Abstract
A cryocooler includes a motion conversion mechanism that converts rotating motion output by a motor into linear reciprocating motion of a displacer and includes a first component and a second component slidably connected to each other, a measuring instrument that is connected to the motor to output time-series data indicating power consumption of the motor or a current flowing through the motor, and a processing unit that detects abrasion of a sliding surface between a first component and a second component of the motion conversion mechanism on the basis of section data including an intake start timing or an exhaust start timing in the time-series data.
