Abstract:
A columnic actuated spring loader can be incorporated into existing structures. The system includes: a base that is positioned on a floor, a vertical column having a proximal end that is secured to the base and a distal end, dual vertical rods having proximal ends that are secured to the base and distal ends, and upper and lower spring mechanisms. The distal ends of the column and rods support an upper bearing plate. Each spring mechanism includes a support member that is slidably secured to the dual vertical rods, dual springs that are slidably attached to the dual rods, and bracing which is a network of rigid members that interconnect the support member, column and dual rods. Loads are transferred from the upper bearing plate and support plates to the base. The energy is dissipated into the foundation. The bracings distribute energy between the dual rods and the column.

Claim (Index 11):
An earthquake force absorption system that comprises:\n a vertical column having a proximal end and a distal end; an upper bearing plate that is positioned on the distal end of the vertical column; a first vertical rod having a proximal end and a distal end on which the upper bearing plate is positioned; a first support member that is slidably secured to the first vertical rod; a first spring that is positioned between the first support member and upper bearing plate; a first matrix that is configured to interconnect the first support member, vertical column and first vertical rod; and at least compression assembly which is positioned in tandem below the first support member and wherein each compression assembly comprises:\n an intermediate slip plate that is slidably mounted to the vertical column and to the first vertical rod; \n an intermediate support member that is slidably secured to the first vertical rod; \n an intermediate spring that is positioned between the intermediate support and the intermediate slip plate; and \n an intermediate matrix that is configured to provide lateral and diagonal structural force stability to the intermediate support member, vertical column and first vertical rod, wherein the intermediate spring is aligned with the first spring along a first vertical axis.
