[0002] In modern mechanical systems, especially in the wind power industry and other applications involving high-intensity vibration, vibration reduction technology plays a vital role. Traditional vibration reduction devices usually use components such as mass blocks and springs to mechanically absorb vibration and dissipate energy. However, these systems have certain limitations in design, especially in environments with limited space and the need for efficient energy conversion, traditional structures often cannot meet the requirements.

[0003] At present, common shock absorption technologies include inertial mass shock absorbers, spring dampers, etc., but they usually have the following problems: 1. Large size and occupy too much space: Traditional inertial mass shock absorbers usually require a large space to place mass blocks and other accessories, which will cause installation difficulties and increased costs in application scenarios with limited space (such as wind turbine towers, etc.). 2. Low energy conversion efficiency: Some traditional shock absorbers convert vibration energy into heat or electrical energy through springs and friction systems, but due to friction losses or mechanical connection problems, the energy conversion efficiency is low, and long-term use may lead to system performance degradation. 3. Wear problems: Traditional shock absorbers are prone to wear and failure due to friction in the mechanical contact parts, which in turn affects the service life and stability of the entire system. Combining the principle of electromagnetic induction and efficient energy conversion mechanism, it is expected to improve the energy efficiency and service life of the system while ensuring the shock absorption effect.

[0035] Example 1

[0036] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown:

[0037] A nonlinear rack and pinion inertia damper comprises a transmission assembly, and two inertia enhancement assemblies and an energy dissipation and shock absorption assembly arranged in the transmission assembly;

[0038] The transmission assembly includes a housing 14, a rack 1 and a gear mechanism group. The housing 14 is provided with a rack support 2 for the rack to slide. The rack 1 is meshedly connected with the gear mechanism group.

[0039] Specifically, the gear mechanism group includes one primary transmission gear group, two secondary transmission gear groups, two tertiary transmission gear groups and two quaternary transmission gear groups; wherein:

[0040] The first-stage transmission gear set includes a small gear and a large gear, the second-stage transmission gear set includes a small gear and a large gear, the third-stage transmission gear set includes a small gear 3 and a large gear 4, and the fourth-stage transmission gear includes a small gear. The large gear and the small gear between each transmission gear set are coaxially fixed and transmitted through a transmission shaft 13, and the transmission shaft 13 is rotatably connected to the box 14 through a transmission shaft bearing 12.

[0041] Adjacent groups of gears are driven by tooth engagement. Specifically, the rack meshes with the pinion of the primary transmission gear set, the large gear of the primary transmission gear set rotates coaxially with the pinion of the primary transmission gear set, the large gear of the primary transmission gear set meshes with the pinion of the two groups of secondary transmission gear shafts respectively, the large gear of the secondary transmission gear set rotates coaxially with the pinion of the secondary transmission gear set, the large gear of the two groups of secondary transmission gear shafts meshes with the pinion of the corresponding tertiary transmission gear shafts respectively, the large gear of the tertiary transmission gear set rotates coaxially with the pinion of the tertiary transmission gear set, and the large gears of the two groups of tertiary transmission gear shafts mesh with the pinion of the corresponding quaternary transmission gear respectively;

[0042] The transmission assembly is connected to the outside world through a rack, converting the horizontal movement of the external input into the rotation of the gears in the gear mechanism group. The rack drives the small gear of the first-stage transmission gear group to rotate. The large gear of the first-stage transmission gear group drives the gear of the second-stage transmission gear group to rotate by meshing with the small gear of the second-stage transmission gear group. The second-stage transmission gear group drives the third-stage transmission gear group, and the third-stage transmission gear group drives the fourth-stage transmission gear to rotate. The transmission of the transmission shaft can not only convert the movement mode, but also amplify the transmission ratio and save space.

[0043] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the rack 1 is meshed with the pinion 311 of the primary transmission gear set, the pinion 311 of the primary transmission gear set is coaxially fixed with the large gear 411 of the primary transmission gear set, the large gear 411 of the primary transmission gear set is meshed with the pinion 312 of the secondary transmission gear set, the pinion 312 of the secondary transmission gear set is coaxially fixed with the large gear 412 of the secondary transmission gear set, the large gear 412 of the secondary transmission gear set is meshed with the pinion 313 of the tertiary transmission gear set, the pinion 313 of the tertiary transmission gear set is coaxially fixed with the large gear 413 of the tertiary transmission gear set, the large gear 413 of the tertiary transmission gear set is meshed with the pinion 314 of the quaternary transmission gear, and the gears on both sides of the rack 1 are symmetrical about the bottom plate center of the housing 14;

[0044] During an earthquake, rack 1 will reciprocate and generate horizontal displacement. Gear 311 will rotate along with the movement of rack 1, and large gear 411 will also rotate. Therefore, the gear system will rotate. Finally, gear 314 will rotate together with the transmission shaft and the upper inertia enhancement assembly, realizing the conversion of horizontal motion into rotational motion of the entire system. This system amplifies the transmission ratio, saves space, and improves mechanical efficiency.

[0045] The inertia volume enhancement component is fixed on the last gear shaft of the gear mechanism group. Specifically, the inertia volume enhancement component is fixed on the gear shaft of the fourth-stage transmission gear, and the inertia volume enhancement component can rotate with the gear shaft of the fourth-stage transmission gear.

[0046] The inertia capacity enhancement component comprises a flywheel 7 , and a circular conductor plate is arranged outside the flywheel 7 , which is referred to as an upper conductor plate 8 herein.

[0047] The center of the inertia volume enhancement component, i.e., the center of the flywheel 7, is fixed on the transmission shaft at the end of the gear mechanism group, and is connected to the pinion of the four-stage transmission gear through the transmission shaft, thereby driving the inertia volume enhancement component to rotate;

[0048] The flywheel is provided with four holes and slots inside, which are symmetrically distributed around the center. A mass block 11 is provided in each hole and a threaded rod 10 is provided in the hole. The extension line of the threaded rod 10 passes through the center of the flywheel. The threaded rod 10 passes through the mass block 11 and is connected to the two side walls of the hole. The mass block 11 can slide along the threaded rod. A spring 9 is also provided in the hole. One end of the spring 9 is connected to the mass block 11, and the other end of the spring 9 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the hole near the center of the flywheel 7.

[0049] Specifically, in order to achieve a smoother sliding of the mass block relative to the threaded rod, a ball screw and a bearing are provided inside the mass block 11. The threaded rod is arranged inside the ball screw, and a ball is provided inside the ball screw. The ball moves inside the ball screw, that is, the ball screw rotates along the threaded rod. The ball screw and the mass block are connected through the bearing, so that the mass block can move horizontally while the ball screw rotates. When an external force acts, the mass block moves outward along the threaded rod under the action of the centripetal force. When the centripetal force is small, the mass block rebounds to the specified position with the spring.

[0050] like Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, the internal components of the mass block 11 include a mass block bearing 111 and a ball screw 112. When the inertia enhancement component rotates, the mass block 11 will move outward as a whole. The mass block 11 contains a mass block bearing 111 and a ball screw 112. The ball screw 112 rotates and moves on the threaded rod 10. The mass block bearing 111 can block the rotation caused by the ball screw 112, so that the mass block 11 maintains horizontal movement. The ball screw 112 is in ball contact, which reduces the contact area between the screw cylinder and the threaded rod, and the transmission efficiency is higher. At the same time, due to the existence of friction and the change in the force transmission direction in the ball screw, a certain damping effect is achieved, which can effectively prevent the self-vibration problem of the spring.

[0051] In this embodiment, two springs 9 of equal size are arranged on the side of the mass block 11 close to the center of the flywheel 7 and connected to the flywheel 7. The outside of the flywheel 7 is an annular upper conductor plate 8. When the entire inertia enhancement assembly is subjected to a large centripetal force, the mass block 11 moves outward along the threaded rod 10 as a whole. When the centripetal force is small, the mass block 11 rebounds to the specified position with the spring 9. At the same time, the constraint of the roller screw cylinder can reduce the self-vibration problem of the spring.

[0052] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the inertia enhancement assembly includes four parts of the same structure, each of which is composed of a spring 9, a threaded rod 10 and a mass block 11. When the lower transmission assembly rotates, Figure 5The inertia enhancement component in the rotating shaft rotates, and the mass block moves outward along the threaded rod 10 under the action of the centripetal force. When the centripetal force is large, the mass block moves outward. When the centripetal force is small, the mass block rebounds to the specified position by the elastic force of the spring.

[0053] The energy dissipation and shock absorption assembly includes a circular conductor plate, which is referred to as the lower conductor plate 5. An array of magnets 6 is evenly arranged on the lower conductor plate 5. The number of magnets 6 can be increased or decreased according to actual conditions. The lower conductor plate 5 is the same size as the upper conductor plate 8 of the inertia-capacitance enhancement assembly. The lower conductor plate 5 is coaxially arranged with the upper conductor plate 8 and is located below the upper conductor plate 8. The lower conductor plate 5 is fixed above the housing of the transmission assembly. The magnets 6 have positive and negative poles, so there are closed magnetic flux lines. When the inertia-capacitance enhancement assembly rotates, it cuts the magnetic flux lines, converts the mechanical energy of the system into electrical energy, and then dissipates it in the form of heat energy.

[0054] like Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the energy dissipation and vibration reduction assembly includes a lower conductor plate 5 and magnets 6. The array of magnets 6 is evenly distributed on the ring of the lower conductor plate 5 to form a stable magnetic circuit. Figure 5 The inertial capacity enhancement assembly shown is placed coaxially with a small upper and lower distance. In this way, when the inertial capacity enhancement assembly rotates, the conductor plate of the outer ring of the inertial capacity enhancement assembly passes through the closed magnetic circuit and moves to cut the magnetic flux lines. The induced eddy current flows inside the conductor and generates Joule heat inside the material, thereby converting the rotational kinetic energy into heat energy dissipation.

[0055] The nonlinear rack and pinion inertia damper of the present invention has a transmission component that converts external horizontal motion into rotational motion of the rack and pinion system of the device, thereby amplifying the transmission ratio, having high mechanical efficiency, and being able to effectively reduce energy loss; the mass block of the inertia enhancement component is connected to the flywheel through a spring and a threaded rod, and the nonlinear adjustment of the inertia can be achieved by changing the stiffness of the spring; the magnets of different poles of the energy dissipation and shock absorption component are staggeredly distributed, providing a closed magnetic circuit for the inertia enhancement component.

[0056] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
