This FFU fan impeller guard has a simple structure, with a closed limited cover plate at the top and a safety mesh on the side. Air enters from the safety mesh on the side, which can prevent debris from entering from the top of the guard, prevent machine damage, and increase service life.

[0004] However, fan failure is inevitable during the use of existing FFU fans, so the faulty fan needs to be replaced. The traditional replacement method requires the installer to use a screwdriver to dismantle the air inlet cover or the air ring and then remove the internal fan fixing screws to remove the faulty fan. The fan fixings need to be completely disassembled to remove the fan, which is inefficient and the replacement steps are cumbersome. Therefore, it does not meet the existing needs. In this regard, we propose an FFU fan that is easy to replace. Utility Model Content
