[0022] The present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0023] See also Figure 1An overlapping fan module includes a housing 1 and two sets of fans 2. The housing 1 is roughly rectangular, and the two sets of fans 2 are arranged in the housing 1 along the length direction of the housing 1.

[0024] See also Figure 2 In one embodiment, the housing 1 is in a rectangular parallelepiped configuration, and a receiving groove 11 is provided in the middle portion of the housing 1. The receiving groove 11 is used to receive the fan 2. In one embodiment, a fixing device 12 is provided in the receiving groove 11. The fixing device 12 is used to fix the fan 2. Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The fixing device 12 is arranged one by one with the four fans 2, and each fixing device 12 includes a fixing ring 121 and a plurality of extension arms 122, wherein the fixing ring 121 is arranged corresponding to the center position of the fan 2, and the fixing ring 121 is arranged in an array along the length direction of the housing 1, and the extension arms 122 extend outward and are connected to the inner wall of the housing 1. In one embodiment, three extension arms 122 are arranged on each fixing ring 121.

[0025] See also Figure 1 The two groups of fans 2 respectively include two fans 2, and both groups of fans 2 are fixed on the fixing device 12, one group of fans 2 is located on the upper side of the thickness direction of the housing 1, and the other group of fans 2 is located on the lower side of the thickness direction of the housing 1, and the two groups of fans 2 are staggered and overlapped.

[0026] See also Figure 1 The sizes of the two groups of fans 2 are different. Specifically, in one embodiment, the size of the upper fan 2 is larger than that of the lower fan 2. By limiting the size, overlapping and collision between the blades 21 of the fan 2 can be effectively avoided during the rotation of the fan 2.
