Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of bridge seismic reduction and isolation, and particularly relates to a bridge seismic reduction and isolation device and an installation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The seismic isolation technology of bridges mainly uses scientific and reasonable design measures to enable the structural system to achieve a certain degree of seismic isolation or shock absorption, so as to ensure that the structure has good seismic performance. According to the basic laws of the structural system's response to earthquakes, the specific working principles of bridge seismic isolation technology can be summarized into three points:

[0003] (1) Extend the natural vibration period of the structure

[0004] The purpose of extending the structural period is achieved by designing a flexible support structure in the structure, which reduces the acceleration response of the structure and thus weakens the seismic response under the action of an earthquake.

[0005] (2) Reduce structural displacement

[0006] The extension of the natural vibration period of the structure will inevitably cause the displacement of the structure to increase. In order to reduce this part of the increased structural displacement, some damper-type energy dissipation elements can be applied in the structural design in a scientific and reasonable way. When an earthquake occurs, as the stress and deformation of the structure increase, the damper quickly enters the plastic state from the original elastic state and generates damping to consume the energy of the earthquake, thereby increasing the energy dissipation capacity and damping value of the structure.

[0007] (3) Reasonable stiffness value design

[0008] When designing the flexible support structure, the rationality of the stiffness of the bridge structure under normal use loads should be ensured. Special spacers can be added to the bridge structure design to support the entire bridge structure.

[0009] In recent years, the seismic isolation technology of bridges has developed rapidly. The seismic isolation methods currently used are mainly friction pendulum bearings and viscous dampers. Compared with other bearings, friction pendulum bearings have high bearing capacity and good seismic isolation effect. They have been increasingly widely used in large-span bridges. They have both shock absorption and seismic isolation functions. Viscous dampers are made based on the principle of fluid movement, especially when fluids pass through throttling holes. They are a type of damper related to the speed of piston movement. When an earthquake occurs, it converts mechanical energy into heat energy and dissipates it through internal interactions, including the interaction between the damping medium and the piston, the interaction between the damping medium and the cylinder, the interaction between the media, and the interaction between the piston rod and the seal, thereby greatly weakening the energy of the earthquake. Summary of the invention
