[0042] The accompanying drawings are included to provide a further understanding of the present disclosure and constitute a part of the specification, which together with the following detailed description, serve to explain the present disclosure. In the drawings:

[0049] The specific implementation of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific implementation described herein is only used to illustrate and explain the present disclosure, and is not used to limit the present disclosure.

[0050] It should be noted that all the actions of acquiring signals, information or data in the present disclosure are carried out in compliance with the corresponding data protection regulations and policies of the country where the device is located, and with the authorization given by the corresponding device owner.

[0051] In the related art, the fault diagnosis and monitoring of the gearbox are often completed by analyzing the fault characteristic frequency, and the extraction of the fault characteristic frequency is often realized by a variational mode decomposition (VMD). However, the decomposition number of VMD is often artificially set and has certain instability. When the decomposition number is too large, the high and low components will be fused, affecting the extraction of the fault characteristic frequency; when the decomposition number is too small, the components with specific sparse characteristics cannot be decomposed, so it is particularly important to control the decomposition number of VMD.

[0052] Therefore, the present disclosure provides a gearbox fault judgment method, which accurately controls the decomposition number of VMD, avoids excessive or insufficient decomposition of the original signal of the gearbox, and can accurately identify the fault characteristic frequency of the gearbox.

[0053] Figure 1 A flowchart of a gearbox fault judgment method provided by an example embodiment is shown. As shown in the figure, Figure 1 The method comprises:

[0054] S110, for a plurality of decomposition numbers, respectively, the original signal collected from the gearbox is decomposed into a plurality of modal components corresponding to the decomposition number by a variational mode decomposition method.

[0055] The decomposition number is a positive integer, and the original signal is decomposed into several modal components when the decomposition number is several. According to the empirical value, when the decomposition number is a positive integer not greater than 10, the effect of the decomposed modal component is best. For example, if the decomposition number is set to 2, the original signal collected from the gearbox is decomposed into 2 modal components by the variational mode decomposition method.

[0056] Specifically, the plurality of decomposed modal components are discrete, and are modal components with specific sparse properties in the bandwidth in the frequency domain, and each modal component is a limited bandwidth with a center frequency. The essence of variational mode decomposition is to find each modal component with the smallest bandwidth sum under the constraint that the sum of each modal component is equal to the original signal.

[0057] In an optional embodiment, all the modal components decomposed include a modal component representing an effective signal and a modal component representing noise, wherein a modal component similar to the original signal is determined as the modal component representing the effective signal, and a modal component greatly different from the original signal is determined as the modal component representing the noise. The modal component representing the noise is removed, and the remaining modal components representing the effective signal are taken as the plurality of modal components corresponding to the decomposition number, and only the remaining modal components representing the effective signal are processed in a subsequent step, so as to achieve the effect of noise reduction.

[0058] In S120, the optimal decomposition number is determined based on the plurality of modal components corresponding to each decomposition number.

[0059] The optimal decomposition number is determined to adaptively determine the decomposition number of the modal components of the variational modal decomposition, to accurately extract the fault feature frequency of the gearbox, and further accurately determine the fault of the gearbox. The modal components corresponding to the optimal decomposition number can better analyze the fault feature frequency of the gearbox.

[0060] In S130, one modal component with the maximum convex flatness factor is determined from the plurality of modal components corresponding to the optimal decomposition number as a target modal component, and the convex flatness factor represents the steepness of the modal component.

[0061] For each modal component corresponding to the optimal decomposition number, a corresponding convex flatness factor is calculated, which represents the steepness of the corresponding modal component. The larger the convex flatness factor, the steeper the corresponding modal component, and the greater the possibility of the occurrence of the fault of the gearbox. Therefore, the modal component with the maximum convex flatness factor is selected as the target modal component for the extraction of the fault feature frequency.

[0062] In a specific implementation, the above step S130 includes: for each modal component corresponding to the optimal decomposition number, calculating a fourth-order central moment and a variance corresponding to the modal component; and calculating a ratio of the fourth-order central moment to the square of the variance as the convex flatness factor corresponding to the modal component.

[0063] Specifically, the calculation formula of the convex flatness factor C is as follows:

[0064]

[0065] The modal component is a discrete signal composed of a plurality of discrete points; in the formula, C i represents the convex flatness factor of the i-th modal component in the plurality of modal components corresponding to the optimal decomposition number, and m represents the number of discrete points in the i-th modal component in the modal component; x t represents the vibration amplitude corresponding to the t-th discrete point in the i-th modal component in the modal component; represents the average vibration amplitude of all discrete points in the i-th modal component in the modal component.

[0066] S140, determining whether the gearbox has a fault according to the envelope spectrum amplitude of the target modal component.

[0067] In a specific implementation, step S140 includes: obtaining a corresponding envelope spectrum based on the Fourier spectrum of the target modal component, and determining a fault characteristic frequency according to a frequency corresponding to a maximum amplitude in the envelope spectrum; and determining that the gearbox has a fault if the fault characteristic frequency is not within a preset frequency range. The preset frequency range represents a range of normal frequencies of the gearbox.

[0068] In an optional embodiment, after obtaining a corresponding envelope spectrum based on the Fourier spectrum of the target modal component, it is determined whether a maximum amplitude in the envelope spectrum is outside a preset amplitude range, where the preset amplitude range represents a normal amplitude range. If the maximum amplitude in the envelope spectrum is outside the preset amplitude range, the frequency corresponding to the maximum amplitude in the envelope spectrum is determined as the fault characteristic frequency.

[0069] It should be understood that the preset amplitude range and the preset frequency range can be flexibly set according to actual needs or set according to empirical values.

[0070] In the above technical solution, the original signal of the gearbox is first decomposed into a corresponding number of modal components for each decomposition number, and then the optimal decomposition number is found based on the modal components corresponding to each decomposition number. This can adaptively decompose different original signals to accurately decompose different original signals into a corresponding number of modal components, which can avoid over-decomposing or under-decomposing the original signal of the gearbox, and can be effectively used for extracting the fault characteristic frequency of the gearbox, thereby accurately judging the fault of the gearbox.

[0071] Figure 2 A flowchart showing the specific implementation of step S110 in an example embodiment is shown. As shown in Figure 2 the method includes:

[0072] S111, for any decomposition number, decomposing the original signal into a plurality of modal components corresponding to the decomposition number.

[0073] S112, updating the Fourier spectrum and the center frequency of each modal component by alternating multiplier method iteration.

[0074] For example, the Fourier spectrum U i (ω) and the center frequency ω i of each modal component are updated by alternating multiplier method iteration, and the formula is as follows:

[0075]

[0076]

[0077] wherein i represents the i-th modal component in the plurality of modal components corresponding to the decomposition number, j represents the j-th modal component in the plurality of modal components corresponding to the decomposition number, a represents a penalty factor, and ω represents a frequency, ω n+1 i represents the center frequency of the i-th modal component after the n+1 iteration, X n+1 i represents the Fourier spectrum of the i-th modal component after the n+1 iteration, X(ω) represents the Fourier spectrum of the original signal, and λ(ω) represents the Fourier spectrum of the Lagrange penalty factor.

[0078] S113, obtaining the final plurality of modal components in a case where the Fourier spectrum and the center frequency of each modal component converge.

[0079] As can be seen from the above process, the iteration optimization is performed by the alternating multiplier method, and each modal component with the converged Fourier spectrum and center frequency is obtained through continuous iteration, so as to obtain the decomposition result of the current variational modal decomposition.

[0080] Figure 3 A flow chart showing the specific implementation of step S120 in an example embodiment is shown. As shown in the flow chart, Figure 3 the method comprises:

[0081] S121, for any decomposition number, calculating the quality value of each modal component according to the modal component corresponding to the decomposition number.

[0082] The quality value reflects the resonance degree of the modal component signal, and the greater the quality value, the better the frequency aggregation of the modal component signal, and the higher the resonance property.

[0083] S122, calculating the variation corresponding to the decomposition number according to the quality value of each modal component, the variation representing the stability of the quality values of the plurality of modal components.

[0084] The size of the variation reflects the stability of the group of modal component data.

[0085] In the specific implementation, the above step S122 comprises: calculating the difference value of the quality values of each adjacent two modal components; and calculating the variation corresponding to the decomposition number according to the difference value of the quality values of each adjacent two modal components.

[0086] Specifically, the variation S k is calculated according to the following formula:

[0087]

[0088] wherein k represents the decomposition number of the variational mode decomposition, i represents the i-th mode component in the plurality of mode components corresponding to the decomposition number, Q i represents the quality value of the i-th mode component in the plurality of mode components corresponding to the decomposition number, Q i+1 represents the quality value of the i-th mode component in the plurality of mode components corresponding to the decomposition number, Q i represents the quality value of the adjacent next mode component.

[0089] S123, selecting the decomposition number with the minimum variation as the optimal decomposition number.

[0090] Since the variation is used to measure the stability of the group of mode component data, the optimal decomposition number is the decomposition number corresponding to the most stable group of mode component data.

[0091] From the above process, by selecting the decomposition number corresponding to the most stable group of mode components, the optimal value of the decomposition number of the variational mode decomposition can be adaptively determined, and the optimal mode component of the variational mode decomposition can be obtained, which can be further effectively used for extracting the fault feature frequency of the gearbox.

[0092] Figure 4 A flow chart showing the specific implementation of step S121 in an example embodiment is shown. As Figure 4 shown, the method comprises:

[0093] S1211, determining the maximum center frequency and the minimum center frequency in the plurality of mode components corresponding to the decomposition number according to the plurality of mode components.

[0094] S1212, obtaining the target bandwidth according to the difference between the maximum center frequency and the minimum center frequency.

[0095] wherein the calculation formula of the target bandwidth BW is as follows:

[0096] BW = ω max - ω min

[0097] wherein ω max represents the maximum center frequency in the plurality of mode components corresponding to the decomposition number; and ω min represents the minimum center frequency in the plurality of mode components corresponding to the decomposition number.

[0098] S1213, calculating the ratio of the center frequency corresponding to each mode component to the target bandwidth as the quality value of the mode component.

[0099] wherein the calculation formula of the quality value Q i is as follows:

[0100]

[0101] ωi= ω0+ (i- 1) BW Q i ωi= ω0+ (i- 1) BW Q i ωi= ω0+ (i- 1) BW Q

[0102] From the above process, by calculating the ratio of the center frequency of each modal component corresponding to the target bandwidth, the quality value of each modal component is obtained, which can provide accurate data for subsequent calculation of variation.
