  • Patent number: 9516966
    Abstract: A sound-insulating curtain includes a sound-absorbing core formed by laminating porous sheets and films, is covered by covers, and sewn in an integrated manner. Even after being integrally laminated, adjacently laminated layers are not excessively restrained in places other than sewn areas, and therefore displacement and deformation between layers caused by sound pressure can be tolerated. Sound absorption effects are appropriately produced by each layer, which tolerates such displacement and deformation, while reliably maintaining integrity during handling. Thus, the entire curtain maintains the ability to absorb sounds, efficiently attenuates noise that attempts to pass through the curtain, and suppresses the transmission of noise, thereby enabling noise to be reliably prevented from passing through the curtain.

  • Patent number: 9027705
    Abstract: There is provided a sound absorbing member lamination structure in which the functions by the sound field adjustment can effectively be achieved by preventing the sound reflection against an intension of design in a boundary between the sound absorbing member and the other layer, when the sound absorbing member and the other layer are laminated into a united body. When the sound absorbing member and the other layer are placed in a stacked state, they are bonded with the use of a pressure-sensitive adhesive, so that the sound absorbing member and the other layer are combined together, with the pressure-sensitive adhesive kept uncured in a stacked state of the sound absorbing member and the other layer. Thus, such an uncured pressure-sensitive adhesive does not become a reflection portion of a sound. It is therefore possible to cause the sound to pass through appropriately the boundary between the respective layers.
