  • Publication number: 20020046677
    Abstract: A seismic isolation system is provided with a swing bearing ring consisting of an upper ring and a lower ring, which are rotatable relatively, between a crane body and a traveling means. A lower vertical shaft of a block pivotally supported on saddles of the crane body is supported by a swing bearing provided at an eccentric position on the upper ring. An automatic restoring mechanism is provided which restores the swing of a horizontal lever, whose proximal end is installed to the upper ring of the swing bearing ring, around the centerline C2.

  • Patent number: 5168967
    Abstract: Disclosed is a dynamic damper which is to absorb building vibrations in any horizontal directions, not restricted to one direction. For example, it comprises an oscillating body which is held to move horizontally, a plurality of ball screws which are arranged perpendicularly to each other with a height difference among them and which have a nut portion on the side of the oscillating body and a screw shaft engaging with said nut portion, and motors which reciprocate the oscillating body according to the period of vibration of the building by turning the ball screws.

  • Patent number: 5161809
    Abstract: A metal gasket includes plural functional layers formed with embossments along peripheral edges of cylinder openings thereof and a backup plate not formed with any embossment and sandwiched between the functional layers. At least one edge plate is provided which is spaced radially within and is coplanar with peripheral edges of cylinder openings of the backup plate. The edge plate is different in thickness from, generally thinner than, the backup plate. Grommets are provided to fasten together the edge plate and portions of the functional layers overlapping the edge plate. With this arrangement, by selecting thicknesses of the edge plate and the backup plate so as to be different between them by a requisite value, surface pressure at peripheral edges of cylinder openings of the metal gasket can be set a desired value. Therefore, this metal gasket is superior in sealing performance and uniformity.
