[0030] The specific implementation of the utility model is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Figure 1-Figure 6 .
[0031] Example 1, see Figure 1-Figure 4 :
[0032] A support member comprises: a support member body 1 and a spring piece 2, wherein the rear end of the spring piece 2 is integrally formed with the end face of the support member body 1, and the front end of the spring piece 2 is tilted in a direction away from the support member body 1. When the spring piece 2 is squeezed and its front end is close to the support member body 1, the spring piece 2 undergoes elastic deformation and stores elastic potential energy, so that the spring piece 2 has a tendency to move away from the support member body 1, thereby enabling the support member body 1 to support an object.
[0033] The end face edge of the support body 1 has at least one limiting portion 3, and the limiting portion 3 and the spring sheet 2 are respectively located at the two end faces of the support body 1; and the distance between the limiting portion 3 and the front end of the spring sheet 2 is smaller than the distance between the limiting portion 3 and the rear end of the spring sheet 2.
[0034] The spring piece 2 is bent in a direction away from the support body 1 (i.e., the front end of the spring piece 2 is farther away from the support body 1 than the middle of the spring piece 2), ensuring that after the spring piece 2 is squeezed and the front end of the spring piece 2 is close to the support body 1, the spring piece 2 has sufficient elastic potential energy after elastic deformation, so that the support body 1 can support the sealing ring 7, ensuring the supporting effect of the support 100, so that the sealing ring 7 can be movably abutted against other objects, ensuring the sealing effect of the sealing ring 7.
[0035] The support member 100 is made of stainless steel, that is, the support member body 1 , the spring piece 2 and the limiting portion 3 are all made of stainless steel.
[0036] A vortex fan comprises: a pump body 4, an impeller 5, a motor and the support member 100; the impeller 5 is installed in the pump body 4, and the impeller 5 cooperates with the pump body 4 to form an annular wind chamber 6; the impeller 5 is provided with an annular boss 11; a mounting groove 9 is provided in the pump body 4, and a sealing ring 7 and the support member 100 are installed in the mounting groove 9; wherein the support member body 1 abuts against the inner side wall of the sealing ring 7, and the spring piece 2 abuts against the inner side wall of the mounting groove 9, so that the sealing ring 7 can movably abut against the annular boss 11 to seal the annular wind chamber 6.
[0037] As the impeller 5 rotates, the impeller 5 will wear the sealing ring 7, resulting in a gap between the annular boss 11 of the impeller 5 and the sealing ring 7 due to the wear of the sealing ring 7, causing air flow to flow out of the gap, so a support member 100 is installed in the mounting groove 9, and the sealing ring 7 is supported by the support member 100, thereby avoiding the generation of a gap between the sealing ring 7 and the annular boss 11, ensuring the airtightness of the annular air chamber 6 and the efficiency of the fan in sucking and delivering air. At the same time, the support member 100 enables the sealing ring 7 to support the impeller, absorb the vibration generated by the impeller, and reduce the generation of noise.
[0038] The sealing ring 7 is a rubber ring or a plastic ring.
[0039] The limiting portion 3 of the support member 100 movably abuts against the end of the sealing ring 7 to limit the sealing ring 7 from being separated from the installation groove 9 , thereby ensuring that the sealing ring 7 is firmly installed in the installation groove 9 .
[0040] The mounting groove 9 is an annular groove, and at least one support member 100 is installed in the mounting groove 9; when there is one support member 100, the support member 100 can be bent into a ring around the mounting groove 9 and installed in the mounting groove 9; when there are two or more support members 100, each support member 100 is bent into an arc shape and installed in the mounting groove 9.
[0041] The impeller 5 consists of a middle disk, a left blade group and a right blade group. The middle disk and the pump body 4 cooperate to divide the annular air chamber 6 into two parts. The left blade group and the right blade group are arranged back to back on the middle disk, and an annular boss 11 is arranged under the left blade group and the right blade group.
[0042] The output end of the motor is connected to the middle disk of the impeller 5 to drive the impeller 5 to rotate.
[0043] The specific structure of the vortex fan is disclosed in Chinese patent CN202321763210.7 and will not be repeated here.
[0044] Example 2, see Figure 5 :
[0045] The design scheme of this embodiment is basically the same as the design scheme of embodiment 1, except that: a receiving groove 8 is provided at the end of the sealing ring 7 for receiving the limiting portion 3. When the sealing ring 7 and the support member 100 are both placed in the installation groove 9, the limiting portion 3 on the support member 100 is movably abutted against the inside of the receiving groove 8. The limiting portion 3 ensures that the sealing ring 7 will not separate from the sealing ring 7. At the same time, the limiting portion 3 can be placed in the receiving groove 8, and the rear end of the limiting portion 3 will not protrude from the notch of the receiving groove 8, thereby preventing the limiting portion 3 from interfering with the rotation of the impeller 5.
[0046] Example 3, see Figure 6 :
[0047] The design scheme of this embodiment is substantially the same as that of Embodiment 1, except that: an anti-slip groove 10 is provided on the side wall of the mounting groove 9, and the end of the spring piece 2 is movably engaged in the anti-slip groove 10; when the support member 100 is installed in the mounting groove 9, the end of the spring piece 2 can be engaged in the anti-slip groove 10, thereby preventing the support member 100 from detaching from the mounting groove 9 and interfering with the rotation of the impeller 5, thereby ensuring the stable installation of the support member 100.
