An elevator maintenance company maintains many types of elevators from many manufactures. So, they want to use manufacture- or type-independent elevator remote monitoring system. To do this, data logger, that receives elevator operating state data from sensor module installed in elevator and transfers the data to database, is required. In this paper, we design and implement data logger of elevator remote monitoring system for providing elevator operation state information to elevator maintenance company. Data logger receives elevator operation state data from sensor module installed in elevator, decodes data, and converts to API data for transferring elevator operation state data to server. In this paper, we describe the implementation of data logger using python, and show that our implementation of data logger is successfully operating in a real elevator operating environment via log message displayed at screen.

Elevator industry is a field that is mechanical, electrical and electronic technology and constantly requires inspection and maintenance considering various applications and various types. Recently, various elevator control and monitoring technologies with IT are developing for elevators on land. But technologies with IT have been hardly done in marine elevator that is consistently assured safety and reliability of life cycle for its parts in poor environment. In this paper, we implemented embedded main controller, floor controller and car controller that meet the requirements and use NMEA network protocol by analyzing home and abroad integrated elevator operation and management systems. Especially, we secured reliability of maintenance by real-time fault diagnosis and control that was implemented with limit switch, gyro sensor, temperature/humidity/barometric pressure sensor and fire detection sensor thinking over the environmental conditions of terrestrial and marine elevator.

To operate a large structure or a high-rise building, elevator is essential. Nevertheless, elevator breakdowns or accidents have been consistently reported. When the accidents are not serious, the records are not reported and cumulated in the Korea Elevator Safety Agency. Additionally, in case of replacement or repair of the parts of elevator, conflicts about the person responsible for the expense of the replacement or repair are frequently occurred. However the record of accidents is not decreasing and the conflict about the fund of elevator repair is serious. So, it is needed to reduce the elevator accidents or malfunction, the operation stop of the elevator, the conflict between building owners and users. Therefore, in this study, the elevator maintenance procedures during defect liability period, the notification procedure in case of breakdown or accident elevator, the direction of elevator maintenance contracts, the direction of the elevator inspection were suggested.

Approximately 40,000 elevators are installed every year in Korea, and they are used as a convenient means of transportation in daily life. However, the continuous increase in elevators has a social problem of increased safety accidents behind the functional aspect of convenience. There is an emerging need to induce preemptive and active elevator safety management by elevator management entities by strengthening the management of poorly managed elevators. Therefore, this study examines domestic research cases related to the evaluation items of the elevator safety quality rating system conducted in previous studies, and develops a statistical model that can examine the effect of elevator maintenance quality as a result of the safety management of the elevator management entity. We review two types: odds ratio analysis and logistic regression analysis models.

An elevator is a mechanical and electronic device composed of about 20,000 various parts, and is systematically operated with a close relationship with each other. By intuitively understanding this complex elevator structure and efficiently recognizing the operating model, it will be possible to increase the understanding of the elevator system and the efficiency of maintenance. The existing elevator management system is a process of collecting and understanding information based on data generated from elevators, and has a structure that lacks efficiency in expressing and managing real-world information during elevator maintenance. Therefore, this paper proposes a simulator framework that can operate efficiently based on the actual elevator model. By constructing the recognition of specific objects through a 3D-based service model and visualizing the operation process, it will be possible to enhance the understanding of the structure and operation required for elevator operation. To this end, the core components of the elevator system are identified, the relationship between them and the operating method are visualized, and a simulator is implemented. Based on this, it will be possible to provide a realistic information management and operating environment in virtual space and real platform.

Korea's elevator industry is one of the world's eighth-largest industrial sectors and the third largest in the world by new installations. This year, the number of elevators has exceeded 700,000, and the number of new installations is 30,000-40,000 every year. However, the news of elevator-related accidents is reported continuously through the media and the accident rate is not decreasing. In particular, among the recent accidents related to elevators, accidents related to elevator workers are increasing, causing social problems. This year, the National Assembly's Environmental Labor Relations Commission's National Auditors lost five lives a year and 12 elevator workers were killed in fall and stenosis accidents during the installation, maintenance and replacement of the elevators for about two years since 2018. It took place to adopt the representatives of four domestic elevator companies as witnesses. An elevator worker is a collective term for workers involved in the design, manufacturing, installation, replacement, maintenance, inspection, management, and supervision related to the elevator industry, and the related accidents are called elevator worker accidents. Analysis of elevator-related accidents in the past has shown that the fault of the user accounted for 70% of the total, and the fault of the worker accounted for about 2.5%, and the accident occurred to the user or the user due to carelessness of the worker during the lift-related work. Currently, elevator-related accidents are reported by the Korea Elevator Safety Agency under Article 48 of the Elevator Safety Management Act under the Ministry of Interior and Safety. If deemed necessary for the prevention and prevention of recurrence of an elevator accident, the cause and condition of the elevator accident may be investigated. However, the current draft law is limited only to elevators after installation inspection, and is separated from the Ministry of Employment and Labor's data on accidents occurring in the manufacturing and installation stages related to the elevator industry. This study analyzes the recent safety accidents of elevator workers and prepares safety measures to prevent them through the risk analysis, and also draws out the problems and improvements of the current elevator worker accident investigation to find the elevator worker accident rate that is on the increase trend.

As of December 2016, there are 608,828 elevators in operation in Korea and 179,790 elevators in more than 15 years. 30.4% of all elevator are aging. Improved maintenance of the elevator and proactive replacement of the parts of the elevator can extend the lifetime of the elevator and ensure safety. An unclean environment reduces the lifetime of elevator parts. If you do not clean the environment and prevent preventive parts replacement, eventually shortening the lifetime of the parts connected to the failed part or causing more damage will result in greater economic loss. Also, the risk of elevator safety accidents due to failures of elevator parts will be increased accordingly. The study of optimum replacement time of elevator parts will contribute to prevention of safety accident of elevator and prolongation of lifetime of elevator through preventive replacement of elevator parts.
