Soil compacting device
A vibratory plate for soil compaction machine has an upper mass and a lower mass that is elastically coupled to the upper mass and that has a soil contact plate. The soil contact plate has a vibration exciter device. At least one energy storage element is situated on the upper mass.
1. A vibratory plate for soil compaction, comprising:
an upper mass on which at least one energy storage element and a drawbar are each situated;
a lower mass that is elastically coupled to the upper mass and that has a soil contact plate; and
a vibration exciter device that acts on the soil contact plate, wherein the vibration exciter device has at least one electric motor that rotationally drives at least one rotatably mounted imbalance mass, and that is capable of being driven by the electrical energy of the at least one energy storage element,
wherein the electric motor has two imbalance masses, the electric motor being situated axially between the two imbalance masses, and
wherein the electric motor is arranged on the lower mass.
2. The vibratory plate as recited in claim 1 , wherein a shaft of the electric motor extends transverse to a longitudinal axis of the vibratory plate.
3. The vibratory plate as recited in claim 1 , wherein the energy storage element is situated on the upper mass so as to be vibrationally decoupled therefrom.
4. The vibratory plate as recited in claim 1 , wherein at least one electric motor is a brushless electric motor consisting of one of a BLDC motor, an SR motor and an asynchronous motor.
5. The vibratory plate as recited in claim 1 , wherein vibration exciter device has at least two electric motors having respectively associated imbalance masses, the electric motors, together with, the associated imbalance masses, being situated spatially separate from one another on the lower mass.
6. The vibratory plate as recited in claim 5 , wherein at least two electric motors are configured, in staggered fashion along a longitudinal axis of the vibratory plate.
7. The vibratory plate as recited in claim 1 , wherein the vibratory plate has an electronic control unit that controls and/or regulates the direction of rotation and/or rotational speed of the at least one electric motor.
8. The vibratory plate as recited in claim 7 , wherein the electronic control unit is designed to control and/or to regulate the direction of rotation and rotational speed of at least two electric motors and adjusts said speeds independently of one another.
9. The vibratory plate as recited in claim 7 , wherein the electronic control unit is situated on the lower mass.
