Benefits of technology

The present invention aims to provide a structure that can effectively insulate low-frequency sounds, particularly in the range of 200 to 1000 Hz, while taking into consideration the limitations of materials and thickness. The structure should be heat-resistant, flexible, and able to withstand vibration. The use of a metal foil layer as an intermediate layer can improve the sound-insulating property of the structure, and the thickness of the metal foil layer should be limited to a level falling within the range of 5 to 100 mm. The overall thickness of the structure should be limited to a level falling within the range of 5 to 100 mm.

Problems solved by technology

However, it is difficult that the aforementioned glass wool formed by pressure-molding with heating would insulate the sounds whose frequency falls within the range specified above and accordingly, there has been desired for the development of a novel sound-insulating material.

example

[0049]Short glass fibers each having an average diameter of 7 μm and an average length of 30 mm were prepared by the centrifugal spinning technique and an uncured water-soluble phenol resin (resol type one having a solid content of 30% by mass) was adhered to the spun short glass fibers by spraying the same on the fibers in an amount of 0.1 time (by mass) that of the short glass fibers using a spray gun. The short glass fibers provided with the uncured phenol resin adhered thereto were fed to a fiber-collector in which the fibers were integrated through aspiration to thus give a glass wool prepreg having a volume density of 16 kg / m3.

[0050]On the other hand, an aluminum metal foil having a predetermined thickness (20 μm, 50 μm and 85 μm) was sandwiched between two layers of the foregoing glass wool prepreg to form a superposed structure and then the superposed structure was heated to 250° C. for 200 seconds while applying a pressure of 2×105 Pa to thus give a laminated structure havi...

Abstract

Herein provided is a sound-insulating laminated structure which is excellent in the ability of insulating low frequency sounds whose frequency falls within the range of from 200 to 1000 Hz. The sound-insulating laminated structure comprises a first glass wool layer, a metal foil layer free of any opening and a second glass wool layer. The first and second glass wool layers are ones each prepared by collecting and combining short glass fibers through the application of an uncured thermosetting phenol resin to the short glass fibers to thus give a web of glass wool prepreg and then molding, with heating, the web into a sound-insulating laminated structure having a desired shape.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 12 / 521,203, filed Jun. 25, 2009, which was the National Stage filing under §371 of PCT / JP2007 / 072271, filed Nov. 16, 2007, which claims priority to Japanese Patent Application No. 2007-007658, filed Jan. 17, 2007, the entire content of each of which is incorporated herein by reference.TECHNICAL FIELD[0002]The present invention relates to a sound-insulating laminated structure having an excellent ability of insulating or absorbing low frequency sounds.TECHNICAL BACKGROUND ART[0003]There has conventionally been used glass wool, for instance, around the engines of automobiles in order to insulate noises from the engines or the like. Such glass wool used therein has been produced by applying an uncured thermosetting resin to spun short glass fibers, collecting and combining the short glass fibers to thus give a web and then pressure-molding the resulting web with heating. ...
