Abstract: The invention relates to a silencer (1) for noise-laden gas pipes, especially for a suction pipe and/or an exhaust pipe of an internal combustion engine, comprising an outer pipe (2) with an inlet side (3) and an outlet side (4), a plurality of diaphragm rings (9, 9′, 9″, ′″, 9″″) each with an outer surface connected (5) to the inner surface of the outer pipe (2), at least one insert (6) with an outer surface connected (7) to the inner surface of the outer pipe (2) and/or the diaphragm rings (9, 9′, 9″, 9′″, 9″″) and with a plurality of openings (8) which are closed on one side. Said insert (6) forms sub-pipes for the gas flow in the silencer, and the openings (8), which are closed on one side, open into the sub-pipes, the depth thereof being /4 in relation to the wavelength of a frequency to be silenced.

Abstract: The invention relates to a directly hydraulically damping broadband damper designed as a sequence of Helmholtz resonators with elastomer/gas springs to damp pressure pulses in pressurized liquids and in the audible range frequencies, in particular in hydraulic servo systems.
