The vibratory plate is used for compacting soil. It is used in gardening and landscaping as well as civil
engineering, road construction, and paving.
6.3 Short description
The vibratory plate is a machine used to compact soils.
The vibration required for the compaction is generated by the exciter firmly connected to the base plate.
This exciter is designed as a single directional, front mounted exciter with circular vibrations.
The drive motor attached to the engine console drives the exciter. The torque is firmly transferred
through the centrifugal clutch and the exciter V-belt.
At low engine speeds, the centrifugal clutch interrupts the force flow to the exciter and thereby allows a
flawless idling of the drive motor. The revolutions per minute (RPM) of the drive motor can be changed
at the throttle lever from full throttle to idling.
The engine console and base plate are connected to each other through 4 vibration-absorbing rubber
metal buffers. This damping prevents a transfer of the very high frequencies to the engine console. The
functionality of the drive motor therefore remains preserved, despite the high compaction performance.
The drive motor is a four-cycle gasoline engine, is started via a recoil starter, draws the combustion air
through a dry-type air cleaner and is air-cooled.
