Analysis and research on the dynamic characteristics of shock absorber based on ADAMS

Abstract

In order to effectively improve safety and stability during transportation, a shock absorber with buffering and self-locking functions was designed. Based on the rigid flexible coupling technology, the working state and dynamic response of the shock absorber were simulated and analyzed. The linear spring was treated as a flexible body, and the cam button, guide pillar, and base were treated as rigid bodies. The modal neutral files required for the rigid flexible coupling dynamic analysis were generated. Based on ADAMS, a dynamic simulation model was established, replacing a part of the rigid model with a flexible model and conducting load response analysis on it. To further improve the vibration reduction effect, the performance of the contact material of the shock absorber was analyzed. Through the calculation of dynamic characteristics, it could be known that the self-locking mechanism had no dead points, and the vibration reduction force response stability was high, meeting the working requirements.
