The present invention discloses a displacement amplification type self-resetting shear
damper, including a bearing member, an outer friction plate, an inner friction plate, a lever member, a partition, a prestressed bolt and a disc spring. The bearing members on both sides, the inner friction plate and the lever member constitute a lever
system, and the friction slopes of the inner friction plate and the outer friction plate fit each other. When a bearing member undergoes a vertical
relative displacement, the inner friction plate is pulled to produce a larger
vertical displacement, and the outer friction plate is pushed outward along the friction slope, compressing the disc spring string combination to produce
axial compression elastic deformation. After the external
shear load of the bearing member is unloaded, the vertical
relative displacement between the inner friction plate and the outer friction plate gradually recovers, and the
axial compression elasticity of the disc spring string combination automatically recovers, realizing the self-resetting function of the
damper. A friction plate or viscoelastic material is used between the inner friction plate and the support plate to realize displacement-related or displacement and speed-related energy dissipation. The
hysteresis curve of the
damper of the present invention presents a typical flag-shaped shape, and has good self-resetting and energy dissipation capabilities.
