Claims
- 1. In a high speed paper converting machine vacuum cylinder wherein a control head is attached at its control surface directly to the end face of a vacuum cylinder or inserted into the vacuum cylinder with an accurate fit and the canal for atmospheric pressure equalization is open on the control surface of the control head toward the interior of the vacuum cylinder, the improvement comprising:
- the interior of said vacuum cylinder being subdivided as a reflection sound attenuator into a plurality of annular attenuation chambers interconnected by offset tubes which overlap each other in the projection, and openings in the side of the vacuum cylinder opposite the control head connecting the last attenuation chamber to the atmosphere,
- so as to suppress the noise resulting from the fresh air inflow during atmospheric pressure equalization at the completion of the vacuum cycle of the vacuum cylinder.
- 2. The high speed paper converting machine vacuum cylinder as defined in claim 1, which further comprises sound absorption material covering the interior surfaces of said vacuum cylinder.
