Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

This technology provides a sound absorbing structure comprising: an outer frame including an opening; a perforated plate member formed in the outer frame and including a rear surface facing the opening of the outer frame and a front surface opposite to the rear surface; and a rear sound absorber interposed between the rear surface of the perforated plate member and the opening of the outer frame, and an anechoic chamber comprising: a wall, a ceiling and a floor; and a plurality of sound absorbing structures of the embodiment fixed to at least the wall and the ceiling.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A sound absorbing structure comprising: an outer frame including an opening; a perforated plate member formed in the outer frame and including a rear surface facing the opening of the outer frame and a front surface opposite to the rear surface; and a rear sound absorber interposed between the rear surface of the perforated plate member and the opening of the outer frame. 2 . The sound absorbing structure of claim 1 , further comprising a front sound absorber interposed between the front surface of the perforated plate member and the outer frame. 3 . The sound absorbing structure of claim 2 , wherein the front sound absorber comprises a porous sound absorber. 4 . The sound absorbing structure of claim 3 , wherein the porous sound absorber comprises one or more selected from the group consisting of an inorganic fiber, an organic fiber, a chemical fiber, a foamed resin material and a sprayed fiber material. 5 . The sound absorbing structure of claim 2 , wherein the front sound absorber has a thickness greater than 0 mm and up to 350 mm. 6 . The sound absorbing structure of claim 2 , further comprising a protective layer surrounding the front sound absorber. 7 . The sound absorbing structure of claim 1 , wherein the rear sound absorber comprises a porous sound absorber. 8 . The sound absorbing structure of claim 7 , wherein the rear sound absorber comprises one or more selected from the group consisting of an inorganic fiber, an organic fiber, a chemical fiber, a foamed resin material and a sprayed fiber material. 9 . The sound absorbing structure of claim 1 , wherein the rear sound absorber has a thickness of 50 to 250 mm. 10 . The sound absorbing structure of claim 1 , further comprising a protective layer surrounding the rear sound absorber. 11 . The sound absorbing structure of claim 1 , wherein the perforated plate member comprises one or more selected from the group consisting of a metal plate, a gypsum board, an asbestos cement board, a hard board, plywood, a wood wool board and a synthetic resin plate. 12 . The sound absorbing structure of claim 1 , wherein the perforated plate member has a ratio of a total area of pores to an area of the plate of 1 to 15%. 13 . The sound absorbing structure of claim 1 , wherein the perforated plate member further comprises a cap for holding a pore height, wherein the cap for holding the pore height has a hollow shape and has a height which is equal to or greater than the pore height. 14 . The sound absorbing structure of claim 1 , wherein the outer frame comprises a porous plate in which pores are formed in the plate. 15 . The sound absorbing structure of claim 1 , wherein the outer frame has a ratio of a total area of pores to an area of the plate of 30 to 50%. 16 . The sound absorbing structure of claim 1 , wherein the sound absorbing structure has a plate shape. 17 . The sound absorbing structure of claim 1 , wherein the perforated plate member absorbs sound due to resonance caused by vibration of the plate. 18 . An anechoic chamber comprising: a wall, a ceiling and a floor; and a plurality of sound absorbing structures of claim 1 fixed to at least the wall and the ceiling. 19 . The anechoic chamber of claim 18 , wherein the plurality of sound absorbing structures are fixed to all of the wall, the ceiling and the floor.
