[0032] First aspect

[0033] The present disclosure provides a fan 10, see Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the fan 10 may include: a first circuit module 11, a light-emitting element 12, a second circuit module 13 and a first connector 14. The first circuit module 11 is used to drive the fan 10 to discharge air. The first circuit module 11 may have multiple first states, and the air volume of the fan 10 is different in different first states. The first circuit module 11 may include a first control end 111 for receiving a signal to change the first state; the second circuit module 13 is used to drive the light-emitting element 12 to emit light. The second circuit module 13 may have multiple second states, and the light-emitting characteristics of the light-emitting element 12 are different in different second states. The second circuit module 13 may include a second control end 131 for receiving a signal to change the second state; the first connector 14 may include a first pin 141 and a second pin 142. The first pin 141 may be electrically connected to the first control end 111, and the second pin 142 may be electrically connected to the second control end 131.

[0034] The first circuit module 11 and the second circuit module 13 may be control circuits, for example: Figure 1As shown, the first circuit module 11 may be a control circuit, the first control terminal 111 may be a fan_ctl control program port thereon, and the wind speed adjustment signal of the fan_ctl control program port may be adjusted to a corresponding pulse signal through a first pin 141 (such as a PWM pin) and transmitted to the fan 10 to adjust the wind speed of the fan 10; the second circuit module 13 may be a control circuit, the second control terminal 131 may be a Data data sending terminal thereon, and the light effect signal of the Data data sending terminal may be received and transmitted to the light-emitting element 12 through a second pin 142 (such as a Data data receiving pin) to adjust the light effect of the light-emitting element 12. The first connector 14 may include a connector housing and a first pin 141 and a second pin 142 disposed thereon, and in order to improve the integration of the fan 10, the first circuit module 11 and the second circuit module 13 may be disposed on the first connector 14.

[0035] The first pin 141 of the first connector 14, the first control terminal 111 of the first circuit module 11 and the fan 10 can be signal-connected, and the first pin 141 can transmit air volume signals with different first states to the fan 10 through the first control terminal 111 to adjust the air volume of the fan 10; the second pin 142 of the first connector 14, the second control terminal 131 of the second circuit module 13 and the light-emitting component 12 can be signal-connected, and the second pin 142 can transmit light-emitting characteristic signals with different second states to the light-emitting component 12 through the second control terminal 131 to adjust the light-emitting characteristics of the light-emitting component 12, and the light-emitting characteristics may include but are not limited to the brightness, color, light density, flickering frequency, etc. of the light emitted by the light-emitting component 12; in this way, the air volume of the fan 10 can be adjusted, and different light effects can be generated around the fan 10 through the light-emitting component 12 to increase the aesthetics of the fan 10. In addition, the same first connector 14 can simultaneously realize the air volume adjustment and light effect adjustment of the fan 10, so as to be able to connect with other devices that can emit air volume signals and light-emitting characteristic signals (such as the electronic device mentioned below) once through the second connector to complete the assembly, thereby reducing the number of connections. If the connection direction is wrong, a disconnection and a connection operation can be performed to complete the assembly again, thereby reducing the number of disconnections and connections in the wrong connection state, thereby improving the assembly efficiency.

[0036] In the specific implementation of the present disclosure, the fan 10 may also be provided with a third connector, and the third connector may be provided with a third circuit module 11. The third circuit module 11 may have the same or similar structure or function as the second circuit module 13, so as to change the light-emitting characteristics of the light-emitting element. The difference is that the changed light-emitting characteristics may not be completely the same, so as to increase the presentation mode of the light effect. The setting of the third circuit module 11 may be a reserved design, or may be adjusted by the user, so that the user may personalize it.

[0037] In some embodiments, the first connector 14 is used to electrically connect to a target device; wherein the target device is capable of sending a signal to control the first circuit module 11 to change a first state; and / or the target device is capable of sending a signal to control the second circuit module 13 to change a second state.

[0038] The target device may be a server, a computer host, or other electronic device that can send a signal having a first state and a signal having a second state. The processing device such as a circuit board of the target device can send a signal to control the first circuit module 11 to change the first state and / or a signal to control the second circuit module 13 to change the second state. Exemplary: The target device may be a computer host, the housing of the computer host may be a transparent housing, the fan 10 may be arranged in the transparent housing, and the circuit board of the computer host may send a signal to control the first circuit module 11 to change the first state and / or a signal to control the second circuit module 13 to change the second state, so as to control the air volume adjustment of the fan 10 and / or the light effect adjustment of the light emitting element 12. When the fan 10 is working, the heat dissipation efficiency inside the transparent housing of the computer host can be accelerated, and the light effect emitted by the light emitting element 12 can be presented through the transparent housing to enhance the visual effect of the computer host.

[0039] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the first circuit module 11 may further include: a first grounding terminal 112 that can ground the first circuit module 11; the second circuit module 13 may further include: a second grounding terminal 132 that can ground the second circuit module 13; the first connector 14 may further include: a third pin 143 and a fourth pin 144, the third pin 143 is electrically connected to the first grounding terminal 112, and the fourth pin 144 is electrically connected to the second grounding terminal 132. In this way, the first circuit module 11, the second circuit module 13 and the first connector 14 can all be connected to the earth, thereby improving the safety of the fan 10 when in use.

[0040] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 As shown, the first ground terminal 112 can be connected to the second ground terminal 132; the third pin 143 can be the same pin as the fourth pin 144. In other words, the first ground terminal 112 and the second ground terminal 132 can share the same pin, so as to reduce the circuit settings and simplify the structure of the first connector 14.

[0041] In some embodiments, see Figures 1 to 3As shown, the first circuit module 11 may also include: a speed detection terminal 113 for detecting the speed of the fan 10; the first connector 14 may also include: a fifth pin 145, the fifth pin 145 may be electrically connected to the speed detection terminal 113, and may be signal-connected to the first control terminal 111. It can also be said that the speed sensor 114 provided on the fan 10 can sense the wind speed sent by the fan 10, and the fifth pin 145 can transmit the detected wind speed to the speed detection terminal 113 (such as: TAC signal terminal), and then the detected wind speed can be calculated by the first circuit module 11 to send a signal of the first state of adjusting the air volume to the fan 10 through the fan_ctl control program port, so that the air volume of the fan 10 can be adjusted in real time, so that the air volume sent by the fan 10 meets the air volume requirement of the current environment. Exemplary: the fan_ctl control program port can dynamically adjust the speed of the fan 10 according to the set threshold and the detected wind speed, for example; when the detected wind speed is less than the threshold, the speed of the fan 10 is increased.

[0042] Here, the wind speed sensor may be a mechanical wind speed sensor, an ultrasonic wind speed sensor, or other sensors capable of detecting wind speed; the fifth pin 145 may be a sensor pin of the wind speed sensor applicable to the rotation speed detection terminal 113 .

[0043] In some embodiments, see Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the first connector 14 may further include: a sixth pin 146 and a seventh pin 147, the sixth pin 146 is electrically connected to the fan 10, and the seventh pin 147 is electrically connected to the light emitting element 12. In this way, the sixth pin 146 can supply power to the fan 10 to rotate the fan 10, and the seventh pin 147 can supply power to the light emitting element 12 to emit light.

[0044] In some embodiments, see Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the first connector 14 may be provided with a plurality of plug-in posts 148, and the plurality of plug-in posts 148 may be provided with a first pin 141, a second pin 142, a third pin 143, a fourth pin 144, a fifth pin 145, a sixth pin 146, and a seventh pin 147. In this way, a target device that can issue an adjustment of air volume (such as the second connector on the electronic device hereinafter) can be connected to the first connector 14 by plugging, and the plugging method is convenient and fast, thereby further improving assembly efficiency.

[0045] In the specific implementation process, the first connector 14 can be as follows Figure 4 and Figure 5The one shown is a whole, with multiple plug-in posts 148 arranged on one side of the first connector 14, so that it can be plugged in with the second connector or other connection structures at one time; it can also include multiple sub-connectors connected to each other by bonding, welding, etc., with multiple plug-in posts 148 dispersedly arranged on multiple sub-connectors, and multiple plug-in posts 148 are located on one side of the first connector 14, so that it can be plugged in with the second connector or other connection structures at one time. In addition, multiple plug-in posts 148 can be arranged in one row or in multiple rows.

[0046] It can be understood that when the third pin 143 and the fourth pin 144 are the same pin, both correspond to the same plug-in column 148 , so that the number of the plug-in columns 148 can be reduced.

[0047] In some embodiments, see Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a limiting portion 149 may be further provided on one side of the first connector 14, and a plug-in space may be provided between the limiting portion 149 and the plug-in column 148, and the limiting portion 149 may have a squeezing force to squeeze the plug-in space. In this way, when the first connector 14 and the second connector are plugged into each other, at least a portion of the second connector is located in the plug-in space, and the limiting portion 149 may squeeze the second connector in the direction of the plug-in column 148, so that the plug-in column 148 and the second connector are more firmly connected; and when the second connector is pulled out from the first connector 14, the portion of the limiting portion 149 corresponding to the plug-in space may at least be deformed in a direction away from the plug-in space, so as to reduce the resistance to the second connector being pulled out from the first connector 14.

[0048] Here, see Figures 3 to 5 As shown, one end of the limiting portion 149 can be connected to the first connector 14, and the other end is opposite to the plug-in space, and an elastic extrusion portion can be provided on one side of the other end corresponding to the plug-in space, so that the elastic extrusion portion can be compressed to squeeze the second connector in the plug-in space, and can be restored to its original state after the second connector is separated from the first connector 14, so as to prepare for the squeezing after the next plug-in. In addition, the number of limiting portions 149 can be as follows Figure 4 The one shown in , or Figure 5 The two shown in the figure can, of course, be more. When the number is greater than two, multiple limiting portions 149 can squeeze the second connector at different positions to further make the connection between the second connector and the first connector 14 more secure.
