A bidirectional shear metal damper

Abstract

The invention discloses a bidirectional shear metal damper, comprising two end plates arranged opposite to each other, a transverse energy absorbing plate and a longitudinal energy absorbing plate perpendicular to each other connected between the two end plates, one side of the longitudinal energy absorbing plate contacts the side wall of the transverse energy absorbing plate, the upper and lower ends of the transverse energy absorbing plate and the longitudinal energy absorbing plate are both rotatably connected to the corresponding end plates, the transverse energy absorbing plate can rotate back and forth in the direction of the longitudinal energy absorbing plate, and the longitudinal energy absorbing plate can rotate back and forth in the direction of the transverse energy absorbing plate. The invention can realize bidirectional separate energy consumption, and can also effectively adapt to bidirectional coupled deformation, and can provide stable and reliable bearing capacity, stiffness and energy consumption capacity under bidirectional coupled deformation.
