Abstract:
A base isolation unit includes a vibration-source connector to be connected with a structure subjected to seismic vibration, an isolated-object connector to be connected with an object to be isolated from vibration, and located at a predetermined distance from the vibration-source connector in a predetermined base isolation direction, and a movement regulator. The movement regulator is located between the vibration-source connector and the isolated-object connector and includes an elastic body applied with a preload and subjected to a pressure caused by an external force in the base isolation direction. The movement regulator keeps the distance unchanged when the external force is equal to or less the preload, and changes the distance by making the vibration-source connector movable when the external force exceeds the preload. The base isolation unit is usable repeatedly and in environments without electricity, and achieving isolation from seismic vibration while keeping stiffness in conditions other than earthquakes.

Claim (Index 9):
The base isolation unit according to  claim 2 , wherein\n the movement regulator includes:\n a tensile-side casing to house the tensile-side elastic body; \n a compressive-side casing disposed at a side of the tensile-side casing in the base isolation direction and to house the compressive-side elastic body; \n a vibration damper disposed between the tensile-side casing and the compressive-side casing\n to generate a force in a direction of decreasing the distance between the vibration-source connector and the isolated-object connector when the distance increases, and \n to generate a force in a direction of increasing the distance when the distance decreases; \n \n a tensile-force applicator located between the tensile-side elastic body and an end of the tensile-side casing on a side where the vibration damper does not exist, to apply a pressure to the tensile-side elastic body; \n a compressive-force applicator located between the compressive-side elastic body and an end of the compressive-side casing on a side where the vibration damper exists, to apply a pressure to the compressive-side elastic body; and \n an arm having a predetermined length and to link the tensile-force applicator and the compressive-force applicator.
