Abstract

This invention belongs to the field of mechanical fault diagnosis and intelligent visual inspection technology, and particularly relates to a method for measuring the degree of gear scuffing based on visual segmentation. The method includes: S1, acquiring images of the scuffed surface of the gear under complex lighting and high reflectivity conditions; S2, generating a training set; S3, constructing an improved U-Net semantic segmentation network DSA-Net, where the encoder of DSA-Net consists of stacked reflection-invariant enhanced convolutional modules DSA-DSConv, and the decoder includes a position-aware dynamic sampling module; S4, training the DSA-Net model to obtain the optimal segmentation model; S5, inputting the scuffed surface image into the optimal segmentation model to output a segmentation mask image of the scuffing defect; S6, post-processing the segmentation mask image and calculating the ratio of the pixel area of ​​the final scuffed region mask to the total pixel area of ​​the effective tooth surface region mask, using this ratio as a quantitative evaluation index of the degree of gear scuffing. This method can effectively suppress high reflectivity interference from metal tooth surfaces, adaptively model irregular scuffing boundaries, and achieve accurate quantification of the scuffed region area.
