Abstract
An upright space divider panel having a rigid rectangular frame, and first and second thin sheetlike skins fixed to opposite sides of the frame and extending across the region defined therein. A honeycomb core structure is disposed within the frame and confined between the skins. The honeycomb core structure comprises a cellular honeycomb layer having a plurality of cells formed therein and extending across the width of the layer, so that opposite ends of the cells are closed by the skins. The first and second skins are identical and each have a plurality of openings formed therethrough. The openings in the first skin communicate with a first plurality of the cells for forming a first plurality of sound absorbing chambers which open outwardly through one side of the panel. The openings in the second skin communicate with a second plurality of the cells for forming a second plurality of sound absorbing chambers which open outwardly through the other side of the panel. The cells of the second plurality are different from the cells of the first plurality.
