This is mainly reflected in the abrasion of the wheelset tread and the failure of the bogie running gear, which produce abnormal noises. In addition, occasional abnormal noises occur in the carriages during the operation of the EMU. These faults require the on-board mechanic to check and identify them in a short time, and the requirements are relatively high. In the maintenance of EMUs, there is also a lack of professional equipment for the diagnosis and analysis of abnormal noises of fans and motors.

[0023] In the device of the above embodiment, the sound data and vibration data of the EMU fan, including the normal data and abnormal sound data of the EMU fan, are collected through the sensing probe 1; and the collected data is transmitted to the analog-to-digital converter 2. The analog-to-digital converter 2 converts the received sound data and vibration data, converts the audio analog signal into a digital signal, and transmits the converted data to the FPGA board 3. The FPGA board 3 performs signal processing and analysis on the received data. When there is an abnormal sound or abnormal sound fault, the FPGA board 3 can issue a real-time fault alarm. At the same time, the FPGA board 3 transmits the data to the embedded system 5. The embedded system 5 identifies the voiceprint information according to the pre-trained abnormal sound or abnormal sound model, analyzes whether there is an abnormal sound or abnormal sound fault, and displays the identification result on the touch screen 6. When there is an abnormal sound or abnormal sound fault, the touch screen 6 can display the abnormal sound or abnormal sound waveform and display a red indicator light. The FPGA board 3 controls the analog-to-digital converter 2 to convert the analog signal into a digital signal, and the sampling rate is preferably 50K. The circuit board is connected to the touch screen 6 through a flexible flat cable. The operation and maintenance personnel implement sound data testing and storage by operating the touch screen 6 , and store the sound data in the embedded system 5 .

[0024] As a preferred example, the circuit board is also integrated with a buffer area 4, and the signal input and output ports of the buffer area 4 are connected to the signal input and output ports of the FPGA board 3. The FPGA board 3 receives the sound data through the analog-to-digital converter 2 and temporarily stores the data in the buffer area 4. When the data stored in the buffer area 4 reaches 50,000, the data is transmitted from the FPGA board 3 to the embedded system 5 through the communication interface. The data transmission interface adopts a high-speed SPI bus. According to the requirements, considering the stability of data transmission, the data transmission is set at 976K.

In this way, the sound sensor 13 can more accurately locate the source direction of abnormal sounds and improve the direction of fault location. The acoustic isolation cover 11 is composed of a foldable steel tray. The vibration information of the EMU fan is collected by the vibration sensor 14. Preferably, the vibration sensor 14 adopts a 485-type temperature vibration transmitter, whose frequency range is 10Hz-5KHz, and can collect fan vibration information in real time. The magnet 15 is adsorbed on the vibration sensor 14.
