Abstract

A construction machine includes a lower traveling body; and a control apparatus configured to determine a traveling vibration of the construction machine at each predetermined timing.

Claims (32)

1. A construction machine comprising:

a lower traveling body;

an upper turning body turnably mounted on the lower traveling body; and

a control apparatus configured to determine a traveling vibration of the construction machine at each predetermined timing, wherein

the control apparatus is further configured to

classify a magnitude of the traveling vibration into one of a plurality of levels,

count a determination count indicating frequency of the traveling vibration of the construction machine with respect to each one of the plurality of levels, and

calculate the magnitude of the traveling vibration based on an output from a sensor attached to the upper turning body.

2. The construction machine according to claim 1 , wherein the control apparatus is configured to calculate work environment information with respect to each one of the plurality of levels.

3. The construction machine according to claim 1 , wherein the control apparatus is configured to calculate work information with respect to each one of the plurality of levels.

4. The construction machine according to claim 1 , wherein the control apparatus is configured to determine the traveling vibration of the construction machine at each timing when a cumulative time of a traveling state of the construction machine that continues or intermittently continues reaches a predetermined set time.

5. The construction machine according to claim 1 , wherein

the control apparatus is further configured to

determine a vibration of the construction machine during a stopped state of the construction machine for a first set time,

determine a vibration of the construction machine during working of the construction machine for a second set time, and

determine the traveling vibration of the construction machine during traveling of the construction machine for a third set time.

6. A display apparatus of a construction machine, wherein the display apparatus is configured to display a determination count indicating frequency of a traveling vibration of the construction machine including a lower traveling body and an upper turning body turnably mounted on the lower traveling body, the determination count being counted with respect to each one of a plurality of levels, the traveling vibration being determined at each predetermined timing and classified into each one of the plurality of levels, and a magnitude of the traveling vibration being calculated based on an output from a sensor attached to the upper turning body.

7. The display apparatus of the construction machine according to claim 6 , wherein the display apparatus is configured to display work environment information or work information relating to the traveling vibration of the construction machine including the lower traveling body, the work environment information or the work information being calculated with respect to each one of the plurality of levels, the traveling vibration being determined at each predetermined timing and classified into each one of the plurality of levels.

8. A management apparatus of a construction machine, wherein the management apparatus is configured to

classify a traveling vibration of the construction machine including a lower traveling body and an upper turning body turnably mounted on the lower traveling body, into one of a plurality of levels, the traveling vibration being determined at each predetermined timing,

store and manage a determination count indicating frequency of the traveling vibration, the determination count being counted with respect to each one of the plurality of levels, and

calculate a magnitude of the traveling vibration based on an output from a sensor attached to the upper turning body.

9. The management apparatus of the construction machine according to claim 8 , wherein the management apparatus is configured to

classify the traveling vibration of the construction machine including the lower traveling body, into one of the plurality of levels, the traveling vibration being determined at each predetermined timing, and

store and manage work environment information or work information that is calculated with respect to each one of the plurality of levels.

10. A construction machine comprising:

a lower traveling body;

an upper turning body turnably mounted on the lower traveling body; and

a control apparatus configured to determine, at each predetermined timing, a vibration in association with a traveling operation of the construction machine, during the traveling operation of the construction machine, wherein

the control apparatus is further configured to

classify a magnitude of the traveling vibration into one of a plurality of levels, and count a determination count indicating frequency of the traveling vibration with respect to each one of the plurality of levels, and

calculate the magnitude of the traveling vibration based on an output from a sensor attached to the upper turning body.
