  EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION Hereinafter, the form for implementing the rotation inertia damping device and vibration suppression apparatus of a structure which concern on embodiment is demonstrated based on drawing. Several embodiments will be described below. However, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments, and many improvements, changes, modifications, and substitutions may be made without departing from the scope and spirit of the claims. It is possible for those skilled in the art to conceive and application examples.

First, the basic structure and operation of the rotary inertia damping device according to the present invention will be described. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing the basic structure and operation of a rotary inertia damping device according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram for explaining the principle of the rotary inertia damping device according to the present invention. The rotary inertia damping device 100 described below is simplified to explain the basic configuration, operation, and principle.
As shown in FIG. 1, the rotary inertia damping device 100 includes a ball screw mechanism 110, a rotating mass part 140 including a weight part 120 and a weight part holding means 130, a driving means 150, a case member 160, and an attachment part. 170.
The ball screw mechanism 110 includes a ball screw shaft 111 and a ball nut 112 as constituent members, and converts the linear motion of the ball nut 112 that is one constituent member into the rotational motion of the ball screw shaft 111 that is the other member. The ball screw shaft 111 may be linearly moved, and the ball nut 112 may be rotationally driven to cause the weight portion 120 to rotate orbit.

Two weight portions 120 are arranged with the axis O of the ball screw shaft 111 as the axis of symmetry, and rotate orbitally with a predetermined radius “R” by the rotation of the ball screw shaft 111. Note that three or more weight portions 120 may be provided as long as they are arranged at equal angular intervals around the axis O. The weight holding means 130 holds the weight 120 on the ball screw shaft 111 in a state in which the rotation radius can be changed. The driving means 150 deforms the weight holding means 130 and changes the radius of the rotation trajectory of the weight 120. The case member 160 holds the ball screw shaft 111 so as to be capable of rotating in a low friction state, and holds the ball nut 112 so as not to be relatively rotatable and linearly movable. The case member 160 is a cylindrical member that covers the rotating mass unit 140. The mounting portion 170 is connected to the ball nut 112 and is configured to hold the ball nut 112 so as to be linearly movable with respect to the case member 160 and to be able to attach another structural member to the rotary inertia damping device 100.
The ball screw mechanism 110 is a known mechanism, and converts linear motion and rotational motion with high efficiency. For this reason, when the ball screw shaft 111 is rotatably held by the case member 160 and the ball nut 112 screwed into the ball screw shaft 111 is linearly moved, the ball nut 112 rotates. The ball screw shaft 111 is attached to the case member 160 via a bearing 180 such as a ball bearing.

The weight holding means 130 includes a first rotation support part 131 attached to the ball screw shaft 111 and a second rotation support part 132. Further, in the rotating mass unit 140, the weight part 120 is moved by the arm members 133 and 134 that are rod-shaped node members that support the weight part 120 between the first rotation support part 131 and the second rotation support part 132. The first rotation support part 131 and the second rotation support part 132 are attached.
The arm member 133 is rotatably held at one end by the weight side pin 133a at the weight portion 120 and at the other end by the rotation support portion side pin 133b at the other end by the first rotation support portion 131. The arm member 134 is rotatably held at one end by the weight side pin 134a at the weight portion 120 and at the other end by the rotation support portion side pin 134b at the second rotation support portion 132. As a result, as shown in FIG. 1B, the weight portion 120 can be separated from the axis O by moving the second rotation support portion 132 toward the first rotation support portion 131, and the rotation trajectory. The radius “R” can be changed steplessly. The structure of the weight holding means can be variously changed as long as the rotation orbit radius of the weight can be changed.

The drive means 150 is moved along the axis O along the drive shaft 151. A connection between the drive shaft 151 and the second rotation support portion 132 that includes a transmission mechanism that transmits only the force along the axial direction without transmitting the rotation of the second rotation support portion 132 to the drive shaft 151. A member 135 is disposed. The drive means may be a hydraulic cylinder, an actuator such as an electric screw mechanism, a manual drive mechanism, or the like.
The case member 160 holds the ball screw shaft 111 through a bearing 180 so as to be capable of rotating, and holds the ball screw shaft 111 so as to be capable of linear movement. The case member 160 covers the rotating mass unit 140. The case member 160 has a cylindrical holding body that holds a connection portion 161 to which a structural member is connected to one end of a cylindrical main body, that is, an end portion on the driving means 150 side, and a ball screw mechanism 110 on an end portion on the bearing 180 side. Part 162. The holding part 162 holds the attachment part 170 configured to be connectable to the structural member in a state in which the attachment part 170 is not relatively rotatable and is capable of a relative linear movement along the axis O.

  In the rotary inertia damping device 100 having the above-described configuration, the linear motion input from the mounting portion 170 is converted into rotational motion by the ball screw mechanism 110, and the two weight portions 120 have a radius “ Rotate in a circular orbit of “R” to generate rotational inertial mass. In this example, the driving means 150 is driven to deform the weight holding means 130 to change the orbit radius “R” of the weight 120.

From the state in which the first rotation support part 131 and the second rotation support part 132 are most separated (FIG. 1A), the driving means 150 is driven to support the second rotation support part 132 in the first rotation support. It makes it adjoin to the part 131 (FIG.1 (b)). By this operation, the arm member 133 and the arm member 134 are opened, and the orbit radius of the weight portion 120 changes from “r ₀ ” shown in FIG. 2A to “r ₁ ” shown in FIG. (R ₀ <r ₁ ). At this time, since the driving unit 150 continuously changes the position of the second rotation support part 132, the orbit radius of the weight part 120 is continuously changed, and the rotational inertial mass continuously changes. The rotary inertia damping device 100 can continuously change the rotary inertia mass by the weight portion 120 by this operation.

Here, in the rotary inertia damping device 100, if the lead length (thread pitch) of the ball screw shaft 111 is “L” and the trajectory radius of the center of gravity of the weight portion 120 with the mass “m” is “r”, the minute When a displacement “dx” in the direction of the axis O is input to the ball screw shaft 111 during the time “dt”, an axial force (reaction force) “F _I ” acting on the ball nut 112 due to the rotational inertial force is expressed by the following equation: Can be expressed as

・・・（式１）

... (Formula 1)

From this equation, it can be seen that “F _I ” can be largely changed by slightly changing the orbit radius “r” of the weight 120 in the rotating mass portion 140.
In such a rotary inertia damping device 100, between the connecting portion 161 and the attachment portion 170, as shown in FIG. The resistance rotary inertia damping device 100R due to the rigidity of the vibration device 100 itself acts. By these components, vibration between the structural member connected to the connection portion 161 and the structural member connected to the attachment portion 170 can be suppressed.

In the above example, the rotational orbit radius of the weight portion 120 is increased by the operation of the driving means 150. In the present invention, the rotational inertial mass can be changed by reducing the rotational orbit radius “R” of the weight portion 120 by driving the driving means 150. FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram showing another basic operation of the rotary inertia damping device according to the present invention. In the rotary inertia damping device 100A, the driving means 150 is driven to bring the second rotation support portion 132 close to the first rotation support portion 131, whereby the orbit radius of the weight portion 120 is changed from “r ₀ ” to “ r ₂ ”(r ₀ > r ₂ ).

  In either case of the rotary inertia damping device 100 or the rotary inertia damping device 100A described above, the driving means 150 is driven to bring the second rotation support portion 132 close to the first rotation support portion 131. When doing so, the orbit radius of the weight part 120 is configured to increase or decrease alternatively. For example, in the rotary inertia damping device 100, in addition to providing a stopper in which the orbit radius of the weight portion 120 does not move in the decreasing direction, the arm members 133 and 134 are disposed at the initial position (FIG. 1A). The initial position of the second rotation support part 132 is set so as to be arranged on the opening side. Further, in the rotary inertia damping device 100A, in addition to providing a stopper that does not move the radius of the orbit of the weight portion 120 in the increasing direction, the arm members 133 and 134 are disposed at the initial position (FIG. 1A). The initial position of the second rotation support part 132 is set so as to be arranged on the reduction side.

  According to the rotary inertia damping device 100 having the above configuration, the rotary inertia mass is continuously changed by continuously changing the radius “R” of the circular orbit motion of the weight portion 120 in the rotary mass portion 140. Thus, the rotational inertial damping device 100 can be set to a rotational inertial mass that matches the vibration characteristics of the vibration damping target.

In the hydraulic cylinder 250, the piston rod 251 is connected to the piston 252 in the cylinder 253, and the piston rod 251 is driven to reciprocate along the axis O. Between the piston rod 251 and the second rotation support part 232, two thrust ball bearings 235 are arranged as connection members to which the rotation of the second rotation support part 232 is not transmitted. A ball bearing 236 is disposed between the two thrust ball bearings 235. The ball bearing 236 is provided to hold the rotating mass unit 240 more stably without the rotation of the rotating mass unit 240 being transmitted to the second rotation support unit 232. Note that the ball bearing 236 need not be used as long as the rotation of the rotary mass unit 240 can be stably held only by the ball bearing 280. The piston rod 251 and the connecting shaft 256 from the thrust ball bearing 235 are connected by a joint member 255.
