Research progress on fault diagnosis of mining gearbox based on CiteSpace

Mining gearboxes are mechanical devices used to reduce rotational speed and increase torque, widely utilized in mining and heavy industrial equipment. To further understand the research progress and development trends in the field of fault diagnosis for mining gearboxes, a clustering and visualization analysis of English literature was conducted using the Web of Science database and the CiteSpace method. The analysis revealed that the performance and reliability of gearboxes have consistently been focal points for researchers, with a significant community of authors contributing to this field. The co-occurrence and clustering of keywords indicated that the research content is concentrated on fault diagnosis and optimization design. Moreover, the field is evolving towards intelligent diagnostics. Future development trends should focus on the introduction of data-driven and knowledge-guided artificial intelligence algorithm models and explainable intelligent diagnostic technologies.
