Abstract
An absorbent covering (1) has high damping power, secured on a structure (2) and includes a dissipater mesh made up of a plurality of dissipating elements (3) and of nodes (4) each having its bottom end (4′) secured on the structure (2). In remarkable manner, the bottom ends (4′) of the nodes (4) project from the dissipating elements (3) so as to leave an empty space (5) between the dissipating elements (3) and the structure (2), the absorbent covering (1) including main absorbent elements (6) arranged in the empty space (5), each of the main absorbent elements (6) being secured firstly to a bottom face (3′) of a dissipating element (3) and secondly to the structure (2).
Claims22
An absorbent covering having high damping power, secured on a structure and comprising a dissipater mesh made up of a plurality of dissipating elements and of nodes each having its bottom end secured on said structure wherein said bottom ends of said nodes project from said dissipating elements so as to leave an empty space between the dissipating elements and said structure, said absorbent covering including main absorbent elements arranged in said empty space, each of said main absorbent elements being secured firstly to a bottom face of a said dissipating element and secondly to said structure, the dissipating elements cooperate to form laterally spaced empty spaces therebetween, each laterally spaced empty space not being filled with material.
An absorbent covering having high damping power, secured on a structure and comprising a dissipater mesh made up of a plurality of dissipating elements and of nodes each having its bottom end secured on said structure wherein said bottom ends of said nodes project from said dissipating elements so as to leave an empty space between each of the dissipating elements and said structure, said absorbent covering including a plurality of main absorbent elements, each of said main absorbent element being arranged in said empty space secured firstly to a bottom face of a respective one of said dissipating elements and secondly to said structure, said absorbent covering including secondary absorbent elements, each secondary absorbent element being arranged on top of one of said dissipating element so as to cover said dissipating element over the length of said dissipating element.
An absorbent covering having high damping power, secured on a structure and comprising a dissipater mesh made up of a plurality of dissipating elements and of nodes each having its bottom end secured on said structure wherein said bottom ends of said nodes project from said dissipating elements so as to leave an empty space between the dissipating elements and said structure, said absorbent covering including main absorbent elements arranged in said empty space, each of said main absorbent elements being secured firstly to a bottom face of a said dissipating element and secondly to said structure, wherein said dissipating elements and said main absorbent elements are elliptical in shape, each dissipating element covering a main absorbent element over its entire length.
