[0031] In the embodiments of the present invention, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "installed," "connected," "connected," "fixed," etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they may refer to fixed connection, detachable connection, or integration; mechanical connection, electrical connection; direct connection, indirect connection through an intermediate medium; internal communication between two components, or interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in the embodiments of the present invention based on specific circumstances.

[0032] In one embodiment of the present invention, according to Figure 1-4 As shown, a fan structure includes a base 100; the top of the base 100 is used to connect to a fixed surface; a fan cover 200, and a plurality of fan blades 210 are evenly arranged on the outer wall of the fan cover 200 in a circumferential direction. The fan cover 200 is partially sleeved on the bottom of the base 100, and an installation cavity 300 is formed between the fan cover 200 and the bottom of the base 100. A DC motor and a PCB circuit board 500 are provided inside the installation cavity 300, and the DC motor is electrically connected to the PCB circuit board 500; one end of the DC motor is connected to the base 100, and the other end is connected to the fan cover 200. The DC motor drives the fan cover 200 to rotate, thereby driving the fan blades 210 to rotate and blow air.

[0033] Specifically, the DC motor is connected to the fan cover 200 and can drive it to rotate. The fan cover 200 is provided with fan blades 210, which can drive the fan blades 210 to rotate and blow air.

[0034] Furthermore, by providing a DC motor instead of the AC motor used in the traditional fan, the volume and weight are reduced, which is more in line with the simplicity and lightweight requirements of current users. At the same time, the internal structure is relatively simple and the assembly is easy.

[0035] In another embodiment of the present invention, according to Figure 3 As shown, the base 100 includes a connecting shaft 110; the connecting shaft 110 extends downward to the installation cavity 300 and is connected to the installation cavity 300, and the DC motor includes a rotor 410, a stator 420 and a rotating shaft 430; the rotor 410 is arranged inside the connecting shaft 110, the rotating shaft 430 is passed through the rotor 410, the stator 420 is arranged on the outer wall of the connecting shaft 110, the stator 420 is electrically connected to the PCB circuit board 500, and one end of the rotating shaft 430 is connected to the fan cover 200.

[0036] Specifically, through electromagnetic induction, when power is supplied to the external stator 420, it drives the internal rotor 410 to rotate, thereby driving the rotation shaft 430 to rotate. The rotation shaft 430 is connected to the center of the fan cover 200, driving the fan cover 200 to rotate, and further driving the fan blades 210 to rotate and blow air. Compared to the traditional structure where the base 100 and the motor are connected only by a connector, the structure of the present utility model is more stable and firm.

[0037] Furthermore, a bearing 440 is further provided in the connecting shaft 110, and the rotating shaft 430 passes through the bearing 440. The bearing 440 can play a role of supporting and reducing friction.

[0038] In another embodiment of the present invention, according to Figure 3 As shown, a connecting portion 431 is provided at the bottom of the rotating shaft 430, and a connecting cavity 220 is provided at the bottom of the fan cover 200, and the connecting portion 431 is provided in the connecting cavity 220. Specifically, a limiting member can be provided at the upper portion of the connecting cavity 220, which passes through the rotating shaft 430 and covers the opening of the connecting cavity 220, thereby limiting the connecting portion 431 in the connecting cavity 220. At the same time, the connecting portion 431 and the connecting cavity 220 can be connected by interference fit, or can be engaged by a rotating member, so that the fan cover 200 and the connecting portion 431 rotate together.

[0039] Furthermore, the connecting portion 431 and the connecting cavity 220 may be injection molded twice and rotated together.

[0040] In another embodiment of the present invention, according to Figure 3 and 4 As shown, the connection shaft 110 is located at the center of the base 100, and a positioning protrusion 111 is provided on the outer wall of the connection shaft 110. Specifically, the positioning protrusion 111 can facilitate positioning during assembly and perform rapid installation.

[0041] In another embodiment of the present invention, according to Figure 1-4 As shown, each fan blade 210 is tilted downward and is equipped with multiple reinforcing ribs 211, distributed on both the front and back surfaces of the fan blade 210. Specifically, the downward tilt of the fan blade 210 can better guide air flow and increase air intake. It also reduces noise and improves overall stability. Furthermore, the presence of reinforcing ribs 211 on both the front and back surfaces of the fan blade 210 increases its strength.

[0042] In another embodiment of the present invention, according to Figure 1As shown, the top of the base 100 is provided with a plurality of fixing parts 120, each of which is provided with a screw hole 121. A hook 130 is provided on one of the fixing parts 120. Specifically, the fixing part 120 is used to be mounted on a fixed surface. The hook 130 can be used for hanging and placing.

[0043] In another embodiment of the present invention, according to Figure 3 and 4 As shown, the connection between the connecting shaft 110 and the base 100 is provided with a plurality of first ribs 140. Each first rib 140 is connected to the connecting shaft 110 at one end and to the base 100 at the other end. A plurality of second ribs 230 are provided within the fan cover 200. Each second rib 230 is connected to the inner bottom surface of the fan cover 200 at one end and to the inner side surface of the fan cover 200 at the other end. Specifically, the primary function of the first ribs 140 and the second ribs 230 is to increase strength. Because fans are often made of plastic to reduce weight, which can be insufficient in strength during use, ribs or reinforcing ribs 211 are required to provide additional strength.

[0044] In another embodiment of the present invention, according to Figure 3 As shown, a clamping groove 432 is provided at one end of the rotating shaft 430, and a clamping member (not shown) is provided in the connecting shaft 110. The clamping member cooperates with the clamping groove 432 to limit the rotating shaft 430. Specifically, the clamping member is provided in the connecting shaft 110, mainly to limit the rotating shaft 430 and prevent the rotating shaft 430 from shifting.

[0045] The above description further details the present invention in conjunction with specific preferred embodiments, and should not be construed as limiting the specific implementation of the present invention to these descriptions. A person skilled in the art of the present invention will appreciate that its architecture is flexible and adaptable, allowing for the development of a series of products without departing from the present invention's concept. Simple deductions or substitutions should be considered within the scope of patent protection for the present invention as defined by the submitted claims.
