Vibration Transmission Characteristics and Detection Method of Bilateral Chain Drive of Multicylinders

Abstract

The transmission modes of multiple rotating parts on the combine harvester are complex and diverse, and the excitation vibrations are coupled with each other, which makes it difficult to dynamically balance the parallel rotating bodies on-site. In order to obtain the influence of the multicylinder transmission system on the vibration response and transmission characteristics of the whole machine providing an experimental basis for the overall balance of the multicylinder system, this paper tested and analyzed the vibration response and shaft vibration state of the system under different transmission modes. On this basis, the influence of chain drive and different transmission modes on the vibration characteristics of the multicylinder was analyzed. Through the tests of the vibration response of the multicylinder frame, the main transfer path of the vibration of each excitation source was analyzed. The results showed that the transmission chain and transmission mode would affect the stiffness, damping, and vibration response of the cylinder fundamental frequency of the chain transmission system on both sides of the multicylinder. The contribution rate of different transmission modes and rotation speeds to the vibration at the fundamental frequency of the multicylinder was 5%∼30%, which would also cause the deflection angle of the roller axis track to change from 1° to 5°. The frame was the main path of vibration transmission of bilateral chain drive of the multicylinder system, and the vibration transmission efficiency of the frame under different frequencies can reach more than 80%. In addition, the vibration response of each cylinder would also be transmitted to each bearing seat position of the multicylinder through the frame.
