Description

  The present invention relates to a seismic isolation device having a configuration in which an isolator is interposed between a foundation and a structure on the foundation.

  A seismic isolation device having a structure in which an isolator is interposed between a foundation and a structure on the foundation (a building such as a building, a bridge, a tower, etc.) has rubber plates and steel plates alternately bonded as an isolator. In general, a laminated rubber having a structure in which a plurality of layers are laminated in the vertical direction is used. This laminated rubber has a high strength against the compressive force in the vertical direction, but conversely has a property that it is weak against a tensile force in the vertical direction. For this reason, when a large tensile force acts on the laminated rubber due to the shaking of the earthquake, peeling or voids are generated between the rubber plate and the steel plate, which may reduce the seismic isolation performance of the laminated rubber.

For this reason, when designing a seismic isolation device in general, the tensile force acting on the laminated rubber against the shaking of the earthquake is such that peeling and voids do not occur between the rubber plate and the steel plate (for example, 1 N / mm ² or less). Specifically, for example, measures such as increasing the diameter of the laminated rubber have been conventionally performed, but this causes a problem that the seismic isolation performance against the earthquake is lowered.

As an example of the prior art that can solve such a problem, the diameter of the laminated rubber is not increased, but, for example, a rubber sheet, a bar spring, a dish or the like is provided between the head of the mounting bolt and the flange of the laminated rubber. 2. Description of the Related Art Seismic isolation devices having a configuration that reduces a tensile force acting on laminated rubber by interposing a buffer seat such as a spring are known (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 to 5).
JP-A-11-153191 JP 2001-124142 A JP-A-10-110551 JP 2000-240072 JP 2003-194146 A

  However, since the buffer seat used for the disc spring (for example, refer to Patent Documents 3 to 5) is generally very expensive, there arises a problem that the cost of the seismic isolation device is significantly increased.

  Further, in the above prior art, since a rubber sheet, a spring, and the like are compressed and deformed against a tensile force acting on the laminated rubber, when a large tensile force is applied, the rubber sheet, the spring, and the like are compressed and deformed exceeding an elastic limit. May occur. That is, there is a risk that a rubber sheet, a spring, or the like may be crushed or cracked due to compression deformation exceeding the elastic limit. If this happens, the elastic force of the rubber sheet, spring, etc. will decrease, making it impossible to exert the function of reducing the tensile force against the laminated rubber, making it easier for large tensile forces to act on the laminated rubber. There was a risk that peeling or voids would occur between the steel plate and the steel plate.

  The present invention has been made in view of such a situation, and the problem is that in a seismic isolation device in which an isolator is interposed between a foundation and a structure on the foundation, a vertical pull acting on the isolator is provided. An object of the present invention is to reduce the risk of the isolator protection device itself being damaged by the pulling force while realizing an isolator protection device that protects the isolator by reducing the force.

There is no need. As a result, the range of selection of the elastic body used for the isolator protection device is widened, and it is possible to use an elastic body made of an inexpensive rubber material instead of an expensive elastic body such as a large disc spring. Therefore, it is possible to easily realize the isolator protection device at a low cost.

  Thus, according to the first aspect of the present invention, in the seismic isolation device in which the isolator is interposed between the foundation and the structure on the foundation, the vertical tensile force acting on the isolator is reduced. While realizing an isolator protection device that protects the isolator at a low cost, it is possible to reduce the possibility that the isolator protection device itself is damaged by the pulling force.

Can be absorbed and reduced by deformation of the elastic body. As a result, it is possible to prevent peeling or voids between the rubber plate and the steel plate of the laminated rubber due to the vertical pulling force acting on the laminated rubber in the event of an earthquake. Rubber can be protected.

  Therefore, in the seismic isolation device in which the laminated rubber is interposed between the foundation and the structure on the foundation, the isolator protection device that protects the laminated rubber by reducing the vertical pulling force acting on the laminated rubber is reduced in cost. While realizing, the effect that the possibility that the isolator protection device itself may be damaged by the pulling force can be reduced can be obtained.

In the inserted state, it is engaged so as to be relatively displaceable in the separating direction. When the foundation or the structure is displaced in the separation direction with respect to the isolator, the elastic body is deformed between the flange and the locking portion along with the displacement, and as a result, the isolator and the foundation or the structure are separated from each other. It is engaged so as to be relatively elastically displaceable.

  Further, the elastic displacement of the base or the structure in the separating direction with respect to the isolator is regulated in a state where one end of the regulating member is in contact with the flange and the other end is in contact with the locking portion. That is, the relative elastic displacement position in the separation direction between the isolator and the foundation or the structure is regulated at both ends of the regulation member, so that deformation of the elastic body accompanying the displacement in the separation direction is regulated.

  In the fourth aspect of the present invention, the isolator and the foundation or the structure are relatively displaceable in the separation direction in a state where the mounting bolt is inserted into the mounting hole formed in the upper or lower flange of the isolator. Is engaged. When the foundation or the structure is displaced in the separation direction with respect to the isolator, the interval between the flange through which the mounting bolt is inserted and the locking portion provided at the end of the mounting bolt becomes narrower. As a result, the cylindrical elastic body disposed between the flange and the locking portion while being inserted through the mounting bolt is compressed by being compressed by the flange and the locking portion. Become.

  That is, according to the fourth aspect of the present invention, the cylinder-shaped elastic body disposed between the flange and the locking portion in a state of being inserted through the mounting bolt is compressively deformed, whereby the isolator and the foundation or The structure is engaged with the structure so as to be relatively elastically displaceable in the separation direction.

The steel pipe is arranged. Therefore, the relative displacement position between the isolator and the foundation or structure is locked between the flange and the locking portion, which is narrowed with the displacement in the separation direction, at both ends in the axial direction of the steel pipe. The parts are regulated in a state where they are in contact with each other. The cylindrical steel pipe has an axial length shorter than that of the cylindrical elastic body.

  That is, according to the fourth aspect of the present invention, the relative elastic displacement position in the separation direction between the isolator and the foundation or the structure is regulated at both ends in the axial direction of the steel pipe, thereby accompanying the displacement in the separation direction. The compression deformation of the elastic body is restricted. Therefore, by appropriately setting the axial length of the steel pipe in accordance with the axial length and elastic characteristics of the elastic body, it becomes possible to prevent the elastic body from undergoing compressive deformation exceeding the elastic limit.

Therefore, it is possible to prevent the elastic body from being deformed beyond the elastic limit by appropriately setting the length of the restricting member according to the shape and elastic characteristics of the elastic body.

  Since the locking portion and the regulating member are integrally formed, the locking portion and the regulating member reinforce each other and the rigidity is increased. Therefore, the shape and thickness of the locking portion and the regulating member are increased. Etc. can be made smaller, whereby the isolator protection device can be made smaller and thinner. Furthermore, since the locking portion and the regulating member are integrally formed, there is no positional displacement or rattling between the locking portion and the regulating member, so that the isolator is separated from the foundation or structure. It is possible to more stably regulate the relative elastic displacement position in the direction.

  According to a sixth aspect of the present invention, there is provided the isolator protection device according to the fifth aspect described above, wherein the plurality of elastic bodies are arranged symmetrically with the mounting bolt as a center of symmetry. Device.

  Thus, the size of each elastic body can be reduced by adopting a configuration in which the isolator and the foundation or the structure are engaged with each other so as to be relatively elastically displaceable in the separating direction with a plurality of elastic bodies. Further, since the plurality of elastic bodies are arranged symmetrically with the mounting bolt as the center of symmetry, the degree of freedom of arrangement of the elastic bodies can be increased while realizing balanced and stable elastic engagement. As a result, for example, when the distance between the mounting hole formed in the upper or lower flange of the isolator and the isolator body is narrow, the size and arrangement of the elastic body arranged near the mounting bolt may be restricted. Even in such a case, it is possible to realize an isolator protection device that can flexibly cope with the restriction.

  According to a seventh aspect of the present invention, in the isolator protection device according to the first aspect or the second aspect described above, a locking portion provided at an end portion of a mounting bolt protruding from the foundation or the structure. The isolator and the base or the structure are engaged with each other so as to be relatively displaceable in the separation direction in a state where the mounting bolt is inserted into a mounting hole formed in the upper or lower flange of the isolator. The elastic body has a cylindrical body shape, and the elastic displacement regulating means is provided on the outer peripheral surface side of the first cylindrical steel pipe disposed on the inner peripheral surface side of the elastic body and the elastic body. A cylinder-shaped second steel pipe to be disposed, and the elastic body, the first steel pipe, and the second steel pipe are disposed between the flange and the locking portion in a state where the second steel pipe is inserted through the mounting bolt. The isolator and the foundation or the When the structure is relatively displaced in the separating direction, the first steel pipe and the second steel pipe are pushed and moved in the opposite directions by the flange and the locking portion, and the first steel pipe is moved. The elastic body shears and deforms due to the movement of the first steel pipe and the second steel pipe in opposite directions, one axial end of the first steel pipe or the second steel pipe abuts on the flange, and the other axial end is the locking portion. The isolator protection device is characterized in that a displacement amount of the elastic displacement is regulated in a state of being in contact with the device.

  In the seventh aspect of the present invention, the isolator and the foundation or the structure can be relatively displaced in the separation direction in a state where the mounting bolt is inserted into the mounting hole formed in the upper end or the lower end flange of the isolator. Is engaged. When the foundation or the structure is displaced in the separation direction with respect to the isolator, the interval between the flange through which the mounting bolt is inserted and the locking portion provided at the end of the mounting bolt becomes narrower. Moreover, the 1st steel pipe is arrange | positioned at the inner peripheral surface side of the elastic body, the 2nd steel pipe is arrange | positioned at the outer peripheral surface side of the elastic body, and an elastic body is 1st by a flange and a latching | locking part. The steel pipe and the second steel pipe are sheared and deformed by being pushed and moved in opposite directions.

  That is, according to the seventh aspect of the present invention, the cylindrical elastic body disposed between the flange and the locking portion in a state of being inserted through the mounting bolt is subjected to shear deformation, whereby the isolator and the base or The structure is engaged with the structure so as to be relatively elastically displaceable in the separation direction.

  And the 7th aspect of this invention has the structure by which the displacement amount of an elastic displacement is controlled in the state which the axial direction both ends of the 1st steel pipe or the 2nd steel pipe contacted the flange and the latching | locking part, respectively. ing. That is, the relative elastic displacement position in the separation direction between the isolator and the foundation or the structure is regulated at both axial ends of the first steel pipe or the second steel pipe, so that the elastic body accompanying the displacement in the separation direction Shear deformation is regulated. Therefore, by appropriately setting the axial length of the first steel pipe or the second steel pipe according to the shear deformation characteristics of the elastic body, it is possible to prevent the elastic body from undergoing shear deformation exceeding the elastic limit.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a front view schematically showing an embodiment of a “seismic isolation device” according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view schematically showing an enlarged part thereof.
The “seismic isolation device” according to the present invention has a configuration in which a plurality of laminated rubbers 20 as “isolators” are interposed between a foundation 11 constructed on the ground and a structure 12 such as a building. As shown in FIG. 2, the known laminated rubber 20 has a configuration in which a substantially disc-shaped rubber plate 23 and a substantially disc-shaped steel plate 24 are alternately bonded and laminated in the vertical direction. . As for the shaking of the ground due to the earthquake, the shaking of the foundation 11 is absorbed by the laminated rubber 20, so that the shaking of the structure 12 on the laminated rubber 20 is reduced.

At this time, when the structure 12 swings to the left and right due to the shaking of the earthquake, a vertical pulling force acts on a part of the plurality of laminated rubbers 20, but the “seismic isolation device” according to the present invention has the pulling force. A plurality of isolator protection devices 30 that are reduced to prevent damage to the laminated rubber 20 are provided for each laminated rubber 20. In the laminated rubber 20, the lower flange 21 is engaged with the base 11 so as to be relatively elastically displaceable in the separating direction via the isolator protection device 30, and the upper flange 22 is engaged with the structure 12. Similarly, it is engaged through the isolator protection device 30 so as to be relatively elastically displaceable in the separation direction.

Also good. Or conversely, only the lower flange 21 and the foundation 11 are engaged with each other through the isolator protection device 30 so as to be relatively elastically displaceable in the separating direction so that the upper flange 22 and the structure 12 are directly connected. However, the present invention can be implemented, and the effects of the present invention can be obtained.

  Hereinafter, the isolator protection device 30 according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to a plurality of embodiments. It should be noted that the isolator protection device 30 on the structure 12 side is only disposed in the up-down direction opposite to the isolator protection device 30 on the base 11 side, and the configuration and function are exactly the same. The description of the isolator protection device 30 on the structure 12 side will be omitted, and so on.

<First embodiment>
FIG. 3 is a front sectional view schematically showing the first embodiment of the isolator protection device 30 according to the present invention, and FIG. 4 is a plan view of the AA section thereof.
The isolator protection device 30 according to the present invention includes a rubber elastic body 31 as an “elastic body” that engages the laminated rubber 20 and the base 11 so as to be relatively elastically displaceable in the separating direction, and the rubber elastic body 31 is elastic. An “elastic displacement amount restricting means” for restricting the amount of elastic displacement so as not to deform beyond the limit and a steel pipe (washer) 32 as a “regulating member” are provided. The rubber elastic body 31 is made of hard rubber such as natural rubber, and has a cylindrical shape as shown. The steel pipe 32 has a cylindrical shape that can be disposed on the inner peripheral surface side of the rubber elastic body 31 and has a shape that is shorter in the axial direction than the rubber elastic body 31 as shown in the figure.

  The base 11 is provided with a cap nut 111 at a position corresponding to a bolt hole 211 as an “attachment hole” provided in the lower flange 21. The bolt 33 as the “mounting bolt” is protruded from the base 11 while being screwed into the cap nut 111. In the isolator protection device 30, the laminated rubber 20 and the base 11 are engaged with each other so as to be relatively displaceable in the separating direction in a state where the bolt 33 is inserted into the bolt hole 211 of the lower flange 21. On the upper side of the lower flange 21, a rubber elastic body 31 and a steel pipe 32 on the inner peripheral surface side thereof are disposed in a state of being inserted through bolts 33.

  On the upper side of the rubber elastic body 31 and the steel pipe 32, a circular steel plate 34 as a “locking portion” is disposed in the vicinity of the end of the bolt 33 while being inserted into the bolt 33, and on the upper side of the nut 35. Are screwed together. That is, the rubber elastic body 31 and the steel pipe 32 are disposed between the lower flange 21 of the laminated rubber 20 and the circular steel plate 34 while being inserted through the bolts 33.

FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view schematically illustrating the first embodiment of the isolator protection device 30 according to the present invention when a tensile force acts on the laminated rubber 20 due to the shaking of the structure 12 due to an earthquake. The state is illustrated.
As described above, the laminated rubber 20 and the base 11 are engaged with each other so as to be relatively displaceable in the separation direction in a state where the bolt 33 is inserted into the bolt hole 211 formed in the lower flange 21 of the laminated rubber 20. Yes. Therefore, when a tensile force acts on the laminated rubber 20 due to the shaking of the structure 12 due to an earthquake, the base 11 is displaced in the separation direction with respect to the laminated rubber 20 as shown in the figure, and the distance between the lower flange 21 and the circular steel plate 34 is increased. It gets narrower. Thereby, the rubber elastic body 31 disposed between the lower flange 21 and the circular steel plate 34 is compressed by being compressed by the lower flange 21 and the circular steel plate 34 as shown in the drawing.

In other words, the isolator protection device 30 is configured such that the laminated rubber 20 and the foundation 11 are separated by a cylindrical rubber elastic body 31 disposed between the lower flange 21 and the circular steel plate 34 while being inserted into the bolt 33. It is engaged so as to be relatively elastically displaceable in the separating direction. Thereby, the isolator protection device 30 according to the present invention can absorb and reduce the tensile force in the vertical direction acting on the laminated rubber 20 in the event of an earthquake by compressive deformation of the rubber elastic body 31, so that the allowable range can be reduced. It is possible to prevent the upward and downward pulling force (for example, a pulling force of 1 N / mm ² or more) from acting on the laminated rubber 20. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the peeling or gap from being generated between the rubber plate 23 and the steel plate 24 of the laminated rubber 20 due to the tensile force, so that the laminated rubber 20 is protected from the tensile force in the event of an earthquake. can do.

  Further, as described above, on the inner peripheral surface side of the cylindrical rubber elastic body 31, the cylindrical steel pipe 32 is disposed between the lower flange 21 and the circular steel plate 34 while being inserted through the bolt 33. It is installed. Therefore, the relative displacement positions of the laminated rubber 20 and the foundation 11 are lower at both ends in the axial direction of the steel pipe 31 between the lower flange 21 and the circular steel plate 34 that become narrower with the displacement in the separating direction. When the flange 21 and the circular steel plate 34 are in contact with each other, further elastic displacement in the separating direction is restricted. The steel pipe 32 is set to have a shorter axial length than the rubber elastic body 31.

  That is, in the isolator protection device 30 according to the present invention, the relative elastic displacement position of the laminated rubber 20 and the base 11 in the separation direction is restricted by the axial length of the steel pipe 32, so that the separation direction in the separation direction is reduced. The compression deformation of the rubber elastic body 31 compressed with the displacement is restricted. Therefore, if the axial length of the steel pipe 32 is appropriately set according to the axial length and elastic characteristics of the rubber elastic body 31, it is possible to prevent the rubber elastic body 31 from undergoing compressive deformation exceeding the elastic limit. become. Thereby, it is possible to reliably prevent the deformation of the rubber elastic body 31 from exceeding the elastic limit by the vertical pulling force acting on the laminated rubber 20 in the event of an earthquake. It is possible to prevent the buckling 31 from being damaged due to buckling or the like.

  And the isolator protection apparatus 30 which concerns on this invention is the structure by which the deformation | transformation of the rubber elastic body 31 is controlled with the steel pipe 32 as an "elastic displacement amount control means" so that the rubber elastic body 31 may not deform | transform beyond an elastic limit. Therefore, it is not necessary to give the “elastic body” high strength. Thereby, the selection range of the “elastic body” to be used for the isolator protection device 30 is widened. For example, a rubber elastic body 31 made of an inexpensive rubber material is used instead of an expensive elastic body such as a large and strong disc spring. Therefore, the isolator protection device 30 for the laminated rubber 20 can be easily realized at low cost.

Here, in this embodiment, the rubber elastic body 31 is made of a natural rubber material having a hardness of about 75 °, has an outer diameter of about 100 mm, an inner diameter of about 50 mm, and a height (length in the axial direction) of about 30 mm. Is set to The steel pipe 32 has a plate thickness of about 8 mm, a height (length in the axial direction) of about 15 mm, an outer diameter of about 48 mm, and an inner diameter of about 40 mm. The bolt 33 is a M36 bolt, and the thickness of the circular steel plate 34 is set to about 9 mm. The lower flange 21 is provided with twelve bolt holes 211 having a hole diameter of about 39 mm on a concentric circle with the laminated rubber 20 as the center, and the plate thickness is about 28 mm (the same applies to the upper flange 22). .)
For example, when a laminated rubber NH100G4 manufactured by Bridgestone Corporation is used as an example of the laminated rubber 20, if the shape, dimensions, etc. of each component of the isolator protection device 30 are set as described above, the laminated rubber 20 is about 1N. When receiving a tensile force of / mm ² , the rubber elastic body 31 can be compressed and deformed until it receives a compressive force and the height is about 50%.

In addition, the said shape, dimension, etc. of each component (elastic rubber 31, the steel pipe 32, the bolt 33, the circular steel plate 34, the lower flange 21, etc.) are not a thing of the property that this invention is specifically limited to this. Needless to say, it is appropriately determined according to conditions such as the size and characteristics of the laminated rubber 20 in the seismic isolation device, the embodiment, and the like.
The rubber elastic body 31 which is an example of the “elastic body” includes, for example, natural rubber, urethane rubber, butadiene rubber, nitrile rubber, hydrogenated nitrile rubber, non-brene, silicon rubber, styrene butadiene rubber, butyl rubber, isobrene rubber, A wide variety of rubber materials such as chlorobrene rubber, ethylene / broylene rubber, polysulfide rubber, acrylic rubber, epichlorohydrin rubber, fluorine rubber, and chlorosulfonated polyethylene can be applied. "" Is not particularly limited to these, and any elastic body that can exhibit a desired elastic force can be used to implement the present invention. The same applies to other embodiments described later.

<Second embodiment>
FIG. 6 is a front sectional view schematically showing a second embodiment of the isolator protection device 30 according to the present invention, and FIG. 7 is a plan view of the BB section.
As in the first embodiment, the isolator protection device 30 in the second embodiment is a rubber elastic body 31 as an “elastic body” that engages the laminated rubber 20 and the base 11 so as to be relatively elastically displaceable in the separating direction. And an elastic displacement amount restricting means for restricting the amount of elastic displacement so that the rubber elastic body 31 does not deform beyond the elastic limit, and a steel pipe (washer) 32 as a restricting member. The difference from the first embodiment is that the steel pipe 32 having a cylindrical shape is disposed on the outer peripheral surface side of the rubber elastic body 31 as shown in the figure, and the axial length is shorter than that of the rubber elastic body 31. This is the same as the first embodiment. That is, in the second embodiment, the steel pipe 32 is disposed on the outer peripheral surface side of the rubber elastic body 31 on the upper side of the lower flange 21, and the other configuration is the same as that of the first embodiment. Detailed explanation is omitted.

FIG. 8 is a front sectional view schematically showing a second embodiment of the isolator protection device 30 according to the present invention, and when a tensile force is applied to the laminated rubber 20 due to the shaking of the structure 12 due to an earthquake. The state is illustrated.
As in the first embodiment, the isolator protection device 30 according to the second embodiment can absorb and reduce the vertical tensile force acting on the laminated rubber 20 in the event of an earthquake by compressive deformation of the rubber elastic body 31. it can. Thereby, a tensile force in the vertical direction exceeding the allowable range (for example, a tensile force of 1 N / mm ² or more) acts on the laminated rubber 20, and separation or voids are formed between the rubber plate 23 of the laminated rubber 20 and the steel plate 24. In the event of an earthquake, it can be prevented from occurring. The laminated rubber 20 can be protected from the tensile force.

  In addition, a cylindrical steel pipe 32 is disposed between the lower flange 21 and the circular steel plate 34 on the outer peripheral surface side of the cylindrical rubber elastic body 31 while being inserted through the bolt 33. As in the first embodiment, the steel pipe 32 has an axial length shorter than that of the rubber elastic body 31. Therefore, the relative displacement position between the laminated rubber 20 and the foundation 11 is regulated by the steel pipe 32 between the lower flange 21 and the circular steel plate 34 that become narrower with the displacement in the separation direction. Become.

  Thus, even if the steel pipe 32 is disposed on the outer peripheral surface side of the rubber elastic body 31, the present invention can be carried out, and the same effects as those of the first embodiment can be obtained. In the second embodiment, since the rubber elastic body 31 is disposed between the outer peripheral surface of the bolt 33 and the inner peripheral surface of the steel pipe 32, the rubber elastic body 31 has an inner peripheral surface side and an outer peripheral surface side. The compression deformation is performed while the deformation to is restricted. Therefore, the isolator protection device 30 according to the second embodiment has an advantage that the rubber elastic body 31 is less likely to buckle.

<Third embodiment>
9 and 10 are cross-sectional views in front view schematically illustrating a third embodiment of the isolator protection device 30 according to the present invention. FIG. 9 illustrates a state in a normal state, and FIG. 10 illustrates a state when a tensile force is applied to the laminated rubber 20 due to the shaking of the structure 12 due to an earthquake.
The isolator protection device 30 according to the third embodiment has a configuration in which a plurality of “elastic bodies” are alternately laminated in the vertical direction as shown in FIG. Since this is the same as the first embodiment described above, a detailed description is omitted. The rubber elastic body 36 is a hard rubber having a cylindrical shape like the rubber elastic body 31. The steel plate 37 has a cylindrical body shape that is substantially the same shape as the rubber elastic body 36.

As described above, the present invention can be implemented by forming an “elastic body” by alternately laminating a plurality of rubber elastic bodies 36 and steel plates 37 in the vertical direction, and the same effect as the first embodiment. Is obtained. In addition, by adopting such a configuration, the elastic force generated when the “elastic body” is deformed can be made more uniform as a whole, and a single-layer type as in the first and second embodiments is adopted. Compared to the case, since the “elastic body” can be further reduced in size, a more compact isolator protection device 30 can be realized.
It should be noted that the present invention can be implemented simply by alternately stacking the plurality of rubber elastic bodies 36 and the steel plates 37, but the rubber elastic bodies 36 and the steel plates 37 are alternately laminated by vulcanization bonding, It is preferable in that a more stable elasticity and strength improvement can be expected.

<Fourth embodiment>
11 and 12 are cross-sectional views in front view schematically illustrating the fourth embodiment of the isolator protection device 30 according to the present invention. FIG. 11 illustrates a state in a normal state, and FIG. 12 illustrates a state in which a tensile force is applied to the laminated rubber 20 due to the shaking of the structure 12 due to an earthquake.
The isolator protection device 30 according to the fourth embodiment includes a rubber elastic body 31 as an “elastic body” that engages the laminated rubber 20 and the base 11 so as to be relatively elastically displaceable in the separating direction, and the rubber elastic body 31 includes A first steel pipe 321 and a second steel pipe 322 are provided as “elastic displacement amount restricting means” and “regulating member” for restricting the amount of elastic displacement so as not to cause deformation exceeding the elastic limit. The rubber elastic body 31 is formed of hard rubber such as natural rubber, as in the first embodiment, and has a cylindrical shape as shown.

  Bolts 33 as “mounting bolts” project from the base 11, and the laminated rubber 20 and the base 11 are relatively separated in the separation direction in a state where the bolts 33 are inserted into the bolt holes 211 of the lower flange 21. This point is the same as in the first embodiment. Further, on the upper side of the rubber elastic body 31 and the steel pipe 32, a circular steel plate 34 as a “locking portion” is disposed in a state of being inserted into the bolt 33, and the nut 33 is attached to the bolt 33 above the circular steel plate 34. The point that 35 is screwed is the same as in the first embodiment.

  Between the lower flange 21 and the circular steel plate 34, a rubber elastic body 31, a first steel pipe 321 and a second steel pipe 322 are disposed in a state of being inserted through bolts 33. The first steel pipe 321 is disposed on the inner peripheral surface side of the rubber elastic body 31, and the second steel pipe 322 is disposed on the outer peripheral surface side of the rubber elastic body 31. The rubber elastic body 31 has an inner peripheral surface bonded to the outer peripheral surface of the first steel pipe 321 and an outer peripheral surface bonded to the inner peripheral surface of the second steel pipe 322. The upper end of the first steel pipe 321 is in contact with the circular steel plate 34, and a constant interval is provided between the lower end of the first steel pipe 321 and the lower flange 21 as shown in the figure. The lower end of the second steel pipe 322 is in contact with the lower flange 21, and a constant interval is provided between the upper end of the second steel pipe 322 and the circular steel plate 34 (FIG. 11).

  In the isolator protection device 30 according to the fourth embodiment having such a configuration, when a tensile force acts on the laminated rubber 20 due to the shaking of the structure 12 due to an earthquake, the laminated rubber 20 and the foundation 11 are relatively moved away from each other. As a result, the distance between the lower flange 21 and the circular steel plate 34 becomes narrower. Thereby, the first steel pipe 321 is pushed by the circular steel plate 34 and moves downward, and the second steel pipe 322 is pushed by the lower flange 21 and moves upward. As a result, the rubber elastic body 31 is illustrated. Shear deformation like

That is, in the isolator protection device 30 according to the fourth embodiment, the cylindrical rubber elastic body 31 disposed between the lower flange 21 and the circular steel plate 34 is shear-deformed while being inserted through the bolt 33. Thus, the laminated rubber 20 and the base 11 are engaged with each other so as to be relatively elastically displaceable in the separating direction (FIG. 12). Thereby, a tensile force in the vertical direction exceeding the allowable range (for example, a tensile force of 1 N / mm ² or more) acts on the laminated rubber 20, and separation or voids are formed between the rubber plate 23 of the laminated rubber 20 and the steel plate 24. In the event of an earthquake, it can be prevented from occurring. The laminated rubber 20 can be protected from the tensile force.

In the fourth embodiment, the axial length of the second steel pipe 322 is set longer than the axial length of the first steel pipe 321, and the upper end of the second steel pipe 322 is in contact with the circular steel plate 34. Thus, the amount of elastic displacement is regulated. That is, the relative elastic displacement position of the laminated rubber 20 and the base 11 in the separation direction is regulated by the axial length of the second steel pipe 322, so that the shearing of the rubber elastic body 31 accompanying the displacement in the separation direction is performed. Deformation will be regulated. Accordingly, by appropriately setting the axial length of the second steel pipe 322 in accordance with the axial length and elastic characteristics of the rubber elastic body 31, the rubber elastic body 31 is prevented from undergoing shear deformation exceeding the elastic limit. It becomes possible.
In addition, the axial direction length of the 1st steel pipe 321 is set longer than the axial direction length of the 2nd steel pipe 322, and the relative elastic displacement position to the separation direction of the laminated rubber 20 and the foundation 11 is set to the 1st steel pipe 321. It goes without saying that it can be configured to be regulated by the above.

  Further, the fourth embodiment has a configuration in which the rubber elastic body 31 is subjected to shear deformation upon relative elastic displacement of the laminated rubber 20 and the base 11 in the separating direction, so that the rubber elastic body 31 is compressed. It is not necessary to provide a space necessary for the deformation of the rubber elastic body 31 on the outer peripheral surface side or the inner peripheral surface side of the rubber elastic body 31 as compared with the configuration to be deformed (first embodiment, second embodiment). Therefore, the isolator protection device 30 can be further downsized.

<Fifth embodiment>
FIG. 13 schematically shows a fifth embodiment of the isolator protection device 30 according to the present invention. FIG. 13 (a) is a plan view, FIG. 13 (b) is a front view, and FIG. 13 (c). Is a side view.
The isolator protection device 30 according to the fifth embodiment includes a rectangular steel plate 38 made of a rectangular steel plate, a hexagonal bolt 39 as an “attachment bolt”, and two rubber elastic bodies 31 as “elastic bodies”. The rubber elastic body 31 is made of hard rubber such as natural rubber and has a cylindrical shape as shown. The rectangular steel plate 38 has a through hole 385 through which the hexagon bolt 39 is inserted at the center position. The head of the hexagon bolt 39 inserted through the through hole 385 is locked to the upper surface 381 as shown in the figure. A counterbore 383 is formed.

  Further, two concave portions 384 are formed symmetrically on the bottom surface 382 of the rectangular steel plate 38 with the through hole 385 as the center of symmetry. Two rubber elastic bodies 31 are symmetrically arranged in the recess 384 with the hexagon bolt 39 inserted through the through hole 385 as the center of symmetry. The depth d of the recess 384 is set to be shorter than the height h of the rubber elastic body 31, and the bottom surface of the rubber elastic body 31 is in a state where the upper surface of the rubber elastic body 31 is disposed in contact with the bottom of the recess 384. Will protrude from the bottom surface 382 of the rectangular steel plate 38. The rubber elastic body 31 may be fixed in position by adhering the upper surface to the bottom of the recess 384. For example, the rubber elastic body 31 is not bonded to the bottom of the recess 384 so that elastic deformation is not constrained on the adhesive surface. A configuration in which a groove or the like is provided and fitted so as not to be displaced is more preferable.

  For example, in this embodiment, the rectangular steel plate 38 has a length of about 300 mm, a width of about 120 mm, a plate thickness of about 33 mm, and a depth d of the recess 384 of about 8 mm, and the outer diameters of the two rubber elastic bodies 31 are By setting the height h to about 77 mm and the height h to about 18 mm, it is possible to realize the isolator protection device 30 that allows a tensile deformation of about 10 mm with a strain of about 50% with respect to the laminated rubber 20 having an outer diameter of about 1300 mm. is there. Needless to say, these dimensions and the like are not particularly limited to these, and should be appropriately set according to the size and characteristics of the laminated rubber 20.

FIG. 14 is a plan view schematically showing the arrangement of the isolator protection device 30 with respect to the laminated rubber 20 in the fifth embodiment.
15 and 16 are arrow views of the CC cross section (FIG. 13A) of the isolator protection device 30 in the fifth embodiment. FIG. 15 illustrates a state in a normal state, and FIG. 16 illustrates a state when a tensile force is applied to the laminated rubber 20 due to the shaking of the structure 12 due to an earthquake.

  The twelve isolator protection devices 30 are arranged in such a direction that all the rubber elastic bodies 31 are arranged on concentric circles that are substantially equidistant from the laminated rubber 20 as shown in the figure (FIG. 14). Each isolator protection device 30 is arranged in a state in which a hexagon bolt 39 into which a through hole 385 of a rectangular steel plate 38 and a bolt hole 211 of a lower flange 21 are inserted is screwed into a cap nut 111 provided on the foundation 11. (FIG. 15). In the isolator protection device 30 thus arranged, when a tensile force is applied to the laminated rubber 20 due to the shaking of the structure 12 due to an earthquake, the laminated rubber 20 and the foundation 11 are relatively displaced in the separation direction.

  In the isolator protection device 30, the gap between the lower flange 21 and the bottom of the recess 384 of the rectangular steel plate 38 becomes narrower as the laminated rubber 20 and the base 11 are relatively displaced in the separation direction. Accordingly, the rubber elastic body 31 disposed between the lower flange 21 and the concave portion 384 is compressed and deformed by the lower flange 21 and the concave portion 384 as shown in the figure. As a result, the laminated rubber 20 and the foundation are deformed. 11 is engaged so as to be relatively elastically displaceable in the separating direction. The elastic displacement of the base 11 in the separating direction with respect to the laminated rubber 20 is regulated in a state where the bottom surface 382 of the rectangular steel plate 38 is in contact with the lower flange 21 (FIG. 16).

  That is, in the rectangular steel plate 38 provided at the end of the hexagonal bolt 39, the concave portion 384 with which the upper surface of the rubber elastic body 31 abuts functions as a “locking portion” and the bottom surface 382 abuts against the lower flange 21. Therefore, it functions as a “regulating member” for regulating the amount of elastic displacement of the rubber elastic body 31. In other words, in the rectangular steel plate 38, the “locking portion” and the “regulating member” are integrally formed. As a result, the isolator protection device 30 can be made smaller and thinner, so that the possibility that the laminated rubber 20 contacts the isolator protection device 30 when deformed in the horizontal direction can be further reduced. . Further, since the “locking portion” and the “regulating member” have an integral structure, it is possible to more stably regulate the relative elastic displacement position of the laminated rubber 20 and the base 11 in the separating direction. Become.

  In the isolator protection device 30 according to the fifth embodiment, since the plurality of rubber elastic bodies 31 are symmetrically arranged with the hexagonal bolt 39 as the center of symmetry, the individual sizes of the rubber elastic bodies 31 can be reduced. In addition, the degree of freedom of arrangement of the rubber elastic body 31 can be increased while realizing balanced and stable elastic engagement. Thereby, for example, when the distance between the bolt hole 211 formed in the lower flange 21 and the laminated rubber 20 is narrow, the size and arrangement of the rubber elastic body 31 disposed in the vicinity of the hexagon bolt 39 is restricted. Even in such a case, it is possible to realize the isolator protection device 30 that can flexibly cope with the restriction.

  Furthermore, since the isolator protection device 30 according to the fifth embodiment has a configuration in which the hexagon bolt 39 is not inserted into the “elastic body”, it has a feature that the degree of freedom of the shape and the like of the “elastic body” is high. . That is, the shape of the “elastic body” is not limited to the cylindrical rubber elastic body 31 (FIG. 13), and may be a rectangular parallelepiped, for example, or may be a metal material instead of a hard rubber such as natural rubber. It can also be configured by a leaf spring or the like.

<Sixth embodiment>
FIG. 17 is a cross-sectional view schematically showing a sixth embodiment of the isolator protection device 30 according to the present invention.
The sixth embodiment is an isolator protection device 30 in which the two rubber elastic bodies 31 are replaced with two corrugated steel plate springs 41 in the fifth embodiment, and the other configuration is the same as that of the fifth embodiment.

  The corrugated steel plate spring 41 has a configuration in which a plurality of rectangular corrugated steel plates are laminated while alternately changing the angle by 90 degrees. Such a corrugated steel plate spring 41 is more excellent in durability against compressive deformation due to external force than the rubber elastic body 31 of the same size, and has an advantage that a wider elastic displacement width can be obtained. Therefore, according to such a corrugated steel plate spring 41, it is possible to make the “elastic body” and the “regulating member” smaller as compared with the case where the rubber elastic body 31 is adopted, and the isolator protection device 30 can be further reduced. It becomes possible to reduce the size and thickness.

<Effect of the invention>
Thus, according to the isolator protection device 30 according to the present invention, in the seismic isolation device in which the “isolator” such as the laminated rubber 20 is interposed between the foundation 11 and the structure 12 on the foundation 11, the lamination is performed. The isolator protection device 30 that protects the laminated rubber 20 by reducing the vertical tensile force acting on the rubber 20 is realized at low cost, and the possibility that the isolator protection device 30 itself is damaged by the tensile force is reduced. The effect that it can be obtained.

  The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications can be made within the scope of the invention described in the claims, and these are also included in the scope of the present invention. Needless to say.
