  • Patent number: 11398214
    Abstract: A method is provided for forming a structured panel. During this method, a cellular core is formed that comprises a corrugated ribbon configured with a plurality of baffles and a plurality of septums. Each of the septums extends longitudinally between and connected to a respective adjacent pair of the baffles. At least one element of the corrugated ribbon includes a structural reinforcement. The forming includes: feeding a ribbon of material between a first roller and a second roller, corrugating the ribbon of material with the first roller and the second roller to provide the baffles and the septums, and stamping the structural reinforcement into the element with the first roller and the second roller. The cellular core is bonded to a first skin. The cellular core is bonded to a second skin. The cellular core is vertically between the first skin and the second skin, and the first skin is configured with a plurality of perforations.

  • Patent number: 11242822
    Abstract: A structured panel is provided that includes a first skin with a plurality of perforations, a second skin and a core. The core forms a plurality of cavities vertically between the first skin and the second skin. Each of the cavities is respectively fluidly coupled with one or more of the perforations. The cavities include a first cavity. An element of the core is configured with a multi-layered structure. The multi-layered structure includes a first layer and a second layer attached to the first layer. The first layer is configured with a first rib projecting into the first cavity.

  • Patent number: 10906659
    Abstract: A panel is provided for attenuating sound. This panel includes a perforated first skin, a second skin and a core. The core forms a plurality of cavities vertically between the perforated first skin and the second skin. The core includes an array of corrugations that include a first baffle, a second baffle and a first septum. The cavities include a first cavity formed longitudinally between the first baffle and the second baffle. The first cavity is fluidly coupled with perforations in the first skin. The first septum extends from the first skin and the first baffle to the second skin and the second baffle. The first septum divides the first cavity into fluidly coupled sub-cavities. At least one element of the panel includes at least one first rib and at least one second rib, the first rib extends along a first trajectory and the second rib extends along a second trajectory that is non-parallel with the first trajectory.
