Diseño y construcción de un prototipo de cámara de insonorización para compresores utilizados en centros odontológicos.

Abstract

This titration project aims to solve a very common problem in dental clinics that is the noise generated by compressors, which ranges from 95 dB to 85 dB, which makes the exposure time low and both patients and dentists suffer hearing damage, this project shows the design of a soundproof box to solve this problem. The design consists of manufacturing a box coated with a material capable of reducing the sound pressure level to increase the exposure time of dentists and making their work more pleasant, for which a 3 hp compressor is taken as reference that is the most common in dental clinics, you have the approximate measures to design the box and perform the respective calculations of the structure , obtaining the safety factors that support all the weight of the parts of the mobile box, it is necessary to place hot air extraction fans inside the box to prevent the compressor from having high working temperatures, these fans will automatically turn on when the compressor starts its work, and to conclude it is necessary to select the appropriate insulator and be able to reduce the pressure level, these fans will automatically turn on when the compressor starts its work, and to conclude it is necessary to select the appropriate insulator and be able to reduce the pressure level , for this purpose, tests are done before and after the insulation box is placed, which shows that the noise reduction is approximately 20% so that the exposure time increases with reference to the initial.
