ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for incremental cylinder length control in hydraulic seismic vibrators having increased frequency range. The vibrator apparatus (10) of the type having a reaction mass (38) and axial cylinder bore (42) utilizes hydraulically movable end sleeves (86 and 96) in each end of the cylinder bore (42) so that the end sleeves (86 and 96) can be controllably positioned thereby to alter the cylinder volume and adjust the hydraulic drive system (18) for maximum efficiency relative to operating frequency.
