Coating device for anti-vibration mount and method for coating anti-vibration mount
A coating device for anti-vibration mounts coating a first fitting of each of a first and a second anti-vibration mounts respectively including the first fitting appearing on an outer surface of a first end portion in a longitudinal direction and a second fitting attached to a second end portion includes a coating spray that coats the first fitting and a mount support portion that supports the first and the second anti-vibration mounts on the second attachment fitting side. The first anti-vibration mount has an outer circumference protrusion portion that protrudes from the circumference of the second fitting. The second anti-vibration mount has a fitting protrusion portion that is the second fitting itself protruding. The mount support portion has a pair of supporting wall portions that support the outer circumference protrusion portion from both sides and a recess portion into which the fitting protrusion portion fits.
Shock absorbers having internal jounce control
Shock absorbers having internal jounce control are disclosed. An example shock absorber disclosed herein includes an inner tube defining a cavity and an outer tube surrounding the inner tube to define a reservoir between the inner tube and the outer tube. The cavity is in fluid communication with the reservoir. A jounce bumper is positioned in the reservoir between the inner tube and the outer tube.

Tower vibration damper
The present invention relates to a wind turbine tower comprising a tower vibration damper (100) with a tuned mass damper and one or more impact damping units (113, 114, 115, 200, 300, 400). The tuned mass damper comprises a pendulum structure (101, 208), a chamber connecting a friction media (112) to the pendulum structure (101, 208) is at least partly immersed, and a suspension arrangement (103-111) suspending the pendulum structure (101, 208) inside the wind turbine tower such that the pendulum structure (101) is allowed to displace from a neutral position towards the outer boundary (102) of the chamber. The impact damping units (113, 114, 115, 200, 300, 400) are positioned between the pendulum structure (101, 208) and the outer boundary (102), such that the outer boundary (102) of the chamber and the pendulum structure (101, 208) may collide via the impact damping units (113, 114, 115, 200, 300, 400).

ANTIVIBRATION UNIT ATTACHMENT STRUCTURE
An antivibration unit attachment structure according to the present aspect includes: a vibration absorption part having a first elastic member which is elastically deformable in a first direction and which is connected to a vibration generation part; and a second elastic member which supports the vibration absorption part and which is connected to a vibration reception part. The second elastic member includes a movable part that extends from the vibration absorption part to both sides in a second direction and that is supported by the vibration reception part. The second elastic member is elastically deformable in the first direction and has an elastic coefficient different from that of the first elastic member. The vibration reception part includes a regulation member that comes into contact with at least one of the vibration absorption part and the second elastic member and that limits displacement of the second elastic member to the first direction.
