[0030] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, a folding fan comprises a fan head 1, a flip frame 2, a telescopic rod 3 and a base 4, wherein a mesh cover 27 is provided at the front end of the fan head 1, the fan head 1 is arranged on the top of the flip frame 2 and can be rotated left and right by a rotating assembly, the bottom of the flip frame 2 is arranged on the top of the telescopic rod 3 and can be rotated by a first limit rotation mechanism, the bottom of the telescopic rod 3 is arranged on the rear end of the base 4 and can be rotated by a lockable rotation mechanism, the middle part of the flip frame 2 is bent toward the front end to form a first folding angle 201 for avoiding the rotation of the fan head 1; when folding, the fan head 1 is rotated to the first folding angle 201 by the rotating assembly, the telescopic rod 3 is contracted and the lockable rotation mechanism is unlocked to make the telescopic rod 3 flip forward and overlap on the base 4, the flip frame 2 flips backward by the first limit rotation mechanism and makes the mesh cover 27 of the fan head 1 overlap on the telescopic rod 3. The folding fan of the present invention has a simple and reasonable structure, is easy to assemble, and is easy to store and store when the seasons change. It is convenient for users to use, reduces the cumbersome assembly process, is simple and quick to operate, and has a good user experience. The first limit rotation mechanism cooperates with the lockable rotation mechanism when the folding fan of the present invention is assembled and used, respectively limiting the fan head 1 and the flip frame 2 at the top of the telescopic rod 3 from continuing to flip downward due to their own weight, and the telescopic rod 3 is flipped toward the front end of the base 4 due to the weight of the fan head 1 and the flip frame 2, thereby avoiding the problem that the folding structure of the existing folding fan is prone to excessive flipping due to the excessive weight of the fan head 1 and the flip angle being out of the normal use state, providing sufficient structural positioning strength and strong supporting force, and cooperating with the first folding angle 201 bent forward at the middle part of the flip frame 2 to make the fan head The center of gravity of 1 is at the center of the base 4, which effectively avoids the problem of unstable operation of the fan head 1 due to excessive rotation of the telescopic rod 3 and the flip frame 2 during assembly and use, and the rotating component can also realize the left and right shaking function of the fan head 1. When folded, the rotating component rotates in coordination with the first folding angle 201, so that the mesh cover 27 of the folded fan head 1 is stacked on the top of the telescopic rod 3. In order to improve the torsional strength of the telescopic rod 3 during extension and extension, and to facilitate folding and storage, the cross-section of the telescopic rod 3 is approximately rectangular, and the wider two sides are respectively opposite to the mesh cover 27 of the fan head 1 and the base 4. Compared with the existing folding fan, after folding, the mesh cover 27 of the fan head 1 faces upward and the back of the fan head 1 is stacked on the telescopic rod 3. The folded state is more stable, more storage space is saved, and packaging materials are further saved and transportation is convenient.
[0031] like Figures 3 to 6As shown, in order to facilitate the control of the fan head 1 by the rotating assembly to take into account the rotation in the folded state and the use state respectively, the rotating assembly includes a rotating seat 5, a motor 6, a driving gear 7 and a fixed gear 8. In an embodiment of the present invention, the back of the fan head 1 can be hinged on the rotating seat 5 so as to be adjustable up and down, and is wrapped with a rear shell 9. The bottom of the rotating seat 5 is provided with a fixed gear 8 which is rotated by a rotating column 501. The bottom of the fixed gear 8 is provided with an insertion cylinder 801. The top of the flip frame 2 is provided with an insertion hole 202, and the insertion cylinder 801 is tightly embedded in the insertion hole 202. The rotating seat 5 is provided with a motor 6. The output shaft 601 of the motor 6 is driven and connected to the driving gear 7 meshing with the fixed gear 8. The rotating column 501 is integrally formed with a wire-passing shaft 10, the bottom of which passes through the insertion cylinder 801 and connects the top of the rotating seat 5 and the inside of the flip frame 2. The bottom of the wire-passing shaft 10 is concavely provided with a card groove 1001, and a clamping ring 11 with a top surface abutting the bottom surface of the insertion cylinder 801 is clamped in the card groove. Thus, the fixed gear 8 is fixed on the top of the flip frame 2 by means of the insertion tube 801. The cooperation between the rotating column 501 at the bottom of the rotating seat 5 and the fixed gear 8 and the cooperation between the wire-passing shaft 10 and the insertion tube 801 enable the rotating base 4 to be arranged on the fixed gear 8 and rotate around the axis of the fixed gear 8 as the central axis. The retaining ring 11 clamped in the groove 1001 at the bottom of the wire-passing shaft 10 abuts against the bottom surface of the insertion tube 801 to effectively prevent the fan head 1 from falling on the flip frame 2, thereby improving the safety performance. At the same time, the power line connected to the fan head 1 and the motor 6 is laid in the wire-passing shaft 10. When the fan head 1 rotates through the fan control of the present application, the motor 6 on the rotating seat 5 drives the driving gear 7 to rotate. Since the driving gear 7 is meshed and connected with the fixed gear 8, the rotating seat 5 finally drives the fan head 1 to rotate to a set angle around the axis of the fixed gear 8. In order to increase the connection strength between the insertion cylinder 801 and the insertion hole 202 and avoid the failure of the fan head 1 to rotate out of place due to loose connection between the insertion cylinder 801 and the insertion hole 202, the outer wall of the insertion cylinder 801 is circumferentially provided with a plurality of anti-skid ribs 802, and the inner wall of the insertion hole 202 is circumferentially provided with a plurality of clips 203 that are snap-fitted with the anti-skid ribs 802. The anti-skid ribs 802 cooperate with the clips 203 so that the fan head 1 can be accurately rotated to any angle within the rotation range when the rotating component is rotated, thereby enhancing its stability and accuracy.
[0032] like Figure 3 and 4As shown, since the present application is a large folding fan, the fan head 1 is heavy. When the fan head 1 is driven to rotate to an accurate angle, the rotation speed of the driving gear 7 driving the fixed gear 8 needs to be reduced and its output torque needs to be increased. The rotating seat 5 is provided with a reduction gear 12 that rotates between the driving gear 7 and the fixed gear 8. The reduction gear 12 includes a large tooth portion 1201 meshed with the driving gear 7 at the top and a small tooth portion 1202 meshed with the fixed gear 8 at the bottom. The diameter of the large tooth portion 1201 is larger than the diameter of the driving gear 7, and the diameter of the small tooth portion 1202 is smaller than the diameter of the fixed gear 8. Thus, the output speed of the driving gear 7 is reduced and the output torque of the driving gear 7 is increased by the reduction gear 12, so as to realize the accurate start and stop of the driving fan head 1.
[0033] like Figures 2 to 6 As shown, in order to limit the rotation angle of the fan head 1 and prevent the fan head 1 from swinging during use or excessive rotation when folded and stored, the rotating assembly also includes a rotation limiting mechanism for limiting the rotation angle of the rotating seat 5 to -60°~180°. The rotation limiting mechanism includes a rotating block 502 provided at the front end of the rotating column 501, a first limiting block 803 provided in the fixed gear 8 and cooperating with the rotating block 502 to limit the rotation of the rotating seat 5 to an angle of -60°, and a second limiting block 804 cooperating with the rotating block 502 to limit the rotation of the rotating seat 5 to an angle of 180°, so that the first limiting block 803 cooperates with the rotating block 502 to allow the fan head 1 to swing to one side only 60°, and can only rotate 180° when folded and stored so that the front of the fan head 1 is in close contact with the telescopic rod 3.
[0034] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the first limited rotation mechanism includes a first hinge column 3014, a support arm 204, a limiting groove 205 and a first hinge shaft 22. The first hinge column 3014 is connected to the top rear end of the telescopic rod 3. The first hinge shaft 22 is fixed to the first hinge column 3014 by bolts. A support arm 204 extends from the bottom of the flip frame 2 toward the rear end. The end of the support arm 204 is sleeved on the first hinge shaft 22 and the bottom surface of the support arm 204 rotates to abut the top of the telescopic rod 3. The bottom of the support arm 204 corresponds to the position of the first hinge column 3014 and is also provided with a limiting groove 205 for accommodating the first hinge column 3014. The bottom of the groove rotates to abut the front end surface of the first hinge column 3014. Therefore, when the folding fan of the present application is assembled in the stored folded state and the flip frame 2 is rotated, the bottom surface of the support arm 204 cooperates with the top surface of the telescopic rod 3 to limit the rotation angle of the flip frame 2, so that the rotating assembly at the top of the flip frame 2 and the rotation axis of the fan head 1 are perpendicular to the ground, and the first hinge column 3014 cooperates with the limiting groove 205 that accommodates the first hinge column 3014, effectively improving the torsional strength between the flip frame 2 and the top of the telescopic rod 3, and also serves to limit the rotation angle of the flip frame 2.
[0035] like Figure 1 , Figures 7 to 10 As shown, in order to facilitate the user to manually rotate and lock or unlock the foldable telescopic rod 3 and the base 4, the lockable rotation mechanism includes a second limit rotation mechanism and a locking mechanism, the second limit rotation mechanism includes a second hinge column 401, a hinge bottom cover 303 and a second hinge shaft 23, the second hinge column 401 is connected to the rear end of the base 4, the hinge bottom cover 303 is plugged and connected to the bottom of the telescopic rod 3 and a hinge groove 3031 for accommodating the second hinge column 401 is recessed at its front end, the second hinge shaft 23 is penetrated in the hinge bottom cover 303 and the second hinge column 401 on both sides of the hinge groove 3031, and the hinge bottom cover 303 is inserted into the bottom of the telescopic rod 3 and the hinge bottom cover 303 is inserted into the bottom of the telescopic rod 3 and the hinge groove 3031 is recessed at the front end of the hinge bottom cover 303 and the second hinge column 401. The bottom of the bottom cover 303 is rotated to abut the top surface of the base 4; the locking mechanism includes a T-shaped locking bolt 24 and a locking nut 25, the T-shaped locking bolt 24 is rotatably arranged at the bottom rear end of the base 4 and its locking end 2401 passes through the base 4 from bottom to top, and the rear end of the bottom of the base 4 is recessed with an avoidance groove to form a rotation space for the torsional end of the T-shaped locking bolt 24, and the locking nut 25 is arranged in the hinged bottom cover 303 at a position corresponding to the locking end 2401 of the T-shaped locking bolt 24, and the bottom of the hinged bottom cover 303 is provided with a locking hole for the locking end 2401 to pass through and be screwed into the locking bolt. Therefore, when it is necessary to rotate and lock the telescopic rod 3, the telescopic rod 3 is rotated until the bottom of the hinged bottom cover 303 abuts the top surface of the base 4, and the T-shaped locking bolt 24 is twisted in the avoidance groove so that the locking end 2401 is screwed and locked with the locking nut 25 provided in the hinged bottom cover 303, thereby completing the locking of the telescopic rod 3. When it is necessary to fold and store it, the T-shaped locking bolt 24 is loosened so that the locking end 2401 is disengaged from the locking nut 25 and the retracted telescopic rod 3 is folded to contact the top surface of the chassis, which is convenient and quick.
[0036] like Figure 7 and Fig. 9As shown, in order to facilitate the telescopic locking of the telescopic rod 3 and prevent the weight of the fan head 1 from causing the telescopic rod 3 to shrink during use and affect the user experience, the telescopic rod 3 of the first embodiment of the present invention includes an upper tube 301, a lower tube 302 and a telescopic locking mechanism. The upper tube 301 is slidably connected to the lower tube 302. The telescopic locking mechanism includes a locking sleeve 13, a locking button 14, a button spring 15 and a limiting sleeve 16. The locking sleeve 13 is inserted into the bottom of the upper tube 301 and a limiting protrusion 1302 is radially extended outward from the bottom thereof to abut against the inner wall of the lower tube 302. A button groove 13 is provided on one side of the locking sleeve 13 01, a guide hole 3011 is provided at a position of the upper tube 301 corresponding to the button groove 1301, the locking button 14 is slidably arranged in the button groove 1301 and the guide hole 3011, the button spring 15 abuts between the bottom of the locking button 14 and the bottom of the button groove 1301 and makes the top of the sliding button abut against the inner wall of the lower tube 302, and a locking hole 3021 that matches and exposes the top of the sliding button is provided at the position of the top of the lower tube 302 corresponding to the guide hole 3011, the limiting sleeve 16 is connected to the top of the lower tube 302 and its top protrudes radially inward to have a limiting ring portion 1601 abutting against the outer wall of the upper tube 301. When the fan is folded, the telescopic rod 3 is in a retracted state, and the elastic force of the button spring 15 causes the locking button 14 to abut against the inner wall of the upper tube 301 along the button groove 1301 and the guide hole 3011, until the upper tube 301 is gradually pulled out until the locking hole 3021 is aligned with the guide hole 3011, and the locking button 14 is pushed by the button spring 15 to be stuck in the locking hole 3021, so that the telescopic rod 3 is in a locked state, preventing the telescopic rod 3 from being retracted by external force. When it is necessary to fold and store again, the exposed locking button 14 is pressed to overcome the elastic force of the button spring 15 and move toward the button groove 1301. The locking button 14 is disengaged from the locking hole 3021, and the upper tube 301 can be slid and retracted into the lower tube 302 again, which is convenient and quick. At the same time, the limiting protrusion 1302 of the locking sleeve 13 cooperates with the limiting ring 1601 of the limiting sleeve 16 to effectively prevent the upper tube 301 from being accidentally pulled out of the lower tube 302 and causing dislocation due to excessive force. The abutment between the limiting protrusion 1302 and the inner wall of the lower tube 302 cooperates with the abutment between the limiting ring 1601 and the outer wall of the upper tube 301, so that the shaking caused by the gap between the upper tube 301 and the lower tube 302 when they are telescopically slid is prevented, so that the structure is more stable.
