Abstract
The device embodying the invention applies to a variable-moment vibrator comprising at least two trains of eccentrics driven in rotation by a variable-speed motorization, the variation of the vibratory moment being obtained by a phase shifter which generates a phase shift between the rotary motion of the two trains of eccentrics. It comprises at least one accelerometric detector subjected to the vibrations generated by the vibrator, a means for deducing, from the accelerometric data detected, a value representative of the harmfulness of the vibrations, a means for entering a set value and a processor which acts on the phase-shift control of the phase shifter and/or on the component controlling the motorization speed variation in order to maintain the value representing the harmfulness of the vibrations at a level equal to or lower than the set value.
