Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of noise control, and particularly relates to an acoustic black hole sound absorption structure. Background Art

[0002] The concept of acoustic black hole is extended from the concept of black hole in astrophysics. The traditional acoustic black hole structure refers to the phenomenon that when the thickness of a beam or plate structure gradually decays to zero according to a power function, the wave speed of the flexural wave inside the structure gradually slows down to zero, so that the flexural wave will not be reflected. Due to its simple structure and easy implementation, the acoustic black hole structure has currently become one of the important research directions for vibration control. For example, in the invention patent application with the application number 201810086724.0, it is proposed to achieve broadband vibration suppression of a vibrating structure through a one-dimensional acoustic black hole beam. In the invention patent applications with the application numbers 201711382962.8, 202110205344.6, and 202010894671.2, it is proposed to use the acoustic black hole structure in a dynamic vibration absorber to achieve the effect of broadband vibration control. In the invention patent application with the application number 202110538300.5, a vibration reduction and noise reduction enhancement structure hybridized with heterogeneous / heteromorphic acoustic black holes and phononic crystals is proposed, and broadband vibration reduction and noise reduction are achieved by combining a uniform circular two-dimensional acoustic black hole structure and a wedge-shaped two-dimensional acoustic black hole structure. In the invention patent application with the application number 202110986436.2, a hexagonal periodic acoustic black hole structure is proposed for structural vibration reduction and noise reduction.

[0003] It is noted that currently, the acoustic black hole structure mainly controls noise by reducing structural vibration, and it is necessary to paste a damping layer on the surface of the acoustic black hole structure, which is difficult to be applied to space sound absorption. The present invention applies the concept of acoustic black hole to the design of a muffler, and provides an acoustic black hole sound absorption structure with a simple structure, without the need for sound absorption materials or damping materials, for broadband control of noise.

The diameter of the circular plates gradually increases from one end of the support rod to the other end.

The diameter of the largest circular plate 3 is equal to the inner diameter of the cylindrical cavity 1. The largest circular plate 3 is fixed at one end of the cylindrical cavity 1 to seal that end of the cylindrical cavity 1. The diameter of the circular plates 3 increases gradually according to a power function, and the power function is where the exponent n ≥ 1, d represents the diameter of the circular plate 3, x represents the distance between any circular plate 3 and the largest circular plate 3, L represents the length of the cylindrical cavity 1, D1 represents the minimum diameter of the circular plate, and (D0 + D1) represents the inner diameter of the cylindrical cavity (1). The sum of D0 and D1 represents the inner diameter of the cylindrical cavity (1).

[0019] Further, the support rod 2 is cylindrical, and the length of the support rod 2 is equal to the length of the cylindrical cavity 1.
