(Cl. SiS-40) (i Claims.
This invention relates to sound-absorbing constructions and particularly to a sound-absorbing unit which may be used to line the ceiling of a room whose sound reverberation time or noise level is to be reduced.
The object of this invention is to provide a low cost sound-absorbing unit or panel which has desirable acoustical characteristics in that it will absorb sounds within the ordinary audible frequency rangey with greater uniformity than is obtainable by means of presently available materials. Further objects' include the production of an extremely light and simple construction which may be manufactured with uniformity and which may conveniently be handled and installed Without excessive breakage and consequent waste.
I A further object is to provide an efficient soundabsorbing unit equipped with air-distribu-ting means whereby the acoustical construction may also be utilized to function as an air distributor for a Ventilating system for the room acoustically treated.
The invention consists essentially of a shallow box-like foundation structure of suitable rigid sheet material containing a sound-absorbing medium, said sound-absorbing medium being covered by a double diaphragm which serves as one of the broad sides of the box-like structure in place of the rigid material. A collection of such units is arranged on the ceiling ofthe room with the double diaphragm exposed to the sound waves to be attenuated. The air-distributing acoustical units are provided with a number of openings adapted to permit predetermined quantities fo air to pass into the room through the partition formed by a collectionof these units from the plenum chamber between the wall or ceiling and said partition,
The invention is disclosed in detail in the following description with the aid of the drawing, in which l Fig. 1 is a fragmentary plan View of the soundabsorbing unit;
Fig. 2 is a sectional View of said unit;
Fig. 3 is a perspective view of an air-distributing acoustical unit;
Fig. 4 is a sectional view taken on line 4-4 of Fig. 3 shown with a preferred supporting means; and
Fig'. 5 is a sectional view taken on line 5-5 of Fig. 3 and also shown with the preferred supporting means.
The basic unit shown in Figs. 1 and 2 s comcardboard or chipboard substantially filled with a sound-absorbing material 2 and a double diaphragm 3, 4 which serves to close the box-like foundation structure and thus retain sound-absorbing material 2 .within it. The foundation structure l may conveniently and economically be formed from a unitary sheet of material and bent to form side walls 5 and 6, the marginal zones being incompletely inwardly retroverted to provide bracing members 'l and 8. A rigid structure is then completed by cementing the edges of the sheet material to the broad backing member, as at 9 and l0. Shredded newsprint may be employed as the sound-absorbing material 2, or other well-known materials of this ty'pe may be used, such as exfoliated vermiculite, balsam wool, cotton linters or other vegetable fibers. Membranes 3 and 4 are preferably air pervious and should be flexible and capable of mutually independent vibration. Sheet material such as strong, than lter paper or artificially perforated creped or plain kraft paper is suitable for this purpose although a thin, air-impervious material, such as tissue paper, maybe used. The membranes forming the double diaphragm 3, 4 are sound transparent whether constructed from the former or the latter-class of materials. Sound transparent" as used herein, is taken to designate the property of a given-material to transmit a substantial proportion "of sound waves incident upon one surface thereof regardless of whether such transmission takes place by direct passage of the sound Waves through apertures therein or by vibration of the material itself.'
The diaphragm membranes 3 and 4 may be mounted on' the foundation structure after the sound-absorbing material has been arranged in it by cementing or otherwise fastening the edges to the sides thereof. -These membranes are in loose contact with each other and are not stretched tautly in mounting but are loosely vibratile. All of the materials. from which the unit is made are preferably pretreated in a Wellknown manner to render them ameproof or rireproof. The optimum thickness of the units from the acoustical standpoint /is about 11/2 inches. 'The other dimensions are determined partly by considerations of shipping convenience. Also, they should not be too large in at least one dimension as too great a span would result in excessive sagging of the diaphragm facing. A convenient size is about 12 x 24 inches. The units are very light in weight and may be readily mounted by cementing or otherwise aflixing the posed of a box-like foundation I of thin,v hard backing element of the foundation structure to the surface of the ceiling or the units may be cemented to suitably supported furring strips.
Sound waves impinging upon the exposed diaphragm facing 3, 4 are substantially absorbed by the combined operation of the sound-absorbing material 2 and the double diaphragm 3, 4.
The sound-absorbing material within the struc` mechanics of the cooperation between the sound-.
. proximately the position shown in Figs. ,4 and 5 absorbing material andthe double diaphragm 3, 4
4 in attenuating sound waves are not definitely known.
' The air-distributing sound-absorbing unit shown in Figs. 3-5 is of fundamentally the same construction as that above described. The foundation structure Il is'provided with a series of openings I2 in the back portion thereof. A
second set of openings I3 is provided along the" units are arranged below the ceiling of a room to be acoustically treated and ventilated in spaced relation thereto and abutting each other in the form of a partition forming a plenum chamber between it and the ceiling into which Ventilating air is continuously introduced, the Ventilating' air is caused to pass through openings I2 and I3 and into the room in quantities determined by the amount of open area provided by the openings. It will be seen that in this way. the air may be caused to enter the room over a large area and without drafts. `This type of air-distributing arrangement is disclosed in Norris Patent No. 2,172,771, datediSeptember 12, 1939.
A preferred supporting apparatus is shown in Figs. 4 and 5. in the above referred to patent application as well as in Norris Patent No. 1,726,500, dated Algust 2, 1929. tacle I8 of perforated sheet metal or equivalent material is provided to receive a sound-absorbing joint between lthe sound-absorbing unit and the A pan or shallow flanged recep` This apparatus is also disclosed so that the lower diaphragm will be spaced above the exposed surface ofthe supporting pans. This is desirable from the standpoint of appearance of the assembled structure and also to prevent closing of the perforations in the sheet metal when the latter is painted. When the unit is used `as an air distributor as well as an acoustical treatment, the space between the diaphragm facing and the perforated sheet metal permits an expansion of the air entering it through openings I3 and thus permits the Ventilating air to enter the room through substantially all of the perforations on this exposed surface of the perforated metal supporting pan. It is thus seen that the perforated metal itself forms a part of the air-distributing apparatus.
The economic advantages f the invention are obvious. The improved acoustical characteristics whereby absorption of sound in the 20G-500 cycle range is greatly increased over that obtainable by means of a sound-absorbing material alone `are highly desirable. The relatively uniform absorption achieved by the unit throughout the ordinarily troublesome frequency range (256- 2048 cycles per second) together with low manuf* facturing cost make the construction commercially important.
