Abstract
Vibratory finishing is widely used in aerospace, weapon industry, high-grade computer numerical control machine tools, rail transportation equipment, and other high-end equipment manufacturing industries. Processing parameters are critical to processing efficiency and processing effect. Island-less bowl vibratory finishing equipment is commonly used to process medium and large disk parts. Compared with traditional bowl vibratory finishing equipment, the lack of an island structure in the shape of the container and the low motor mounting position can lead to changes in the container motion and the flow field of the particulate medium. In this work, a bowl vibratory finishing mathematical model and numerical model were established, the velocity of the granular media at different locations in the container and the magnitude of the force was analyzed, the change rule of the container amplitude size, granular media motion characteristics and force behavior under different processing parameters was elucidated, the container amplitude test experiments and the force test experiments were carried out. The results show that during bowl vibratory finishing, the container performs periodic three-dimensional elliptical motion in space. The lack of island structure in island-less bowl vibratory finishing results in lower motion speed and frequency of the granular media in areas far away from the container wall. The granular media makes a spiral motion around the container’s central axis consisting of circular and tumbling motions in an extended period and performs irregular velocity-changing annular spiral motion in a short period. The phase difference will change the motion direction of the granular media. The mass of the upper eccentric block affects the intensity of the circular motion of the granular media, and the mass of the lower eccentric block affects the intensity of the tumbling motion of the granular media. Selecting a phase difference of 90°, increasing the motor rotational speed and the eccentric block’s mass can increase the granular media’s velocity and force. This study provides a reference for improving processing efficiency and changing granular media flow field motion.
期刊介绍：
Although many phenomena observed in granular materials are still not yet fully understood, important contributions have been made to further our understanding using modern tools from statistical mechanics, micro-mechanics, and computational science.
These modern tools apply to disordered systems, phase transitions, instabilities or intermittent behavior and the performance of discrete particle simulations.
>> Until now, however, many of these results were only to be found scattered throughout the literature. Physicists are often unaware of the theories and results published by engineers or other fields - and vice versa.
The journal Granular Matter thus serves as an interdisciplinary platform of communication among researchers of various disciplines who are involved in the basic research on granular media. It helps to establish a common language and gather articles under one single roof that up to now have been spread over many journals in a variety of fields. Notwithstanding, highly applied or technical work is beyond the scope of this journal.
