Definitions

  • the present invention relates in general to the construction of walls and, in particular, to a system, method and apparatus for an acoustical frame element
  • frame elements of lumber or metal are typically assembled and formed into a frame.
  • Some frame elements are the load bearing members of a wall.
  • Frame elements are usually oriented vertically or horizontally.
  • Vertical frame elements are sometimes called studs, while horizontal frame elements are sometimes called tracks or channels.
  • plasterboard or other wall materials are usually attached to bom sides of the frame to form the partition or wall.
  • the plasterboard is attached to (he studs with fasteners such as screws.
  • This construction forms a direct mechanical bridge between the two plasterboard sides and the frame, which has a negative impact on the acoustical performance of the wall.
  • This concern can be been addressed by using mounting tape instead of screws to attach the plasterboard.
  • Mounting tape improves the acoustics since it decouples vibration from the plasterboard to the frame.
  • Another drawback is the difficulty of repositioning the plasterboard if it has been poorly positioned during installation.
  • the stud comprises at least two frame members coupled together by a compliant member.
  • the compliant member is formed from a material that is softer than that of the frame members.
  • the coupled frame members form a stud for the partition.
  • a partition comprises a first stud having a plurality of rigid first frame members coupled together by a compliant member.
  • a second stud is joined to the first stud to form a frame.
  • the second stud has a plurality of rigid second frame members coupled together by another compliant member. Boards arc joined to the frame on opposite sides thereof to form the partition.
  • an acoustical partition system comprises an upright stud extending in a substantially vertical orientation.
  • the upright stud has rigid first and second upright frame members coupled together by a compliant member.
  • a support stud extends in a substantially horizontal orientation and is joined to the upright stud to form a frame.
  • the support stud has rigid first and second support frame members coupled together by another compliant member. Boards are joined to the frame on opposite sides thereof to form the partition.
  • FIG. 1 is a front view of an embodiment of a partition frame having at least one of the studs from FIGS.2 - 13;
  • FIGS.2 - 12 are sectional end views of numerous embodiments of a stud shown in a portion of a partition;
  • FIG. 13 is an isometric view of another embodiment of a stud in a partition.
  • the use of the same reference symbols in different drawings indicates similar or identical items. DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT(S)
  • stud generically refers to a frame element that may be oriented in any geometry, such as vertically or horizontally.
  • a frame 21 may be formed from a plurality of the studs, such as vertical studs 23a and horizontal studs 23b.
  • the studs 23 may be joined together with fasteners, such as nails or screws.
  • each stud 23 may comprise at least two frame members 25, 27 mat are coupled together by a compliant member 29.
  • the frame members 25, 27 may be identical to each other, or differ in shape, profile, size, etc
  • the coupled frame members form the stud for the partition or wall.
  • the compliant member 29 may be formed from one or more layers of material(s).
  • the compliant member 29 is advantageously resilient, dampens the transmission of vibrations between the frame members, and provides lower thermal conductivity for the stud.
  • the compliant member 29 may comprise a resilient foam mat may comprise a polymer such as pol yvin yl -chloride, polyethylene, acrylic or polyurethane.
  • the compliant member 29 comprises one or more adhesive layers such as a pressure sensitive adhesive that is acrylic-based, butyl-based, rubber-based, epdm, eva, silicone, nitrile rubber or a hot melt adhesive, in still other embodiments the compliant member 29 may comprise acrylic tape without foam or a tacky gel.
  • a pressure sensitive adhesive that is acrylic-based, butyl-based, rubber-based, epdm, eva, silicone, nitrile rubber or a hot melt adhesive
  • the compliant member 29 may comprise acrylic tape without foam or a tacky gel.
  • the compliant member may have a density in a range of about 30 kg/m 3 to about 600 kg/m 3 , or about 1.40 kg/m 3 to about 500 kg/m 3 .
  • the compliant member also may have a porosity in a range of about 10% to about 95%, or about 30% to about 80%.
  • the compliant member may have a Young's modulus in a range of about 10 kPa to about 5 MPa, at 20°C and 1 Hz. In other embodiments, the Young's modulus is less than about 10 MPa, at 20°C and 1 Hz.
  • the standard describing the test method for Young's modulus may comprise ISO 6721-1 , 4, 1 1 , 12.
  • Embodiments equipped with one or more compliant members provide an acoustical improvement over conventional studs. For example, when used on a wall with two layers of 5/8" gypsum boards on each side and R13 fiberglass batts in the cavity, comparing a metal stud configured in accordance with one embodiment to a conventional metal stud, provides an average improvement of 2 dB below 500 Hz. Moreover, an average improvement of 6 dB is provided above 500 Hz. This provides an overall improvement of 5 STC points.
