Energy dissipation device for structures and equipment
12498014 · 2025-12-16 · ·

The present disclosure relates to an energy dissipation device and system, comprising a hollow cylinder adapted to be filled with solid balls, and a longitudinal member/shaft having short rods protruding radially therefrom. The shaft having rods is movably disposed of within the hollow member and solid balls are filled and secured in the cylinder thereafter, such that two ends of the longitudinal member extend outside of the hollow member, and the rods and solid balls remain within the hollow cylinder. The ends of the device may be configured with structures or equipment. The movement of the shaft along a longitudinal axis of the cylinder, upon receiving an energy impact in an event of seismic activity, wind loads, and/or man-made vibrations, results in friction between the solid balls and the rods of the shaft, which facilitates dissipation of the received energy.
