Condition monitoring device for monitoring the condition of a mechanical machine component

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a condition monitoring device for monitoring a condition of a mechanical machine component. The condition monitoring device may include a vibration sensor configured to detect mechanical vibrations on the mechanical machine component; a controller coupled to the vibration sensor and configured to determine a condition of the mechanical machine component based at least in part on measurement data. generated by the vibration sensor; and a wired communication interface coupled to the controller and configured to communicate with an external control device, wherein, based at least in part on a request to provide information about the condition of the mechanical machine component, the controller is configured to transmit the requested information via the wired communication interface.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
