Ergonomic Aspects of Development of Means of Contact Vibration Protection

Abstract

Development of means of contact vibration protection requires specific approaches to the choice of materials and construction methods. Their location in the man-machine system is strictly limited by their mass, size, position and determined by anthropometric and psycho-physiological characteristics of a man. In the paper we give a mathematical description of the ergonomic factors and examples of a new means of contact vibration protection such as vibroprotective stands, tips, casings and mittens.
