[0021] Reference Figure 1-2A variable damping speed type damper comprises: a sleeve component 10, a screw component 20, a brake disc 60, a plurality of first damping components 30 and a plurality of second damping components 50; wherein the screw component 20 is arranged in the sleeve component 10 for movement, and the sleeve component 10 and the screw component 20 undergo relative linear motion; wherein the brake disc 60 is arranged in the sleeve component 10, the brake disc 60 is connected to the screw component 20, and the screw component 20 drives the brake disc 60 to rotate; wherein each first damping component 30 is arranged in the sleeve component 10, each first damping component 30 is located on both sides of the brake disc 60, and the screw component 20 drives the brake disc 60 to rotate When the moving disc 60 rotates, the brake disc 60 and the first damping component 30 form a first friction pair and generate a first damping force; wherein each second damping component 50 is arranged in the sleeve component 10, and each second damping component 50 is arranged outside the side wall of the brake disc 60 around the axis of the brake disc 60, and an elastic component 40 is provided between the second damping component 50 and the brake disc 60. When the screw component 20 drives the brake disc 60 to rotate, the brake disc 60 and the second damping component 50 form a second friction pair and generate a second damping force, and the elastic component 40 is extended as the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the brake disc 60 increases, so that the second damping force increases. This variable damping speed type damper senses the effect of vibration force through the screw component 20. When the screw component 20 and the sleeve component 10 undergo relative linear motion, the screw component 20 drives the brake disc 60 to rotate, and generates a constant first damping force with the first damping component 30 to reduce the effect of the vibration force. At the same time, as the vibration force increases, the rotation speed of the brake disc 60 will increase, and the elastic component 40 connected to the brake disc 60 will elongate and deform, thereby increasing the interaction force between the brake disc 60 and the second damping component 50, thereby increasing the second damping force between the two, which can effectively cope with external load inputs of different speeds and improve the energy conversion rate. The damper can achieve variable damping according to external loads of different speeds, so that the structure can exert better seismic performance.

[0022] In this embodiment, the elastic component 40 includes a pressing block 41 and an elastic connecting member 42, one end of the elastic connecting member 42 is connected to the brake disc 60, and the other end of the elastic connecting member 42 is connected to the pressing block 41, and the pressing block 41 is in contact with the second damping component 50. The elastic connecting member 42 is deformed by centrifugal force, thereby increasing the interaction force between the pressing block 41 and the second damping component 50, converting the mechanical kinetic energy of the second damping component 50 into heat energy, thereby achieving better anti-seismic performance.

[0023] In this embodiment, the elastic connecting member 42 includes but is not limited to a spring, an elastic band, an elastic column, etc. The pressing block 41 is a block structure with a certain mass.

[0024] In this embodiment, the first damping component 30 includes a base 33, a friction plate 31 and a spring 32, the base 33 is arranged in the sleeve component 10, the spring 32 is arranged between the base 33 and the friction plate 31, and the friction plate 31 and the brake disc 60 form a first friction pair. Preferably, the second damping component 50 has the same structure as the first damping component 30.

[0025] In this embodiment, the screw component 20 includes a ball nut 22 and a screw 21. The ball nut 22 is arranged on the screw 21. The screw 21 drives the ball nut 22 to rotate. The ball nut 22 is connected to the brake disc 60. Preferably, a connecting disc 212 is provided on the ball nut 22. The brake disc 60 and the connecting disc 212 are connected by bolt flanges to ensure more stable installation. The ball nut 22 is fixedly connected to the brake disc 60 to ensure a reasonable structure.

[0026] In this embodiment, one end of the screw rod 21 extends into the sleeve component 10, and the other end of the screw rod 21 is provided with a first earring 23. One end of the sleeve component 10 is provided with a hole capable of accommodating the screw rod 21, and the other end of the sleeve component 10 is provided with a second earring 12. The first earring 23 and the second earring 12 are used to connect with the structure to ensure installation and positioning. A limit block 211 is provided at one end of the screw rod 21, and a limit plate 11 cooperating with the limit block 211 is provided in the sleeve component 10. The movement stroke of the screw rod 21 is limited to prevent the first damping component 30 and the second damping component 50 from failing.

[0027] In this embodiment, the brake disc 60 is circular, the screw rod 21 is vertically arranged at the center of the brake disc 60, and the cross-sectional shape of the sleeve component 10 is approximately "T"-shaped, so as to accommodate the screw rod 21 and the brake disc 60 at the same time.

[0028] When the variable damping speed type damper undergoes relative linear motion with the sleeve component 10 and the screw component 20, the ball nut 22 drives the connecting plate 212 to rotate. Since the brake disc 60 and the connecting plate 212 are kept in a fastened state by bolts, the brake disc 60 rotates synchronously. When the brake disc 60 rotates, it forms a pair of first friction pairs with the friction plate 31 in the first damping component 30, generating a constant first damping force on the rotation of the brake disc 60, and at the same time forms a pair of second friction pairs with the friction plate 31 in the second damping component 50. When the rotation speed of the brake disc 60 increases, the elastic connecting member 42 connected to the brake disc 60 is subjected to an increased centrifugal force, causing the elastic connecting member 42 to be elongated and deformed, so that the interaction force between the pressure block 41 and the friction plate 31 in the second damping component 50 is enhanced, thereby increasing the damping between the two. The conversion efficiency of mechanical kinetic energy into heat energy is improved through the cooperation of the constant first damping force and the variable second damping force. The control principle is scientific, the structural layout is clear, and the seismic performance of the structure can be significantly improved.

[0029] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of ordinary technicians in the technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
