Tömegtartó

Tömegtartó is a Hungarian term that translates to "mass retainer" or "mass holder" in English. It refers to a component or system designed to secure and prevent the movement or displacement of a significant mass or weight. The term is often encountered in engineering and construction contexts where stability and load bearing are critical.

In practical applications, a tömegtartó can take various forms. It might be a heavy baseplate in machinery designed to counteract vibrations and ensure operational stability. In civil engineering, it could refer to a structure or ballast that provides counterweight to prevent a larger structure, such as a bridge or a crane, from tipping over. The design of a tömegtartó depends heavily on the specific mass it needs to retain and the forces it is expected to withstand. Factors like material strength, shape, and anchoring methods are crucial considerations in its engineering. The primary function is to provide a stable reference point or to absorb or resist forces that would otherwise compromise the integrity or functionality of a system.
