This study proposes a novel zero-stiffness vibration isolator and investigates its dynamic responses under micro-oscillation with a friction consideration. The novel vibration isolator is based on the mechanism of a cam-roller Quasi-Zero-Stiffness (QZS) system while with improvement by reducing its system components. The proposed vibration isolator consists of a designed bearing, which can provide stiffness responses in the radial direction, and an inserted rod with curved surface. Without the precise cooperation between the positive and negative stiffness systems required in a typical QZS isolator, the designed single stiffness system can provide the high-static-low-dynamic stiffness characteristic directly. The static characteristics of the stiffness performance are numerically confirmed, and then the dynamic responses with friction consideration at the contact surfaces are discussed. The displacement transmissibility in low frequency range is numerically validated when applying harmonic excitation on the base. The analysis results of this study reveal a unique vibration isolating performance of the zero-stiffness system under frication consideration.
