Vibrator motors are motors that generate vibration when driven. Like ordinary motors, they have a rotating shaft inside, but they are not used as a power source for rotation, but as a source of vibration.
They are used for vibration functions in smartphones, game console controllers, and other devices, and to prevent stagnation in machines that handle powdery and granular materials.
Compared to air vibrators, which are driven by air pressure, vibration motors have the advantage of generating a larger vibration force.
Vibrator motors are available in very small sizes, with outer diameters of only a few millimeters. They are also available in thin types that use shaftless motors, and are used as interfaces for portable devices, such as smartphones and game console controllers.
In contrast, there are also products that are large and can generate large amplitudes of vibration. These vibrator motors are mainly used for industrial applications, and are used to restore the intended flow of powder and granules by eliminating clogging, sticking, and bridging.
Vibrator motors have a weight called a vibrator connected to a shaft that is rotated by a motor. The resonator is designed so that its center of gravity is offset from that of the connection with the rotating shaft. When it rotates, it vibrates due to the eccentricity, and this vibration propagates to the surrounding area, thus functioning as a vibration source.
The amplitude of the vibration depends on the mass of the transducer and the degree of eccentricity, and the frequency of the vibration depends on the rotational speed of the vibrator motor. Therefore, the transducer and motor are selected according to the uses of the device.
When used in portable devices, batteries are often used as the energy source, so it is important to be able to generate effective vibration with a small output.
When used to prevent the retention of powder and granules, it is necessary to propagate the vibration to the center where the powder and granules are deposited, so it is important to set the amplitude and frequency. In order to set the appropriate values, it is necessary to find effective values either by deriving them theoretically from the natural frequencies of tanks and pipes or from the damping of vibrations in powder and granular materials, or by conducting test runs and verifications.
