Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of axle box bearing monitoring equipment, and relates to a method and system for monitoring the degradation state of axle box bearings based on morphological feature extraction. Background Technology

[0002] The bogie is a crucial component of railway trains. It mainly consists of a frame, wheelsets, axle boxes, and braking systems, serving primarily to provide support and steering. The axle box, which fits onto the journals of the wheelsets and connects them to the bogie frame, is responsible for transferring the weight and load of the train body to the wheelsets. Through the axle box, the train's weight and various loads are effectively transferred to the wheelsets, ensuring the train's stability and safety during operation.

[0003] Railway transportation plays an irreplaceable and vital role in national economic and social development. With the rapid development of railway transportation, the axle box bearings of train bogies, as key components in train operation, directly affect the safety and efficiency of train operation. Under complex operating environments and conditions, axle box bearings frequently face the effects of fatigue damage, overload, and corrosion, all of which lead to a gradual decline in their performance, i.e., degradation, thus directly impacting the safe operation of trains.

[0004] Monitoring the health and degradation status of bogie axle box bearings has always been a key focus and challenge in railway operation and maintenance. Traditional methods for monitoring the health and degradation status of axle box bearings often rely on manual experience and professional knowledge, requiring the calculation of a series of complex indicators. This cumbersome and inefficient diagnostic process fails to meet the demands of modern train operation and maintenance. Therefore, developing an efficient and accurate method for monitoring the degradation status of axle box bearings is of great significance for ensuring train safety and improving train operating efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method and system for monitoring the degradation state of axle box bearings based on morphological feature extraction, which can automatically assess the degradation state of axle box bearings and improve work efficiency.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the basic solution of this invention is: a method for monitoring the degradation state of axle box bearings based on morphological feature extraction, comprising the following steps:

[0007] S1, Vibration sensors are placed on the axle box bearings of the train bogie to collect the vibration signal x(n) of the axle box bearings;

[0008] S2, constructing the morphological composite opening operator O and the composite closing operator C;

[0009] Based on the morphological composite opening operator O and composite closing operator C, a signal feature extraction operator D is constructed.

[0010] The signal feature extraction operator D is used iteratively to extract multiple feature sequences of the bearing vibration signal x(n).

[0011] S3. Based on multiple feature sequences of the vibration signal x(n) of the axle box bearing, a corresponding multivariate normal distribution is constructed as the normal model f of the vibration signal x(n);

[0012] S4. Collect vibration signal data of the bearing box under normal operating conditions. Following steps S2 and S3, establish a multivariate normal distribution as the reference normal model f. B ;

[0013] Collect real-time vibration signals of the axle box bearing, and establish a real-time normal model f according to steps S2 and S3. R ;

[0014] S5, Calculate the real-time normal model f R Compared with the baseline normal model f B The deviation between the two values ​​is used as the assessment value V for the degradation state of the axle box bearing, and the degree of degradation of the axle box bearing is measured to issue a pre-alarm message.

[0015] The working principle and beneficial effects of this basic scheme are as follows: This technical scheme acquires the vibration signal of the axle box bearing, constructs a composite operator based on the basic transformations of mathematical morphology, and builds a signal feature extraction operator to extract the feature sequence of the signal in an iterative manner. A normal model of the vibration signal is then established from the feature sequence. Next, the vibration signal of the axle box bearing under normal operating conditions is acquired to establish a reference normal model, and the real-time vibration signal of the axle box bearing is acquired to establish a real-time normal model. Finally, the deviation between the real-time normal model and the reference normal model is calculated to assess the degradation state of the axle box bearing and output pre-alarm information. This method is simple, efficient, and has strong noise resistance, effectively assessing the degradation state of the axle box bearing.

[0016] Furthermore, in step S2, based on the fundamental morphological transformations, a morphological composite opening operator O is constructed as follows:

[0017]

[0018] Where x is the signal sequence; g1 is the first structuring element sequence; and g2 is the second structuring element sequence. The basic morphological transformation, opening, is defined as follows:

[0019]

[0020] Where x is the signal sequence participating in the opening operation; s is the structuring element sequence participating in the opening operation; "⊙" represents the basic morphological transformation: erosion; This represents the basic morphological transformation: dilation;

[0021] The basic morphological transformations, corrosion and dilation, are defined as follows:

[0022]

[0023] Where x(n) is the signal sequence participating in the transformation, n is the index of the point in the signal sequence x(n), and N is the total number of points in the signal sequence x(n); s(j) is the sequence of structuring elements participating in the transformation, j is the index of the point in the structuring element sequence s(j), and J is the total number of points in the structuring element sequence s(j); [](n) represents the value of the nth point of the transformation result;

[0024] Furthermore, after the signal sequence x(n) undergoes erosion and dilation transformations by the structuring element s(j), missing data is filled with 0s to maintain the length of the signal sequence x(n).

[0025]

[0026] Based on the fundamental transformations of mathematical morphology, a morphological composite opening operator is constructed, which is simple to operate.

[0027] Furthermore, in step S2, the composite closing operator C is constructed as follows:

[0028] C[x,g1,g2]=(x·g1)·g2

[0029] C[x,g1,g2](n)=[(x·g1)·g2](n)={[x(n)·g1(m)]·g2(h)}

[0030] Where x is the signal sequence; g1 is the first structuring element sequence; g2 is the second structuring element sequence; · represents the basic morphological transformation: the closing operation, which is defined as follows:

[0031]

[0032] Where x is the signal sequence participating in the closing operation; w is the structuring element sequence participating in the closing operation;

[0033] The first structuring element sequence g1(m) is a triangle with height H1 and width L1, and its expression is:

[0034]

[0035] The second structuring element sequence g2(h) is sinusoidal, with a height of H2 and a width of L2, and its expression is:

[0036]

[0037] The calculation is simple and easy to operate.

[0038] Furthermore, the method for constructing a signal feature extraction operator D to extract the five feature sequences of the axle box bearing vibration signal x(n) is as follows:

[0039] The input to the feature extraction operator D is the signal sequence to be processed. The feature extraction operator D includes two parallel lines, each of which is a combination of a composite open operator O and a composite closed operator C. Finally, the results of the two lines are averaged to obtain the output, which is the feature sequence of the signal.

[0040] After feature extraction by feature extraction operator D, the signal sequence x(n) is used to obtain the feature sequence y1(n), and the corresponding residual signal r1(n) is calculated:

[0041] r1(n) = x(n) - y1(n)

[0042] The feature extraction operator D is used to extract the features of r1(n) to obtain the feature sequence y2(n), and the corresponding residual signal r2(n) is calculated:

[0043] r2(n) = r1(n) - y2(n)

[0044] The feature extraction operator D is used iteratively until five feature sequences are extracted: y1(n), y2(n), ..., y5(n).

[0045] Five feature sequences were extracted for later use.

[0046] Furthermore, in step S3, the method for constructing the corresponding multivariate normal distribution as the normal model f of the vibration signal x(n) based on the five feature sequences of the axle box bearing vibration signal x(n) is as follows:

[0047] Five feature sequences y1(n), y2(n), ..., y5(n) are extracted from the vibration signal x(n). The mean values ​​μ1, μ2, ..., μ5 and the covariance matrix Σ of each feature sequence are calculated.

[0048]

[0049] Where, σ ij Represents the sequence y i (n) and y j The covariance between (n) is calculated using the following formula:

[0050]

[0051] in, Representing the feature sequence y respectively i (n), y j The average value of (n); R is the total number of points in the feature sequence y, and y(t) represents the value of point t in the feature sequence y;

[0052] Mean vector composed of the average values ​​of each feature sequence And the covariance matrix Σ, construct a multivariate normal distribution f as the normal model of the vibration signal x(n), and the probability density function of the multivariate normal distribution f. for:

[0053]

[0054] in, Let be the independent variable of the probability density function, which is a vector with respect to the mean. Column vectors of the same length; Let Σ be the mean vector of the multivariate normal distribution f, Σ be the covariance matrix of the multivariate normal distribution f, exp[] denote the exponent of the natural constant e; k is the mean vector. The length of the vector is T, where T represents finding the transpose of the vector.

[0055] Five feature sequences extracted from the vibration signal x(n) are used to construct a corresponding multivariate normal distribution as the normal model f of the vibration signal x(n).

[0056] Furthermore, in step S5, the real-time normal model f is calculated. R Compared with the baseline normal model f B The deviation between them is determined by the following steps:

[0057] Calculate the normal model f of real-time vibration signal R Compared with the baseline normal model f B The JS divergence between JSD(f) R ||f B ), as the deviation between the two models:

[0058]

[0059] Where KL represents the KL divergence; f M It is f R with f B The mixed average distribution satisfies:

[0060]

[0061] in, The distribution is a multivariate normal distribution f M The mean vector, Σ M The distribution is a multivariate normal distribution f M The covariance matrix; The distribution is a multivariate normal distribution f R The mean vector, The distribution is a multivariate normal distribution f B The mean vector; Σ R The distribution is a multivariate normal distribution f R The covariance matrix, Σ B The distribution is a multivariate normal distribution f B The covariance matrix;

[0062] The KL divergence is:

[0063]

[0064] Among them, f p with f q For the two multivariate normal distributions involved in the KL divergence calculation, The distribution is a multivariate normal distribution f p f q The mean vector, Σ p Σ q The distribution is a multivariate normal distribution f p f q The covariance matrix is ​​given by f, det() calculates the determinant of the matrix, Tr() calculates the trace of the matrix, T calculates the transpose of the vector, and d represents the multivariate normal distribution f. p with f q mean vector The dimension of the mean vector is the length of the mean vector.

[0065] Calculate the real-time normal model f R Compared with the baseline normal model f B The deviation between them is used to assess the degradation condition of the axle box bearings.

[0066] Furthermore, using the normal model f of the real-time vibration signal of the axle box bearing... R Compared with the baseline normal model f B The JS divergence between the two is used as the degradation state assessment value V. The larger V is, the more severe the degradation state of the bearing box is.

[0067] When 0 ≤ V < 0.20, the axle box bearing is in normal condition;

[0068] When 0.20≤V<0.40, the axle box bearing is in a state of slight degradation;

[0069] When 0.40≤V<0.60, the axle box bearing is in a state of moderate degradation;

[0070] When V≥0.60, the axle box bearing is in a severely degraded state;

[0071] A warning message is issued when the bearing in the axle box is in a state of moderate degradation.

[0072] By dividing the state into multiple state ranges and using the degradation state evaluation value V, the degradation state of the axle box bearing can be quickly determined, resulting in higher efficiency.

[0073] The present invention also provides a system for monitoring the degradation status of axle box bearings based on morphological feature extraction, including a data acquisition module and a processing module;

[0074] The data acquisition module includes a vibration sensor arranged on the axle box bearing of the train bogie, and the data acquisition module is used to acquire the vibration signal x(n) of the axle box bearing;

[0075] The input terminal of the processing module is connected to the output terminal of the data acquisition module. The processing module executes the method described in this invention to monitor the degradation state of the axle box bearing.

[0076] Using this system to efficiently and accurately monitor the degradation status of axle box bearings is of great significance for ensuring train safety and improving train operation efficiency. Attached Figure Description
