Description
Summary:The hydro pneumatic isolation (HPI) of the cab combined by the high static stiffness and nonlinear viscous damping of the pneumatic isolation; and nonlinear adjustable damping of the hydraulic isolation are proposed. Based on the simulation and experimental studies, a nonlinear dynamic model of the soil compactor interacting with the deformable terrains is built to analyze the low frequency ride comfort of the HPI. The HPI’s performance for improving the ride comfort and health of the driver is evaluated via both the power-spectral-density and root-mean-square of acceleration responses of the driver’s seat heave, pitching and rolling cab angles. The research results show that the HPI’s characteristics with high static stiffness and nonlinear damping have an obvious impact on reducing low frequency vibration and controlling the cab shake of the vehicle in comparison with the traditional rubber mounts.
