Elevator Maintenance System Predictive Information Routing
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional elevator systems transmit unnecessary countermeasure information to all stakeholders, including proprietors who only need to be informed of elevator abnormalities, leading to information overload and delayed response to predicted issues.
Innovation Solution
An elevator preventive maintenance system that distinguishes between stakeholders needing countermeasure information and those who do not, transmitting only necessary information to the appropriate parties, including a storage section for abnormality prediction, countermeasure information, and concerned person details to determine information needs.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If countermeasure information is transmitted to all concerned persons, then complete information coverage is achieved, but information overload occurs for persons who do not need countermeasure information
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by differentiating information transmission based on the specific needs of each concerned person. The system stores individual preference information and transmits different types of information (only abnormality prediction vs. abnormality prediction plus countermeasure information) to different persons, ensuring each receives information tailored to their role and requirements.
2Loss of information
If countermeasure information is transmitted to all concerned persons, then complete information coverage is achieved, but the amount of transmitted information increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts and separates countermeasure information from abnormality prediction information. The system identifies which concerned persons need countermeasure information and transmits only the necessary portion to each individual, rather than transmitting all information to everyone. This extraction principle reduces overall information volume while maintaining complete coverage for those who need it.
3Loss of information
If countermeasure information is transmitted to all concerned persons, then complete information coverage is achieved, but response time is delayed for persons who do not need countermeasure information
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts countermeasure information from the general information transmission stream and delivers it only to concerned persons who need it. This allows persons who only need abnormality prediction information to receive and process their information faster, while still ensuring complete information coverage for those who require countermeasure details.

AI summary
An elevator preventive maintenance system capable of helping, when an abnormality of an elevator is predicted to occur, a concerned person needing no countermeasure information to grasp information quickly and easily, and helping a concerned person needing countermeasure information to react to the abnormality quickly and precisely. The system includes: a prediction section configured to predict an abnormality of an elevator to occur, based on abnormality prediction information; a storage section configured to pre-store concerned person information relating to the elevator; a communication section configured to transmit abnormality occurrence prediction information to concerned person in the case the abnormality is predicted to occur.
