DISIPADOR METALICO DE ENERGIA CONSTRUIDO DE FORMA MODULAR, PARA REDUCIR VIBRACIONES EN ESTRUCTURAS INDUCIDAS POR SISMOS, VIENTOS Y OTRAS FUENTES

QUE COMPRENDE AL MENOS UN MODULO QUE CONSTA DE DOS PLACAS DE CARGA, ENTRE LAS QUE SE CONECTA UN NUMERO VARIABLE DE DISIPADORES METALICOS EN FORMA DE U, QUE TRABAJAN PARA DEFORMACIONES RELATIVAS ENTRE LAS PLACAS DE CARGA, YA SEA VERTICAL U HORIZONTALMENTE, EN QUE DICHAS PLACAS DE CARGA SE CONECTAN A UNA ESTRUCTURA ENTRE DOS PUNTOS DE SUFREN UNA DEFORMACION RELATIVA PRODUCTO DE SU VIBRACION 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.
