Vibration Suppression and Isolation for Rapeseed Grain Cleaning Loss Sensor

Abstract EN

Rapeseed cleaning loss is an important factor to weigh rapeseed combine harvester performance.

With the development of sensor technology, establishing a rapeseed cleaning loss monitoring system can be interesting and necessary.

However, the rapeseed combine harvester made in China is always with larger vibration, which is not beneficial for sensor monitoring accuracy.

Experiment results indicate that inertia force from vibrating sieve unbalanced motion has the greatest influence on the monitoring accuracy of the sensor in its installation position.

To reduce the effect of vibration on monitoring accuracy of the sensor, the vibration absorption and isolation structure for cleaning loss sensor has been designed.

Moreover, the vibration isolation design was performed on the basis of vibration suppression.

The vibration isolation rubber was designed to isolate the vibration at the joint of the sensor with the frame.

The experimental results shown that the above design can reduce the vibration disturbance and highlight the grain collision signal greatly, which is beneficial for improving the sensor discrimination ability.
