The portion between two parties 93 of damper 90 comprises first block 98 and second block 99 of spacer lug form, and spacer lug is outstanding and by recess 141 separately to brush holder periphery 97 on the main body of damper.If the grip part of brush holder 14 moves and the initiative part 13 of brush holder moves to pivot around damper 15 along direction 143 along direction 142, then the initiative part 13 of 98,99 pairs of brush holders of these blocks and the possible swing offset between the grip part 14 provide physical restriction.The circular feature of block 98,99 can make them work, and no matter around the orientation of this bending of brush holder axis 144 how.
Figure 14 is illustrated in the vibration characteristics that the bristle root place of painting brush brush records.This can measure as follows: promptly, cut off brush in bristle root position place, the beam path (being expressed as R) that blocked by oscillating movement and the amplitude and the frequency of measuring vibrations are set.Figure 14 illustrates:
-before vibrator starts, the stationary part 152 of this part of painting brush;
-when vibrator started, bristle had the screw 153 of length direction quadrature with them at first;
-when vibrator is stablized, each bristle root have basic similarly with the motion 154 of its length direction quadrature, when allowing freely-movable, motion is basic for circle, have about 2mm amplitude and an about 80Hz frequency simultaneously.
Put when the vibration brush and to lean against when treating on the mopping surface, for example bristle is at 45 with the surface, and is schematically illustrated as Figure 16, and free circus movement is deformed and becomes flattened round or elliptical motion 161.This has given the trend that the vibration brush self moves ahead along band mopping surface.
Figure 16 shows by damper 15 by relative some contact 171,172 painting brushes that vertically dangled 10.The vibration amplitude of the initiative part 13 of full vibration (full vibration) is measured as in the position 173 (corresponding to the root position of the bristle of the brush that is connected with brush) brush of locating to record.Hold the sense of shaking (held vibration sensation) (in position grip part and that keep damper 15 of brush holder at a distance of 5cm apart from the vd place) vibration amplitude locating to record that is measured as in the position 174.The position of the common grasping brush of user is in use represented in this position.
Suitable inertia is arranged to and is given to the maintenance structure of contact point 171,172 (it can be a peg), thus the vibration characteristics that its not obvious influence is being measured.
It is as follows to measure the result who obtains at two kinds of different damping devices.
Damper 1 Damper 2
Full vibration 2.35mm 2.19mm
Hold the sense of shaking 0.52mm 0.55mm
Hold the sense of shaking/full vibration 22% 25%
Vibration reduces 78% 75%
Figure 17 shows flat brush head 32, and it is used at the aggressive mode of vibration brush the accurate part with edges eaves portion 182 intersections surface 181 being carried out mopping.Brush be held lean against and be basically perpendicular to crossing edge and with respect to the plane on the surface 184 of 181 plane, surface and eaves portion into about miter angle.The precision of vibration brush has reached degree like this, promptly needn't cover the surface 184 of eaves portion and do not have lacquering substantially on that surface.The intersecting lens that flat vibration brush is particularly suited for the opposite carries out mopping.
