This study was conducted to investigate the dynamic motion of knife drive system of combine harvester. A computer program was developed to simulate the dynamic motion of the knife drive linkage and its algorithm was evaluated through experiments. The results are summarized as follows : 1. The theorectical horizontal (the direction of knife's reciprocating motion) reaction forces at the supporting point of rocker arm and crank arm were changed in the similar sinusoidal trends with the measured reaction forces. 2. The maximum values of shaking moment and reaction force per one revolution of crank arm followed polynomial trends as the rotational speed of crank shaft increased. The unbalanced force acting on the driving system increased at high speed. Therefore, the rotational speed of crank shaft should be maintained in proper range at increased forward speed to decrease vibration of the knife drive system. 3. The added mass to the crank arm increased the dynamic unbalanced force at the supporting point of rocker arm. It counterbalanced the reaction force at the supporting point of crank arm.

인간의 보행에서 안정적인 디딤을 가능하게 하는 동작특성은 보행 일주기의 60%를 차지하는 긴 디딤국면이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 보행패턴을 자전거의 크랭크 구동장치에 반영하여 직립자세에서 안정적으로 구동할 수 있는 자전거를 설계하고자 한다. 크랭크의 회전속도를 디딤국면에서는 느리게 되돌림국면에서는 빠르게 움직이도록 급속귀환 기구를 크랭크 구동시스템에 적용하였다. 이 급속귀환 크랭크기구의 설계변수를 정의하고 설계변수의 변화가 크랭크의 거동에 미치는 영향을 시뮬레이션 하였다. 또한 실험장치를 제작한 후 탑승자의 구동동작을 분석한 결과 보행패턴을 접목한 크랭크는 사용자 무게중심 안정화에 기여하는 것으로 나타났다. 향후 보행패턴을 접목한 크랭크는 서서 타는 자전거의 구동시스템에 접목 가능할 것으로 보인다.

Generally, multi-legged walking robots have excellent mobility in rough and uneven terrain, and they are deployed for the safety of rescuers in various disaster environments. However, as each leg is driven by a number of actuators, it leads to a complicated structure and high power consumption; therefore, it is difficult to put them into practical use. In this article, a new concept is proposed of a walking robot whose legs are driven by a complex linkage structure to overcome the deficiencies of conventional multi-legged walking robots. A double crank-rocker mechanism is proposed, making it possible for one DC motor to actuate the left and right movements of two neighboring thighs of the multi-legged walking robot. Each leg can also move up and down through an improved cam structure. Finally, each mechanism is connected by spur and bevel gears, so that only two DC motors can drive all legs of the walking robot. The feasibility of the designed complex linkage mechanism was verified using the UG NX program. It was confirmed through actual production that the proposed multi-legged walking robot performs the desired motion.

A reciprocating compressor with a rotary motor used in a refrigerator has low efficiency, because it has the large mechanical losses due to the crank mechanism. The linear compressor which has the free piston driven by a linear motor, was developed to increase the efficiency of compressor by reducing mechanical losses. The TRIAC has been widely used for controlling the piston, because it has simple structure. However, as it is able to control only stator voltage, it is very difficult to obtain good efficiency. Recently, PWM inverter which is able to control the voltage as well as the frequency, is applied to linear compressor drive system to overcome above problem. In this paper, the variations for efficiency and power factor of linear compressor are investigated by changing both the mechanical resonant frequency and electrical resonant frequency of linear compressor, and also the inverter frequency The optimum relationships between both resonant frequencies and the inverter frequency is derived in order to obtain the maximum efficiency and also good power factor.

A fuel injection system which is operated with a real vehicle driving simulation was developed as an alternative to a vehicle test for the fuel injectors. The sensor signals that are supplied to the ECU were measured and recorded as a data file for a vehicle driven in FTP-75 mode in a chassis dynamometer. The imperative sensor signals of the throttle position, vehicle speed, engine speed, crank position, cam position, intake air flow, and cooling water and intake air temperature were reconstructed using FPGA DAQ boards and a PXI computer. The scanning results showed good agreement with the input signals that were reconstructed. The ECU HILS system operated successfully to drive six fuel injectors, which injected fuel in the same pattern as if they were mounted in the vehicle driven in FTP-75 mode. Also, the fuel injection system developed in this research shows the possibility of application in evaluating the characteristics of fuel injection rate for injectors according to properties of injected fuel with the real driving mode of vehicles.

본 논문은 스낵식품 가공 공정라인에서 사용하는 설비 중 하나로 이송물의 관성을 이용한 제조공정용 Fast Back 이송장치이다. 기존의 이송 장치는 벨트 컨베이어와 기계식 크랭크를 적용한 구동 장치로써 소음과 진동이 크고 환경 공해 발생하며 주기적인 유지보수가 필요하다. 이로 인해 본 논문에서는 제안하는 Fast Back 이송 장치는 크랭크식 구동장치 부분을 리니어 서보모터로 대체하고 가속에 따른 힘의 평형을 맞추기 위한 평형추 장치를 적용하여 안정된 동작을 확보하였다. 평형추 장치는 주기적으로 발생하는 충격형태의 가진력을 상쇄 시키는 것으로 진동해석을 통해 진동의 주요 원인을 파악하고 저감대책을 수립하였다. 시제품 제작을 통한 진동시험에서 약 10배 정도의 진동 저감에 대한 유효성을 검증하였다. 또한, PLC제어를 통한 전진과 후진에서의 속도, 가속도 조정을 가능하게 설계함으로써 직선형 구동력을 직접 발생시켜 별도의 기계적 변환장치가 필요하지 않아 에너지 손실이나 소음 및 진동을 발생시키지 않고 운전 속도에도 제한을 받지 않음을 증명하였다.

With the growing traffic density and increasing comfort requirements, the automation of the drive train will gain importance in vehicles. The automatic clutch actuation relieves the drivers especially in urban driving and stop-and-go traffic conditions. This paper describes the dynamic modeling of a clutch actuator and clutch spring. The dynamic model of the clutch system is developed using MATLAB/Simulink, and evaluated by experimental data using a test rig. This performance simulator is useful to develop the clutch-by-wire (CBW) system for an automated manual transmission (AMT). The electro-mechanical type CBW system is also implemented as an automatic clutch for AMT. The prototype of CBW system is designed and implemented systematically, which is composed of an electric motor, worm gear and slider-crank mechanism. The test rig is developed to perform the basic function test of the automatic clutch, and the developed prototype is validated by the experimental data on the test rig.

The power transmission to the traction devices may be very important for the tractor performance and therefore this system has been studied very much in the past. On the other hand, the PTO(Power-take-off) has been considered as an accessary on the tractor with a few work for its power transmission. Because of increased use of PTO operation in various kind of farming operations in recent years, the function of PTO may become such important as the traction facilities. In this study, the power transmission characteristics of PTO drive was analyzed theoretically and some experimental work was done to study on it. The results of the study are as follows: 1) The most stable condition of PTO work was obtained when the intersection angle of the two curves for driving and driven torques was about ${\pi}/2$. 2) To obtain the most stable operation it is better to use both the speed control and the full control together. 3) Six steps differential gear may not be enough to use the PTO power smoothly. It is thought that the three steps differential gear on the shaft of PTO may be necessary additionally for a smooth operation. 4) When the traction facilities and the PTO are used at the same time, the torque of crank shaft becomes Tt + Tp, and the high efficiency and good stability of word will be obtained with the small variation of driving speed. 5) When the tractor was operated with 75% of the rated horse power and 70% of maximum speed, the best thermal efficiency could be obtained. 6) The most dangerous sound for human occured at the rated speed of PTO and tus it may be necessary to control the dangerous noise.
