Abstract:  Under variable load condition, it is difficult to extract the features of RV reducer gearbox, and its fault mode is also difficult to identify. To solve these problems, a fault diagnosis method (model) of gearbox under variable working conditions based on Laplace wavelet convolution network (LWNet) and attention mechanism (ATT) was proposed. Firstly, based on the principle of Laplace wavelet transform, a wavelet convolutional layer (Laplace Net) was designed instead of the first layer of traditional convolutional neural network to perform adaptive feature extraction on the input signal to obtain more obvious impact features. Then, the attention mechanism was introduced into the model convolutional network to enhance the fault information weight, and SoftMax was used as the classifier for fault diagnosis. In addition, to improve the stability of the model, each convolutional layer was followed by a batch normalization (BN)layer to normalize the features, and Dropout (0.5) was used to prevent overfitting. Finally, the method based on LWNet and ATT was validated using a dataset of RV gearboxes. The research results show that the method based on LWNet and ATT can adaptively locate the impact information of fault signals. Under the condition of constant load, the average diagnostic accuracy is as high as 99.92%. Comparing with the classical deep learning model and recent methods, the accuracy is improved by 3.25%~12.26%. This method has higher diagnostic efficiency and accuracy. Under the condition of variable load, the average accuracy of this method can reach 98.09%, which solves the limitation of feature extraction of vibration signals under variable working conditions.
