非対称ワイヤロープアイソレータ、及び製造方法
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP4492906
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A wire rope isolator that includes a wire rope (30) manipulated between a pair of mounting blocks (10,20) so that bights of wire rope having elastic properties are formed. A first mounting block (10) has at one end a blind hole (11) and a closely spaced lateral hole (12) that passes completely therethrough said mounting block (10). On the end of the first mounting block opposite that of the aforementioned pair of holes is a lone lateral hole (13) that passes completely therethrough the first mounting block (10). The second mounting block (20) has at opposite ends a lateral hole (21,22) that completely passes therethrough the second mounting block (20). To start the wire rope winding process, one end of the wire rope is maneuvered to the back wall of the blind hole (11) so that the end of the rope abuts the back wall. Tension is applied to the wire rope as it is manipulated through the lateral holes contained in the lateral blocks. It is desirable that the holes (11-13) of the first block (10) be perpendicular to the holes (21,22) of the second block (21). After four U-shaped bights have been formed in generally a cloverleaf pattern about the mounting blocks, the free end of the wire rope is passed completely through the lateral hole (12) nearest the originating blind hole (11). The wire rope is then secured to the mounting blocks by either crimping or staking. To minimize dimensional and stiffness variation in the assembled isolator, the tension is maintained after the winding process, After the crimping/staking process, the four bights created should possess spring-like properties capable of dampening vibrational energy. The four bights should have equivalent dimensions and stiffness.
