Management system for agricultural vehicle and operation method thereof

Abstract

This application relates to a management system for an agricultural vehicle and an operation method thereof. In one aspect, a processor of a terminal is configured to generate a malfunction code when malfunction is detected via a sensor included in an agricultural vehicle. When the malfunction code is generated, the processor may operate in at least one of a first mode in which raw data obtained during a certain period of time from a time point when the malfunction code is generated is transmitted to a server via a communication module, or a second mode in which raw data during a certain first period of time before the time point when the malfunction code is generated and raw data during a certain second period of time after the time point when the malfunction code is generated are transmitted to the server via the communication module.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A system for obtaining information when an agricultural vehicle malfunctions, the system comprising:
 an agricultural vehicle where a terminal including a processor and a communication module is mounted; and   a server communicatively connected to the terminal,   wherein the processor of the terminal is configured to:   generate a malfunction code when malfunction is detected via a sensor included in the agricultural vehicle; and   when the malfunction code is generated, operate in at least one of a first mode in which raw data obtained during a certain period of time from a time point when the malfunction code is generated is transmitted to the server via the communication module, or a second mode in which raw data during a certain first period of time before the time point when the malfunction code is generated and raw data during a certain second period of time after the time point when the malfunction code is generated are transmitted to the server via the communication module.   
     
     
         2 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the processor of the terminal is further configured to sample raw data and transmit the sampled raw data to the server while the malfunction of the agricultural vehicle is not detected via the sensor,
 wherein the first mode is a mode in which the raw data obtained during the certain period of time from the time point when the malfunction code is generated is transmitted to the server without sampling, and   wherein the second mode is a mode in which the raw data during the certain first period of time before the time point when the malfunction code is generated is transmitted to the server without sampling, and the raw data during the certain second period of time after the time point when the malfunction code is generated is transmitted to the server without sampling.   
     
     
         3 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein:
 the processor of the terminal is further configured to transmit the malfunction code to the server when the malfunction code is generated, and   the server is configured to transmit a malfunction notification according to the malfunction code to an electronic device of a service manager of the agricultural vehicle.   
     
     
         4 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein:
 the processor of the terminal is further configured to transmit the malfunction code to the server when the malfunction code is generated, and   the server is configured to, in response to receiving the malfunction code, transmit location information of the agricultural vehicle to at least one of an electronic device of a service manager of the agricultural vehicle, an electronic device of a purchaser of the agricultural vehicle, and an emergency contact electronic device.   
     
     
         5 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the processor of the terminal is further configured to, when the malfunction of the agricultural vehicle is detected via the sensor, control a sound device of the agricultural vehicle to output sound. 
     
     
         6 . An operation method of a terminal mounted on an agricultural vehicle, the operation method comprising:
 generating a malfunction code when malfunction is detected via a sensor included in the agricultural vehicle; and   when the malfunction code is generated, operating in at least one of a first mode in which raw data obtained during a certain period of time from a time point when the malfunction code is generated is transmitted to a server via a communication module included in the agricultural vehicle, and a second mode in which raw data during a certain first period of time before the time point when the malfunction code is generated and raw data during a certain second period of time after the time point when the malfunction code is generated are transmitted to the server.   
     
     
         7 . The operation method of  claim 6 , further comprising:
 sampling raw data and transmitting the sampled raw data to the server while the malfunction of the agricultural vehicle is not detected via the sensor, wherein:   the first mode is a mode in which the raw data obtained during the certain period of time from the time point when the malfunction code is generated is transmitted to the server without sampling, and   the second mode is a mode in which the raw data during the certain first period of time before the time point when the malfunction code is generated is transmitted to the server without sampling, and the raw data during the certain second period of time after the time point when the malfunction code is generated is transmitted to the server without sampling.
