Variable acoustic covering system for boundaries of a room

Abstract

The invention relates to an acoustic covering system for covering at least parts of a boundary of a room, the acoustic covering system being configured to provide variable sound absorption, where the acoustic covering system comprises: a solid structure configured to be attached to the boundary, such that the solid structure and the boundary form a space; and one or more boards attached to the solid structure and configured to selectively move relative to the solid structure, such that, in an open state of the acoustic covering system, one or more respective openings are created between the one or more boards and the solid structure on at least part of a circumference of the respective one or more boards to enable sound energy to pass through and reach sound absorbing means within the space between the one or more boards and the boundary, wherein the sound energy is absorbed in the open state of the acoustic covering system to lower the reverberation time in the room when the acoustic covering system is installed.
