Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen akustischen Absorber gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 sowie eine Verwendung eines derartigen akustischen Absorbers gemäß Anspruch 13.The invention relates to an acoustic absorber according to the preamble of
Akustische Absorber zur Absorption von Schallwellen oder zur akustischen Gestaltung von Räumen, die in Form einer mit Öffnungen versehenen Platte ausgebildet sind, sind aus dem Stand der Technik bekannt. Beispielsweise offenbart die
Aus der
Das der Erfindung zugrunde liegende Problem besteht darin, eine möglichst einfach bereitstellebare und dennoch möglichst effiziente Schallabsorption zu ermöglichen.The problem underlying the invention is to enable as simple as possible and yet as efficient as possible sound absorption.
Dieses Problem wird durch den akustischen Absorber mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 sowie durch die Verwendung eines solchen Absorbers gemäß Anspruch 13 gelöst. Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen angegeben.This problem is solved by the acoustic absorber having the features of
Danach wird ein akustischer Absorber bereitgestellt, mit
- einem Träger, der eine Mehrzahl von Aussparungen aufweist; sowie
- einer aus einem Lack gebildeten Beschichtung, die die Aussparungen überdeckt,
- wobei diejenigen Abschnitte der Beschichtung, die die Aussparungen überdecken, jeweils mindestens zwei durch eine Öffnung voneinander getrennte Segmente ausbilden, als Schaum oder luftundurchlässig ausgebildet sind.
- a carrier having a plurality of recesses; such as
- a coating formed from a lacquer which covers the recesses,
- wherein those portions of the coating which cover the recesses, each forming at least two segments separated by an opening, are formed as foam or impermeable to air.
Die Beschichtung erfolgt insbesondere auf einer "Sichtseite" des Trägers, d.h. einer Seite des Trägers, die nach Montage des Absorbers sichtbar ist, also z.B. einer Montagestelle (etwa einer Wand) abgewandt ist. Beispielsweise ist die Sichtseite des Absorbers auch diejenige Seite, die einer Schallquelle zuzuwenden ist. Denkbar ist auch, dass die Beschichtung auf mehreren Seiten, insbesondere auf einander angewandten Seiten, des Trägers vorgesehen ist.The coating takes place in particular on a "visible side" of the carrier, i. one side of the support which is visible after assembly of the absorber, e.g. facing away from a mounting point (such as a wall). For example, the visible side of the absorber is also the side that is to be turned to a sound source. It is also conceivable that the coating is provided on several sides, in particular on mutually applied sides of the carrier.
Schallwellen, die auf den Absorber auftreffen, treten teilweise in die Aussparungen des Trägers ein, wobei Schallenergie dissipiert wird und die Schallwellen entsprechend gedämpft werden. Durch die Überdeckung der Öffnungen mit der Lackbeschichtung wird dieser Effekt verstärkt. Dies z.B. dadurch, dass die Lackbeschichtung oberhalb der Aussparungen jeweils mindestens eine Öffnung aufweist, die eine Verengung der Aussparung und damit eine erhöhte (reibungsbedingte) Dissipation der Schallenergie bewirkt.Sound waves impinging on the absorber partially enter the recesses of the carrier, dissipating sound energy and correspondingly attenuating the sound waves. By covering the openings with the paint coating this effect is enhanced. This e.g. in that the lacquer coating above the recesses in each case has at least one opening which causes a constriction of the recess and thus an increased (friction-induced) dissipation of the sound energy.
Die Variante der Erfindung, wonach die die Aussparungen überdeckenden Abschnitte der Beschichtung luftundurchlässig ausgebildet sind, kann insbesondere verwendet werden, wenn die flächenbezogenen Masse der Beschichtung klein ist. Die luftundurchlässige Gestaltung der Beschichtungssegmente hat insbesondere den Vorteil, dass sich eine im Wesentlichen homogen, plane Oberfläche ergibt, die z.B. auf einfache Weise gereinigt werden kann.The variant of the invention, according to which the sections of the coating covering the recesses are made impermeable to air, can be used in particular if the surface-related mass of the coating is small. The air-impermeable design of the coating segments has the particular advantage that a substantially homogeneous, planar surface is obtained, which is e.g. can be easily cleaned.
Im Fall der Variante der Erfindung, wonach die Lackschicht im Bereich der Aussparungen jeweils zumindest zwei voneinander getrennte Segmente ausbildet, können die Segmente jeweils zumindest im Wesentlichen geschlossen ausgebildet sein. Dies bedeutet insbesondere, dass die Segmente (bzw. z.B. auch die gesamte Beschichtung) kein offenporiges Lackmaterial aufweisen.In the case of the variant of the invention, according to which the lacquer layer forms at least two separate segments in the region of the recesses, the segments can each be formed at least substantially closed. This means, in particular, that the segments (or, for example, also the entire coating) do not have an open-pore lacquer material.
Gemäß einer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung verlaufen zumindest einige der Aussparungen schlitzartig, d.h. sie weisen eine Längsausdehnung auf, die größer ist (z.B. dreimal so groß) als ihre Breite. Die Öffnungen in der Lackschicht sind etwa jeweils in Form eines quer zu den Schlitzen verlaufenden Spaltes ausgebildet, wobei die Spalte z.B. jeweils eine Breite von 0,1 - 0,2 mm besitzen. Diese besondere Struktur der Lackbeschichtung im Bereich der Aussparungen kann insbesondere durch die Gestaltung der Ränder der Aussparungen und/oder der Dimensionierung der Aussparungen erzeugt werden. Etwa wird beim Erzeugen der Lackschicht (beispielsweise in Form einer Pulverlackierung oder einer Tauchlackierung) der Lack aufgrund von Kapillarkräften etwas in die Aussparungen gezogen und reißt dabei quer zu den Aussparungen auf, wodurch die voneinander getrennten Segmente der die Aussparungen überdeckenden Abschnitte der Lackbeschichtung entstehen. Möglich ist auch, dass vor dem Aufbringen der Lackbeschichtung Verschlusselemente in die Aussparungen eingebracht werden, die zur Stabilisierung der Lackbeschichtung im Bereich der Aussparungen dienen. Die Verschlusselemente können nach Erzeugung der Lackbeschichtung in den Aussparungen verbleiben oder auch entfernt werden.According to one embodiment of the invention, at least some of the recesses run slot-like, ie they have a longitudinal extent which is larger (for example three times as large). as their width. The openings in the lacquer layer are each approximately in the form of a gap running transversely to the slots, wherein the gaps each have, for example, a width of 0.1-0.2 mm. This particular structure of the paint coating in the region of the recesses can be achieved in particular by the design of the edges of the recesses and / or the Dimensioning of the recesses are generated. For example, when the lacquer layer is produced (for example in the form of a powder coating or dip coating), the lacquer is drawn somewhat into the recesses due to capillary forces and thereby tears transversely to the recesses, as a result of which the segments of the lacquer coating covering the recesses separate from each other. It is also possible that prior to the application of the paint coating closure elements are introduced into the recesses, which serve to stabilize the paint coating in the region of the recesses. The closure elements can remain in the recesses after removal of the lacquer coating or can also be removed.
Denkbar ist auch, dass zumindest einige der Aussparungen im Querschnitt zumindest näherungsweise kreisförmig ausgebildet sind, d.h. als Bohrungen. Die Aussparungen gehen insbesondere durch den gesamten Träger hindurch.It is also conceivable that at least some of the recesses in the cross section are at least approximately circular, i. as holes. The recesses go in particular through the entire carrier.
Denkbar ist auch, dass die Aussparungen in einem regelmäßigen Muster angeordnet sind und/oder z.B. zur Darstellung einer Bildinformation, insbesondere zur bildlichen Darstellung eines Objektes,dienen. Etwa sind die Aussparungen (insbesondere nach Art einer Perforation) entlang einer Mehrzahl von Linien (Konturlinien) angeordnet, die die Konturen eines Objektes darstellen. Die Aussparungen müssen nicht dieselbe Form, Größe und/oder Geometrie aufweisen. Des Weiteren ist auch möglich, dass die Abstände zwischen benachbarten Aussparungen variieren. Möglich ist auch, dass mehrere (z.B. unterschiedliche) Lackbeschichtungen übereinander angeordnet sind, wobei jede der Lackschichten Aussparungen aufweist. Die Aussparungen der verschiedenen Lackschichten sind insbesondere so angeordnet, dass sie einander zumindest teilweise überlappen.It is also conceivable that the recesses are arranged in a regular pattern and / or e.g. for displaying an image information, in particular for the pictorial representation of an object serve. For example, the recesses (in particular in the manner of a perforation) are arranged along a plurality of lines (contour lines) which represent the contours of an object. The recesses do not have to have the same shape, size and / or geometry. Furthermore, it is also possible that the distances between adjacent recesses vary. It is also possible that several (for example different) lacquer coatings are arranged one above the other, wherein each of the lacquer layers has recesses. The recesses of the different lacquer layers are in particular arranged so that they at least partially overlap each other.
Der Träger kann zumindest im Wesentlichen plan ausgebildet sein. Allerdings ist die Erfindung natürlich nicht auf eine bestimmte Beschaffenheit des Trägers beschränkt. Denkbar ist z.B. auch, dass der Träger zumindest abschnittsweise gewölbt, gefaltet oder gestuft ausgebildet ist. Die Grundform des Trägers (in Draufsicht) muss zudem nicht rechteckig sein. Vielmehr kommen im Prinzip beliebige Grundformen in Frage (z.B. rund oder gezackt). Bei dem Träger handelt es sich beispielsweise um eine Metall- oder Kunststoffplatte.The carrier may be at least substantially planar. However, the invention is of course not limited to a particular nature of the carrier. It is conceivable, e.g. Also, that the carrier is formed at least partially curved, folded or stepped. The basic shape of the carrier (in plan view) also need not be rectangular. Rather, in principle, any basic shapes come into question (for example, round or jagged). The carrier is, for example, a metal or plastic plate.

Die Sichtfläche 21 des Trägers 2 ist mit einer Lackbeschichtung 3 versehen, die mit Abschnitten 31 zumindest einige der Schlitze 22 überdeckt. Die Abschnitte 31 der Lackbeschichtung 3 sind aufgrund der Wirkung von Kapillarkräften etwas in den jeweiligen Schlitz 22 hineingezogen. Darüber hinaus weisen die Abschnitte 31 jeweils mehrere Segmente 311 auf, die durch quer zur Längsausbreitung der Schlitze 22 verlaufende Öffnungen in Form von Spalten 312 voneinander getrennt sind.The
Die Spalte 312 verkleinern die Schlitze 22 in ihrem oberen Bereich, wodurch die Dissipation von Schallwellenenergie erhöht wird. Die Spalte 312 entstehen insbesondere während der Erzeugung der Lackschicht 3, wobei die Anzahl der Spalte etwa von der Breite der Schlitze 22 und/oder der Beschaffenheit der Ränder der Schlitze abhängt. Es wird darauf hingewiesen, dass die Spalte 312 wie in
Es wird darauf hingewiesen, dass anstelle der Schlitze 22 (zumindest anstelle einiger der Schlitze 22) auch Aussparungen mit einer anderen Geometrie, z.B. kreisförmige Bohrungen oder sternförmige Öffnungen, verwendet werden können. Die Aussparungen (insbesondere die Schlitze 22) können auf im Prinzip beliebige Weise erzeugt werden, z.B. geschnitten, gespaltet, gestanzt, gesintert oder geätzt werden.It should be noted that instead of the slots 22 (at least instead of some of the slots 22), recesses of a different geometry, e.g. circular bores or star-shaped openings, can be used. The recesses (in particular the slots 22) can be generated in basically any manner, e.g. cut, split, stamped, sintered or etched.
Bei dem Träger 2 handelt es sich insbesondere um eine Materialplatte (z.B. eine Metallplatte). Denkbar ist jedoch auch, dass der Träger eine Folie, ein Stabanordnungen oder Drähte mit Fugen (als Aussparungen), Fasern, Fäden mit Fugen oder Gewebe, Vliese, Gewirke, Maschenware, bei der die Fugenabstände (d.h. die Abstände der Faser bzw. Fäden) so gewählt werden, dass diese durch die Lackbeschichtung 3 (hergestellt mit einem beliebigen Beschichtungsverfahren) überbrückt werden können.The

Insbesondere wird der Verlauf der linienartigen Aussparungen 22 so berechnet, dass sich eine möglichst hohe Schalldiffusität und/oder Schallabsorption ergibt. Dabei können die Linien 22, wie in
Beispielsweise wird der Verlauf der linienartigen Aussparungen 22 auf Basis des Verlaufs von Wellenfronten einer sich ausbreitenden Welle berechnet (insbesondere unter Verwendung geeigneter Differentialgleichungen), wobei ein ggf. von den Aussparungen darzustellendes Bild oder Muster gewissermaßen als Hindernis der Welle betrachtet wird.For example, the course of the line-
