AI Technical Summary
Existing buckling-restrained bracing structures in large dust collectors only have a single yield point. After yielding, the stiffness decreases, which cannot effectively prevent structural deformation. Furthermore, they cannot yield and dissipate energy in stages under different earthquake intensities, making the structure prone to damage.
A two-stage yielding energy dissipation support structure is adopted. By combining the energy dissipation damper with the core rod, and taking advantage of the difference in yield points of different steels, the energy dissipation damper yields first during small earthquakes, and the core rod undergoes multi-wave buckling deformation during large earthquakes, thus achieving two-stage energy dissipation and absorbing seismic energy.
It effectively prevents large dust collectors from deforming, twisting, and breaking under earthquakes, maintains stable operation of internal components, significantly reduces the impact of seismic forces, and adapts to energy consumption requirements under different earthquake intensities.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of energy-dissipating support structure technology, and in particular to a two-stage yielding energy-dissipating support suitable for large dust collector structures. Background Technology
[0002] Dust collectors are characterized by their large size and significant weight, making them particularly susceptible to stress under seismic forces. Especially at structural connections, such as beam-column joints and the connection between supports and the main structure, stress concentration can easily lead to problems like weld cracking and loose bolts. These issues not only weaken the overall structural stability but can also trigger a chain reaction, causing the entire dust collector to fail, resulting in serious consequences such as environmental pollution and production disruptions.
[0003] To enhance the seismic performance of dust collectors and reduce the damage to their structures caused by dynamic loads such as earthquakes, installing buckling-resistant and energy-dissipating braces has become an effective technical means.
[0004] However, existing buckling-restrained brace structures used in dust collectors are relatively simple in design and functionally limited, possessing only a single yield point. When this brace structure yields, its stiffness decreases significantly, and after yielding, it is difficult to effectively curb the rapid escalation of deformation in the overall dust collector structure (especially critical load-bearing parts). Furthermore, existing traditional buckling-restrained brace structures cannot meet the requirements of dust collectors to undergo phased yielding and energy dissipation when subjected to earthquakes of varying intensities, such as minor (e.g., wind-induced vibration), moderate, and major earthquakes.

In this way, the energy dissipation damper and the core rod realize double stage energy dissipation by yielding in turn, and improve the seismic performance of the whole support system.

[0033] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0034] See Figures 1-7 This utility model provides a two-stage yielding energy dissipation support suitable for large dust collector structures, comprising:
[0035] A square steel pipe 1 has fixing holes b81 on its upper and lower sides and a fixing hole a82 on its right end. A first groove 11 and a second groove 12 are respectively provided at the middle of the upper and lower ends of the square steel pipe 1. A rectangular extension steel 13 is provided at the middle of the front and rear left ends, and several fixing holes c32 are provided on the extension steel 13.
[0036] The core rod 2 has a rectangular core plate 21 in the middle and reinforcing ribs 23 at both ends.
[0037] The web of the movable I-beam 3 extends to the right, forming an overhanging steel 31. Several fixing holes a82 are provided at the upper and lower flanges of the movable I-beam 3, and several fixing holes c32 are also provided at its web position. Several fixing holes c32 are provided at the bottom and top of the energy-dissipating damper 10. Energy-dissipating dampers 10 are installed on the left and right sides of the web of the movable I-beam 3 (the structure of the energy-dissipating damper 10 is similar to two I-beams connected at the bottom but not at the top).
[0038] A long I-beam 8 has an internal movable cavity 83. The long I-beam 8 is housed within a square steel tube 1. The extended steel 31 of a movable I-beam 3 is inserted into the movable cavity 83. A certain distance is maintained between the upper and lower flanges of the movable I-beam 3 and the upper and lower flanges of the long I-beam 8; they are not tightly connected. A core rod 2 is inserted into the square steel tube 1 and covers the upper and lower surfaces of the long I-beam 8 and the movable I-beam 3. Reinforcing ribs 23 on the core rod are respectively engaged in the first groove 11 and the second groove 12 of the square steel tube 1.

[0041] In some embodiments, see Figure 3 The device also includes a pad for supporting the core rod 2, thereby making it easier for the reinforcing ribs 23 on the core rod 2 to be exposed from the first groove 11 and the second groove 12.
[0042] The pads may include a core rod side plate 6, a first core rod pad 7, and a second core rod pad 9. The core rod side plate 6 has equally spaced fixing holes b81 located on both sides of the rectangular core plate 21 and inserted into the square steel tube 1, simultaneously covering the edges of the upper and lower flanges of the long I-beam 8. The square steel tube 1, the core rod side plate 6, and the long I-beam 8 are secured with bolts b50 passing through their respective fixing holes b81 and nuts b5. The first core rod pad 7 has several fixing holes a82 and covers the left end of the movable I-beam 3. The second core rod pad 9 also has several equally sized fixing holes a82 and covers the right end of the long I-beam 8.
[0043] See Figure 4 The core rod 2 includes a core plate 21 with a rectangular cross-section, and transition plates 22 with isosceles trapezoidal cross-sections connected to both sides of the rectangular core plate 21. The upper side of the isosceles trapezoid of the transition plate 22 is equal to the width of the rectangular core plate 21, and the lower side is connected to a reinforcing fixing plate 24 with a rectangular cross-section. A reinforcing rib 23 perpendicular to both the reinforcing fixing plate 24 and the transition plate 22 is also provided on the same side, and the reinforcing rib 23 is located at the center line of both.
[0044] See Figure 7 The reinforcing plates 24 at both ends of the core rod 2 have several fixing holes a82. The reinforcing plate 24 at the left end of the core rod 2 covers the first core rod pad 7, and is fixedly connected to the left end of the core rod 2, the first core rod pad 7, and the movable I-beam 3 by bolts a40 passing through the fixing holes a82 on the left end reinforcing plate 24, the first core rod pad 7, and the movable I-beam 3 with nuts a4. The reinforcing plate 24 at the right end of the core rod 2 covers the second core rod pad 9, and is fixedly connected to the square steel tube 1, the right end of the core rod 2, the second core rod pad 9, and the long I-beam 8 by bolts a40 passing through the fixing holes a82 on the square steel tube 1, the right end of the core rod 2, the second core rod pad 9, and the long I-beam 8 with nuts a4.
[0045] The principle of this invention: This invention provides a dual-stage yielding energy-dissipating support suitable for large dust collector structures, which can be installed on the top, side, and bottom according to the applicable conditions of the dust collector. It combines an energy-dissipating damper 10 with a core rod 2. The web of the energy-dissipating damper 10 is made of low-yield-point steel. When the support is subjected to axial force, a displacement difference occurs between the upper and lower end plates of the energy-dissipating damper 10, causing the web to deform. Under frequent and design earthquakes, the energy-dissipating damper 10 undergoes the first stage of yielding, increasing structural damping, and the support is in the elastic stage, reducing seismic response. Under design and rare earthquakes, the core rod 2 undergoes multi-wave buckling deformation to dissipate energy. At this time, the energy-dissipating damper 10 participates in auxiliary energy dissipation, undergoing the second stage of yielding, and the support enters the plastic stage, dissipating more seismic energy. By utilizing the difference in strength between different steels, the yield displacements of the two components differ, ultimately achieving the purpose of dual-stage energy dissipation. Furthermore, this support uses a double core rod 2 arrangement, resulting in greater stiffness and stronger energy dissipation capacity.
[0046] Regarding constrained buckling behavior: The buckling behavior of the support member is restricted by the outer square steel tube 1, so that it will not buckle instability when under stress, but will absorb seismic energy in a stable energy dissipation manner.
[0047] Through the above-described method, this utility model provides a dual-stage yielding energy-dissipating brace suitable for large dust collector structures, exhibiting excellent energy dissipation capabilities. During use, the dual-stage energy-dissipating brace functions differently depending on the earthquake intensity. When the earthquake intensity is low, the brace operates in the first stage, providing additional damping to the structure and reducing its seismic response. When the earthquake intensity is high, the brace enters the second stage, where the energy-dissipating elements of the second stage begin to work, further dissipating energy. Simultaneously, the residual deformation of the brace after unloading is controlled within an acceptable range, preventing excessive residual deformation after the earthquake and effectively reducing the structure's seismic response, protecting the main structure of the dust collector from severe damage. As a core component, the buckling-resistance brace, through reasonable design and construction, avoids the buckling phenomenon that traditional braces are prone to under compression, thus ensuring stable mechanical properties under tensile and compressive cyclic loads and providing reliable lateral force resistance and energy dissipation capabilities.
[0048] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
