A compactor includes a plate and an electric motor coupled to the plate and configured to impart vibration thereto. The electric motor including a stator and a rotor defining a rotational axis and having a center of mass that is not intersected by the rotational axis.

A compactor includes a plate, a shaft rotatably supported upon the plate, an electric motor configured to cause rotation of the shaft, and an eccentric mass arranged to rotate on the shaft, causing the plate to vibrate in response to rotation of the eccentric mass. The eccentric mass is configured to translate along the shaft.

A compactor includes a plate, an electric motor coupled to the plate, an exciter coupled to the plate and configured to vibrate the plate in response to receiving torque from the electric motor, a means for transferring torque from the electric motor to the exciter, a battery configured to provide power to the electric motor, and a vibration isolator coupling the battery to the plate.

The present disclosure discloses a linear motor having a housing with an receiving space, a vibration unit and a stator unit received in the receiving space. The vibrator unit includes a weight and an elastic member fixed to the weight. The elastic member includes a first fixation portion fixed to the housing and a second fixation portion fixed to the weight and an elastic portion. An elastic member having a groove penetrating thereon is sandwiched between the elastic portion and the weight. The elastic member includes a first damping portion and a second damping portion arranged on two opposite side f the groove along a vibration direction. The groove can effectively avoid the detachment of the elastic member from the elastic member and the weight, thus improving the vibration stability of the vibration motor.

A compactor including a plate, an electric motor coupled to the plate and including a motor shaft configured to rotate about a rotational axis, and an exciter coupled to the plate and configured to vibrate the plate in response to receiving torque from the electric motor. The exciter includes an exciter shaft and an eccentric mass attached thereto. The compactor additionally includes a battery configured to provide power to the electric motor, and a gear train to transfer torque from the motor shaft to the exciter shaft. The gear train permits the exciter to be driven at a rotational speed that is faster or slower than a rotational speed of the electric motor.

A vibration generating mechanism for a screen box includes a drive shaft arranged to be rotatably driven by a drive motor, at least one first eccentric out-of-balance weight fixed with respect to the drive shaft for rotation therewith and at least one second eccentric out-of-balance weight coupled to the drive shaft via gearing. The first and second out-of-balance weights rotate in opposite directions when driven by the drive shaft.

A rocking device provided with a fastening means (9) for mounting to for example a baby buggy to create an automatic rocking movement of the baby buggy. It comprises a rotating, asymmetrical weight (14) driven by an electric moto (24). The motor and weight are suspended in a rigid fastening bracket. The fastening bracket (13) is fastened to a first side of a vibration dampening connection element (3) of an at least partly soft material. The fastening means is fastened to the other side of the vibration dampening connection element (3), such that the movement of the weight is transmitted through the fastening bracket (13), via the vibration dampening connection element (3) and the fastening device, to the baby buggy. The fastening bracket with motor a weight is enclosed by an outer cover (1, 2) which is not in contact with the fastening bracket, motor or weight. The outer cover is fastened to the vibration dampening connection element (3), such that vibrations from the motor and the weight are not transmitted to the outer cover.

A tattoo device includes a rotary motor having a built-in motion conversion coupling. The device comprises a frame and an actuator for actuating a needle-driving shaft. The actuator includes an electric motor comprising a stator mounted to the frame, first and second bearings mounted to the frame, and a rotor comprising a rotor shaft rotatably supported at the first and second bearings, and a motion conversion member for converting rotation motion of the rotor to translation motion for reciprocally actuating the needle-driving shaft. The motion conversion member is positioned between the first and second bearings.

A vibration generating mechanism for a screen box includes a drive shaft arranged to be rotatably driven by a drive motor, at least one first eccentric out-of-balance weight fixed with respect to the drive shaft for rotation therewith and at least one second eccentric out-of-balance weight coupled to the drive shaft via gearing. The first and second out-of-balance weights rotate in opposite directions when driven by the drive shaft.

The technology introduces a new type of attachment to the shaft of a vibration motor designed to have the dual properties of eccentricity and an aerodynamic shape. This aerodynamic shape is intended to enhance the performance of the ERM-based device, improve its capabilities, or both. In this disclosure the term “performance” means current draw, noise, or controllability of the aerodynamic vibration attachment. The aerodynamic vibration attachment may have additional properties such as an embedded or otherwise incorporated shape or target that facilitates the estimation or measurement of the aerodynamic vibration attachment's angular position, angular velocity, or both, by a sensor or sensors. Alternatively, the aerodynamic vibration attachment may have additional properties such as an embedded sensor or sensors, and facilitates the estimation or measurement of the aerodynamic vibration attachment's angular position, angular velocity, or both, compared to signals obtained from external, non-rotating sensors, targets, markers or references.
