- In the context of growing ergonomic concerns and pressing competition on the market, designing machines and vehicles offering a better operator comfort has become a major trend in development of heavy-duty machines and vehicles. During the ride over the rough terrain, the cab is subjected to excitations in the form of low frequency and high-amplitude vibration. This study investigates the vibration reduction strategy whereby the machine structure should incorporate an active suspension of the cab. An actuating mechanism is incorporated, connected to the machine frame and the cab, and placed in between. The main system component is a mobile platform to which the cab is attached. Respective drives set in motion the passive links in the actuating mechanism. The drives are equipped with cylinders capturing the instantaneous velocities derived in the control sub-system. The machine frame, subjected to kinematic excitations, performs a movement in space, which has to be measured with a set of sensors to support the control process. Basing on the measured movements of the machine frame, the control sub-system calculates the realtime values of the anticipated load and the required drive velocities. This study focuses on the development of a mechanical model of the actuating mechanism operating in several degree of freedom options. Solving the direct and inverse problems involving the position and velocity of the mechanism allows the Jacobean matrix to be applied in Newton-Euler’s equations. The purpose of the active suspension system is to stabilise the cab in the vertical position and to reduce its lateral vibrations and seat vibrations in the vertical. This study summarises the results of simulations performed to evaluate the system's performance and its power demand.
