The KDamper is a novel passive vibration isolation and damping concept, based essentially on the optimal combination of appropriate stiffness elements, which include a negative stiffness element. In this paper, after a short review of the optimal design and the selection of the parameters of the KDamper, the main concept focuses on the implementation of the negative stiffness elements with a set of Belleville (disc) springs. The major benefits of the proposed structure are the size and the robustness of the structure. The theory and the design process of the disc springs are presented thoroughly, as well as of the spiral springs with ground ends, along with an initial structural design. Simulation results from three different case scenarios are demonstrated; for an initial displacement, an initial velocity and an external excitation. The results obtained from the simulations show very satisfactory behavior.

This paper takes the specific characteristics of pulverized coal room in thermal power plant as the starting point,firstly, this paper analyzes the process layout and structure selection, and then the structural design and vibration design requirements of coal crusher house are introduced in this paper. Finally, based on the engineering example, a new structure form of vibration isolation design is creatively proposed, which provides a new design idea for the practical engineering design
