20. Appendix E: Mechanical dynamic loading 20.1. Introduction The mechanical environmental conditions of the DLoG MPC 6 can vary greatly in terms of vibrations, collisions and shocks. The matter is made more difficult by the fact that the random values for acceleration and their frequencies for a given location are often unknown.
Page 169
Operational environments with low energy vibrations and medium energy shocks as well as very careful handling/transport compliant with: • Operation class 5M1 according to DIN EN 60721-3-5. • Examples: Vehicles with very good shock absorption: Car dashboard, immobile mounting surfaces: Desk or wall. DLoG MPC 6 Manual...
For an initial assessment, you can test the device by hand. Bring the system to excitation by gently hitting it with your hand. If the DLoG MPC 6 starts to visibly oscillate and if the vibrations take a long time to die away, it is probable that the natural frequency is too low.
This is practically impossible, if you consider that excitation accelerations within the range of around 10 Hz to 200 Hz or more may occur. Furthermore, the springs of the DLoG MPC 6 would strongly deflect while static or visibly swivel while resonating (blurred display).
Example for dimensioning an elastic bearing with mounting bracket for mobile application (according to the figure on next page) The DLoG MPC 6/110 is screwed into a mobile position with a mounting bracket. Elastomer springs should be installed between the back of the mounting bracket and the assembly surface in the vehicle so that the depth can be adjusted.
To simplify matters, of the 6 possible degrees of freedom we will only consider those with the greatest deflection in the case of the DLoG MPC 6/110. In other words: We observe the display as it oscillates towards or away from us (a combination of rotational and longitudinal oscillation).
Page 175
This theoretical value of 19.1 Hz lies in the range of 20 Hz ± 5 Hz as measured in practice. The calculations depicted above are only approximations, which is why we recommend a final field test with the selected elastomer springs . DLoG MPC 6 Manual...
Appendix E: Mechanical dynamic loading 20.4.2. Further possible steps for optimization: • If it turns out that the DLoG MPC 6’s resonance deflections could be greater, the natural frequency can be reduced. In our selected example, softer elastomer springs with the same construction could be used.
Based on this table, we can clearly expect very good insulation for excitation frequencies that are twice as high as the system’s natural frequency. Consequently, the amplitude of the reaction accelerations of the DLoG MPC 6 still only reaches 66 % of the amplitude of the excitation accelerations, which actually have an effect twice that of the natural frequency.
Page 178
• If high energy excitation frequencies mainly occur in the region of the natural frequency of the DLoG MPC 6 with its mounting, which can be found, for example, in a vehicle chassis tuned to a low frequency. In this case a spring mounting of the DLoG MPC 6 should be avoided.
