Abstract

The apparatus comprises spheres or lenses having a crescent shape each containing a vacuum. The spheres or lenses may be formed from glass, or preferably plastic. The spheres may be approximately 2.5cm across and are preferably moulded in random or staggered positions within a sheet of plastics material. The plastics material is preferably very soft so that it comprises a flexible sheet. Multiple sheets may be laminated together to provide a thicker, more completely covered panel or slab. In use the panels may be used in buildings (especially in floors), or vehicles (especially around engine bays) to deaden noise.

Description

DESCRIPTION: A new system to provide sound proofing material which
could be used on almost any product from the building industry-to aircraft, boats, cars etc. The system relies on the principle that sound cannot traverse a vacuum. With this in mind the structure is as follows.
1 Vacuum sections: These are relatively small spheres or concave shapes in plastic or glass within which is a vacuum.
These are then mounted in a very soft pliable plastic which can then be formed into sheets which may then be "cut to shape" Either the spheres or convex vacuums would be mounted in the plastic sheet such that all possible gaps are covered thorery reducing the chance of any sound passing thru. rfl I i3U
Details: The sound deadmng is provided principally by the "spheres"/ convex shapes each shape/convex shape is manufactured from glass or preferably plastic. In the manufacturing process-all the air is removed from them thus creating a vacuum. (The convex shapes are similar to two contact lenses being "welded" together, the advantage of both is structural integrity. Once formed these devices (approx 1" in diameter) are moulded into a soft plastic laminated sheet arranged so that they are staggored so that every millimetre of the sheet is covered by these devices, it may require up to 3/4 laminations. The sheet may then be cut with a conventional saw and guard into place. For example on floors just beneath carpets, in engine bays on boats and cars, around the interior of aircraft fuselages, in fact any where where noise is an issue. They could even be built into buildings between internal and external walls, and if made small enough, hung as curtains within fabric. r

Claims (1)

  1. CLAIM: Sound proofing system by vacuum The concept of this idea is that
    sound cannot travel through a vacuum, therefore, if a vacuum could be developed around an object, room, building, car/boat/aircraft engine compartment, sound proofing would be complete. Obviously it would be impossible to generate a complete vacuum around something-so the alternative idea is to generate a number of mini vacuums these "mini vacuums" would then be placed or moulded into thick soft plastic sheets which could then be cut to shape as required. In addition to plastic sheets-which would be of almost any size, smaller strips for example 4" across by 10' long could be manufactured which would then be used in corners or to join two or more sheets together etc r tNDEX&
