Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of civil engineering, and specifically to a novel vibration isolation device. Background Art

[0002] As one of the natural disasters that have the greatest impact on the damage of civil engineering structures, vibration - earthquake is one of the natural disasters that humans need to face. Due to its randomness and suddenness, earthquakes are difficult to accurately predict and often cause catastrophic consequences. The traditional seismic design method for structures relies on increasing the strength and deformation capacity of the structure itself to resist earthquakes. At this time, a large amount of seismic energy is allowed to be transmitted from the ground to the structure. In fact, in addition to earthquakes, environmental vibrations, wind vibrations, etc. will also affect people's production and life.

[0003] To reduce the destructive effects of various vibrations, the vibration reduction control method is introduced, which refers to reducing the vibration response of the structure through methods such as vibration isolation, energy dissipation, applying external forces, and adjusting the dynamic characteristics of the structure, so as to ensure the safety of the structure itself. It has the advantages of safety and reliability, higher effectiveness, economic savings, and a wide range of applications, and is an effective technology for reducing the impact of vibrations.

[0004] Vibration isolation (seismic isolation) is a mature method with wide applications. However, the current vibration isolation technology has residual deformation after earthquake or vibration, and mainly focuses on horizontal vibration isolation. There are few vibration isolation devices for vertical vibration, and the vibration reduction effect is limited. It needs to be improved to adapt to new engineering problems. Therefore, we propose a novel vibration isolation device. Summary of the Invention
