• Resumen

  • In this article, the multi-frequency synchronization characteristics and stability of a split drive double-body vibrating system with two rigid frames (RFs), driven by two pairs of counter-rotating exciters symmetrically mounted on two different RFs, are investigated in detail by theory, numeric, and simulation. Based on Lagrange’s equations, the differential equations of motion of the system are deduced. The theoretical criteria for implementing foundation frequency, double-frequency, and triple-frequency synchronization of two pairs of exciters are obtained by applying the asymptotic method. The stability criteria of the synchronous states are derived according to the Routh–Hurwitz criterion. Then, the synchronous and stable regions and stability ability coefficients of the system are analyzed qualitatively by numeric. The simulations are conducted to verify the validity of the theoretical methods used and the correctness of corresponding theoretical results. It is shown that, under the precondition of realizing the multi-frequency synchronization, the ideal working point of the system should be set in Region I to obtain the larger and more stable superposition vibration amplitude between two RFs in engineering. The present work can provide theory guidance for designing new types of vibrating equipment with two different driving frequencies.
