Gyratory crusher is a kind of commonly used mining machinery. Because of its heavy workload and complex working environment, it is prone to failure and low reliability. In order to solve this problem, this paper proposes a fault diagnosis method of the gyratory crusher based on fast entropy multistage VMD, which is used to quickly and accurately find the possible fault problems of the gyratory crusher. This method mainly extracts the vibration signal by combining fast entropy and variational mode decomposition, so as to analyze the components of the vibration signal. Among them, fast entropy is used to quickly determine the number of modes in the signal spectrum and the bandwidth occupied by the modes. The extracted parameters can be converted into the input parameters of VMD. VMD can accurately extract the modal components in the signal by inputting the number of modes and related parameters. Due to the differences between modes, using the same parameters to extract the modes often leads to inaccurate results. Therefore, the concept of multilevel VMD is proposed. The parameters of different modes are determined by fast entropy. The modes in the signals are separated and extracted with different parameters so that different signal modes can be accurately extracted. In order to verify the accuracy of the method, this paper uses the data collected from the rotary crusher to test, and the results show that the proposed FE method can quickly and effectively extract the fault components in the vibration signal.

Diagnosis Method

Due to the existence of multiple rotating parts in the planetary gearbox—such as the sun gear, planet gears, planet carriers, and its unique planetary motion, etc.—the vibration signals generated under multiple fault conditions are time-varying and nonstable, thus making fault diagnosis difficult. In order to solve the problem of planetary gearbox composite fault diagnosis, an improved particle swarm optimization variational mode decomposition (IPVMD) and improved convolutional neural network (I-CNN) are proposed. The method takes as input the spectrum of the original vibration signal that contains rich information. First, the automatic feature extraction of signal spectrum is performed by I-CNN, while a classifier is used to diagnose the fault modes. Second, the composite fault signal is decomposed into multiple single fault signals by adaptive variational mode, and the signal is decomposed as a model input to diagnose the single fault component. Finally, a complete intelligent diagnosis of planetary gearboxes is conducted. Through experimental verification, the composite fault diagnosis method combining IPVMD and I-CNN will diagnose the composite fault and effectively diagnose the sub-fault included in the composite fault.

It is difficult to extract the fault signal features of locomotive rolling bearings and the accuracy of fault diagnosis is low. In this paper, a novel fault diagnosis method based on the optimized variational mode decomposition (VMD) and resonance demodulation technology, namely GNVRFD, is proposed to realize the fault diagnosis of locomotive rolling bearings. In the proposed GNVRFD method, the genetic algorithm and nonlinear programming are combined to design a novel parameter optimization algorithm to adaptively optimize the two parameters of the VMD. Then the optimized VMD is employed to decompose the collected vibration signal into a series of intrinsic mode functions (IMFs), and the kurtosis value of each IMF is calculated, respectively. According to the principle of maximum value, two most sensitive IMF components are selected to reconstruct the vibration signal. The resonance demodulation technology is used to decompose the reconstructed vibration signal in order to obtain the envelope spectrum, and the fault frequency of locomotive rolling bearings is effectively obtained. Finally, the actual data of rolling bearings is selected to testify the effectiveness of the proposed GNVRFD method. The experiment results demonstrate that the proposed GNVRFD method can more accurately and effectively diagnose the fault of locomotive rolling bearings by comparing with other fault diagnosis methods.

In order to discover the fault with roller bearing in time, a new fault diagnosis method based on Empirical mode decomposition (EMD) and BP neural network is put forward in the paper. First, we get the fault signal through experiments. Then we use EMD to decompose the vibration signal into a series of single signals. We can extract main fault information from the single signals. The kurtosis coefficient of the single signals forms a feature vector which is used as the input data of the BP neural network. The trained BP neural network can be used for fault identification. Through analyzing, BP neural network can distinguish the fault into normal state, inner race fault, outer race fault. The results show that this method can gain very stable classification performance and good computational efficiency.

Diagnosis Method

During the operation process of a gearbox, the vibration signals can reflect the dynamic states of the gearbox. The feature extraction of the vibration signal will directly influence the accuracy and effectiveness of fault diagnosis. One major challenge associated with the extraction process is the mode mixing, especially under such circumstance of intensive frequency. A novel fault diagnosis method based on frequency-modulated empirical mode decomposition is proposed in this paper. Firstly, several stationary intrinsic mode functions can be obtained after the initial vibration signal is processed using frequency-modulated empirical mode decomposition method. Using the method, the vibration signal feature can be extracted in unworkable region of the empirical mode decomposition. The method has the ability to separate such close frequency components, which overcomes the major drawback of the conventional methods. Numerical simulation results showed the validity of the developed signal processing method. Secondly, energy entropy was calculated to reflect the changes in vibration signals in relation to faults. At last, the energy distribution could serve as eigenvector of support vector machine to recognize the dynamic state and fault type of the gearbox. The analysis results from the gearbox signals demonstrate the effectiveness and veracity of the diagnosis approach.

Aiming at the problem that it is difficult to extract fault features from the nonlinear and non-stationary vibration signals of wind turbine rolling bearings, which leads to the low diagnosis and recognition rate, a feature extraction method based on multi-island genetic algorithm (MIGA) improved variational mode decomposition (VMD) and multi-features is proposed. The decomposition effect of the VMD method is limited by the number of decompositions and the selection of penalty factors. This paper uses MIGA to optimize the parameters. The improved VMD method is used to decompose the vibration signal into a number of intrinsic mode functions (IMF), and a group of components containing the most information is selected through the Holder coefficient. For these components, multi-features based on Renyi entropy feature, singular value feature, and Hjorth parameter feature are extracted as the final feature vector, which is input to the classifier to realize the fault diagnosis of rolling bearing. The experimental results prove that the proposed method can more effectively extract the fault characteristics of rolling bearings. The fault diagnosis model based on this method can accurately identify bearing signals of 16 different fault types, severity, and damage points.

Traditional fault diagnosis methods of DC (direct current) motors require establishing accurate mathematical models, effective state and parameter estimations, and appropriate statistical decision-making methods. However, these preconditions considerably limit traditional motor fault diagnosis methods. To address this issue, a new mechanical fault diagnosis method was proposed. Firstly, the vibration signals of motors were collected by the designed acquisition system. Subsequently, variational mode decomposition (VMD) was adopted to decompose the signal into a series of intrinsic mode functions and extract the characteristics of the vibration signals based on sample entropy. Finally, a united random forest improvement based on a SPRINT algorithm was employed to identify vibration signals of rotating machinery, and each branch tree was trained by applying different bootstrap sample sets. As the results reveal, the proposed fault diagnosis method is featured with good generalization performance, as the recognition rate of samples is more than 90%. Compared with the traditional neural network, data-heavy parameter optimization processes are avoided in this method. Therefore, the VMD-SampEn-RF-based method proposed in this paper performs well in fault diagnosis of DC motors, providing new ideas for future fault diagnoses of rotating machinery.

According to the non-stationary characteristic of rotating machinery vibration signals of a rotor system with a loose pedestal fault, variational mode decomposition was applied in the pedestal looseness fault diagnosis for such a rotor system. Variational mode decomposition is used to decompose the rotor vibration signal into several stable components. This can achieve the separation of the pedestal looseness fault signal from the background signals, and extract the fault characteristic of a vibration signal from a rotor system with pedestal looseness. Experimental data from a rotor system with pedestal looseness were used to verify the proposed method. The results showed that the stable components of the rotor vibration signal obtained by variational mode decomposition have obvious amplitude modulation characteristics. The components which contain fault information were analyzed by envelope demodulation, which can extract the pedestal looseness fault features of a rotor vibration signal. Therefore, the variational mode decomposition method can be effectively applied to the pedestal looseness fault diagnosis of such a rotor system.

The feature extraction of composite fault of gearbox in mining machinery has always been a difficulty in the field of fault diagnosis. Especially in strong background noise, the frequency of each fault feature is different, so an adaptive time-frequency analysis method is urgently needed to extract different types of faults. Considering that the signal after complementary ensemble empirical mode decomposition (CEEMD) contains a lot of pseudo components, which further leads to misdiagnosis. The article proposes a new method for actively removing noise components. Firstly, the best scale factor of multi-scale sample entropy (MSE) is determined by signals with different signal to noise ratios (SNRs); secondly, the minimum value of a large number of random noise MSE is extracted and used as the threshold of CEEMD; then, the effective Intrinsic mode functions(IMFs) component is reconstructed, and the reconstructed signal is CEEMD decomposed again; finally, after multiple iterations, the MSE values of the component signal that are less than the threshold are obtained, and the iteration is terminated. The proposed method is applied to the composite fault simulation signal and mining machinery vibration signal, and the composite fault feature is accurately extracted.
