[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this utility model provides a centrifugal fan with quick-change blades, including a support 1. The top of the support 1 is fixedly connected to a housing 2 and a power motor 3. The power motor 3 is used to drive the centrifugal fan. The housing 2 is provided with a blade assembly 4. The blade assembly 4 includes a rear splicing plate 42. One end of the rear splicing plate 42 is provided with multiple fan blades 45. One end of each fan blade 45 is fixedly connected to a dovetail block 451. The other end of the multiple fan blades 45 is provided with a front splicing plate 44. One end of the front splicing plate 44 is provided with a dovetail groove 43 that is used with the multiple dovetail blocks 451. The other end of each fan blade 45 is fixedly connected to a round rod 453. One end of the front splicing plate 44 is provided with a round groove that is used with the multiple round rods 453.

[0024] Specifically, rubber pads are fixed at both ends of multiple fan blades 45. The rubber pads can effectively buffer the vibration generated at the connection between the fan blades 45 and the front and rear splicing plates 42 when the fan blades 45 rotate at high speed.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, each of the multiple dovetail blocks 451 has an elastic protrusion 452 at one end, and each of the multiple dovetail grooves 43 has a groove that is used to cooperate with the elastic protrusion 452. The cooperation between the elastic protrusion 452 and the groove enhances the connection tightness between the dovetail block 451 and the dovetail groove 43. During the operation of the fan, it effectively prevents the fan blade 45 from falling off the rear splicing plate 42 due to centrifugal force or vibration, and ensures the structural integrity of the fan blade assembly 4.

[0026] Furthermore, the outer surface of the chassis 2 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 5 by bolts. One end of the mounting plate 5 is provided with a guide groove 411, and the other end of the rear splicing plate 42 is equipped with a guide strip 41 that works in conjunction with the guide groove 411. This provides precise guidance during the installation of the fan blade assembly 4, making it easy for the rear splicing plate 42 to be quickly and accurately inserted into the predetermined position inside the chassis 2, thereby improving installation efficiency, reducing installation errors, and effectively fixing the fan blade assembly 4 during operation without affecting its rotation.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the output end of the power motor 3 is fixedly connected to a drive shaft 56. One end of the drive shaft 56 passes through the housing 2 and the rear splicing plate 42 and extends to one side of the rear splicing plate 42. One end of the rear splicing plate 42 is fixedly connected to a fixed plate base 58. Both the fixed plate base 58 and the drive shaft 56 are provided with slots 52. The inner surfaces of the two slots 52 are movably inserted with a locking rod 53. The outer surface of the locking rod 53 is wrapped with a return spring 54. This connection method is simple and firm, and is easy to install and disassemble. It can be easily separated by simply operating the locking rod 53, reducing maintenance difficulty and time cost, and improving the maintainability and utilization rate of the equipment.

[0028] It is worth noting that two positioning strips 57 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the drive shaft 56, and the inner surface of the front splicing plate 44 is provided with positioning grooves 55 that cooperate with the two positioning strips 57, which ensures the concentricity of the fan blade assembly 4 with the drive shaft 56 during rotation, making the device run more smoothly.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, one end of the return spring 54 is fixedly connected to the limiting plate 51, the limiting plate 51 is fixedly sleeved with the snap-fit ​​rod 53, and one end of the limiting plate 51 is in contact with the drive shaft 56. The other end of the return spring 54 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of one side of the slot 52. During the operation of the fan, the return spring 54 continuously provides elastic force to prevent the snap-fit ​​rod 53 from loosening and falling off due to vibration or other external forces, further enhancing the stability and reliability of the connection between the drive shaft 56 and the rear splicing plate 42.

[0030] The power motor 3 is existing technology and will not be described in detail. Additionally, this utility model also includes a power supply, controller, and switch, which are not the main technical points of this patent and will not be described in detail. The wiring diagram of the motor in this utility model is common knowledge in the field, and its working principle is already known technology. The appropriate model is selected based on actual use; therefore, the control method and wiring layout of the motor will not be explained in detail.

[0031] Working principle and process: When it is necessary to disassemble the centrifugal fan blades, first loosen the bolts to remove the mounting plate 5, then overcome the elastic force of the return spring 54 to pull out the locking rod 53, so that the locking rod 53 disengages from the slot 52 on the drive shaft 56. Then the fan blade assembly 4 can be removed. When one of the fan blades is damaged, remove the front splicing plate 44 on the fan blade assembly 4, overcome the elastic force of the elastic protrusion 452, and remove the fan blade 45 that needs to be replaced through the dovetail groove 43. Then reinstall the front splicing plate 44. Then install the fan blade assembly 4 onto the drive shaft 56 through the positioning strip 57 and the positioning groove 55. Pull out the locking rod 53. Then, under the action of the return spring 54, the locking rod 53 can pass through the two round grooves to make the fan blade assembly 4 and the drive shaft 56 securely connected. Then reinstall the mounting plate 5.

[0032] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.
