Abstract

An improved cell structure that enables design improvements to acoustic panels is provided. The provided cell structure for an acoustic panel is (i) capable of damping a wider range of audible frequencies, (ii) able to be easily combined and integrated into a variety of panel dimensions, and (iii) manufacturable using additive manufacturing techniques such as direct metal laser sintering (DMLS).

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present disclosure generally relates to acoustic panels and methods of producing the same, and more particularly relates to a cell structure for use in various acoustic panel applications, and methods of producing the same.CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0002]This Application is a continuation of and claims priority to U.S. patent application Ser. No. 15 / 702,414 filed Sep. 12, 2017, and entitled “CELL STRUCTURE FOR USE IN AN ACOUSTIC PANEL, AND METHODS OF PRODUCING THE SAME,” which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.BACKGROUND[0003]In a variety of applications, such as aircraft, aircraft engines, automotive, mining, farming, audio equipment, heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC), and the like, pressure waves are generated in a broad range of audible frequencies. The audible frequencies are sound waves experienced as noise. Acoustic treatments employ acoustic panels to dampen the sound waves.[0004]The performance of a given acousti...
