  • Patent number: 10974279
    Abstract: The invention refers to an infrasound generator for enhancing the combustion of solid fuels burning in a combustion chamber. The infrasound is generated by one or more set(-s) of each two vibrating plates, vibrating in the same direction with the same displacement amplitude but in antiphase. The infrasound generator does not cause vibrations and is not sensitive to ash and heat from the combustion.

  • Patent number: 5350887
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method and apparatus for the generation of low frequency sound by means of the excitation of a low frequency standing gas borne sound wave. A low frequency sound generator comprises a resonator part and a feeder part with a feeder unit. The method consists of a controlled generation of periodic changes of the gas volume of the resonator part in order to create a standing sound wave. The invention also includes a feeder unit for the working of the method. The feeder unit comprised of three rotating parts, namely one center rotor and two side rotors, the rotation of which are synchronized. The feeder unit is open on two sides, each side communicating with one tubular resonator. The rotors are provided with cut out portions and the center rotor is also provided with a protruding vane-shaped part.

  • Patent number: 5109948
    Abstract: The invention relates to a frequency controlled motor driven low frequency sound generator. The low frequency sound generator consists of an open resonator (2) arranged as a sound emitter for generating standing gas-borne sound waves which produce a varying gas pressure inside the resonator, and a feeder unit (1) for a modulated supply of air pulses to the resonator. The feeder unit (1) comprises a motor driven piston (8) with an approximately sinusoidal volume velocity. The piston is mounted on a piston rod (7) which is connected to a flywheel (6). The flywheel, in its turn, is mounted on a shaft (5) which is driven by a motor (3). The motor speed and thereby the frequency of the piston is regulated by a special electronic control unit.

  • Patent number: 5005511
    Abstract: Air-driven, low-frequency sound generator with a positive feedback system, comprising, as a sound emitter, an open resonator (11) for the generation of standing gas-borne sound waves which produce a varying gas pressure inside the resonator; and feeder (10) with a tube (14) for the supply of pressure gas to the resonator and a back and forth movable springing valve slide (15) whose position remains unaffected by the pressure gas and which regulates the gas flow from the tube while creating a modulated flow of pressure to the resonator. The tube is surrounded by a surge tank (13), connected to the pressure gas source, and the valve slide is arranged as a piston movable inside the tube and is set to regulate a connecting opening (20) between the surge tank and the inside of the tube. This opening is situated at one end surface (19) of the piston and said end surface is being exposed to the inside of the resonator by means of the one end of the tube communicating therewith.

  • Patent number: 4517915
    Abstract: A low-frequency sound generator for generating intense sound, which generator includes an open resonator tube. Pressurized gas is supplied to the resonator tube as pulses through a feeder system which includes a valve slide member which controls the pressure of the supplied gas. The gas pulses develop standing sound waves in the resonator tube which provides a varying gas pressure. Means in the resonator tube is operable in response to changes in the gas pressure to provide positive feedback of the sound pressure in the resonator tube to the feeder system at a resonant frequency of the resonator tube.
