Two kinds of full-float tractor cab suspension systems based on double crank mechanism and double rocking bar mechanism respectively for a power tractor safety cab was designed. CAD model of the tractor with cab was modeled by using Pro/E. The model was import into ADAMS, and virtual prototype of the tractor with cab suspension system was established. When stiffness and damping of tyres were set fixed, two kinds of suspension system were mounted to the cab. The vibration isolation performance of the two kinds of tractor cab suspension system was studied respectively when stiffness of cab suspension system changed from 20 N/mm to 200N/mm. Both harmonic excitation and a random road roughness excitation were applied vertically to the places where the tyres were mounted. The random road roughness excitation was simulated by using MATLAB/simulink. The simulation results showed that the comfort of the full-float tractor cab with suspension based on double rocking bar mechanism was better than the cab with suspension based on double crank bar mechanism. Therefore, the analysis results provided a basis for designing mechanism of full-float cab suspension system for power tractors.

Taking single degree of freedom vibration isolation system under simple harmonic excitation as an example, and considering the energy, the vibration isolation performance in different conditions was studied theoretically and numerically. The results shows that when the simple harmonic excitation import energy is definite, the vibration isolation performance at the primary harmonic frequency of the nonlinear vibration isolation system is better than that of the linear system, and the vibration isolation performance of the nonlinear vibration isolation system in chaotic vibration state is much better than that in non-chaotic vibration state. For the same isolated object, if can let the vibration isolation system vibrate chaotically, the system will possess the best isolation performance at the primary frequency.

This paper presents an experimental study on the vibration isolation performance of weft-knitted spacer fabrics under forced harmonic excitation. The weft-knitted spacer fabrics with two different thicknesses were first designed by varying the linking distance of the spacer monofilament and fabricated using an electronic flat knitting machine. Then, their vibration isolation performance was tested under forced vibration condition via sinusoidal sweeps from low to high frequencies. The typical acceleration transmissibility curve and effects of fabric thickness, load mass and excitation level were discussed in detail. The results obtained show that the thicker spacer fabric has a lower resonance frequency than the thinner fabric due to lower stiffness, and thus can isolate the vibration at a lower frequency level. The results also show that changing the load mass and excitation level changes the loading conditions of the fabric structure, and thus also changes fabric stiffness and vibration isolation performance due to nonlinear behavior of spacer fabrics. It is expected that this study could provide some useful information to promote the application of weft-knitted spacer fabrics for vibration isolation.

In this study, to improve the vibration isolation performance of a cab seat and the ride comfort of the driver, we propose a mathematical model for a seat suspension system of a construction machinery cab based on a negative stiffness structure (NSS). First, a static analysis of a seat suspension system is conducted and the different parameters and their influences on the dynamic stiffness are discussed. Thereby, the ideal configuration parameter range of the suspension system is obtained. Moreover, the nonlinear dynamic model of the designed seat suspension system is established. The frequency response and the stability are analyzed by using the HBM method and numerical simulation. The vibration transmissibility characteristics and vibration suppression effects of the seat suspension system are presented in detail. The results show that, as compared with a quasi-zero-stiffness system, the QZS-IE system has higher vibration suppression advantages under large excitation and small damping, as well as lower transmissibility and a wider vibration isolation frequency range. In addition, an inerter element with a larger mass ratio and relatively shorter distance ratio is better for vibration isolation performance of the QZS-IE system in a practical engineering application. The results of this study provide a scientific basis for the design and improvement of a seat suspension system.

In order to improve the vibration isolation performance of cab seat and ride comfort of the driver, a seat suspension structure of construction machinery cab is proposed based on negative stiffness structure (NSS) in this paper. The influences of different parameters of suspension system on dynamic stiffness are analyzed. The configuration parameter range of suspension system is obtained. Then, the nonlinear dynamic equation of the seat suspension system is established and the NSS optimization model is proposed. The vibration transmissibility characteristics of suspension structure are analyzed by different methods. The results show that the displacement and acceleration amplitude of optimized seat suspension system are obviously reduced, and the VDV and RMS in the vertical vibration direction for the seat are respectively decreased by 87% and 86%. The vibration transmissibility rate SEAT and the Ttrans are both decreased. Moreover, the peak frequencies of the vibration transmitted to the driver are not near the key frequency values which are easy to cause human discomfort. It indicates that the design of seat suspension system has no effect on the health condition of the driver after being vibrated. The advantages of vibration isolation performance of the designed NSS suspension system are demonstrated, improving the driver’s ride comfort and the working environment.

The vibration isolation performance of a PC sandwich plate with periodic hollow tube core is investigated experimentally and numerically. The experiment results reveal that there exist vibration attenuation zones in acceleration frequency responses which can be improved by increasing the number of periods or tuning some structure parameters. The presence of soft fillers shifts the attenuation zone to lower frequencies and enhances the capability of vibration isolation to some extent. Dispersion relations and acceleration frequency responses are calculated by finite element method using COMSOL MULTIPHYSICS. The attenuation zones obtained by experiments fit well with that by simulations, and both are consistent with the band gap in dispersion relations. The numerical and experimental studies in the present paper show that this PC sandwich plate exhibits a good performance on vibration isolation in low frequency ranges, which will provide some useful references for relevant research and potential applications in vibration propagation manipulations.

Nonobstructive particle damping (NOPD) is a novel passive control technology with strong nonlinear-damping. Many scholars put effort into the research on the internal mechanism of NOPD. In contrast, the application of NOPD to engineering has not received much research effort. A theoretical model based on the principle of gas–solid flows, which is employed to evaluate damping effect of NOPD and to predict dynamic response of a machine rack by a co-simulation approach, is established in this paper. In view of the difference between damping effect acting on the lateral and bottom of NOPD holes directly, total damping force is divided into lateral damping force and bottom damping force according to the Janssen theory of stress changed direction. Moreover, NOPD technology is applied to a machine rack for discussing its vibration isolation performance. The results indicate that NOPD technology can suppress the intense vibration, especially between 4000 Hz and 8000 Hz. It is noted that the theoretical model of NOPD can accurately predict the dynamic response of the machine rack with NOPD. The 1/3 Octave vibration energy spectrum indicates that NOPD technics can dissipate the vibration energy of the machine rack at full frequency, especially in 31.5 Hz, and attenuation up to 39.75 dB.
