[0022] refer to Figures 1 to 3 An axial flow fan with a wire limiting structure includes a shell 10, a stator assembly and a rotor assembly. The shell is formed with a hollow cavity, an air inlet 101 and an air outlet 102 connecting the hollow cavity and the outside. The air inlet and the air outlet are arranged correspondingly in front and behind. A stator assembly mounting plate 20 is provided at the center of the air inlet. The stator assembly is fixedly assembled on the stator assembly mounting plate and is located in the cavity. The rotor assembly is rotatably assembled in the cavity and is electromagnetically coupled with the stator assembly. A wire hole and a first limiting groove 21 are provided on the stator assembly mounting plate 20. The edge of the shell is provided with a second limiting groove 11 corresponding to the first limiting groove. A limiting hook 30 is provided on the periphery of the shell, and the limiting hook is located beside the second limiting groove.

[0023] The wire connected to the stator assembly is led out from the wire hole, enters the first limiting groove 21, crosses the air inlet 101, enters the second limiting groove 11, and then enters the limiting hook 30. In this way, the wire is led out from the stator assembly to the periphery of the axial flow fan, avoiding the wire from entering the air inlet 101 of the axial flow fan and interfering with the rotor assembly. The wire is embedded in the first limiting groove 21 and the second limiting groove 11, so that the surface of the housing 10 is flat.

[0024] The housing 10 is square, one corner of the housing is chamfered, the limit hook is arranged at the chamfer, the limit hook 30 is L-shaped, and the limit hook and the chamfered housing form a square shape. In this way, the shape of the entire axial flow fan is still square, which is convenient for the axial flow fan to be installed in a fixed position of the electronic and electrical equipment. For example, the space reserved by the axial flow fan of the electronic and electrical equipment is a square, which can only accommodate a square axial flow fan.

[0025] The stator assembly mounting plate 20 is connected to the housing body through a plurality of ribs 22, and the plurality of ribs are distributed along the circumference of the stator assembly mounting plate, and one of the plurality of ribs is the side wall of the first limiting groove 21 and the second limiting groove 11. The wire from the stator assembly can lean on the side wall of the rib 22 and cross the air inlet 101, which is conducive to the stability of the wire.

[0026] The end of the limiting hook 30 is provided with a wedge-shaped hook head 31. The hook head 31 is convex inwardly and can prevent the wire in the limiting hook 30 from escaping from the limiting hook.

[0027] The limiting hook 30 is equipped with an auxiliary hook 40, which is arranged on the same side wall of the housing 10 from top to bottom, and the limiting hook and the auxiliary hook are arranged in opposite directions. The auxiliary hook 40 has the same shape as the limiting hook 30, and is arranged at the chamfer of the housing 10. Since the limiting hook and the auxiliary hook are arranged in opposite directions, the wire can be manually inserted into the limiting hook 30 and the auxiliary hook 40, but the wire is not easy to automatically detach from the limiting hook and the auxiliary hook, which is conducive to the stability of the wire position.

[0028] The inner wall of the limit hook 30 is provided with a plurality of protrusions 32, and there is a gap between two adjacent protrusions. The wire entering the limit hook 30 contacts the protrusions 32, generating friction to stabilize the position of the wire and prevent it from bending and entering the air inlet 101.

[0029] The stator assembly mounting plate 20 is covered with a decorative cover 23 , which covers the wire hole and the first limiting groove 21 .
