Definitions
- the present invention relates to the sector of multilayer metallic sheets with acoustic insulation properties.
- Acoustic pollution presents problems that involve numerous industries, such as: construction (roofs and walls) , white goods (clothes washers, dishwashers) , household goods (aspirating hoods, appliances) , industrial goods (road and railway barriers, engines and compressors) , and transportation (land, sea, air) .
- the automotive industry is particularly sensitive to acoustic pollution.
- the structural vibrations of engine driven vehicles are generated by different sources such as: terrain irregularities, oscillations of the engine, transmission, exhaust system masses.
- the exhaust system which has an elongated and irregular shape and is positioned underneath the vehicle frame, because of the vibrations transmitted by the engine, in turn acts as a transmitter of vibrations to the passenger compartment, irradiating vibrations and hence noise and thus causing considerable annoyance.
- vibrations, and hence noisiness are particularly severe at low speeds, as are usual in city traffic, situation in which the structure of the exhaust system if highly sensitive to noise-generating stresses.
- the exhaust system is subjected to vibrations with a resonance frequency that oscillates between 12 and 20 Hz.
- the patent US 5.530.213 discloses an exhaust system made of metallic material coated with a material having lesser density than the metallic material and exhibiting an irregular surface .
- the Japanese patent JP03160109 discloses a metallic exhaust system obtained by coupling steel and aluminium with glass or carbon fibre material .
- the patent US 3.337.939 discloses an exhaust system obtained by means of an inner layer of stainless steel and an outer layer of aluminium coated with carbon steel, the two layers being separated by a third carbonisable adhesive material, like epoxy resin, such as to reduce noise transmission.
- the patent 4.382.487 teaches an exhaust system with an, inner portion made of enamelled steel whereon are fastened structural elements for noise abatement purposes .
- the present invention allows to meet this requirement, offering also the advantage of providing a multilayer metallic sheet with high formability and weldability, and reduced manufacturing costs.
- the subject of the present invention is a multilayer metallic sheet with acoustic insulation properties, comprising a first metallic layer, a second metallic layer and a third metallic layer interposed between said first and second layer, and in which said third layer is thermally constrained in its relative motion with respect to said first and second layer by means of local re- crystallisation. This constraint, obtained thermally, is such as to prevent the relative motion of each metallic layer with respect to the other.
- the first and second metallic layers are selected among: stainless steel, carbon steel, Titanium super-alloys, Nickel super-alloys, Aluminium super-alloys.
- the third layer is selected among: aluminium and its alloys, copper and its alloys, nickels and its alloys, titanium and its alloys.
- the first and second layer have a wall that faces the third layer with a roughness exceeding 5 ⁇ m. Measurements for assessing roughness, as is well known, are performed by means of an appropriate profilometer and normally the value provided is the one obtained by calculating the mean of the Ra measurements.
- Ra is the mean of the absolute values of all distances of the real profile R from the centreline in the measuring length.
- the ratio between the surface area that is thermally constrained, by means of local re-crystallisation, and area that is free in the relative motion of the third metallic layer with respect to the first and second metallic layer ranges between 1 and 5%, preferably between 2.5 and 3.5%.
- the thermal constraint is obtained by means of non- through welding, for instance of the laser or electrical resistance type.
- the ratio between the thickness of the first layer and the thickness of the third layer ranges between 1 and 3.
- the ratio between the thickness of the second layer and the thickness of the third layer ranges between 1 and 3.
- the welded multilayer metallic sheet is then subjected to such a heat treatment as to allow to achieve a value of hardness of between 120 and 200 HV.
- the multilayer metallic sheet is subjected to a flattening or heat-flattening operation, such as to allow obtaining an elongation value of less than 5%.
- An acoustically insulating metallic sheet is obtained, destined to exhaust systems for motor vehicles that comprises a first outer layer made of austenitic stainless steel with a thickness of 0.5 mm, a second outer layer made of ferrous stainless steel with a thickness of 0.3 mm and a third layer interposed between the first two, made of nickel with a thickness of 0.1 mm.
- the intermediate layer of Nickel particularly suitable for high temperatures, was thermally constrained to the other two layers by means of non-through welding of the ER (electrical resistance) type.
- the metallic layers used, obtained from a cold-rolling line, after the welding operation were subjected to a heat treatment in order to obtain an average hardness value of 170 HV.
- An acoustically insulating metallic sheet is obtained, destined to exhaust systems for motor vehicles, comprising a first outer layer made of carbon steel with a thickness of 0.6 mm, a second outer layer made of ferrous stainless steel with a thickness of 0.2 mm and a third layer interposed between the first two, made of aluminium with a thickness of 0.1 mm.
- the intermediate aluminium layer was thermally constrained to the other two layers by means of non- through laser welding.
- the metallic layers used, obtained from a cold annealing line, after the welding operation were subjected to a heat treatment to obtain an average hardness value of 150 HV.
