Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of building vibration reduction technology, and more specifically, to a wall-mounted Z-type metal torsion tube damper seismic system and method. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, the most widely used seismic design method in the engineering vibration reduction industry is to use viscous dampers and metal soft steel dampers to design structures for seismic resistance, in order to improve the seismic resistance of structures under extreme conditions such as earthquakes and wind loads.
[0003] Viscous dampers are velocity-dependent dampers that generate damping force through the flow of internal liquid between pistons, efficiently converting vibration energy into heat energy and significantly reducing the vibration response of structures. However, they suffer from a serious problem, a current pain point in the industry: the risk of leakage. Viscous dampers rely on their internal viscous fluid for operation; if the seal fails and leakage occurs, it will severely affect the damper's performance and safety. Furthermore, viscous dampers have complex structures and numerous components, leading to generally high costs. Traditional mild steel dampers, on the other hand, are displacement-dependent dampers, classified into bending and shear types based on their energy dissipation mechanisms. They dissipate energy and reduce vibration through the yielding plastic deformation of mild steel metal with a low yield point. Due to their simple structure and low cost, they are widely used in building seismic isolation and vibration reduction. However, they suffer from drawbacks such as high construction precision requirements, poor low-cycle fatigue performance, and low cumulative energy dissipation efficiency, limiting their application and promotion.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a damper seismic system that can both solve the leakage risk of viscous dampers and improve the durability and energy dissipation efficiency of mild steel metal dampers. Summary of the Invention

The thickness of the anti-torsion plate and the thickness of the force transmission plate meet the corresponding strength and stiffness requirements.
[0036] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:
[0037] The present invention discloses a wall-mounted Z-type metal torsion tube damper seismic system and method, which adopts an all-metal structure system. This system avoids the leakage risk of traditional viscous dampers and improves the seismic performance of the building structure by uniformly consuming the energy of building vibration through the ingenious combination of metal structures.
[0038] Furthermore, the Z-type metal torsion tube damper, through the design and tight connection of the energy-dissipating torsion tube, force transmission plate, anti-torsion plate, and torsion tube sleeve, eliminates the influence of bending and shear effects on the deformation of the torsion tube under axial load. This ensures that the circular tube cross-section remains stable during the hysteretic energy dissipation period, guaranteeing energy dissipation efficiency and further improving the service life of the torsional energy dissipation damper. It also enhances the stability and vibration reduction performance of the wall-mounted Z-type metal torsion tube damper seismic system and method.
[0039] The flexible adjustment of parameters such as the inner and outer diameters of the torsion tubes and the center distance between the upper and lower torsion tubes allows the damping design of the main structure to independently design the damper yield load and yield displacement without being affected, so as to meet the differentiated needs of structural damping and facilitate construction personnel to adjust the construction according to the actual construction needs.
[0040] Furthermore, this seismic resistance system is designed based on the inter-story drift angle formed by the displacement between building floors under seismic loading. When the displacement exceeds the design yield displacement of the torsion tube damper, the torsion tube first enters the yielding stage, initiating plastic deformation to dissipate energy and reduce the damage of seismic energy to the main structure, thereby achieving the seismic resistance effect of the damper. This design method, by independently designing each component within the damper, allows for adjustments to the specifications of each component according to actual needs during the design process, greatly improving the design efficiency of the damping system. Moreover, the independent design of each component allows for the replacement of damaged parts during installation and use, avoiding the overall damping failure caused by component damage in traditional metal dampers, further extending the service life of the damping system.

[0054] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0055] Numerous specific details are set forth in the following description to enable those skilled in the art to fully understand the invention. However, the invention can be practiced in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of the invention.

[0058] like Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, a wall-mounted Z-type metal torsion tube damper seismic system is provided. The damper seismic system is installed within the seismic-resistant building frame structure to dissipate energy and reduce vibration through the plastic deformation of the components. The wall-mounted Z-type metal torsion tube damper seismic system includes: frame beam 2, frame column 1, cantilever wall 3 and Z-type metal torsion tube damper; frame beam 2 and frame column 1 are both connected to the building, cantilever wall 3 is connected to frame beam 2, and Z-type metal torsion tube damper is installed between pairs of cantilever walls 3 and is connected to cantilever wall 3 to dissipate the energy transmitted by cantilever wall 3.
[0059] In this embodiment, the seismic system of the wall-mounted Z-type metal torsion tube damper is achieved by placing the Z-type metal torsion tube damper between pairs of cantilever walls 3. This allows the vibration of the building to be transmitted to the Z-type metal torsion tube damper through the paired cantilever walls 3. The paired cantilever walls 3 are symmetrically arranged on the frame beams 2 at the upper and lower ends to ensure more uniform force transmission and avoid uneven tension and compression stress on the torsional energy-dissipating damper placed between the cantilever walls 3. The Z-type metal torsion tube damper adopts an all-metal structural system, eliminating the risk of leakage of viscous fluids. Through spatial design and optimization of the components, the damper's shape is made into a spatial Z-shape. Under seismic action, the core energy-dissipating element of the damper only undergoes torsion, generating reciprocating torsional deformation. The large torsional plastic deformation of the circular tube dissipates seismic energy, reducing the energy input of the earthquake to the main structure and improving the seismic performance of the structure. This system uses a Z-type metal torsion tube damper to replace the traditional soft steel metal damper and viscous damper for seismic design of building structures. It effectively solves the problem of poor low-cycle fatigue performance of traditional metal dampers, avoids the risk of oil leakage of viscous dampers, and improves the seismic performance of building structures.
[0060] See Figure 5 The Z-type metal torsion tube damper includes a pair of connecting components and a torsion tube energy dissipation component. The pair of connecting components are respectively connected to the cantilever walls 3 located on the upper and lower sides to transmit the energy of the cantilever walls 3. The two ends of the torsion tube energy dissipation component are respectively connected to the pair of connecting components to dissipate the energy transmitted by the connecting components. The torsion tube energy dissipation component includes a pair of force-transmitting connectors, a pair of energy-dissipating torsion tubes 7, a pair of anti-torsion plates 8, and a pair of torsion tube sleeves 9. The pair of force-transmitting connectors are respectively connected to the pair of connecting components. The pair of anti-torsion plates 8 are all connected to the pair of force-transmitting connectors and are arranged on both sides of the force-transmitting connectors to clamp the force-transmitting connectors. The pair of anti-torsion plates 8 are each provided with a pair of symmetrically distributed mounting holes. One end of the torsion tube sleeve 9 is fixedly set on the anti-torsion plate 8, and the other end of the torsion tube sleeve 9 is connected to the energy-dissipating torsion tube 7.
[0061] In this embodiment, the paired connecting components and the torsion tube energy dissipation components are preferably made of Q355 steel. The paired force transmission connectors, energy dissipation torsion tube 7, anti-torsion plate 8, and torsion tube sleeve 9 ensure that the energy dissipation torsion tube 7 has both energy dissipation performance and stable anti-torsion, further improving the stability of the energy dissipation torsion tube 7.
[0062] See Figure 3 and Figure 4 The force transmission connector includes a force transmission plate 6 and a connecting plate 11; the connecting plate 11 is fixedly connected to the force transmission plate 6, and the connecting plate 11 is connected to the connecting assembly to transmit the energy of vibration. The force transmission plate 6 is provided with a connecting hole 61 of the same size as the mounting hole. Pairs of anti-torsion plates 8 are clamped on both sides of the force transmission plate 6. The energy dissipation torsion tube 7 is welded to the connecting hole 61, and both ends of the energy dissipation torsion tube 7 pass through the mounting hole and are connected to the other end of the torsion tube sleeve 9. The energy dissipation torsion tube 7 is sleeved in the torsion tube sleeve 9.
[0063] In this embodiment, the force transmission plate 6 is preferably made of Q550 steel to transmit and bear the energy of building vibration, ensuring that the force transmission plate 6 has sufficient stiffness to resist seismic action and always operates in an elastic state, further ensuring the stability of the damper. The energy dissipation torsion tube 7, sleeved inside the torsion tube sleeve 9 and fixedly connected to the torsion tube sleeve 9, further eliminates the influence of bending and shear effects on the deformation of the torsion tube under axial load, ensuring that the circular tube cross-section remains stable during hysteretic energy dissipation, effectively improving energy dissipation efficiency.
[0064] like Figure 2As shown, the energy-consuming pipe fitting includes a force transmission plate connecting section 71, an energy-consuming section 72, and a twisted pipe end welding section 73. The energy-consuming sections 72 are symmetrically distributed in pairs on both sides of the force transmission plate connecting section 71, and each end of the energy-consuming section 72 is provided with a twisted pipe end welding section 73. The force transmission plate connecting section 71 is fixedly connected to the connecting hole 61 of the force transmission plate 6, and the twisted pipe end welding section 73 is fixedly connected to the twisted pipe sleeve 9.
[0065] In this embodiment, the energy dissipation sections 72, which are symmetrically distributed at both ends of the force transmission plate connection section 71, are arranged in a symmetrical manner so that the energy dissipation torsion tube 7 can not only have energy dissipation performance, but also ensure that the ultimate tensile and compressive forces of the energy dissipation torsion tube 7 are symmetrical. This avoids the loss and breakage caused by the asymmetrical tensile and compressive forces, and further improves the stability and energy dissipation performance of the energy dissipation torsion tube 7.

The calculated damper ratio Damping ratio compared to the Z-type metal torsion tube damper in the structural design phase In comparison, through parameter optimization and adjustment, the damper ratio error was controlled within 3% to meet the energy dissipation performance design requirements of the Z-type metal torsion tube damper.
[0085] In this embodiment, the wall-mounted Z-type metal torsion tube damper seismic system adopts all-metal components. It effectively solves the problems of poor durability and poor low-cycle fatigue performance of traditional viscous dampers and soft steel metal dampers by using the unique form of energy dissipation through the torsional deformation of the energy dissipation tube 7. A symmetrical cantilever wall 3 structure is set at the middle of the building frame structure. The wall-type Z-shaped metal torsion tube damper seismic system is installed between the upper and lower cantilever walls 3. Under the action of earthquake, the building floors will be displaced, forming an inter-story drift angle. The upper and lower cantilever walls 3 will be relatively displaced, which will act on the Z-shaped metal torsion tube damper. Under the action of external force, the Z-shaped metal torsion tube damper will move back and forth axially. When the displacement exceeds the design yield displacement of the Z-shaped metal torsion tube damper, the energy dissipation torsion tube 7 will first enter the yield stage and begin to produce plastic deformation to dissipate energy, so as to reduce the damage of earthquake energy to the main structure. During this process, the Z-shaped metal torsion tube damper continuously provides additional damping and additional stiffness to the building structure, so that the building structure has sufficient ability to resist earthquake action and reduce losses.
[0086] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the design of its energy dissipation section 72 is independent of other structures, which makes the design method of the wall-mounted Z-type metal torsion tube damper seismic system flexible and variable. Through the independent design of key parameters, the yield load and yield displacement can be adjusted to meet the structural vibration reduction design requirements and improve the vibration reduction design efficiency.
[0087] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0088] The above embodiments merely illustrate several implementation methods of the present invention, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all fall within the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of this invention patent should be determined by the appended claims.
