Abstract
A seismic shaker is described, the seismic shaker comprising:—a base plate;—an electromagnetic motor comprising a mover and a stator, the stator being mounted to the base plate, and—a guiding mechanism comprising a plurality of rods connecting the stator to the mover, the guiding mechanism being configured to enable a displacement of the mover relative to the stator in a first direction and restrict a displacement in a plane substantially perpendicular to the first direction.
Claims26
Seismic shaker comprising:
- a base plate;
- a column mounted onto the base plate;
- a guiding mechanism;
- and
- an electromagnetic motor arranged to generate a single force on the column in a first direction,
- wherein the column is provided with a single stator,
- wherein the electromagnetic motor is formed by a mover and the single stator arranged to interact with each other to generate the single force, and
- wherein the guiding mechanism comprises a plurality of rods connecting the column to the mover, the guiding mechanism being configured to enable a displacement of the mover relative to the column in the first direction and restrict a displacement in a plane substantially perpendicular to the first direction.
