Abstract:

The dynamics of a three-mass vibratory machine with the rectilinear translational motion of platforms and a vibration exciter in the form of a ball, roller, or pendulum auto-balancer have been analytically investigated. The existence of steady state motion modes of a vibratory machine that are close to two-frequency regimes has been established. At these motions, the loads in an auto-balancer create constant imbalance, cannot catch up with the rotor, and get stuck at a certain frequency. These loads work as the first vibration exciter, thereby exciting vibrations in resonance with the frequency at which loads get stuck. The second vibration exciter is formed by an unbalanced mass on the body of the auto-balancer. The mass rotates at the rotor's rotation frequency and excites faster vibrations with this frequency. The auto-balancer excites almost ideal two-frequency vibrations. Deviations from the two-frequency law are proportional to the ratio of the mass of the loads to the mass of the platform, which hosts the auto-balancer, and do not exceed 5 %. A three-mass vibratory machine has three resonant (natural) oscillation frequencies, q1, q2, q3 (q1
