N2 - Heavy-duty construction tools such as jackhammers or road breakers can generate very high vibration to operators' hands and arms. For vibration suppression, an innovative anti-vibration exoskeleton technology is developed, which is passive, portable, cost-efficient and crucially helpful for a significant vibration suppression during the drilling and hitting process. The anti-vibration exoskeleton mimics the limb structure of animals, fully employs the beneficial nonlinear benefits in the bio-inspired X-shaped structure, and can significantly reduce vibration transmission without sacrificing loading capacity, while the latter is very important to increase the demolition efficiency during a demolishing work. Theoretical modeling, simulation and experiment results demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of this innovative technology.
