Verification of concept of construction of mathematical models of capture probability to describe feed rate of mechanical disk hopper feeding-orienting devices

The article discusses various approaches for mathematically describing the feed rate of mechanical disk hopper feeding-orienting devices. A new concept of construction of the specified mathematical models is presented, taking into account the impact on the feed rate of mechanical disk hopper feeding-orienting devices of their parameters and parameters of feeding asymmetric parts of solids of revolution. Mathematical models of capture probability and feed rate of improved and traditional mechanical disk hopper feeding-orienting devices for asymmetric parts of bodies of revolution are obtained. The results of experimental studies of the probability of capture and feed rate of improved mechanical disk hopper feeding-orienting devices for parts of bodies of revolution with implicit asymmetry and traditional mechanical disk hopper feeding-orienting devices for parts of bodies of revolution with explicit asymmetry are presented. The mathematical models of capture probability and feed rate developed on the basis of the proposed concept were verified with the results of experimental studies.
