Therefore, various energy-consuming damping devices have been developed. Common friction dampers are mainly divided into: ordinary friction dampers, variable friction dampers, and self-resetting friction dampers. Friction dampers have stable hysteresis performance, strong energy dissipation capacity, easy use, low maintenance cost, and no need for external energy support. However, the SMA friction dampers currently developed are of various types, most of which are made of SMA wire (SMA bundles or SMA stranded wires), with complex structures, and limited friction energy dissipation and self-resetting capabilities. Therefore, they are rarely used in actual projects. Utility Model Content

[0034] The energy dissipation principle of the variable friction self-resetting SMA damper disclosed in the utility model includes the following steps:

[0035] In the initial state, no friction is generated between the first friction wedge slider 7, the second friction wedge slider 8, the third friction wedge slider 9, and between the first friction plate 2 and the second friction plate 6;

[0036] When the damper is pulled, the push-pull rod 5 pushes the second friction wedge slider 8 to move rightward and squeezes the first friction wedge slider 7 and the third friction wedge slider 9. At this time, the first friction wedge slider 7 and the third friction wedge slider 9 and the first friction plate 2 and the second friction plate 6 generate static friction, and the energy consumption is borne by the static friction.

[0037] When the tensile load exceeds the critical value, the second friction wedge slider 8 starts to move to the right, and at the same time pushes the first friction wedge slider 7 and the third friction wedge slider 9 to move to the right. The friction sliding device close to the vertical baffle 1 stops sliding to the right under the restriction of the limit device. The restoring force of the SMA rod 11 increases with the increase of the length. The greater the sliding friction between the first friction wedge slider 7 and the third friction wedge slider 9 and the first friction plate 2 and the second friction plate 6, the effect of variable friction sliding is achieved, and the energy consumption is borne by the sliding friction force and the restoring force of the SMA rod 11.

[0038] After unloading, due to the superelastic force of the SMA rod 11, the first friction wedge slider 7 and the third friction wedge slider 9 in the friction sliding device near the other end of the push-pull rod 5 are driven to move to the left, and then the second friction wedge slider 8 is driven to return to the initial position, showing the self-reset function;

[0039] When the damper is under compression, the energy dissipation principle is the same as when it is under tension.

[0040] Among them, the use of the limiting bolt 3 can not only provide a limiting effect but also increase the rigidity of the first friction plate 2 and the second friction plate 6, thereby increasing the energy consumption efficiency of the damper.

[0041] The above content is only for explaining the technical idea of ​​the utility model and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the utility model.
