[0034] The following is combined with Figure 1-7 This application is described in further detail.

[0035] The present application discloses a noise-absorbing axial flow fan. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The silent axial flow fan comprises a cylinder 1, a motor 2, a mounting plate 3, a plurality of guide vanes 4 and an impeller 5 which are arranged inside the cylinder 1.

The driving end of the motor 2 is connected to the impeller 5, and the motor 2 is used to drive the impeller 5 to rotate. Through the cooperation of the guide vane 4 and the mounting plate 3, the motor 2 and the impeller 5 are arranged in the middle of the cylinder 1.

[0037] Reference Figures 2 to 4, along the direction from the outside to the inside of the cylinder 1, the cylinder 1 includes a metal outer cylinder 11, a first sound-absorbing cotton plate 12 and a first perforated mesh plate 13. The first perforated mesh plate 13 is fixedly connected to the metal outer cylinder 11, and the first sound-absorbing cotton plate 12 is filled between the first perforated mesh plate 13 and the metal outer cylinder 11. The first perforated mesh plate 13 is provided with a plurality of first through holes. The guide vane 4 is penetrated by the first perforated mesh plate 13, and the first sound-absorbing cotton plate 12 is welded to the metal outer cylinder 11. It is worth noting that the first through hole is provided on the first perforated mesh plate 13, which is a conventional technical means for those skilled in the art; in order to improve the simplicity of the drawings in the specification, the drawings in this specification do not show the first through hole in the first perforated mesh plate 13.

[0038] The motor 2 drives the impeller 5 to rotate, which will generate noise. When the sound wave enters the first muffler cotton board 12 through the first through hole of the first perforated mesh plate 13, the energy of the sound wave will be absorbed by the fibers and gaps inside the first muffler cotton board 12. The fibers and gaps inside the first muffler cotton board 12 can convert the mechanical energy of the sound wave into heat energy, thereby reducing the reflection and propagation of the sound wave, and playing a role in reducing noise. At the same time, the setting of the muffler pipe accessories at both ends of the fan is reduced, and the space required for installing the fan and the use cost of the fan are reduced.

[0039] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The cylinder 1 also includes a plurality of pressure strips 14, one side of the pressure strips 14 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the metal outer cylinder 11, and the other side of the pressure strips 14 is fixedly connected to the first perforated mesh plate 13. The pressure strips 14 allow a gap to be provided between the metal outer cylinder 11 and the first perforated mesh plate 13 to accommodate the first sound-absorbing cotton plate 12. At the same time, the pressure strips 14 also increase the rigidity of the cylinder 1 to improve the stability of the fan operation.

[0042] The staff welded and fixed the second steel bar 142 of the pressure strip 14 to the metal outer tube 11; then, the staff filled the first sound-absorbing cotton board 12 between the metal outer tube 11 and the first steel bar 141; finally, the staff used the first perforated mesh 13 to wrap the first sound-absorbing cotton board 12, and fixed the first perforated mesh 13 to the first steel bar 141 with screws.

[0043] Reference Figure 6 The cylinder body 1 further includes two retaining rings 15, which are arranged on both sides of the pressure strip 14, and the retaining rings 15 are welded and fixedly connected to the second steel strip 142. After the retaining rings 15 are fixedly connected to the pressure strip 14, the retaining rings 15, the metal outer cylinder 11 and the first perforated mesh plate 13 enclose the first sound-absorbing cotton board 12 to further fix the position of the first sound-absorbing cotton board 12 and improve the operability of the device.

The baffle plate 412 is a groove section, and the baffle plate 412 is used to fix the second sound-absorbing cotton plate 42. The baffle plate 412 is arranged opposite to the groove-shaped portion 8, and the baffle plate 412 is screwed to the first component 6 of the guide vane plate 411. The second perforated mesh plate 413 is arranged between the baffle plate 412 and the guide vane plate 411, and the second perforated mesh plate 413 is provided with a plurality of second through holes.

[0046] The staff welded and fixed the two ends of the guide vane 411 to the metal outer tube 11 and the mounting plate 3 respectively; then, the staff set the second silencer cotton plate 42 between the double-layer guide vane plates 411, and fixed the second silencer cotton plate 42 with the grooved portion 8 of the guide vane plates 411; after that, the staff installed the baffle plate 412 at the front end of the guide vane plate 411, and used screws to fix the baffle plate 412 to the first component 6; finally, the staff installed the second perforated mesh plate 413 between the baffle plate 412 and the guide vane plate 411, and used screws to fix the perforated mesh plate to the baffle plate 412 and the guide vane plate 411.

[0047] In this embodiment, the angle between the first component 6 and the second component 7 is an obtuse angle, and the first component 6 is screwed to the baffle 412. Therefore, when the motor 2 drives the impeller 5 to rotate, when the fluid flows inside the cylinder 1 and collides with the guide vane 411, the broken line-shaped first component 6 and second component 7 can reduce the generation of noise, thereby achieving the effect of reducing the fan noise.
