- Prior art patent document published EP 1 151 800 A2 discloses a silenced nozzle head for discharging fire extinguishing gases.
- the nozzle head comprises a body forming a cylindrical cavity housing filter elements made of porous material, and a perforated disk closing the cavity.
- the filter elements are made of sintered material and are two superimposed thick disks housed in the cavity.
- the body comprises a cylindrical wall that can be provided with apertures forming lateral or radial discharge passages.

- the nozzle head comprises a base with an opening forming a gas input, a closed wall made of porous material and extending longitudinally from the base so as to form a distal opening, a front wall made of porous material closing the distal opening of the closed wall, and a fastening ring arranged against an outer face of the front wall and attached to the base by longitudinal screws.
- the cavity housed a filter element made of porous material causing a counter-pressure and a pressure drop for the gas being discharged there through.
- the closed wall shows an increased thickness at the location of the screws which extend through the wall. This renders the manufacturing of the wall more complex and expensive.
- Other prior art documents are US 2014/069663 A1 and JP 2017 104560 A .
- the invention has for technical problem to provide a head for a gas discharge, in particular for a fire extinguishing gas discharge, that causes a reduced pressure while reducing the noise generated when discharging the gas.
- the invention is directed to a silenced head for a gas discharge, in particular for a fire extinguishing gas discharge, comprising: a base with an opening forming a gas input; a closed wall made of porous material and extending longitudinally from the base so as to form a distal opening; a front wall made of porous material closing the distal opening of the closed wall; a fastening ring arranged against an outer face of the front wall and attached to the base by longitudinal screws; wherein the ring comprises a ring portion and webs extending radially from the ring portion so as to form contact surfaces for the front wall.

- the porous material of the closed wall and/or of the front wall is a metallic sintered material.
- the invention is particularly interesting in that it provides a gas discharge nozzle assembly that generates a limited counter-pressure and pressure drop while remaining silent, essentially by maximizing the surface of porous material and thereby limiting the flow speed of the gas.
- Figure 1 is a perspective view of a silenced head for a gas discharge, in particular for a fire extinguishing gas discharge, according to the invention.
- the silenced head 2 comprises a base 4 with a generally circular plate (not visible in figure 1 ), a gas inlet at the centre of the circular plate (at the bottom in figure 1 ), and an outer edge 4.1 forming a shoulder.

Figure 1 is a perspective view of a silenced head for a gas discharge, in particular for a fire extinguishing gas discharge, according to the invention. - The silenced
head 2 comprises abase 4 with a generally circular plate (not visible infigure 1 ), a gas inlet at the centre of the circular plate (at the bottom infigure 1 ), and an outer edge 4.1 forming a shoulder. For instance, agas discharge nozzle 14 is mounted on the opening at the centre of thebase 4. The silencedhead 2 comprises also acircular wall 6 extending along thelongitudinal axis 7 of thehead 2, with a proximate edge 6.1 housed in the shouldered edge 4.1 of thebase 4. The circular wall is preferably circular so as to form a cylinder.
