[0019] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a low-noise fan structure includes an upper wind cover 1 and a volute 2 connected to each other, a motor 3 is installed on the volute 2, and a sealing ring 8 is provided on the outer wall of the motor 3. The motor 3 is sealed to the volute 2 through the sealing ring 8 to prevent air flow from leaking out through the installation gap and reduce the structural noise generated thereby.
[0020] An impeller 5 is connected to the output shaft 4 of the motor 3, and the impeller 5 is placed below the air inlet of the upper wind cover 1. The inner ring of the air inlet of the upper wind cover 1 is provided with a downward protrusion 6, and the top of the air inlet of the impeller 5 is inserted into the groove formed by the protrusion 6. The distance between the inner wall of the air inlet of the impeller 5 and the inner wall of the protrusion 6 on the upper wind cover 1 is 0.5-1mm. A fixed air inlet duct is formed between the air inlet of the impeller 5 and the upper wind cover 1, which reduces the gap between the inner wall of the upper wind cover 1 and the upper end cover structure of the impeller 5 to improve the efficiency of the fan and reduce noise.
[0021] The distance between the side surface of the upper end cover of the impeller 5 and the inner wall of the upper wind cover 1 is 0.5-1mm. In this way, the two will not cause structural interference due to structural processing errors, and the air volume at the air outlet of the impeller 5 will be prevented from flowing back to the air inlet, thereby improving the efficiency of the fan and reducing the noise caused by backflow.
[0022] A spiral guide plate 7 is provided below the impeller 5, and the spiral guide plate 7 is fixed to the outer wall of the motor 3 by screws 9. The spiral direction of the spiral guide plate 7 is consistent with the rotation direction of the impeller 5. The rotation direction of the spiral guide plate 7 is set in this way to ensure that it does not affect the air volume efficiency of the fan, and can also play a good role in guiding the fluid.
[0023] The spiral channel of the spiral guide plate 7 and the inner wall of the upper wind shield form a regular outlet flow channel, and the fluid flows regularly along the outlet flow channel to the air outlet. The fluid is rectified in the flow channel and flows out regularly, reducing noise caused by turbulence.
[0024] The action process of this utility model is as follows:
[0025] When in use, the motor 3 drives the output shaft 4 to rotate, thereby driving the impeller 5 to rotate, so that a pressure difference is formed between the inner cavity of the fan and the outer side of the fan, and a negative pressure is formed in the inner cavity of the fan. The fluid enters the fan through the air inlet duct formed by the air inlet of the upper wind cover 1 and the air inlet of the impeller 5. Under the action of the impeller 5, the fluid enters the interior of the impeller 5, and the fluid is compressed inside the impeller 5. Then the fluid is output from the air outlet of the impeller 5. The compressed fluid flows to the spiral guide plate 7 below, flows out along the flow direction specified by the spiral guide plate, and is finally discharged from the air outlet of the fan.
[0026] The embodiments described above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Without departing from the spirit of the present invention, various modifications and improvements to the technical solutions of the present invention made by ordinary technicians in this field should fall within the scope of protection determined by the claims of the present invention.
