The outer wall of the first scatterer 21 is installed perpendicularly to one end of the first connecting portion 31 .

[0041] Now take an elastic beam 30 as an example: the first scatterer 21 has a first outer wall and a second outer wall, the frame 10 has a first inner wall corresponding to the first outer wall and a second inner wall corresponding to the second outer wall, the first outer wall is parallel to the first inner wall, and the first outer wall is perpendicular to the second inner wall, one end of the first connecting portion 31 of the elastic beam 30 is perpendicularly installed to the first outer wall, and the other end is perpendicularly installed to one end of the second connecting portion 32, the other end of the second connecting portion 32 is perpendicularly installed to the second inner wall, the second connecting portion 32 is parallel to the first inner wall, and there is a gap between the second connecting portion 32 and the first inner wall, and the remaining three elastic beams 30 are installed in coordination with the outer wall of the first scatterer 21 and the inner wall of the frame 10 in this way.

[0044] In this embodiment, the specific dimensions of each component of the phononic crystal are as follows: the first side plate 11, the second side plate 12, the third side plate 13 and the fourth side plate 14 are all vertically arranged rectangular parallelepipeds, the length of the first side plate 11, the second side plate 12, the third side plate 13 and the fourth side plate 14 are all 10 mm, the width is 0.5 mm, and the height is 2.5 mm, and the inner cross-sectional area of ​​the frame 10 is 81 mm 2 The first connecting portion 31 and the second connecting portion 32 of each elastic beam 30 are both rectangular parallelepipeds, the length of the first connecting portion 31 is 1.5, the width is 1mm, and the height is 2.5mm, and the length of the second connecting portion 32 is 5mm, the width is 1mm, and the height is 2.5mm; the first scatterer 21 and the second scatterer 22 are both square columns, the side length of the first scatterer 21 is 2.5mm, the height is 4mm, and the cross-sectional area S1 of the first scatterer 21 is 6.25mm 2 The side length of the second scatterer 22 is 5 mm, the height is 2 mm, and the cross-sectional area S2 of the second scatterer 22 is 25 mm. 2 .

[0045] Ginseng Figure 3 As shown in Figure 2, the band gap of the phononic crystal structure is calculated by the finite element method. Figure 3 The horizontal axis represents the value of the simplified wave vector K, and the vertical axis represents the frequency / Hz. Figure 3 It can be seen that the phononic crystal in this embodiment has two complete band gaps, whose ranges are 2026.8Hz-2894.4Hz and 6969.7Hz-7097.7Hz respectively. These two band gaps can meet the requirements of attenuating the vibration generated during the operation of the fan, and also have good application prospects in suppressing vibration and noise in other situations.

[0046] Ginseng Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the transmission spectrum of a finite number of units is calculated to verify the vibration reduction characteristics of the phononic crystal. Figure 4 The horizontal axis represents the frequency / Hz, and the vertical axis represents the transmission coefficient / dB. Figure 5 From the transmission spectrum, we can see that the phononic crystal has obvious attenuation in the two complete band gap ranges. In addition, due to the existence of incomplete band gaps, the phononic crystal can also suppress vibrations in other ranges.

[0047] Ginseng Figure 5As shown, the present invention also discloses a vibration-reducing and noise-reducing fan, comprising a shell 100, a cavity located in the shell 100, fan blades 200 installed in the cavity, and an air inlet 101 and an air outlet 102 opened on the shell. A plurality of array-distributed phononic crystals are installed on the shell 100 located at the air outlet 102. The plurality of array-distributed phononic crystals form a phononic crystal group 300. The scatterers are arranged toward the cavity in the shell 100. Specifically, the first scatterer 21 is arranged toward the outside of the cavity in the shell 100, and the second scatterer 22 is arranged toward the inside of the cavity in the shell 100.

[0048] Ginseng Figure 5 Combined with Figure 6 As shown, the two opposite side walls of the phononic crystal group 300 are fixed to the inner side walls of the air outlet of the shell 100, and the other two opposite side walls are set with a gap to the inner side walls of the air outlet 102 of the shell 100. The cross-section of the phononic crystal group 300 is rectangular, and the two opposite side walls of the phononic crystal group 300 include two side walls with short lengths and two side walls with long lengths. Preferably, the two opposite side walls of the phononic crystal group 300 fixed to the inner side walls of the air outlet of the shell 100 are two side walls with short lengths. By setting a gap between the side walls of the phononic crystal group 300 and the inner side walls of the air outlet 102 of the shell 100, the vibration space of the phononic crystal group 300 can be increased while increasing the air volume, thereby further improving the effect of attenuating fan noise.

[0049] It can be seen from the above technical solutions that the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0050] The phononic crystal in the present invention forms a resonant structure through a frame, an elastic beam and a scatterer, thereby being able to effectively meet the requirement of attenuating vibrations, and also has good application prospects for suppressing vibrations and noises in other situations.

[0051] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description, and it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the invention. Any reference numeral in a claim should not be considered as limiting the claim to which it relates.
