As one of the important components of train traction motor, the bearing plays a key role in ensuring the safety of train operation. At present, the existing fault diagnosis methods for train traction motor bearings have the disadvantages of poor feature extraction ability, slow diagnosis speed, and low diagnosis accuracy. To solve the above problems, an improved deep residual network (IDRN) is proposed in this paper. Firstly, a new residual convolution block (RCB) is proposed to improve the extraction ability of hidden features. Secondly, the squeeze and excitation block (SE) is embedded in the residual block to increase the sensitivity of the model to features. Lastly, Adan is selected as the optimizer to increase the convergence speed of IDRN. The train traction motor bearing bench built by our research team is selected for the experiment. The results show that the test accuracy of IDRN on the bearing dataset of train traction motor is 98.72%, which is at least 2.27% higher than other comparative models. The IDRN model converges with fewer iterations in the training process, shortening the entire experiment time. At the same time, the CWRU bearing dataset and the bearing dataset with natural defects are selected for comparative verification. The experimental results show that the IDRN model exhibits strong robustness and practicability on different datasets.
