Abstract
This paper introduces a fault diagnosis method for mine scraper conveyor gearbox gears using motor current signature analysis (MCSA). This approach solves problems related to gear fault characteristics that are affected by coal flow load and power frequency, which are difficult to extract efficiently. A fault diagnosis method is proposed based on variational mode decomposition (VMD)-Hilbert spectrum and ShuffleNet-V2. Firstly, the gear current signal is decomposed into a series of intrinsic mode functions (IMF) by using VMD, and the sensitive parameters of VMD are optimized by using a genetic algorithm (GA). The Sensitive IMF algorithm judges the modal function sensitive to fault information after VMD processing. By analyzing the local Hilbert instantaneous energy spectrum for fault-sensitive IMF, an accurate expression of signal energy changing with time is obtained to generate the local Hilbert immediate energy spectrum dataset of different fault gears. Finally, ShuffleNet-V2 is used to identify the gear fault state. The experimental results show that the accuracy of the ShuffleNet-V2 neural network is 91.66% after 778 s.
