Abstract
To effectively reduce a low-frequency noise resulting from vibration of a peripheral wall of a ventilation path. The present invention provides a ventilation path with a soundproof structure including a ventilation path that includes an open end and a soundproof structure against a sound emitted from the ventilation path. The soundproof structure includes a vibration suppression portion that is provided on a surface of a peripheral wall surrounding the ventilation path, and assuming that m and n are natural numbers of 4 or less, λ is a wavelength of a sound of which a frequency coincides with an m-th natural frequency of the peripheral wall alone, and L1 is a distance from the open end on a virtual line extending through a central position of a cross section of each portion of the ventilation path, the cross section intersecting a direction in which the ventilation path extends, the vibration suppression portion is present in an area at which a distance L1 is equal to or greater than (4n−3)/×λ/8 and equal to or smaller than (4n−1)×λ/8.
