Viscoelastic bracing damper

Abstract

The present invention relates to a viscoelastic bracing damper (100), comprising: a cylinder (101); an inner core (102) extended through the cylinder (101) without contacting an inner surface of the cylinder (101), thereby having a barrel portion formed between the inner surface of the cylinder (101) and the inner core (102); a joint (103) connecting a front connector (104) to one end of the inner core (102); a stopper (105) connecting an end connector (106) to an another end of the inner core (102); and characterised by a damping means (107) extended substantially along a length of the barrel portion; wherein the damping means (107) is compressed between the inner surface of the cylinder (101) and the inner core (102) for absorbing vibration loads.
