Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of green sound-absorbent walls.
- the invention has been developed with regard to green sound-absorbent walls made up of a plurality of panels, which can be fitted alongside or on top of one another to form sound-absorbent and sound-insulating walls which are also very long and high, for example having the function of a noise protection barrier to be placed beside very busy roads, railways, airports, etc.
- the document US 5.361.537 discloses a noise protection wall with a framework that supports a series of cassettes which contain compost in which plants of varying height are precultivated.
- the cassettes are arranged one on top of the other with their green face facing frontwards to form the facade of the noise protection wall.
- a cement slab supports the cassettes centrally.
- a similar wall, where the cassettes are slotted in uprights which support them, is illustrated in the document DE 38 12 394 .
- the aim of the present invention is to improve the green sound-absorbent walls of known type, making them thinner and therefore less bulky and more economical, without thereby sacrificing their sound-proofing and vegetation-growth performance, and without reducing their ease of installation and their reliability over time.
- the reference 1 indicates in an overall sense a first, single-faced, variant of a sound-absorbent wall according to the present invention, comprising a plurality of uprights 2 anchored to the ground in a known way, for example by means of plates 3 bolted to foundations, or similar methods.
- the uprights 2 support a plurality of green sound-absorbent panels 4.
- two adjacent uprights 2 support a plurality of panels 4 placed one above the other, which, in the example of Figures 1 and 2 , are four in number but which could also be more or less according to the desired height of the sound-absorbent wall.
- the uprights 2 have a preferably H-shaped cross section, for a convenient assembling of the panels 4, as better described below.
- FIG. 2 shows an exploded view of four panels 4 placed one above the other, and the two uprights 2 which support them with a pair of gasket strips 5 placed in between.
- Each panel 4 comprises a rear shell structure 6, preferably rectangular, with a plurality of stiffening ribs 7.
- the ribs 7 comprise eight vertical strips 7a and two horizontal strips 7b.
- the vertical strips 7a project preferably into the rear part of the panel, while the horizontal strips 7b project preferably into the front part of the rear shell 6 which faces a mesh 8 fixed to a frame 9 joined to the rear shell 6 preferably, although in a non-limiting way, by means of rivets.
- the mesh 8 is fixed preferably, but not exclusively, to the frame 9 by glue, and is preferably an electrowelded metal mesh, although the use of different types of meshes is not excluded, for example plastic meshes, woven meshes, etc.
- each panel 4 there is placed a filling formed for example by an artificial substratum formed by a mixture of volcanic dust with controlled granulometry, mixed with amenders and fertilisers, made structurally stable by the application of adhesives of natural and/or synthetic origin.
- a substratum with a fibrous matrix can be used, of the mineral wool type, mixed with amenders and fertilisers.
- the substratum allows the development of root systems of plants bedded inside it and the resulting growth of vegetation, which contributes, together with the substratum, to the sound-absorbing or sound-insulating properties of the wall 1.
- each panel 4 is shaped in such a way as to form a sort of channel 30, to house the bottom part 4b (see Figure 6 ) of a panel 4 above, thus making the panels easily stackable one on top of the other, with a good hold widthways between one upright 2 and the other.
- the sound-absorbent wall 1 can be dual-faced and can comprise a double-fronted panel 14.
- two middle shells 16 are shaped substantially like the rear shell 6 of the wall described above, but form, coupled with each other, a compost containment tank on both sides of the double-fronted panel 14.
- Two opposed frames 19 close the middle shell 16 from both sides, each one holding a mesh 18 that is completely the same as the mesh 8 described previously in relation to the panel 4 with only one green face. The space enclosed between the two opposed frames is conveniently used for the passage of pipes for the irrigation system.
- the sides of the panels 4 (like those of the panels 14 in the dual-faced variant of the green sound-absorbent wall 1) slide in between the wings of the H profile of the uprights 2.
- the panels 4 (or the dual-faced panel variants 14) are shaped in such a way as to present a duct 20 which can be used, if required, to house the pipes of an irrigation system, or lighting cables, etc.
- the shaping of the single-faced panels 4 or the dual-faced panels 14 is particularly compact, and results in obtaining a green sound-absorbent wall 1 that is particularly thin and light, yet able to withstand stresses, for example due to the wind.
- a green sound-absorbent wall according to the present invention is particularly valued for carrying out works of notable length and height, for example for the protection from noise of vast stretches of roads or railways.
- a particular advantageous feature is the realisation of single-faced panels 4 (or where necessary dual-faced panels 14) with a rear shell 6 (or middle shells 16) made of a material or shaped in such a way as to reduce the overheating of the root system of the plants.
- the rear shell 6 (or middle shell 16) can be a closed-bottom structure, as illustrated in the drawings and described above, and in that case it is preferably produced from fibreglass or similar materials.
- the rear shell 6 (or middle shell 16) can also be made of metal, but in that case preferably having present an open structure, for example with a series of holes, to encourage airing of the substratum.
