2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, buildings,
For example, the following various seismic isolation devices have been developed in order to prevent damage to structures, machines, equipment, objects, and the like (a building or the like is used as a supported body, and a foundation or the like is used as a support). (B) There is a seismic isolation device in which various types of laminated rubber are interposed between the supported member and the support member.
June 995, pages 25-28). (B) An intermediate body for supporting the load of the supported body and transmitting the load to the support body is provided, and the intermediate body is supported by a plurality of helical springs so as to be able to vibrate in a predetermined direction, or a damper such as an oil damper is provided on the intermediate body. There is a seismic isolation device with a structure that combines (C) There is a seismic isolation device having a structure in which a support member having a curved surface is mounted on a support, and the supported member is supported by rolling spheres or rollers on the support member regulated and held by a retainer or the like (hereinafter referred to as a roller). Type). (D) There is a seismic isolation device developed by the present inventor that has a structure in which a guide member having a curved surface is mounted on a support, and the supported member is supported by a rolling element that can roll around an axis (Japanese Patent Publication No. Hei 6 (1994)). -74609, hereinafter abbreviated as wheel type). When these seismic isolation devices are used, a plurality of the seismic isolation devices are arranged between the support and the supported member according to the weight and shape of the supported member, or are arranged in two layers at right angles. Among the above conventional techniques, in the examples (a) and (b), since the seismic isolation performance differs depending on the weight of the supported body, it is necessary to match the laminated rubber, the spring, and the like to the optimal one when the weight changes. Low degree of freedom in design. On the other hand, in the examples (c) and (d), the rolling element is used, and the restoring force in the displaced state is proportional to the weight of the supported body, and the natural frequency is independent of the weight. It also has the feature that seismic isolation can be performed effectively, and the degree of freedom in design is high. In the example of (c), the ball or roller is interposed between the upper rail and the lower rail between the support and the supported body as the rolling element to use as a seismic isolation device. Requires a relatively short rail length. However, since the ball or roller alone does not actively generate damping force, it is necessary to provide a separate damping force adding device, and the roller or ball may fall off or fall into a deadlock state on the concave surface sandwiched vertically. There is a complicated structure such as adding a frame or a link that restricts the movement of the ball or the roller, and requires extra labor for maintenance. On the other hand, the example (d) is a seismic isolation device using wheels that rotate around an axle that can roll on a single rail interposed between the support and the supported member as rolling elements. No special damping device is required because the friction of the axle effectively acts as a damping force. However, in order to respond stably to seismic motion, the total rail length must be selected to be twice that of (c) above. Although the equipment is slightly larger, it has a simple structure and does not require extra labor for maintenance. It can be used for general household goods, office automation equipment, medical equipment, fine arts, etc. It has features that can be widely applied to medium to heavy loads for equipment and the like.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention
Of the seismic isolation devices described in 74609, especially for buildings, structures, machines, facilities, etc., four rotating wheels are provided around four axes fixed to a substantially cross-shaped connecting member,
One of the two opposite wheels is allowed to roll on an upward concave rail fixed to the support, and the other two opposite wheels in the right angle direction are fixed to the supported body, and the upward concave rail is fixed. There is a seismic isolation device that is capable of rolling on a downwardly concave rail perpendicular to the base and combining a plurality of them in accordance with the load of the supported body (Japanese Patent Publication No. 6-74609, page 4, left column, lines 21 to 50, 20-22). With this seismic isolation device, in the event of a one-way seismic motion, the backlash inevitably existing between each rail and each of the two rollable wheels is held by the flanges of each rail and wheel at two points. And the so-called yawing phenomenon occurs in which the cross-shaped coupling member rotates around the vertical center axis due to imbalance between the center of gravity of the supported member and the center position of the seismic isolation device. There has been a problem that the support may be uncomfortable. On the other hand, the present invention does not require an additional device for adding extra damping force by effectively acting friction as a damping force as a wheel type. It is an object of the present invention to obtain a seismic isolation device which can prevent yawing at a low cost and is suitable for medium and light loads such as buildings, structures, machines, facilities, and objects.

[0005] Among the constituent elements of the present invention, common ones will be described. The support may be any as long as the seismic isolation device can be fixed, and examples thereof include a floor, a foundation, and a fixed material, a fixed material, or a structure thereon. The substrate to be supported is not particularly limited, but is mainly a detached house, a multi-family house, a building, a computer, a machine, a medium-sized or heavy object, and the like. As the material of the rail, metal, hardwood, hard plastic, FRP, glass, ceramic, etc. can be used, but carbon steel or stainless steel is most commonly used from the load bearing capacity, depending on the weight of the supported body and the use conditions. The material and size are selected. The concave shape of the rail is
Although there is no particular limitation, in order to obtain a desired spring constant, the center of the vibration area forms the lowest or highest part in the reference state at the time of non-operation of the earthquake, and usually has a symmetrical shape such as an arc, a parabola,
A hyperbolic curve, a straight line, or the like having a constant or variable curvature alone or in combination is used, and is selected so that the supported member is in the reference state at the lowest level position when the earthquake is not operating. As the characteristics of the restoring force, for example,
What is described in 74609 is used. Vibration zone refers to the area where the rolling element rolls due to seismic motion.If no seismic motion occurs at any position following the end of the vibration area, a static area, such as a depression, in which the rolling element is supported in advance so that it can be stopped. There may be a configuration of a rail having the same. Materials for the wheels, axles, supports and connecting members include metals,
Ceramic or hard plastic can be used, but most commonly used is carbon steel or stainless steel, and the material and size are selected according to the weight of the supported member and the use conditions. It is necessary that the wheel has a flange for preventing the wheel from coming off, which is formed on one side of the rim or on both sides of the rim, that is, on at least one side. Alternatively, a flange may be formed at at least one end of each rail without providing a flange on the wheel. As a bearing used between the components that rotate or swing with each other, for example, between the wheel and the axle, a general sliding bearing, a material such as a rolling bearing can be used, but it is preferable to use an oil-free bearing, and nylon or the like. At least one of the components such as wheels or axles so that a lubricating effect can be obtained even if lubricating materials such as plastics such as fluororesin, oil-impregnated materials, and solid lubricating materials are interposed or come into contact with others. The surface may be coated with an anti-friction material. It is preferable to provide a separate bearing between each wheel and each component such as the axle because stable friction can be obtained.However, in the case of a light load or when a hard plastic is used for the components such as the wheel and the axle. Alternatively, each component such as a wheel and an axle may be directly slidable without a separate bearing.

A seismic isolation device 20 according to a third embodiment of the present invention shown in FIGS. 5, 6, and 8 (c) shows a reference state when the earthquake is not activated, and is mounted between the support S and the supported H. , Lower rail 4 ', upper rail 5, connecting members 6, 6', upper wheel 7
U, a lower wheel 7D ', an axle 8, and an axle support 9'. As an alternative, there are a lower rail connecting member 2 and an upper rail connecting member 3. Here, as compared with the seismic isolation device 1, there is a portion in which the lower rail 4 'is different from the lower rail 4, the coupling member 6' is different from the coupling member 6, and the lower wheel 7D 'is different from the lower wheel 7D. The support part 9 'has a part different from the axle support part 9, but the upper rail 5,
The configurations of the upper wheel 7U and the axle 8 are the same, and the detailed description thereof is omitted by using the same reference numerals. The upper wheel 7U among the wheels is a pair of two sets similar to the seismic isolation device 1, but the lower wheel 7D '.
Is a large two-piece rim 7a ', each having a large size because the load bearing capacity is the same as a pair of the upper wheels 7U, and the structure is the same as the lower wheels 7D.
A separate split flanged bearing 7 fixed to a cylindrical hole drilled in the shaft core of the flange 7b 'and the rim 7a'
c '. A pair of lower rails 4 ′ are fixedly mounted on the support S via a rectangular lower rail connecting member 2 in parallel in the left-right rolling direction X of the lower wheels 7 D ′ with a front-rear interval Q therebetween. The lower portion 7D 'is larger than the upper wheel 7U, and the corresponding rail width is also large. Therefore, the front-rear distance Q is set smaller than the left-right distance P of the upper rail 5. The upper rail 5 is the same as the seismic isolation device 1, and the upper rail 5 is disposed above the lower rail 4 ′ so that the arc surface is orthogonal to the arc surface in the opposite direction. Here, similarly to the seismic isolation device 1, the lower rail connecting member 2 and / or the upper rail connecting member 3 may be omitted. The coupling member is composed of a coupling member 6 'that supports around the lower wheel 7D' and a coupling member 6 that supports around the upper wheel 7U similar to the seismic isolation device 1, and is surrounded by the lower rail 4 'and the upper rail 5. It is located in the center of the space. The connecting member 6 'is fixed at the center to the two intersecting bases 6a of the connecting member 6 in the left-right rolling direction X and has a cross shape crossing the right and left rolling direction Y in the front-rear rolling direction Y and extends from the center. From a column-shaped cross base 6a ', a large-diameter part 6b' protruding from the tip side of the cross base 6a 'and slightly smaller than the cross base 6a' toward the outside, and a small-diameter part 6c 'threaded with an external thread. It has two stepped central shaft portions 6f ', a washer 6e' that can be attached to the small diameter portion 6c ', and a nut 6d'. The coupling member 6 is similar to the seismic isolation device 1 and has two intersecting bases 6a extending in the left-right rolling direction X from a common central portion with the coupling member 6 ', and protrudes from the distal end side of each intersecting base 6a. Large diameter portion 6b slightly smaller than cross base 6a toward the outside
And two central shaft portions 6f having a step formed of a small diameter portion 6c,
It has a washer 6e and a nut 6d. Here, the horizontal plane including the axis centers of the two upper and lower central shaft portions 6f 'and 6f is stepped and has an interval K. This value indicates that the lower wheel 7D' has an outer diameter of 2K with respect to the upper wheel 7U. It only corresponds to being taken large. Around the lower wheel 7D ', the axle support 9 of the seismic isolation device 1 is eliminated, and the lower wheel 7D' is mounted on the large diameter portion 6b 'via a separate bearing 7c' instead of the axle 8, and The shaft 6f 'is rotatable around the axis. The axle support 9 '
The only difference is that a 'has a flat shape without the central wide upper and lower portions of the support member 9a, and other configurations of the spacer 9b, the bearing 9c, and the distance W between the support members are the same. The detailed description is omitted. The supporting material 9a is'
Since the upper and lower portions of the central portion are not mountain-shaped, it is necessary to increase the thickness of the supporting member 9a with the same load capacity. The assembling of the seismic isolation device 20 is similar to that of the above-described seismic isolation device 1 around the upper wheel 7U, and the detailed description is omitted. On the other hand, the lower wheel 7D 'has a bearing 7c' around the axis of the large diameter portion 6b 'of the two central shaft portions 6f'.
The small diameter part 16c 'is fitted with a washer 6e', and a nut 6d 'is screwed and fixed to the outermost male screw. With the above configuration, when an earthquake in the left-right rolling direction X occurs, the lower wheel 7D 'moves along the lower rail 4' while rotating around the central shaft portion 6f 'from the reference state when the earthquake does not operate as shown in FIG. The wheels 7U are relatively rotatable along the upper rail 5 while rotating around an upper axle 8U fixed to the front and rear of the support 9a, and at the same time, each support 9a is connected to the axis of each central shaft 6f. It is possible to swing around the core.

The size of the small upper wheel 7U can be changed and used according to D '. At this time, the surfaces of the unified wheels and the axes of the two upper and lower central shaft portions 6f' and 6f are on the same horizontal plane. Each upper wheel 7 can be removed from the load
It is necessary to increase U and increase the width of the upper rail 5 to which it is attached. In each of the seismic isolation devices 1 and 10, it is also possible to use one wheel mounted on each of the rails similarly to the seismic isolation device 20. Bearings 7c, 9c, 16g
And 7c 'are usually fixed to the rim 7a, the spacer 9b, the crossing base 16f and the rim 7a', respectively. The axle 8, the large diameter portion 6b of the center shaft 6f, and the base shaft 16 respectively.
a and the large-diameter portion 6b 'of the central shaft portion 6f'. Spacer 19b of axle support 19 of seismic isolation device 10
Is the same as the spacer 9b of the axle support 9 of the seismic isolation device 1 and has the same configuration as each support 9a is capable of swinging about the axis of each central shaft 6f and each cross base 6a. 16g may be discarded and the base shaft 16a may be fixed to the inner surface of the cross base 16f. At this time, the support member 19a can swing around the axis of the large diameter portion 16b, and the operation is the same as that of the seismic isolation device 1. The axle supports 9, 19, 9 '
a, 19a, 9a 'with a pair of spacers 9b facing each other,
19b holds the front-back and left-right spacing W,
Instead of the spacers, a boss connecting the support members may be provided integrally. Further, the support member may use a substantially U-shaped member in a side view, or a pair of substantially U-shaped members in a plan view with their closing portions back-to-back and openings at both ends. Any structure can be used as long as the material can be held at predetermined intervals in the front-rear and left-right directions. Furthermore, in the case of light load, the support member is not used as a pair but each pair of support members is used as one, and a pair of parallel axles are fixed to the support member with a cantilever, and the wheels can be turned on the axle. It is good also as a structure attached to. The seismic isolation devices 1, 10,

Next, the operation of the seismic isolation device 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. Here, FIG. 1 shows a reference state when the earthquake does not operate, and FIG. 7 shows a state when the earthquake occurs. Corresponding components are denoted by the same reference numerals, but FIG. The curve of the concave surface of the rail is shown slightly larger than in FIG. In the reference state at the time of non-operation of the earthquake, as shown in FIG. 1, each lower wheel 7D of the seismic isolation device 1 is located at a low position equidistant from the center of the lower rail 4, and each upper wheel 7U is located at the same position from the center of the upper rail 5. At a low distance,
The supported member H is stationary above the support member S in a stable state at the lowest position. When a seismic motion in the left-right direction X occurs, as shown in FIG.
D rolls on the concave surface of the lower rail 4, and the supported body H is displaced relative to the supported body S by one stroke L in the right direction X from the center of the lower rail 4. Is raised from the lowest position in the reference state, and the vibration is repeated by receiving a restoring force according to the displacement, but the load of the supported member H does not directly reach the supported member S, and the supported member H → the upper rail connecting member 3 → Upper rail 5 → Upper wheel 7U → Upper axle 8U
→ Via upper support 9a, central shaft 6f and cross base 6a → Lower cross base 6a, center shaft 6f and support 9
a → Lower axle 8D → Lower wheel 7D → Lower rail 4
→ Lower rail connecting material 2 → Since it reaches the support S following the path of the support S, it always passes between each wheel and the axle, and the friction between the wheel and the axle effectively acts as a damping force and is seismically isolated. .
At this time, since the lower wheels 7D corresponding to the front and rear move up and down by the same amount, the center shaft portions 6f and the intersection bases 6a located at the midpoints between the shaft centers of the left and right lower wheels 7D move on the same horizontal plane. On the other hand, the support member 9a of the axle support portion 9 swings around the axis of the central shaft portion 6f and tilts upward to the right because the fixed bearing 9c can slide with the large diameter portion 6b of the central shaft portion 6f. In the reference state, the pair of left and right lower wheels 7D with the shaft center located in the horizontal position can easily and reliably follow the concave surface rising to the right on the right side of the center of the lower rail 4. Although not shown, when a seismic motion in the front-rear direction Y occurs, each upper wheel 7U rolls on the concave surface of the upper rail 5 similarly to the lower wheel 7D, and the supported member H moves relative to the supporting member S. As a result, the supported member H is raised from the lowest position in the reference state, and receives a restoring force corresponding to the displacement, and repeats vibration. However, the load of the supported member H does not reach the support member S directly. Since the vehicle always passes between each wheel and the axle, the friction between the wheel and the axle effectively acts as a damping force and is isolated. Here, when an earthquake motion in the left-right direction X occurs, the lower rail 4 and the four lower wheels 7D rolling on the lower rail 4
Although there is inevitable play between the wheels, each wheel is firmly pressed against the lower rail 4 at four points due to the formation of the flange 7 b, and therefore, around the vertical center axis of the connecting member 6. Rotating yawing does not occur. In addition, upper rails 5 and 4 when an earthquake motion in the front-rear direction Y occurs.
The same applies to the upper wheels 7U. In addition, since the crossing bases 6a are fixed to each other at the center, a stronger yawing prevention effect can be obtained. Usually, the seismic motion is generated by a combination of two components in the left-right direction X and the front-rear direction Y. In this case, the supported body H is connected to each of the lower wheels 7D.
The lower rails 4 and the like, the upper wheels 7U and the upper rails 5 and the like effectively exert seismic isolation effects on their respective components.

Referring to FIG. 3, the operation of the seismic isolation device 10 will be described. In the reference state when the earthquake is not operating, as shown in FIG. 3, each lower wheel 7D of the seismic isolation device 10 is at a low position equidistant from the center of the lower rail 4, and each upper wheel 7U is connected to the upper rail 5
Is at a low position equidistant from the center of the support member H, and the supported member H is stationary above the support member S in a stable state at the lowest position. When an earthquake motion occurs, the support member 19a of the axle support portion 19 becomes a bearing 16g fixed to the intersection base 16f.
Is slidable with the base shaft portion 16a, so that it can swing about the axis of the cross base portion 16f and the center shaft portion 16h and follow the curved surface of each rail. The seismic isolation effect and the yawing prevention effect by the damping force due to the friction between the wheel and the axle are the same as those of the seismic isolation device 1, and the detailed description is omitted. The seismic isolation device 10 is different from the seismic isolation device 1 in that the configuration of the coupling member 16 is a pipe-shaped center member 16e at the center and two circular hollow pipe-shaped cross bases 16f crossing in a cross shape. Step and center member 1
6e radially protruding from the center of the left and right front and back,
Since the horizontal plane including the axis of each central shaft portion 16h is spaced vertically, the seismic isolation device 10 has a higher overall height even if the size around the wheels is the same as the seismic isolation device 1. In addition, since it can be manufactured using a general-purpose material as compared with the coupling member 6 of the seismic isolation device 1, there is a great advantage in terms of cost. In addition, since each intersection base 16f is fixed to the center member 16e, a strong yawing prevention effect can be obtained. In a modified example in which the cross base 16f and the base shaft 16a are fixed, the operation is the same as that of the seismic isolation device 1.

Referring to FIG. 5, the operation of the seismic isolation device 20 will be described. In the reference state when the earthquake is not operating, as shown in FIG. 5, each lower wheel 7D 'of the seismic isolation device 20 is located at the lowest position in the center of the lower rail 4', and each upper wheel 7U is located at the center of the upper rail 5. And the supporter H is stationary above the supporter S in a stable state at the lowest position. When the seismic motion in the front-rear direction Y occurs, the operation of the upper wheels 7U with respect to the upper rail 5 and the seismic isolation action by the damping force due to the friction between each wheel and the axle are the same as those of the seismic isolation device 1, and therefore, detailed description is omitted. . When an earthquake motion in the left-right direction X occurs, each lower wheel 7D 'is moved to the lower rail 4'.
Rolling on the concave surface of the lower rail 4 ′, and the supported member H is shifted relative to the supporting member S in the left-right direction X from the center of the lower rail 4 ′.
As a result, the supported member H is raised from the lowest position in the reference state, and receives a restoring force corresponding to the displacement, and repeats the vibration.
The load of the supported member H is: the supported member H → the upper rail connecting member 3
→ Upper rail 5 → Upper wheel 7U → Upper axle 8U → Via upper support 9a ', central shaft 6f and intersection base 6a →
Through the lower cross base 6a 'and the central shaft 6f' → the lower wheel 7D '→ the lower rail 4' → the lower rail connecting member 2 → the support S is reached to the support S, so that each wheel and the axle The friction between them acts effectively as a damping force and is isolated.
The seismic isolation device 20 is different from the seismic isolation device 1 in that each lower wheel 7D 'that rolls on the concave surface of the lower rail 4' uses a single pair of individual lower wheels 7D '. Although there is no configuration equivalent to 9 and the number of lower wheels can be reduced by half, there is a merit of simpler structure compared to the seismic isolation device 1, but the lower wheels 7D 'need to be larger than the upper wheels 7U due to the load bearing capacity. The horizontal plane including the center axis of the center shaft 6f 'and the center of the center shaft 6f is spaced K, and the upper wheel 7
Even if the size around U is the same as the seismic isolation device 1, the height of the entire seismic isolation device increases. Against yawing,
Although the upper rail 5 and the upper wheels 7U are only supported at four points for the seismic motion in the front-rear direction Y, the upper cross base 6a is fixed to the lower cross base 6a 'at the center, and the left-right X earthquake Even in extreme cases, it can be sufficiently prevented.
