Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- This invention relates to a noise isolation sheet provided to cover a panel, e.g., a door inner panel which is installed inside an automobile door.
- 2. Description of the Prior Art
- As illustrated in FIG. 3, there have been a known method of insulating noise in the interior of a
door 60, wherein afelt 2 or urethane is attached to the backside of aninterior door trim 1 which is provided to the inner side of a door inner panel, or an urethane-made article is attached to the side of the door inner panel. - For example, the examined utility model application publication No. H5-23375 discloses a door trim which is provided with a pad material made of urethane foam and the like. The published patent application No. H10-119159 discloses a noise isolation cover made of urethane foam.
- However, according to the above-described prior arts, the noise insulating effect is not satisfactory because the
felt 2, urethane, pad material and isolation cover are all made independently and they are installed merely partially to the side of thedoor trim 1 or the inner side of the door inner panel. - Further, they had to be partially installed, so that there was a problem that the installation operation was troublesome.
- Concerning the above-mentioned problem, the applicant of the present invention previously provided a structure wherein an
isolation sheet 20 is provided between a doorinner panel 11 and adoor trim 12 and wherein the top end of thesheet 20 is secured to aninner weather strip 15 just like a curtain hanging from the upside to the downside (See Japanese patent application No. 2002-57777). - In this structure, the
inner weather strip 15 is composed of aninstallation base 16,seal lip portions door glass 70 which slides in the upward and downward directions from inner side, and asupport portion 19 which is prolonged downwardly from theinstallation base 16 for supporting theseal lip portions lip portions 16 a and position adjustment protrusions 16 b on the upper surface of theinstallation base 16. Theinstallation base 16 is inserted into aconcave portion 13 formed on the upper portion of thedoor trim 12, while each of the position adjustment protrusions 16 b makes a contact with a corresponding step portion 13 a for adjusting in a proper position. Thedoor trim 12 is fixed to a doorinner panel 11 withclips 50. - According to this structure, there is created two rooms X and Y between the door
inner panel 11 anddoor trim 12 through the intermediary of theisolation sheet 20, so that the noise insulating effect improves compared to the conventional arts which are provided with a felt, urethane, pad material, noise isolation cover and the like. Further, thenoise isolation sheet 20 is provided by merely hanging thesheet 20 from the upside to the downside, so that an installation operation is easy. - However, according to the prior art comprising a
noise isolation sheet 20, it is likely that water tends to invade from the outside of a car. Further, it is expected to produce a noise isolation sheet which is furnished with better noise insulating and water proofing functions. - Therefore, it is an object of this invention to provide a noise isolation sheet which enables to prevent water from invading from the outside of a car, and to improve a noise insulating property by restraining the outside noise to invade into the interior of a car as well as the interior noise to leak outside of the car, in comparison with the prior art.
- In order to solve the above-mentioned problems there is provided a noise isolation sheet (100) as claimed in
claim 1. The noise isolation sheet (100) partially or wholly covers a panel (11) provided inside a car door (60). The noise isolation sheet (100) is at least a double layer comprising an outer side sheet (101) and an inner side sheet (102). The outer side sheet (101) is a sheet made of a foam body having water absorption of less than 30%, and the inner side sheet (102) is a sheet made of a foam body having water absorption of 30% or more. - There is also provided a noise isolation sheet (100) as claimed in
claim 2 wherein the noise isolation sheet (100) is provided to a car door which comprises a door inner panel (11) and an interior door trim (12). The door trim (12) is provided inside the door inner panel (11). The noise isolation sheet (100) partially or wholly covers the door inner panel (11). The noise isolation sheet (100) is at least a double layer comprising an outer side sheet (101) and an inner side sheet (102). The outer side sheet (101) is a sheet made of a foam body having water absorption of less than 30%, and the inner side sheet (102) is a sheet made of a foam body having water absorption of 30% or more. - It will be noted that each numeral in a corresponding parenthesis indicates a corresponding element or item shown in the drawings or preferred embodiment of the invention described hereinafter.
- According to the invention, the noise isolation sheet, which covers a panel provided inside a door, is at least a double layer and is provided with an outer side sheet at the outer side thereof having water absorption of less than 30%, so that it enables to prevent water from invading from the outside of a car and to improve the noise insulating property as well.
- Further, there is provided an inner side sheet at the inner side which is made of a foam body having water absorption of 30% or more, so that the noise absorption property in the material can be improved through a wider range in a frequency band.
- Moreover, both the outer side sheet and inner side sheet are made of foam bodies so that the noise isolation sheet can be reduced in weight.
- FIG. 1 is a sectional view showing a primary portion of a noise isolation sheet according to the preferred embodiment of the invention.
- FIG. 2 is a graph showing frequency characteristics of a noise isolation sheet according to the preferred embodiment of the invention and a noise isolation sheet compared with the sheet of the invention.
- FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing an outlook of a door comprising a felt according to the prior art.
- FIG. 4 is an perspective view showing an outlook of a door comprising a noise isolation sheet according to an invention the applicant of this invention formally filed.

inner side sheet 102 includes, for example, a foam body having a plurality of closed cells as well ascontinuous cells 112 which are formed with some of the closed cells adjacently taking place and communicating with each other, and having water absorption of 30% or more. - The
noise isolation sheet 100 is roughly rectangular and it is made, though not critical, of those materials such as EPDM, CR, SBR, NBR and the like. Among those materials, it is preferable to choose EPDM in a point of view that it is highly foamed easily and is easily controlled in fixing a density thereof into a desired one. When EPDM is used, for example, it is preferred that the density thereof is fixed to 0.10 to 0.15. - The
