Dynamics Analysis and Chaos Identification of Compound Pendulum Jaw Crusher with Joint Clearance

Abstract

A dynamic model of the working mechanism of a compound pendulum jaw crusher with clearance is established by the Lagrange multiplier method (LMD) based on the L-N contact force model and modified Coulomb friction force model. The correctness of the dynamic model is verified by MATLAB and Adams comparison simulation, and the best selection range of driving speed and clearance size is determined according to the laminating crushing theory (LCT). The effects of driving speed and clearance size on the shock and chaos phenomenon in the clearance mechanism are analyzed, as well as the vibration force applied to the foundation. The results show that, under the premise of meeting the requirements of crusher production capacity, increasing the driving speed and reducing the clearance size can weaken the shock and chaos phenomenon during the operation of the mechanism, improve the dynamic performance and enhance the operation stability, and the service life of foundation is prolonged with the stability of vibration force. Furthermore, the optimal combination of driving speed and clearance size is determined, which provides a theoretical basis for the optimization of the vibration force of the jaw crusher.
