provided with a magnet 34A that can be detected by the detection sensor 38. The magnet 34A is provided in an annular shape along the outer circumferential surface of the piston 34, for example.

[0025] In the pump 21, the direction of supply of hydraulic pressure to the hydraulic cylinder 31 by the hydraulic unit is reversed every time the detection sensor 38 detects the magnet 34A. For example, as shown in FIG. 6, when the piston 34 moves to one axial end of the hydraulic cylinder 31, the magnet 34A is detected by one of the detection sensors 38. This reverses the direction of supply of hydraulic pressure to the hydraulic cylinder 31, and the piston 34 moves to the other axial end of the hydraulic cylinder 31, as shown in FIG. 7. Then, when the magnet 34A is detected by the other detection sensor 38, the direction of supply of hydraulic pressure to the hydraulic cylinder 31 is further reversed. In this manner, the piston 34 reciprocates within the hydraulic cylinder 31.

[0026] The spray gun 22 sprays the liquid containing the raw materials transported from the pump 21 onto the adherend. The spray gun 22 is a handheld gun that mixes, stirs, and sprays the raw materials. The spray gun 22 is provided at the downstream end of the pressure feed lines 32C and 33C.

[0027] The control device 23 is a device that controls the operation of the pump 21, etc. The control device 23 includes, for example, an MPU (Micro Processor Unit), a memory, an input / output port, etc. The control device 23 can, for example, control the start and stop of the pump 21. For example, the control device 23 obtains detection results from a pair of detection sensors 38, and performs control to switch the supply direction of hydraulic pressure in the hydraulic cylinder 31 by the hydraulic unit.

[0028] The control device 23 has a pair of relay switches 23A. One relay switch 23A receives a detection signal (a signal output by detection of the magnet 34A) from one detection sensor 38. The other relay switch 23A receives a detection signal (a signal output by detection of the magnet 34A) from the other detection sensor 38. When one relay switch 23A receives a detection signal from the detection sensor 38, it outputs the following three signals. The first signal is a signal that reverses the supply direction of hydraulic pressure in the hydraulic cylinder 31 by the hydraulic unit. The second signal is a signal that stops the signal output by the other relay switch 23A. The third signal is a signal (count signal) that is output to the remote monitoring device 24 described later. The count signal is, for example, an analog signal. When the other relay switch 23A receives a detection signal from the other detection sensor 38, it also outputs a similar signal.

[0029] The remote monitoring device 24 is an information processing device capable of communicating with the control device 23. As shown in Fig. 4, the remote monitoring device 24 has a control unit 41, a storage unit 42, a communication unit 43, a display unit 44, and an operation unit 45. The remote monitoring device 24 is configured to receive power from, for example, the control device 23.

[0030] The control unit 41 controls the entire remote monitoring device 24. The control unit 41 includes, for example, an MPU (Micro Processor Unit). The control unit 41 performs control based on, for example, a program stored in the storage unit .

[0031] The storage unit 42 is configured as a non-volatile memory (such as a rewritable ROM). The storage unit 42 stores a program to be executed by the control unit 41 (a program that causes the control unit 41 to perform control in a manner as shown in FIG. 8, which will be described later).

[0032] The control unit 41 and the storage unit 42 correspond to an example of the "acquisition unit" and "data acquisition means" of the present disclosure, and count the number of operations of the pistons 34-36 of the pump 21, and acquire the counted operation information. Here, the number of operations of the pistons 34-36 is, for example, the number of reciprocating operations of the pistons 34-36. Specifically, the control unit 41 counts the number of operations of the pistons 34-36 by one when receiving a count signal output from one of the relay switches 23A. Then, the control unit 41 stores the count value (accumulated value) of the number of operations as operation information in the storage unit 42. The operation information is information indicating the count value, and may be, for example, a number of the count value itself, or a symbol or character string corresponding to the count value. The operation information is, for example, an accumulated value of the number of operations of the pistons 34-36 in a predetermined period (for example, one week, one month, calendar month, etc.).

[0033] The control unit 41 has a function of acquiring the date and time. The control unit 41 measures time using, for example, a built-in clock. The control unit 41 may connect to a public or private NTP (Network Time Protocol) server via a communication network to synchronize the time.

[0034] The communication unit 43 is configured as a communication module (antenna, etc.) that can access a communication network (Internet communication network, etc.). The communication unit 43 is configured to be capable of wireless communication with the management device 101, which will be described later, via the communication network. For example, the communication unit 43 transmits and receives emails to and from the management device 101, which will be described later, via a server that functions as an email service center, etc.

[0035] The communication unit 43 corresponds to an example of a "transmission unit" or "data transmission means" in the present disclosure, and transmits to a transmission destination data including the operation information acquired by the control unit 41 and the storage unit 42. The data including the operation information includes the operation information and information indicating a predetermined period during which the number of operations is accumulated.

[0036] The display unit 44 is configured as an image display device such as a liquid crystal display, a touch panel, etc. The operation unit 45 is configured to allow the foaming machine user to input information by operating the foaming machine user. The operation unit 45 is an input interface such as a push button, a touch panel, etc.

[0037] 2. Data Processing System The data processing system 100 of this embodiment is shown in Figures 3 and 4. The data processing system 100 is a system that transmits data related to the on-site spray type foaming machine 10 to a system administrator or a foaming machine user.

[0038] As shown in Fig. 3, the data processing system 100 includes an on-site spray type foaming machine 10 and a management device 101. The on-site spray type foaming machine 10 and the management device 101 can transmit data bidirectionally. For example, the on-site spray type foaming machine 10 and the management device 101 can communicate bidirectionally via a communication network.

[0039] The management device 101 is an information processing device operated by a system administrator who manages the data processing system 100. The management device 101 is, for example, a personal computer, a smartphone, a tablet terminal, or the like.

[0040] The management device 101 has a control unit 111, a storage unit 112, a communication unit 113, a display unit 114, and an operation unit 115. The control unit 111 includes, for example, an MPU (Micro Processor Unit). The control unit 111 performs control based on, for example, a program stored in the storage unit 112. The control unit 111 corresponds to an example of a "data analysis means" and analyzes data transmitted by the on-site spray type foaming machine 10.

[0041] The storage unit 112 is configured by, for example, a known semiconductor memory, etc. The storage unit 112 stores a program executed by the control unit 111 (a program that causes the control unit 111 to perform control in a flow such as that shown in FIG. 9, which will be described later) and the like.

[0042] The communication unit 113 is configured as a communication interface (such as a communication cable) that can access a communication network (such as the Internet communication network). The communication unit 113 is configured to be able to communicate with the remote monitoring device 24 via the communication network. For example, the communication unit 113 transmits and receives emails to and from the remote monitoring device 24 via a server or the like that functions as an email service center. The communication unit 113 corresponds to an example of a "data receiving means" and receives data transmitted from the on-site spray type foaming machine 10. The communication unit 113 corresponds to an example of a "result transmitting means" and transmits the analysis results of the data in the control unit 111 to a second destination (the remote monitoring device 24).

[0043] The display unit 114 is configured as an image display device such as a liquid crystal display, a touch panel, etc. The operation unit 115 is configured to allow a system administrator to input information through operations. The operation unit 115 is an input interface such as a keyboard, a touch panel, etc.

[0044] 3. Data processing control of data processing systems The data processing control of the data processing system 100 will be described with reference to the flowcharts shown in Figures 8 and 9. The data processing control of the data processing system 100 includes data transmission control by the on-site spray type foaming machine 10 (specifically, the remote monitoring device 24) and data transmission control by the management device 101.

[0045] 3-1. Data transmission control for on-site spray type foaming machine The flowchart shown in Fig. 8 is a flowchart showing the flow of data transmission control executed by the control unit 41 of the remote monitoring device 24 in the on-site spray type foaming machine 10. An example of the "program to be executed by a computer" of the present disclosure is a program that causes the control unit 41 to perform control according to the flow shown in Fig. 8.

[0046] The control unit 41 starts the control of Fig. 8 when a predetermined start condition is satisfied. The satisfaction of the predetermined start condition is, for example, when the power of the on-site spray type foaming machine 10 (more specifically, the pump 21) is switched from an off state to an on state, when an operation for starting the program is performed, etc.

[0047] First, the control unit 41 starts counting the number of movements of the pistons 34 to 36 (step S1). That is, the control unit 41 counts the number of movements of the pistons 34 to 36 based on a count signal received from one of the relay switches 23A.

[0048] Next, the control unit 41 determines whether or not a predetermined period has elapsed (step S2). The predetermined period is, for example, one calendar month (September 1 to September 30). If the control unit 41 determines that the predetermined period has not elapsed, the process proceeds to No in step S2, and the control unit 41 continues to count the number of operations of the pistons 34 to 36 until it determines that the predetermined period has elapsed.

[0049] If the control unit 41 determines that the predetermined period has elapsed, it proceeds to Yes in step S2 and transmits data including the operation information to the first destination (management device 101) (step S3). Specifically, the control unit 41 transmits the data including the operation information to the management device 101 via the communication network. For example, an email containing a "year and month" and a "number" in the body of the email is transmitted to the management device 101. The "year and month" is a string of numbers and letters indicating the above-mentioned predetermined period. The "number" is a number indicating the count value (accumulated value) counted during the predetermined period.

[0050] Next, the control unit 41 erases the operation information (the cumulative value of the number of operations counted) stored in the storage unit 42 (step S4). After step S4, the control unit 41 performs step S1 again. As a result, information including the cumulative value of the number of operations counted every predetermined period (month) is transmitted to the management device 101. The control in FIG. 8 ends, for example, when a predetermined end condition is met. The predetermined end condition is, for example, that the power supply of the on-site spray type foaming machine 10 (more specifically, the pump 21) is switched from an on state to an off state, that a predetermined date and time has arrived, etc.

[0051] 3-2. Data transmission control of management device 9 is a flowchart showing the flow of data transmission control executed by the control unit 111 of the management device 101. An example of the "program to be executed by a computer" of the present disclosure is a program that causes the control unit 111 to perform control according to the flow shown in FIG.

[0052] When a predetermined start condition is satisfied, the control unit 111 starts the control of Fig. 9. The satisfaction of the predetermined start condition is, for example, when the power of the management device 101 is switched from an off state to an on state, when an operation for starting a program is performed, etc.

[0053] The control unit 111 first receives data including operation information transmitted from the site spray type foaming machine 10 in the above step S3 via the communication unit 113 (step S11). For example, the control unit 111 receives the above email (including "year / month" and "number") transmitted from the site spray type foaming machine 10 in the above step S3 via the communication unit 113. The management device 101 can output the data received in step S11. For example, the management device 101 makes the above email viewable. This allows the system administrator operating the management device 101 to grasp data related to the site spray type foaming machine 10 (such as operation information of pistons 34-36).

[0054] Next, the control unit 111 analyzes the data received in step S11 (step S12). For example, the control unit 111 calculates the usage amount of each raw material from the count value (integral value) of the number of operations specified by the operation information. The usage amount of each raw material can be calculated based on the amount of each raw material sprayed from the spray gun 22 with one reciprocating motion of the pistons 34-36 (the supply amount of raw material supplied from the raw material container 12 to the spray gun 22). For example, the usage amount of each raw material can be calculated by multiplying the amount of each raw material sprayed from the spray gun 22 with one reciprocating motion of the pistons 34-36 by the count value (integral value).

[0055] The control unit 111 may also calculate the stock amount of each ingredient from the calculated usage amount of each ingredient. The stock amount of each ingredient can be calculated by subtracting the usage amount of the ingredient from the initial amount of the ingredient contained in the ingredient container 12 (before the number of movements of the pistons 34-36 is counted).

[0056] The control unit 111 may also derive the timing for maintenance of the on-site spray type foaming machine 10 (e.g., the pump 21) from the count value (integrated value) of the number of operations. For example, when the count value (integrated value) of the number of operations exceeds a predetermined threshold, it may derive that it is time to replace parts constituting the pump 21 (e.g., sealing parts of the pistons 34 to 36, etc.).

[0057] Next, the control unit 111 transmits the analysis result analyzed in step S12 to the second transmission destination (the remote monitoring device 24) (step S13). For example, when the control unit 41 of the remote monitoring device 24 receives the analysis result, the control unit 41 can output the analysis result by displaying it on the display unit 44. This allows the user of the site spray type foaming machine 10 to understand the above analysis result of the data related to the site spray type foaming machine 10.

[0058] After step S13, the control unit 41 performs step S11 again. This makes it possible to output the analysis result of the integrated value of the number of operations counted every predetermined period. The control in FIG. 9 ends, for example, when a predetermined end condition is met. The predetermined end condition is, for example, that the power supply of the management device 101 is switched from an on state to an off state, that an operation for stopping the program is performed, etc.

[0059] 4. Effects of this embodiment The on-site spray type foaming machine 10 of this embodiment is equipped with a control unit 41 (acquisition unit) that counts the number of operations of the pistons 34-36 (moving parts) of the pump 21 and acquires the counted operation information, and a communication unit 43 (transmission unit) that transmits data including the operation information acquired by the control unit 41 to a management device 101 (transmission destination). With this configuration, the on-site spray type foaming machine 10 can count the number of operations of the pistons 34-36 of the pump 21 by the control unit 41. Then, the communication unit 43 can transmit data including operation information to the management device 101. This allows the management device 101 to grasp the number of operations of the pistons 34-36.

[0060] The on-site spray type foaming machine 10 of this embodiment includes a storage unit 42 configured as a non-volatile memory for storing the number of operations. With this configuration, even if power is not supplied to the on-site spray type foaming machine 10 due to a power loss or the like, the memory unit 42 can maintain the memory of the number of operations that have already been counted.

[0061] The data processing system 100 of this embodiment includes a control unit 41 (data acquisition means) and a memory unit 42 (data acquisition means) that acquire data of the on-site spray type foaming machine 10, a communication unit 43 (data transmission means) that transmits the data, a communication unit 113 (data receiving means) that receives the data, a control unit 111 (data analysis means) that analyzes the data, and a communication unit 113 (result transmission means) that transmits the analysis results in the control unit 111 (data analysis means). With this configuration, the data of the on-site spray type foaming machine 10 acquired by the control unit 41 can be transmitted to the transmission destination by the communication unit 43. This allows the transmission destination to grasp the data of the on-site spray type foaming machine 10. Furthermore, the analysis results of the data of the on-site spray type foaming machine 10 received and analyzed by the control unit 111 can be transmitted to the transmission destination by the communication unit 113. This allows the transmission destination to grasp the analysis results of the data of the on-site spray type foaming machine 10.

With this configuration, the number of operations of the pistons 34 to 36 (moving parts) of the pump 21 can be grasped at the transmission destination.

[0063] The program of this embodiment is a program for causing a remote monitoring device 24 (computer) to execute a step (step S1) of acquiring data on the number of operations of the pistons 34-36 (moving parts) of the pump 21 in the on-site spray type foaming machine 10, and a step (step S3) of transmitting the data to a management device 101 (first transmission destination). With this configuration, the remote monitoring device 24 can perform control to transmit data on the number of times the pistons 34 to 36 (moving parts) of the pump 21 operate to the management device 101.

[0064] The program of this embodiment is a program for causing the management device 101 (computer) to execute a step (step S11) of receiving data on the number of operations of the pistons 34-36 (moving parts) of the pump 21 in the on-site spray type foaming machine 10, and a step (step S12) of analyzing the data. With this configuration, the management device 101 can analyze data on the number of operations of the pistons 34 to 36 (moving parts) of the pump 21.

[0065] The program of this embodiment further includes a step (step S13) of transmitting the result of the data analyzing step (step S12) to the remote monitoring device 24 (second transmission destination). With this configuration, the management device 101 can perform control to transmit the analysis results of the data on the number of operations of the pistons 34 to 36 (moving parts) of the pump 21 to the remote monitoring device 24.

[0066] [Other embodiments] The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above and shown in the drawings, but is indicated by the claims. The present invention includes the equivalent meaning of the claims and all modifications within the scope of the claims, and is intended to include the following embodiments.

[0067] In the above embodiment, the remote monitoring device 24 has exemplified data including operation information (information counting the number of operations of the pistons 34-36) as data related to the on-site spray type foaming machine 10, but other types of data may be used. For example, the data related to the on-site spray type foaming machine 10 may be data related to spraying conditions such as the temperature of the raw material transported from the raw material container 12 to the spray gun 22, the discharge amount or discharge pressure of the raw material by the pump 21, and the flow rate of the raw material transported by the pump 21. In addition, these data may be instantaneous values ​​at a predetermined date and time, or may be average values ​​within a predetermined period. In addition, the amount or rate of increase, or the amount or rate of decrease of these data after a predetermined time has elapsed may be used. By transmitting the above data to the destination (such as the management device 101), the destination can grasp the change in the operating condition of the on-site spray type foaming machine 10 due to environmental factors. In addition, by collecting and analyzing the above data when a malfunction occurs in the on-site spray type foaming machine 10, the destination can identify the cause of the malfunction. Then, this information (change in the operating condition of the on-site spray type foaming machine 10, malfunction cause) can be accumulated and used on the destination management device 101 side.

[0068] In the above embodiment, the remote monitoring device 24 (communication unit 43) and the management device 101 (communication unit 113) are configured to transmit and receive data by wireless communication via a communication network, but data may be transmitted by other transmission methods. For example, data may be transmitted and received by wired communication. Alternatively, one device may output data by recording it on a recording medium (a recording paper on which a two-dimensional code such as a barcode or QR code (registered trademark) is recorded, a memory card, a wireless tag, etc.), and the other device may read the data recorded on the recording medium. Alternatively, the operator of one device may transmit the data to the operator of the other device by telephone or orally, and the operator of the other device may input the data into the other device.

[0069] In the above embodiment, the computer including the "data acquisition means" and the "data transmission means" of the present disclosure may be an information processing terminal such as a smartphone, a mobile phone, or a tablet terminal. The program stored in the storage unit of such an information processing terminal may be an application program installed via a communication network or the like. For example, in a configuration in which a count value of the number of operations of the pistons 34 to 36 is displayed in the pump 21 or the like, this application program may cause the information processing terminal to capture the count value as an image (photograph) and transmit it to the management device 101. The application program may then cause the information processing terminal to receive the analysis result of the data by the management device 101 and then display it.

[0070] In the above embodiment, the remote monitoring device 24 is configured to transmit data every time a predetermined period of time elapses, but it may be configured to transmit data when the number of movements of the pistons 34 to 36 exceeds a predetermined threshold value.

[0071] In the above embodiment, the pistons 34 to 36 are exemplified as the movable parts of the pump 21, but the movable parts may be the shaft 37 or other components of the pump 21.

[0072] In the above embodiment, a hydraulic piston pump has been shown as an example of the pump of the present disclosure, but other types of pumps may be used. For example, the pump of the present disclosure may be a plunger pump, a gear pump, etc. In the case of a plunger pump, for example, the plunger corresponds to the "moving part" of the present disclosure. In the case of a gear pump, for example, the gear corresponds to the "moving part" of the present disclosure.

[0073] In the above embodiment, the remote monitoring device 24 was configured to count the number of operations of the pistons 34-36 using a count signal output from one of the relay switches 23A, but it may also be configured to count the number of operations using count signals output from both relay switches 23A.
