Abstract

A monitoring system of a working machine including a first wireless communicator arranged at and/or around a storage area of the working machine, a second wireless communicator arranged on the working machine and configured to communicate with the first wireless communicator in wireless, and a monitor to watch the working machine having the second wireless communicator when a signal intensity of radio wave received from the second wireless communicator by the first wireless communicator is equal to or more than a threshold intensity.

Claims (29)

1. A monitoring system of a working machine comprising:

a first wireless communicator including an internal wireless communicator arranged inside a storage area of the working machine and an external wireless communicator arranged outside the storage area;

a second wireless communicator arranged on the working machine and configured to communicate with the internal wireless communicator and the external wireless communicator of the first wireless communicator; and

wherein the external wireless communicator receives radio wave of a first signal intensity from the second wireless communicator, and the internal wireless communicator receives the radio wave of a second signal intensity from the second wireless communicator, and

wherein the internal wireless communicator includes a monitor configured to start monitoring the working machine when the first signal intensity is equal to or more than a first threshold intensity and the second signal intensity is equal to or more than a second threshold intensity, and the monitor being configured to output a warning outside when a state of the working machine changes after the monitor starts monitoring the working machine.

2. The monitoring system according to claim 1 , wherein

after the second signal intensity is kept equal to or more than the second threshold intensity for a predetermined time, the monitor is configured to start monitoring the working machine.

3. The monitoring system according to claim 1 , wherein

the second wireless communicator transmits the radio wave containing a SSID (Service Set ID) indicating a status of the working machine, to the first wireless communicator.

4. The monitoring system according to claim 3 , wherein

when the SSID indicates that the working machine is deactivated after the working machine stops in the storage area, the monitor is configured to start monitoring the working machine.

5. The monitoring system according to claim 4 , wherein

when the SSID indicates that the working machine is activated while the working machine is monitored, the monitor is configured to output a warning outside.

6. A monitoring system of a working machine comprising:

a first wireless communicator arranged at and/or around a storage area of the working machine;

a second wireless communicator arranged on the working machine and configured to transmit a radio wave containing a SSID (Service Set ID) indicating a status of the working machine, to the first wireless communicator;

wherein the first wireless communicator receives the radio wave of a signal intensity from the second wireless communicator,

wherein the first wireless communicator includes a monitor configured to start monitoring the working machine when the signal intensity is equal to or more than a threshold intensity and the SSID indicates that the working machine is deactivated after the working machine stops in the storage area, and

wherein the monitor is configured to output a warning outside when the SSID indicates that the working machine is activated while the working machine is monitored.

7. The monitoring system according to claim 6 , wherein

the monitor is configured to start monitoring the working machine, after the signal intensity is kept equal to or more than the threshold intensity for a predetermined time.

8. The monitoring system according to claim 6 , wherein

the monitor is configured to start monitoring the working machine, when the SSID indicates that an ignition switch of the working machine is turned on.

9. The monitoring system according to claim 6 , wherein

the monitor is configured to start monitoring the working machine, when the SSID indicates that an engine of the working machine is not driving.

10. The monitoring system according to claim 6 , wherein the monitor is configured to output the warning outside when the SSID indicates that an engine of the working machine has started while the working machine is monitored.

11. The monitoring system according to claim 6 , wherein the monitor is configured to output the warning outside when the SSID indicates that the working machine has moved while the working machine is monitored.

12. The monitoring system according to claim 6 , wherein

the second wireless communicator is configured to transmit the radio wave at regular intervals while the working machine is monitored.
