TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to fan technical field, concretely relates to a heat dissipation fan with side suction type runner. BACKGROUND
[0002] Axial flow heat dissipation fan is a kind of common heat dissipation equipment, it is driven by motor, makes blade high-speed rotation, to push air flow along the axis direction, reaches the effect of ventilation and heat dissipation.
[0003] The existing axial flow heat dissipation fan often has deficiency in performance, it is difficult to meet the increasing heat dissipation demand. In order to improve fan performance, the industry generally adopts the design such as replacing higher efficiency motor, but these methods face some problems in practical application, for example, replacing higher efficiency motor, as follows:
[0004] 1, the manufacturing cost of high-efficiency motor is usually higher, which leads to the rise of overall cost after replacing motor.
[0005] 2, although high-efficiency motor has superior performance, but its maintenance requirement also correspondingly increases, and it needs more professional technical personnel to maintain and maintain.
[0006] Therefore, how to solve the deficiency of the above-mentioned prior art after adopting corresponding measures to improve fan performance becomes the subject to be researched and solved by the utility model. CONTENT OF UTILITY MODEL
[0007] The utility model aims at providing a heat dissipation fan with side suction type runner.
[0008] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model adopts the technical scheme that:
[0009] A heat dissipation fan with side suction type runner, comprising:
[0010] Base, as the component of providing support and being provided with accommodating cavity;
[0011] Rotor, rotationally arranged in the accommodating cavity and having shaft center;
[0012] Stator, fixedly arranged in the accommodating cavity and coaxially arranged with the rotor;The stator has the shaft pipe portion corresponding to the shaft center, the first bearing is arranged in the shaft pipe portion, and the first bearing is sleeved on the shaft center;
[0013] Wherein, at least one side suction type runner is arranged on the base, the side suction type runner forms air inlet on the surface of the base towards the air inlet side and forms air outlet on the cavity wall of the accommodating cavity;The extension direction of the axis of the air inlet and the extension direction of the axis of the air outlet have an included angle.
[0014] In the above scheme, when the fan is powered on, the electromagnetic field generated by the stator magnetic pole interacts with the permanent magnet ring in the rotor to push the rotor to rotate. In this process, the shaft tube supports the shaft center of the rotor, and the bearing rolls in the shaft tube to reduce friction and wear.
[0015] When the fan rotates, a pressure difference is generated, which causes external air to enter the containing cavity, and then generates airflow. By arranging the side suction type flow channel, the area and distribution range of the upper inlet of the fan are expanded, which has the following effects: on the one hand, the air intake per unit time is increased, thereby improving the fan air volume, and the performance and efficiency of the fan are improved; on the other hand, more air flow helps to effectively carry away heat and improve the heat dissipation effect; on the other hand, compared with other methods for improving the performance of the fan, such as replacing a more efficient motor, the arrangement in the application has lower cost and is easier to operate, and does not require more professional technicians for maintenance and maintenance.
[0016] It should be noted that the arrangement of the side suction type flow channel expands the area and distribution range of the upper inlet of the fan without adjusting the shape and size of the base.
[0017] The side suction type flow channel forms an inlet on the surface of the base facing the air inlet side and forms an outlet on the wall of the containing cavity. The extension direction of the axis of the inlet has an included angle with the extension direction of the axis of the outlet. In this way, the inlet of the side suction type flow channel can be directly aligned with the air inlet side to improve the air inlet effect. At the same time, the outlet of the side suction type flow channel can be directly aligned with the side of the fan rotor (such as the middle part of the side), so that the airflow sucked in through the inlet of the side suction type flow channel is sent into the containing cavity along the radial direction of the rotor, achieving the effect of wind pressure superposition on the basis of the original outlet air volume of the fan rotor.
[0018] In a further technical solution, the side suction type flow channels are arranged at the corner regions on the base.
[0019] An appropriate increase in the number of side suction type flow channels helps to improve the air intake, so that the above-mentioned effects of improving the performance of the fan are further improved.
[0020] To disperse the side suction type flow channels and avoid mutual interference, the side suction type flow channels are arranged at the corner regions on the base.
[0021] In a further technical solution, the corner regions on the base and the side suction type flow channels are both arranged as four.
[0022] Optionally, the base is a square base or approximately square, at this time, the corner regions have four, and correspondingly, the side suction type flow channels are arranged as four. When it is still necessary to be arranged at the above-mentioned middle part, the side suction type flow channels are arranged as eight.
[0023] Further technical solutions also include an elastic member, one end of the elastic member acting on the first bearing, and the other end of the elastic member acting on the shaft tube.
[0024] The elastic member can provide appropriate pre-tightening force for the bearing, which helps to ensure that the bearing maintains a stable running state in the shaft tube, reducing vibration and noise caused by looseness or excessive gap.
[0025] The elastic member can also absorb and buffer the vibration and impact during the operation of the fan. When the fan rotates at high speed, it will generate a certain vibration and impact force. The presence of the elastic member can effectively absorb these vibrations and impacts, protecting other components of the fan from damage, thereby improving the stability and durability of the fan.
[0026] Further technical solutions also include a gasket arranged between the first bearing and the elastic member, and the elastic member acts on the first bearing through the gasket.
[0027] The gasket is arranged between the first bearing and the elastic member, which can provide additional support for the bearing and enhance the stability of the fan structure.
[0028] By reasonably designing the thickness and material of the gasket, the pre-tightening force of the bearing can be adjusted to ensure the smoothness of the fan during operation.
[0029] The gasket has a certain elasticity and can absorb the impact and vibration between the first bearing and the elastic member, reducing noise and wear.
[0030] During the operation of the fan, the gasket can reduce the radial and axial runout of the bearing, improving the running accuracy of the fan.
[0031] Further technical solutions, along the length extension direction of the shaft tube, the side surface of the elastic member away from the gasket is attached to the shaft tube.
[0032] The elastic member is installed in the shaft tube. Here, the whole elastic member is described. The symmetric ends of the elastic member contact the gasket and the shaft tube respectively, so that the elastic member is fixed in the shaft tube.
[0033] Further technical solutions also include a second bearing sleeved on the shaft.
[0034] Through the arrangement of the second bearing, on the one hand, the load of the first bearing can be shared; on the other hand, in the case of high-speed operation, a single bearing may gradually fail due to friction and wear. The arrangement of two bearings can reduce the friction and wear of each bearing, prolonging the service life; on the other hand, the arrangement of the second bearing can improve the running stability of the shaft, reducing vibration and noise.
[0035] Further technical solutions also include a clasp ring sleeved on the shaft core, and a groove is arranged on the shaft core corresponding to the clasp ring.
[0036] Along the length direction of the shaft pipe part, the two side surfaces of the second bearing respectively abut against the clasp ring and the shaft pipe part.
[0037] The clasp ring cooperates with the shaft pipe part to fix the second bearing, preventing it from moving or falling off in the axial direction of the shaft core, and ensuring the normal operation and stability of the second bearing.
[0038] During the operation of the second bearing, the clasp ring can also withstand a certain axial force, providing additional support and protection for the second bearing, which helps to prolong the service life of the second bearing and improve the overall performance of the equipment.
[0039] The design of the clasp ring also makes the installation and disassembly of the second bearing more convenient. By simply operating the clasp ring, the second bearing can be quickly installed and disassembled, improving work efficiency.
[0040] Further technical solutions, the air inlet and the air outlet are both circular.
[0041] The air inlet and the air outlet are both circular, which can reduce the processing difficulty and also ensure the air intake.
[0042] Taking the air inlet as an example, the circular air inlet can ensure a relatively uniform flow field distribution when the air enters, reducing the turbulence of the airflow, which helps to ensure that the air enters the fan at a stable speed and pressure, thereby improving the efficiency and performance of the fan.
[0043] The design of the circular air inlet also helps to reduce airflow noise. Since the circular air inlet can provide more uniform airflow, it can reduce the noise caused by unstable airflow.
[0044] Further technical solutions, the side suction type flow channel is smoothly curved, or the side suction type flow channel includes a plurality of sequentially connected bending segments.
[0045] The side suction type flow channel can be a curved flow channel or a bending flow channel, and the effects are different. For example, the curved flow channel design can reduce flow loss during gas incidence and discharge, while the bending flow channel design can limit the speed of the fluid.

[0065] It should be noted that the stator 3, the rotor 2 and the bearing are provided as existing, and the specific detailed principle can refer to the existing description, which is not expanded here.
[0066] The fan blade generates a pressure difference when rotating, and the existence of the pressure difference causes external air to enter the containing cavity 11, and then generates airflow; through the setting of the side suction type flow channel 5, the area and distribution range of the upper fan air inlet 51 are equivalent to being enlarged, and the effects are as follows: on the one hand, the air intake amount per unit time is increased, and the fan air volume is improved, realizing the improvement of fan performance and efficiency; on the other hand, more air flow helps to more effectively take away heat, improving the heat dissipation effect; on the other hand, compared with other methods for improving fan performance, such as replacing a more efficient motor, the setting in the application has lower cost and simpler operation, and does not need more professional technicians to maintain and maintain.

[0076] Optionally, the spring 7 adopts a spring structure, such as a compression spring.
[0077] The spring 7 can provide appropriate pre-tightening force for the bearing, which helps to ensure that the bearing maintains a stable running state in the shaft tube part 31, reduces vibration and noise caused by looseness or excessive gap.
[0078] The spring 7 can also absorb and buffer the vibration and impact during the operation of the fan. When the fan rotates at high speed, it will produce a certain vibration and impact force.
