Abstract
Multi-degree-of-freedom isolator with low stiffness is a fair prospect in engineering application. In this paper, a novel 6-DOF QZS vibration isolation platform based on leaf spring structure is presented. Its bearing capacity is provided through four leaf springs, and the quasi-zero-stiffness is realized by the force balance between the central spring and the suspension spring. 6-DOF vibration isolation is realized by the ball-hinge fixed design of a leaf spring. Through static and dynamic analysis, the following conclusions are brought. The stiffness of the leaf spring and the deformation of the central spring under static load are directly proportional to the bearing capacity of the isolation table. Besides, in order to ensure that the stiffness of the system is close to zero, the stiffness of the suspension spring and the inner spring should be as similar as possible. The vertical and horizontal displacement transmissibility tests of the isolation platform are carried out, in which the jumping phenomenon in the QZS vibration isolation platform is analyzed. By improving the damping of the structure and the length of the suspension spring, the dynamic vibration isolation process of the system can be more stable, the transmissibility can be reduced, and the vibration isolation effect can be enhanced.
