Dynamic characteristics and experimental study of double layer vibration isolation system

To improve the isolation ability of the existing equipment for low-frequency line spectrum, this paper presents an electromagnetic double-layer vibration isolation system (ED-VIS) for the first time. The negative and positive stiffness values of the ED-VIS are provided by the electromagnet and the linear spring, respectively. To better analyze the vibration isolation system designed in this paper, the dynamic model of the ED-VIS is established, and the effects of damping ratio, excitation force amplitude, and mass ratio on the force transmissibility feature of the isolator are analyzed. Then, the ED-VIS test bench is built, and the low-frequency vibration isolation capability of the ED-VIS is measured by a frequency sweep test. According to the sweep test results, a method to improve the low-frequency vibration isolation capability of the isolator is proposed. Finally, the reliability of the system in isolating low-frequency vibration is verified. The results show that compared with the equivalent linear vibration isolation system, ED-VIS is more sensitive to low-frequency vibration and has a lower initial vibration isolation frequency. Therefore, this paper designs the ED-VIS has better low-frequency vibration isolation performance.
