Analysis of Motion of the Part on the Linear Vibratory Conveyor

TLDR: Based on Coulomb's law and collision regime, the sliding-hopping motion model on a linear vibratory conveyor was established and the effects on the motion of the part were analyzed in different vibration conditions upon the proposed model as discussed by the authors.

Abstract: Vibratory conveyor feeding part experiences discontinuous friction and collision,which is a typical strong-nonlinear dynamic problem. It is significant to obtain the motion state under different vibration conditions to design the vibratory conveyor. Based on Coulomb 's lawand collision regime, the sliding-hopping motion model on a linear vibratory conveyor was established. The effects on the motion of the part were analyzed in different vibration conditions upon the proposed model. It was found that there were both forward and backward sliding in the hopping motion,which influenced the motion of the part.
