The vibration mechanism of the valve of the refrigerator compressor was analyzed. The measurement schemes of the vibration property of the valve were studied using the suction valve of a type of compressor as the research object. The experimental system for measuring the valve vibration property was established. The sound signal was used as the exciter and the Laser Doppler Velocity meter was applied to measure the vibration response of the valve. The preliminary experimental analyses of the vibration properties of the valve were accomplished.
