Popis: The parallel mechanism was adopted as seat suspension system in this paper. And the active joints with damping springs as the reduction vibration actuator, the reduction vibration seat model with 3-PRPS parallel mechanism which had six degree of freedom was established. With position of the mechanism as the premise, stability indexes of the reduction vibration seat in motion were proposed. As a result, the task space of the moving platform was obtained according to the inverse solution of the mechanism position. To reduce vibration effectively, velocity matrix of branched chain was built by means of vector method. The structural parameters were obtained by the numerical computation to improve the reduction vibration space and flexibility. Based on the above analysis, the simulation model can be obtained. In order to verify the reliability of the simulation model, the experiment of vibration acceleration transmissibility was conducted and the result was then compared with that of the numerical computation. Their results were consistent with each other. It indicated that the simulation model was reliable and could be used for the subsequent analysis. Then, influence factors of vibration acceleration transmissibility were researched based on the verified simulation model. In order to obtain a suspension system with better reduction vibration performance, making the maximum vibration acceleration transmissibility in the vertical and horizontal be minimal was set as the optimization objective. And the above influence factors were taken as the design variables. Finally, the ride comfort of vehicles was improved. Meanwhile, this research can also provide some references for the similar engineering problems.
