Abstract

A device maintenance apparatus includes a display configured to display an operator receivable of an operation for causing at least one maintenance item associated with a device of a maintenance target to be executed on the device and prompting information for prompting execution of the at least one maintenance item on the basis of execution information of the at least one maintenance item.

Claims

1. A device maintenance apparatus, comprising:

a display configured to display an operator receivable of an operation for causing at least one maintenance item associated with a device of a maintenance target to be executed on the device and prompting information for prompting execution of the at least one maintenance item on the basis of execution information of the at least one maintenance item.

2. The device maintenance apparatus according to claim 1, wherein

the display is configured to display information of an execution schedule of the at least one maintenance item on the basis of the execution information as the prompting information.

3. The device maintenance apparatus according to claim 1, wherein

the display is configured to display graphical display of the prompting information that changes over time on the basis of the execution information.

4. The device maintenance apparatus according to claim 1, wherein

the display is configured to further display a setting page for setting a display mode of the prompting information.

5. The device maintenance apparatus according to claim 1, wherein

the display is configured to display the number of elapsed days from a date on which the at least one maintenance item was executed in the past as the prompting information.

6. The device maintenance apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising:

a device information storage storing information of the device, and the at least one maintenance item and the prompting information which are associated with the information of the device.

7. The device maintenance apparatus according to claim 6, further comprising:

an acquirer configured to acquire the information of the device; and

a maintenance item determiner configured to determine the at least one maintenance item and the prompting information to be displayed on the display from the at least one maintenance item and the prompting information stored in the device information storage based on the acquired information of the device.

8. The device maintenance apparatus according to claim 1, wherein

the display is configured to display shaking display of the operator that changes over time on the basis of the execution information as the prompting information.

9. The device maintenance apparatus according to claim 1, wherein

the display is configured to display deterioration display of the operator that changes over time on the basis of the execution information as the prompting information.

10. A device maintenance method, comprising:

displaying an operator receivable of an operation for causing at least one maintenance item associated with a device of a maintenance target to be executed on the device and prompting information for prompting execution of the at least one maintenance item on the basis of execution information of the at least one maintenance item.

11. The device maintenance method according to claim 10, wherein

the display of the operator and the prompting information includes displaying information of an execution schedule of the at least one maintenance item on the basis of the execution information as the prompting information.

12. The device maintenance method according to claim 10, wherein

the display of the operator and the prompting information includes displaying graphical display of the prompting information that changes over time on the basis of the execution information.

13. The device maintenance method according to claim 10, further comprising:

displaying a setting page for setting a display mode of the prompting information.

14. The device maintenance method according to claim 10, wherein

the display of the operator and the prompting information includes displaying the number of elapsed days from a date on which the at least one maintenance item was executed in the past as the prompting information.

15. The device maintenance method according to claim 10, further comprising:

storing information of the device, and the at least one maintenance item and the prompting information which are associated with the information of the device.

16. The device maintenance method according to claim 15, further comprising:

acquiring the information of the device; and

determining the at least one maintenance item and the prompting information to be displayed from the at least one maintenance item and the prompting information stored in the device information storage based on the acquired information of the device.

17. The device maintenance method according to claim 10, wherein

the display of the operator and the prompting information includes displaying shaking display of the operator that changes over time on the basis of the execution information as the prompting information.

18. The device maintenance method according to claim 10, wherein

the display of the operator and the prompting information includes displaying deterioration display of the operator that changes over time on the basis of the execution information as the prompting information.

19. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a device maintenance program, which when executed by a computer, causes the computer to:

display an operator receivable of an operation for causing at least one maintenance item associated with a device of a maintenance target to be executed on the device and prompting information for prompting execution of the at least one maintenance item on the basis of execution information of the at least one maintenance item.

20. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing the device maintenance program according to claim 19, wherein

the display of the operator and the prompting information includes displaying information of an execution schedule of the at least one maintenance item on the basis of the execution information as the prompting information.
