Patent ID: 8560129

Claim:
A vibration control device, comprising: a frequency detection means for detecting a frequency of vibration arising from a vibration generation source; a vibration detection means for detecting vibration of a frequency that is equal to the frequency of the vibration arising from the vibration generation source that is detected by the frequency detection means at a position at which vibration is to be controlled; a vibration level conversion means for converting the detected vibration into a vibration level; a vibration means provided at a position that is different from or the same as the position at which vibration is to be controlled, for generating a vibration control force with which the position at which vibration is to be controlled is vibrated; a comparison means for comparing the vibration level with a predetermined target vibration level; and a vibration command generation means for generating, based on a comparison result obtained by the comparison means, a vibration command for reducing vibration so that the vibration level is changed into the target vibration level in a case where the vibration level is larger than the target vibration level, and outputting the generated vibration command to the vibration means.
