Abstract
An electromagnetically actuated machine balancer (110) including a plurality of peripherally placed magnetic circuits and a power driver which selectively interrupts the magnetic flux (1210) through the circuits, thereby moving unbalanced rotors (350-351) in a desired manner to compensate for machine unbalance. The balancer assembly (110) includes a remote stationary microprocessor based controller (140), operating under stored computer program control and adapted to control assembly (110) in a manner which is specified by the stored program and certain environmental and measured parameters.

Helicopter vibration control system and rotary force generator for canceling vibrations

TL;DR: In this paper, a rotary wing hub mounted vibration control system for a helicopter rotating hub having periodic vibrations while rotating at an operational rotation frequency is described. But the rotary hub is not attached to the helicopter, and the rotor housing cavity contains an electronics control system which receives sensor outputs and electrically controls and drives the first motor and second motor such that the first imbalance mass and the second imbalance mass are driven at a vibration canceling rotation frequency greater than the operational rotational frequency.

Computer implemented balancer

Abstract: A centrifugal balancer is combined with a computer system programed to suggest trial weights and placement and correction weights and placement to be used in interactive menu driven balancing sequences Vibration responsive transducers provide inputs to automatic multi-gain amplifiers in a computer interface The signals produced by the amplifiers are filtered by adjustable bandpass filters which are driven to match the rotational frequency of the work piece being balanced Peak detectors rectify the output of the filters and an analog-to-digital converter processes the output of the peak detectors A counter, reset by a sensor monitoring work piece rotation, is incremented until disabled by zero crossing detectors monitoring the outputs of the filters to provide relative phase information
