Abstract
A locking dynamic high NRC acoustic baffle and/or tile and a locking dynamic high NRC ceiling and/or wall system, that includes a single piece of material folded into locking dynamic high NRC acoustic baffles and/or tiles, using locking pieces and locking mechanisms, to quickly and easily install the locking dynamic high NRC acoustic baffle and/or tile onto construction ceiling hangers or onto walls to provide an aesthetically pleasing image, along with a reduction in unwanted noise or room acoustics.
Claims18
An acoustic tile comprising:
- a single piece of material folded along a plurality of folding scores to form a three-dimensional configuration, the three-dimensional configuration comprising a plurality of folded extensions and a plurality of outer surfaces arranged in a non-coplanar and non-orthogonal orientation relative to one another to collectively form a faceted dome;
- and
- a locking piece holding the single piece of material in the three-dimensional configuration;
- wherein inner surfaces of the folded extensions at least partially define at least one air gap having an enclosed internal volume within the three-dimensional configuration
- wherein the locking piece interacts with each of the of the folded extensions to hold the single piece of material in the three-dimensional configuration.

An acoustic tile comprising:
- a single piece of material folded along a plurality of folding scores to form a three-dimensional configuration, the three-dimensional configuration comprising a plurality of folded extensions and a back side, the back side comprising a central recess, each of the plurality of folded extensions comprising a surface defining a portion of the back side and a sidewall, the sidewalls of the plurality of folded extensions collectively forming an annular wall defining the central recess;
- and
- a locking piece positioned within the central recess and butted up against each of the sidewalls of the folded extensions to hold the single piece of material in the three-dimensional configuration.
An acoustic tile comprising:
- a single piece of material folded along a plurality of folding scores to form a three-dimensional configuration, the three-dimensional configuration comprising:
- a plurality of outer surfaces arranged in a non-coplanar and non-orthogonal orientation relative to one another to collectively form a multi-planar faceted geometry that is visible from a front of the three-dimensional configuration, the plurality of outer surfaces comprising:
- an equilateral triangle;
- an isosceles triangle extending from each edge of the equilateral triangle, each of the isosceles triangles comprising first and second distal edges;
- a first parallelogram extending from each of the first distal edges of the isosceles triangles;
- a second parallelogram extending from each of the second distal edges of the isosceles triangles;
- a back side, each of the plurality of folded extensions forming a portion of the back side;
- and
- a locking piece holding the single piece of material in the three-dimensional configuration;
- wherein an outer perimetric edge of the back side forms a closed polygonal shape.
