Abstract
A sound insulation part for surfaces with known source-sink distribution, in particular in passenger spaces of motor vehicles, is provided, which is designed as a mass-spring system with discontinuities incorporated therein for the purpose of converting sources into sinks. In order to achieve a particularly effective sound insulation with low mass or light weight, the sound insulation part contains, over limited parts of its surface, closed cells (1) embedded in the spring (foam 3) and encased in coils (2). These cells (1) can be directed towards the heavy layer (4) or the panel (8) which the part adjoins, or can be wholly or partly in the intermediate region. The cells (1) can be gas- or air-filled. The foils (2) advantageously have masses of about 25 to 150 g/m.sup.2 of surface.
