Zusammenfassung:An apparatus for oscillating a mass at a plurality of selective frequencies includes a source of compressible fluid and a cylinder having a bore filled with the compressible fluid. The cylinder includes a port opening to the bore, the port being connected to the source of compressible fluid. A piston slides in the bore to define a chamber. The piston is operably connected to the fluid mass to oscillate the mass. An average volume of the chamber is adjusted to change the frequency of the oscillating mass.
