TRANSPORT FEATURES OF A NEW, SELF-ATTUNED CONVEYOR
Abstract
The new vibratory conveyor destined for the accurate dosing of materials was investigated in the present work. The possibilities of the system to transport materials in the circum-resonant zone were tested analytically, as well as by simulations. The optimal work point of the system, which allowed a decrease in the amplitude of eliminator vibrations on its suspension due to operations on the resonance slope, was determined. Transport velocities depending on the excitation frequency and feed mass were determined by simulations. The results were verified on the conveyor of industrial dimensions designed and built in accordance with the patent application.
