Dynamic Analysis of Vibrating Sorter and Description of Optical Methods for Experimental Verification

摘要

The aim of this work is to determine the system of equations of motion for laboratory vibrating sorter mechanism. Description of motion and experimental verification is useful for designing of industrial vibrating sorters. These sorters are mostly used for sorting oil seeds in oil pressing industry. The mechanism which is described in this work is part of a laboratory testing circuit, where the methodology of designing of industrial machines is being developed. In this case, the sorter is placed on linear compression springs for easier dynamic modeling. The model of vibrating sorter is considered as a nonlinear two bodies system with 6 degrees of freedom and its solution leads to application of numerical solver using software MATLAB. In the second part of this work, the experimental measurement using optical methods is described. There are placed markers to be captured with the camera. With the help of software MATLAB and its image processing toolbox, the displacement of markers is determined and the correctness of dynamic analysis can be verified.
