Abstract

A noise barrier comprises elongate elements arranged on top of each other between H-section posts (6). The elements each comprise a metal or plastics tube formed from inter-connected sections (3) surrounding a glued-together mass (4) of recycled plastics granules with air spaces between them. The granules may be P.V.C, and there may be impurities or contaminants from the waste recycling process. The tubes are faced with plastics planks (1,2), of polystyrene or other waste plastics, adapted to interlock vertically.

Description

DESRI PTION FIGURE 1 SHOWS THE PERFORATED FACES OF THE PLANKS WHERE IN THE SOUND WAVES ENTER THE MAIN BODY.
FIGURE 2 IS AN EXPLODED CROSS-SECTION OF THE BARRIER PLANK SHOWING ALL OF THE COMPONENTS.
FIGURE 3 A PLAN VIEW OF THE BARRIER PLANKS IN THEIR ASSEMBLED FORM AND THE METHOD BY WHICH THEY ARE CARRIED BY THE SUPPORT POSTS.
FIGURE 4 CROSS-SECTIONS OF THE FULLY ASSEMBLED BARRIER PLANKS AND THE MEANS BY WHICH THEY SLOT INTO ONE ANOTHER WHEN STACKED VERTICALLY.
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION 1 THE PERFORATED RECYCLED POLYSTYRENE PLANK EXTRUDED TO A DESIGN TO ALLOW VERTICAL OR HORIZONTAL LOCATION IN A FIXED POSITION. THE PLANK IS THROUGH FASTENED OR GLUED TO THE PERFORATED TUBE BEHIND IT.
2 AS 1 BUT WITHOUT THE PERFORATIONS AND USED BOTH TO REFLECT THE NOISE AND SUPPORT THE STRUCTURE OF THE TUBE.
3 A PERFORATED TUBE IN TWO HALVES MANUFACTURED FROM METAL OR PLASTIC AND FIXED TOGETHER BY MEANS OF WELDING, GLUEING OR MECHANICAL DEVICE. PERFORATED END CAPS ARE USED TO RETAIN THE INFIL WITHIN THE TUBE.
4 THE INFIL CONSISTS OF GRANULES OF RECYCLED PLASTICS COVERED IN AN ADHESIVE TO TURN THE MASS INTO A STRUCTURAL COMPOSITE WHILST RETAINING AIR VOIDS FOR SOUND ATTENUATION. THE GRANULES ARE OF IRREGULAR SIZE AND PATTERN.
5 A PROPRIETRY FLEXIBLE SEALANT BETWEEN THE PLANK AND THE POST.
6 AN 'H' SECTION POST OF A SIZE TO SUIT THE WIDTH OF THE BARRIER PLANK AND THE REIGNING SOIL CONDITIONS.

Claims (6)

1 AN EXTERNAL NOISE BARRIER OF VARIABLE PROPORTIONS ATTENUATING SOUND BY THE ABSORPTION METHOD AND MANUFACTURED FROM NON-BIODEGRADABLE WASTE MATERIALS IN A RECYCLED FORM.
2 A PERFORATED NON CORROSIVE METAL OR PERFORATED PLASTIC TUBE AS IN CLAIM 1 CONTAINING NOISE ABSORBENT INFIL MATERIAL.
3 THE INFIL AS IN CLAIM 1 & 2 IS PVC OR OTHER PLASTIC GRANULATED WASTE SURFACE COATED WITH LATEX OR OTHER ADHESIVE. THE GRANULAR MATERIAL MAY ALSO CONTAIN IMPURITIES OR CONTAMINANTS FROM THE WASTE RECYCLING PROCESS.
4 THE TWO OUTER PLANKS ARE MANUFACTURED FROM RECYCLED POLYSTYRENE OR OTHER WASTE PLASTIC AND ARE DESIGNED TO LOCK TOGETHER WHEN STACKED INTO POSITION WITHIN THE BARRIER AS IN CLAIM 1. ONE OF THE PLANKS IS PERFORATED WHILST THE OTHER IS LEFT SOLID AND BOTH ARE FIXED TO THE INFIL TUBE EITHER MECHANICALLY OR BY MEANS OF AN ADHESIVE.
5 THE STRUCTURAL SUPPORT POST IS OF A PROPRIETY DESIGN 'H' SECTION MANUFACTURED FROM NON CORROSIVE METAL AND SET IN THE GROUND WITH A CONCRETE FOUNDATION OR BY MEANS OF GROUND ANCHORS.
6. THE BARRIER COMPOSITE PLANK SLOTS INTO THE 'H' SECTIONS AS PER CLAIM 5 AND IS SEALED INTO THE POST USING A TUBULAR OR FLEXIBLY SHAPED SEALANT.
