Definitions

  • STRUCTURE DAMPER FOR PROTECTING STRUCTURES AGAINST VIBRATION AND STRUCTURE WITH SUCH STRUCTURE DAMPER
  • the present invention relates to a structure damper for protecting structures against vibrations. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a structure with such a structure damper.
  • Slender buildings such as high-rise buildings (residential, office, hotel use) or other slender structures (wind turbines, observation towers, etc.) are stimulated to horizontal vibrations by wind excitation.
  • the usual countermeasure is the installation of a vibration damper in the form of the Tuned Mass Damper (TMD), which reduces the building vibrations (displacement and acceleration) via its pendulum mass coupled to the building by means of damping elements and rigidity elements.
  • TMD Tuned Mass Damper
  • Such building dampers are already known in various forms from the prior art.
  • the mass of the TMD is suspended from cables or pendulum rods as a transverse pendulum.
  • the mass of the TMD is suspended as a physical pendulum with a pendulum rod with a cardan joint.
  • the TMD types mentioned can be designed in such a way that the horizontal building vibrations are reduced in a horizontal direction, in two mutually orthogonal directions or in any direction of the plane.
  • the damping elements as well as the spring elements are installed horizontally between the TMD mass and the structure, whereby the damping elements are proportional to the relative speed of the TMD mass to the building mass and the spring elements are proportional to the relative displacement of the TMD mass to the building mass.
  • the goal of these solutions is that the horizontal force of the damping elements adjusts the damping of the TMD mass in the horizontal direction and the horizontal force of the spring elements adjusts the natural frequency of the TMD mass in the horizontal direction.
  • the mass of the TMD can be mounted horizontally on rollers or on a sliding plane.
  • a nested pendulum is provided in which a second frame with a pendulum mass attached is suspended from the outer cables.
  • Another variant considers a pendulum mass suspension by means of cables inclined outwards.
  • the entire pendulum mass is based on a hanging pendulum mass and a pendulum mass mounted on pendulum supports is divided, both masses are coupled via a coupling rod.
  • the pendulum mass mounted on the pendulum supports acts as an inverse pendulum, which produces a negative stiffness force.
  • This negative stiffness force together with the positive stiffness force of the suspended pendulum mass results in an overall small stiffness force, whereby the natural frequency of the entire TMD can be very low.
  • This type of TMD is called "Compound TMD”.
  • the damping elements and the spring elements are always arranged between the pendulum mass and the structure, whereby the damping elements are proportional to the relative speed of the TMD mass to the building mass and the spring elements are proportional to the relative displacement of the TMD mass work towards the building mass.
  • the building dampers described above are associated with increased effort and still require a large installation space within the building to be protected.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to provide an improved building damper for protecting buildings against vibrations, which requires little installation space or is constructed as compactly and simply as possible and at the same time works reliably. Furthermore, it is the object of the present invention to provide a structure with such a structure damper.
  • the structure damper according to the invention for protecting structures against vibrations thus has a first pendulum with a first pendulum mass, a second pendulum with a second pendulum mass, a coupling device and a damping device.
  • the coupling device is arranged between the first pendulum mass and the second pendulum mass and is designed in such a way that the first pendulum mass is coupled to the second pendulum mass in a direction of action of the structure damper and a relative movement between the first pendulum mass and the second pendulum mass in a direction of movement running at an angle to the direction of action is allowed.
  • the structural damper is characterized in that the damping device is arranged between the first pendulum mass and the second pendulum mass and is designed such that the relative movement in the direction of movement between the first pendulum mass and the second pendulum mass is damped.
  • the coupling of the first pendulum mass to the second pendulum mass in the direction of action of the structure damper has the effect that a relative movement in the direction of action between the first pendulum mass and the second pendulum mass is prevented.
  • the relative movement in the direction of movement between the first pendulum mass and the second pendulum mass is not limited to pure movements in this direction.
  • the relative movement in the direction of movement also includes movements that contain a component in the direction of movement. With others A height offset in the direction of movement between the first pendulum mass and the second pendulum mass, which changes with the movement, is decisive.
  • This also includes movements in which the first pendulum mass is tilted in relation to the second pendulum mass, so that only partial areas of the first pendulum mass execute a relative movement in the direction of movement compared to partial areas of the second pendulum mass.
  • the direction of movement runs perpendicular to the direction of action.
  • the effective direction of the building damper preferably has a horizontal component or runs in the horizontal direction.
  • the structure damper is designed to protect the structure against horizontally occurring vibrations or vibrations with a horizontal component.
  • the direction of movement preferably has a vertical component or runs in the vertical direction.
  • the structural damper is optimally matched to the typical movements of a pendulum.
  • the first pendulum is a hanging pendulum, preferably having a wire suspension or pendulum rod suspension.
  • the hanging pendulum can be of any type.
  • the hanging pendulum may have only a single pendulum rod or pendulum rope. It would also be possible to use two or more pendulum rods and/or pendulum cables.
  • the first pendulum represents a particularly stable pendulum, since gravity returns the pendulum mass back to it from the central resting position after it has been deflected.
  • the second pendulum is an inverse pendulum, in particular a standing pendulum. Any configuration of the inverse pendulum is also conceivable here.
  • the inverse pendulum has one, two or more pendulum supports.
  • the inverse pendulum is an unstable pendulum compared to the first hanging pendulum.
  • the first pendulum mass is preferably arranged below or above the second pendulum mass in the vertical direction or in the direction of movement.
  • the installation space can be significantly reduced in the horizontal direction or in a direction perpendicular to the direction of movement.
  • the first pendulum and/or the second pendulum can be provided with the greatest possible pendulum length despite the reduced installation height in the vertical direction or in the direction of movement.
  • the damping behavior and the natural frequency of the entire pendulum can be optimally adjusted to the requirements at hand, despite the reduced installation height.
  • the coupling device is arranged between the first pendulum mass and the second pendulum mass in the direction of movement.
  • the coupling device does not have to be aligned in the direction of movement for this.
  • the arrangement in the direction of movement between the first pendulum mass and the second pendulum mass thus also includes constellations in which the coupling device is arranged at an oblique angle to the direction of movement.
  • the coupling device is preferably integrated into the first pendulum mass and/or the second pendulum mass.
  • a portion of the first pendulum mass and/or the second pendulum mass can be designed in such a way that it represents part of the coupling device.

  • part of the coupling device it would also be possible for part of the coupling device to be arranged in a recess in the first pendulum mass and/or the second pendulum mass. With this feature, the building damper can be provided in a particularly compact manner or with the smallest possible installation space.
  • the coupling device has a guide element which preferably acts and/or is arranged in the direction of movement.
  • the guiding element can be of any type.
  • the guide element can be designed as a straight guide rail or straight guide tube.
  • the guide element is preferably made of metal, for example steel or aluminum.

  • the coupling element is preferably a rod, a tube, some kind of guide or corresponding extension of the first and/or the second pendulum mass, which engages with the guide element.
  • the first pendulum mass has the guide element and the second pendulum mass has the coupling element, or vice versa.
  • the first pendulum mass and the second pendulum mass each have a guide element and the coupling element engages with both guide elements.
  • the coupling of the first pendulum mass to the second pendulum mass in the direction of action can be established in a particularly simple manner by the guide element and the coupling element.
  • the relative movement in the direction of movement between the first pendulum mass and the second pendulum mass is simultaneously permitted in a particularly simple manner.
  • the coupling device advantageously has an end stop which is designed in such a way that the relative movement in the direction of movement between the first pendulum mass and the second pendulum mass is limited.
  • the end stop can be designed, for example, as a simple stop plate or as a complex stop mechanism.
  • the end stop is preferably integrated into the guide element. In one example, when the entire pendulum is deflected, the end stop limits the movement apart of the first pendulum mass and the second pendulum mass in the direction of movement.
  • the end stop preferably has a damping material, such as plastic. But a more stable material can also be provided here, such as metal.
  • the end stop limits the maximum distance in the direction of movement between the two pendulum masses and thus the maximum pendulum movement of the entire pendulum mass. In this way, the structural damper or the entire pendulum can be kept within a stable working range.
  • the coupling device has an active stop device which is designed to limit a maximum possible relative movement in the direction of movement between the first pendulum mass and the second pendulum mass and to change it, preferably while the structure damper is in use.
  • the active stop device can further reduce and ultimately stop the shift in the direction of movement between the two pendulum masses from oscillation cycle to oscillation cycle, which means that the two pendulum masses can be held in the center position in order to carry out inspection, maintenance, repair and other work.
  • the active stop device can include, for example, a stop plate and a movement mechanism by which the stop plate can be changed in position.
  • the active stopping device is preferably integrated into the guide element. In this case the position of the stop plate can be changed within or along the guide element.
