PIPE SUPPORT FOR PREVENTION OF DAMAGE DUE TO HIGH CYCLE VIBRATION

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a construction technique for pipe support to prevent damage due to high cycle vibration by inserting a vibration absorber between a pipe and a plate and further another technique for inserting the vibration absorber into an integral type clamp in which cracks are hard to be formed and reliability of the pipe support has been substantially increased. SOLUTION: In a first construction method, the vibration absorber which has such a structure as to be able to absorb vibration is applied to the contact surface between the pipe and the plate. The vibration absorber can convert an absorbed vibration energy into a thermal energy. In a second construction method, the integral type clamp wherein cracks are hard to be initiated and the clamp per se is not so expensive is used. The vibration absorber same as in the first construction method can also be applied to produce an additional beneficial effect.
