Abstract:
The present invention provides an apparatus for reducing road noise, which includes pipe-shaped bodies each having a hollow formed in the corresponding body to pass through a part of one end and a part of the other end of the body, a fitting groove formed toward an inside of the one end, a shim protruding outward from the other end, and a communication portion formed at a side portion of the body to allow the hollow to communicate with the outside, in which the plurality of bodies is connected to each other. Also, the present invention also provides a method of installing an apparatus for reducing road noise, the method including a buried groove forming step of forming a plurality of buried grooves in a direction in which vehicles travel on a road surface at regular intervals, an arranging step of seating the apparatuses on the buried grooves such that distal ends of the communication portions are lower than the road surface, and seating the plurality of bodies on the buried grooves, respectively, while connecting the bodies to each other, an injecting step of inserting fillers into the buried grooves of the arranging step so that the apparatuses for reducing road noise are buried in the buried grooves, and a hardening step of hardening the fillers.

Claim (Index 4):
The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein an interval between the communication portions, which are configured by connecting the plurality of bodies to each other, is 40\u00b110 mm.
