[0030] Example 1

[0031] This embodiment provides a fan blade structure to solve the problem of poor noise reduction effect or insufficient wind gathering ability of the fan blade in the related art.

[0032] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 A fan blade structure includes a transmission assembly 100 and a blade 200. The transmission assembly 100 includes a transmission shaft 110. A plurality of blades 200 are provided, and the plurality of blades 200 are evenly distributed circumferentially on the transmission assembly 100. The connection between the blade 200 and the transmission shaft 110 is set as an inner guide line 210, the line between the two end points of the inner guide line 210 is set as a first straight line, the line-surface angle between the first straight line and the horizontal plane is set as a guide angle α, and the value range of the guide angle α satisfies: 35°≤α≤45°.

[0033] Specifically, when the fan blade structure of this embodiment is in use, the fan blade structure of this embodiment is loaded onto a fan, and the fan drives the blades 200 to rotate through the transmission shaft 110, so that the blades 200 deliver air.

[0034] In the fan blade structure, the design of the inner guide line 210 can affect the attachment and separation between the airflow and the blade 200, thereby changing the aerodynamic performance of the blade 200. The line-surface angle between the inner guide line 210 and the horizontal plane is set to a guide angle α. Within a reasonable range, the larger the guide angle α, the smaller the resistance after the wind cuts into the fan blade, the greater the pressure of the fan blade, that is, the stronger the air supply capacity of the fan blade, and correspondingly, the noise will also increase.

[0035] In this embodiment, the value range of the guide angle α is limited to between 35° and 45°, so that in a 14-inch fan blade structure, while ensuring the air supply capacity of the blade 200, the noise of the blade 200 during rotation can be reduced, achieving a silent and wind-gathering effect.

[0036] In some embodiments, for example, Figure 2 As shown, the blade 200 is provided with a vertex 240 at a position away from the transmission shaft 110, and the blade 200 includes a first outer guide line 220 and a second outer guide line 230. The first outer guide line 220 is an arc between an end point of the inner guide line 210 and the vertex 240, and the second outer guide line 230 is an arc between an end point on the inner guide line 210 away from the first outer guide line 220 and the vertex 240. The shape of the blade 200 is restricted by the inner guide line 210, the first outer guide line 220, and the second outer guide line 230, so that the blade 200 is set to be a closed shape surrounded by the inner guide line 210, the first outer guide line 220, and the second outer guide line 230.

[0037] Specifically, the outer guide line is the outline of the edge of the blade 200, the first outer guide line 220 is the leading edge of the blade 200, and the second outer guide line 230 is the trailing edge of the blade 200. Among them, the trailing edge of the blade 200 has a significant impact on the overall aerodynamic performance of the fan, especially in reducing noise and improving efficiency. Setting the first outer guide line 220 and the second outer guide line 230 as arcs can effectively reduce the noise of the blade 200 of this embodiment when rotating, and improve the silent effect of this embodiment. In addition, it can also cooperate with the inner guide line 210 and the guide angle to further improve the wind gathering effect of this embodiment.

[0038] In some embodiments, for example, Figure 2 As shown, the first outer guide line 220 is set as an arc line, and the curve diameter of the first outer guide line 220 is set to L1, which satisfies: 155mm≤L1≤160mm. Limiting the first outer guide line 220 means limiting the shape of the leading edge of the blade 200.

[0039] In some embodiments, for example, Figure 2As shown, the second outer guide line 230 is set as an arc line, and the curve diameter of the second outer guide line 230 is set to L2, which satisfies: 165mm≤L2≤170mm. The second outer guide line 230 is restricted, that is, the trailing edge of the blade 200 is restricted. Through the cooperation of the first outer guide line 220 and the second outer guide line 230, the shapes of the leading edge and the trailing edge of the blade 200 are optimized, so that this embodiment can effectively reduce the noise generated when the airflow contacts the leading edge of the blade 200 in a 14-inch fan, and reduce the turbulence and eddy current generated when the airflow separates from the trailing edge of the blade 200, thereby further reducing the noise.

[0040] In addition, by restricting the first outer guide line 220 and the second outer guide line 230 of the blade 200, the present embodiment can control the separation point of the airflow on the surface of the blade 200, thereby improving the dynamic performance of the airflow, increasing the wind pressure and air volume, and improving the wind gathering effect of the fan, thereby improving the practicality of the present embodiment.

[0041] Furthermore, by setting the first outer guide line 220 to a circular arc with a diameter between 155 mm and 160 mm, and setting the second outer guide line 230 to a circular arc with a diameter between 165 mm and 170 mm, the friction resistance between the blade 200 and the air can be reduced by controlling the shape of the outer guide lines, thereby improving the overall efficiency of the fan blade structure of this embodiment.

[0042] In some embodiments, for example, the thickness of the blade 200 gradually decreases along the direction of the fan blade from close to the transmission shaft 110 to away from the transmission shaft 110. By limiting the inner guide line 210, the first outer guide line 220, and the second outer guide line 230 of the blade 200, the wind pressure and wind volume generated by the blade 200 when rotating can be increased, and accordingly, the force borne by the blade 200 will also increase. The thickness of the blade 200 is limited so that it can match the shape of the blade 200, ensuring that the blade 200 can rotate stably and reliably.

[0043] It is understandable that the thickness of the blade 200 near the transmission shaft 110 is relatively large, which can ensure the overall strength of the blade 200 and the strength of the connection, ensure the reliability of the blade 200 during operation, and extend the service life of this embodiment. The thickness of the blade 200 gradually decreases from the direction close to the transmission shaft 110 to the direction away from the transmission shaft 110, which helps to reduce the thickness of the boundary layer on the surface of the blade 200, thereby reducing airflow separation, reducing resistance, and improving the efficiency of the fan. The thin section at the tip of the blade 200 can more effectively guide the airflow and reduce the generation of turbulence and eddy currents.

[0044] The variable cross-section blade 200 design enables the blade 200 of this embodiment to adapt to working environments under different circumstances. The thickness of the blade 200 gradually decreases, which can also reduce the overall weight of the blade 200, reduce production costs, and reduce the energy required by the fan to drive the blade 200, thereby improving the overall performance of the fan.

[0045] In some embodiments, the material of the blade 200 is set to acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer (ABS) plastic. The thickness of the blade 200 near the transmission shaft 110 is set to B, satisfying: 1.8mm≤B≤1.9mm. ABS plastic is composed of three different monomer units, namely acrylonitrile (Acrylonitrile), which is used to give ABS plastic good chemical stability and a certain surface hardness; butadiene (Butadiene), which is used to provide high elasticity and impact resistance; styrene (Styrene), which is used to give ABS plastic good processing performance and surface gloss.

[0046] In summary, ABS plastic has the characteristics of high strength, good toughness, and easy processing and molding, so that the thickness of the blade 200 of this embodiment near the transmission shaft 110 in a 14-inch fan is set to between 1.8mm and 1.9mm, which can meet the strength requirements of the blade 200, ensuring that the blade 200 is light and thin while reducing the production difficulty of this embodiment. Good chemical corrosion resistance and heat resistance can extend the service life of this embodiment and ensure the working stability of the blade 200. Good dimensional stability facilitates precise control of the dimensional data of various parts of the blade 200 during production and processing. Easy to color, the surface can be chrome-plated and painted, which improves the aesthetics and chemical stability of the blade 200. Excellent electrical insulation performance can ensure the safety of this embodiment.

[0047] In some embodiments, for example, the thickness of the blade 200 at a position away from the transmission shaft 110 is set to C, satisfying: C = 1.5 mm. The thickness of the end of the blade 200 is limited so that the airflow separation of the blade 200 in the 14-inch fan is appropriate, the air resistance when the blade 200 rotates is reduced, and the efficiency of the fan is improved.

[0048] In some embodiments, the material of the blade 200 is exemplarily set to polypropylene (PP) hardened plastic. The thickness of the blade 200 at a position close to the transmission shaft 110 is set to B, satisfying: 1.9 mm ≤ B ≤ 2.0 mm.

[0049] Polypropylene (PP) is a common thermoplastic with good chemical stability, heat resistance and electrical insulation, but its hardness and rigidity are relatively low. In actual production, in order to improve the physical properties of polypropylene plastics, polypropylene materials are usually modified to increase their hardness and rigidity.

[0050] In the present embodiment, the hardening method of polypropylene is not limited. Exemplary, adding inorganic fillers such as calcium carbonate, talcum powder, glass fiber, mica, etc. to polypropylene can significantly improve the hardness and rigidity of polypropylene. In addition, polypropylene is blended with other rigid plastics such as polyamide (PA), polycarbonate (PC), polyester (PET), etc. to improve its hardness and heat resistance. Furthermore, by grafting modification, such as polypropylene grafted maleic anhydride (PP-g-MAH), the compatibility of polypropylene and filler can be improved, and the hardness and mechanical properties of the material can be further improved. Others, by physical methods such as heat treatment, stretching, etc., the hardness of polypropylene can also be improved to a certain extent.

[0051] In some embodiments, illustratively, the thickness of the blade 200 at a position away from the transmission shaft 110 is set to C, satisfying: 1.5 mm≤C≤1.6 mm.

[0052] In the 14-inch fan, a blade 200 made of polypropylene hardened plastic is used. The thickness of the blade 200 close to the transmission shaft 110 is set between 1.9 mm and 2.0 mm to ensure the overall strength of the blade 200 and the strength of the connection. The thickness of the blade 200 away from the transmission shaft 110 is set between 1.5 mm and 1.6 mm to ensure the overall performance of the blade 200.

[0053] Example 2

[0054] This embodiment also provides a fan, comprising a motor, a housing, and a blade structure in any one of the above embodiments, wherein the blade structure can be rotatably mounted in the housing, and the motor is used to drive the blade structure to rotate. The number of stacks of the motor is set to A, and the range of the number of stacks of the motor satisfies: 15≤A≤18; and the number of stacks of the motor is positively correlated with the size of the guide angle.

[0055] This embodiment has the fan blade structure of any of the above embodiments, and also has all the beneficial effects of the above fan blade structures, which will not be described in detail here.

[0056] The number of motor stacks usually refers to the number of core layers of the rotor or stator in the motor. In the construction of the motor, the stator and rotor are stacked by layers of silicon steel sheets (also called iron core sheets), which are separated by insulating materials to reduce eddy current losses. The number of motor stacks refers to the number of layers of these silicon steel sheets, that is, the thickness of the core. The number of motor stacks directly affects the performance of the motor. Generally speaking, the more stacks, the thicker the core, which means greater power and torque.

[0057] In this embodiment, the larger the guide angle of the blade 200 is, the more suitable the number of motor stacks is. In a 14-inch fan, the specific relationship between the number of motor stacks and the guide angle α of the blade 200 is shown in the following table:

[0058] Motor stacking number 15 16 17 18 Leading angle α° 35-37 37-39 38-42 41-45

[0059] In this way, the number of stacking of the motor is ensured to be compatible with the guide angle of the blade 200, so as to ensure the silent effect and wind gathering effect of the blade 200.

[0060] In some embodiments, illustratively, the inner guide line 210 of the blade 200 is also set as an arc, and the radius of curvature of the inner guide line 210 has an important influence on the guidance of air movement. Specifically, the larger the radius of curvature of the inner guide line 210, the more concentrated the air is toward the center of the fan blade structure under the guidance of the inner wall of the blade 200 after the wind cuts into the blade 200. On this basis, in a 14-inch fan, the radius of curvature of the inner guide line 210 is set to ρ, satisfying 0.16≤ρ≤0.18, and the radius of curvature of the inner guide line 210 is set between 0.16 and 0.18, which can further improve the wind gathering effect of this embodiment.

[0061] The above description is only the preferred embodiment of the utility model, and is not intended to limit the utility model. For those skilled in the art, the utility model can have various modifications and changes. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the utility model shall be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
