In industrial production, various mechanical equipment plays a crucial role, and their smooth operation directly affects the stability and efficiency of the production line. Among them, rolling bearings, as a common rotating component, undertake the important function of supporting and transmitting the load of rotating components. However, due to factors such as harsh working environments, load changes, and long-term wear, rolling bearings are prone to damage and faults, which in turn affect the operating efficiency and safety of the entire mechanical system.
[0003] Accurately predicting the remaining useful life (RUL) of rolling bearings is crucial for taking timely maintenance measures, reducing production line downtime, and improving production efficiency. Traditional remaining life prediction models based on empirical rules or simple statistical methods often fail to meet the requirements of accuracy and robustness in actual production. Therefore, more accurate and reliable methods for predicting the remaining service life of industrial bearings are needed to address the challenges. Summary of the Invention

The method includes: obtaining signals generated by the industrial bearings to be detected, inputting the signals into a trained prediction model for the remaining service life of industrial bearings, and obtaining a prediction result;
[0005] Training the prediction model for the remaining service life of industrial bearings includes: collecting signals during the operation of bearings from multiple rolling bearings, where the signals include vibration signals, temperature, and load; performing denoising and normalization processing on the collected signals; inputting the standardized signals into a time series prediction network to extract the deep features of the signals; inputting the deep features into a hierarchical cross-convolution network to obtain a forward information representation and a reverse information representation; using an information fusion technology to fuse the forward information representation and the reverse information representation, and using a head and tail needle technology to process the fused information representation to obtain a corresponding position information representation; outputting a prediction result for the remaining service life of industrial bearings according to the corresponding position information representation; calculating the loss function of the model according to the prediction result, adjusting the model parameters, and completing the training of the model when the loss function converges.
[0006] Advantages of the Present Invention
