The rolling element bearing is an important part of mechanical equipment, it has various kinds of malfunctions, the location of the fault may occur in the inner ring, outer ring, or rolling element of the bearing. Therefore, traditional methods of classification are difficult to classify and identify effectively. To improve the accuracy of bearing fault diagnosis, the deep learning method is used to diagnose the fault of the rolling element bearing. In this paper, the long short-term memory and gated recurrent unit are combined to build a bearing fault diagnosis model. On the other hand, this paper adjusts the hidden layer structure and optimizes the network parameters to establish a better long short-term memory–gated recurrent unit–long short-term memory diagnostic model and classify the fault types of bearings with Softmax. The model proposed in this paper can effectively diagnose the bearing fault under the bearing data set of Case Western Reserve University and the University of Cincinnati. Compared with the traditional long short-term memory and the gated recurrent unit, the model proposed in this paper has high accuracy in fault diagnosis as well as certain reliability and generalization ability.

Accurate and reliable fault diagnosis is one of the key and difficult issues in mechanical condition monitoring. In recent years, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) has been widely used in mechanical condition monitoring, which is also a great breakthrough in the field of bearing fault diagnosis. However, CNN can only extract local features of signals. The model accuracy and generalization of the original vibration signals are very low in the process of vibration signal processing only by CNN. Based on the above problems, this paper improves the traditional convolution layer of CNN, and builds the learning module (local feature learning block, LFLB) of the local characteristics. At the same time, the Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) is introduced into the network, which is used to extract the global features. This paper proposes the new neural network—improved CNN-LSTM network. The extracted deep feature is used for fault classification. The improved CNN-LSTM network is applied to the processing of the vibration signal of the faulty bearing collected by the bearing failure laboratory of Inner Mongolia University of science and technology. The results show that the accuracy of the improved CNN-LSTM network on the same batch test set is 98.75%, which is about 24% higher than that of the traditional CNN. The proposed network is applied to the bearing data collection of Western Reserve University under the condition that the network parameters remain unchanged. The experiment shows that the improved CNN-LSTM network has better generalization than the traditional CNN.
