Vibration damping system and vehicle

A vibration damping system comprising a vibration applying device mounted on a frame, a vibration detecting device that detects vibration appearing at a reference point through the frame and that outputs a vibration detection signal, and a control device that controls the vibration applying device, wherein

• the control device comprises a voltage command producing part that produces a driving voltage command to drive the vibration applying device and a vibration failure diagnosis part that diagnoses whether there is failure or not based on the vibration detection signal output by the vibration detecting device,
• in executing a normal mode in which control to damp the vibration is conducted, the voltage command producing part produces the driving voltage command based on the vibration detection signal and makes the vibration applying device generate a vibration applying force according to the driving voltage command, and
• in executing a failure diagnosis mode in which control to diagnose failure is conducted, the voltage command producing part produces the driving voltage command corresponding to a diagnosis frequency that is previously set at a frequency identical to either one of a resonance frequency of the frame and a resonance frequency of the vibration applying device or a predetermined frequency close to the resonance frequency and makes the vibration applying device generate the vibration applying force according to the driving voltage command, and the vibration failure diagnosis part diagnoses whether there is failure or not based on the vibration detection signal
• an electric current detecting device that detects a driving electric current supplied to the vibration applying device and that outputs an electric current detection signal is provided, and
• the control device comprises an electric current failure diagnosis part that diagnoses whether there is failure or not based on the electric current detection signal output by the electric current detecting device.
