Those skilled in the art will understand that this disclosure can be practiced without certain specific details. In some instances, methods, means, components, and circuits well known to those skilled in the art have not been described in detail in order to highlight the main points of this disclosure.

[0067] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the positional relationship between a noise reduction structure and other components in a fan, according to an exemplary embodiment. The noise reduction structure is used to reduce noise in the fan. Figure 1 Figure a is a cross-sectional view of the fan, Figure b is a schematic diagram of the noise reduction fins 1 and the shroud 2, and Figure c is a schematic diagram of the moving impeller 3 and the first-stage stationary blades 4. Figure 1 As shown, the noise reduction structure includes: at least two noise reduction fins 1; at least two noise reduction fins 1 are evenly distributed around the inner wall of the fan shroud 2, the fan shroud 2 is provided with a moving impeller 3 and a first-stage stationary blade 4, the noise reduction fins 1 surround the outer periphery of the moving impeller 3, and the at least two noise reduction fins 1 are used to reduce the noise caused by the air flowing in the cavity where the moving impeller 3 and the first-stage stationary blade 4 are located.

[0068] In this embodiment, the noise-reducing fins 1 are sheet-like structures, with at least two noise-reducing fins 1 evenly distributed around the inner wall of the fan shroud 2 facing the impeller 3. The impeller 3 and the first-stage stationary blades 4 are both located within the shroud 2, with the first-stage stationary blades 4 located on the outer periphery of the base where the impeller 3 is situated. The noise-reducing fins 1 are positioned opposite to the first-stage stationary blades 4. An impeller front cover is also provided outside the impeller 3, partially covering it. The noise-reducing fins 1 surround the outer periphery of the impeller 3; specifically, the noise-reducing fins 1 surround the outer periphery of the impeller front cover. The aforementioned noise-reducing structure reduces the fan blade frequency without sacrificing aerodynamic performance. Its mechanism is to eliminate the dynamic-static interference frequencies generated between the impeller 3 and the first-stage stationary blades 4. Without a noise reduction structure, the moving impeller 3 and the first-stage stationary blade 4 generate a dynamic-static interference frequency. With a noise reduction structure, the flow generated by the moving impeller 3 first interferes with the noise reduction fin 1. After the airflow passes through the noise reduction fin 1, it then interferes with the first-stage stationary blade 4, reducing the noise caused by the airflow in the cavity where the moving impeller and the first-stage stationary blade are located. Furthermore, by controlling the number of blades in the moving impeller 3, the noise reduction fin 1, and the first-stage stationary blade 4, the fan's order noise can be eliminated.

[0069] In an optional embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the inlet ends of at least two noise-reducing fins 1 are evenly distributed on the first circumference, and the outlet ends of at least two noise-reducing fins 1 are evenly distributed on the second circumference. The outer diameter D1 of the moving impeller 3 is smaller than the diameter D2 of the first circumference, and the diameter D2 of the first circumference is smaller than the diameter D3 of the second circumference.

[0070] In this embodiment, the diameter D2 of the first circumference is approximately 2mm-3mm larger than the outer diameter D1 of the impeller 3. Optionally, the diameter D2 of the first circumference can be set to 33mm, and the diameter D3 of the second circumference can be set to 40mm.

[0071] In an optional embodiment, the bottom edge of the noise-reducing fin 1 is connected to the inner wall of the shroud 2, and the edge of the noise-reducing fin 1 opposite to the bottom edge is an arc-shaped line with a radius of curvature of 6mm-7mm.

[0072] In this embodiment, viewed from the meridional plane of the noise-reducing fin 1, the edge opposite to the bottom edge of the noise-reducing fin 1 is an arc-shaped line with a radius of curvature of 6mm-7mm. Preferably, the radius of curvature of the arc-shaped line can be set to 6.5mm. The ratio of the distance between the center position of the arc-shaped line and the axis of the fan system to the distance between the center position of the arc-shaped line and the plane containing the foremost point of the first-stage stationary blade 4 is 12.7 / 3.4. The ratio of the distance between the top edge of the noise-reducing fin 1 and the plane containing the foremost point of the first-stage stationary blade 4 to the distance between the center position of the arc-shaped line and the plane containing the foremost point of the first-stage stationary blade 4 is 3.8 / 3.4.

[0073] In an optional embodiment, the angle between the tangent of the center line of the inlet end of the noise-reducing fin 1 and the tangent of the first circumference at the location of the inlet end of the noise-reducing fin 1 is the inlet mounting angle of the noise-reducing fin 1; the angle between the tangent of the center line of the outlet end of the noise-reducing fin 1 and the tangent of the second circumference at the location of the outlet end of the noise-reducing fin 1 is the outlet mounting angle of the noise-reducing fin 1; the angle between the radius of curvature of the inlet end of the noise-reducing fin 1 and the radius of curvature of the outlet end of the noise-reducing fin 1 is the wrap angle of the noise-reducing fin 1; when the noise-reducing fin 1 is in a preset position, the inlet mounting angle of the noise-reducing fin 1 is 31°, the outlet mounting angle of the noise-reducing fin 1 is 40°~45°, and the wrap angle of the noise-reducing fin 1 is 16°.

[0074] In this embodiment of the disclosure, such as Figure 2 As shown, the outlet installation angle of the impeller 3 blade is denoted as β1, the inlet installation angle of the noise-reducing fin 1 is denoted as β2, and the inlet installation angle of the noise-reducing fin 1 is denoted as β3. The aforementioned preset positions can be the initial positions of the noise-reducing fin 1, which can be understood as the position where the noise-reducing fin 1 can achieve the best noise reduction effect, i.e., the position where it eliminates the dynamic-static interference frequency generated between the impeller 3 and the first-stage stationary blade 4. It can also be understood as the position of the noise-reducing fin 1 when the fan motor is operating at high efficiency. The inlet installation angle β2 of the noise-reducing fin 1 needs to be 3° to 5° larger than the outlet installation angle β1 of the impeller 3 blade. Specifically, when the noise-reducing fin 1 is in the preset position, the inlet installation angle β2 of the noise-reducing fin 1 can be set to 31°, and the outlet installation angle β3 of the noise-reducing fin 1 can be set to 40° to 45°. The wrap angle of the noise-reducing fin 1... It is 16°.

[0075] In an optional embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the noise reduction structure also includes a servo motor 5, which is installed on the outer wall of the shroud 2. Each noise reduction fin 1 is connected to a corresponding servo motor 5. The servo motor 5 is connected to the bottom edge of the corresponding noise reduction fin 1 through a connecting shaft. The servo motor 5 is used to drive the corresponding noise reduction fin 1 to rotate around the connecting shaft.

[0076] In this embodiment, the servo motor 5 is connected to the bottom edge of the corresponding noise reduction fin 1 via a connecting shaft at the endpoint where the bottom edge of the noise reduction fin 1 connects to the opposite side of the bottom edge, and at the inlet end of the noise reduction fin 1. The servo motor 5 can drive the corresponding noise reduction fin 1 to rotate around the connecting shaft in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction.

[0077] In an optional embodiment, the connecting shaft passes through a connecting hole on the shroud 2, and a sealing ring is provided on the inner wall of the connecting hole. The outer side of the sealing ring fits against the inner wall of the connecting hole, and the inner side of the sealing ring fits against the connecting shaft.

[0078] In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the wind cover 2 is provided with a connecting hole for the connecting shaft to pass through. In order to prevent air leakage in the cavity where the moving impeller 3 and the first-stage stationary blade 4 are located, a sealing ring is provided on the inner wall of the connecting hole near the outside. By the outer side of the sealing ring fitting with the inner wall of the connecting hole and the inner side fitting with the connecting shaft, air leakage can be prevented.

[0079] In an optional embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the noise reduction structure also includes: a motor bracket 6 and a fixing screw 7; the fixing screw 7 is used to fix the motor bracket 6 to the outer wall of the fan cover 2, and the motor bracket 6 is used to fix the servo motor 5.

[0080] In this embodiment, the motor bracket 6 has a screw hole at each end for engaging the fixing screw 7. The motor bracket 6 has a motor mounting hole in the middle for engaging the servo motor 5. By passing the fixing screw 7 through the corresponding screw hole, the motor bracket 6 can be fixed to the outer wall of the fan cover 2. Then, the servo motor 5 can be installed in the motor mounting hole, thus enabling the assembly of the servo motor 5 and the fan cover 2.

[0081] In an optional embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, a motor protective cover 8 is also fitted over the fan cover 2 to protect the motor system. The servo motor 5, motor bracket 6, and fixing screws 7 are all located inside the motor protective cover 8.

[0082] In an optional embodiment, this disclosure provides a fan system including the above-described noise reduction structure.

[0083] In an optional embodiment, this disclosure provides a cleaning device including the above-described fan system. Optionally, the cleaning device may be a floor scrubber, etc.

[0084] Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram illustrating a noise reduction structure control method according to an exemplary embodiment. The method is applied to a device including the aforementioned noise reduction structure, which can be a cleaning device, such as a floor scrubber. The method includes the following:

[0085] Step S501: Obtain the operating current of the fan motor.

[0086] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the operating current of the fan motor can be detected by a current detection sensor.

[0087] Step S502: When the motor operating current is not zero, compare the motor operating current with the preset current threshold to obtain the motor status information.

[0088] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the preset current threshold includes a first current threshold and a second current threshold, wherein the first current threshold is less than the second current threshold. Specifically, the first current threshold can be defined as the current I corresponding to the low-flow-rate operating condition of the motor. min The second current threshold can be defined as the current I corresponding to the high flow rate operation of the motor. max .

[0089] The current I corresponding to the low flow rate of the motor min It can be calculated using the following formula (1):

[0090]

[0091] In equation (1), P e U is the rated power of the motor. e I is the rated voltage of the motor. min This refers to the current corresponding to the low-flow operating condition of the motor.

[0092] The current I corresponding to the high flow rate of the motor max It can be calculated using the following formula (2):

[0093]

[0094] In equation (2), P e U is the rated power of the motor. e I is the rated voltage of the motor. max This refers to the current corresponding to the high-flow operating conditions of the motor.

[0095] Step S503: Based on the motor status information, control the target noise reduction fin to rotate around the rotation axis by a target preset angle to reduce the noise caused by the airflow in the cavity where the moving impeller 3 and the first-stage stationary blade 4 are located. The target noise reduction fin is any one of at least two noise reduction fins.

[0096] In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the rotation direction of the target noise-reducing fin is shown in the schematic diagram below. Figure 6 As shown, the center of the first circle containing the inlet ends of at least two noise-reducing fins 1 is denoted as O1, and the inlet end of the target noise-reducing fin is denoted as O2. The angle θ between the polar axis O2X of the polar coordinate system and the line segment O1O2 is 118°. The rotation axis is the connecting axis connecting the target noise-reducing fin and the corresponding servo motor. The rotation angle corresponding to the target noise-reducing fin rotating about the rotation axis towards the moving impeller (i.e., the outlet end of the target noise-reducing fin moving towards the moving impeller) is denoted as θ1, which is a negative value in the above polar coordinates. The rotation angle corresponding to the target noise-reducing fin rotating about the rotation axis away from the moving impeller (i.e., the outlet end of the target noise-reducing fin moving away from the moving impeller) is denoted as θ2, which is a positive value in the above polar coordinates.

[0097] As can be seen from the above, in this embodiment of the present disclosure, by obtaining the motor operating current of the fan and controlling the target noise reduction fins to rotate around the rotation axis by a target preset angle based on different motor operating currents, the position of the noise reduction fins can be adapted to the current motor operating conditions, so that the noise reduction fins can achieve the best noise reduction effect under the current motor operating conditions, and reduce the noise caused by the air flowing in the cavity where the moving impeller and the first-stage stationary blades are located.

[0098] In this embodiment of the disclosure, based on motor status information, controlling the target noise reduction fins to rotate around the rotation axis by a preset angle includes:

[0099] Step S5031: When the motor status information indicates that the motor operating current is less than the first current threshold, control the target noise reduction fins to rotate around the rotation axis towards the moving impeller by a first preset angle.

[0100] In this embodiment of the present disclosure, when the motor status information indicates that the motor operating current is less than a first current threshold, the controller transmits a corresponding wireless signal to drive the servo motor, so that the servo motor drives the target noise reduction fins to rotate around the rotation axis towards the moving impeller by a first preset angle. Optionally, the first preset angle θ1 is -20° to -10°.

[0101] Step S5032: When the motor status information indicates that the motor operating current is greater than the second current threshold, control the target noise reduction fins to rotate around the rotation axis away from the moving impeller by a second preset angle.

[0102] In this embodiment of the present disclosure, when the motor status information indicates that the motor operating current is greater than a second current threshold, the controller transmits a corresponding wireless signal to drive the servo motor, so that the servo motor drives the target noise reduction fins to rotate around the rotation axis away from the impeller by a second preset angle. Optionally, the second preset angle θ2 is taken as 10° to 20°.

[0103] Step S5033: When the motor status information indicates that the motor operating current is greater than the first current threshold and less than the second current threshold, control the target noise reduction fin to rotate in any direction around the rotation axis by a third preset angle. The first preset angle, the second preset angle and the third preset angle are all target preset angles. The absolute value of the third preset angle is less than the absolute value of the first preset angle or the second preset angle.

[0104] In this embodiment of the disclosure, when the motor status information indicates that the motor operating current is greater than a first current threshold and less than a second current threshold, the controller transmits a corresponding wireless signal to drive the servo motor, so that the servo motor drives the target noise-reducing fins to rotate in any direction around the rotation axis by a third preset angle. Optionally, the third preset angle θ3 is -5° to 5°.

[0105] Based on the above, in this embodiment of the present disclosure, the target noise-reducing fins are controlled to rotate around the rotation axis at different angles according to the relationship between the motor operating current and the first current threshold and the second current threshold. This allows the position of the noise-reducing fins to be adapted to the current motor operating conditions, so that the noise-reducing fins can achieve the best noise reduction effect under the current motor operating conditions, and reduce the noise caused by the airflow in the cavity where the moving impeller and the first-stage stationary blades are located.

[0106] In an optional embodiment, the above method further includes:

[0107] When the motor operating current is zero, at least two noise-reducing fins maintain their current position.

[0108] In this embodiment of the disclosure, when the motor operating current is zero, it indicates that the motor is not in operation. At this time, at least two noise reduction fins remain stationary and are maintained in a preset position.

[0109] In an optional embodiment, the above method can be implemented by a control circuit, the circuit control schematic of which is shown below. Figure 7As shown, the motor operating current is obtained through a motor current detection sensor. The current detection sensor is connected to the main control circuit and is used to transmit the motor operating current to the main control circuit. When the motor operating current is not zero, the main control circuit compares the motor operating current with a preset current threshold to obtain motor status information. The main control circuit is also connected to a servo motor control circuit and is used to transmit the motor status information to the servo motor control circuit. The servo motor control circuit drives the servo motor to rotate based on the motor status information. The servo motor is connected to the target noise reduction fin and is used to drive the target noise reduction fin to rotate around the rotation axis.

[0110] The main control circuit includes a feedback circuit, a judgment circuit, and a signal transmission unit. The input of the feedback circuit is connected to a current detection sensor, the output of the feedback circuit is connected to the input of the judgment circuit, the output of the judgment circuit is connected to the input of the signal transmission unit, and the output of the signal transmission unit is connected to the servo motor control circuit. The feedback circuit receives and detects the motor operating current and transmits it to the judgment circuit when the motor operating current is not zero. The judgment circuit compares the motor operating current with a preset current threshold to obtain motor status information and transmits it to the signal transmission unit. The signal transmission unit transmits the motor status information to the servo motor control circuit.

[0111] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the main control circuit further includes an adjustment loop, which consists of potentiometers that are zeroed before use to serve as a reference for the aforementioned sensor.

[0112] As can be seen from the above, the noise reduction structure can be flexibly controlled by the connection and cooperation between different circuits in the control circuit in the embodiments of this disclosure.

[0113] In one specific implementation, the flowchart of the above control method is as follows: Figure 8 As shown, the motor operating current I is obtained through a current detection sensor. When the motor operating current I is 0, control ends; when the motor operating current I is not 0, it is determined whether the motor operating current I is greater than a second current threshold I. max When the motor operating current I is greater than the second current threshold I... max In this case, the controller transmits the corresponding wireless signal to the servo motor control circuit, and the servo motor drives the corresponding noise-reducing fins to rotate by an angle θ2; when the motor operating current I is less than the second current threshold I... max In this case, determine whether the motor operating current I is less than the first current threshold I. min When the motor operating current I is less than the first current threshold I... minIn this case, the controller transmits the corresponding wireless signal to the servo motor control circuit, and the servo motor drives the corresponding noise-reducing fins to rotate by an angle θ1; when the motor operating current I is not less than the first current threshold I... min In this case, the controller transmits the corresponding wireless signal to the servo motor control circuit, and the servo motor drives the corresponding noise reduction fins to rotate by an angle of θ3.
