Abstract

An inertial mass amplification type tuned mass damper is disclosed. The inertial mass amplification type tuned mass damper comprises a hollow box, an H-shaped mass block, gears a, gears b, a rectangular frame, a steel ring, viscous dampers, a steel sheet, springs, rotating shafts and balls. In the present invention, an inertial damping force is amplified by adjusting the radius ratio of the gears a and the gears b; and damping parameters can be conveniently changed by adjusting the mass of the mass block, the spring stiffness and the like. The present invention has the advantages that the design mass is small, which can avoid the adverse effects of excessive additional gravity on the structure and improve the performance of the structure. The present invention has reasonable design and small occupied space, can save more use area for buildings and can greatly improve the utilization efficiency of the buildings.
