20130061466 | MULTI-RESPONSE VIBRATION DAMPER ASSEMBLY - A damper assembly system that can provide for multiple frequency responses to control Aeolian vibration in EHV (Extra High Voltage) applications is disclosed. The damper assembly comprises an asymmetric design that enables two disparate frequency responses at either side of the clamp that attaches the damper to a suspended member or cable. Two additional frequency responses are enabled at an inlet point of each of the damper weights. The damper weights can have a rounded or egg-shape together with an inner cavity so as to control corona discharge in EHV applications. Additionally, the tuned weights can be of disparate mass as well as asymmetric distances from the clamp. | 03-14-2013 |
