TITRE
Structure rnodulairc; insonorisante DOMAINE DE L'INVENTION
La présente invention concerne une structure modulaire insonorisante comprenant des modules flottants. La structure comporte des propriétés insonorisantes aux bruits d'impac;t particulièrement avantageuses par rapport aux systèmes d'insonorisation conventionnels. La laine de roche, le caoutchouc recyclé et le liège sont utilisés préférentiellement comune matériau insonorisant.
lo ART ANTÉRIEUR
La transmission des sons est un problème omniprésent dans la construction d'immeubles résidentiels et commerciaux. Bien que plusieurs alternatives existent pour contrer la transmission de sons tels que ceux générés par la voix, un radio, une télévision etc., il en est tout autrement pour les bruits d'impact tels que ceux générés par la marche, un objet qui tombe etc. La plupart des systèmes ou produits insonorisants présentement disponibles sur le marché comportent plusieurs limitations et ne permettent pas de régler simultanément tous les problèmes causés par la transmission des sons, et plus spécialement les bruits d'impact.
Dans le cas des matériaux contrôlant les bruits d'impact, les résultats obtenus sont généralement mf:diocres, i.e., de l'ordre de 40-45 en unité de "field impact insulation class" (FIIC), les mal:ériaux sont très dispendieux, et leur installation nécessite beaucoup de temps, ce qui résu'.lte en des coûts très importants avec des bénéfices souvent limités.

Modular structure; soundproof FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a sound absorbing modular structure including floating modules. The structure has properties soundproof impact noise; t particularly advantageous compared to systems conventional soundproofing. Rock wool, recycled rubber and cork are preferentially used as sound-absorbing material.
lo PRIOR ART
Sound transmission is a pervasive problem in construction residential and commercial buildings. Although several alternatives exist for counter the transmission of sounds such as those generated by the voice, a radio, a television etc., it is quite different for impact noises such as those generated by walking, a falling object etc. Most soundproofing systems or products presently available on the market have several limitations and do not allow no settle simultaneously all the problems caused by sound transmission, and more especially impact noise.
In the case of materials controlling impact noise, the results obtained are generally mf: diocres, ie, of the order of 40-45 in units of "field impact insulation class "(FIIC), the ailments are very expensive, and their installation requires a lot of time, which results in very high costs with profits often limited.

-2-La laine de roche, qui est un dérivé de roche de basalte provenant de la lave des volcan, est un produit bien connu qui est utilisé comme isolant thermique pour des conduits, bouilloires ou autres équipements mécaniques fonctionnant à haute température.
Ce matériau est également bien connu comme insonorisant, mais requiert un mode d'installation spéciale compte tenu de la rigidité plutôt mitigée des panneaux qui en sont fabriqués.
Il existe donc on besoin important pour un produit insonorisant, particulièrement pour les bruits d'impact, peu coûteux et d'installation rapide et facile.
lo DANS LES DESSINS
La Figure 1 illustre un mode de réalisation préférentiel de la présente invention, à
savoir un panneau modulaire.
15 DESCRIPTION DÉ;TAILL~E DE L'INVENTION
La présemte invention permet de contourner les problèmes présents dans les différents matériaux et systè .rues d'insonorisation actuels, et plus particulièrement en ce qui concerne les bn.~its d'impact. En effet, une structure modulaire comprenant des panneaux flottants, c'est-à-dire, sans attache, prêt pour la pose et d'installation facile sur 2o place, comprenant préférentiellement de la laine de roche comme matériau insonorisant, permet d'obtenir d'excellentes performances d'insonorisation, tout en réduisant significativement les coûts d'installation. Des exemples de matériaux de support propices à la présente invention incluent un panneau de contre-plaqué, de copeaux orientés (oriented strand board), de particules agglomérées, de gypse, de papier recyclé tel que -2-Rock wool, which is a derivative of basalt rock from lava of volcano, is a well known product that is used as a thermal insulator for of ducts, kettles or other mechanical equipment operating at high temperature.
This material is also well known as soundproofing, but requires a mode special installation given the rather mixed rigidity of the panels who are manufactured.
There is therefore an important need for a soundproofing product, especially for inexpensive impact and installation noise quick and easy.
lo IN THE DRAWINGS
Figure 1 illustrates a preferred embodiment of this invention, to know a modular panel.

The present invention overcomes the problems present in the different current soundproofing materials and systems, and more particularly in this which concerns impact bn. ~ its. Indeed, a modular structure including floating panels, that is to say, without fastening, ready for installation and easy installation on 2nd place, preferably comprising rock wool as material soundproof, provides excellent soundproofing performance, while reducing significantly the installation costs. Examples of materials from support auspicious to the present invention include a plywood panel, chips oriented (oriented strand board), agglomerated particles, gypsum, paper recycled as

-3-HomasoteTM ou FiberockTM, de béton léger tel que UnipanTM, ou encore une feuille de métal ou d'alliage quelconque.
Un autre matériau insonorisant d'intérêt est le caoutchouc usagé. Les vieux s pneus représentent me sourd; avantageuse de ce matériau puisque peu dispendieux et facilement accessibles. Ce matériau possède en outre une rigidité supérieure par rapport à
la laine de roche.
En se référant à la Figure 1, qui représente un module ou panneau ayant une 1 o structure préférentielle, une couche d'un matériau insonorisant C est collée sur un panneau d'un matériau de support B. Le matériau insonorisant recouvre la totalité de la surface du panneau B. Par la suite, un second panneau d'un matériau de support A, identique ou différent au matériau B, est f ixé sur le panneau du matériau B de façon à
avoir une co~guration décalée telle qu'illustrée à la Figure 1, de sorte qu'un assemblage ou 1 s structure de panneaux: peut être aisément installé directement sur la surface à insonoriser par insertion d'un parmeau donné dans le panneau adjacent au sol. Cette configuration permet ainsi de virtuellement: éliminer tout joint qui pourrait causer des infiltrations indésirables de son.
z o La densité et/ou l'épaisseur de la couche insonorisante peut être ajustée en fonction des besoins d'insonorisation. Typiquement, dans le cas de la laine de roche, la densité varie préférentiellement entre 1 et 12 livres au pied cube, alors que l'épaisseur peut jouer entre 1 mm et 60 mm, dépendant de la densité. Un tel panneau permet d'obtenir une résistance aux bruits d.'impact FIIC d'au moins 50, et allant même jusqu'à 70, alors que les 2 s matériaux et systèmes d'insonorisation conventionnels atteignent à peine 45. Toute ' -4-personne du métier sera en mesure de déterminer aisément ces caractéristiques selon l'utilisation projetée.
La structure de la présente invention peut être utilisée autant pour la s construction d'édifice;s neufs que pour la rénovation de bâtiments déjà
existants. De part sa nature flottante, donc facile d'installation, de même que ses propriétés insonorisantes accrues, particulièrement pour les bruits d'impact, le module utilisé
représente un matériau de choix pom la construction résidentielle et commerciale.
1 o Bien que la présente invention ait été décrite à l'aide de mises en oeuvre spécifiques, il est entendu que plusieurs variations et modifications peuvent se greffer aux dites mises en oeuvre, et la présente demande vise à couvrir de telles modifications, usages ou adaptations de la présente invention suivant, en général, les principes de l'invention et incluant: toute variation de la présente description qui deviendra connue ou 15 conventionnelle dans le champ d'activité dans lequel se retrouve la présente invention, et qui peut s'appliquer aux élémewts essentiels mentionnés ci-haut, en accord avec la portée des revendications suivantes. -3-HomasoteTM or FiberockTM, lightweight concrete such as UnipanTM, or even a sheet any metal or alloy.
Another sound-absorbing material of interest is used rubber. Old s tires represent me deaf; advantageous of this material since few expensive and easily accessible. This material also has superior rigidity compared to rock wool.
Referring to Figure 1, which represents a module or panel having a 1 o preferred structure, a layer of sound-absorbing material C is pasted on a panel a support material B. The soundproofing material covers all of the surface of the panel B. Subsequently, a second panel of support material A, identical or different to material B, is attached to the panel of material B so that have a co ~ offset guration as illustrated in Figure 1, so that a assembly or 1 s panel structure: can be easily installed directly on the soundproof surface by inserting a given panel in the panel adjacent to the ground. This configuration allows you to virtually: eliminate any joint that could cause infiltrations unwanted sound.
zo The density and / or thickness of the soundproofing layer can be adjusted in according to soundproofing needs. Typically, in the case of wool rock, the density preferentially varies between 1 and 12 pounds per cubic foot, while the thickness can play between 1 mm and 60 mm, depending on the density. Such a panel allows to get a resistance to FIIC impact noise of at least 50, and even up to 70, while the 2 s conventional soundproofing materials and systems barely reach 45. Any '-4-skilled person will be able to easily determine these characteristics according to the intended use.
The structure of the present invention can be used for both s building construction; s new only for the renovation of buildings already existing. Departure its floating nature, therefore easy to install, as well as its properties soundproof increased, particularly for impact noise, the module used represents a material of choice for residential and commercial construction.
1 o Although the present invention has been described using implementations specific, it is understood that several variations and modifications may piggyback on said implementations, and the present application aims to cover such modifications, uses or adaptations of the present invention according, in general, to principles of the invention and including: any variation of this description which will become known or 15 conventional in the field of activity in which the present invention, and which can apply to the essential elements mentioned above, in agreement with the scope of the following claims.
