Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of earthquake resistance and disaster prevention and reduction of civil engineering structures, and in particular to an energy-absorbing coupling beam. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of my country's social economy, high-rise buildings are becoming more and more common. Shear wall structures, as the main lateral force-resistant structural form of high-rise buildings, are prone to stress condensation in earthquakes, and the wall members yield and brittle failure will cause huge disasters and losses. For this reason, the specification proposes the ductile design of shear wall structures, requiring the coupling beam to be the first line of defense of the seismic system of the shear wall joint, and to enter the yield cycle plastic deformation first when encountering earthquakes, dissipating the earthquake input energy to protect the main structure of the shear wall. However, if the plastic damage of the coupling beam is accumulated and not reinforced or repaired in time, it will inevitably lead to damage to the coupling beam, and the shear wall will be threatened by huge aftershocks. Post-disaster repair is difficult and uneconomical.

[0003] The eddy current damper uses the conductor mass block moving in the magnetic field to cut the magnetic flux lines to generate induced electromotive force, generate eddy currents, and thus cause the resistance thermal effect to consume vibration energy. At the same time, the eddy currents generated generate a new magnetic field in the opposite direction of the original magnetic field, thereby generating a damping force in the opposite direction of the conductor movement and also playing a vibration reduction role. Viscoelastic material is a composite damping material made of a polymer matrix with additives and fillers. A typical viscoelastic damper is made of two layers of viscoelastic material vulcanized and bonded between three steel plates. During the deformation process, the two constrained steel plates of the damper and the middle steel plate produce relative deformation, resulting in shear deformation and energy consumption of the viscoelastic material layer. Soft steel materials are widely used in energy dissipation dampers in the engineering field because of their clear constitutive relationship, stable performance, and full hysteresis loop.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

This embodiment is implemented based on the technical solution of the present invention, and provides a detailed implementation method and specific operation process, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.

[0031] Example

[0032] This embodiment provides a viscoelastic and eddy current combined full-stage high-efficiency energy-dissipating replaceable connecting beam, including two end plates 1 detachably connected to the non-energy-dissipating section and an energy-dissipating device connected to the end plate 1, the energy-dissipating device includes a mild steel component (metal damper) and a damper, the mild steel component includes a first mild steel part 2 and a second mild steel part 9, one end of the first mild steel part 2 is connected to one end plate 1, one end of the second mild steel part 9 is connected to another end plate 1, the damper is connected between the first mild steel part 2 and the second mild steel part 9, and the damper is a composite composed of an eddy current damper and a viscoelastic damper. Combining the shear energy dissipation advantages of the three dampers, a replaceable connecting beam with high shear energy dissipation strength is formed; the eddy current damper and the viscoelastic damper are cross-engaged to form a composite, which is different from the mechanical arrangement of the two, and has the advantage of improving energy dissipation capacity in a limited space.

[0033] The composite body includes a copper plate layer and a magnet layer. The copper plate layer includes multiple copper plates. The magnet layer includes multiple magnet embedding plates embedded with magnets 8. The copper plate and the magnet embedding plates are cross-fixedly connected by viscoelastic material 7. The copper plate is fixedly connected to the first soft steel part 2. The magnet embedding plate is fixedly connected to the second soft steel part 9.

[0034] The copper plate layer includes an inner copper plate 41 connected to both sides of the web of the first soft steel part 2 and an outer copper plate 42 connected to the inner copper plate 41, the magnet layer includes an inner magnet embedding plate 51 connected to both sides of the web of the second soft steel part 9 and an outer magnet embedding plate 52 connected to the inner magnet embedding plate 51, the parts of the inner magnet embedding plate 51 and the outer magnet embedding plate 52 extending out of the web are embedded in the magnet 8, the part of the copper plate layer extending out of the web and the part of the magnet layer extending out of the web are cross-fixed and connected by viscoelastic material 7, the part of the inner copper plate 41 not extending out of the web and the part of the outer copper plate 42 not extending out of the web are fixedly connected by a pad 6, and the part of the inner magnet embedding plate 51 not extending out of the web and the part of the outer magnet embedding plate 52 not extending out of the web are fixedly connected by a pad 6.

[0035] The end plate 1 is connected to the non-energy absorbing section by bolts.

[0036] The first soft steel member 2 and the second soft steel member 9 are I-shaped steels, and the I-shaped surface of the I-shaped steel is connected to the end plate 1. The I-shaped steel has stable mechanical properties and excellent economic efficiency.

[0037] The flanges of the first soft steel member 2 and the second soft steel member 9 are flanges with recesses at the edges, which has the advantage that the energy dissipation position can be controlled.

[0038] Holes are arranged on the webs of the first soft steel member 2 and the second soft steel member 9, and the holes are multiple rectangular holes arranged in parallel, which have the advantages of concentrated energy consumption, strong energy consumption capacity, stable performance after yielding, and convenient construction.

[0039] All the magnets 8 have their poles embedded in the same direction, which can maximize the reverse force generated by the eddy current damper, thereby increasing energy consumption.

[0040] The portion of the inner copper plate 41 that does not extend out of the web, the portion of the outer copper plate 42 that does not extend out of the web, and the pad 6 are connected by high-strength bolts 3, and the portion of the inner magnet embedding plate 51 that does not extend out of the web, the portion of the outer magnet embedding plate 52 that does not extend out of the web, and the pad 6 are connected by high-strength bolts 3.

[0041] The principle of the eddy current damper is that when the copper plate and the magnet 8 produce relative displacement, the copper plate in the magnetic field continuously cuts the magnetic flux lines to form eddy currents, generating a resistive thermal effect; the principle of the viscoelastic material damper is that when the viscoelastic material produces relative shear deformation with the constraint plates on both sides, it produces tensile deformation and energy consumption, and can provide a certain lateral stiffness. The energy consumption of eddy currents and viscoelastic materials is related to the vibration speed. The greater the speed, the greater the energy consumption. Therefore, these two dampers are both velocity dampers, which can play a role when the displacement of the small earthquake structure is very small. When connected in series with the displacement-type metal damper, full-stage energy consumption can be achieved, while ensuring the comfort of the structure under small earthquakes and wind vibrations and the safety of the main structure under large earthquakes.

[0042] During construction, the end plate 1, I-shaped steel, copper plate and magnet embedding plate can be pre-assembled, and after positioning, the magnet 8 is embedded and fixed in the magnet embedding plate, and the viscoelastic material is arranged between the copper plate and the magnet embedding plate.
