Definitions
- Mounting means connects the 181/42, 50, 71 sound-absorbing units to one another and also mounts them on the exposed surface area of the support.
- the present invention relates generally to a sound absorber construction, and more particularly to a sound absorber construction for absorbing sound waves transmitted through a liquid medium. Still more specifically the invention relates to a composite sound absorber construction of the type under discussion.
- Sound absorbers per se including those specifically adapted for absorbing sound waves transmitted through a liquid medium, are already known.
- particularly absorption layers for absorbing sound waves transmitted through a liquid medium have a certain lack offlexibility which makes it difficult to affix them to doubly curved surfaces. This is a decided disadvantage which greatly limits the range of applicability of sound-absorbing units for this purpose.
- a further problem is that the individual sound-absorbing elements cannot be readily deformed in accordance with the requirements of a surface to which they are to be affixed.
- the sound-absorbing element itself is based on the principle utilizing liquid inclusions in an elastomeric material, then the application of the sound-absorbing element to a doubly curved surface may result in deformations of the liquid inclusions which disadvantageously influence the absorption characteristics.
- the liquid inclusion it is essential that the liquid inclusion be capable of moving from one location to another in response to the impingement of sound waves and consequent oscillation of the element, and subsequently to return to their original location.
- a concomitant object of the invention is to provide such a sound absorber construction which can be readily and quickly affixed to doubly or otherwise curved surfaces.
- the present invention provides a sound absorber construction for absorbing sound waves transmitted through a liquid medium which construction comprises, briefly stated, a support having an exposed surface area, a plurality of discrete sound absorbing units distributed over said exposed surface area with spacing from one another, and mounting means for connecting the sound-absorbing units to one another and for mounting them on the exposed surface area of the support.
- the sound-absorbing elements are in form of discrete sound-absorbing units which are suitably connected with one another and in turn thus connected to the support.
- the mounting means utilized for connecting the sound-absorbing units to one another and to the support may be of various different types. It may also utilize different types of materials and, because it may be very thin and flexible, it permits ready and simple affixing and accommodation of the entire sound absorber construction to most any desired surface. including and particularly doubly curved surfaces.
- the mounting means may include two superimposed foils, for instance of synthetic plastic material, between which the individual sound-absorbing units are located with spacing from one another, with the foils being connected-for instance by heat welding if they are of material permitting such processingto thereby maintain the sound-absorbing units in place.
- the composite of foils and sound-absorbing units is then affixed to a desired support surface. This may be accomplished in various different ways, for instance by means of adhesives or another suitable binder.
- the mounting means may be in form of a single or composite layer of embedding material which is affixed as by adhering to the exposed surface area of a support, and in which the sound-absorbing units are embedded.
- Such material may be soft and pliable at the time the units are embedded and may become tenacious, rigid or elastomeric as it sets.
- a further possibility is to utilize a net or mesh fabric with the discrete sound-absorbing units being disposed and retained in respective apertures of the mesh.
- a net or mesh may consist of synthetic or glass fibers, and the characteristics of these fibers may be so selected as to be compatible with the material by means of which the net or mesh with the secured sound-absorbing units is affixed to the surface area of the support.
- synthetic plastic fibers usable for the construction of such nets or mesh fabrics are synthetic high polymers. These may be used by themselves or in conjunction with glass fibers, and the latter may of course be used alone also.
- the use of glass fibers especially permits an improvement of the mechanical characteristics of the binder material which affixes the mesh or net with the sound-absorbing units to the support.
- the binder material may itself be a plastic on natural basis, or a synthetic plastic. It may also be a natural or synthetic elastomer.
- the exposed surface area of the support itself with recesses, .or with projections which define between themselves recesses, in which the respective discrete sound-absorbing units are located and retained in suitable manner.
- the configuration of the sound-absorbing units themselves is advantageously substantially button shaped because in this manner they can be very simply and readily embedded, inserted into openings of a meshor net-type fabric or introduced in recesses in or on the exposed surface area of the support which because of their simple configuration can be most readily produced.
- a button-shaped configuration is particularly suitable for mass production.
- the sound-absorbing units themselves may be of buttonshaped configuration or they may be encapsulated in buttonshaped casings. It is a particularly advantageous characteristic of making the sound-absorbing units rather small and of button-shaped configuration that they are not subject to deformation when they are affixed to the support and so that therefore their absorption characteristics are therefore not changed.
- FIG. 1 is a fragmentary diagrammatic section through a support to which a plurality of discrete sound-absorbing units are directly affixed;
- FIG. 2 is a view similar to FIG. I but illustrating the affixing of sound-absorbing units to a support by means of a net-type mounting means in conjunction with a binder material;
- FIG. 3 is a diagrammatic fragmentary plan view of the embodiment shown in FIG 2. illustrating the distribution of the sound-absorbing units
- FIG. 4 is a sectional view similar to FIG. 3 but illustrating the mounting of sound-absorbing units by means of superimposed foils;
- FIG. 5 is a diagrammatic section through one embodiment of a sound-absorbing unit according to the present invention.
- FIG. 6 is a view similar to FIG. 5 but illustrating a further embodiment of a sound-absorbing unit according to the present invention
- FIG. 7 is a view similar to FIG. 6 but illustrating a modified embodiment
- FIG. 8 is a view similar to FIG. 5 illustrating a further embodiment of the invention.
- reference numeral I identifies a plurality of discrete sound-absorbing units which in FIG. I are shown only in diagrammatic outline. These sound-absorbing units 1 may be of various different constructions. for instance of the embodiments illustrated specifically in FIGS. 5-8 which will be discussed subsequently.
- Reference numeral 2 identifies a portion of a support. such as the wall ofa liquid-containing vessel.
- the exposed surface area of the support 2b may of course be planar or nearplanar. it may be irregular or it may be curved in any manner.
- the exposed surface area 2a is provided with a plurality of spaced recesses 2b so configurated as to each accommodate therein one of the sound-absorbing units 1.
- the latter are provided with cutouts. depressions, recesses. or other abutment portions 3b. and springs 3 which are suitably affixed at 3a to the support 2 engage in the cutouts 3b and serve to retain the sound-absorbing units in their respective recesses 212.
- the springs 3 which may be leaf springs or which may be replaced by analogous means capable of performing the same functionand the cutouts 3b together constitutes a sound absorber construction according to the embodiment of FIG. I.
- the discrete sound-absorbing units 1 are each received and retained in an opening of a mesh-type or net-type retaining member 4. as also shown in FIG. 3 from which the distribution of the units I may be ascertained.
- the retaining member 4 may consist of synthetic fibers. of glass fibers, of a combination of such fibers or of other suitable material.
- the member 4 together with the retained sound-absorbing units 1 is embedded in a layer 5 of synthetic or elastomeric material which adheres to the support 2.
- the exposed side of this layer .5 has placed over it and secured thereto a cover foil or cover layer 6. which may also be ofsynthetic plastic material.
- the discrete sound-absorbing units 1 are located between two foils 7. 7a which may for instance consist of synthetic plastic material as illustrated. These toils 7. 7a are connected intermediate the spaced soundab- .sorbing units Ifor instance by heat welding if the character of their material permits this, by bonding or in other suitable manner-in order to retain the sound-absorbing units 1 at their intended locations.
- a layer 9 of suitable adhesive material for instance on a synthetic plastic basis. connects the thusobtained construction to the exposed surface area of the support 2.
- the spacing of the discrete sound-absorbing units I from one another does not disadvantageously influence the absorption characteristics obtained with the sound absorber construction according to the present invention. Because the active cross section of the sound-absorbing units is greater than the cross section of the individual units. For this reason it is also possible to introduce between the sound-absorbing units 1. which may be singleor multiple- ;tage resonant elements. other absorbent or scattering elements and to thereby significantly increase the range of applicability of the sound absorber construction according to the present invention. Specifically, this makes it possible to arrange absorption elements adjacent one another whose maximum absorption is selected with respect to different static pressure ranges, or which absorb according to different principles. without encountering in the production of such a sound absorber excessive technical difficulties as was heretofore the case.
- the mounting means including the material securing or embedding the sound-absorbing units to the support 2. be completely free of unintended air inclusions, such as air bubbles, voids or the like.
- FIGS. 5-8 show different sound-absorbing units suitable for use in the inventive sound absorber construction.
- the sound-absorbing units I of FIGS. 1-4 are most advantageously low-reflection water sound absorbers of one or several single-stage or multiple-stage resonance elements in form of neighboring membranes of elastomeric materials in front of or on a backing or base. with the elastomeric membranes being connected with a portion of the absorber which does not share the oscillatory movements of the membranes via a liquid.
- Constructions based on the above principle are already known and have been found to largely eliminate temperature dependence of sound absorption.
- the soundabsorbing units of generally button-shaped configuration in accordance with the present invention, it is further possible to eliminate static pressure effects within wide ranges. This is achieved, in accordance with the present invention, by so constructing the sound-absorbing units that they contain at least two internal spaces which communicate with one another through a flow-restricting gap and one of which contains the compressible medium whereas the other contains the liquid and is closed by the elastomeric membrane.
- FIG. 5 shows one possible embodiment of a sound-absorbing unit 1 according to the present invention.
- the arrows S in FIG. 5 indicate the direction of sound wave impingement upon the unit 1. and while they are not shown in FIGS. 6-8 it is to be understood that the direction of sound impingement is analogous as in FIG. 5, that is in each case the sound waves impinge in a direction from the top towards the bottom of the drawing.
- the unit I shown in FIG. 5 comprises a base 12 which in the illustrated embodiment is of metallic material. but which could be of a synthetic plastic material or of a combination of synthetic plastic material with metallic material.
- An exposed face of the base I2 is provided with a circular depression 12a. and the bottom wall of the same is further provided with an annular depression or recess 12b.
- the open side of the depression 12a is closed by a layer, membrane or diaphragm 13 of flexible-e.g., elastomeric-material.
- the depression 12a accommodates a liquid 14 such as a silicon oil, which is capable of broadband temperature-independent accommodation of the acoustical resistance of the unit 1 to the wave resistance of water.
- the depression 12b accommodates a compressible medium 15.
- Oscillations of the membrane 13 in response to impingement of the sound waves S force the liquid 14 from the depression 12a into the depression 1217 with compression of the compressible medium 15 therein, and subsequently the liquid then returns to the depression 120 in accordance with the principle already well known to those skilled in the art.
- FIG. 6 differs from that FIG. 5 of certain respects.
- Like reference numerals identify like elements.
- the base 12' is provided with an annular recess 12b which communicates with the recess 12a via a narrow flow-restricting annular gap 18.

- the presence of this flow-restricting gap 18 assures that the embodiment in FIG. 6 is largely independent with respect to its absorption characteristics of the exterior static pressure.
- FIG. 7 is analogous to that of FIG. 6. It differs from the latter primarily in that it is simpler to manufacture. Whereas in FIG. 6 the base member'12 requires machining in order to produce the recesses or depressions 12a, 12b and the flow-restricting gap 18 between them, these recesses and gap can be produced in a more simple manner in accordance with the embodiment of FIG. 7. Like reference numerals again identify like elements, but it is pointed out that in FIG. 7 less dimensional accuracy is required in making the recesses so that the same may be produced for instance by stamping.
- the membrance 13a may also be applied in somewhat different manner in that its edges overlap the outer sides of the base member 12'.
- the embodiment illustrated in FIG. 8 is a construction which is not only independent of temperature but also independent of exterior static pressure.
- the base member 12" is of substantially cup-shaped configuration with its interior constituting a circular or substantially circular depression 120 corresponding for instance to the depression 12a of FIG. 5.

- the interior of this apertured cup-shaped member 16 constitutes the equivalent of the recess 12b of FIG. 5 and accommodates the compressible medium 15.
- a fine-mesh net or similar material 17 Placed about the exterior of the apertured cupshaped member 16 is a fine-mesh net or similar material 17 whose small mesh apertures, through which the liquid 14 must pass when it is displaced from the recess 120" into the interior of the apertured member 16 in response to impingement of sound waves upon the membrane or diaphragm l3, constitute the equivalent of the flow-restricting gap 18 of FIGS. 6 and 7.
- the base members 12, 12', etc. are also possible to construct the base members 12, 12', etc., of two parts, with each part accommodating one of the recesses 12a, 12b, particularly in embodiments where the flow-restricting gap 18 is present, because each of the two parts can then be provided with one of these recesses and they can open at the interface at which the two parts engage one another, with the gap being provided at this interface. This enables a more simple and less expensive manufacture of the base member.
