Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of building vibration reduction technology, specifically to a reinforcement structure for the installation of viscous dampers. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing demand for seismic mitigation in high-rise buildings, viscous dampers, as a highly efficient seismic-resistant tool, are widely used in high-rise buildings to provide the necessary buffering and stability during earthquakes. These support structures, mainly composed of buffer springs, pistons, and telescopic devices, play a crucial role in the construction industry. Traditionally, seismic-resistant building design relies on enhancing the rigidity and strength of the structure itself to withstand the effects of natural disasters such as earthquakes, wind, snow pressure, or tsunamis. However, because the intensity and characteristics of these natural disasters are difficult to predict, structures designed using traditional seismic-resistant methods lack self-regulating capabilities, potentially leading to severe economic losses and casualties in the event of a strong earthquake.
[0003] Several practical problems were encountered during the installation of the viscous damper. For example, if leveling was inconvenient at one end, it could prolong the installation process and consume additional resources. Furthermore, after prolonged use, the side of the connecting pin seat might warp during piston reciprocating motion, and the bolts used for fixing at the bottom might loosen. This not only affects the intended support effect of the viscous damper but could also pose safety hazards. Utility Model Content

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the end of the slide rail away from the first slider is fixedly connected to the fourth fixing block, and the other end of the fourth fixing block is fixedly connected to the first fixing ring.

[0020] The utility model will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:
[0021] Example 1
[0022] refer to Figures 1 to 3 The first embodiment includes a first support frame 1, which is fixedly connected to a first support column 2. The lower end of the first support column 2 is fixedly connected to a first fixing block 3. The lower end of the first fixing block 3 is provided with a leveling device and a protective device. The rotating plate 4 on the leveling device is rotatably connected to a first rotating shaft 8 through a sliding bearing. The middle end of the first rotating shaft 8 is fixedly connected to a second fixing block 7. One side of the second fixing block 7 is fixedly connected to a piston rod 25. The upper end of the rotating plate 4 is fixedly connected to a fifth fixing block 18. The end of the fifth fixing block 18 away from the rotating plate 4 is connected to a screw post 17 through a first nut 16 and a second nut 5. The lower end of the screw post 17 is fixedly connected to a third fixing ring 14. The lower end of the third fixing ring 14 is fixedly connected to a housing 21.
[0023] In this embodiment, during installation, the first nut 16 is removed, the first support frame 1 and the first support column 2 are placed in cement, the fifth fixing block 18 on the rotating plate 4 is adjusted to a suitable position by the second nut 5, and the first nut 16 is screwed on to complete the leveling, thus saving installation time.
[0024] Example 2
[0025] refer to Figures 1 to 3Example 2 further illustrates Example 1, including a protective device. A second fixing ring 10 on the protective device is fixedly connected to a housing 21. A third fixing block 9 is fixedly connected to one side of the second fixing ring 10. A first slider 11 is fixedly connected to the front end of the third fixing block 9. A second slider 12 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the first slider 11. The second slider 12 is slidably connected to a slide rail 13. A fourth fixing block 15 is fixedly connected to the end of the slide rail 13 away from the first slider 11. A first fixing ring 6 is fixedly connected to the other end of the fourth fixing block 15. A piston rod 25 is fixedly connected to the first fixing ring 6. The piston rod 25 is slidably connected to the housing 21. A first piston 23 and a second piston 24 are fixedly connected to the piston rod 25. A sealing cover 22 is fixedly connected to the left side of the housing 21. The first piston 23 and the second piston 24 are slidably connected to the housing 21. The first piston 23 divides the interior of the housing 21 into a third piston chamber 19 and a fourth piston chamber 20.
[0026] In this embodiment, during an earthquake, the piston rod 25 drives the first fixing ring 6, the first fixing ring 6 drives the fourth fixing block 15, the fourth fixing block 15 drives the slide rail 13 to move, the slide rail 13 moves along the second slider 12, so that the piston rod 25 enters the outer shell 21 horizontally, reducing the wear of the piston rod 25.
[0027] In practical applications, during installation, the first nut 16 is first removed, and the first support frame 1 and the first support column 2 are placed into the pre-prepared cement base to ensure structural stability. By adjusting the second nut 5, the fifth fixing block 18 on the rotating plate 4 can be flexibly adjusted to a suitable position to adapt to different site level requirements. Once the position is adjusted, the first nut 16 is tightened for fixation, thus completing the quick and precise leveling work, greatly saving installation time and ensuring the stability and safety of the equipment after installation. When an earthquake occurs, the piston rod 25, as a key component for earthquake resistance, begins to function. Under the action of seismic force, the piston rod 25 first drives the first fixing ring 6 to move, which in turn drives the fourth fixing block 15, causing the entire slide rail 13 system to move accordingly. The slide rail 13 slides along the second slider 12 to ensure that the piston rod 25 can smoothly and horizontally enter the housing 21. This design not only helps reduce the wear of the piston rod 25 and extend its service life, but also effectively absorbs and disperses seismic energy, protecting the building from damage.
