Abstract
Improved vibration damping devices (10), systems, and related methods are provided herein. In some aspects, damping devices and related methods can be used in single rotor or tandem rotor aircraft. In some aspects, a vibration damping device (10) for use in a vibration damping system of an aircraft can include a housing (10), at least two imbalance masses (42b, 44b) provided in a side-by-side configuration within the housing, and at least two more imbalance masses (40b, 46b) provided in a nested configuration within the housing. In some aspects, devices, systems, and methods include rotating any two imbalance masses provided within the housing in a same direction. Such rotation can result in a linear force for counteracting vibration occurring within the aircraft. In some aspects, devices described herein can include one or more processors for executing commands from a controller within a damping system.
