The utility model provides a double-order
viscous damper with a self-testing function, and relates to the technical field of
civil engineering structures. Comprising a
bushing, a
piston, an oil cylinder, a
piston rod, a damping structure, a pin head, an extension
pipe, an oil inlet, an oil outlet and a pressure gauge, the two ends of the oil cylinder are connected with bushes respectively, a
machining groove is formed in the oil cylinder, a
piston and a damping structure are arranged in the oil cylinder, the
piston rod penetrates through the bushes, is inserted into the oil cylinder and is connected with the piston, one end of the
piston rod is connected with the pin head, the other end of the
piston rod is connected with the extension
pipe, and the upper end and the lower end of the oil cylinder are provided with an oil inlet and an oil outlet respectively. Pressure gauges are arranged between the oil inlet and the oil cylinder as well as between the oil outlet and the oil cylinder; the section of the
machining groove in the oil cylinder is larger than the sections of the two ends of the oil cylinder. According to the technical scheme, the problems that
silicone oil goes bad after an earthquake and is troublesome to return to a factory to replace the
silicone oil can be effectively solved, meanwhile, the pressure gauge is installed on the basis of an original
damper, and the self-testing function is achieved.
