Definitions

  • the present invention is concerned with a silencer, especially for muffling sound waves form combustion engines.
  • Silencers of the type described are known from DE-C-338 906 and NO-C-56 196.
  • the silencer according to the first mention patent comprises a house having two against eachother facing and to eachother connected parabolic hollow members where the exhaust gases are brought in near one or both focusing points. From the focusing point the sound waves will be reflected on the internal wall and deflected to parallel beams which at the opposite internal wall are deflected and directed against the second parabolic focusing point.
  • a dampening of the noice is aimed at by mixing and swirling of the sound beams, whereby an extension of the cross section area is present from the focusing points towards the middle of the device.
  • the known silencer has a comparatively complicated construction and an interference between different sound waves must be established to achieve effectivety.
  • Fig. 1 discloses a section I-I in Fig. 2
  • Fig. 2 discloses a section II-II in Fig. 1
  • Fig. 3 discloses a section corresponding to Fig. 2 of a second embodiment having another arrangement of the input
  • Fig. 4 discloses a section corresponding to Fig. 2 of a further embodiment of the invention
  • Fig. 5-7 are righthand use of the silencer on Fig. 2, disclosing different side wall designes
  • Fig. 8-11 are sections corresponding to Fig. 2 disclosing different designs of the top and bottom of the silencer according to the invention
  • Fig. 12 discloses a section according to Fig. 1 of a further embodiment of the silencer according to the invention.
  • the silencer according to the present invention comprises, as principally disclosed in Fig. 1, an input 1 for gases transmitting sound waves, an output 2 for the exhaust, a closed container comprising a top 7, a bottom 8 and a surrounding side wall 3, and a sound absorbing material 6.
  • the side wall 3 has the shape of an ellipses, whereby the input 1 terminates approximately at the first focusing point 4 and sound absorbing material is arranged on and around the second focusing point 5.
  • the combustion gases from a not shown combustion engine are brought into the container through the input 1 in such a way that the sound waves are dispersed substantially from the first focusing point 4 in all directions, thereby being reflected from the side wall 3 and directed against" the second focusing point 5 where the sound waves substantially are absorbed. Part of the sound waves is directed also straight forward from the input 1 and thereby being absorbed by the sound absorbing material 6 directly.
  • the input 1 may be arranged as disclosed in Fig. 2 or as disclosed in Fig. 3, in both cases however, the sound waves will enter the container substantially in the first focusing point 4.
  • the input 1 principally is a pipe extending through the side wall 3 and as far as to the first focusing point 4.
  • the input pipe can be drawn back as far as to the sidewall 3 without extending into the interior of the container. Principally this is disclosed in Fig. 3 where the input is terminated at the container wall, in this case the bottom 8.

Claims (12)

1. Silencieux, notamment pour amortir les ondes sonores de moteurs à combustion, caractérisé par un récipient fermé présentant un dessus (7), un fond (8) et une paroi latérale (3) reliant le dessus au fond et possédant une forme elliptique dans la section longitudinale médiane entre le dessus et le fond, par une entrée (1) des gaz transmettant les sons approximativement à un premier point de focalisation (4) des ellipses, par une sortie (2) au voisinage du deuxième point de focalisation (5) des ellipses, et par un matériau (6) absorbant les sons qui s'étend du dessus au fond, au moins au deuxième point de focalisation (5) des ellipses, lequel matériau (6) absorbant les sons étant ainsi conçu pour absorber substantiellement les sons.
2. Silencieux selon la revendication 1, caractérisé en ce que le fond (8) et le dessus (7) sont plats et disposés en angle, leur distance mutuelle augmentant ainsi du côté d'entrée avec le premier point de focalisation (4), vers le côté de sortie avec le deuxième point de focalisation (5).
3. Silencieux selon la revendication 1, caractérisé en ce que le fond (8) et le dessus (7) sont plats et disposés en angle, leur distance mutuelle diminuant ainsi du côté d'entrée au premier point de focalisation (4), vers le côté de sortie au deuxième point de focalisation (5).
4. Silencieux selon la revendication 1, caractérisé en ce que le fond (8) et le dessus (7) sont plats et disposés parallèlement entre eux.
5. Silencieux selon la revendication 1, caractérisé en ce que le fond (8) et le dessus (7) présentent un écartement augmentant des points de focalisation (4, 5) vers la zone centrale entre les points de focalisation.
6. Silencieux selon la revendication 1, caractérisé en ce que le fond (8) et le dessus (7) présentent un écartement diminuant des points de focalisation (4, 5) vers la zone centrale entre les points de focalisation.
7. Silencieux selon les revendications 1 à 6, caractérisé en ce qu'une boîte (9) contenant du matériau absorbant les sons est disposée sur le dessus, une ouverture (10) étant pratiquée dans le dessus au deuxième point de focalisation (5), reliant ainsi le matériau absorbant les sons (6) présent au deuxième point de focalisation (5) au matériau absorbant les sons de la boîte (9), et augmentant la quantité totale de matériau absorbant les sons.
8. Silencieux selon les revendications 1 à 7, caractérisé en ce que le matériau absorbant les sons (6) occupe une partie substantielle du volume du récipient.
9. Silencieux selon les revendications 1 à 7, caractérisé en ce que le matériau absorbant les sons (6) possède une forme cylindrique autour du deuxième point de focalisation (5).
10. Silencieux selon les revendications 1 à 9, caractérisé en ce que les parois latérales (3) sont droites entre le fond (8) et le dessus (7).
11. Silencieux selon les revendications 1 à 9, caractérisé en ce que les parois latérales (3) entre le fond (8) et le dessus (7) font partie d'un ellipsoïde.
12. Silencieux selon les revendications 1 à 9, caractérisé en ce que les parois latérales (3) sont rétrécies vers l'intérieur, depuis la section médiane du récipient vers le fond (8) et vers le dessus (7).
