[0015]The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: By combining the straight-through structure of the silencing inner cavity with the airflow refraction and reflection silencing principle of the silencing outer cavity, there is no need to accumulate porous materials, fundamentally reducing physical obstacles in the air duct and significantly lowering ventilation resistance. This avoids the problem of insufficient fan pressure reserve due to excessive resistance, ensures stable negative pressure in the exhaust system, and prevents the risk of harmful gas backflow. Furthermore, by controlling the expansion or closure of the transverse partition ring group through the drive component, the number of silencing sub-chambers in the silencing outer cavity can be flexibly adjusted, achieving a dynamic balance between silencing efficiency and ventilation resistance. When a high silencing effect is required, the transverse partition ring group is expanded to increase the number of sub-chambers, enhancing silencing by increasing the number of airflow refractions. When the fan pressure is insufficient or exhaust efficiency needs to be prioritized, the transverse partition ring group is closed to reduce the number of sub-chambers, lowering resistance to match the system pressure, thereby dynamically controlling the balance between silencing effect and ventilation efficiency.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of silencer technology, and in particular to a silencer for laboratory exhaust systems. Background Technology
[0002] As the core location for scientific research, testing, and teaching activities, laboratories rely on exhaust systems that play a crucial role in removing harmful gases generated during experiments and maintaining negative pressure balance to ensure personnel safety and a clean experimental environment. With increasing demands for precise environmental control in laboratories, the airflow and pressure of exhaust systems need to be dynamically adjusted according to experimental conditions. Furthermore, the noise generated during system operation has become a significant issue affecting the comfort and compliance of the laboratory environment.
[0003] Currently, most laboratory exhaust systems use industrial-grade silencers for noise control. Some laboratories use multi-stage resistive silencers, but the accumulation of porous materials in the ductwork leads to a significant increase in ventilation resistance. If the fan's air pressure reserve is insufficient, it can easily cause negative pressure imbalance in the exhaust system and even trigger the backflow of harmful gases.
[0004] Therefore, this utility model proposes a silencer for laboratory exhaust systems to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that excludes other embodiments.
[0025] Reference Figures 1-4 As shown, this embodiment provides a silencer for a laboratory exhaust system, comprising:
[0026] The muffler box 010 is a cylindrical structure that runs through the front and back. The muffler box 010 has a muffler cavity, and an annular inner partition 011 is arranged inside the muffler box 010. The muffler cavity is divided into an inner muffler cavity and an outer muffler cavity by the annular inner partition 011. The inner muffler cavity is formed by the inner sidewall of the annular inner partition 011 and is located in the core central area of the muffler box 010. The inner muffler cavity has a columnar or cylindrical structure, and the inner diameter of the inner muffler cavity is the same as the front and rear opening size of the muffler box 010. The outer muffler cavity is an annular space formed between the outer sidewall of the annular inner partition 011 and the inner sidewall of the muffler box 010. It completely surrounds the outer periphery of the inner muffler cavity and shares the annular inner partition 011 as the separating boundary with the inner muffler cavity. The surface of the annular inner partition 011 has multiple rings of guide holes 013 that are evenly distributed along the axis of the muffler cavity.
[0027] The cavity assembly includes multiple sets of transverse dividing ring plates 017 located in the silencing outer cavity and linearly distributed, and two sets of spacing adjustment assemblies 016 symmetrically distributed within the silencing outer cavity. A drive assembly is fixedly distributed at the bottom of the two sets of spacing adjustment assemblies 016. Each set of spacing adjustment assemblies 016 includes multiple positioning torque adjustment members that intersect each other. Each positioning torque adjustment member intersects a set of transverse dividing ring plates 017. The drive assembly drives the multiple positioning torque adjustment members to rotate to close or expand the transverse dividing ring plates 017.
[0028] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, each group of transverse dividing ring plates 017 includes multiple transverse dividing ring plates. The spacing between the multiple transverse dividing ring plates located in the silencing cavity is equal. The transverse dividing ring plates and the guide hole group 013 are staggered. In the annular area between each two adjacent transverse dividing ring plates, a ring of guide hole group 013 is correspondingly provided. The rings of guide hole groups 013 are equally spaced along the axial direction of the silencing cavity, and the number of guide hole groups 013 corresponds to the number of transverse dividing ring plates.
[0029] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, each set of transverse dividing ring pieces 017 consists of multiple transverse dividing ring pieces, namely, a first displacement ring piece 0171, a second displacement ring piece 0172, and a third positioning ring piece 0173. The first displacement ring piece 0171 and the second displacement ring piece 0172 are connected by a threaded straight cylinder 014 at the through-hole of the two positioning torque adjustment components.
[0030] The positioning torque adjustment component includes multiple supporting torque adjustment rods 0162. One end of each supporting torque adjustment rod 0162 passes through a positioning ring and is fitted with a limiting ring seat 0161. The limiting ring seat 0161 is assembled on the inner wall of the silencer box 010. A hexagonal linkage rod 0163 is inserted between the multiple supporting torque adjustment rods 0162. The multiple supporting torque adjustment rods 0162 of each group of positioning torque adjustment components rotate together through the hexagonal linkage rod 0163.
[0031] Furthermore, the two supporting torque adjustment rods 0162 are the first torque adjustment rod and the second torque adjustment rod, respectively. The rods of the first torque adjustment rod and the second torque adjustment rod that pass through the positioning ring are set as smooth rods. The first torque adjustment rod has an upper external thread section at the connection of the first displacement ring 0171, and the first torque adjustment rod has a lower external thread section at the connection of the second displacement ring 0172. The lengths of the upper external thread section and the lower external thread section are greater than the spacing between adjacent transverse dividing rings.
[0032] Furthermore, the drive assembly includes a drive motor 015 and a drive motor 018. The drive motor 015 drives the first torque adjustment rod to rotate, and the drive motor 018 drives the second torque adjustment rod to rotate at twice the speed of the first torque adjustment rod.
[0033] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, multiple guide strips 012 are equally spaced on the outer surface of the annular inner partition 011. Each group of guide holes 013 includes multiple guide holes distributed in an annular pattern, and each guide strip 012 is arranged between two adjacent guide holes.
[0034] Working principle: When laboratory exhaust enters the silencer box 010, the airflow mainly flows along the silencer cavity, while part of the airflow enters the silencer sub-chamber through the guide hole group 013 on the surface of the annular inner partition 011.
[0035] Within the silencing outer cavity, transverse partition rings 017 and guide hole groups 013 are staggered. Each annular area between two adjacent transverse partition rings corresponds to a ring of guide holes 013, forming multiple independent silencing sub-chambers. The airflow entering the silencing outer cavity undergoes multiple refractions, reflections, and energy dissipation within these sub-chambers to achieve the silencing effect. Therefore, the more silencing sub-chambers there are, the more times the airflow refracts within them, resulting in more significant energy attenuation and higher silencing efficiency.
[0036] When the silencing efficiency needs to be adjusted according to the exhaust speed or silencing requirements, drive motor 1 015 and drive motor 2 018 drive the two sets of positioning torque adjustment components to rotate, thereby causing the positioning torque adjustment components to rotate. This causes the first displacement ring 0171 and the second displacement ring 0172 to unfold or close in the same direction along the threaded section of the torque adjustment rod, increasing or decreasing the spacing between the transverse dividing rings, thereby increasing or decreasing the number of sub-chambers divided in the silencing outer cavity, thus changing the number of folds of the airflow in the silencing outer cavity and adjusting the silencing effect.
[0037] In addition, the guide strip 012 on the outer surface of the annular inner partition 011 ensures that the movement of the transverse partition ring is linear under the drive of a single positioning torque adjustment component.
[0038] Finally, the following points should be noted: First, in the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection", and "linkage" should be interpreted broadly, and can be mechanical or electrical connections, or internal connections between two components, or direct connections.
