Abstract

An acoustic treatment panel including a cellular structure core sandwiched between a solid skin and a perforated skin, and a plurality of domes made of porous fabric and extending from at least one of the skins into the insides of the cells of the cellular structure towards the other skin so as to define at least two resonant cavities inside each cell of the cellular structure.

Claims (29)

1. An acoustic treatment panel comprising:

a cellular structure core sandwiched between a solid skin and a perforated skin; and

a plurality of domes made of porous fabric and extending from one of the solid or perforated skins into insides of cells of the cellular structure towards the other of the solid or perforated skins so as to define at least two resonant cavities inside each cell of the cellular structure,

wherein the domes are partially obstructed,

wherein the domes are independent of one another and are fastened to a unitary structure, and

wherein a portion of the unitary structure is inserted in each cell of the cellular structure.

2. The panel according to claim 1 , wherein the domes form a single layer of porous fabric assembled to at least one of the solid or perforated skins.

3. The panel according to claim 1 , wherein the unitary structure comprises a plurality of filaments that are mounted inside the cells of the cellular structure and that are connected to one another by crossing the cells through notches made in walls thereof, the domes being fastened inside said filaments.

4. The panel according to claim 1 , wherein the unitary structure comprises a trellis that is fastened on one of the solid or perforated skins and that includes a plurality of bases on which the domes are fastened.

5. The panel according to claim 4 , wherein each base is made from a large mesh fabric.

6. The panel according to claim 1 , wherein the domes are made of a porous fabric made of polymer, metal, or glass.

7. The panel according to claim 1 , wherein each of the domes is bullet-shaped or pyramid-shaped.

8. A turbine engine comprising:

an acoustic treatment panel comprising:

a cellular structure core sandwiched between a solid skin and a perforated skin; and

a plurality of domes made of porous fabric and extending from one of the solid or perforated skins into insides of cells of the cellular structure towards the other of the solid or perforated skins so as to define at least two resonant cavities inside each cell of the cellular structure,

wherein the domes are partially obstructed,

wherein the domes are independent of one another and are fastened to a unitary structure, and

wherein a portion of the unitary structure is inserted in each cell of the cellular structure.

9. A method of fabricating an acoustic treatment panel, the method comprising:

forming a cellular structure core presenting a first opening face for cells and a second opening face for the cells;

laying a solid skin on the first opening face for the cells; and

laying a perforated skin on the second opening face for the cells;

wherein the laying of at least one of the two skins includes previously adhesively bonding a plurality of domes made of porous fabric to the corresponding skin, the domes bonded to a skin extending from said skin into the insides of the cells of the cellular structure towards the other skin so as to define at least two resonant cavities inside each cell of the cellular structure once the cellular structure has been assembled,

wherein the domes are independent of one another and are fastened to a unitary structure, and

wherein a portion of the unitary structure is inserted in each cell of the cellular structure.

10. The method according to claim 9 , further comprising, prior to bonding domes on a skin, shaping a single layer of porous fabric into a layer of domes for bonding to the corresponding skin.

11. The method according to claim 9 , wherein the unitary structure comprises a trellis, each dome being fastened to the unitary structure by fastening the trellis to one of the solid or perforated skins, the trellis including a plurality of bases to which the domes are fastened.

12. The method according to claim 9 , including partially obstructing the pores of the fabric domes assembled inside the cells of the cellular structure of the panel.
