A silent hair dryer and a silencer for a hair dryer includes at least one casing with an inlet end and an outlet end and enclosing at least one turbine sucking in air via at least one admission orifice upstream of the turbine and expelling it downstream via at least one outlet orifice. The silent hair dryer includes at least one chamber upstream of the admission orifice and an inlet orifice for aspiration of air upstream of the chamber; the diameter of the chamber being greater than the diameter of the admission orifice and the diameter of the inlet orifice, the length and the diameter of the chamber being of such a size so as to define a volume turned as a function of the sound frequencies to be attenuated by the silencer.
A silencer (1) for an appliance comprising at least one casing (30) comprising an inlet end (33), an outlet end (31) and at least one motor (M) for rotatably driving at least one turbine (T) for sucking in air via at least one admission orifice (330) at the level of the inlet end (33) upstream of the turbine (T) having a diameter (Da) and expelling said air downstream of the turbine via at least one outlet orifice (310) at the level of the outlet end (31), characterised in that said silencer comprises at least one chamber (10) mounted substantially tightly upstream of the admission orifice (330) and having an inlet orifice (110) having a diameter (De) for aspiration of air upstream of the chamber (10), said chamber having a diameter (Dc) being greater than the diameter (Da) of the admission orifice (330) and the diameter (De) of the inlet orifice (110), the chamber having a length (L) and the diameter (Dc) being of such a size so as to define a volume tuned as a function of the sound frequencies to be attenuated by the silencer (1).
