Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 141 words
A silencer comprising a double open end thick sound absorbing small diameter metal cylinder housing; one end of said housing having an inlet connected to a source of exhausted air; two sintered bronze baffles disposed within said housing adjacent said open ends; with said baffles being oppositely arranged truncated cones having their enlarged open ends contiguous; and with one baffle having its apex adjacent said inlet; and with the other baffle having its apex projected through and extending outwardly of the other end of said housing, outletting to atmosphere; and a plate-like permeable third baffle disposed between and across the open ends of the first and second baffles; the housing and first two baffles being of such a thickness to diameter ratio as to be extremely resistant to vibrations, as would be the case if they were of thin sheet material.
