Actual problems are applied issues that are related to vibration isolation of machine assemblies and operator seats in machines. The publication presents some technical solutions of vibration ...isolator systems. These systems are simple in design and include elastic elements with a linear stiffness characteristic, but with a special arrangement to the vibration displacements of the protected object. In systems of vibration isolators "with leap" in a specific range the effect of quasi-zero stiffness of the support is realized with an ideal vibration isolation of the object. Technological and universal technical solution for the vibration-isolating seat of transport machine operator is described in the publication.

The analysis of technical and technological solutions to reduce the influence of dynamic intermating process to vibroactivity of a gear drive is carried out. The problem of a complete elimination has ...no solution due to a discrete way of power flow transformation by a gear drive. It is shown that a reduction of mesh stiffness is a controlled parameter in vibroactivity decrease. We have proposed to reduce the stiffness by means of a gear rim radial cut that provides small initial and stepwise variable stiffness of gearing. The technical solutions resulting in a smooth, dependent on a power flow running of stiffness by means of built-in control chain and usage of elastomeric materials are given. As a result, it is noted that the reduction of mesh stiffness at the same time leads to the increase in static deformation δ, and the dynamic load under intermating decreases. Elastomeric parameters' variation t can provide the achievement of calculated mesh stiffness, depending on a variable power flow.

It is shown that if the control chain is built in both CVT's pulleys, then in a broad range of external loading change, the chain can be executed on the basis of resilient elements with a linear characteristic.
