Abstract
A sound absorber comprises a bottom portion and a structure portion joined to the bottom portion and closed off from outside, the structure portion having chamber walls forming hollow chambers, the hollow chambers being formed like small boxes or cups. Between the bottom portion and the structure portion, in the region of the hollow chambers, welds are formed between parts of the chamber walls of the structure portion and the bottom portion such that the chamber walls are in part welded to the bottom portion. In part the chamber walls project towards the bottom portion without being welded thereto such that an air gap is formed between an end of these chamber walls and the bottom portion, the hollow chambers forming a common air space enclosed between the structure portion and the bottom portion.
Claims16
A sound absorber comprising:
- a bottom portion;
- a structure portion joined at an edge to said bottom portion and closed off from the outside, said structure portion having chamber walls forming hollow chambers, said hollow chambers being formed like small boxes or cups;
- and
- wherein spaced from said edge, said chamber walls in a first part thereof are welded to said bottom portion, and in a second part thereof project towards said bottom portion such that an air gap is formed between an end of said second part of said chamber walls and said bottom portion, said hollow chambers belonging to a common air space enclosed between the structure portion and the bottom portion.
A sound absorber comprising:
- a bottom portion;
- a structure portion joined to said bottom portion at an edge, said structure portion having chamber walls forming a plurality of hollow chambers having box or cup shape;
- wherein, spaced from said edge, a chamber wall of respective of said hollow chambers projects toward and has an end spaced from said bottom portion such that an air gap is formed between said end and said bottom portion, and other of said chamber walls of said hollow chambers extend towards and are connected to said bottom portion;
- and
- wherein said air gap between said end and said bottom portion communicates with other respective of said air gaps of respective of said hollow chambers, so as to form a common air space enclosed between the structure portion and the bottom portion.
