Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of a new generation of acoustic devices, and specifically relates to a fan-shaped ventilation and sound insulation device based on a Helmholtz resonance cavity, and also relates to an acoustic barrier. Background Art
[0002] Low-frequency noise (frequency range of 200 Hz to 2000 Hz) has the characteristics of long propagation distance, slow energy attenuation, and strong diffraction ability, which affects people's quality of life and working environment. Most conventional sound insulation means adopt a closed structure, such as a solid wall or sound-absorbing board. Although it can isolate noise to a certain extent, it also hinders air circulation and is not conducive to heat exchange and air ventilation. Therefore, in scenarios such as subway ventilation openings and equipment room entrances where both sound insulation and ventilation efficiency need to be ensured, traditional structures are difficult to meet the actual use requirements.
[0003] For this reason, in recent years, some integrated ventilation and sound insulation structure design schemes have emerged. Among them, the ventilation and sound insulation structure based on the Helmholtz resonance cavity principle has received wide attention because it can absorb sound waves in a specific frequency band. This type of structure mainly includes the following typical forms: (1) The planar array type Helmholtz resonance structure weakens sound waves of a specific frequency by setting a periodic resonance cavity array, but its structure volume is large, the air flow channel is narrow, and the ventilation efficiency is limited; (2) The spiral or maze type acoustic structure realizes sound insulation by using the phase delay effect brought by the extended sound wave propagation path, but its processing is complex, the structure is huge, and the low-frequency performance is still limited; (3) The folded structure design obtains a lower resonance frequency by increasing the structure length through spatial folding, but usually brings problems such as increased air flow resistance and poor structure regulation accuracy.
[0004] Generally speaking, the existing ventilation and sound insulation structures still have the following problems: First, the sound insulation effect in the low-frequency band (200 Hz to 500 Hz) is not ideal, and it is difficult to meet the noise reduction requirements in actual applications; second, the ventilation efficiency is low, and the dual performance of sound insulation and ventilation cannot be taken into account; third, the structure is complex and the manufacturing difficulty is large, which is not conducive to batch engineering applications. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new type of ventilation and sound insulation device with better sound insulation effect in the low-frequency band, good ventilation performance at the same time, and a compact and easy-to-process structure. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The object of the present invention is to provide a fan-shaped ventilation and sound insulation device and an acoustic barrier based on a Helmholtz resonance cavity.

The opening angles of the empty slots 5 between adjacent resonance cavity units 2, the opening angles of the empty slots 5 between adjacent neck units 3, and the opening angles of the empty slots 5 between the neck unit 3 and the resonance cavity unit 2 are the same.

[0021] The number range of the micro-cavity structure units is 4 to 8; the thickness range of the resonance cavity unit 2 in the micro-cavity structure unit is 0.24 cm to 1.9 cm.
[0022] The opening angles of the empty slots 5 between adjacent resonance cavity units 2, the opening angles of the empty slots 5 between adjacent neck units 3, and the opening angles of the empty slots 5 between the neck unit 3 and the resonance cavity unit 2 are 2 degrees.

[0026] The design scheme of the microcavity structure unit is the key to realizing sub-wavelength multi-frequency resonance in the present invention. Moreover, a single microcavity structure unit simultaneously supports multiple low-order resonance modes, which is of fundamental importance for realizing the design of an omnidirectional ventilation acoustic barrier structure in the low-frequency band.
[0027] The working principle of the fan-shaped ventilation and sound insulation device designed by the present invention is as follows: when sound waves enter the microcavity structure unit with a gradually changing thickness, the resonance cavity units 2 with different thicknesses excite low-order resonance modes at their respective corresponding frequency points, thereby absorbing and dissipating the sound wave energy and achieving the sound wave suppression effect in multiple frequency bands. Since these units have sub-wavelength characteristics, they can achieve sound insulation at multiple frequency points within a small structural scale. Among them, the resonance cavity unit 2 is responsible for the main sound energy storage and resonance, the neck unit 3 restricts air exchange and enhances the resonance coupling effect, and the small arc unit 4 is used for transitional connection and maintaining a continuous air channel.

[0029] The embodiment of the present invention also provides an acoustic barrier, which uses the above-mentioned fan-shaped ventilation and sound insulation device based on the Helmholtz resonance cavity as the basic unit. The substrates of multiple fan-shaped ventilation and sound insulation devices are spliced with each other, and each fan-shaped ventilation and sound insulation device is arranged periodically in the horizontal and vertical directions. For the schematic diagram of the actual application scenario of the acoustic barrier, refer to Figure 9 , and for the transmission coefficient spectrum of the acoustic barrier, refer to Figure 10 .
[0030] In summary, the present invention proposes a fan-shaped ventilation and sound insulation device and an acoustic barrier based on the Helmholtz resonance cavity, and its core lies in a microcavity structure unit with a gradually changing thickness feature. This structure is composed of multiple resonance cavity units distributed in the circumferential direction of the main body. Each resonance cavity unit gradually changes its cavity thickness in the circumferential direction on the premise of maintaining the overall structural symmetry, so that different units have different effective resonance lengths and cavity volumes. This angular gradient design of the thickness enables a single sub-wavelength structure unit to simultaneously excite low-order resonance modes at multiple frequency points, thereby achieving the ability to suppress sound waves in multiple frequency bands or even wide frequency bands. By finely controlling the cavity length, width, and cavity thickness, high-efficiency sound energy capture performance can be obtained at a small structural scale, and it has a significant sound insulation effect. In addition, this structure adopts a hollow ventilation design, which can keep the air flowing naturally while effectively suppressing low-frequency noise, and is suitable for actual scenarios with high requirements for both ventilation and sound insulation performance, such as urban traffic air ducts, subway entrances and exits, and ventilation equipment rooms. Numerical simulation and simulation results show that this structure can achieve stable sound energy suppression in multiple low-frequency bands, and its sound insulation peak can be flexibly adjusted by adjusting geometric parameters. The present invention also has good scalability and tailoring properties. Users can customize the required sound insulation performance and ventilation capacity by adjusting parameters such as the number of resonance cavity units, angular distribution, and thickness change gradient according to the target frequency range, providing a new and efficient solution for the design of multi-frequency broadband sound insulation devices.

However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention within the scope of knowledge possessed by those of ordinary skill in the art.
