Abstract
An acoustic attenuating liner has a non-metallic honeycomb core bonded on a backsheet. A corrosion-insulated perforated sheet is bonded to the honeycomb core by adhesive between the perforated sheet and the core. The mesh is woven to a plurality of different determined weave patterns from material on and affixed to the perforated sheet, whereby the mesh has a plurality of different resistances. The mesh is aligned with the perforated sheet and is bonded to the perforated sheet by additional adhesive between the mesh and the perforated sheet, thereby providing a segmented liner with a plurality of facesheet resistances.
Claims20
A segmented resistance acoustic attenuating liner, comprising
- a back sheet;
- a honeycomb core on said backsheet and bonded thereto;
- a perforated sheet on said honeycomb core bonded to said core;
- and
- a mesh woven to a plurality of different determined weave patterns from material on and affixed to said perforated sheet, whereby said mesh comprises wire having a plurality of different numbers of wires per unit length, thereby providing a plurality of different resistances, said perforated sheet being reticulated and said mesh being aligned with said perforated sheet and bonded to said perforated sheet, thereby providing a segmented liner with a plurality of facesheet resistances.
A segmented resistance acoustic attenuating liner, comprising
- a backsheet;
- a honeycomb core on and affixed to said backsheet and bonded thereto;
- a perforated sheet on said honeycomb core;
- adhesive between said perforated sheet and said core for bonding said perforated sheet to said core;
- a mesh woven to a plurality of different determined weave patterns from material on and affixed to said perforated sheet, whereby said mesh comprises wire having a plurality of different numbers of wires per unit length, thereby providing a plurality of different resistances, said perforated sheet being reticulated and said mesh being aligned with said perforated sheet;
- and
- additional adhesive between said mesh and said perforated sheet for bonding said mesh to said perforated sheet, thereby providing a segmented liner with a plurality of facesheet resistances.
A segmented resistance acoustic attentuating liner, comprising
- a backsheet;
- a corrosion-resistant honeycomb core on said backsheet and bonded thereto;
- a corrosion-insulated perforated sheet on said honeycomb core;
- adhesive between said perforated sheet and said core for bonding perforated sheet to said core;
- a mesh woven to a plurality of different determined weave patterns from corrosion-resistant metal on said perforated sheet, whereby said mesh comprises stainless steel wire having a plurality of different numbers of wires per unit length, thereby producing a plurality of different resistances, said perforated sheet being reticulated and said mesh being aligned with said perforated sheet;
- and
- additional adhesive between said mesh and said perforated sheet for bonding said mesh to said perforated sheet, said additional adhesive having predetermined characteristics including a minimum viscosity of 1000 poises during curing and a predetermined thickness, thereby providing a segmented liner with a plurality of facesheet resistances.
