[0002] Vibration phenomena widely occur in engineering practice. Generally, vibration can cause damage to the system, and vibrations of specific frequencies can also affect human health. Therefore, the need for vibration damping has existed for a long time. A shock absorber includes an elastic element and / or a damping element. The elastic element is used to provide an elastic force, and the damping element is used to absorb vibration energy. The shock absorber can effectively reduce the vibration amplitude, so it is widely used in various machines.

[0003] For shock-absorbing devices that consider both axial vibration and torsional vibration simultaneously, in the prior art, a cylindrical rubber shock-absorbing structure is adopted, which makes it difficult to achieve balance between axial and torsional vibrations, affecting the service life and shock-absorbing performance of the rubber shock absorber. Therefore, the difficulty in designing a rubber shock absorber lies in how to scientifically and reasonably design the distribution of the damping material in space under the limitations of cost and existing materials, so that while the suppression of axial vibration meets the requirements, the resonance frequencies in other directions are not too soft.

The term "comprising" in the specification and claims of the present invention and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion.

[0046] Embodiment 1

[0047] As Figure 1 - Figure 2 shown, a shock absorber is provided, which includes an output rod 1, an outer cylinder 2, an inner cylinder 3, and a shock-absorbing structure 4; the output rod 1 is used to connect the device to be shock-absorbed, one end of the output rod 1 is inserted into the outer cylinder 2, and the inserted end can swing at a certain angle and can also have a certain amount of telescoping relative to the outer cylinder 2. The existence of the swing angle is mainly used to absorb torsional vibration. Therefore, the swing angle is not likely to be too large and can be determined according to expert experience; the end of the output rod 1 extending into the outer cylinder 2 is connected to the inner cylinder 3; the shock-absorbing structure 4 includes a number of damping bodies 41 with a rotationally symmetric structure; the inner wall of each damping body 41 is connected to the outer wall of the inner cylinder 3, and the outer wall of each damping body 41 is connected to the inner wall of the outer cylinder 2. The damping bodies 41 are fixed to the inner cylinder 3 and the outer cylinder 2 by adhesive.

[0048] As Figure 3 - Figure 5 shown, in this embodiment, there are three, four, or six damping bodies 41. That is, when there are three damping bodies 41, the included angle between adjacent damping bodies 41 is 120°; when there are four damping bodies 41, the included angle between adjacent damping bodies 41 is 90°; when there are six damping bodies 41, the included angle between adjacent damping bodies 41 is 60°.

[0049] In this embodiment, the shock-absorbing structure 4 has two layers and is respectively located at both axial ends of the inner cylinder 3. In some other embodiments, the shock-absorbing structure 4 can also have only one layer, which can be selected according to the usage requirements.

[0050] In this embodiment, the inner cylinder 3 is hollow, and the cross-section of the inner cylinder 3 is a hollow hexagon or a ring; the output rod 1 is connected to the inner cylinder 3 by threads; of course, in some other embodiments, the inner cylinder 3 can also be solid.

[0051] In this embodiment, both the outer cylinder 2 and the inner cylinder 3 are made of metal, and the damping body 41 is made of butyl rubber or nitrile rubber; the outer cylinder 2 includes an input end cover 21, an output end cover 22 and a cylinder body 23; the input end cover 21 and the output end cover 22 are respectively detachably connected to both ends of the cylinder body 23; the output rod 1 passes through the output end cover 22. In order to further improve the vibration damping effect, buffer rubbers 25 are provided on the inner end faces of the output end cover 22 and the input end cover 21. The buffer rubber 25 located between the inner cylinder 3 and the output end cover 22 can be in the shape of a disc, and the buffer rubber 25 located between the inner cylinder 3 and the input end cover 21 is in a ring structure. In order to facilitate connection with the vibration source, the input end cover 21 is connected with an input flange 24.

[0052] The working process of this application is as follows: Connect the vibration source to the input flange 24, the flange connects the input end cover 21, the input end cover 21 and the output end cover 22 are connected to the cylinder body 23 to form the outer cylinder 2, the damping body 41 is adhered between the inner cylinder 3 and the outer cylinder 2, the output rod 1 is connected to the device to be vibration-damped. When the vibration source generates axial vibration and torsional vibration, the input end cover 21 undergoes torsion or axial movement, thereby driving the damping body 41 to undergo torsion and axial displacement. Under the damping action of the damping body 41, the vibration decays, so that the device to be vibration-damped undergoes vibration decay.

[0053] Based on the axial stiffness and torsional stiffness of the balanced vibration damping structure 4, to improve stability, optimize the vibration damping effect, and extend the service life. As a preference, through simulation, it is learned that the inner cylinder 3 is hollow and there are three damping bodies 41. At this time, the natural frequency f of torsional vibration r After testing, it can reach 5.8 Hz, and the natural frequency f of axial vibration a Can reach 16.6 Hz, and the balance effect of axial stiffness and torsional stiffness is the best; when there are four damping bodies 41, at this time, the natural frequency f of torsional vibration r After testing, it can reach 6.7 Hz, and the natural frequency f of axial vibration a Can reach 19.3 Hz, and the balance effect is the second best. When there are six damping bodies 41, at this time, the natural frequency f of torsional vibration r After testing, it can reach 8 Hz, and the natural frequency f of axial vibration a Can reach 23.4 Hz, and the balance effect is relatively the worst. The shock absorber of this application can solve the vibration balance problem in the axial and torsional directions, reasonably arrange the distribution and size of the damping body 41, is convenient for processing, and has low cost.

[0054] Embodiment 2

[0055] As Figure 6 shown, a design method of a shock absorber is provided. Based on the shock absorber of Embodiment 1, it includes the following steps:

[0056] S1: According to the usage environment of the shock absorber, obtain the basic ranges of the material properties, quantity, and geometric parameters {a, b, h} of the damping body 41.

[0057] The material properties of the damping body 41 include the type of material and the density of the material; the quantity of the damping body 41 is usually three, four, or six.

[0058] S2: Use the genetic algorithm to find the optimal set of geometric parameters {a best , b best , h best} of the damping body 41 within the basic ranges of the geometric parameters; during the process of finding the optimal set of geometric parameters of the damping body 41, determine the fitness function f(h, a, b) according to the balance of the axial stiffness and torsional stiffness of the damping body 41;

[0059]

[0060] wherein, a and b are respectively the length and width of the damping body 41 in the cross-section of the inner cylinder 3, and h is the thickness of the damping body 41 in the axial section of the inner cylinder 3; f r is the natural frequency of torsional vibration, and f a is the natural frequency of axial vibration.

[0061] Step S2 specifically includes:

[0062] S2.1: Encode the geometric parameters {a, b, h} into a binary string α i = C[{a i , b i , h i}] according to the defined encoding rule C.

[0063] The encoding rule can be determined according to the prior art.

[0064] S2.2: Randomly generate an initial population P0 = {α1, α2, α3, …, α n} within the basic ranges of the geometric parameters {a, b, h}, where the initial population includes multiple individuals, and each individual represents a combination of geometric dimensions.

[0065] S2.3: Calculate the fitness value of each individual in the current population according to the constructed fitness function;

[0066] S2.4: According to the set crossover probability, reproduction rule, and mutation rule, in each iteration, after performing fitness selection, crossover, and mutation operations, generate a new population and calculate the fitness value of each individual in the new population;

[0067] The crossover probability, reproduction rule, and mutation rule can be determined according to the prior art. Optionally, the reproduction rule can be to randomly select two surviving individuals from the previous generation for crossover and then perform mutation. For binary encoding, the crossover rule generally uses single-point crossover, and the mutation rule generally selects bit-flip mutation. The selection rule can be the roulette wheel selection method or the ranking selection method. The termination condition can generally be achieved by explicitly iterating a certain number of generations. The roulette wheel selection method designs the survival probability of an individual based on the fitness function, so that individuals with a higher fitness have a greater probability of surviving to the next generation, while individuals with a lower fitness function are more likely to be eliminated. At the same time, since it ensures that individuals with a lower fitness function also have a certain probability of being preserved, this method can often jump out of the local optimal solution, but its convergence speed is relatively low. The ranking selection method sorts according to the size of the fitness function and selects the largest several individuals to survive to the next iteration. This method has a fast convergence speed, but whether it can jump out of the local optimal solution depends only on a relatively good initial population, and the selection rule can be chosen according to actual needs.

[0068] S2.5: Evaluate and select the new population according to the fitness value, eliminate individuals with low fitness, and retain individuals with high fitness. After meeting the iteration termination condition, obtain the current optimal solution α best , and according to the set decoding rule C -1 , decode the optimal solution α best , to obtain the optimal parameter combination {a best , b best , h best};

[0069] Among them, when calculating the fitness value of each individual in steps S2.3 and S2.4, decode the binary string α i into the parameter combination {ai, bi, hi}, and establish a finite element model according to the parameter combination {ai, bi, hi} to calculate the natural frequency f r of torsional vibration and the natural frequency f a of axial vibration. The method of establishing the finite element model refers to the prior art. Specifically, it can directly use existing software, such as ANSYS for modeling.

[0070] When there are three damping bodies 41, apply forces F with equal values and the same direction to each damping body 41 respectively. At this time, the damping body 41 undergoes axial vibration, and the natural frequency f a of the axial vibration is:

[0071]

[0072] When there are three damping bodies 41, equal forces F are applied to each damping body 41 respectively, and the direction of the force on the current damping body 41 is different from that of the other two damping bodies 41. At this time, the current damping body 41 undergoes torsional vibration, and the natural frequency f of the torsional vibration r is:

[0073]

[0074] where k α is the stiffness of the axial vibration, m is the mass of the device to be vibration-damped; l is the distance between the centroid of the inner cylinder 3 and the centroid of the device to be vibration-damped, Δh is the displacement of the damping body 41 in the axial direction of the inner cylinder 3 when the damping body 41 undergoes axial vibration, Δx is the lateral displacement between the current damping body 41 and the adjacent damping body 41 when the damping body 41 undergoes torsional vibration, and Δα is the torsional angle of the damping body 41 when the damping body 41 undergoes torsional vibration. Among them, Δh, Δx, and Δα are affected by the material properties of the rubber damping body 41 and are obtained through existing measurement techniques.

[0075] Specifically, when establishing a finite element model, for a linearly elastic material, the stiffness of a specific vibration mode can be obtained by solving the static deformation of the system in the corresponding direction caused by a unit external load. Therefore, by adding a unit axial force at the symmetric position of the vibration-damping structure 4 to obtain the axial displacement during the axial vibration of the damping body 41, the natural frequency of the axial vibration can be calculated. For the calculation of the natural frequency of torsional vibration, since a torque cannot be applied to the damping body 41 element. Therefore, by adding unit concentrated loads in different directions at relevant positions inside the vibration-damping structure 4 to achieve torsion, and then calculating the natural frequency of torsional vibration by solving the rotation under the external load.

[0076] Example 3

[0077] A specific example of a design method for a shock absorber is provided. The vibration-damping structure 4 is double-layered, and each vibration-damping structure 4 includes three damping bodies 41. The inner cylinder 3 is hollow, and the cross-sectional shape is a hollow hexagonal structure.

[0078] The fitness function of this example is:

[0079] where the geometric parameter range of each damping body is shown in Table 1 below:

[0080] Table 1 Geometric parameter range of each damping body

[0081] <![CDATA[h0]]> <![CDATA[h1]]> <![CDATA[b0]]> <![CDATA[b1]]> <![CDATA[a0]]> <![CDATA[a1]]> 8mm 15mm 15mm 20mm 18mm 22mm

[0082] Within the range of the geometric parameters of each damping body 41, the genetic algorithm is used to find the optimal set of geometric parameters of the damping body 41.

[0083] Specifically, the coding rule is defined as follows:

[0084]

[0085] Among them, the function Round(x) represents the integer closest to x, and the function Bin(x) represents the integer x within 0 to 15 in 4-bit binary coding. For example:

[0086] C(10.8, 18.3, 18.1) = {0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1}

[0087] C(13.6, 15.6, 20.9) = {1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1}

[0088] The number of surviving individuals in each iteration N = 3. Each time reproduction occurs, 2 individuals are randomly selected from the individuals that survived in the previous generation for crossover and mutation, and one of them is randomly selected. The above process is repeated 6 times.

[0089] Crossover rule: In this example, midpoint crossover is selected.

[0090] Mutation rule: In this example, flip mutation is selected, and the mutation probability is fixed at 0.05.

[0091] Selection rule: In this example, the selection method is sorting selection.

[0092] Given the following initial population:

[0093] {0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1}, {1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1}, {1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1}

[0094] Termination condition: In this example, the calculation is terminated randomly after 20 generations of iteration.

[0095] Among them, when calculating the fitness value in each iteration, the axial vibration mode shape and torsional vibration mode shape obtained by using the finite element analysis software are used. Through the mode shape, it can be found that the contributions of the damping bodies 41 at different positions to the stiffness of the axial vibration and torsional vibration are different. For torsional vibration, the deformation of the damping body 41 connected to the internal structure is smaller than that of the material connected to the outer shell. On the contrary, for axial vibration, the deformation of the damping body 41 connected to the inner cylinder 3 is the same as that of the material connected to the outer shell. Based on this, removing the central part of the inner cylinder 3 can effectively achieve the balance between the torsional vibration natural frequency and the axial vibration natural frequency.

[0096] Use the finite element software to construct the model of the vibration damping structure 4, as Figure 7 - Figure 9As shown, label the numbers of the nodes of the vibration damping structure 4; Considering geometric symmetry, apply an axial force of 1 unit vertically upward to nodes 2, 14, and 26 respectively. By calculating the axial displacement (denoted as Δh) at node 2, the natural frequency of axial vibration can be calculated. Next, apply an axial force of 2 units downward at node 2, and apply an axial force of 1 unit upward at nodes 14 and 26. This combination produces a torsional effect, and the natural frequency of torsional vibration is calculated by measuring the deflection angle (denoted as Δα) of the internal structure.

[0097] The stiffness of axial vibration is: k α = 3F / Δh, and the natural frequency of axial vibration is:

[0098]

[0099] Where, m represents the mass of the device to be vibration-damped, and Δh represents the displacement of the rubber body 41 in the axial direction of the inner cylinder 3 when the damping body 41 undergoes axial vibration, where. F = 1N. Similarly, the natural frequency of torsional vibration can be calculated as follows:

[0100]

[0101] Where. Δx = |x(2) - x(14)|. x(2) is Figure 7 the abscissa value of the 2nd node in Figure 7 and x(14) is

[0102] When the iteration termination condition is reached, the optimal size combination obtained by calculation is: h = 11.73mm, b = 16mm, a = 22mm.
