The invention belongs to the technical field of
vibration control, and discloses a tuned
mass damping device for controlling low-frequency vertical bending vortex vibration of a large-span bridge, which consists of a fixed
pulley, a
mass block, a high-strength light force
transmission cable, a spring, a hanging ring and a
damper. Fixed pulleys and
mass blocks are arranged at the positive and negative
maximum displacement positions of a longitudinal bridge direction mode of a main beam respectively, a suspension
system is formed by a full-length force
transmission cable, and the gravity of the two mass blocks is basically balanced; the mass block is connected through the spring and is close to the
bridge vibration control target frequency. When the bridge vibrates, the two mass blocks generate
inertia forces which are opposite in direction but overlapped with each other, the driving
system and the bridge form
resonance, and therefore
bridge vibration is effectively restrained. The gravity of the mass block can be self-balanced, the strength and the number of the springs are greatly reduced compared with those of a traditional TMD, any low-frequency tuning can be conducted in a vertical limited space, and the
engineering cost is remarkably reduced. The device can be used for controlling vertical bending and
torsional vibration of various
engineering structures; the
damper is replaced by an
actuator, so that
active control can be realized or the
damper can be used as a structural excitation device.
