TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of ship propulsion, in particular to a longitudinal vibration isolation device for a propulsion shafting and a design method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Under low-speed operating conditions, the noise of the propulsion system becomes one of the main noise sources affecting the acoustic environment of the ship. From the characteristics of the excitation source, the excitation force generated by the operation of the propeller is transmitted to the ship body through the shafting, inducing the vibration of the ship body structure and radiating noise. Among them, compared with the revolving vibration excitation force, the propeller longitudinal excitation force dominates in all directions and has a more significant effect on the initiation of the ship body vibration noise.
[0003] In the traditional technology, the control of the longitudinal vibration of the ship propulsion shafting is mainly divided into two categories: active control method and passive control method. For the active control method, the publication number CN113153962B discloses a shafting longitudinal vibration active control method based on an electromagnetic actuator, which realizes the suppression of the shafting longitudinal vibration by monitoring the vibration signal in real time and applying a reverse control force. For the passive control method, it can be further divided into two technical approaches: dynamic vibration absorption and vibration isolation. In the dynamic vibration absorber technology, additional substructures can be introduced to absorb and dissipate vibration energy; in the vibration isolation technology, the main focus is on the optimization design of the vibration isolation structure of the thrust bearing.
[0004] However, in the active control technology, although it has dynamic adjustment capability, the method has strict requirements for the stability and reliability of the control system, and the environmental adaptability is weak. In complex working conditions, the propulsion shafting longitudinal vibration may even be intensified due to the mismatch of control parameters, which limits the engineering application range. In the passive control scheme of the dynamic vibration absorber, whether it is directly arranged on the shafting body or the thrust bearing base, in order to achieve the ideal vibration absorption effect, the dynamic vibration absorber often needs to have a large additional mass; this design requirement is in sharp conflict with the development trend of lightweight and compactness of ship equipment, and it is difficult to meet the strict requirements of overall arrangement of modern ships for weight control. In the vibration isolation technology path, the existing scheme mostly adopts the design idea of integrating vibration isolation elements inside the thrust bearing; this mode significantly increases the structural complexity and overall size of the thrust bearing, which is contrary to the demand of space intensive utilization of the ship; on the other hand, the introduction of vibration isolation elements may change the stress distribution and dynamic characteristics of the thrust bearing, which has a potential impact on its operation reliability, restricting the engineering landing of the technology. SUMMARY
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a propulsion shaft longitudinal vibration isolation device and a design method thereof, which can avoid interference with the original structure and performance of the thrust bearing, simplify the overall structure, avoid the addition of extra mass on the shafting, avoid the adverse effects on the dynamic characteristics of the shafting, and meet the lightweight design requirements.

This effectively reduces the longitudinal natural frequency of the propulsion shaft system, ensuring it avoids the resonant frequency band within its operating speed range, meeting preset vibration isolation performance indicators, and achieving highly efficient suppression of longitudinal vibration in the propulsion shaft system.

Detailed Implementation
[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.
[0021] For example, Figure 1 This is an axial view of a longitudinal vibration isolation device for a propulsion shaft system provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 2 This is a front view of a longitudinal vibration isolation device for a propulsion shaft provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 3 This is a side view of a longitudinal vibration isolation device for a propulsion shaft system provided in an embodiment of this application. Figures 1-3 As shown, the longitudinal vibration isolation device for the propulsion shaft system includes: a raceway 1, a rolling bearing 2, a friction cam 3, a force sensor 4, and a support mechanism 5; the raceway 1 is fixedly connected to the outer ring of the rolling bearing 2; the inner ring of the rolling bearing 2 is rigidly fixed to the propulsion shaft system to rotate synchronously with the propulsion shaft system; the friction cam 3 is mounted on the support mechanism 5 and is in close contact with the raceway 1 under the action of the support mechanism 5; the support mechanism 5 is mounted on the base of the hull; the force sensor 4 is located below the friction cam 3 and is used to monitor the value of the contact force in real time; when the propulsion shaft system experiences longitudinal vibration, the vibration is transmitted to the raceway 1 through the rolling bearing 2 and causes the raceway 1 to generate longitudinal displacement, so that a longitudinal relative sliding is formed between the raceway 1 and the friction cam 3.
[0022] In this embodiment, the surface profile curve of raceway 1 needs to be determined through precise dynamic modeling and parameter optimization, and it is a key structure for achieving vibration isolation. The rolling bearing 2, capable of bearing thrust, can be an angular contact ball bearing or a tapered roller bearing, bearing the axial force transmitted by the shaft system. The friction protrusion 3, as the core element for force transmission and interaction, is an arc surface with a radius to be designed. The force sensor 4 is used to monitor contact force parameters in real time. The support mechanism 5 provides a controllable preload driving force. Raceway 1 is fixedly connected to the outer ring of the rolling bearing 2, and the friction protrusion 3 forms a tight contact with raceway 1 under the driving force of the support mechanism 5. The entire device is installed on the ship's base using jacks to ensure structural stability.
[0023] For example, the profile curve of the raceway is used to control the contact force exerted by the friction protrusion on the raceway, so that a mechanical coupling relationship is formed between the longitudinal component of the contact force acting on the raceway and the axial force transmitted by the thrust bearing. This coupling effect can effectively reduce the longitudinal natural frequency of the propulsion shaft system, ensuring that it avoids the resonant frequency band within the operating speed range, meeting the preset vibration isolation performance indicators, and ultimately achieving efficient suppression of longitudinal vibration of the propulsion shaft system.
[0024] For example, rolling bearings are used to bear the axial force transmitted by the shaft system. Rolling bearings are either angular contact ball bearings or tapered roller bearings.
[0025] For example, the support mechanism includes: a jack or a hydraulic cylinder.
[0026] For example, the profile curve of the raceway is related to at least one of the following: the installation position of the longitudinal vibration isolation device of the propulsion shaft system on the shaft system; the vibration isolation initiation frequency of the propulsion shaft system; the mass of the first longitudinal vibration mode of the propulsion shaft system; the stiffness of the first longitudinal vibration mode of the propulsion shaft system; the mode shape value of the first mode of the longitudinal vibration isolation device of the propulsion shaft system at the installation position on the shaft system; the support stiffness of the support mechanism; the output force of the support mechanism; the radius of the friction protrusion; and the longitudinal vibration displacement of the propulsion shaft system at the installation position of the longitudinal vibration isolation device of the propulsion shaft system.
[0027] For example, Figure 4 This is an installation diagram of a longitudinal vibration isolation device for a propulsion shaft system provided in an embodiment of this application. When the propulsion shaft system experiences longitudinal vibration, the vibration is transmitted to the raceway 1 through the rolling bearing 2, causing the raceway 1 to generate longitudinal displacement, thereby causing longitudinal relative sliding between the raceway 1 and the friction protrusion 3.
[0028] The implementation principle of this embodiment is to break through the structural dependence of traditional devices on shaft systems or thrust bearings by synergistically optimizing structural parameters and mechanical properties, thus providing a new technical paradigm for longitudinal vibration control of propulsion shaft systems.
[0029] This application also provides a design method for a longitudinal vibration isolation device for a propulsion shaft system. The method includes: determining the installation position of the longitudinal vibration isolation device on the propulsion shaft system; constructing a finite element model of the longitudinal vibration of the propulsion shaft system, and determining the first-order longitudinal vibration modal mass, first-order longitudinal vibration modal stiffness, and first-order mode shape value at the installation position of the isolation device through simulation of the finite element model; determining the initial frequency of the propulsion shaft system isolation; determining the modal stiffness of the propulsion shaft system after installing the longitudinal vibration isolation device based on the initial isolation frequency; and determining the modal stiffness of the propulsion shaft system through experimental testing. The supporting stiffness and output force of the supporting mechanism are determined; the radius of the friction protrusion is determined; based on the profile curve of the raceway and the installation position of the longitudinal vibration isolation device of the propulsion shaft system on the shaft system, the vibration isolation initiation frequency of the propulsion shaft system, the mass of the first longitudinal vibration mode of the propulsion shaft system, the stiffness of the first longitudinal vibration mode of the propulsion shaft system, the mode shape value of the first mode of the longitudinal vibration isolation device of the propulsion shaft system at the installation position on the shaft system, the supporting stiffness of the supporting mechanism, the output force of the supporting mechanism, the radius of the friction protrusion, and the longitudinal vibration displacement of the propulsion shaft system at the installation position of the longitudinal vibration isolation device of the propulsion shaft system, the profile curve equation of the raceway is constructed and the profile curve of the raceway is determined.
[0030] Optionally, after determining the profile curve of the raceway, the machining difficulty of the profile curve of the raceway can be checked; if the machining difficulty does not meet the requirements, at least one of the following can be readjusted: the support stiffness of the support mechanism, the output force of the support mechanism, and the radius of the friction protrusion, and the profile curve of the raceway can be re-determined until the machining difficulty of the profile curve of the raceway meets the requirements.
[0031] Optionally, provided the processing difficulty meets the requirements, a longitudinal vibration differential equation for the propulsion shaft system-isolation device coupling can be constructed to describe the dynamic behavior of the shaft system and the propulsion shaft system longitudinal vibration isolation device working together. Based on the dynamic behavior of the shaft system and the propulsion shaft system longitudinal vibration isolation device working together, the vibration response of the propulsion shaft system-isolation device coupling system under different excitation frequencies is simulated to obtain the performance indicators of the propulsion shaft system longitudinal vibration isolation device in a wide frequency range. The performance indicators include: isolation efficiency and / or resonance frequency shift. The simulated performance indicators are compared with preset indicators to obtain the comparison results. If the comparison results meet the requirements, the processing and installation of the propulsion shaft system longitudinal vibration isolation device are carried out. If the comparison results do not meet the requirements, the modal stiffness of the propulsion shaft system after installing the propulsion shaft system longitudinal vibration isolation device is re-determined based on the initial isolation frequency of the propulsion shaft system until the comparison results of the simulated performance indicators and the preset indicators meet the requirements.
[0032] For example, Figure 5 A flowchart illustrating the design method of a longitudinal vibration isolation device for a propulsion shaft system according to an embodiment of this application is shown below. Figure 5As shown, it may include the following steps: Step 1: Determine the installation position of the vibration isolation device on the propulsion shaft system, and set the distance between the vibration isolation device and the propeller as follows: Vibration isolation devices are typically installed next to the thrust bearing housing, near one end of the propeller.
[0033] Step 2: Construct a finite element model of the longitudinal vibration of the propulsion shaft system using the finite element analysis method. Obtain the mass of the first-order longitudinal vibration mode of the propulsion shaft system through simulation calculations. First-order longitudinal vibration mode stiffness And the first-order mode shape value at the installation location of the vibration isolation device. These modal parameters are the core basis for the subsequent stiffness matching and vibration control design of vibration isolation devices, reflecting the inherent vibration characteristics of the shaft system itself.
[0034] Step 3: Determine the starting frequency for vibration isolation of the propulsion shaft system. For underwater noise, vibration isolation typically starts at a frequency of 10Hz.
[0035] Step 4: Based on the initial vibration isolation frequency of the propulsion shaft system, the modal stiffness of the system after installing the vibration isolation device can be determined. The values are taken as follows: in, The value is a coefficient, ranging from 0.1 to 1, which can be flexibly adjusted according to the vibration isolation requirements of the shafting (such as vibration isolation efficiency, stiffness adaptability, etc.) to adapt to the personalized vibration isolation design of different ship propulsion shafting systems.
[0036] Step 5: Select a suitable jack and determine its supporting stiffness through experimental testing. At the same time, select the output force of the jack. As the power support component of the vibration isolation device, the stiffness and output force parameters of the jack directly affect the device's ability to actively control shaft vibration. It needs to be precisely matched with the requirements of shaft load, vibration amplitude, etc.
[0037] Step Six: Determine the radius of the friction protrusion Friction protrusions are key structural components in vibration isolation devices for dissipating vibration energy and controlling force transmission. Their radius affects the contact mechanical characteristics with the raceway, thus impacting the vibration isolation effect. Therefore, it is necessary to comprehensively consider factors such as contact stress and friction energy consumption to optimize their selection.
[0038] Step 7: Derive the equation for the raceway profile curve as follows. : In the formula, x is the longitudinal vibration displacement of the propulsion shaft system at the installation position of the vibration isolator; Here is the profile function expression for raceway ①. These are coordinate values; Let be the radius of the friction protrusion; For a specific function, for The derivative; It can be represented as: In the formula, This refers to the longitudinal vibration displacement of the vibration isolation device at its shaft mounting location. This is a coefficient, with a value ranging from 0.1 to 1; To advance the starting frequency of shaft system vibration isolation; To improve the first-order longitudinal vibration mode mass of the shaft system; To improve the first-order longitudinal vibration mode stiffness of the shaft system; This represents the first-order mode shape value of the vibration isolation device at its shaft installation location; The supporting stiffness of the jack; This is the output force of the jack.
[0039] Step 8: Verify the machining difficulty of the raceway profile curve. If the machining difficulty is within a reasonable and achievable range, proceed to the next step; if the machining difficulty is high, the support stiffness of the jacks needs to be readjusted. Output force and the radius of the friction protrusion Starting from step five, the design is iterated again to ensure that the vibration isolation device meets both the vibration isolation performance requirements and is manufacturable.
[0040] Step Nine: Construct the longitudinal vibration differential equations of the propulsion shaft system-vibration isolator coupling to accurately describe the dynamic behavior of the shaft system and vibration isolation device working together: In the formula, To increase the total mass of the shafting system; To promote shaft damping; This is the total longitudinal stiffness of the propulsion shaft system after the vibration isolator is installed; For environmental incentives; To excite the circular frequency; For time; It is the imaginary unit.
[0041] Step 10: Conduct simulation studies on the dynamic behavior formulas from Step 9, simulating different excitation frequencies (covering the vibration frequency range corresponding to the shaft's operating speed) to improve the vibration response of the shaft-isolation coupling system. Through simulation, key performance indicators such as isolation efficiency and resonant frequency shift of the isolation device in a wide frequency range can be obtained. Step 11: Compare the vibration isolation performance obtained from the simulation with the preset isolation targets (such as isolation efficiency threshold, resonant frequency avoidance requirements, etc.): If the requirements are met, the preliminary design of the isolation device is completed; if not, it is necessary to go back to Step 4 and readjust the overall stiffness. The process is repeated after adjusting the design parameters until the performance meets the standards. This iterative mechanism ensures that the design fully adapts to the shaft isolation requirements and improves the reliability of the solution.
[0042] Step 12: Machining core components such as rolling bearings and raceways according to design parameters, and sequentially completing the shaft system integration and installation, and jack placement. By adjusting the jack spacing and coordinating real-time monitoring with force sensors, the contact force between the friction protrusions and the raceways is precisely controlled. To ensure that the physical characteristics of the device are consistent with the design model, after assembly, conduct field tests on the vibration isolation performance to verify the effect of the vibration isolation device on suppressing longitudinal vibration and evaluate the engineering practicality of the design.
[0043] For example, a simulation example is taken from the propulsion shafting system of an actual ship in engineering, as shown in Figure 6. The total length of the shafting system is 20m, the outer radius of the shaft is 250mm, and the inner radius is 120mm. Table 1 gives its main material parameters.
[0044] Table 1 For example, in the design, the jack load is selected as 10t and the jack stiffness is 10. 7 N / m, the vibration isolator is installed next to the thrust bearing, and the total stiffness of the vibration isolator is 10. 7 N / m. The designed raceway profile curve is shown in Figure 7. The vibration isolation effect is shown in Figure 8. It can be seen that, within the frequency range of 20Hz to 200Hz, after installing this vibration isolator, the load amplitude transmitted from the propulsion shaft to the base is significantly lower than that without the vibration isolator. This result fully verifies that the designed vibration isolator has good vibration isolation performance in this frequency band, indicating that it can effectively block the energy transfer of longitudinal vibration of the propulsion shaft to the base.
[0045] This application describes a longitudinal vibration isolation device for a propulsion shaft system, designed and installed outside the thrust bearing. Its core principle is to achieve vibration isolation by precisely constructing a contour curve on the raceway, coordinating the functions of the rolling bearing and the jack. This contour curve is not designed in isolation but is determined through theoretical modeling and iterative optimization based on multiple parameters, including the mass, stiffness, natural frequency, vibration isolation initiation frequency of the propulsion shaft system, and the supporting stiffness and output force of the jack. This ensures the device's efficient suppression of longitudinal vibration of the shaft system, overcoming the limitations of traditional vibration isolation schemes in thrust bearing integration and shaft system dynamic adaptability.
