    摘要: A flywheel is attached to a shaft of a turbine. As the shaft rotates, the flywheel swings outwards away from the shaft and regulates the angular velocity of the rotating shaft. In an embodiment, there are multiple flywheels attached to the shaft. In another embodiment there is a first flywheel that controls a second flywheel. In another embodiment, the flywheel has adjustable or centrifugal displacement of counterbalanced masses for effective rotational diameter with effective rotational balance. In another embodiment, a small pilot centrifugal displacement flywheel may control a clutch by rotational velocity and may include a hysteresis control. An example of a clutch may limit that degree to which the arms of the flywheel may be extended and/or retracted. In another embodiment, a small pilot centrifugal displacement flywheel controls the hysteresis of a centrifugal flywheel displacement.

    摘要: Provided is a damper device enabling to exert stable vibration damping performance over a wide range of rotational speed regardless of environmental changes. A damper device attached to a rotating shaft to suppress amplitude at resonance of the rotating shaft, includes: a damper housing formed annularly and concentrically with the rotating shaft; a plurality of mass bodies annularly arranged around the rotation shaft inside of the damper housing and configured to be movable in the diameter direction by centrifugal force; an annular elastic body, formed of a circular spring-shaped elastic body abutting on the outside of the plurality of the mass bodies, so as to bias the mass body inward; and a biasing member, being a leaf spring-shaped elastic body abutting on the outside of the annular elastic body, so as to bias the annular elastic body inward.

    摘要: The invention relates to a mass-decoupling device for a motor vehicle, having: a mass-receiving element (10) and a mass object (11) accommodated therein, which mass-receiving element (10) and mass object (11) are point symmetrically formed and mounted opposite a body (36) of the motor vehicle; at least one guide means (13) that moveably mounts the mass-receiving element (10) and the mass object (11) accommodated therein along a longitudinal axis (L) of the vehicle; decoupling means (14) designed to decouple the mass-receiving element (10) and the mass object (11) accommodated therein from the body (36) of the motor vehicle; first energy-receiving means (15) designed to transmit kinetic energy of a movement of the mass-receiving element (10) and the mass object (11) accommodated therein to the body (36) of the motor vehicle in a predetermined time interval, said movement occurring along the longitudinal axis (L) of the vehicle, from a first position (P1) to a second position (P2); and second energy receiving means (16) designed to convert, at least partially, the kinetic energy of the movement of the mass-receiving element (10) and the mass object (11) accommodated therein along the longitudinal axis (L) of the vehicle into kinetic energy of a rotation of the mass object (11). The invention also relates to a corresponding method for decoupling mass for a motor vehicle.

    摘要: A variable inertia flywheel having revolute joint assemblies, a roller guide, a first actuator and a second actuator. The revolute joint assemblies are in engagement with a primary mover and include a first member, a second member and a roller. The roller guide is disposed about the revolute joint assemblies. An inner surface of the roller guide is in contact with the rollers and defines cam profiles that cause the rollers to extend and contract, creating a torque disturbance opposed to a primary mover torque ripple. The first actuator is in engagement with the roller guide and moves the roller guide, changing the amplitude and/or the phase angle of the torque ripple. The second actuator is in engagement with the roller guide and rotates the roller guide, changing the phase angle of the torque ripple.

    摘要: A torsional vibration reducing apparatus is provided. The torsional vibration reducing apparatus includes a rotating body having a rolling chamber, and a rolling body including a support shaft portion, a first flange portion, a second flange portion, a first corner portion, and a second corner portion. The support shaft portion is housed in the rolling chamber. The flange portions are located respectively at either end of the support shaft portion in an axial direction. A position defined by the support shaft portion and the first flange portion is the first corner portion, and a position defined by the support shaft portion and the second flange portion is the second corner portion. In a section of the rolling body that is along a central axis of the support shaft portion, sectional shapes of the first corner portion and the second corner portion differ from each other.
