[0029] Example 1
[0030] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the structure of the hub and blades of this embodiment; Figure 2 It is a schematic structural diagram of the hub, blades, directions and schematic angles of this embodiment.
[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a fan blade comprises: a hub 1 and a plurality of blades 2. The hub 1 is connected to a fan motor; the plurality of blades 2 are arranged around the outer surface of the hub 1; each of the plurality of blades 2 is bent and extended along the surface of the hub 1 from the top end 11 of the hub 1 to the edge position 12 of the side, and each blade 2 is in a twisted shape.
[0032] In this embodiment, the overall shape of the wheel hub 1 is configured as a truncated cone. However, the overall shape of the wheel hub 1 is not limited thereto, and in some embodiments, the overall shape of the wheel hub 1 can be configured as a cone, a bullet, a hemispherical, a cylindrical, etc., depending on the specific application scenario.
[0033] The number of blades 2 in this embodiment is 9, but the number of blades 2 is not limited to this. Depending on the specific application scenario, in some embodiments, the number of blades 2 can be (not limited to): 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11 or more.
[0034] In the above embodiment, each of the multiple blades 2 is bent and extended from the top end 11 of the hub 1 to the side edge position 12 along the surface of the hub 1, and each blade 2 is in a twisted shape. The blade 2 of the fan blade pushes the airflow to rotate during the rotation process. Therefore, the airflow movement path in the fan blade is curved, and each blade 2 is bent and extended from the top end 11 of the hub 1 to the side edge position 12, which can make the shape of the blade 2 fit the curved path of the airflow movement, so that the air pushing efficiency and air guiding efficiency of the fan blade are significantly improved. When the fan blade rotates, the effect of each position of the blade 2 on the airflow is different. For example, at the tip 22 position, the main function of the blade 2 is to cut the wind, at the tip 22 and the tail 23 position, it is used to guide the wind, and at the tail 23 position, it is mainly used to discharge the wind. Since the function of each position of blade 2 is different, the shape of blade 2 is also different at each position. For example, at the tip 22 position, blade 2 is required to point to the direction of rotation of the fan blade to facilitate cutting the wind; at the position between the tip 22 and the tail 23, the vertical distance between blade 2 and hub 1 is required to be larger to facilitate receiving and intercepting more airflow; and at the tail 23, blade 2 is required to extend in the opposite direction of the fan blade rotation direction D1 to reduce the friction between blade 2 and the outflowing airflow, thereby reducing the aerodynamic wind noise and rotation resistance of the fan blade. The twisted shape of blade 2 can meet the actual use requirements of different positions, improve the air outlet efficiency of the fan blade, and reduce the aerodynamic wind noise of the fan blade.
[0035] The hub 1 is configured in a conical or truncated cone shape. The hub 1 is configured in a conical or truncated cone shape. The shape of the hub 1 can make the cross section of one end of the hub 1 smaller than that of the other end. Since the cross section of the surface of the hub 1 on the smaller side is smaller, there is more space for arranging the blades 2, so that the area of the blades 2 used for cutting wind is larger, and the wind cutting performance is better.
[0036] In this embodiment, the airflow direction of the fan blades when working is from the top end 11 of the hub 1 to the edge position 12. Overall, the air inlet direction of the fan blades is the direction indicated by D2.
[0037] In some embodiments, each blade 2 of the plurality of blades 2 includes a blade tip 22 , and the direction facing the blade tip 22 is the same as the rotation direction D1 of the fan blade.
[0038] The direction of the blade tip 22 is the same as the rotation direction D1 of the fan blade. The direction of the blade tip 22 can make the blade tip 22 and the contacting airflow form a "shovel" posture. In this posture, the blade tip 22 can more conveniently cut the airflow, and at the same time, it is convenient for the cut airflow to enter the inside of the fan blade along the guidance of the blade tip 22. Therefore, the direction of the blade tip 22 can increase the air intake of the fan blade and reduce the wind resistance and aerodynamic wind noise when the fan blade rotates.
[0039] In some embodiments, each blade 2 of the plurality of blades 2 includes a blade tip 22 , and an angle θ1 between an extension line L1 of a direction in which the blade tip 22 points and a horizontal direction H1 is an acute angle.
[0040] In this embodiment, the orientation of the blade tip 22 refers to the orientation of the blade tip 22 relative to the horizontal direction, and the direction of the blade tip 22 refers to the direction in which the end of the blade tip 22 points.
[0041] The angle θ1 between the extension line L1 of the direction in which the blade tip 22 points and the horizontal direction H1 is an acute angle, which can enable the blade tip 22 to form a "shovel" posture with the contacting airflow. In this posture, the angle between the blade tip 22 and the cut airflow is an acute angle, which can more conveniently and labor-savingly cut the airflow, reduce the airflow resistance of the fan blades, and improve the rotation efficiency of the fan blades.
[0042] In some embodiments, a wind-cutting slope 24 is provided at the position of the blade tip 22, and the wind-cutting slope 24 extends in the opposite direction of the rotation direction D1 of the fan blade. The end of the wind-cutting slope 24 is sharper, and when the fan blade rotates, the fan blade can better cut the airflow, reduce the resistance of the fan blade during the rotation process, and make the rotation efficiency of the fan blade higher. At the same time, since the wind-cutting slope 24 extends in the opposite direction of the rotation direction D1 of the fan blade, the blade 2 can have a better guiding effect on the airflow flowing through the surface of the fan blade, so that the airflow is separated from the blade 2 of the fan blade at a larger angle, reducing the noise generated by the side and the airflow.
[0043] The position of the blade tip 22 is not limited to setting the wind cutting slope 24. According to different specific application scenarios, in some embodiments, the position of the blade tip 22 can be a rounded blunt structure or a prismatic shape.
[0044] In some embodiments, the wind cutting slope 24 includes: a curved portion 241 and a linear portion 242 , one end of the linear portion 242 is connected to the surface of the hub 1 , the other end of the linear portion 242 is connected to the curved portion 241 , and the other end of the curved portion 241 is connected to the blade edge 21 .
[0045] In some embodiments, the angle between the blade tip 22 and the blade edge 21 is an acute angle θ2. The structure of the blade tip 22 and the blade edge 21 can make the outermost end of the blade tip 22 protrude to form a sharp portion. The acute angle structure can make the contact area of the blade tip 22 gradually increase as the fan blade rotates when cutting the airflow, so that the fan blade can cut the air more easily, reduce the wind resistance of the fan blade rotation, and improve the rotation efficiency of the fan blade.
[0046] The angle between the blade tip 22 and the blade edge 21 is not limited thereto. Depending on the specific application scenario, in some embodiments, the angle between the blade tip 22 and the blade edge 21 can be a right angle or an obtuse angle.
[0047] In some embodiments, each blade 2 of the plurality of blades 2 includes a blade tail 23 , which is bent and extends in a direction opposite to the rotation direction D1 of the fan blade.
[0048] According to the interaction of forces, when the fan blades rotate along their rotation direction D1, the airflow flowing through the fan blades has a tendency to move in the opposite direction of the rotation direction of the fan blades. When the airflow flows along the shape of the blade 2, the blade tail 23 bends and extends in the opposite direction of the rotation direction D1 of the fan blades. This curved structure fits the flow trend of the airflow inside the fan blades, making the blade 2 more smooth in restraining the airflow and improving the air outlet efficiency of the fan. At the same time, since the bending direction of the blade tail 23 is consistent with the flow trend of the airflow, the friction between the blade tail 23 and the airflow can be reduced when the airflow flows out of the business, thereby reducing the aerodynamic noise generated by the airflow at the blade tail 23.
[0049] In some embodiments, the wind-cutting slope 24 includes: a curved portion 241 and a linear portion 242, one end of the linear portion 242 is connected to the surface of the hub 1, the other end of the linear portion 242 is connected to the curved portion 241, and the other end of the curved portion 241 is connected to the blade edge 21. The outer portion of the wind-cutting slope 24 is configured as a curved portion 241, because the contact surface between the curved portion 241 and the airflow is gradually increased during the rotation of the blade 2 with the hub 1, and the curved portion 241 located on the outer side has a greater linear velocity. Therefore, the curved portion 241 can better cut the wind and increase the wind-cutting ability of the blade tip 22. At the same time, since the curved portion 241 is in contact with the airflow at different positions step by step, the resistance to the airflow is reduced, and the aerodynamic noise generated when the fan blade rotates is reduced. The linear portion 242 connected to the curved portion 241 is distributed on the inner side of the blade tip 22, and the linear velocity of the linear portion 242 when rotating is smaller than that of the curved portion 241, so the wind resistance is smaller. The straight structure of the linear portion 242 enables the linear portion 242 to synchronously contact the airflow, thereby increasing the wind cutting area of the wind cutting slope 24 , so that the wind cutting slope 24 can increase the wind cutting efficiency through the curved portion 241 and increase the wind cutting volume through the linear portion 242 .
[0050] In some embodiments, the length of the blade tip 22 is greater than the length of the blade tail 23. The blade tip 22 is used to cut the wind during the rotation of the fan blade. By widening the length of the blade tip 22, the wind cutting area of the blade tip 22 can be increased, and the wind intake efficiency of the blade tip 22 can be improved. The blade tail 23 is used for air discharge. The width of the blade tail 23 is small, which can reduce the restraint ability of the blade tail 23 on the outflowing airflow, reduce the friction between the outflowing airflow and the blade tail 23, improve the air discharge efficiency of the blade tail 23, and reduce the aerodynamic noise of the blade tail 23.
[0051] The length between the blade tip 22 and the blade tail 23 is not limited thereto. Depending on the specific application scenario, in some embodiments, the length of the blade tip 22 can be the same as the length of the blade tail 23 or the length of the blade tip 22 can be less than the length of the blade tail 23.
[0052] In some embodiments, at least one arc-shaped notch 231 is provided at the blade tail 23. When the fan blades rotate, the internal airflow will rotate synchronously with the fan blades to generate a rotating airflow. Between adjacent blades 2, after the wind is discharged at the blade tail 23 of the front blade 2, the rotating airflow will move obliquely according to inertia, and the inclined airflow will collide with the airflow flowing out of the rear blade 2, and the airflows with fixed directions will generate a vortex after the intersection, affecting the air outlet efficiency of the fan blades. The arc-shaped notch 231 is provided at the blade tail 23, so that the airflow flowing out of the blade tail 23 of each blade 2 can be diverted into multiple airflows, and the energy of each airflow is reduced, so as to avoid the energy and route of the airflow flowing out of the blade tail 23 being too concentrated, and colliding with the airflow flowing out of the blade tail 23 of the rear blade 2 or forming a vortex, thereby improving the air outlet efficiency of the fan blades and reducing the aerodynamic wind noise of the fan blades.
[0053] In this embodiment, there are two arc-shaped notches 231 at the blade tail 23. However, the number of the arc-shaped notches 231 is not limited thereto, and according to different specific application scenarios, in some embodiments, the number of the arc-shaped notches 231 can be (not limited to): 2, 3, 4, 5 or more.
[0054] The arc-shaped notch 231 has a rounded and smooth surface, and has a small resistance to the airflow flowing out of it. Therefore, the arc-shaped notch 231 can improve the air outlet efficiency of the blade tail 23. At the same time, the two sides of the arc-shaped notch 231 are symmetrical to each other in the same linear dimension, which can avoid the vibration of the blade 2 caused by the inconsistent airflow velocity after the pressure relief on the left and right sides, improve the stability of the fan blade rotation, and reduce the aerodynamic noise of the fan blade.
[0055] The notch at the blade tail 23 is not limited thereto. Depending on the specific application scenario, in some embodiments, the notch of the blade tail 23 has a shape (not limited to): a wedge shape, a quadrilateral, other polygons, or a heart shape.
[0056] In some embodiments, the connection position of the curved portion 241 and the blade edge 21 is configured to form an acute angle. The sharp portion formed by connecting the curved portion 241 and the blade edge 21 to form an acute angle can make the structure of the sharp portion more protruding, and the wind cutting effect is better. At the same time, the curved portion 241 can also guide the airflow, so that the airflow moves along the curved portion 241 toward the hub 1, thereby improving the fan blade's ability to gather the incoming airflow and making the airflow more concentrated.
[0057] In some embodiments, when two or more arc-shaped notches 231 are provided at the blade tail 23, an arc-shaped protrusion 232 is provided between two adjacent arc-shaped notches 231, and the arc-shaped protrusion 232 is in the opposite direction to the arc-shaped notch 231. When two or more arc-shaped notches 231 are provided at the blade tail 23, an arc-shaped protrusion 232 is provided between two adjacent arc-shaped notches 231. The provision of the arc-shaped protrusion 232 can further divert the airflow flowing out of the blade tail 23. Further, the air outlet efficiency of the fan blade is improved, and the aerodynamic wind noise of the fan blade is reduced.
[0058] In some embodiments, when two or more arc-shaped notches 231 are provided at the blade tail 23, the area of the arc-shaped notches 231 gradually decreases along the direction from the hub 1 to the blade edge 21. Since, when the fan blade rotates, the wind force of the airflow in the fan blade gradually decreases along the direction from the hub 1 to the blade edge 21, the area of the arc-shaped notches 231 gradually decreases along the direction from the hub 1 to the blade edge 21, so that the larger arc-shaped notches 231 release and relieve pressure on the strong airflow, and the smaller arc-shaped notches 231 release and relieve pressure on the weak airflow, thereby making the different positions of the blade tail 23 perform equivalent pressure relief and airflow release according to the strength of the airflow at the corresponding position, so as to achieve the purpose of balanced airflow at the blade tail 23. Balanced airflow can also avoid local vibration caused by unbalanced discharge at different positions of the blade tail 23, and therefore, can also reduce the aerodynamic noise of the fan blade.
