US Patent 11396369 Variable rotary radially supported mass vibration suppression system

A vibration suppression unit for an aircraft comprising a mass assembly having a center of mass and a frequency rotor having a frequency center axis offset from a central axis of rotation and driven to rotate about the central axis, a vibration control amplitude rotor rotationally coupled to the mass assembly and having an amplitude center axis offset from the central axis driven independently of the frequency rotor to rotate about the central axis, the amplitude center axis and the frequency center axis having a selectively variable displacement angle defined by an inclusive angle between a line extending between the central axis and the amplitude center axis and a line extending between the central axis and the frequency center axis, wherein the amplitude rotor and the frequency rotor are controllable to produce a vibration control force vector having a controllable magnitude and frequency about the central axis of rotation.
