Patent attributes
Provided are a soundproof structure and a soundproof unit that can be reduced in size and thickness in the soundproof structure using Helmholtz resonance. The soundproof structure that includes a housing forming a space therein and having a through hole that allows the space to communicate with an outside, and generates Helmholtz resonance by the space and the through hole, the soundproof structure includes a rear surface plate disposed at a position overlapping the through hole on the space side as viewed from a penetrating direction of the through hole, in which assuming that a diameter of the through hole is Φ and a distance from the rear surface plate to an opening surface of the through hole on the space side is d, d≤Φ is satisfied and d≤6 mm is satisfied.
