A vibration control system with an air spring as the actuator and proportional electropneumatic control has been developed at the Institute of Materials and Machine Mechanics, Bratislava. As the electropneumatic transducer, a proportional pressure control valve is used in contrast to the previously used proportional flow control valve. The vibration control is facilitated by a combination of a ‘sky hook’ feedback loop and a feedforward loop working on the so-called ‘sky cloud’ principle, compensating base vertical vibration. Good agreement between simulation results and measurement on a laboratory dummy system was observed. The dummy system was also subjected to narrow-band random excitation, prescribed for standardized laboratory tests of driver's seats. The improvement in driver's seat vibration control properties owing to the feedforward vibration compensation is 2.5-fold, i.e. by 8 dB in comparison with ‘sky hook’ feedback damping only. The system could be used for vibration control in automotive applications, especially for vehicles with an unsprung chassis (earth-moving machines, wheeled tractors) and in the heavy vehicles sector.
