Disclosed is a phase shifting mechanism which is adapted to shift the phase between the motion transmission members and particularly a phase shifting mechanism suitable for use in vibro hammers.

A vibration generator has a first rotationally drivable imbalance shaft, on which a first imbalance is arranged, at least one second rotationally drivable imbalance shaft, on which a second imbalance is arranged, a joint drive for rotationally driving the two imbalance shafts and a transmission arrangement which is arranged between the drive and the imbalance shafts for transmitting a torque of the drive to the imbalance shafts. The transmission arrangement distributes an input torque of the drive to a first output element for the first imbalance and a second output element for the second imbalance. For the torque transmission a first deflection element is arranged between the transmission arrangement and the first imbalance shaft and for the torque transmission a second deflection shaft is arranged between the transmission arrangement and the second imbalance shaft.

A rotary member combination device and a connecting shaft thereof are provided. The rotary member combination device includes at least a first rotary member and a second rotary member, and further includes a connecting shaft between the first rotary member and the second rotary member. At least one of the first rotary member or the second rotary member is connected to the connecting shaft by a spiral groove and a boss structure matching the spiral groove. For the connecting shaft used in the rotary member combination device, the connecting shaft is provided with a first boss or a third spiral groove matching the first rotary member of the rotary member combination device. Compared with the prior art, the connecting shaft provided in the present invention may connect two or more rotary members to implement a relative positional relationship of the two or more rotary members in a circumferential direction, an adjustment process does not require any state condition, and relative positions of the rotary members in the circumferential direction may be controlled in a stationary state or at any rotational speed. The control accuracy is high, the control mode is flexible, and a mode such as manual adjustment, electrical automatic control, hydraulic adjustment, or pneumatic adjustment may be implemented.

Described herein are “Ultrahapticons,” which are a set of tangible and recognizable mid-air haptic icons that have been derived from research study participants' metaphorical associations with car infotainment features. In line with semiotic theory (the study of signs), data from the study was analyzed to identify key characteristics that when realized in mid-air haptic form, would enable a user to “feel” the feature they are interacting with. Their use is not limited to an automotive context, they can be instrumented to any application that exhibits the same feature functionality i.e. home entertainment system, laptop UI's, digital communication, Extended Reality (XR), and the like.

A vibratory drive system, suitable for a material screening apparatus, includes rotatable drive shafts each having a centre of mass offset from its rotational axis. A respective drive mechanism is coupled to each drive shaft and is controlled by a controller. The controller adjusts the relative rotational speed of the drive shafts to adjust the relative angular position of the respective centre of mass of the drive shafts. This adjustment allows the vibratory characteristics of the drive system to be changed without having to halt the drive system.

The disclosure relates to integrated modules for Synchronized Array of Vibration Actuators (FIG. 125A). The modules provide physical interface, power and communication interfaces. Each module may include vibration actuators (FIG. 123A) which can be precisely attached and aligned to the module housing, a microcontroller or other microprocessor, and one or more sensors for closed loop control of actuators (FIG. 126G). Interleaved pairs of ERMs having a center of mass in the same plane eliminate parasitic torque. A single module can produce a vibration force that rotates at a specific frequency and magnitude, which on its own could cancel out some types of periodic vibrations (FIG. 125B). Two modules paired together and counter-rotating with respect to each other can produce a directional vibration at a specific frequency and magnitude, which could prove even more useful for canceling out a vibration. Such modules are also employed to produce beating patterns (FIGS. 131-133). Both amplitude and frequency of the beating force are variable.

Circular force generator devices (100), systems, and methods for damping vibrations which include two complementary rotor assemblies (110, 120) that are rotatable together about a common shaft (102) but that have an adjustable rotational position (P1, P2) with respect to one another such that a significant reduction in rotor inertia and bearing drag relative to conventional CFG configurations is provided. The present architecture creates virtually zero rotating moment.
