133results about How to "Reduce sound pressure" patented technology

An acoustic resonance device is installed in a compartment of a vehicle so as to reduce a low-frequency sound pressure (or noise) dependent upon a natural vibration. Specifically, an acoustic resonance device is a panel/diaphragm resonator, a resonance pipe, or a Helmholtz resonator, the inner space of which communicates with the compartment via an opening. The acoustic resonance device is positioned in proximity to an antinode of sound pressure owing to a natural vibration occurring in a driver/passenger space inside the compartment. Alternatively, the acoustic resonance device increases a particle velocity at a specific natural frequency or decreases sound pressure at an excitation frequency which occurs due to an external condition of the vehicle. The acoustic resonance device can be installed in a roof, a seat, a pillar supporting the roof, or a door of a vehicle.

In order to automate a microphone assembly process including a dust-proof treatment, an object of the present invention is to provide a dust-proof microphone having a configuration suitable for automated assembly.

According to the present invention, a microphone has a plate-like or film-like dust-proof section that is disposed in a conductive housing (capsule) having a sound aperture and covers the sound aperture. The dust-proof section has a plurality of pores at least in a region corresponding to the sound aperture, and the dust-proof section further has a nonporous region. In the case of an electret condenser microphone, from the viewpoint of performance of the microphone, the dust-proof section is conductive. In addition, taking into account a soldering in a reflow furnace, the dust-proof section is heat-resistant. Each pore is desirably designed taking into account the environment for the usage of the microphone. However, if it is supposed that the microphone is used near one's mouth, each pore has an area of 0.01 mm² or less. In addition, to enhance the dust-proof effect, the pores may be subjected to a water-repellent treatment.

An air intake sound control structure comprises a sound guiding pipe, a sound producing body, and a silencing means. The sound guiding pipe is branched off from a branch portion formed on a part of an air intake flow passage of an automobile, communicating with the air intake flow passage. The sound producing body is held by the sound guiding pipe at the position spaced apart from the branch portion, thereby sealing the sound guiding pipe, and producing a sound at a frequency which corresponds to its own natural vibration frequency by its vibration. The silencing means is disposed on the side of the branch portion of the sound guiding pipe and canceling a sound at a target frequency for suppression out of the air intake sound. The sound generated by the vibration of the sound producing body is transmitted into a vehicle interior.

A resonator 13 is provided including a resonating body 13 which is vibrated by intake air pulsation in an intake system 5, a volume chamber 14 connected through the resonating body 13 to the intake system 5, and a neck section 16 through which an interior space 15 of the volume chamber 14 is communicated with outside. The interior space 15 of the volume chamber 14 and interior of the intake system 5 are partitioned by the resonating body 13. The resonator is so set that a sound pressure in a certain frequency range is released from the neck section 16 to the outside under vibration of the resonating body 13. With this, the sound pressure characteristics of air intake sound can follow a rise in engine speed.

A pet abode with sound dampening characteristics comprising an interior space of a pet abode having sufficient dimensions to allow a pet to comfortably reside within the interior space. The interior space is formed from at least three walls where one or more of the walls exhibits sound dampening characteristics. The sound dampening characteristics reduces a one or more sounds originating from a source external to the interior space. That is, the interior space of the pet abode is sound proofed (or sound dampened), allowing a pet to be undisturbed by loud noises outside the interior space.

A loudspeaker unit (2) of a loudspeaker system (1) is fitted to a cabinet (4). An absorbent (3) is disposed in a hollow chamber (R) inside the cabinet (4) and absorbs a gas inside the hollow chamber (R). A phase inverting mechanism (8) inverts the phase by resonating with a sound of a specific frequency radiated from the loudspeaker unit (2) into the hollow chamber (R) and radiates this sound to outside. The watertight means of the phase inverting mechanism (8) prevents invasion of moisture into inside the hollow chamber (R) from outside the cabinet (4) through the phase inverting mechanism (8).

The present invention relates to a multiple channel earphone of small volume. In the earphone structure, a chamber tube with an adjusting hole or a set of adjusting holes is provided. The sound pressure of the chamber tube is naturally released without affected the performance of the main chamber sound field. When the external speaker connected to the chamber tube generates a large sound pressure, the sound pressure released naturally by the adjusting hole or a set of adjusting holes is increased accordingly, so that the sound pressure produced by the external speaker connected to the chamber tube is controlled by the main chamber.

The invention converts non audio systems into distributed audio sources for active noise control solutions. The system transforms non acoustic structures into soundboards using inertial type acoustic transducers. Acoustic parameters unique for each application due to the variation in properties of the sound board are compensated by equalizers. The invention also uses damping means to limit the reflection of bending waves from the edges. The inertial type acoustic transducer is driven by an amplifier. The acoustic signal to the amplifier is modified by a signal conditioner to compensate for the non optimal response of the acoustic system. An external controller communicates with the amplifier to control its operating parameters. A series of distributed audio sources in a variety of positions may each be addressable as a node on a network wherein noise detected at that source is analyzed and the system generates sound at that source to mask the noise.

A monopole acoustic transmitter with at least one disc assembly with a plurality of piezoelectric discs configured to optimized acoustic pressure output within a desired frequency range while meeting physical restrictions of LWD and MWD logging systems. The transmitter is disposed in a recess or “slot” in the perimeter of a logging tool housing to reduce acoustic pressure waves transmitted directly along the tool housing and to optimize acoustic energy transmission into the borehole environs. In order to increase acoustic pressure output at a desired logging frequency range, the plurality of piezoelectric discs in each of at least one disc assembly are connected electrically in parallel and fired simultaneously. The polarity of the discs and the wiring arrangement are such that each disc expands or contracts in a common direction during simultaneous firing by an applied voltage. The desired output frequency is obtained by selectively polarizing and dimensioning the discs within the one or more disc assemblies. Each disc assembly is preferably disposed within an oil filled pressure housing that is pressure and temperature compensated. The axis of the at least one disc assembly can be parallel or perpendicular to the major axis of the logging tool.
