In this study, vibration analysis of a refrigerator was carried out to reduce vibration by considering grommet. When the refrigerator machine room is modeled by finite element method, spring elements are added to constructions of the FEmodel for each component and update. To design the grommet of refrigerator, FEmodel must have vibration characteristics of each components such as baseplate, pipe and compressor it self. The modal analyses are conducted to validate suggested approach when the components of machine room are assembled together. And, in this study, optimal design of grommet is conducted to avoid the resonance at the operating frequency of refrigerator. The experimental and FEM result of suggested design showed good agreement and are presented here.

The number of deaths caused by power crane accidents continues to decline. Nevertheless, more than 50 people die each year due to these accidents. Various types of slings, such as wire rope sling, chain sling, belt sling, and grommet, are used in industries, depending on the characteristics of the work involved. To reduce the number of accidents involving these slings, the formulation of technical measures and education of workers are necessary. This study compares and analyzes local and international guidelines as well as those found in manufacturer manuals in relation to grommets, which are widely used in shipyards and construction sites. Moreover, measures for improving the safety of work using grommet are reviewed. This paper further proposes the revision of the technical guidelines of the Korea Occupational Safety and Health Agency such that the information directly affecting the safety of work involving grommets is included. By clarifying the guidelines that manufacturers provide in their manuals, accident prevention through worker awareness is anticipated in the future.

Automotive industries are interested in material development with low weight and recycling. Grommet is made from EPDM at rubber and used as an automotive component. The nonlinear material properties of rubber are important to predict the behaviors of rubber product. This study concerns material property test to achieve stress-strain curve. Curve fitting is carried out to obtain the nonlinear material constant. The nonlinear material constants of rubber are used for the nonlinear finite element analysis. The results of finite element analysis is executed to predict the behavior property of grommet.

This paper studies the designing method and application for grommets, rubber material used to absorb vibration on the air conditioner compressor. The existing grommet with hardness 40 degrees, EPDM, has the high transmissibility on the compressor that causes additional structure born sound. The problem for EPDM is transformation over long time usage possibly due to its design in which stress is concentrated on a certain position. In order to resolve it, silicon material was previously used with the same design in some models. The vibration performance did improve, but the cost became high. Below are the major developments regarding improvements in compressor rubber material, vibration performance and durability through design change, and new grommet to attain cost reduction. 1 The optimum grommet design for stress even distribution through FEM methods. 2. Comparison for grommet material and design for improved transmissibility. 3. Assess for grommets durability and product applications.

In this paper, we present our method of controlling the transmission path of compressor vibration to reduce the vibroacoustic of refrigerator. Firstly, to reduce the vibroacoustic radiated from compressor _ mount system, main transmission path was found experimentally and applied partial contact to transmission path to minimize the transmissibility from compressor operation to base plate. In order to verify our method, we designed changing of the connection part between grommet and base plate. Through experiment with modified connection part, we certificate experimentally the noise reduction of refrigerator. Finally, we apply previous connection part to grommet inner shape to enhance the effect of the system. From experimental results, we make certain the possibility of noise reduction of refrigerator through this approach.

본 논문에서는 당사인 경신공업(주)와 스미토모전장(주)와의 기술제휴를 통한 신제품 개발 프로젝트를 통하여 진행 한 연구 내용이다. 현재 자동차의 주요 부품 중 하나인 Dash-Grommet는 실외에서 실내부로 직부되는 부분으로 방수성이 주요한 성능이다. 이에 따라 현재 방수성 향상을 위해 볼팅으로 씰링을 하는 구조로서 브라켓트를 적용하고 있으며, 볼팅 툴 사용에 따른 홀 위치가 센터로 이동함에 따라 와이어 하네스 성형성을 위해 프로텍터를 적용하고 있다. 이와 관련하여 작업자의 툴 사용에 따른 산업재해(근골격계)요인 및 원가 상승의 원인이 되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 그로멧 씰링구조를 최적화하여 브라켓트를 삭제시키고, 인간 공학적 구조 검토를 통한 저삽입력 구조의 Dash-Grommet 개발에 그 목적을 두었다. 그로멧 3중 씰링 구조를 이용하여 주요 성능인 방수(침수/살수) 성능에 대한 문제를 해결하였으며, 내부 파이프 구조를 이용하여 와이어를 통한 수분 유입에 대한 수밀 대책이 마련 되도록 하였다. 또한, 돌기부 구조를 이용하여 차량 장착시 판넬 접촉면을 최소화 함으로써 실제차량 장착 작업시 저삽입력을 가능하게 하였으며, 이와 더불어 홈부 구조를 이용하여 차량 장착시 그로멧의 수축을 용이하게 함으로써 새로운 그로멧 삽입 메커니즘을 구현하여 기존 대비 40~50%의 저 삽입력 그로멧을 개발할 수 있었다.

In general, compressors for refrigerators are major noise source in home environment. The vibration originated from a pump of a compressor can make noise through suspension springs and a LDT(Line Discharge Tube). Especially for the inverter motor driven compressor, the vibration is more serious than it of the constant speed compressors. Because the operation frequency range of an inverter motor driven compressor is very wide from 1600 rpm to 4200 rpm. In this paper, we propose the numerical model to reduce vibration by designing weight balancers and grommets. Results for analytical investigations on the exciting force and moment at the pump mass center, weight balancers and exciting frequency variation are presented.
