The vibration properties of them drill-punch mechanism for the new type taphole drill were researched, the laws of its inherent characteristics were found. The measures to add punch amplitude and to reduce traverse vibration were put forward. The result showed that decreasing the frequency of vibration motors or increasing the stiffness of springs, and increasing excitation force can improve the vibration properties of the properties of the drill-punch mechanism.展开更多
