SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR A WALL ASSEMBLY HAVING AN ACOUSTIC PANEL - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240026682 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR A WALL ASSEMBLY HAVING AN ACOUSTIC PANEL

Simplified Explanation

The abstract of the patent application describes various embodiments of a wall assembly that includes an acoustic panel with multiple thru-holes. These thru-holes are designed to disrupt low-density mechanically coupled pathways for sound transmission through the panel, thereby reducing sound transmission.

  • The patent application discloses a wall assembly with an acoustic panel that has multiple thru-holes.
  • The thru-holes in the acoustic panel are strategically placed to break low-density mechanically coupled pathways for sound transmission.
  • The purpose of the thru-holes is to reduce sound transmission through the acoustic panel.
  • The embodiments of the wall assembly described in the patent application aim to improve sound insulation and reduce noise pollution.

Potential Applications

  • Soundproofing walls in residential buildings, offices, and commercial spaces.
  • Creating quieter environments in hospitals, schools, and other noise-sensitive areas.
  • Enhancing privacy and reducing noise disturbance in hotels, apartments, and shared spaces.
  • Improving the acoustic performance of recording studios, theaters, and concert halls.

Problems Solved

  • Sound transmission through walls can be a significant issue in various settings, leading to noise pollution and reduced privacy.
  • Traditional wall assemblies may not effectively block sound transmission, especially low-frequency sounds.
  • Mechanically coupled pathways in acoustic panels can allow sound to pass through, reducing their effectiveness in sound insulation.

Benefits

  • Improved sound insulation and reduction of noise transmission through walls.
  • Enhanced privacy and reduced disturbance from external noise sources.
  • Increased comfort and better acoustic performance in various environments.
  • Potential energy savings by reducing the need for additional soundproofing measures.
