HEIGHT ADJUSTED SEISMIC BASE ISOLATION SYSTEM

A seismic isolation system includes at least one adjustable foot attached to a container. The at least one adjustable foot has a height at least sufficient to support the container such that the container does not touch a surface on which the container rests. The seismic isolation system further inc...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A seismic isolation system includes at least one adjustable foot attached to a container. The at least one adjustable foot has a height at least sufficient to support the container such that the container does not touch a surface on which the container rests. The seismic isolation system further includes a sliding pad affixed to a portion of the at least one adjustable foot facing the surface. The sliding pad is configured to provide a coefficient of static and kinetic friction between the sliding pad and the surface that prevents relative movement of the sliding pad and the surface in normal operation and allows the sliding pad to move relative to the surface during a seismic event. L'invention concerne un système d'isolation sismique comprenant au moins un pied réglable fixé sur un conteneur. Ledit pied réglable au moins présente une hauteur au moins suffisante pour soutenir le conteneur de sorte que ce dernier ne touche pas une surface sur laquelle il repose. Le système d'isolation sismique selon l'invention comprend également un patin coulissant fixé sur une partie dudit pied réglable au moins faisant face à ladite surface. Le patin coulissant est configuré pour fournir un coefficient de frottement statique et cinétique entre lui et la surface, qui empêche un mouvement relatif dudit patin et de la surface, en fonctionnement normal, et permet au patin coulissant de se déplacer par rapport à la surface pendant un événement sismique.
