[0032] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with the embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.
[0033] like Figure 1-3 The figure shows the structure of the high-strength composite fan housing of the utility model, which is usually installed on one side of the fan air inlet. When the fan is working normally, it prevents foreign objects from entering the fan and causing damage to the fan. At the same time, the structural strength of the housing is higher and will not crack or deform due to vibration. The fan housing includes an outer housing 1, an inner housing 2, a transition housing 3, a first reinforcement, a second reinforcement, an outer stop bar 8, an inner stop bar 9, a fixing bar 10, a first fixing hole 11, a locking hole 12 and a filter.
[0034] The fan housing is made of glass fiber reinforced composite material, carbon fiber reinforced composite material, aramid fiber reinforced composite material or basalt fiber composite material. The housing made of composite material is light in weight, convenient for transfer, transportation and subsequent installation. The composite material is also strong, and the housing will not deform or even crack when the fan is working for a long time, eliminating the need for subsequent maintenance and replacement, saving costs. The housing made of composite material is also acid-resistant, alkali-resistant and aging-resistant, which effectively extends the service life of the housing, is not easily eroded by rain and snow, can still be used normally in harsh environments, and is more versatile.
[0035] The outer side of the outer shell 1 is square, and a square groove is provided on the inner side of the outer shell 1 (i.e., the outer shell 1 is in the shape of a Chinese character “U”). The inner shell 2 is arranged parallel to one side of the outer shell 1, and the inner shell 2 is circular, and a circular groove is provided in the middle of the inner shell 2 to facilitate the entry of external air. The diameter of the inner shell 2 is smaller than the side length of the outer shell 1.
[0036] The transition housing 3 is integrally connected between the outer housing 1 and the inner housing 2. Since the inner housing 2 is arranged parallel to the outer housing 1 and the diameter of the inner housing 2 is smaller than the side length of the outer housing 1, the overall structure of the fan housing is as follows: Figure 3As shown. The transition shell 3 extends from the inner shell 2 to one side of the outer shell 1 in an open manner. When the blades in the fan rotate, they will not come into contact with the transition shell 3. In addition, the transition shell 3 is designed to be open. When it rains, rainwater is drained in time through the transition shell 3 to prevent rainwater from gathering at the connection between the cover and the fan and penetrating from the gap between the two, causing the fan blades to rust.
[0037] The first reinforcement member is arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the transition shell 3 to improve the structural strength of the side structure of the transition shell 3 to prevent the transition shell 3 from vibrating and cracking due to long-term operation of the fan. The first reinforcement member is composed of multiple reinforcement groups, such as Figure 4 As shown, each reinforcement group includes two first ribs 4 arranged at intervals and a drainage groove 5 arranged between the two first ribs 4.
[0038] The first rib 4 is used to fix the outer shell 1, the inner shell 2 and the transition shell 3 to improve the overall structural strength. Since the inner shell 2 is arranged parallel to the outer shell 1 and the diameter of the inner shell 2 is smaller than the side length of the outer shell 1, the drainage groove 5 is arranged obliquely.
[0039] After the fan cover is fixed to one side of the fan air inlet, when it rains, the rainwater is drained in time through the inclined drainage groove 5 to prevent rainwater from gathering at the connection between the cover and the fan and penetrating from the gap between the two, causing the fan blades to rust.
[0040] like Figure 4 , which is a schematic diagram of the structure of the first rib 4, the first rib 4 includes a first adapter portion 401, a first fixing portion 402, a second fixing portion 403 and a first inclined portion 404. The first adapter portion 401 is integrally connected to the outer peripheral surface of the transition shell 3 and matches the shape of the side surface of the transition shell 3. The first fixing portion 402 is integrally connected to one side of the first adapter portion 401 and is connected to the outer side wall of the inner shell 2. The second fixing portion 403 is integrally connected to the other side of the first adapter portion 401 and is connected to the side of the outer shell 1 close to the inner shell 2.
[0041] The first inclined portion 404 is used to connect the first fixed portion 402 and the second fixed portion 403 to improve the structural strength of the outer shell 1 and the inner shell 2. At the same time, the first inclined portion 404 is inclined to support the outer shell 1 outward to prevent the outer shell 1 from deforming toward the inner shell 2, which would cause a gap between the outer shell 1 and the fan air inlet and cause it to loosen.
[0042] The second reinforcement member is arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the transition shell 3 and is arranged alternately with the first reinforcement member. Figure 1 As shown, the first reinforcement member is used to improve the structural strength of the side structure of the transition shell 3, and the second reinforcement member is used to improve the structural strength of the four corners of the transition shell 3.
[0043] The second reinforcement member includes a second rib 6 and a diagonal brace 7. The second rib 6 is integrally arranged on the outer circumference of the transition shell 3, and the inner side of the second rib 6 is connected to the inner shell 2, and the outer side of the second rib 6 is connected to the outer shell 1. The diagonal brace 7 is integrally connected to the outer side of the second rib 6 and is respectively connected to the outer shell 1. The second rib 6 is used to improve the structural strength of the transition shell 3, and the diagonal brace 7 is used to improve the connection strength between the second rib 6 and the outer shell 1.
[0044] like Figure 2 As shown, the included angle of the diagonal braces 7 on both sides of the second rib 6 is 90°, and the inner side of the diagonal brace 7 is connected to the center of the second rib 6. When the fan is working, the force applied to the second rib 6 is evenly distributed, and the cover will not deform or vibrate due to uneven force.
[0045] like Figure 5 The figure is a schematic diagram of the structure of the diagonal brace 7, which includes a second adapter portion 701, a third fixing portion 702, and a second diagonal portion 703. The second adapter portion 701 is integrally arranged on the outside of the transition shell 3, the third fixing portion 702 is integrally arranged on the side of the outer shell 1 close to the inner shell 2, and the second diagonal portion 703 is used to connect the second adapter portion 701 and the third fixing portion 702. The second adapter portion 701, the third fixing portion 702, and the second diagonal portion 703 form a triangular structure, and the principle of triangular stability is used to increase the structural strength of the second rib 6 and the outer shell 1.
[0046] By alternately arranging the first reinforcement and the second reinforcement on the outer circumference of the transition shell 3, the structural strength between the outer shell 1, the transition shell 3 and the inner shell 2 can be improved. The inclined design of the first reinforcement and the second reinforcement can support the outer shell 1 outward to prevent the outer shell 1 from deforming and causing gaps in the air inlet of the fan. In addition, during the actual fixed installation, there is no need to distinguish the installation direction, which is more convenient for operators to install.
[0047] The outer baffle 8 is integrally arranged on the outer side of the outer shell 1 and extends toward the side close to the inner shell 2. The inner baffle 9 is integrally arranged on the inner side of the outer shell 1 and extends toward the side close to the inner shell 2. Figure 1 As shown, the inner baffle 9 passes through the first reinforcement and the second reinforcement, and the inner baffle 9 is arranged perpendicular to the first reinforcement and the second reinforcement to improve the structural strength of the connection between the first reinforcement and the second reinforcement and the outer shell 1.
[0048] The height of the inner baffle 9 is greater than that of the outer baffle 8, ensuring that the inner baffle 9 has sufficient contact area with the first reinforcement and the second reinforcement, ensuring that the connection is more stable. The fixing bar 10 is fixed between the inner baffle 9 and the outer baffle 8 to improve the connection strength between the inner baffle 9 and the outer baffle 8.
[0049] The first fixing hole 11 is arranged on the inner shell 2 and penetrates the inner shell 2. The first fixing hole 11 corresponds to the position of the first reinforcement member. The first fixing hole 11 is used to fix the filter screen. Since the opening of the first fixing hole 11 will reduce the structural strength of the inner shell 2, the position of the first fixing hole 11 is set on the inner side of the first reinforcement member, and the structural strength of the inner shell 2 is increased by the first reinforcement member.
[0050] The locking hole 12 passes through the outer shell 1, and the cover is fixed to the air inlet of the fan with bolts. Figure 2 As shown, the locking hole 12 is located between the inner baffle 9 and the outer baffle 8, and the outer baffle 8 and the inner baffle 9 shield the bolts to prevent the bolts from being corroded by rainwater and rusting, resulting in a gap between the cover and the fan air inlet.
[0051] The filter is fixed on the inner shell 2 to prevent foreign matter from entering the fan and causing damage to the fan when the fan is working normally. Figure 6 , 7 As shown, the filter screen includes a filter screen body 13, a through slot 14, a second fixing hole 15, a mesh bar 16, an air duct 17 and a connecting bar 18. A circular through slot 14 is provided on the inner side of the filter screen body 13 to ensure normal air circulation when the fan is working normally.
[0052] The second fixing hole 15 is arranged on the filter body 13 and matches the position of the first fixing hole 11 . The screws are passed through the second fixing hole 15 and the first fixing hole 11 , so as to fix the filter body 13 on the inner shell 2 .
[0053] The mesh bars 16 are annular and are concentrically and evenly spaced in the through grooves 14, and an air duct 17 is formed between two adjacent mesh bars 16. While blocking foreign matter from the outside, it will not affect the normal circulation of air (because the fixed bars 10 are concentrically and evenly spaced, the area of the air duct 17 is larger, which will not affect the normal circulation of air. At the same time, compared with horizontal and vertical grid grilles, the noise during air circulation is smaller).
[0054] The connecting strips 18 are fixed between the mesh strips 16 and are used to connect the inner and outer mesh strips 16. Figure 6 , 7 As shown, the connecting strip 18 is arranged in a ring in the through groove 14, and the angle between two adjacent connecting strips 18 is 120°, which can not only realize the fixed connection of the mesh strip 16, but also will not cut the area of the air duct 17 too small, thereby avoiding the generation of noise.
[0055] The utility model high-strength composite material fan cover effectively improves the structural strength of the transition shell 3 by alternately arranging the first reinforcement member and the second reinforcement member on the circumferential surface of the transition shell 3. When the fan is working normally, the cover will not vibrate and deform. At the same time, the first reinforcement member and the second reinforcement member are arranged obliquely outward, which not only has the function of drainage, but also supports the outer shell 1 outward to avoid deformation of the outer shell 1.
[0056] The inner and outer baffles 9 and 8 can further improve the structural strength of the roots of the first and second reinforcements, while also preventing the bolts from rusting. The arrangement of the concentric and evenly spaced mesh bars 16 inside the filter can block the entry of foreign matter and prevent damage to the fan. At the same time, the air duct 17 has a larger area, which will not affect the normal circulation of air. At the same time, compared with the horizontal and vertical grid grilles, the noise is smaller when the air circulates.
[0057] The above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical concept and features of the utility model, and their purpose is to enable people familiar with the technology to understand the content of the utility model and implement it accordingly, and they cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the utility model. Any equivalent changes or modifications made according to the spirit of the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
