(7) Further, the radius of the gears a 3 is larger than the radius of the gears b 4.

(8) Further, the hollow box 1, the H-shaped mass block 2, the gears a 3, the gears b 4, the rectangular frame 5, the steel ring 6, the steel sheet 8, the springs 9, the rotating shafts 10 and the balls 11 are made of stainless steel.

(9) Further, the section of the steel sheet 8 is processed into a “concave” shape to improve the bending stiffness.

(10) Further, the present invention can change damping parameters by adjusting the stiffness of the springs 9.

(11) Further, the present invention can change the damping parameters by adjusting the mass of the H-shaped mass block 2.

(12) The present invention has the working principle that:

(13) When the wall structure vibrates, the hollow box 1 vibrates synchronously with the structure, and the H-shaped mass block 2 has displacement hysteresis due to the action of inertia. The hollow box 1 and the H-shaped mass block 2 generate relative movement, thereby causing the gears a 3 and the gears b 4 to rotate. Two gears drive the rectangular frame 5, the springs 9 and the viscous dampers 7 to move, and apply a force opposite to the movement direction to the hollow box 1. The kinetic energy of the H-shaped mass block 2 is dissipated by the viscous dampers 7 and reset under the action of the springs 9.

(14) The mass of the mass block is set as m.sub.0; a viscous damping coefficient is c.sub.0; the spring stiffness is k.sub.0; an external load is p.sub.0(t); and the displacement of the mass block is x. Thus, a dynamic equation is:
m.sub.0{umlaut over (x)}+c.sub.0{dot over (x)}+k.sub.0x=p.sub.0(t)  (1)

(15) For the inertial mass amplification type tuned mass damper of the present invention, the H-shaped mass block is m.sub.1;

(16) 0$m_1=\frac{m_0}{\lambda }$
(wherein

(17) $\lambda =\frac{R}{r};$
R is the radius of the gears a; r is the radius of the gears b; and R>r); and the displacement generated under the action of the external load p.sub.1(t) is x.sub.1. When the displacement of the H-shaped mass block is x.sub.1, the rotating arc length of the gears a is set as l.sub.1 and the rotating arc length of the gears b is set as l.sub.2. Thus, l.sub.1=x.sub.1. The gears a and the gears b are fixedly connected, so that a rotating angle is the same, and an arc length formula is used to obtain:

(18) $\begin{array}{cc}\frac{l_1}{R}=\frac{l_2}{r}& \left(2\right)\end{array}$

(19) Thus, the rotating arc length of the gears b is

(20) $l_2=\frac{r}{R}{l}_1=\frac{x_1}{\lambda }.$
Because the rectangular frame is engaged with the gears b, the sliding displacement of the rectangular frame is

(21) $\frac{x_1}{\lambda }.$
For the elastic restoring force and the damping force, through gear devices, it can be seen from a functional principle that the magnification is λ, so that the dynamic equation is:

(22) $\begin{array}{cc}\lambda m_1{\stackrel{\mathrm{.Math.}}{x}}_1+c_1\frac{{\stackrel{.}{x}}_1}{\lambda }+k_1\frac{x_1}{\lambda }=p_1\left(t\right)& \left(3\right)\end{array}$

(23) For a general tuned mass damper, frequency is

(24) ${\omega }_0=\sqrt{\frac{k_0}{m_0}}.$
For the inertial mass amplification type tuned mass damper of the present invention, if k.sub.1=λk.sub.0, then frequency is

(25) ${\omega }_1=\sqrt{\frac{k_1\text{/}{\lambda }^2}{m_1}}=\sqrt{\frac{\lambda k_0}{{\lambda }^2{m}_0\text{/}\lambda }}=\sqrt{\frac{k_0}{m_0}}={\omega }_0.$
The frequencies are equal. Meanwhile, when the movement states of the mass blocks of the two dampers are consistent, i.e., x.sub.0=x.sub.1, {dot over (x)}.sub.0={dot over (x)}.sub.1, {umlaut over (x)}.sub.0={umlaut over (x)}.sub.1 and a damping ratio is c.sub.1=λc.sub.0, then a reaction force on the structure is P.sub.0(t)=P.sub.1(t). Therefore, when the same vibration reduction effect is achieved, the mass of the present invention is only

(26) $\frac{1}{\lambda }$
of the mass of the general tuned mass damper, and the size of λ depends on the radius ratio of the gears a and the gears b.

(27) In the inertial mass amplification type tuned mass damper of the present invention, the inertial damping force is amplified by adjusting the radius ratio of the gears a and the gears b; a good vibration reduction effect can be achieved by small mass; the larger the radius ratio is, the more obvious the vibration reduction effect is.

(28) In the inertial mass amplification type tuned mass damper of the present invention, the damping parameters can be conveniently changed by adjusting the mass of the mass block, the radius ratio of the gears a and the gears b and the spring stiffness.

(29) In the inertial mass amplification type tuned mass damper of the present invention, the design mass is small, which can avoid the adverse effects of excessive additional gravity on the structure and improve the performance of the structure.

(30) In the inertial mass amplification type tuned mass damper of the present invention, the occupied space is small, which can save more use area for the building and greatly improve the utilization efficiency of the building.

(31) The inertial mass amplification type tuned mass damper of the present invention has reasonable design, simple structure and convenient installation.
