[0038] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application pertains. The terms used herein in the specification of this application are for the purpose of describing specific embodiments only and are not intended to limit this application.

[0039] Due to design and material limitations, traditional fan blades may suffer from poor aerodynamic performance, heavy weight, and low efficiency. These issues affect the overall performance and application range of the fan, leading to increased operating costs and failing to meet energy conservation and emission reduction requirements.

[0040] In view of this, the utility model proposes a blade with a bionic front kiss. Figure 1-8 For an embodiment of a blade with a bionic front kiss provided by the present invention, please refer to Figure 1-8The leaf 100 has an inner side close to the petiole 1 and an outer side away from the petiole 1. The outer side of the leaf 100 is provided with a bionic front kiss 3 connected to its outer edge 2. The bionic front kiss 3 is a sheet-like structure and protrudes forward from the front end of the outer edge 2 (that is, the top of the leading edge 4); wherein, the lower side of the bionic front kiss 3 is connected to the outer edge 2, and the width of the bionic front kiss 3 gradually increases and then gradually decreases from its front end to the rear end.

[0041] In the technical solution of the present invention, by imitating the streamlined features of the dolphin's snout, this shape can minimize the resistance of the fluid and reduce energy loss. The blade 100 in this solution adopts a bionic front snout 3 similar to the dolphin's snout. This design can greatly reduce the resistance to air flow. During the rotation of the fan blade 100, this design enables the blade 100 to capture wind energy more efficiently, reduce the energy loss caused by wind resistance, and thus improve the overall efficiency of the fan.

[0042] To better mimic the structure of a dolphin's snout, see Figure 2 In one embodiment of the present invention, the bionic front snout 3 is divided into a front section 31, a middle section 32 and a rear section 33 from its front end to its rear end. The width of the front section 31 is a2, where 1≦a2≦5, in mm. The middle section 32 reaches the maximum width a of the bionic front snout 3 at a position where it is a length b2 from the front end. max , where 2≦b2≦8, unit is mm. The rear section 33 has the minimum width a of the bionic front kiss 3 min ; Among them, 1≦a min ≦4, unit: mm. The total length of the bionic front kiss 3 is B, 5≦B≦40, unit: mm.

[0043] The Bionic Front Kiss 3 imitates the dolphin's kiss and has the following advantages.

[0044] Streamlined Design: The dolphin's snout features a streamlined shape, which minimizes water resistance. When swimming rapidly, the dolphin's streamlined snout enables it to move through the water more efficiently, reducing energy loss. The fan's streamlined design, inspired by the dolphin's snout, significantly reduces air flow resistance. As the fan blades 100 rotate, this design allows them to more efficiently capture wind energy, reducing energy loss due to wind resistance and thereby improving the fan's overall efficiency.

[0045] Smooth Surface: The dolphin's skin is smooth, further reducing frictional resistance. Combined with its snout, this smooth surface design allows the dolphin to swim more smoothly through the water. The streamlined shape of the snout allows air to flow smoothly over the leading edge 4 of the blade 100, reducing turbulence and eddies caused by airflow separation. This not only helps reduce noise levels during operation but also reduces mechanical stress caused by vibration, extending the service life of the blade 100.

[0046] Adaptability to Different Speeds: Whether swimming at low speeds or sprinting at high speeds, the dolphin's snout adapts perfectly to changing water currents, maintaining stability and efficiency. The bionic design of the dolphin's snout enables the wind turbine blades 100 to adapt to varying wind speeds. Whether in slow or high winds, the blades 100 maintain a stable operating state, ensuring efficient operation of the wind turbine at all speeds. This adaptability is crucial for improving the reliability and stability of the wind turbine.

[0047] Protection Mechanism: The dolphin's snout acts as a buffer, protecting it from damage while swimming or hunting. While the snout itself doesn't directly enhance mechanical strength, biomimetic design can inspire a similar buffer structure at the top of the leading edge 4 of the blade 100 to mitigate impacts from extreme environmental conditions (such as strong winds, hail, firefighting, rain, and snow). This can protect the blade 100 from damage to a certain extent, improving its durability.

[0048] Unique Appearance: The snout, a prominent feature of dolphins, adds a unique charm to them, making them easier to identify and distinguish. The bionic dolphin snout design gives the wind turbine blade 100 a unique appearance, enhancing its aesthetic appeal. This design also makes the blade 100 more visually striking, helping to enhance the wind turbine's recognition and identification.

[0049] In summary, the bionic dolphin snout design at the top of the leading edge 4 of the blade 100 offers numerous benefits, including reduced wind resistance, lower noise and vibration, adaptability to varying wind speeds, enhanced structural strength and durability, and improved aesthetics and recognition. These advantages will contribute to enhanced overall wind turbine performance and operating efficiency.

[0050] See also Figure 3-9 In one embodiment of the present invention, the curved surface of the blade is biomimetic in design. When the blade 100 is installed on the impeller, the cross-sectional parameters of the blade 100 at the radius ∅930 with the impeller rotation axis as the center are: Cmax is 4.1mm, e is 35.5mm, b is 180.7mm, B 1A 2 degrees, B 2Ais 37 degrees, ζi is 25 degrees; the cross-sectional parameters of blade 100 at radius ∅780 are: Cmax is 3mm, e is 30.9mm, b is 147.2mm, B 1A 5 degrees, B 2A is 30 degrees, ζi is 22 degrees; the cross-sectional parameters of blade 100 at radius ∅630 are: Cmax is 3.3mm, e is 30.7mm, b is 137.2mm, B 1A 5 degrees, B 2A is 35 degrees, ζi is 25 degrees; the cross-sectional parameters of blade 100 at radius ∅480 are: Cmax is 3.8mm, e is 39.2mm, b is 126.7mm, B 1A 8 degrees, B 2A is 43 degrees, ζi is 33 degrees; the cross-sectional parameters of blade 100 at radius ∅330 are: Cmax is 4.8mm, e is 49.3mm, b is 114.6mm, B 1A is 16 degrees, B 2A is 51 degrees, ζi is 41 degrees;

[0051] Where Cmax: C is the airfoil thickness, the distance between the normal line of the airfoil centerline and the intersection of the airfoil contour line, that is, the diameter of the airfoil inscribed circle, and the maximum value of the airfoil thickness is called the maximum airfoil thickness Cmax;

[0052] e: Maximum thickness position, the distance from the leading edge of the airfoil to the maximum thickness of the airfoil along the chord direction;

[0053] b: chord length, the length of the chord of the wing;

[0054] B 1A : The airfoil inlet geometric angle is the angle between the tangent line through the leading edge of the airfoil to the airfoil centerline and the forehead line (lower horizontal line);

[0055] B 2A : The airfoil inlet geometric angle is the angle between the tangent line through the airfoil trailing edge point to the airfoil midline and the rear forehead line (upper horizontal line);

[0056] ζi: airfoil installation angle, which is the angle between the chord and the cascade front line.

[0057] It should be noted that the role of bionic surface design is to imitate the biological structure design of birayfin fish in nature to achieve the following effects.

[0058] Improved aerodynamic performance: Bionic surface design mimics the curved shapes of organisms found in nature (such as bird wings and fish fins). These shapes have excellent fluid dynamics through long periods of natural selection and evolution. Applying these curved shapes to axial flow impellers optimizes the fluid dynamics of the blade 100, reducing resistance and energy consumption during fluid flow, thereby improving the impeller's aerodynamic efficiency and output power.

[0059] Noise Reduction: The bionic curved surface design can more effectively control the flow of fluid on the surface of the blade 100, reducing the occurrence of unstable flow phenomena such as eddy currents and turbulence. These unstable flow phenomena are one of the main causes of fluid machinery noise. Therefore, the bionic curved surface design helps to reduce the noise level of axial flow impellers, making them more environmentally friendly and energy-saving.

[0060] Enhanced structural stability: Bionic surface designs often have more reasonable stress and strength distribution, which helps enhance the structural stability and durability of axial flow impellers. Under high loads or harsh operating conditions, the bionic surface design can better withstand the impact and vibration of the fluid, thereby extending the service life of the impeller.

[0061] Optimizing flow and pressure distribution: The bionic curved surface design allows for fine-tuning of the curved shape of the blade 100 based on actual operating conditions to achieve more uniform flow and pressure distribution. This helps reduce turbulence and backflow within the impeller, improving flow efficiency and stability.

[0062] Broadening the scope of applications: Due to the advantages of bionic surface design in aerodynamic performance, noise control, and structural stability, axial flow impellers can be applied more widely in various fields. For example, in ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration, axial flow impellers with bionic surface design can provide more efficient, energy-saving, and environmentally friendly solutions.

[0063] The above-described embodiments merely represent several implementation methods of the present application. While the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that a person skilled in the art could make various modifications and improvements without departing from the spirit of the present application, all of which fall within the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present patent application shall be determined by the appended claims.
