Definitions

  • the invention relates to the field of acoustic insulation.
  • the invention relates to an elementary cell of an acoustic metamaterial, and an acoustic screen comprising such a cell.
  • the known acoustic insulators of the state of the art rely on the use of intrinsic characteristics of materials in terms of absorption or reflection of sound waves.
  • the materials conventionally used for this purpose are typically porous materials, such as metal foams or polymeric materials, rock wool, glass, cotton, cork or agglomerated wood fibers.
  • a problem posed by the use of such materials lies in the fact that the choice of the material to be used is dictated by the intrinsic characteristics of the material, which limits the possibility of choosing the material with respect to a given application. In addition, relying on the intrinsic properties of the material also limits the frequency range of material response as well as manufacturing techniques.
  • acoustic panels made from such materials are heavy and bulky, especially those used for low frequencies.
  • the objective of the present invention is to solve the problems of the acoustic insulators known from the state of the art.
  • the aim of the invention is to propose a sound insulation solution which is effective and which makes it possible to have flexibility in the choice of material and the frequency range.
  • the invention also aims to reduce the size and weight of the acoustic panels
  • the subject of the invention is an elementary cell of acoustic metamaterial according to claim 1.
  • the open groove on the surface of the solid material body constitutes a reasoning cavity which makes it possible to have a high degree of spatial confinement of the acoustic energy. This confinement therefore allows good absorption of the sound waves. This also helps to induce a reduction in the reflection and transmission of sound waves.
  • solid materials for example: wood, glass, metals and polymers. This therefore allows a large margin of maneuver as regards the manufacturing techniques employed.
  • the elementary cell according to the invention can be used for a wide frequency range, ranging from 100Hz to 10kHz, which corresponds respectively to wavelengths between 3.5 meters and 3.5 centimeters.
  • the resonance frequency is related to the effective length p eff of the cavity by the expression c being the speed of sound in air.
  • the inventors have, moreover, observed that the opening width of the cavities “1” plays a determining role in the dissipation of acoustic energy.
  • the width 1 corresponding to the gap between the walls of the groove.
  • the maximum energy density reached calculated as the sum of the kinetic energy and the potential energy, evolves logarithmically with respect to the width of the openings E max ⁇ log( l )
  • the energy density confined in the cavity is controlled by the cavity width.
  • the groove is cylindrical, polygonal or rectilinear.
  • the flexibility in terms of groove geometry allows you to choose the pattern you want, for example to improve the aesthetics of the overall structure.
  • said groove is discontinuous and is in the form of sectors separated by the material solid constituent of the body. This widens the absorption frequency band.
  • the cell body comprises several grooves. This increases the absorption of sound waves.
  • said grooves are concentric. This mode of distribution has the advantage of guaranteeing spatial homogeneity of absorption of the sound waves, due to the symmetry.
  • the groove(s) have(have) a constant width 1 over the entire depth p of said groove(s).
  • At least two grooves have widths 1 and depths p that are different from each other. This makes it possible to widen the absorption frequency band and to control the absorption efficiency by frequency. Indeed, the geometric dimensions of the grooves make it possible to control both the frequency and the efficiency of the absorption.
  • the depth p determines the absorption frequency of each groove, and the width 1 determines its absorption efficiency.
  • the solid material body comprises at least one through notch.
  • a notch allows the circulation of air and promotes heat exchange between two media separated by the cell or a panel comprising the cell.
  • groove (s) is (are) folded (s) so as to have only one opening and several folds inside the cell.
  • the space folding technique makes it possible to reduce the thickness of a cell. This reduction in thickness is particularly important to obtain a low frequency absorption without increasing the thickness of the cell.
  • the thickness of the structure defined by the depth of the groove, can be divided by 10, while maintaining the same absorption performance.
  • At least one groove contains a fluid or polymer.
  • Said fluid or polymer can be contained using a thin membrane on the surface of said cell. This makes it possible to induce or increase acoustic absorption at even lower frequencies, depending on the nature of the fluid, i.e. gas or liquid, or of the polymer.
  • the cell body is cylindrical, parallelepipedal or pyramidal. This flexibility regarding the overall shape of the cell facilitates the design.
  • the invention also relates to an acoustic screen in the form of a panel comprising at least one elementary cell of metamaterial according to the invention.
  • a acoustic screen in the form of a panel comprising at least one elementary cell of metamaterial according to the invention.
  • Such a screen can only comprise elementary absorbing cells according to the invention, but it can also comprise other acoustic elements, for example reflective acoustic cells.
  • said acoustic screen comprises a multitude of elementary cells according to the invention, arranged so that each cell is capable of acting on another neighboring cell, so as to modify the resonance frequencies. It also allows you to generate an interaction favorable to the absorption of sound waves. The interaction between cells makes it possible to broaden the absorption spectrum and to locally increase the transmission or the reflection, which makes it possible to better isolate a room or to suppress its noise.
  • plane of the panel is meant, in the sense of the present application, the surface of the panel which can be flat or curved.
  • the elementary cells are arranged in said panel periodically.
  • said panel For example, according to particular square, triangular or honeycomb-shaped patterns.
  • the periodicity patterns make it possible to promote the emergence of an attenuation effect due to the network arrangement of resonant units.
  • FIG. 1a represents isometric view of an elementary cell 1 of an acoustic metamaterial.
  • FIG. 1b and 1c represent respectively a top view and a view of a longitudinal section along the axis AA of cell 1.
  • the cell 1 comprises a cylindrical solid body 2 comprising a groove 3 which is also cylindrical.
  • Groove 3 is characterized by a depth p and a width 1, as shown in figure 1c . Width 1 being the distance between the side walls of groove 3.
  • the presence of the groove which constitutes a reasoning cavity, makes it possible to have a high degree of spatial confinement of the acoustic energy, which consequently makes it possible to absorb the sound waves and induce a reduction in the reflection and the transmission.
  • the depth p defines the resonance frequency and the width 1 determines the efficiency of the cell. It is therefore possible to play on these two parameters to adjust the frequency and the efficiency of absorption of the sound waves by the elementary cell 1.
  • FIG. 2a represents an isometric view of an elementary cell 1′ parallelepipedic.
  • THE figures 2b and 2c represent respectively a top view and a view of a longitudinal section along the axis A'A', of the cell 1'.
  • the cell 1' comprises a solid parallelepipedal body 2' comprising a linear groove 3'.
  • the groove 3' is characterized by a depth p' and a width 1', as in the case of the example of the figure 1c .
  • FIG. 3a represents an isometric view of an elementary cell 10 comprising a cylindrical solid body 20 and three concentric cylindrical grooves 30, 31, 32.
  • figures 3b and 3c represent respectively a top view and a view of a longitudinal section along the axis BB, of the cell 10.
  • the three grooves 30, 31, 32 have the same depth and the same width as shown in the figure 3c .
  • FIG. 3d figure illustrates a view of a section similar to the view illustrated in the figure 3c , a cell 10' which comprises a solid cylindrical body 20' and three concentric cylindrical grooves 30', 31', 32'.
  • the cell 10' is identical to that 10 illustrated in the figures 3a to 3C , except as regards the depths and widths of the grooves 30', 31', 32' which are different for each of the three grooves 31', 32', 33'. This makes it possible to have a different resonant frequency and absorption efficiency for each groove.
  • FIG 4a represents an isometric view of a 10" parallelepipedic elementary cell.
  • figures 4b and 4c represent respectively a top view and a view of a longitudinal section along the axis B"B", of the cell 10".
  • the 10" cell has a solid 20" parallelepipedic body comprising three grooves 30", 31", 32" which have the same depth and the same width as shown in the sectional view of the figure 4c .
  • FIG 5a represents, an isometric view, of an elementary cell 100 according to an embodiment, in which the cell 100 comprises a solid cylindrical body 200 and a cylindrical groove 300 folded.
  • THE figures 5b and 5c represent respectively a top view and a view of a longitudinal section along the axis CC, of the cell 100.
  • FIG. 5c illustrates the folds of the groove 300.
