A Dynamic Analysis of the Rotary Cutting System of King Grass Shredder

摘要

With the rotary cutting system of king grass shredder as the research object, this paper established finite element models for rotating shaft, rotating shaft-belt pulley, rotating shaft-rotary cutting part and rotary cutting system and analyzed the influences of belt pulley and rotary cutting part on the dynamic characteristics of rotary cutting system. The results showed that the belt pulley and rotary cutting part had a great influence on the second order critical speed of rotary cutting system, and the rotary cutting part had a greater influence on the critical speed of first order forward precession than the belt pulley. Meanwhile, the critical speed of rotary cutting system that conformed to facts was calculated. There was a big difference between its first order and second order critical speeds, but the critical speed of first order backward precession was lower. Finally, it was found after analysis that the natural frequency of rotary cutting system was lower than the vibration frequency induced by belt drive, so the shredder can run safely.
