The communication booth includes a booth body, a wireless network module, a charger module, a germicidal lamp, a control module, and at least a sensor. The booth body includes a booth enclosure and a booth door configured to a lateral side of the booth enclosure. The wireless network module, the charger module, and the germicidal lamp are configured inside the booth enclosure. The control module is electrically connected to the germicidal lamp and the sensor. The communication booth may provide wireless network service through the wireless network module, and charging service through the charger module. The control module controls the germicidal lamp to disinfect and sterilize the booth body. The sensor may detect activities inside or around the booth body. The control module, based on the detection from the sensor, turns off the germicidal lamp so as to avoid harms to people.

Disclosed herewith a modular integrated building and a construction method thereof. The building comprises multiple prefabricated room units (1). A bottom of a load-bearing structure of the prefabricated room unit (1) is provided with a semi-prefabricated connecting port (2). Reinforcing bars arranged at a top of the prefabricated room unit (1) of a next floor are inserted in the connecting port (2) and thus connected with reinforcing bars arranged therein, so that the prefabricated room units (1) of two adjacent floors are connected with each other through in-situ casting concrete in the connecting port (2). A cast-in-situ concrete interlayer (3) is arranged on a top plate (11) of the prefabricated room unit (1) of a next floor, for connecting adjacent prefabricated room units (1) of a same floor together.

A mobile terminal booth with a sound masking function includes a sound absorbing panel which partitions a space as viewed from the above to provide a place where a user of a mobile terminal can have a telephone conversation; a speaker provided to emit sounds to an outside of the mobile terminal booth; and a masking sound generation unit provided to emit a masking sound through the speaker. The harsh-sounding high frequency components of the masking sound are attenuated so that the masking sound gives less uncomfortable feeling to persons surrounding the mobile terminal booth. This masking sound is generated by attenuating a high frequency component of a raw sound material including a natural sound.

An enclosed space is provided that includes a ceiling, base structure, a plurality of walls, at least one sliding door, a controller, an input air fan and an air outlet. The height and inclination of the base structure are adjustable. The base structure has a first profile; a second profile; and one or more bolts for arranging a tilting angle between the first profile and the second profile. At least one of the walls include an opening for accessing the enclosed space. The door includes two parallel glass panels. The input air fan includes an air filter and the air outlet includes a flow meter configured to provide flow information to the controller.

A method for building a soundproof enclosure (10) in the form of an independent structure with acoustic properties for isolating noise and vibration is disclosed. The soundproof enclosure (10) comprised a plurality of acoustical wall panels (12) interconnectable each to another at opposing sides for enclosing an interior space (41) of various sizes. The soundproof enclosure (10) further comprised one or more modular multilayer ceiling unit(s) (13) assembled onto the top edges of the acoustical wall panels (12) to form the enclosure. The ceiling unit (13) comprised a plurality of ceiling layers (17), each ceiling layer (17) being vertically spaced apart with one another by brackets to topographically form the multiple guided spaces necessary for air flow circulation within the enclosure (10). These guided spaces can also house multiple implements such as circulation fan, air filter and sound silencer. Sound insulating material layer(s) are interposed between the contacting surfaces of the ceiling unit (13) and the acoustical wall panels (12) and/or all around the surfaces to isolate and decouple the ceiling unit (13) from the acoustical wall panels (12) from vibrations. A sound barrier cover (16a or 79) is interposed at the openings (25) of the air passages (24) to further reduce the sound level emitted into and exiting from the enclosure. In addition, a construction method by elevating the heavy acoustical wall panels (12) and the ceiling units (13) until they fall into precise assembly location for ease of assembly of the components of the enclosure (10) and a floor base unit 11 that enabled the enclosure (10) to about easily in whole is also disclosed. Furthermore, a method to ease assembly of the enclosure (10) by use of removable heavy-duty handles (87) is disclosed.

Provided are a publicly-accessible kiosk and method for concurrently displaying content requested by a user and real-time transit information. The kiosk includes a base constructed for installation in a public setting at a geographic region, and an interface that is supportable by the base to receive user input corresponding to content requested to be presented by the kiosk. A control system including a computer processor executes computer-accessible instructions to access information stored by a non-transitory computer memory and, in response, generates an output based on the user input received. A display device is operatively connected to the control system to graphically display the content requested, presenting the content at the public setting based on the output of the control system. A programmable ticker dynamically displays real-time transit information for the geographic region where the kiosk is to be installed, and a second category of information

A wall structure with a first dampening element (A) includes at least one layer (20,20a-c) configured to form an acoustic inner surface and/or to dampen sound; a first stopping element (B) including at least one layer (30) configured to stop sound; a second dampening element (C) including at least one layer (40,40′,50) configured to form an acoustic inner surface and/or to dampen sound; and a second stopping element (D) comprising at least one layer (60) configured to stop sound; wherein the layers of the first (A) and second (C) dampening element comprise porous and/or open cell material.
