METHOD FOR MONITORING THE STATE OF MECHANICAL COMPONENTS ON A SHAFT LINE, ASSOCIATED MONITORING DEVICE AND SYSTEM

The invention relates to a method for monitoring the state of mechanical components such as bearings and gears on a shaft line equipping a rotating machine. Said method includes a step of obtaining at least one measurement yc[k] of the absolute acceleration of the shaft, as well as a set of steps of: obtaining a value fr[k] of the rotational frequency of the shaft, determining a matrix H[k] making it possible to define a state model described by: [k+1]=x[k]+w[k]etY[k]=[(y_c [k])¦SE[k]]=H[k]×x[k]+v[k], determining an estimator of the vector x[k] based on data from the state model, said set of steps further including, for at least one mechanical component, steps of: determining, from said estimator, a quantity characteristic of a contribution of said component to the vector Y[k], comparing said quantity with a threshold, detecting a possible defect of said at least one mechanical component.
