Abstract

Abstract In a damper comprising a conductor-grasping element and a weight, said element providing a box-shaped housing so that a portion of said weight can be introduced into it, whereby elastic or resilient bodies having suitable shapes are disposed between the spaces defined by the inner surface of said box-shaped housing and outer periphery of that portion of said weight within said housing so that said weight is held resiliently by said housing through said elastic or resilient bodies.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 101 words
A vibration damper for use with electrical conductors comprising a conductor grasping element providing a box-shaped housing, a weight having a portion introduced into said housing so that between the inner surface of said housing and the outer periphery of said portion there are formed suitable shaped spaces and resilient body means disposed in said spaces with each body means having an outer periphery in contact with the inner surface of said housing and the outer periphery of said portion of said weight, whereby the center of gravity of said weight is positioned out of a perpendicular line including the conductor.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 101 words
A vibration damper for use with electrical conductors comprising a conductor grasping element providing a box-shaped housing, a weight having a portion introduced into said housing so that between the inner surface of said housing and the outer periphery of said portion there are formed suitable shaped spaces and resilient body means disposed in said spaces with each body means having an outer periphery in contact with the inner surface of said housing and the outer periphery of said portion of said weight, whereby the center of gravity of said weight is positioned out of a perpendicular line including the conductor.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 78 words
A vibration damper as defined in claim 1 wherein said box-shaped housing has a generally square shape and said weight has substantially a circular shape with a portion thereof being elongated so as to have a symmetrical shape with respect to the centerline of said weight, whereby said elongated portion is cut out at its upper and lower portions so as to have a symmetrical dovetail shape, so that each of said spaces has substantially a rectangular shape.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 24 words
A vibration damper as defined in claim 2 wherein said resilient body means include bodies having generally annular ring shapes made of elastic material.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 18 words
A vibration damper as defined in claim 1 wherein said resilient body means include bodies of arcuate C-shape.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 19 words
A vibration damper as defined in claim 4 wherein said arcuate C-shape bodies are formed of leaf spring means.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 18 words
A vibration damper as defined in claim 1 wherein said resilient body means include coiled leaf spring means.
