Abstract

Rubber isolator is commonly used as vibration isolation device for piston pump, and the vibration of piston pump can be effectively reduced by adjusting the dynamic stiffness of rubber isolator. In this paper, in order to study the effect of rubber isolator's dynamic stiffness on the dynamic of seawater hydraulic piston pump (SWHPP), four kinds of rubber isolators with different dynamic stiffness were selected. An experimental modal analysis (EMA) experiment was conducted to study the influence of rubber isolator's dynamic stiffness on the natural frequency of SWHPP. The experimental results indicated that the natural frequency of the pump structure decreased as the dynamic stiffness of rubber isolator increased. Then, the influence of the rubber isolator's dynamic stiffness on the vibration of SWHPP was further studied, and conclusions can be obtained that: the vibration level of the pump decreases with the dynamic stiffness of rubber isolator increases. For the four kinds of rubber isolators, when the dynamic stiffness of rubber isolator is 5800N/cm, the vibration reduction effect of the isolator is the best, which reaching 38%. In addition, the dynamic stiffness of rubber isolator mainly affects the vibration of the pump in the frequency of 0–20 Hz.
