Definitions

  • the vibration generator according to the invention is characterized in that a locking device is provided, through which the adjustable second weight element is determined up to a predetermined release speed of the shaft in the first position and is released and adjustable upon reaching the trigger speed.
  • a locking device is provided, through which the adjustable second weight element is determined up to a predetermined release speed of the shaft in the first position and is released and adjustable upon reaching the trigger speed.
  • the size of the imbalance can be held up to a predetermined release speed. This allows a constant imbalance especially when starting the vibrator. This can facilitate start-up of the vibrator in a starting phase and ensures a consistent static torque in the start-up phase.
  • An improved control is also achieved when, for example, critical resonance ranges of the vibration generator are passed through. As a result, stress or damage to the vibrator can be avoided.
