Abstract

The paper presents the possibilities of operating an innovative single-vibrator-driven vibratory conveyor [1] in the vicinity of the second resonance zone. The characteristics of operation on both ascending and descending slopes are presented. The differences in the suspension deflection of the additional mass (which is a dynamic eliminator) during operation before and after the resonance were analyzed. We proposed working on the descending slope of the second resonance in order to increase the durability of the device. This is because the amplitude of the suspension deflection of the additional mass is limited and, due to its high stiffness, is exposed to material fatigue. This is an unusual method of operation for conveyors because it carries certain risks, such as the risk of the device entering resonance on its own or the problem of maintaining constant angular velocity of the unbalanced masses. This paper presents both analytical and simulation studies, which were then confirmed on a laboratory stand designed and built by the authors.
