  • Patent number: 12571447
    Abstract: Disclosed are a multi-directional broadband tuned mass damper and a design method thereof, since a first damping structure and a second damping structure are set on a rigid vibration damping frame, and the first damping structure is provided with a control main frequency, the second damping structure is provided with two control main frequencies, the control main frequency of the second damping structure is greater than that of the first damping structure; under the synergistic effect, the second damping structure mainly effectively broadens the control range for high frequencies, and a plurality of first damping structures control the control main frequency of a low frequency one-to-one, thereby controlling the full frequency, and the extension direction of the first damping structure is the same as that of the second damping structure on the rigid vibration damping frame, ensuring isotropic mass and stiffness distribution characteristics thereof; and furthermore, when using different control frequency range

  • Publication number: 20250237022
    Abstract: A stay cable lever mass damper is provided. The stay cable lever mass damper includes a support, a connecting piece, a main lever, a first damping device and a second damping device. The connecting piece is configured to connect with a stay cable; one end of the main lever is fixedly connected to the connecting piece, and the other end is rotatably connected to the support; the first damping device is connected to an upper end of the main lever and configured to mitigate in-plane vibration on the main lever; and the second damping device is connected to a lower end of the main lever and configured to mitigate out-of-plane vibration on the main lever. The vibration of the stay cable is transferred to the connecting piece through connecting the stay cable to the connecting piece.

  • Patent number: 10634205
    Abstract: The present invention discloses an ultra-low frequency (ULF) tuned liquid mass damper, and relates to the technical field of bridge vibration control. The tuned damper includes a damping box which is provided with a spring set secured at one end to the damping box, the other end connected with a mass block. The damping box is filled with damping liquid, and the mass block is completely immersed or partially immersed in the damping liquid. The damping ratio of the ULF tuned liquid mass damper ranges from 3% to 35%, and the inherent frequency 0.05 to 0.5 Hz. The ULF tuned liquid mass damper, according to the present invention, can fully utilize the additional mass of the damping liquid, and with the buoyancy effect of the liquid, maintain the frequency of structural vibration below 0.
