Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of fans, and in particular to a fan blade structure and a fan using the same. Background Art

[0002] A ceiling fan is a fan fixedly installed on the ceiling. When working, the outer rotor motor on the ceiling fan drives the fan blades to rotate. The rotation of the fan blades drives air circulation to generate wind. Since the wind field generated by the ceiling fan is large and the wind is relatively soft, it is very popular among the public. In the application of ceiling fans, since the ceiling fans are completely exposed to the air, a large amount of dust will adhere to their surface after long-term use, which greatly affects the user experience.

[0003] To solve this problem, the prior art CN216812280U proposes a household detachable ceiling fan with high-strength fan blades. The fan utilizes a detachable structure to disassemble the fan blades, which is convenient for cleaning or replacing the fan blades. However, when the fan is in use, the fan blade angle is fixed, and the size of the wind field generated by the fan cannot be changed according to needs when it is no longer used, and the flexibility of use is low. At the same time, the above-mentioned ceiling fan only uses the elastic force of the spring to lock the fan blades. Since the fan blades rotate at high speed, they will generate a large centrifugal force when rotating. At the same time, the fan blades are inclined and will be subject to a certain lift. Relying solely on the spring to achieve locking, this connection method is not reliable, and the risk of the fan blades detaching is relatively high. To address the above problems, we provide a fan blade structure and a fan using the fan blade structure. Summary of the Invention

[0036] When the fan blade 6 needs to be removed, first slide the lever 10 toward the housing 1 so that the locking rod 19 is pulled out of the lock hole 21 to release the lock block 20, then press the L-shaped pressing rod 11 to disengage the lock block 20 from the lock groove 25, and then pull the plug 7 out of the plug hole 24. When installing, first push the lever 10 toward the housing 1 to slide so that the locking rod 19 is out of the lock groove 25, then press the L-shaped pressing rod 11 to retract the lock block 20 into the U-shaped groove 23, and then insert the plug 7 into the plug hole 24. After that, the L-shaped pressing rod 11 is released, and the locking block 20 pops out and is stuck in the locking groove 25 under the action of the spring.
