Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen reaktiv absorbierenden Schalldämpfer (nachstehend reaktiver
Schalldämpfer genannt) nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a reactive absorbing silencer (hereinafter more reactive
Called silencer) according to the preamble of
Die in der aktiven Lärmbekämpfung am meisten verfolgten und vielfach verfeinerten sogenannten Antischall-Systeme (Nelson, P.A., Elliott, S.J.: Active Control of Sound and Vibration. Academic Press Limited, London: 1992) zur Schalldämpfung in Kanälen beruhen auf einer einfachen Konzeption, Bild 5. Eine ankommende, primäre Schallwelle wird von einem Mikrofon (8) erfaßt, das sich in Richtung der Lärmquelle deutlich abgesetzt vor den übrigen Komponenten im Kanal befindet. Das erfaßte Mikrofonsignal wird durch eine Signalverarbeitung (11) rechnerisch möglichst genau um 180° gedreht und dient zur Ansteuerung eines Lautsprechers (9), der schließlich die sekundäre Schallwelle abstrahlt. In Schallausbreitungsrichtung überlagern sich beide Wellen im Idealfall bis zur Auslöschung. Die Überwachung dieser Auslöschung kann mit einem zweiten Mikrofon (10) in Schallausbreitungsrichtung erfolgen, dessen Signal gleichzeitig zur Anpassung der Signalverarbeitung an etwaige Veränderungen der Schallausbreitung im betreffenden Kanal dienen kann. Mit Hilfe moderner Signalprozessoren gelingt diese Prozedur zumindest unter Laborbedingungen sehr präzise. Ihr praktischer Einsatz ist jedoch durch hohe Empfindlichkeit bei überlagerter Luftströmung oder bei Temperaturschwankungen sowie durch hohen Aufwand an Elektronik und Signalverarbeitung gekennzeichnet. The most persecuted and refined in active noise abatement so-called anti-noise systems (Nelson, P.A., Elliott, S.J .: Active Control of Sound and Vibration. Academic Press Limited, London: 1992) for sound attenuation in ducts are based on a simple concept, Figure 5. An incoming, primary sound wave is detected by a microphone (8), which is clearly in the direction of the noise source separated from the other components in the channel. The captured microphone signal is arithmetically rotated as precisely as possible by signal processing (11) by 180 ° and serves to control a loudspeaker (9), which is ultimately the secondary Sound wave emits. In the direction of sound propagation, both waves overlap in the Ideally until extinction. This extinction can be monitored with a second microphone (10) in the direction of sound propagation, the signal at the same time to adapt signal processing to any changes in sound propagation can serve in the relevant channel. This is achieved with the help of modern signal processors The procedure is very precise, at least under laboratory conditions. Your practical use is however due to high sensitivity with superimposed air flow or at Temperature fluctuations as well as high expenditure on electronics and Signal processing marked.
Mit einem anderen Ansatz wird in DE 40 27 511 ein hybrider Schalldämpfer, Bild 6,
vorgeschlagen, bei dem an der Vorderseite eines bekannten, passiven Subsystems
(12) durch ein rückseitig ergänzendes aktives Subsystem eine optimale akustische
Impedanz der Kanalwand (1) realisiert werden soll, Den Ausgangspunkt bilden die
akustischen Eigenschaften des passiven Subsystems, z.B. einer Schicht aus porösem
Absorbermaterial. Die weiteren Elemente des hybriden Schalldämpfers dienen der
Generierung einer rückseitigen Abschlußimpedanz des passiven Subsystems. Zur
Erzwingung dieser Abschlußimpedanz ist der Schalldruck hinter dem passiven Subsystem
mit einem Mikrofon (13) zu messen. Anschließend wird die Mikrofonspannung
über einen Signalformer (15) an einen Lautsprecher (14) rückgekoppelt, an dessen
Membranfläche sich die berechnete Impedanz einstellen soll. Dieses Verfahren setzt
voraus, daß der in der DE 40 27 511 vorgeschlagene Signalformer erstens das Eigenverhalten
aller elektromechanischen Komponenten (Mikrofon, Lautsprecher, Box, etc.)
kompensiert und zweitens dem System die gewünschte Abschlußimpedanz aufprägt.
Die Eigenschaften der elektromechanischen Komponenten wurden gründlich untersucht
und beschrieben. Danach ist die Anpassung lediglich durch komplexe und nur
näherungsweise realisierbare Übertragungsfunktionen des Signalformers möglich.Another approach is

herkömmlicher Helmholtz-Resonator das in der DE 40 27 511 beschriebene passive
Subsystem, das auf seiner Rückseite aktiv beeinflußt wird. Im einzelnen ist der an
sich bekannte Helmholtz-Resonator durch einen Hohlkörper (16) und eine Öffnung
(17) definiert. Das außerhalb des Helmholtz-Resonators neben der Öffnung vorgesehene
Mikrofon (18) gibt die Information über den dort herrschenden Schalldruck,
womit ein Übertragungssystem (20) mit speziellem (PDT-) Frequenz- und Zeitverhalten
die erforderliche Spannung für den Lautsprecher (19) im Holhlkörper generiert. Dieser
Lautsprecher bestimmt bzw. verändert das Übertragungsverhalten (Resonanzfrequenz)
des ursprünglichen Helmholtz-Resonators. Der Lautsprecher im Hohlkörper dient damit
der praktischen Vergrößerung (allg. Veränderung) des Hohlkörpervolumens zur verbesserten
Schallabsorption des Helmholtz-Resonators bei tiefen Frequenzen. Das Ziel
hier besteht demnach in der aktiven Verringerung der Resonanzfrequenz und damit
der Schallabsorption des passiven Helmholtz-Resonators.Active Helmholtz resonators represent a variant of the basic idea of hybrid silencers

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, den Wirkungsgrad des reaktiven Schalldämpfers nach
dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 zu erhöhen und den technischen Aufwand zu verringern.
Erfindungsgemäß wird dies durch den reaktiven Schalldämpfer nach Anspruch
1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen gekennzeichnet.The object of the invention is to adjust the efficiency of the reactive silencer
to increase the preamble of
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen reaktiven Schalldämpfer, bei dem sowohl die Erfassung als auch die aktive Beeinflussung des Schallfeldes direkt und unmittelbar an der Kanalwand (1) erfolgt, Bild 1. Den Grundbaustein stellt eine geschlossene, kompakte Kassette (2) dar, in der alle Komponenten zusammengefaßt sind. Ihre Frontseite ist Teil der Kanalwand und wird durch mindestens eine schwingfähige Membran (3), z.B. eine Lautsprechermembran, verkörpert. Diese Membran (3) bildet durch ihre flächenbezogene Masse mit dem dahinter befindlichen Hohlraum (4) des Kassettengehäuses ein akustisches Resonanzsystem. Die auftretenden Schallwellen im Kanal regen dieses Resonanzsystem bei und in der Nähe seiner Eigenfrequenz zu Schwingungen an. Die Aktivierung erfolgt mit Hilfe eines Sensors (5), der in unmittelbarer Nähe, in oder an der Membran (3) angeordnet ist und die Membranschwingungen detektiert. Diese Sensorfunktion können z.B. Mikrofone, Körperschallaufnehmer oder optische Bewegungssensoren übernehmen. Das Ausgangssignal des Sensors dient nach einer invertierenden, linearen Verstärkung (6) der Ansteuerung eines elektroakustischen Wandlers (7), z.B. der Schwingspule eines Lautsprechers.The invention relates to a reactive silencer, in which both the detection as well as the active influencing of the sound field directly and immediately the duct wall (1) takes place, Figure 1. The basic building block is a closed, compact one Cassette (2) in which all components are summarized. Your front is part of the channel wall and is covered by at least one vibratable membrane (3), e.g. a loudspeaker membrane, embodied. This membrane (3) forms by its area Mass with the cavity (4) of the cassette housing behind it an acoustic resonance system. The occurring sound waves in the sewer rain this resonance system at and near its natural frequency to vibrate on. The activation takes place with the help of a sensor (5), which is in the immediate vicinity, is arranged in or on the membrane (3) and detects the membrane vibrations. This sensor function can e.g. Microphones, structure-borne sound sensors or optical Take over motion sensors. The output signal of the sensor is used after a inverting, linear amplification (6) of the control of an electroacoustic Transducer (7), e.g. the voice coil of a speaker.
Im Ergebnis wird die Membran zu stärkeren Schwingungen gezwungen, der Schalldruck an der ausgekleideten Wandfläche damit weiter reduziert und die Schallwelle stärker gedämpft.As a result, the membrane is forced to vibrate more, the sound pressure on the lined wall surface thus further reduced and the sound wave more subdued.
Die Form des Gehäuses (2) ist variierbar, da lediglich das Volumen des Hohlraumes (4) die Frequenzcharakteristik beeinflußt. Um Hohlraumresonanzen zu unterdrücken, können Absorber im Innern des nach außen schallundurchlässigen Gehäuses (2) vorgesehen sein. Zur spektralen Anpassung des Resonanzsystems kann weiterhin die flächenbezogene Membranmasse, z.B. durch unterschiedliche Lautsprecher, verwendet werden. Der prinzipbedingte lineare Verstärker (6) enthält keinerlei Frequenzbewertung des Sensorsignals, um die mit Filtern, Signalformern oder anderen Übertragungssystemen verbundenen unerwünschten Phasenverschiebungen zu vermeiden. Dadurch unterbleiben störende akustische Wechselwirkungen zwischen benachbarten Kassetten und großflächige, reaktive Schalldämpfer aus vielen Einzelkassetten z.B. in reaktiven Schalldämpferkulissen, Bild 2, werden möglich. Die Bereitstellung der Betriebsspannungen für die Sensoren (5) und Verstärker (6) erfolgt durch konventionelle Stromversorgungen oder Batterien. Die gemessene Einfügungsdämpfung eines beispielhaften reaktiven Schalldämpfers, Bild 3, bestehend aus 4 Kassetten, ist im Bild 4 dargestellt.The shape of the housing (2) can be varied, since only the volume of the cavity (4) affects the frequency characteristic. To suppress cavity resonance, absorbers can be provided inside the housing (2), which is soundproof his. For the spectral adaptation of the resonance system, the area-related can continue Membrane mass, e.g. through different speakers become. The principle-related linear amplifier (6) contains no frequency weighting of the sensor signal in order to use filters, signal formers or other transmission systems to avoid associated unwanted phase shifts. This prevents disturbing acoustic interactions between neighboring ones Cassettes and large-area, reactive silencers made of many individual cassettes, e.g. in reactive silencer backdrops, Figure 2, are possible. The provision of the operating voltages for the sensors (5) and amplifiers (6) is done by conventional Power supplies or batteries. The measured insertion loss of an example reactive silencer, Figure 3, consisting of 4 cassettes, is in Figure 4 shown.
Vorteile reaktiver Schalldämpfer gegenüber dem Stand der Technik Aus dem Grundprinzip des reaktiven Schalldämpfers, d.h. der Ausnutzung bzw. Verstärkung der Membranschwingungen als Schallfeld-Abbildung direkt in der Kanalwand, ergeben sich folgende Vorteile gegenüber bestehenden aktiven Schalldämpfern.Advantages of reactive silencers compared to the prior art From the basic principle of the reactive silencer, i.e. exploitation or reinforcement the membrane vibrations as a sound field image directly in the duct wall, This gives the following advantages over existing active silencers.
Der reaktive Schalldämpfer kommt ohne passive Subsysteme (poröse Absorber, Helmholtz-Resonatoren etc.) aus. Diese Tatsache sowie die räumliche Konzentration von Membran (3) und Sensor (5) in der Kanalwand ermöglichen die Verwendung eines einfachen Verstärkers (6). Dadurch können alle Komponenten des reaktiven Schall-dämpfers problemlos in einem kompakten Gehäuse (2) integriert werden.The reactive silencer comes without passive subsystems (porous absorbers, Helmholtz resonators etc.). This fact as well as the spatial concentration of membrane (3) and sensor (5) in the channel wall allow the use of a simple amplifier (6). This allows all components of the reactive silencer to be used can be easily integrated in a compact housing (2).
Die räumliche Kaskadierung mehrerer, benachbarter reaktiver Schalldämpfer in der Kanalwand oder in Schalldämpferkulissen ist möglich und führt zu entsprechend höherer Schalldämpfung. Die Dämpfungswirkung kaskadierter, reaktiver Schalldämpfer im Kanal ist praktisch nur durch Schallnebenwege (analog zu passiven Schalldämpfern) begrenzt.The spatial cascading of several neighboring reactive silencers in the Duct wall or in silencer backdrops is possible and leads to correspondingly higher ones Sound absorption. The damping effect of cascaded, reactive silencers in the Channel is practically only through secondary sound paths (analogous to passive silencers) limited.
Der reaktive Schalldämpfer ist an beliebige Schallfelder und an beliebige Schallfeldbegrenzungen, z.B. Kanalumlenkungen, adaptierbar. Die reaktiven Schalldämpferkassetten und damit alle elektroakustischen Komponenten können mit Hilfe akustisch durchlässiger Abdeckungen gegen im Kanal auftretende physikalische und chemische Belastungen geschützt werden.The reactive silencer is connected to any sound field and to any sound field limitation, e.g. Channel redirection, adaptable. The reactive silencer cassettes and thus all electroacoustic components can be acoustic using permeable covers against physical and chemical occurring in the channel Loads are protected.
Eine Ausgestaltung des reaktiven Schalldämpfers sieht bei der Verwendung eines Mikrofons als Sensor (5) dessen Positionierung hinter der Membran (3), d.h. im Hohlraum (4) der Kassette (2) vor. Das Funktionsprinzip des reaktiven Schalldämpfers ist nicht nur bei ebenen Wellen in vergleichsweise engen Kanälen anwendbar, sondern bewirkt auch eine Dämpfung modaler Schallfelder in beliebigen Kanälen oder Räumen. In diesen Anwendungsfällen verringern die schwingenden Membranen der reaktiven Kassetten ebenfalls flächenhaft den Schalldruck an der ausgekleideten Wandfläche und dämpfen das vorhandene Schallfeld.An embodiment of the reactive silencer sees the use of a Microphones as sensors (5) whose positioning behind the membrane (3), i.e. in the cavity (4) of the cassette (2). The principle of operation of the reactive silencer is not only applicable to flat waves in comparatively narrow channels, but also also effects a damping of modal sound fields in any channels or rooms. In these applications, the vibrating membranes reduce the reactive Cassettes also cover the sound pressure on the lined wall surface and dampen the existing sound field.
