METALLIC ENERGY DISSIPATOR MANUFACTURED IN A MODULAR FORM FOR REDUCING VIBRATIONS IN STRUCTURES AFFECTED BY EARTHQUAKES, WIND AND OTHER SOURCES, BY MEANS OF THE HYSTERETIC BEHAVIOUR OF THE METAL, WHICH COMPRISES AT LEAST A MODULE THAT INCLUDES TWO LO

Described is a metallic energy dissipator manufactured in a modular form for reducing vibrations in structures affected by earthquakes, wind and further sources by means of the hysteretic behaviour of the metal, which comprises at least a module (5) including two loading plates (1) where a variable number of U-shaped metallic dissipators (2) are connected therebetween, said dissipators (2) supporting relative deformations vertically or horizontally performed between the loading plates, these latter elements (1) being connected to a structure (3) located between two points that suffer a relative deformation resulting from a vibration. Disipador metálico de energía construido de forma modular para reducir vibraciones en estructuras inducidas por sismos, viento, y otras fuentes mediante comportamiento histerético del metal que comprende al menos un módulo (5) que consta de dos placas de carga (1), entre las que se conecta un número variable de disipadores metálicos en forma de U (2), que trabajan para deformaciones relativas entre las placas de carga, ya sea vertical u horizontalmente, en que dichas placas de carga (1) se conectan a una estructura (3) entre dos puntos que sufren una deformación relativa producto de su vibración.
