A failure diagnosis strategy is proposed in this paper based on fault tree analysis method. The fault tree analytical method draws breechblock failure and a variety of possible events for the failure occurrence into a tree failure chart. A fault tree of misfire fault of breechblock system is illustrated when simultaneously considering the fault probability and time cost of ngsearch basic events. After the fault tree of misfire established, the probability-time means is used to analyze fault logic of misfire, evaluate the search order of fault alternatives, and build the flow chart of the fault diagnosis. Result shows that the fault tree analysis is an effective means for breechblock fault diagnosis and using probability-time means can improve the accuracy of the result of fault search and the feasibility of fault diagnosis.
