Abstract

A noise reduction gas path structure includes a gas path chamber; an acoustically transparent and anti-aeration element in the gas path chamber, the acoustically transparent and anti-aeration element is configured to divide the gas path chamber into a gas flow portion and a sound-absorbing portion; and a sound-absorbing filler in the sound-absorbing portion, the sound-absorbing filler is configured to absorb sound entering the sound-absorbing portion from the gas flow portion through the acoustically transparent and anti-aeration element. A gas path device includes the above noise reduction gas path structure. And a respirator includes the gas path device.

Claims (13)

1. A noise reduction gas path structure, comprising:

a gas path chamber;

an acoustically transparent and anti-aeration element in the gas path chamber, wherein the acoustically transparent and anti-aeration element is configured to divide the gas path chamber into a gas flow portion and a sound-absorbing portion; and

a sound-absorbing filler in the sound-absorbing portion, the sound-absorbing filler is configured to absorb sound entering the sound-absorbing portion from the gas flow portion through the acoustically transparent and anti-aeration element,

wherein the acoustically transparent and anti-aeration element is made of an elastic material to vibrate the acoustically transparent and anti-aeration element due to the sound, and

wherein a resonance gap is formed between the sound-absorbing filler and the acoustically transparent and anti-aeration element.

2. The noise reduction gas path structure according to claim 1 , wherein the sound-absorbing portion and the gas flow portion are configured to extend in parallel.

3. A gas path device, comprising the noise reduction gas path structure according to claim 1 , a housing and a fan, wherein the noise reduction gas path structure is disposed in the housing, the housing is further provided with a power chamber in communication with the gas path chamber, and the fan is disposed in the power chamber.

4. The gas path device according to claim 3 , wherein the gas path chamber is configured to extend in a serpentine manner.

5. The gas path device according to claim 4 , wherein the gas path chamber is provided with a guide plate at a bend of the gas path chamber, and the guide plate is configured to bend corresponding to the bend of the gas path chamber.

6. The gas path device according to claim 4 , wherein the gas path device is configured such that a gas flow passes through the gas path chamber and the power chamber sequentially, the power chamber is positioned above the gas path chamber, and the gas path chamber extends in a zigzag manner in a horizontal direction.

7. The gas path device according to claim 6 , wherein the housing is divided into an upper hood body and a lower plate, the upper hood body has the power chamber, a lower side of the upper hood body is configured with a gas flow slot, a slot opening of the gas flow slot is covered by the acoustically transparent and anti-aeration element to form the gas flow portion, the lower plate is positioned on a side of the acoustically transparent and anti-aeration element away from the upper hood body, the sound-absorbing portion is formed by the lower plate and the acoustically transparent and anti-aeration element, and the acoustically transparent and anti-aeration element is clamped and fixed by the lower plate and the upper hood body.

8. A respirator, comprising the gas path device according to claim 3 .
