[0047] Currently, fans generally use a combination of thin blades and metal or plastic mesh covers. The fan's airflow type (focused or non-focused) can be changed by the mesh cover to increase wind speed and air volume.

[0048] Due to the high cost of metal mesh covers, they have gradually been replaced by plastic mesh covers. However, plastic mesh covers have the problem of high wind resistance, which will result in a loss of airflow and a reduction in the airflow of the fan.

[0049] Based on the above considerations, this application designs a mesh cover and a fan. In the mesh cover, the first ends of all the first ribs are gathered together and connected to the air supply body, and the second ends of all the first ribs are spaced apart along the circumference of the mesh cover. That is, the first air guide channel and the second air guide channel are arranged in sequence along the radial direction of the mesh cover, and each second air guide channel is distributed along the mesh cover from the gathering point. This enhances the airflow distribution in the circumference and radial direction of the mesh cover, realizes multi-path airflow, and effectively reduces wind resistance and operating noise.

[0050] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 In one embodiment, the mesh cover includes a first air supply assembly 100, which includes at least two air supply grilles 110. Each air supply grille 110 is interconnected as a whole along the circumference of the mesh cover. Each air supply grille 110 has an air supply body 111 and at least two first ribs 112. The first ends 112a of all the first ribs 112 converge together and are connected to the air supply body 111, and the second ends 112b of all the first ribs 112 are spaced apart along the circumference of the mesh cover. The air supply body 111 has a first air guide channel 113, and a second air guide channel 114 is formed between every two adjacent first ribs 112.

[0051] It should be noted that the circumferential direction of the mesh is... Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the X direction shown; the first end 112a and the second end 112b of the first rib 112 are arranged opposite each other along the radial direction of the mesh cover, and the radial direction of the mesh cover is... Figure 5 Y direction shown.

[0052] Here, a mesh cover is used in the fan, and the mesh cover is located on the air outlet surface of the fan (that is, the front mesh cover). When the fan is running, since the second air guide channel 114 and the first air guide channel 113 are independent of each other, the airflow can be delivered through the first air guide channel 113 and the second air guide channel 114 respectively.

[0053] In the aforementioned mesh cover, the first ends 112a of all the first ribs 112 converge together and are connected to the air supply body 111, and the second ends 112b of all the first ribs 112 are spaced apart along the circumference of the mesh cover. That is, the first air guide channel 113 and the second air guide channel 114 are arranged sequentially along the radial direction of the mesh cover, and each second air guide channel 114 is distributed along the mesh cover from the convergence point. This enhances the airflow distribution in the circumference and radial direction of the mesh cover, realizes multi-path airflow, and effectively reduces wind resistance and operating noise.

[0054] In the embodiments of this application, each air supply grille 110 is an integral structure, for example, each air supply grille 110 is integrally formed by casting, injection molding or other methods, which has good integrity and high mechanical strength. The shape and size of each air supply grille 110 are exactly the same to facilitate the uniformity of air supply.

[0055] In the embodiments of this application, the air supply body 111 and each of the first ribs 112 are integral structures. The air supply body 111 and each of the first ribs 112 can be integrally formed by casting, injection molding, or other methods, resulting in good integrity and high mechanical strength. The air supply body 111 is a hollow closed ring structure, and the overall outer contour of the air supply body 111 can be pentagonal, rhomboid, or other shapes.

[0056] In the embodiments of this application, the shape and size of each first rib 112 may be exactly the same or different. Each first rib 112 may be constructed as a straight structure or a curved structure. The straight structure may be a straight strip-shaped structure extending radially along the mesh cover, such as an I-shape or a T-shape. The curved structure may be a smooth and flowing line or a structure with a slight curvature that is teardrop-shaped or similar in shape. In order to maintain the air volume and airflow of the first air supply assembly 100, the first rib 112 is preferably a straight structure.

[0057] In the embodiments of this application, the air supply area of ​​each second air guide channel 114 may be equal or unequal.

[0058] For details, please refer to Figure 5 The included angle between two adjacent first reinforcing bars 112 is δ4, where 30°≤δ4≤70°.

[0059] Understandably, the angle between two adjacent first ribs 112 affects the size of the second air guide channel 114 and the structural strength of the air supply grille 110. By limiting the range of the angle between two adjacent first ribs 112, the second air guide channel 114 can deliver air smoothly without affecting the structural strength of the air supply grille 110.

[0060] In the embodiments of this application, the included angle between any two adjacent first ribs 112 is equal, which enables all the first ribs 112 to be evenly distributed along the circumference of the mesh cover, which is beneficial to the uniformity of air supply.

[0061] Please refer to Figure 5 The first air guide channel 113 has a top wall 113a, two first side walls 113b and two second side walls 113c. The two second side walls 113c are arranged at an angle, and each second side wall 113c is connected to a first side wall 113b. The top wall 113a is connected between the two first side walls 113b. The top wall 113a, the two first side walls 113b and the two second side walls 113c form the first air guide channel 113.

[0062] It should be noted that the top wall 113a, the two first side walls 113b and the two second side walls 113c are arranged to form the first air guiding channel 113, and the top wall 113a, the two first side walls 113b and the two second side walls 113c are all the inner walls of the first air guiding channel 113.

[0063] In the embodiments of this application, the two second sidewalls 113c and the two first sidewalls 113b can be symmetrically distributed on opposite sides of the top wall 113a so that the first air guide channel 113 has a left-right symmetrical structure, which is beneficial to the uniformity of air supply.

[0064] In the embodiments of this application, the second sidewall 113c and the first sidewall 113b are also set at an angle. The angle between the second sidewall 113c and the first sidewall 113b can be 0~180°. When the angle between the second sidewall 113c and the first sidewall 113b is 0 or 180°, there is no angle between the second sidewall 113c and the first sidewall 113b, that is, the second sidewall 113c and the first sidewall 113b are parallel and connected.

[0065] In the embodiments of this application, the top wall 113a, the two first side walls 113b and the two second side walls 113c can all be planar, or all be curved, or part of them can be planar and the other part can be curved.

[0066] For details, please refer to Figure 5 The included angle between the two second sidewalls 113c is δ1, where 50°≤δ1≤100°.

[0067] Here, the included angle between the two second sidewalls 113c is an acute or obtuse angle, so that the intersection of the two second sidewalls 113c can form a pointed part, which helps to reduce wind resistance and operating noise.

[0068] For more specific details, please refer to Figure 5 The included angle between the second sidewall 113c and the first sidewall 113b is δ2, where 90°≤δ2<180°.

[0069] Here, the angle between the second sidewall 113c and the first sidewall 113b is an obtuse angle, so that the second sidewall 113c and the first sidewall 113b are not coplanar, which is conducive to multi-angle air supply.

[0070] For more specific details, please refer to Figure 5 The included angle between the top wall 113a and the first side wall 113b is δ5, where 75°≤δ5≤120°.

[0071] Here, the angle between the top wall 113a and the first side wall 113b is an obtuse angle, so that the top wall 113a and the first side wall 113b are not coplanar, which is conducive to multi-angle air supply.

[0072] In the embodiments of this application, δ1+2*δ2+2*δ5=540°, that is, the first air guide channel 113 is pentagonal. In other embodiments, δ1+2*δ2+2*δ5 can also be other values, and correspondingly, the first air guide channel 113 has other shapes.

[0073] Please refer to Figure 5 In two adjacent air supply grilles 110, the included angle between the second side wall 113c of one air supply grille 110 and the second side wall 113c of the other air supply grille 110 is δ3, where 60°≤δ3≤110°.

[0074] It is understandable that in two adjacent air supply grilles 110, an air passage 115 is formed between the second side wall 113c of one air supply grille 110 and the second side wall 113c of the other air supply grille 110.

[0075] Here, since the included angle between the second sidewall 113c of one air supply grille 110 and the second sidewall 113c of the other air supply grille 110 will affect the size of the air passage 115, by limiting the range of the included angle δ3, the air passage 115 can deliver air smoothly without affecting the structural strength of the air supply grille 110.

[0076] Further, please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 5In two adjacent air supply grilles 110, the maximum distance between the second side wall 113c of one air supply grille 110 and the second side wall 113c of the other air supply grille 110 is Φ4, where Φ4≤12mm.

[0077] Here, since the maximum distance between the second sidewall 113c of one air supply grille 110 and the second sidewall 113c of the other air supply grille 110 will affect the size of the air passage 115, by limiting the range of Φ4, the air passage 115 can deliver air smoothly without affecting the structural strength of the air supply grille 110.

[0078] Please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 5 The first air guide channel 113 has a first root 113d and a first top 113e at one end near the second air guide channel 114. The maximum spacing of the first root 113d is Φ1, where Φ1 ≤ 12 mm.

[0079] It is understandable that the first root 113d is located at the end of the first air guide channel 113 near the second air guide channel 114. The spacing of the first root 113d will affect the air supply area at the end of the first air guide channel 113 near the second air guide channel 114. By limiting the maximum spacing of the first root 113d, the air supply area can meet the usage requirements without affecting the structural strength of the air supply grille 110.

[0080] For a specific embodiment, please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 5 The first air guide channel 113 has a first top 113e at the end away from the second air guide channel 114, and the maximum spacing of the first top 113e is Φ2, where Φ1≤Φ2≤12mm.

[0081] It should be noted that the first top 113e and the first root 113d are arranged radially opposite each other along the mesh cover. The spacing of the first top 113e will affect the air delivery area of ​​the end of the first air guide channel 113 away from the second air guide channel 114. By limiting the maximum spacing of the first top 113e, the air delivery area can meet the usage requirements without affecting the structural strength of the air delivery grille 110.

[0082] Please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 5 The second air guide channel 114 has a second top 114a at one end near the first air guide channel 113, and the maximum spacing of the second top 114a is Φ3, where Φ3≤12mm.

[0083] Here, the second top 114a is located at the end of the second air guide channel 114 near the first air guide channel 113. The spacing of the second top 114a will affect the air supply area at the end of the second air guide channel 114 near the first air guide channel 113. By limiting the maximum spacing of the second top 114a, the air supply area can meet the usage requirements without affecting the structural strength of the air supply grille 110.

[0084] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The mesh cover also includes a second air supply component 200, which surrounds the outer periphery of each of the first ribs 112.

[0085] Understandably, the second air supply component 200 is arranged around the outer periphery of each of the first ribs 112, which can both expand the air supply area of ​​the mesh cover and strengthen the structural strength of the mesh cover.

[0086] In the embodiments of this application, the number of second air supply components 200 is not limited to one. When the number of second air supply components 200 is at least two, each second air supply component 200 can be sequentially fitted around the outer periphery of all the first ribs 112 along the radial direction of the mesh cover, which can further expand the air supply area.

[0087] In the embodiments of this application, the second air supply component 200 and the first air supply component 100 are integral structures with good integrity and high mechanical strength. For example, the second air supply component 200 and the first air supply component 100 can be integrally formed by casting, injection molding, or other methods.

[0088] For details, please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 The second air supply assembly 200 includes at least two second ribs 210. All the second ribs 210 are arranged around the outer periphery of each first rib 112 along the circumference of the mesh cover, and a third air guide channel 220 is formed between two adjacent second ribs 210.

[0089] In the embodiments of this application, the shape and size of each second rib 210 may be exactly the same or different. Each second rib 210 may be constructed as a straight structure or a curved structure. The straight structure may be a straight strip-shaped structure extending radially along the mesh, such as an I-shape or a T-shape. The curved structure may be a smooth and flowing line or a structure with a slight curvature in the shape of a teardrop or similar shape. The second rib 210 is preferably a curved structure.

[0090] In the embodiments of this application, the air supply area of ​​all the third air guide channels 220 may be equal or unequal, that is, the shape of all the third air guide channels 220 may be the same or different.

[0091] For a specific embodiment, please refer to Figure 9Each second rib 210 has a first connecting end 211, which is connected to the second rib 210. The angle between the first connecting end 211 and the axial direction of the mesh cover is θ, where 0°≤θ≤25°.

[0092] It should be noted that the axial direction of the mesh cover is... Figure 9 The angle between the first connecting end 211 and the axial direction of the mesh cover is designed to both avoid affecting the airflow of the fan and increase the airflow area. By limiting θ to 0°~25°, during fan operation, as the airflow is transmitted outward along the end face of the first connecting end 211, wind resistance can be reduced and the airflow area can be increased.

[0093] In the embodiments of this application, the included angles between the first connecting ends 211 of all the second ribs 210 and the axial direction of the mesh cover are all equal, so as to facilitate the uniformity of air supply.

[0094] For a specific embodiment, please refer to Figure 10 Each second rib 210 has a second connecting end 212, which is the end away from the second rib 210. The angle between the second connecting end 212 and the axial direction of the mesh cover is β, where 0°≤β≤25°.

[0095] Understandably, the angle between the second connecting end 212 and the axial direction of the mesh cover is designed to both avoid affecting the fan's airflow and increase the airflow area. By limiting β to 0°~25°, during fan operation, as the airflow travels outward along the end face of the second connecting end 212, wind resistance is reduced and the airflow area is increased.

[0096] In the embodiments of this application, the included angles between the second connecting ends 212 of all the second ribs 210 and the axial direction of the mesh cover are equal, so as to facilitate the uniformity of air supply.

[0097] Please refer to Figure 11 and Figure 1 The mesh cover also includes a third air supply component 300, which surrounds the outer periphery of the second air supply component 200.

[0098] Understandably, the third air supply component 300 is arranged around the second air supply component 200, which can both expand the air supply area of ​​the mesh cover and strengthen the structural strength of the mesh cover.

[0099] For details, please refer to Figure 11The third air supply assembly 300 includes a partition ring 310, a connecting ring 320, and at least two third ribs 330. The partition ring 310 surrounds the outer periphery of the second air supply assembly 200, the connecting ring 320 surrounds the outer periphery of the partition ring 310, and each third rib 330 is disposed between the partition ring 310 and the connecting ring 320, and a fourth air guide channel 340 is formed between two adjacent third ribs 330.

[0100] It should be noted that one end of all the third ribs 330 is connected to the partition ring 310, and the other end of all the third ribs 330 is connected to the connecting ring 320, so that each third rib 330 is located between the partition ring 310 and the connecting ring 320.

[0101] In the embodiments of this application, the shape and size of each third rib 330 may be exactly the same or different. Each third rib 330 may be constructed as a straight structure or a curved structure. The straight structure may be a straight strip-shaped structure extending radially along the mesh, such as an I-shape or a T-shape. The curved structure may be a smooth and flowing line or a structure with a slight curvature, resembling a teardrop shape or a similar shape. The third rib 330 is preferably a curved structure.

[0102] In the embodiments of this application, both the partition ring 310 and the connecting ring 320 are hollow annular structures, which can be circular, elliptical, or other ring-shaped structures. The central axes of the partition ring 310 and the connecting ring 320 overlap, that is, the connecting ring 320 and the partition ring 310 are coaxially arranged, which also means that the second air supply assembly 200 and the third air supply assembly 300 are coaxially arranged, which is beneficial to the uniformity and concentration of air supply.

[0103] In the embodiments of this application, the partition ring 310, the connecting ring 320 and each of the second ribs 210 are integral structures. The partition ring 310, the connecting ring 320 and each of the second ribs 210 can be integrally formed by casting, injection molding and other methods, which has good integrity and high mechanical strength.

[0104] In the embodiments of this application, the air supply area of ​​all the fourth air guide channels 340 may be equal or unequal, that is, the shape of all the fourth air guide channels 340 may be the same or different.

[0105] For a specific embodiment, please refer to Figure 11 Each third rib 330 has a third connecting end 331, which is connected to the partition ring 310. The angle between the third connecting end 331 and the axial direction of the mesh cover is α1, where 0°≤α1≤25°.

[0106] It should be noted that the angle between the third connecting end 331 and the axial direction of the mesh cover is designed to both avoid affecting the airflow of the fan and increase the airflow area. By limiting α1 to 0°~25°, during fan operation, as the airflow is transmitted outward along the end face of the third connecting end 331, wind resistance can be reduced and the airflow area can be increased.

[0107] In the embodiments of this application, the included angles between the third connecting end 331 of all the third ribs 330 and the axial direction of the mesh cover are all equal, so as to facilitate the uniformity of air supply.

[0108] For a specific embodiment, please refer to Figure 12 Each third rib 330 also has a fourth connecting end 332, which is connected to the connecting ring 320. The angle between the fourth connecting end 332 and the axial direction of the mesh cover is α2, where 10°≤α2≤40°.

[0109] Understandably, the angle between the fourth connecting end 332 and the axial direction of the mesh cover is designed to both avoid affecting the fan's airflow and increase the airflow area. By limiting α2 to 10°~40°, during fan operation, as the airflow travels outward along the end face of the fourth connecting end 332, wind resistance is reduced and the airflow area is increased.

[0110] In the embodiments of this application, the included angles between the fourth connecting end 332 of all the third ribs 330 and the axial direction of the mesh cover are all equal, so as to facilitate the uniformity of air supply.

[0111] Please refer to Figure 1 In one embodiment, the fan includes the aforementioned mesh cover.

[0112] It should be noted that the aforementioned fan also includes components such as fan blades, and the mesh cover is placed on the outside of the fan blades to provide protection and airflow.

[0113] In the aforementioned fan, the first ends 112a of all the first ribs 112 converge together and are connected to the air supply body 111, and the second ends 112b of all the first ribs 112 are spaced apart along the circumference of the mesh cover. That is, the first air guide channel 113 and the second air guide channel 114 are arranged sequentially along the radial direction of the mesh cover, and each second air guide channel 114 is distributed along the mesh cover from the convergence point, which enhances the airflow distribution in the circumference and radial direction of the mesh cover, realizes multi-path airflow, and effectively reduces wind resistance and operating noise.

[0114] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0115] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementation methods of this application, and 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 those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this patent application should be determined by the appended claims.
