Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of electronic and electrical products, in particular to a radiator. Background Art
[0002] The cooling fan mainly includes a shell, a stator assembly and a rotor assembly (fan wheel assembly). The shell is formed with a hollow cavity, an air inlet and an air outlet connecting the hollow cavity and the outside. The stator assembly is fixedly assembled in the cavity. The rotor assembly is rotatably assembled in the cavity and is electromagnetically coupled with the stator assembly. The winding of the stator assembly needs to be energized to generate electromagnetic force to drive the rotor assembly to rotate. The stator assembly is located at the center of the cooling fan, and an air flow channel is provided around it. The wires connected to the stator assembly need to be led to the periphery of the cooling fan through the air flow channel and connected to the power supply components. Utility Model Content
[0003] The technical problem solved by the utility model is to improve the heat dissipation efficiency of a heat dissipation fan.
[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: an EC axial flow fan, comprising a shell, a stator assembly and a rotor assembly, the shell forming a hollow cavity, an air inlet and an air outlet connecting the hollow cavity and the outside, the air inlet and the air outlet are arranged in front and back correspondence, a stator assembly mounting plate is provided at the center of the air inlet, the stator assembly mounting plate is connected to the shell through a plurality of ribs, 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, the air inlet and the air outlet are both trumpet-shaped, the axial depth of the trumpet-shaped air inlet is greater than the axial depth of the trumpet-shaped air outlet, and the side wall of the hollow cavity between the air inlet and the air outlet is a straight wall.
[0005] The rotor assembly rotates, and a low-pressure area is formed in the hollow cavity. The airflow outside the air inlet flows into the hollow cavity through the air inlet. Since the air inlet is designed in a trumpet shape, compared with the straight-walled air inlet, the trumpet-shaped air inlet can inhale a wider range of airflow to improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the cooling fan.
[0006] The air outlet is in the shape of a trumpet. Under the action of the rotor assembly, the airflow in the hollow cavity can be discharged quickly. Compared with the straight-walled air outlet, the airflow discharge range is expanded, which is beneficial to improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the cooling fan.
[0007] The axial depth of the trumpet-shaped air inlet is greater than the axial depth of the trumpet-shaped air outlet. In this way, under the action of the rotor assembly, a low-pressure area as large as possible is formed in the hollow cavity, and a large amount of airflow on one side of the air inlet is sucked in to improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the cooling fan. The trumpet-shaped air inlet is equivalent to chamfering the end edge of the hollow cavity. The chamfer includes two right-angled sides, and the length of the axial right-angled side represents the axial depth of the air inlet.
[0008] A wire limiting groove is provided on one of the plurality of ribs, the inner end of the wire limiting groove extends to the stator assembly mounting plate, and is connected to the wire hole on the stator assembly mounting plate, and the outer end of the wire limiting groove extends to the edge of the shell to form a first notch, and the opening end of the first notch is provided with a first blocking structure. The wire connected to the stator assembly is led out from the wire hole, enters the wire limiting groove, passes through the air inlet, and is led out from the first notch. Since the wire limiting groove is directly provided on the rib, the wire embedded in the wire limiting groove will not enter the air inlet of the axial flow fan and interfere with the rotor assembly. The first blocking structure can prevent the wire in the first notch from running out.
[0009] The wire limiting groove includes a main limiting groove with an opening facing upward and a reverse locking limiting groove with an opening facing downward. A triangular opening is provided at the junction of the reverse locking limiting groove and the main limiting groove. The wire connected to the stator assembly is led out from the wire hole, first enters the reverse locking limiting groove, then passes through the triangular opening, enters the main limiting groove, and is led out from the first notch. The triangular opening provides conditions for the external lead-out of the wire.
[0010] The housing is provided with an upper plate and a lower plate, the upper plate, the lower plate and the outer wall of the housing form a groove structure, a plurality of ribs connect the upper plate, a first notch is provided on the upper plate, and the first notch is connected to the groove structure. The wire led out of the first notch can be hidden in the groove structure and then led to a power supply device in a specific direction. In this way, the wires are neat and orderly to avoid clutter.
[0011] The lower plate is provided with a second notch, the opening end of the second notch is provided with a second blocking structure, and the second notch is arranged opposite to the first notch in vertical direction. The wire entering the groove structure can be led outward through the second notch, so that the wiring of the cooling fan is flexible.

The hollow structure can absorb the displacement or deformation of the rib, which may come from the stator assembly mounting plate. The design of the hollow structure is conducive to the stability of the stator assembly and the rotor assembly. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0025] The rotor assembly rotates, and a low pressure area is formed in the hollow cavity 103, and the airflow outside the air inlet 101 flows into the hollow cavity 103 through the air inlet. Since the air inlet 101 is designed in a trumpet shape, compared with a straight-walled air inlet, the trumpet-shaped air inlet can inhale a wider range of airflow, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the cooling fan.
[0026] The air outlet 102 is in the shape of a trumpet. Under the action of the rotor assembly, the airflow in the hollow cavity 103 can be quickly discharged. Compared with the air outlet in the shape of a straight wall, the airflow discharge range is expanded, which is beneficial to improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the heat dissipation fan.
[0027] The axial depth of the trumpet-shaped air inlet 101 is greater than the axial depth of the trumpet-shaped air outlet 102. In this way, under the action of the rotor assembly, a low-pressure area as large as possible is formed in the hollow cavity 103, and a large amount of airflow on one side of the air inlet is sucked in to improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the cooling fan.

The wire connected to the stator assembly is led out from the wire hole, enters the wire limiting groove, passes through the air inlet 101, and is led out from the first notch 32. Since the wire limiting groove is directly provided on the rib 30, the wire embedded in the wire limiting groove will not enter the air inlet 101 of the axial flow fan and interfere with the rotor assembly. The first blocking structure 33 can prevent the wire in the first notch 32 from running out.

A triangular opening 35 is provided at the junction of the reverse locking groove and the main limiting groove. The wire connected to the stator assembly is led out from the wire hole, first enters the reverse locking groove 34, then passes through the triangular opening 35, enters the main limiting groove 31, and is led out from the first notch 32.

A plurality of ribs connect the upper plate. A first notch 32 is provided on the upper plate. The first notch is connected to the groove structure.
