Abstract: The present invention generally relates to the making of a base isolation device to be used for the protection of non-structural items and equipment. When the base plate, which is attached to the ground, moves with the ground earthquake shakings, the isolation plate, supported by the roller ball transfer bearings, rolls over the base plate and prevents the transfer of forces to the overlying equipment. Once the ground shaking ends, the tension springs or viscous dampers pull back the isolation plate to its original position, laterally and rotationally. The height of the isolation device could be as low as 3 inches.

Abstract: A dynamic balance type vertical vibration isolator includes slide blocks, balance springs, mass blocks, a fixed block, rotation shafts, stiffness-adjustable springs, etc. When an earthquake force is upward, the stiffness-adjustable springs are compressed, upward forces of the stiffness-adjustable springs are increased, meanwhile, the slide blocks and the mass blocks move away from the fixed block, the balance springs are stretched to generate pull forces, and the pull forces have vertically upward components, so as to reduce compression degrees of the stiffness-adjustable springs, and further to reduce the upward forces of the stiffness-adjustable springs.
