Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of computer accessories technology, specifically an integrated foldable PC computer fan. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing thinness and high performance of electronic devices, portable computing devices such as laptops and tablets have become core tools for daily office work, study, and entertainment. However, when these devices operate under high loads for extended periods (such as gaming, video rendering, and multitasking), their internal hardware (such as the CPU and GPU) generates a significant amount of heat. If heat dissipation is not timely, it can lead to performance degradation (such as CPU throttling), accelerated hardware aging, or even malfunction. Therefore, auxiliary cooling devices (such as computer fans) have become important accessories for users to improve device stability and lifespan.

[0003] In the field of computer fans, foldable designs also have enormous development potential. However, there are relatively few foldable computer fan products on the market at present, and most of them suffer from problems such as complex structure, poor stability, and inadequate heat dissipation. Although some products have achieved folding functionality, their size remains large after folding, failing to meet users' pursuit of ultimate portability. To address this issue, the inventors have proposed an integrated foldable PC fan. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the shortcomings of the aforementioned technologies, this invention provides an integrated foldable PC computer fan.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: an integrated foldable PC computer fan, comprising a fan assembly, a folding assembly, a limiting assembly, and a splicing assembly. The folding assembly is disposed on the inner sidewall of the fan assembly to facilitate folding of the fan assembly. The limiting assembly is disposed on the inner sidewall of the fan assembly to limit the movement of the components of the fan assembly. The splicing assembly is disposed at one end of the fan assembly to facilitate splicing multiple fan assemblies. The folding assembly includes a folding groove and a movable block. The folding groove is formed on the inner sidewall of the fan assembly. The movable block is disposed on the inner sidewall of the fan assembly to facilitate driving the fan assembly to move. The inner sidewall of the movable block is provided with a folding block for folding, facilitating the folding of the fan assembly.

[0006] As further explained, the limiting component includes a limiting groove and a limiting post. The limiting groove is provided on the inner side wall of the fan assembly. Multiple limiting grooves are provided and spaced apart. The limiting post is provided on the inner side wall of the fan assembly and connected to the limiting groove, so as to limit the fan assembly.

[0007] As a further explanation, it also includes a limiting block and a limiting ring. The limiting ring is disposed on the inner side wall of the fan assembly, and the limiting block is disposed on the inner side wall of the fan assembly. Multiple limiting blocks are provided and spaced apart to facilitate limiting the fan assembly.

[0008] As further explained, the splicing component includes splicing slots, which are formed at one end of the fan component, and multiple splicing slots are provided and spaced apart.

[0009] As a further explanation, the inner wall of the splicing slot is provided with splicing blocks for splicing fan assemblies, and there are multiple splicing blocks arranged at intervals.

[0010] As further explained, the fan assembly includes an upper cover and a fan frame. The upper cover is disposed on the upper surface of the fan frame. The folding groove is located on the inner sidewall of the upper cover. The limiting groove is located on the inner sidewall of the fan frame. The limiting post is located on the inner sidewall of the upper cover. The limiting ring is located on the inner sidewall of the fan frame. The limiting block is located on the inner sidewall of the fan frame. The splicing groove is located at one end of the fan frame.

[0011] As a further explanation, the inner sidewall of the fan frame is provided with a support base for supporting the fan, and one end of the support base is provided with a bracket, and multiple brackets are provided and spaced apart.

[0012] As a further explanation, the inner sidewall of the fan frame is provided with an assembly cavity for mounting the fan.

[0013] In summary, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: The present invention provides an integrated foldable PC computer fan, which adopts an integrated foldable design. Through the cooperation of the folding slot and the movable block in the folding component, combined with the rotation structure of the folding block, the fan component (such as the top cover and the fan frame) can be quickly folded to a smaller volume. The overall size is significantly reduced after folding, which solves the pain point that traditional foldable fans are still large in size after folding. It is easier to store in a backpack or computer bag and is perfectly adapted to the mobile use scenarios of portable devices such as laptops and tablets. Attached Figure Description

[0018] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0019] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the present invention discloses an integrated foldable PC computer fan, comprising a fan assembly, a folding assembly, a limiting assembly, and a splicing assembly. The folding assembly is disposed on the inner side wall of the fan assembly to facilitate folding of the fan assembly. The limiting assembly is disposed on the inner side wall of the fan assembly to limit the components of the fan assembly. The splicing assembly is disposed at one end of the fan assembly to facilitate splicing multiple fan assemblies. The folding assembly includes a folding groove 21 and a movable block 22. The folding groove 21 is formed on the inner side wall of the fan assembly, and the movable block 22 is disposed on the inner side wall of the fan assembly to facilitate driving the fan assembly to move. The inner side wall of the movable block 22 is provided with a folding block 23 for folding, which facilitates folding of the fan assembly.

[0020] Specifically, the folding function of the fan assembly (composed of the upper cover 11 and the fan frame 12) is achieved through a folding mechanism. The user rotates the movable block 22 located on the inner wall of the fan frame 12, causing the inner folding block 23 to move along the folding groove 21 on the inner wall of the fan frame 12. The connection point between the folding block 23 and the upper cover 11 and fan frame 12 forms a rotation axis, driving the upper cover 11 and fan frame 12 to rotate relative to each other, thus completing the folding action of the fan body. After folding, the device size is significantly reduced, meeting the demand for extreme portability.

[0021] One end of the fan frame 12 is equipped with a magnet (not shown), which makes it easy to connect multiple fans together by magnetic attraction or splicing, avoiding the situation of multiple fans falling apart during use and improving practicality.

[0022] The limiting component includes a limiting groove 31 and a limiting post 32. The limiting groove 31 is located on the inner wall of the fan assembly. Multiple limiting grooves 31 are provided and spaced apart. The limiting post 32 is located on the inner wall of the fan assembly and is connected to the limiting groove 31, which facilitates limiting the fan assembly.

[0023] Specifically, the limiting post 32 cooperates with the limiting groove 31. The limiting post 32, which is located on the inner side wall of the upper cover 11, moves with the upper cover 11. When the fan is closed, the limiting post 32 is inserted into the corresponding limiting groove 31 on the inner side wall of the fan frame 12 to form a rigid limit and prevent accidental opening.

[0024] It also includes a limiting block 33 and a limiting ring 34. The limiting ring 34 is located on the inner side wall of the fan assembly, and the limiting block 33 is located on the inner side wall of the fan assembly. Multiple limiting blocks 33 are provided and spaced apart to facilitate limiting the fan assembly.

[0025] Specifically, the limiting ring 34 and the limiting block 33 work together to form an auxiliary limiting structure with the limiting ring 34 on the inner side wall of the fan frame 12 and the limiting blocks 33 set at intervals. When the fan is in use, the limiting block 33 is embedded in the groove of the limiting ring 34 to further constrain the relative displacement between the upper cover 11 and the fan frame 12, improve the overall structural rigidity, and prevent the structure from loosening due to vibration or external force.

[0026] The splicing assembly includes a splicing slot 42, which is opened at one end of the fan assembly. Multiple splicing slots 42 are provided and spaced apart.

[0027] The inner wall of the splicing slot 42 is provided with splicing blocks 41 for splicing fan assemblies. Multiple splicing blocks 41 are provided and spaced apart.

[0028] Specifically, to enhance heat dissipation, users can connect multiple fans in parallel using the splicing assembly. A splicing slot 42 at one end of the fan frame 12 matches a splicing block 41 of another fan (spaced apart within the splicing slot 42), allowing for quick assembly via snap-fit ​​or magnetic attraction. After assembly, multiple devices form an array-style cooling system, simultaneously providing greater airflow coverage for the PC's core hardware such as the CPU and GPU, meeting the cooling needs of high-load operation scenarios.

[0029] The fan assembly includes an upper cover 11 and a fan frame 12. The upper cover 11 is located on the upper surface of the fan frame 12. The folding groove 21 is located on the inner side wall of the upper cover 11. The limiting groove 31 is located on the inner side wall of the fan frame 12. The limiting post 32 is located on the inner side wall of the upper cover 11. The limiting ring 34 is located on the inner side wall of the fan frame 12. The limiting block 33 is located on the inner side wall of the fan frame 12. The splicing groove 42 is located at one end of the fan frame 12.

[0030] The inner side wall of the fan frame 12 is provided with a support base 13 for supporting the fan. One end of the support base 13 is provided with a bracket 14, and multiple brackets 14 are provided and spaced apart.

[0031] Specifically, the support base 13 on the inner side wall of the fan frame 12 is used to fix the fan motor (not shown), and the motor drives the blades (not shown) to rotate and generate airflow. The bracket 14 (spaced at one end of the support base 13) supports the blade structure and ensures rotational stability.

[0032] The inner side wall of the fan frame 12 has an assembly cavity 15 for mounting the fan.

[0033] Specifically, the airflow forms a directional airflow channel through the assembly cavity 15 of the fan frame 12 (used to install core components such as motors and blades), which quickly dissipates heat from inside the PC, preventing the hardware from throttling or aging due to overheating.

[0034] Adopting an integrated foldable design, the fan components (such as the top cover 11 and the fan frame 12) can be quickly folded to a smaller size by cooperating with the folding slot 21 and the movable block 22 in the folding component and the rotation structure of the folding block 23. The overall size is significantly reduced after folding, which solves the problem that traditional foldable fans are still bulky after folding. It is easier to store in a backpack or computer bag and is perfectly suited for mobile use scenarios of portable devices such as laptops and tablets.

[0035] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present 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 its spirit or essential characteristics. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as exemplary and non-limiting, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within the present invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

[0036] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
