Acoustical Vibration Dampener for a Rotatable Blade

摘要

An acoustical vibration dampening system for a rotatable blade comprises at least one section of a rotatable blade and a layer of acoustic damping material coupled to a portion of the at least one section of a rotatable blade. A fan blade comprises a first structural section of a fan blade, a second structural section of the fan blade, and a layer of acoustic damping material provided between the first structural section and the second structural section of the fan blade. A method of making a fan blade with acoustic damping comprises forming at least two sections of a fan blade, and disposing an acoustical vibration dampener between the at least two sections of the fan blade.
