A high frequency attenuating device for an air flow induction system of a vehicle employing a thermoformed fibrous mat of any shape that fits robustly inside the duct. The dissipative nature of the fibrous mat helps in achieving broadband attenuation in the high frequency regime. The ability to manufacture the fibrous mat into any shape helps with restriction, targets different attenuation bands, and makes it more feasible to manufacture. Hybrid solutions are possible when combined with low frequency perforated silencers or high frequency QWT arrays injection molded onto them.

Provided is a silencing tubular structure body that has high strength and can be disposed in a narrow space. A tubular member including a tubular portion having a tubular shape, and a frame portion having at least a part formed integrally with an inner peripheral surface side of the tubular portion; and a lid member that is exchangeably disposed on an opening surface of the frame portion of the tubular member are included, in which the frame portion and the lid member form a resonant silencing structure.

An exhaust air conduit for a pneumatically powered pump, in particular, from a coating agent pump in a painting plant, is provided. The conduit includes an inlet for receiving the exhaust air from the pump, an outlet for discharging the exhaust air, and an exhaust air channel in which the exhaust air flows from the inlet to the outlet of the exhaust air conduit, and a housing member in which the exhaust air channel extends. A first thermal insulation element is provided in the region of a direction change of the exhaust air channel, in order to prevent an accumulation of the exhaust air directly at the inner wall of the exhaust air channel and thereby to lessen the cooling of the housing member.

A stacked cavity structure for arrangement on a mounting surface of a duct includes a support spine configured to be arranged on the mounting surface and extending into the duct with a longitudinal axis defining a longitudinal orientation. The stacked cavity structure includes a plurality of arms extending from the support spine and at least partially forming a plurality of overlapping cavities relative to the longitudinal orientation. Each of the plurality of arms includes at least a proximal first arm segment and a distal first arm segment.

A method for manufacturing a sound attenuation apparatus includes generating a three-dimensional digital model of the sound attenuation apparatus and manufacturing the sound attenuation apparatus based on the model using an additive manufacturing technique. The model includes a body with an interior extending between a bottom surface and a top surface; and a stacked cavity structure having a structure inlet; a passage extending from the structure inlet into the interior to a base surface within the interior of the body; a support spine formed within the interior; and a plurality of arms extending from the support spine and at least partially forming a plurality of overlapping cavities with cavity inlets fluidly coupled to the passage. Each of the plurality of arms include a proximal first arm segment extending from the support spine and a first distal arm segment oriented at an angle relative to the proximal first arm segment.

A sound attenuation apparatus includes a body and a stacked cavity structure. The structure includes a structure inlet formed in the top surface of the body; a passage extending from the structure inlet into the interior of the body to a base surface within the body; a first cavity with a first cavity inlet fluidly coupled to the passage and being formed by a first arm, a first side wall within the interior of the body, and the base surface; and a second cavity with a second cavity inlet fluidly coupled to the passage and being formed by a second arm, the first side wall, and the first arm. Each of the first and second arms extends from the first side wall and includes at least two arm segments oriented at different angles relative to the first side wall longitudinal axis.

Provided is a flow modification component for use with a muffler, which can be a Helmholtz resonator muffler, a side branch muffler, or a Y-pipe. The flow modification component includes a porous plate adapted for incorporation into a passage to a sound muffling portion connected to a through passage pipe of the muffler or Y-pipe. One or more openings are formed on the porous plate to allow low frequency acoustic waves to pass through into the passage to the sound muffling portion while reducing large-scale turbulent eddies that produce undesirable resonant tones within the aperture tube to small-scale turbulent eddies. The openings having sufficient porosity such that the resulting sound frequency is determined by size, shape, number, and spacing of the openings. The flow modification component can also include a dissipative material component in an internal port passage of the muffler to further reduce resonant tones.

A pipe clip includes a metal annular clip body having at least two opposing radial flanges defining an opening adapted to arrange the pipe clip around a pipe. The clip body has at one of the radial flanges a female fastening. The pipe clip includes a tightening screw having a head and a shank. The shank is provided with a male thread adapted to cooperate with the female fastening. The head engages the other of the flanges so as to tighten the flanges towards each other and tighten the pipe clip around the pipe. The pipe clip has a vibration insulating lining provided on the inner side of the clip body. A torque limiting cap is arranged on the screw head of the tightening screw. The torque limiting cap includes at least one torque transferring feature that couples the cap to the screw head in a rotational direction.

This technology provides a splitter comprising: a first sound absorber; a second sound absorber; a perforated plate member interposed between the first sound absorber and the second sound absorber; and an outer frame surrounding the first sound absorber, the second sound absorber and the perforated plate member; and a sound attenuator comprising: a protective case; a plurality of splitters according to above embodiment formed in the protective case and spaced from each other; and an air passage formed among the plurality of splitters.

A sound suppression apparatus for installation inside a gas transport duct is provided. The sound suppression apparatus comprises a resistive sound-absorbing element (110) and a housing providing a reactive sound-attenuating element (130) communicating with a surrounding of the apparatus via opening in an outer surface of the housing. An outer surface of the sound suppression apparatus comprises an outer surface of the resistive sound-absorbing element and the outer surface of the housing. A gas transport duct comprising the sound suppression apparatus is also provided.
