Metal panel assembly

摘要: A metal panel assembly (10, 110) that may be used in a number of different applications, particularly those are concerned with improved stiffness and/or reduced vibration and noise. According to an exemplary embodiment, the has multi-layer or sandwich construction includes body layer (12, 112), sound damping adhesive (14, 114), outer (16, 116). The is bonded via improves reduces vibrations assembly. include contact sections (42, 142) confront through layer, as well raised (44, 144) spaced from increase otherwise improve In one (44) resemble channels generally arranged column-like pattern; another (144) ribs grid-like pattern.
