Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a seismic isolation damper mechanism provided between a lower structure and an upper structure. [Background technology]

[0002] The seismic isolation damper mechanism has a seismic isolation tamper installed between the lower structure and the upper structure supported on top of it via seismic isolation laminated rubber. During an earthquake, the seismic isolation damper's expansion and contraction action absorbs the vibration energy caused by the earthquake, ensuring the seismic resistance of the upper structure. The seismic isolation damper is positioned between the lower structure and the upper structure with its expansion and contraction direction facing horizontally.

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2016-79611 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] Therefore, a long horizontal space is required to install the seismic isolation dampers, and since the seismic isolation damper mechanism including the seismic isolation dampers is installed in multiple locations between the lower structure and the upper structure, there are cases where the seismic isolation damper mechanism cannot be installed depending on the specifications of the lower structure and the upper structure. This invention has been made in consideration of the above circumstances, and aims to provide a seismic isolation damper mechanism in which seismic isolation dampers can be installed without requiring a long horizontal space. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, one embodiment of the present invention is a seismic isolation damper mechanism that absorbs vibration energy of an upper structure on a lower structure by a seismic isolation damper having a link, a first member, and a second member, wherein a link support part and a damper support part are provided on the lower structure, an upper frame that functions as a support part that supports the link is provided at the bottom of the upper structure, the damper support part to which the first member is fixed so that the displacement direction of the second member is vertical, and the second member is arranged above the first member so as to appear and disappear relative to the first member. the damper support part is provided at a position different from that of the damper support part in the horizontal direction, a link support part is provided protruding above the damper support part, the upper base is provided at a position different from that of the damper support part in the horizontal direction and protruding at a position at which at least a part of the link support part overlaps, the link supports the upper part of the second member, the link support part, and the base so as to be able to swing, and the link rotates around the link support part to convert horizontal deformation into vertical deformation, and the damper expands and contracts in the vertical direction to absorb the vibration energy. Also, one embodiment of the present invention is characterized in that the link support part and the damper support part are integrated. In one embodiment of the present invention, the second member is provided with a damper pin, the link support is provided with a support shaft, and the upper frame is provided with an upper pin, the link is swingably supported by the link support via the support shaft, the link and the second member are connected via a first long groove provided in the link and the damper pin, and the link and the upper frame are connected via a second long groove provided in the link and the upper pin. In another embodiment of the present invention, the damper pin, the support shaft, and the upper pin are parallel to each other, the link support and the upper frame have a width along the longitudinal direction of the support shaft, and a pair of links are arranged at both ends of the link support and the upper frame in the width direction. In another embodiment of the present invention, the upper frame is arranged at the longitudinal center of the upper pin, and a first gap is secured between each pair of links and both ends of the upper frame in the width direction.In one embodiment of the present invention, first elastic members having a thickness along the longitudinal direction of the upper pin and leaving a second gap smaller than the first gap are disposed between both widthwise ends of the upper frame and the pair of links, the link support portion is disposed at the longitudinal center of the support shaft, and second elastic members are interposed between the pair of links and both widthwise ends of the link support portion. In another embodiment of the present invention, a portion of the first member is disposed below the surface of the substructure portion via the damper support portion. In another embodiment of the present invention, the damper support portion is located directly above the foundation pile and connected to the foundation pile. [Effects of the Invention]

[0006] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the seismic isolation damper is arranged to extend vertically, so that the horizontal area occupied by the seismic isolation damper is extremely small. Therefore, even when the specifications of the substructure and the superstructure do not allow for a long horizontal space for the seismic isolation damper, a space-saving seismic isolation damper mechanism can be provided. Furthermore, compared to conventional seismic isolation damper mechanisms in which multiple seismic isolation dampers extend horizontally, a larger number of seismic isolation damper mechanisms according to one embodiment of the present invention can be arranged. Furthermore, by integrating the damper support portion and the link support portion, a single support member is sufficient for installing the seismic isolation damper mechanism, which is advantageous in simplifying the installation of the seismic isolation damper mechanism. Furthermore, by arranging the link support portion so that it partially overlaps with the upper frame, the upper frame and the link support portion can be connected via the shortest distance, which is advantageous in installing the seismic isolation damper mechanism in a narrow space. Furthermore, arranging a pair of links at both widthwise ends of the link support and the upper frame facilitates swing of the links when the upper structure is displaced horizontally relative to the lower structure, advantageously converting lateral vibrations into vertical vibrations and absorbing them with the seismic isolation damper, which expands and contracts vertically. Furthermore, providing a first gap between the pair of links and the upper frame allows the upper frame to move along the longitudinal direction of the upper pin when the upper structure is displaced longitudinally of the support shaft relative to the lower structure, advantageously increasing the durability of the seismic isolation damper mechanism. Furthermore, arranging a first elastic member between the pair of links and both widthwise ends of the upper frame is advantageous in that the first elastic member can absorb the impact when the upper structure is displaced longitudinally of the support shaft relative to the lower structure in the event of a collision between the upper frame and the link. Furthermore, interposing a second elastic member between the pair of links and both widthwise ends of the link support is advantageous in that the impact when the link is displaced longitudinally of the support shaft relative to the lower structure in the event of a collision between the link and the link support is advantageous. In addition, a portion of the first member can be positioned below the surface of the lower structural part via the damper support part, which increases the range of motion of the seismic isolation damper that can be placed in a limited space, which is advantageous for absorbing large vibration energy.In addition, by positioning the damper support part directly above the foundation pile and connecting the damper support part to the foundation pile, the damper support part of the first member is firmly supported by the foundation pile, which is advantageous for the seismic isolation damper to absorb large vibration energy.

[0008] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. First, a first embodiment will be described with reference to Figs. 1 to 7. As shown in Figs. 1 and 2, an upper structure 6 is seismically supported on a lower structure 2 via a plurality of seismic isolation damper mechanisms 4. In this embodiment, the lower structure 2 is a seismic isolation pit constructed in the ground, and the seismic isolation pit is configured to include a base plate 2A and a retaining wall (not shown) that rises from the periphery of the base plate 2A, and the upper structure 6 is a building.

[0009] As shown in FIG. 3 , the seismic isolation damper mechanism 4 includes a seismic isolation damper 8, a link 10, a damper support 12, a link support 14, an upper frame 16, a support shaft 18, a damper pin 20, and an upper pin 22. The damper support 12, the link support 14, and the upper frame 16 are made of concrete blocks or steel blocks, and the link 10, the support shaft 18, the damper pin 20, and the upper pin 22 are made of steel. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 , the seismic isolation damper 8 includes a first member 801 and a second member 802 for absorbing energy. In this embodiment, an oil damper 8A is used as the seismic isolation damper 8; however, various types of conventionally known dampers, such as friction dampers, can be used as long as they absorb energy; the seismic isolation damper 8 is not limited to the oil damper 8A. The oil damper 8A comprises a cylinder case 801A, a piston (not shown) incorporated into the cylinder case 801A so as to be able to move back and forth linearly, and a piston rod 802A connected to the piston and protruding from the cylinder case 801A; energy is absorbed when the piston rod 802A is displaced relative to the cylinder case 801A, i.e., when the oil damper 8A expands and contracts.

[0010] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the damper support portion 12 protrudes upward from the base plate 2A. The damper support portion 12 fixes the displacement direction of the piston rod 802A relative to the cylinder case 801A in the vertical direction and supports the cylinder case 801A so that it cannot move. The upper end of the cylinder case 801A, which is one of its longitudinal ends, protrudes beyond the upper surface of the damper support portion 12, and almost the entire longitudinal length of the cylinder case 801A is embedded in the damper support portion 12. The piston rod 802A protrudes upward from the upper end of the cylinder case 801A and its longitudinal direction extends vertically. Since the cylinder case 801A is supported so that it cannot move by the damper support portion 12, the piston rod 802A is positioned above the cylinder case 801A so as to protrude and retract relative to the cylinder case 801A. The damper pin 20, which extends horizontally, is inserted into a bracket 804A and is provided at the upper end of the piston rod 802A. The initial position of the damper pin 20 is set to be located in the center of the longitudinal direction, but the damper pin 20 is fixed rotatably within the bracket 804A, and its position is attached so that the swing range can be set depending on the vibration energy to be absorbed.

[0011] The link support portion 14 protrudes upward from the base plate 2A of the lower structure 2 at a different horizontal position from the damper support portion 12. Preferably, the link support portion 14 is formed integrally with the damper support portion 12. Forming the link support portion 14 as an integral portion is advantageous in terms of strength. The link support portion 14 supports the link 10 so that it can swing by rotating it around a support shaft 18. The support shaft 18 is provided at the top of the link support portion 14. The support shaft 18 is supported immovably in the longitudinal direction by the link support portion 14 and extends horizontally, with both longitudinal ends of the support shaft 18 protruding from both ends of the link support portion 14. As shown in FIG. 3 , the widths of the damper support portion 12 and the link support portion 14 along the longitudinal direction of the support shaft 18 are the same, and the height of the link support portion 14 from the base plate 2A is higher than that of the damper support portion 12. The link support portion 14 may be provided as a separate structure from the damper support portion 12. Providing the link support portion 14 as a separate structure is advantageous in that it makes it easier to adjust the height position of the support shaft 18. The link support portion 14 may also be provided on the damper support portion 12. A mechanism for adjusting the height position of the support shaft 18 can be provided.

[0012] As shown in FIG. 1 , the upper platform 16 protrudes downward from the bottom of the upper structure 6 at a location different in horizontal position from the damper support 12. The upper pin 22 is provided at the bottom of the upper platform 16 and extends horizontally. When the seismic isolation damper mechanism 4 is stationary, the upper platform 16 is located directly above the link support 14 or at least partially overlaps with it in a plan view. In this embodiment, an example is described in which the upper platform 16 is located directly above the link support 14 with a gap between it and the link support 14. In other words, the upper platform 16 is located at the same horizontal position as the link support 14. The upper platform 16 functions as a support for the link 10. As shown in FIG. 2 , the width of the upper platform 16 along the longitudinal direction of the upper pin 22 is smaller than the width of the link support 14. The upper pin 22 is supported at its longitudinal center by the upper frame 16, and both longitudinal sides of the upper pin 22 protrude from both widthwise ends of the upper frame 16. The upper pin 22 is supported by the upper frame 16 so as to be movable in its longitudinal direction. The damper pin 20, support shaft 18, and upper pin 22 extend horizontally and parallel to one another, and the lengths of the damper pin 20, support shaft 18, and upper pin 22 are approximately the same and are set to be larger than the width of the link support part 14.

[0013] A pair of links 10 are provided on both sides of the link support portion 14 and the upper frame 16 in the width direction. 1, the link 10 has a support shaft insertion hole 1002, which is formed by the inner peripheral surface of a bearing (not shown) incorporated in the link 10, and both ends of a support shaft 18 are inserted into the support shaft insertion holes 1002 of a pair of links 10, and the pair of links 10 are arranged so that they face each other and can swing around the support shaft 18. In addition, as shown in FIG. 2, a washer, nut 1802, etc. (not shown) are attached to the end of the support shaft 18 protruding from the link 10 to prevent the link 10 from falling off the support shaft 18.

[0014] In this embodiment, the link 10 includes a first arm 10A and a second arm 10B extending in directions perpendicular to each other. A shaft insertion hole 1002 is provided at the intersection of the first arm 10A and the second arm 10B, a first long groove 1004 is provided at the tip of the first arm 10A, and a second long groove 1006 is provided at the tip of the second arm 10B. The center line of the first long groove 1004 and the center line of the second long groove 1006 intersect at the center of the shaft 18 (the shaft insertion hole 1002), and the angle at which these center lines intersect is approximately right angle. By making this angle approximately right angle, the size of the link 10 can be minimized without degrading its functionality. A damper pin 20 is inserted into the first long groove 1004 so as to be movable in the longitudinal direction of the first long groove 1004, and a washer and a nut (not shown) are attached to the end of the damper pin 20 protruding from the first long groove 1004, thereby preventing the first arm 10A from falling off the damper pin 20. An upper pin 22 is inserted into the second long groove 1006 so as to be movable in the longitudinal direction of the second long groove 1006, and as shown in FIG. 2, a washer and a nut 2202 (not shown) are attached to the end of the upper pin 22 protruding from the second long groove 1006, thereby preventing the second arm 10B from falling off the upper pin 22. Therefore, by providing the first long groove 1004 and the second long groove 1006, the link 10 is supported so as to be able to swing by the link support part 14, and is connected to the second member 802 and the upper frame 16, so that the vibration energy caused by the horizontal displacement of the upper structural part 6 relative to the lower structural part 2 can be converted into a vertical energy and absorbed by swinging the piston rod 802A in the vertical direction.

[0015] As shown in FIG. 2 , the upper platform 16 is disposed at the longitudinal center of the upper pin 22, and a first gap S1 is provided between each of the pair of links 10 and both widthwise ends of the upper platform 16. A first elastic member 24, which has a thickness along the longitudinal direction of the upper pin 22 and leaves a second gap S2 smaller than the first gap S1, is attached to the upper pin 22 between each widthwise end of the upper platform 16 and the pair of links 10. That is, the first elastic member 24, which has a thickness along the longitudinal direction of the upper pin 22, is disposed between each widthwise end of the upper platform 16 and the pair of links 10. The link support 14 is disposed at the longitudinal center of the support shaft 18, and a third gap S3 is provided between each widthwise end of the pair of links 10 and the link support 14. A second elastic member 26, which has a thickness along the longitudinal direction of the support shaft 18 and closes the third gap S3, is attached to the support shaft 18 at the location of the third gap S3. The first and second elastic members 26 are attached to the opposing surfaces of the pair of links 10. The first and second elastic members 26 can be made of an elastic material such as rubber.

[0016] As shown in Fig. 1, in the initial position of link 10, when upper structure 6 is not displaced relative to base plate 2A, first arm 10A extends horizontally and second arm 10B extends vertically. Then, as shown in Figs. 4 and 5, if upper structure 6 is displaced horizontally relative to base plate 2A in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of support shaft 18, such as during an earthquake, second arm 10B swings around support shaft 18 as a fulcrum via upper pin 22 and second long groove 1006. This swing causes first arm 10A to swing integrally with this swing via damper pin 20 and first long groove 1004, and piston rod 802A extends and retracts relative to cylinder case 801A. The vibration energy of upper structure 6 is absorbed by the extension and contraction of seismic isolation damper 8, ensuring the seismic resistance of upper structure 6.

[0017] According to this embodiment, the oil damper 8A is disposed so as to extend vertically, and therefore the horizontal area occupied by the oil damper 8A is extremely small. Therefore, unlike conventional methods, a long horizontal space is not required for disposing the oil damper 8A, and the seismic isolation damper mechanism 4 using the oil damper 8A can be disposed in a small space. Furthermore, the small horizontal area occupied by the oil damper 8A allows for a larger number of seismic isolation damper mechanisms 4 to be disposed. Furthermore, although the damper support portion 12 supporting the cylinder case 801A and the link support portion 14 supporting the link 10 to be swingably supported may be configured separately, integrating the damper support portion 12 and the link support portion 14 as in this embodiment allows for the seismic isolation damper mechanism 4 to be disposed by simply installing a single support member, in which the damper support portion 12 and the link support portion 14 are integrated, on the base panel 2A. This improves the structural strength and ease of installation of the seismic isolation damper mechanism 4 and simplifies installation.

[0018] Furthermore, although upper platform 16 and link support portion 14 may be disposed at different locations in the horizontal direction, disposing upper platform 16 directly above link support portion 14, as in this embodiment, allows the lengths of first arm 10A and second arm 10B to be shortened, which is advantageous in reducing the installation area of ​​seismic isolation damper mechanism 4. Furthermore, when link 10 rotates around support shaft 18 on which it is supported, damper pin 20 swings within first long groove 1004 provided in first arm 10A, and upper pin 22 swings within second long groove 1006 provided in second arm 10B, thereby enabling horizontal vibrations to be smoothly transmitted to the seismic isolation damper.

[0019] Furthermore, although the first gap S1 may be omitted, if the first gap S1 is secured between the pair of links 10 and the upper frame 16, as shown in Figure 6, when the lower structural part 2 and the upper structural part 6 are displaced relative to each other in the longitudinal direction of the support shaft 18, the upper frame 16 can be allowed to move along the longitudinal direction of the upper pin 22, and the shaking in the longitudinal direction of the support shaft 18 can be absorbed.

[0020] Furthermore, if first elastic members 24 having a thickness along the longitudinal direction of the upper pins 22 are disposed at the locations of the upper pins 22 between the pair of links 10 and both widthwise ends of the upper frame 16, when the upper structure 6 is displaced in the longitudinal direction of the support shaft 18 relative to the lower structure 2, as shown in FIG. 6 , the first elastic members 24 can absorb the impact of a collision between the upper frame 16 and the links 10, which is advantageous in improving the durability of the seismic isolation damper mechanism 4. In addition, in this embodiment, the first elastic members 24 are disposed by attaching them to the upper pins 22, which is advantageous in simplifying the arrangement of the first elastic members 24. Furthermore, if second elastic members 26 are disposed between the pair of links 10 and both widthwise ends of the link supports 14, when the upper structure 6 is displaced in the longitudinal direction of the support shaft 18 relative to the lower structure 2 as described above, the second elastic members 26 can absorb the impact of a collision between the links 10 and the link supports 14 due to movement of the upper frame 16.

[0021] Furthermore, by providing a small gap between the inner peripheral surface of the shaft insertion hole 1002 of the shaft 18 of the link support part 14 and the outer peripheral surface of the shaft 18, and also between the outer peripheral surfaces of the damper pin 20 and upper pin 22 inserted into the first long groove 1004 and the second long groove 1006, it is possible to allow the link 10 to tilt when the upper platform 16 moves in the longitudinal direction of the shaft 18 and also moves slightly in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the shaft 18 (see FIGS. 7A and 7B), thereby absorbing vibration energy received from various directions. In this case, attaching a second elastic member 26 to the shaft 18 to close the third gap S3 is advantageous in preventing direct collision between the link 10 and the link support part 14.

[0022] Next, a second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 8 . In the following embodiment, the same components and parts as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and their description will be omitted or simplified. The following description will focus on the differences from the first embodiment. In the first embodiment, the lower end of the cylinder case 801A is positioned above the upper surface of the base plate 2A, i.e., the surface of the lower structure 2. In the second embodiment, the lower end of the cylinder case 801A is positioned below the surface of the lower structure 2. In the second embodiment, a larger seismic isolation damper can be used, which can absorb more vibration energy than the seismic isolation damper mechanism 4 described in the first embodiment. However, using a larger seismic isolation damper results in a greater force being applied to the lower end of the cylinder case 801A.

[0023] As a countermeasure, by positioning the damper support part 12 directly above the foundation pile 28 and connecting the damper support part to the foundation pile 28, the force generated at the lower end of the cylinder case 801A is firmly supported by the foundation pile 28, which is advantageous for absorbing the large force generated in the seismic isolation damper. By considering the damper support part 12 and the foundation pile 28 as a single unit in this way, the foundation pile 28 can be given the function of the damper support part 12. As a result, it is advantageous for disposing a space-saving seismic isolation damper mechanism 4 even in the limited space formed by the lower structure part 2 and the upper structure part 6.

[0024] In this embodiment, the link 10 is described as being composed of a first arm 10A and a second arm 10B that are perpendicular to each other, but the shape of the link 10 is arbitrary, and it may be formed into a triangular shape as shown in Fig. 9, or a quarter circle formed by two radii that are perpendicular to each other, but using the embodiment as in this case is advantageous in terms of reducing weight. Furthermore, the seismic isolation damper mechanism 4 may be provided between the building and the foundation as in the embodiment, or may be provided on an intermediate floor of the building, and the present invention is of course applicable to such cases as well.
