Abstract
A diagnostic apparatus includes a control unit configured to control a diagnostic operation for driving a belt, a first tension calculation unit configured to perform, based on data obtained from the diagnostic operation, a calculation to estimate a first belt tension value that is a tension value of the belt when the belt is not worn, a second tension calculation unit configured to calculate a second belt tension value in a case where a tension reduction factor of the belt and a wear factor of the belt are included, and a third tension calculation unit configured to calculate the degree of wear of the belt based on the first belt tension value and the second belt tension value. Accordingly, the diagnostic apparatus can support estimation of the degree of wear of a belt or abnormality diagnosis.
