[0017] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, the pneumatic fan 3 proposed by the utility model can drive both one fan for cooling and multiple fans for cooling through one power source. The power sources of the pneumatic fan 3 are connected in series to improve the utilization rate of the power source. When used specifically, the wind source serves as the power source of the pneumatic fan. The compressed air on the compressed air pipeline 1 passes through the oil-water separator 2 to filter out the oil and water therein, so that the compressed air is output stably and enters the casing 4 through the air inlet pipe 9. The compressed air will drive the impeller 12 in the casing 4 to rotate, and a pneumatic high-pressure chamber will be formed in the casing 4. The rotation of the impeller 12 will drive the transmission shaft 6 to rotate in the roller 5. The rotation of the transmission shaft 6 will drive the fan blades 8 to rotate in the front cover 7 to cool the tunnel. The utility model does not require electric energy, but uses the compressed air in the tunnel to drive the fan blades 8 to rotate.

[0020] A valve 17 is installed on the first air duct 10 , and a drain valve 18 is installed on one side of the oil-water separator 2 .

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, the flow rate of the air supply flow can be controlled by the valve 17, thereby controlling the rotation speed of the blades 8 of the pneumatic fan 3 to achieve a stepless speed change effect; the drain valve 18 is used to discharge wind source impurities such as oil and water remaining in the oil-water separator 2, effectively ensuring that the drive 4 will not be unstable in wind pressure due to wind source impurities and will not rust after long-term use, which directly improves the service life.

[0022] A plurality of atomizing nozzles 19 are arranged on the outer wall of the front cover 7 .

The low temperature emitted by the ice is carried by the flow of air and effectively diffused to the workplace, which can effectively reduce the temperature of the workplace.

[0024] A support rod 20 is provided below the roller 5 , and a counterweight base 21 is provided at the bottom of the support rod 20 .

[0025] Principle of use: The pneumatic fan 3 proposed in the utility model can be extended to a variety of products for use, such as being used as a dust reduction device, a heat dissipation device for workers in a high temperature environment, and an exhaust fan for an underground garage chamber to drive air circulation in the garage and improve the garage environment; and the pneumatic fan 3 can be used alone or in series. When multiple pneumatic fans 3 are used together, the compressed air on the compressed air pipeline 1 passes through the oil-water separator 2 to filter out the oil and water impurities therein, and enters the casing 4 through the air inlet pipe 9. The compressed air will drive the impeller 12 in the casing 4 to rotate, and a pneumatic high-pressure chamber will be formed in the casing 4. The rotation of the impeller 12 will drive the transmission shaft 6 to rotate in the roller 5, and the rotation of the transmission shaft 6 will drive the fan blades 8 to rotate in the front cover 7.
