Abstract
Mechanical performance analysis and experimental study of the mechanics of the four-star-type crank-linkage mechanism of the marine air compressor were carried out to improve the submerged floating performance and stealth performance of the underwater vehicle and to meet the demand of its large diving depth. Firstly, we analyzed the forces on the four-star-type crank-linkage mechanism, derived the inertia forces and moments of the crank-linkage mechanism, and proved the advantages of the four-star-type crank-linkage mechanism in balancing the second-order reciprocating inertia forces. The static strength of some parts was calibrated, and the modal analysis of the four-star-type crank-linkage mechanism was carried out. Second, a flexible crankshaft dynamics model was established to study the influence of kinematic pair parameters on the excitation characteristics of the main bearing. The mechanical performance analysis of the mechanics of the four-star-type crank-linkage with clearance was carried out. Finally, a test bench of four-star-type crank-linkage mechanism was designed and built independently to analyze the effects of clearance size and rotational speed on the acceleration of the motion and vibration acceleration of the slider. The results show that the first-order reciprocating inertia force and second-order reciprocating moment of inertia mainly exist in the four-star-type crank-linkage mechanism. The friction force of the revolving pair can suppress part of the resonance peak, but it will broaden the excitation band and excite high-frequency vibration. The larger the clearance of the four-star-type crank-linkage mechanism kinematic pair, the higher the crankshaft speed, the larger the acceleration amplitude, and the more concentrated the phase trajectory. The research results of this paper can guide the low-noise design of other types of air compressors, help to improve the overall level of marine air compressors, and show future directions for the vibration control of four-star-type air compressors.
