Abstract:To address the reliance of shearer gearbox oil maintenance on manual experience and the difficulty of quantitatively evaluating multi-feature data,a multi-feature data-driven oil maintenance decision system is developed,which extracts 14 characteristic parameters from lubricant temperature,physicochemical indicators,and ferrography data.And three key technologies are proposed:a wear trend recognition method based on Recurrent Neural Network(RNN),which captures temporal dependencies using sliding windows;a wear stage classification method based on Bidirectional Gated Recurrent Unit(Bi-GRU),which learns bidirectional temporal relationships of features;and a fault analysis and recommendation approach combining three-level quantitative scaling and hierarchical logical reasoning,establishing correlations between degradation parameters and maintenance suggestions.Testing shows that the RNN-based wear trend recognition accuracy reaches 90.7%,and the Bi-GRU-based wear stage classification accuracy is 91.49%.Field validation results align with expert assessments.Additionally,bench tests demonstrate the system's generalization capability.The developed system effectively integrates multi-source heterogeneous data,enabling intelligent identification of wear status,fault analysis,and maintenance recommendations for shearer reducers,significantly reducing reliance on manual experience and enhancing the objectivity and reliability of maintenance decisions.
