Abstract

Disc storing mechanism driven by hydraulic cylinder is the key component to ensure the deep sea coring. However, clearance is inevitable for assembly in joint of mechanism lead to poor operational characteristics. To ensure design and working reliability, disc storing mechanism driven by hydraulic cylinder for benthic drill with clearance is analyzed from a dynamic view. With piston rod be equivalent to slider, engaging lugs at end of cylinder to revolute joint and contact impact model deal with clearance, the dynamic model of disc storing mechanism driving by piston rod is present. The simulation model for the mechanism with clearance driven by cylinder using Simulink is established and analysis of dynamics is investigated. The simulation results for the case with and without clearance are evaluated under different driving conditions for motion characteristics and driving force. The effect of clearance to disc storing mechanism driven by hydraulic cylinder is found. These supply a lead for moving parameters choosing and a theory basis for key parts designing of the mechanism.
