DYNAMIC BALANCING METHOD AND APPARATUS
AN APPARATUS FOR REMOVING IMBALANCE IN A ROTATABLE MEMBER HAVING AN AXIS OF ROTATION INCLUDES FIRST, SECOND AND THIRD ANNULAR AND CONTINUOUS PATHWAYS (701, 702, 703) DISPOSED CONCENTRICALLY ABOUT THE AXIS OF ROTATION (716) OF THE ROTATABLE MEMBER, A FIRST PLURALITY OF MOVABLE WEIGHTS (704) POSITIONE...

Zusammenfassung: | AN APPARATUS FOR REMOVING IMBALANCE IN A ROTATABLE MEMBER HAVING AN AXIS OF ROTATION INCLUDES FIRST, SECOND AND THIRD ANNULAR AND CONTINUOUS PATHWAYS (701, 702, 703) DISPOSED CONCENTRICALLY ABOUT THE AXIS OF ROTATION (716) OF THE ROTATABLE MEMBER, A FIRST PLURALITY OF MOVABLE WEIGHTS (704) POSITIONED IN AND GUIDED BY THE FIRST PATHWAY (701), A SECOND PLURALITY OF MOVABLE WEIGHTS (704) POSITIONED IN AND GUIDED BY THE SECOND PATHWAY (702), AND A THIRD PLURALITY OF MOVABLE WEIGHTS (704) POSITIONED IN AND GUIDED BY THE THIRD PATHWAY (703), WITH EACH OF SAID FIRST, SECOND AND THIRD WEIGHTS BEING ALL SUBSTANTIALLY IDENTICAL IN SIZE. THE FIRST, SECOND AND THIRD WEIGHTS ARE FREELY MOVABLE WITHIN THE RESPECTIVE PATHWAYS DURING ROTATION OF THE APPARATUS AND ASSUME POSITIONS WITHIN THE RESPECTIVE PATHWAYS DURING ROTATION OF THE APPARATUS THAT COUNTERACT MBALANCE SO THAT THE IMBALANCE IS REMOVED BY THE WEIGHTS. THE FIRST, SECOND AND THIRD PATHWAYS ARE ALSO DISPOSED IN A COMMON PLANE. A LOCKING APPARATUS LOCKS AND RELEASES THE WEIGHTS AT PREDETERMINED ANGULAR VELOCITIES. FLUIDS OF DIFFERENT VISCOSITIES AND DIFFERENT RACE CONFIGURATIONS ARE ALSO USED TO VARY WEIGHT DYNAMICS. |
