Abstract
The present invention provides a display device displaying power consumption of a machine, which can display power consumption of each power consuming element of the machine and power consumption per cycle of manufacture of products. The display device displays average power consumption of each of power consuming elements M1, M3, M4, M2, M6 and M5 and the total sum of the average power consumption graphically in the manner of displaying the average power consumption of the power consuming elements M1, M3, M4, M2, M6 and M5 in piles every predetermined time period. The power consumption display device also displays power consumption Whc per cycle of manufacture of products or the like through repetitive operation.
Claims10
A power consumption display device for a machine which includes power consuming elements concerned with drive or control and carries out a same operation repeatedly, comprising:
- a detection unit detecting power consumption of said power consuming elements in a cycle of repetitive operation;
- and
- a permitting unit permitting an integrated value of the power consumption per cycle of the repetitive operations of said power consuming elements of said machine, detected by said detection unit, to be displayed, printed, stored in a recording medium or outputted to a communication line.
A power consumption display device for a machine which includes power consuming elements concerned with drive or control and carries out a same operation repeatedly, comprising:
- a detection unit detecting power consumption of said power consuming elements every predetermined time period;
- and
- a permitting unit permitting a total sum of an integral value of the power consumption per cycle of repetitive operations of said power consuming elements, detected by said detection unit, to be displayed, printed, stored in a recording medium or outputted to a communication line every predetermined time period.
A power consumption display device for a machine which includes power consuming elements concerned with drive or control and carries out the same operation repeatedly, comprising:
- a detection unit detecting power consumption and the number of repetitive operation cycles of said machine every predetermined time period;
- and
- a permitting unit permitting an integrated value of the power consumption per cycle of repetitive operations of said machine and the number of repetitive operation cycles, detected by said detection unit every predetermined time period, to be displayed, printed, stored in a recording medium or outputted to a communication line.
A power consumption display device for a machine which includes power consuming elements concerned with drive or control and carried out the same operation repeatedly, comprising:
- a detection unit detecting power consumption and the number of repetitive operation cycles of said power consuming elements every predetermined time period;
- a permitting unit permitting a total sum of an integrated value of the power consumption per cycle of repetitive operations of said power consuming elements and the number of repetitive operation cycles, detected by said detection unit every predetermined time period, to be displayed, printed, stored in a recording medium or outputted to a communication line.
A method for storing power consumption data for a machine, comprising:
- detecting power consumption of power consuming elements of the machine in a cycle of repetitive operation;
- calculating an integrated value of power consumption of the power consuming elements over the cycle;
- and
- storing the calculated integrated value of power consumption of said power consuming elements of the machine within each cycle, on a computer readable storage.
