[0002] After using electrical appliances with air outlet structures such as fans and air conditioners for a period of time, a lot of dust will accumulate at the air inlets and outlets, making them difficult to clean. At present, the air inlet and outlet nets of some fans are detachable, and users can clean these parts after disassembly, but tools are usually required to disassemble or install them, which provides a poor user experience. In addition, after disassembling the air inlet and outlet nets, users can easily touch the rotating blades or moving parts, which can easily cause danger. Because the fan is equipped with circuits and electrical appliances, ordinary fans cannot be washed with water.

[0003] CN214698405U discloses a fan that can be washed with water. The motor assembly includes a PCBA board, a stator core and a rotor shaft. The inner center of the rear cover is provided with a positioning groove that opens forward. The PCBA board is installed in the positioning groove in pairs, and potting glue is poured into the positioning groove. The potting glue covers the PCBA board to ensure that water does not penetrate into the positioning groove during water washing to ensure that the PCBA board is not affected by water washing. The surface of the stator core is soaked with waterproof three-proof paint, so that the fan head has good overall waterproof performance and can be directly washed with water. The method of potting glue can only achieve sealing in a small range, and it is impossible to pot and seal a larger area. In addition, the cost of potting glue sealing is also relatively high.

[0004] Therefore, there is a need in the prior art for a washable fan that can achieve a wide range of waterproof sealing, thereby being easy to wash and having a low cost. Utility Model Content
