Claim 1

A vibration damper for pole structures and the like comprising in combination with a pole structure a housing affixed to the pole structure and a plurality of metal vibration damping discs of smaller outer peripheral dimensions than the interior cross section of said housing mounted for controlled and limited movement within the housing, each of said discs being provided with a centrally disposed aperture, means for loosely and vertically stacking said discs within said housing including a rod means which is centrally and vertically disposed within the housing and which is insertable within the apertures of said discs, said rod means having a substantially smaller outer peripheral dimension than the peripheral dimensions of the various disc apertures, and apertured washer means of a different material from said discs mounted on said rod means between adjacent discs and providing slippery contact surfaces and separators between adjacent discs wherein the relative sizes of the outer peripheries of the discs and the sizes of the central apertures of the discs are adjusted and correlated so as to prevent the discs from contacting the housing during movements of the same in the housing.
