    摘要: The present invention is an apparatus with detachable, interchangeable panels for varying acoustic and esthetic treatments or effects. Detachable, interchangeable panels are readily attached to and detached from a frame. By exchanging, combining, or removing panels, the absorptive character of the apparatus is altered. Selecting panel sets with more or less perforated surface area results in more absorptive or more reflective behavior, respectively. As such, the apparatus is easily altered to achieve specific gradations of absorption or diffusion. The unobtrusive structural components of the apparatus allow designs to be perforated directly into the panels without obstructions. Accordingly, the apparatus allows both visual and/or acoustic customization, and even exchange between the two. As a non-limiting example, the visual appearance of the panels is imprinted into the sonic character of the space, by the unique arrangements of perforations.

    摘要: An acoustic board having displaced and passably abutted multiple through-holes comprises an outer surface and an inner surface, in which the first through-holes formed from the outer surface toward the inner surface and the second through-holes formed from the inner surface toward the outer surface are displaced and passably abutted thereby conjunctively constituting acoustically absorptive micro-orifices. Herein at least some of the second through-holes have a cross-sectional area of greater than 1 mm2 and are displaced and passably abutted to at least some of the first through-holes, thereby collectively forming a plurality of acoustically absorptive micro-orifices having a cross-sectional area of smaller than 1 mm2, and, in comparison with the total area of the acoustic board, the opening rate for the sum of the cross-sectional areas of all such acoustically absorptive micro-orifices is less than 3%.
