Abstract:
Vibration is a prevalent phenomenon in mechanical systems, often adversely affecting equipment performance and operational stability. To address this issue, this study proposes a novel three-directional vibration absorber, which provides stiffness in three orthogonal directions. The mechanical properties of the isolator are theoretically analyzed, focusing on its load-bearing capacity and working stroke, which are influenced by the initial configuration angle of the spring assembly. The dynamic characteristics of the proposed isolator are evaluated by comparing its peak dynamic displacement and force transmissibility rate with those of a conventional linear vibration isolator. The results indicate that under low excitation amplitudes, the three-directional isolator achieves a lower peak force transmissibility but exhibits a higher dynamic displacement peak compared to the linear isolator. Furthermore, a dynamic model incorporating Coulomb friction damping is developed to assess its impact on the system’s dynamic response. The findings reveal that increasing the equivalent Coulomb friction factor effectively reduces the dynamic response amplitude and force transmission rate below the resonance frequency but exacerbates these parameters beyond the resonance point. Finally, experimental studies were conducted on the isolator prototype. The results show that the static theoretical model can well reflect the static characteristics of the isolator and the dynamic theoretical model can effectively fit the dynamic test curves of the isolator. This research provides a theoretical foundation for the further optimization and practical application of three-directional vibration isolators. © 2025 by the authors.
