The invention discloses a fault diagnosis method and device for a variable
pitch bearing of a
wind driven generator based on a neural network, and the method comprises the steps: measuring different
azimuth angles of a blade and the
signal intensity of different point locations of a sensor, determining the optimal measurement
azimuth angle of the blade and a
point location arrangement scheme of the sensor, fixing the blade at the optimal
azimuth angle, collecting variable
pitch vibration data, and carrying out the fault diagnosis. Further
processing the collected vibration data into a
data set, constructing a neural
network model, training a network by using the collected
data set, and deploying the trained network into a PLC (
Programmable Logic Controller) to dynamically monitor the
fan in real time; the device comprises a
vibration sensor, a
data acquisition card and a
programmable logic controller (PLC). According to the invention, the neural network
algorithm is applied to the fault diagnosis of the variable-
pitch bearing of the
wind driven generator, the network is trained by using the historical vibration data, and then the fault diagnosis is carried out by using the trained network, so that the
health condition of the variable-
pitch bearing can be rapidly and accurately monitored in real time.
