SOUND CONTROL FOR A HEATING, VENTILATION, AND AIR CONDITIONING UNIT

摘要

Systems and methods to isolate a vibration source (e.g., a compressor) externally are disclosed. The embodiments generally include preventing/reducing vibration and/or pulsation transmission from the vibration source by one or more functional/structural isolating members, and preventing/reducing sound radiated from the vibration source by one or more sound enclosures.

主权项

1. An external isolation system for a vibration source, comprising:
a sound enclosure configured to surround the vibration source so as to reduce sound radiated from the vibration source; a structural isolating member configured to support the vibration source and passively damp vibrations and/or pulsations; and a functional isolating member configured to maintain a functional connection with the vibration source.
