Abstract
A seismic isolation device comprises an isolation support and an inerter unit arranged on the side of the isolation support, the isolation support having an upper plate and a lower plate, the inerter unit having a rotating rod extending to the side of the lower plate and a flywheel linked with the rotating rod, wherein when the upper and lower plates of the present invention undergo relative displacement due to the occurrence of an earthquake, the inerter unit provide an inertance to reduce the displacement reaction, thereby providing better seismic isolation effect.
