Abstract
A plurality of openings are provided on the surface of a body casing which comprises a noise reduction chamber, and plate members (a reflecting plate and a sound waves introduction plate) are provided extending from an edge of each opening to the noise reduction chamber. The opening edges at which these plate members are attached have acute corners or rounded corners.
Claims7
A noise reduction device for reducing the sound pressure of noise arriving from a noise source, comprising:
- a body casing which comprises a space having a predetermined volume on an inner side thereof;
- a noise reduction chamber which is formed in the inner side space of the body casing, and which houses sound absorbing material;
- and
- a plurality of plate members extending, in the inner portion of the body casing, from the noise reduction chamber to the front surface of the body casing, wherein
- an opening, formed by one plate member and another plate member that faces the one plate member, communicates with the noise reduction chamber from the front surface of the body casing, and the cross section of an edge portion of the opening is shaped to have a corner that can generate a diffraction phenomenon for a sound wave.
A noise reduction device for reducing the sound pressure of noise arriving from a noise source, comprising:
- a body casing which comprises a space having a predetermined volume on an inner side thereof;
- a noise reduction chamber which is formed in the inner side space of the body casing, and which houses sound absorbing material;
- and
- pairs of plate members each extending, in the inner portion of the body casing, from the noise reduction chamber to the front surface of the body casing, wherein
- plate members that constitute a pair are joined together at the tip ends thereof to form a V shape and are disposed in the body casing such that the tip ends of the paired plate members face the front surface side of the body casing and the rear ends of the paired plate members face the noise reduction device side, and
- an opening, which communicates with the noise reduction chamber from the front surface of the body casing, is formed by one plate member of a pair of plate members and one plate member in an adjoining pair of plate members, and the cross sectional area of this opening gradually becomes smaller from an edge portion of the opening towards the noise reduction chamber rearwards.
