Abstract
A vibration exciter for a soil compacting device, comprising a first unbalanced shaft, a second unbalanced shaft, which is arranged axially parallel to the first unbalanced shaft and which is contra-directionally rotatably coupled to the first unbalanced shaft in a form-locked manner, and a drive device for rotatably driving one of the two unbalanced shafts. The second unbalanced shaft has a first unbalanced shaft half and a second unbalanced shaft half, which is arranged coaxially to the first unbalanced shaft half and which can rotate relative to the first unbalanced shaft half. At least one respective unbalanced mass is arranged on the first unbalanced shaft, on the first unbalanced shaft half, and on the second unbalanced shaft.

A vibration exciter for a ground compaction device, comprising:
- a first imbalance shaft,
- a second imbalance shaft which is arranged axially parallel to the first imbalance shaft and which is coupled to the first imbalance shaft in positively locking fashion so as to rotate in the opposite direction as the first imbalance shaft, and
- a drive device which is configured to drive one of the imbalance shafts in rotation, wherein
- the second imbalance shaft has a first imbalance shaft half and a second imbalance shaft half which is arranged coaxially with respect to the first imbalance shaft half and which is rotatable relative to the first imbalance shaft half, and wherein
- at least one imbalance mass is arranged on each of the first imbalance shaft, the first imbalance shaft half, and the second imbalance shaft half.
