Mathematical modeling and computer simulation of locomotion conditions of vibration-driven robots

This paper investigates the dynamic behavior and locomotion characteristics of vibration-driven robots with wheeled chassis, focusing on the comparison of two types of vibration exciters: a solenoid-type actuator and a centrifugal (inertial) exciter.  The research methodology involves 3D modeling using SolidWorks software to design the robots, numerical modeling in Mathematica software to simulate their motion and predict kinematic characteristics, and computer simulation in SolidWorks Motion software to validate the modeling results.  The robots utilize overrunning clu

Optimization of Structure of Sorting Vibratory Separators

The problem of substantiation of operational efficiency of vibratory separators designed on the basis of vibratory hopper feeders with electromagnetic vibrations exciters and with conic working bowls is considered in the article. The complex of factors influencing the accuracy and productiveness of separation of coins and disk-shaped products on two or more fractions is overviewed. New models of structures for the effective solution of separation problems are proposed.

Two-mass Vibratory Conveyor-manipulator with Three-Component Electromagnetic Drive

Vibratory conveyor with three-component oscillations provides the opportunity to move the piece goods and details for any trajectory on a plane. Phase difference between independent horizontal (longitudinal or transverse) and vertical (normal) oscillations releases elliptical vibration of conveyor in plane perpendicular to the conveyor’s track. Elliptical vibrations allow increasing conveying velocity and inclination angle of conveyor’s track in comparison with the simplest linear vibrations.
