Method and system for managing construction machine, and arithmetic processing apparatus
First Claim
1. A method for managing a construction machine, comprising the steps of statistically processing an actual repair/replacement time interval for each of parts of a plurality of construction machines (1, 1a, 1b, 1c), comparing the statistically processed data with operation information of a particular construction machine, and deciding a scheduled repair/replacement timing of a corresponding part of the particular construction machine.

Abstract
A working time for each of an engine 32, a front 15, a swing body 13, and a travel body 12 of a hydraulic excavator 1 working in fields is measured. Measured data is stored in a memory of a controller 2 and then transferred to a base station computer 3 via satellite communication, an FD, etc. to be stored in a database 100. At each repair/replacement of a part in each hydraulic excavator, the base station computer 3 calculates, based on the operation data, a replacement time interval of the part on the basis of the working time per section to which the part belongs, and then stores and accumulates it. The base station computer also reads the stored data for each hydraulic excavator, determines, for each part, a replacement rate of the part having the substantially equal replacement time interval, and calculates a target replacement time interval of the part in accordance with the replacement time interval corresponding to a maximum replacement rate. Thus, the appropriate target replacement time interval can be decided and the appropriate scheduled replacement timing can be determined even for parts belong to a plurality of sections that differ in working time from each other.
