Abstract

An acoustic insulation product includes a panel made of porous material, based on foam or fibres, including a first face, referred to as back face, intended to face towards a wall, and a second face, referred to as front face, situated on the opposite side to the back face, and a layer, referred to as backing layer, which adheres to or is linked or coupled at least in part to the back face of the panel made of porous material, the backing layer having an airflow resistance of between 5 kPa·s/m and 20 kPa·s/m.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. An acoustic insulation product, comprising:
a panel made of porous material comprising a first face forming a back face, intended to face towards a wall surface and a second face forming a front face, situated opposite to the back face,
a layer forming a backing layer, which adheres to or is linked or coupled at least in part to the back face of the panel made of porous material, the backing layer having an airflow resistance of between 5 kPa·s/m and 20 kPa·s/m,
wherein the panel made of porous material has an airflow resistivity of between 30 kPa·s/m 2 and 120 kPa·s/m 2 .

2. The acoustic insulation product according to claim 1 , wherein the backing layer is a woven or nonwoven fibrous web, a layer of paint or a layer of compressed mineral wool, or a plastic film or any material in the form of a film or of a membrane.

3. The acoustic insulation product according to claim 1 , wherein the backing layer has a thickness of less than or equal to 1 cm.

4. The acoustic insulation product according to claim 1 , wherein the backing layer is microperforated.

5. The acoustic insulation product according to claim 4 , wherein the microperforated backing layer has, for a thickness L, a degree of perforation ϕ and a perforation diameter D such that ϕD 2 =32η×L/(σL), where σL denotes the airflow resistance of the microperforated backing layer and η the dynamic viscosity of the air.

6. The acoustic insulation product according to claim 1 , wherein the panel made of porous material, based on foam or fibers, is a panel made of mineral and/or plant and/or synthetic wool, a panel made of foam with open porosity, or a panel of agglomerated fibers obtained by a wet route.

7. The acoustic insulation product according to claim 1 , wherein the panel made of porous material has a surface density of between 0.8 kg/m 2 and 10 kg/m 2 .

8. The acoustic insulation product according to claim 1 , wherein the panel made of porous material has a Young's modulus of between 0.1 MPa and 4 MPa.

9. The acoustic insulation product according to claim 1 , wherein the panel made of porous material has a thickness of between 10 mm and 60 mm.

10. The acoustic insulation product according to claim 1 , further comprising a second layer forming a front layer, in the form of a web, a membrane, a film, a paint or a plaster layer, connected or adhesively bonded to the front face of the panel made of porous material, the front layer having an airflow resistance of less than or equal to 1 kPa·s/m.

11. The acoustic insulation product according to claim 1 , intended to be used as an acoustic ceiling tile on a frame suspended from a ceiling with a plenum between the acoustic insulation product and the ceiling.

12. An acoustic insulation system suspended under a ceiling or in front of a wall, comprising a structure for suspending an insulating cladding at a distance from the ceiling or from the wall, wherein the cladding comprises at least one acoustic insulation product according to claim 1 , the backing layer being oriented toward the ceiling or the wall.

13. The acoustic insulation product according to claim 1 , wherein the panel is based on foam or fibers.

14. The acoustic insulation product according to claim 1 , wherein the wall surface is a ceiling or a wall.

15. The acoustic insulation product according to claim 1 , wherein the airflow resistance is between 7 kPa·s/m and 15 kPa·s/m.

16. The acoustic insulation product according to claim 3 , wherein the backing layer has a thickness of less than or equal to 1 mm.

17. The acoustic insulation product according to claim 1 , wherein the airflow resistivity of the panel made of porous material is between 50 kPa·s/m 2 and 80 kPa·s/m 2 .

18. The acoustic insulation product according to claim 8 , wherein the Young's modulus is between 2 MPa and 4 MPa.

19. The acoustic insulation product according to claim 8 , wherein the first and second faces of the panel are planar faces.

20. A method comprising:
forming an acoustic ceiling tile with an acoustic insulation product on a frame suspended from a ceiling with a plenum between the acoustic insulation product and the ceiling,
wherein the acoustic insulation product includes a panel made of porous material comprising a first face forming a back face, intended to face towards a wall surface and a second face forming a front face, situated opposite to the back face, and a layer forming a backing layer, which adheres to or is linked or coupled at least in part to the back face of the panel made of porous material, the backing layer having an airflow resistance of between 5 kPa·s/m and 20 kPa·s/m, and wherein the backing layer is oriented toward the ceiling, and
wherein the panel made of porous material has an airflow resistivity of between 30 kPa·s/m 2 and 120 kPa·s/m 2 .
