These directions or positional relationships are only used to facilitate the description of the present invention and to simplify the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or component referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction. Therefore, they should not be understood as limitations on the present invention.
[0033] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5As shown, it shows the specific structure of the fan frame provided by the embodiment of the present invention. The fan frame includes an annular support frame 10, the annular support frame 10 has a hollow cavity 11, and a bottom tray 20 is provided on the inner lower side of the hollow cavity 11. The outer peripheral side wall of the bottom tray 20 and the inner peripheral side wall of the annular support frame 10 are connected by support ribs 30; the support ribs 30 are in an arc-shaped structure, and there are a plurality of support ribs 30. The plurality of support ribs 30 are uniformly spaced along the circumferential direction of the bottom tray 20. The two ends of the support ribs 30 are respectively connected to the outer peripheral side wall of the bottom tray 20 and the inner peripheral side wall of the annular support frame 10. In addition, the support ribs 30 are designed as an arc-shaped structure, which can guide and pressurize the airflow, enhance the flow rate, and improve the heat dissipation effect.
[0034] The bottom tray 20 includes a main body 21, a shaft connection portion 22 and an annular positioning protrusion 23, wherein the annular positioning protrusion 23 is integrally protruded upward from the circumference of the upper end of the main body 21, and the shaft connection portion 22 is integrally protruded upward from the middle portion of the upper end of the main body 21. The upper end of the shaft connection portion 22 extends upward from the annular positioning protrusion 23 and is located in the hollow cavity 11. The outer peripheral side wall of the shaft connection portion 22 is provided with a first annular positioning groove 221, a second annular positioning groove 222, a third annular positioning groove 223 and a fourth annular positioning groove 224 extending in the circumferential direction. The first annular positioning groove 221, the second annular positioning groove 222, the third annular positioning groove 223 and the fourth annular positioning groove 224 are arranged in sequence from top to bottom; in this way, the shaft connection portion 22 can enhance the axial connection stability with the fan through the multiple annular positioning grooves arranged in sequence in the axial direction, thereby improving the connection stability and avoiding the phenomenon of shaking and unstable operation caused by loose connection.
[0035] Preferably, in this embodiment, the cross-section of the first annular positioning groove 221 is a rectangular structure, and the cross-sections of the second annular positioning groove 222, the third annular positioning groove 223 and the fourth annular positioning groove 224 are all semicircular structures; the lower side of the fourth annular positioning groove 224 is provided with an annular positioning step 228 extending along the circumferential direction on the outer peripheral side wall of the shaft connection part 22 to achieve the function of limiting positioning.
[0036] The shaft connection portion 22 has a shaft connection hole 225. The upper end of the shaft connection hole 225 extends through the upper surface of the shaft connection portion 22, and the lower end of the shaft connection hole 225 extends through the lower surface of the main body portion 21.

[0037] The annular support frame 10 has an annular mounting portion 12 integrally protruding outward from both the upper and lower sides of the outer peripheral sidewall. The annular mounting portion 12 is provided with a plurality of mounting holes 121. The mounting holes 121 are used to securely mount the fan frame as a whole to an external structure, and the mounting holes 121 can be installed and connected using common fixing parts such as screws. In addition, in this embodiment, flattened portions 122 are provided on both opposite sides of the outer peripheral sidewall of the annular mounting portion 12. The flattened portions 122 extend to the outer peripheral sidewall of the annular support frame 10. This allows the flattened portions 122 to better contact and position the fan frame with a flat surface on the external structure, thereby preventing it from sliding and reducing its overall space occupation.
[0038] To sum up, the design focus of the present invention is that it is mainly achieved by arranging a first annular positioning groove, a second annular positioning groove, a third annular positioning groove and a fourth annular positioning groove extending in the circumferential direction on the outer peripheral side wall of the shaft connection part, and the first annular positioning groove, the second annular positioning groove, the third annular positioning groove and the fourth annular positioning groove are arranged in sequence from top to bottom. In this way, the shaft connection part can enhance the axial connection stability with the fan through the multiple annular positioning grooves arranged in sequence in the axial direction, thereby improving the connection stability and avoiding the phenomenon of shaking and unstable operation caused by loose connection.
