[0043] Embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings are intended to explain the present application and should not be understood as limiting the present application.

[0044] The present application is made based on the inventor's discovery and understanding of the following facts and problems:

[0045] In the related art, the distance between the motor shaft and the inner barrel of the fan is relatively close. When washing or rinsing in the drying tunnel system, there is a risk that the liquid will be distributed between the motor shaft and the inner barrel, which will cause the equivalent insulation distance between the motor shaft and the inner barrel to be shortened, thereby increasing the risk of electric leakage during equipment operation.

[0046] The fan assembly 100 of the embodiment of the present application comprises a fan 2 and a spacer 3. The fan 2 comprises a motor shaft 21, and the motor shaft 21 comprises an outer extension part 211 which is at least partially exposed.

[0047] For example, as shown in Figure 1 The fan 2 can be assembled in the drying tunnel 1, and the drying tunnel 1 can be generally in the form of a flat tube structure, and the inlet and outlet of the drying tunnel 1 can be in communication with the barrel 200.

[0048] The fan 2 comprises an impeller 22 and a motor, and the motor comprises a motor shaft 21. The impeller 22 can be fixedly connected with the motor shaft 21. In use, the rotation of the motor shaft 21 can drive the impeller 22 to rotate, and the rotating impeller 22 can realize the circulation flow driving of the airflow, thereby meeting the use requirement of circulating supply of hot air in the barrel 200.

[0049] It should be noted that, as shown in Figure 1 The front end of the motor shaft 21 can pass through the impeller 22 and be exposed from the front side of the impeller 22. The exposed part of the motor shaft 21 is the above-mentioned outer extension part 211, and the outer extension part 211 is arranged towards the above-mentioned barrel 200. A nut or other structural part can be assembled on the outer extension part 211, thereby meeting the function of stopping and limiting the front side of the impeller 22, and the setting of the outer extension part 211 meets the use requirement of stopping and limiting assembly.

[0050] The spacer 3 is insulated, and the spacer 3 is arranged on the outer periphery side of the outer extension part 211 to realize the insulation and isolation between the motor shaft 21 and the barrel 200. For example, the material of the spacer 3 can be an insulating material such as plastic, as shown in Figure 2As shown, the isolating piece 3 can be generally in a cap structure, and the isolating piece 3 can be connected with the motor shaft 21 and the like through clamping, threaded fitting and the like, and the isolating piece 3 can cover the above-mentioned extension part 211 inside, thereby avoiding the case that the extension part 211 is directly exposed.

[0051] The fan assembly 100 in the embodiment of the utility model can realize insulation and isolation of the end part of the motor shaft 21, avoids the case that the equivalent insulation distance is shortened due to the close distance between the motor shaft 21 and the cylinder 200 and the like in the related art, and further can avoid the problem of electric leakage, thereby improving the safety of overall use.

[0052] In some embodiments, the isolating piece 3 is threaded assembled with the fan 2, for example, one of the fan 2 and the isolating piece 3 can be provided with an internal thread, and the other can be provided with an external thread, and when assembled, the threaded assembly of the isolating piece 3 and the fan 2 can be realized through the cooperation of the internal thread and the external thread, thereby improving the convenience of assembly of the isolating piece 3 and the fan 2, and also ensuring the sealing between the two.

[0053] In some embodiments, the threaded assembly direction of the isolating piece 3 and the fan 2 is opposite to the rotation direction of the fan 2. For example, in the actual use process, the rotation direction of the fan 2 can be clockwise rotation, and the rotation direction of the above-mentioned external thread 311 and internal thread 223 can be counterclockwise rotation.

[0054] Therefore, in the process of rotation of the fan 2, under the cooperation of the threads, the isolating piece 3 will tend to be tightened relative to the fan 2, avoiding the problem of loosening, and also realizing the effect of automatic tightening of the isolating piece 3.

[0055] In some embodiments, the fan 2 includes an impeller 22, and the isolating piece 3 is rotationally assembled with at least one of the motor shaft 21 and the impeller 22 of the fan 2. For example, as shown in Figure 2 The isolating piece 3 can be only threaded assembled with the impeller 22, or only threaded assembled with the motor shaft 21, and in other embodiments, the isolating piece 3 can be simultaneously threaded assembled with both the motor shaft 21 and the impeller 22. Therefore, the assembly mode of the isolating piece 3 is flexible and variable, and fully meets the assembly needs of various working conditions. In some embodiments, the fan 2 includes an impeller 22, the motor shaft 21 passes through the hub of the impeller 22, the extension part 211 is exposed from the side of the impeller 22 facing the cylinder 200, and the isolating piece 3 is connected with at least one of the motor shaft 21 and the impeller 22.

[0056] For example, as shown in Figure 2As shown, the impeller 22 can include a hub and a plurality of blades, the hub can be provided at the hub center of the impeller 22 and can extend generally along the front-rear direction, and the plurality of blades can be provided at the outer circumferential side of the hub and arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the hub. The hub is provided with a central hole, the motor shaft 21 can be fitted in the central hole of the hub, and the front end of the motor shaft 21 extends out of the front side of the hub and forms an extension part 211.

[0057] The isolating piece 3 can be detachably connected with the motor shaft 21, and in other embodiments, the isolating piece 3 can also be detachably connected with the impeller 22. In other embodiments, the isolating piece 3 can also be detachably connected with the motor shaft 21 and the impeller 22 at the same time. Thus, the assembly mode of the isolating piece 3 is diversified, and the mounting structure of the isolating piece 3 can be selectively adjusted according to actual needs.

[0058] In some embodiments, the impeller 22 is provided with a connecting part 221 on the side facing the cylinder 200, and the isolating piece 3 is connected with the impeller 22 through the connecting part 221. For example, as shown in Figure 3 The material of the impeller 22 can be plastic or the like, the connecting part 221 can be integrally formed on the front side of the impeller 22 by injection molding, the connecting part 221 can be a clamping structure or the like, and during assembly, the isolating piece 3 can be directly clamped and fixed with the connecting part 221 by clamping, thereby facilitating the detachable assembly of the isolating piece 3 and the impeller 22.

[0059] In some embodiments, the connecting part 221 is provided at the outer circumferential side of the extension part 211, the connecting part 221 extends along the circumferential direction of the extension part 211 to close and enclose a groove 222, and at least part of the isolating piece 3 is fitted in the groove 222.

[0060] For example, as shown in Figure 3 The connecting part 221 can be generally in the form of a circular ring, the connecting part 221 can be annularly arranged at the outer circumferential side of the extension part 211, and the inner circumferential wall of the connecting part 221 can be arranged at intervals with the extension part 211. The inner space of the connecting part 221 forms the groove 222, and part or all of the isolating piece 3 can be fitted in the groove 222.

[0061] In this way, on the one hand, the connecting part 221 facilitates the mounting and arrangement of the isolating piece 3, and on the other hand, the annular connecting part 221 can also shield the extension part 211, thereby enhancing the isolation and protection of the extension part 211.

[0062] In some embodiments, the isolating piece 3 is screw-fitted in the groove 222 of the connecting part 221. For example, as shown in Figure 3As shown, the inner circumferential wall of the connecting portion 221 can be provided with an internal thread 223, and the outer circumferential wall of the isolation piece 3 can be provided with an external thread 311. During assembly, the external thread 311 of the isolation piece 3 is directly assembled with the internal thread 223 of the connecting portion 221, thereby ensuring the structural stability of the assembly and the waterproof sealing between the isolation piece 3 and the connecting portion 221, and fully ensuring the insulation protection effect.

[0063] In some embodiments, the isolation piece 3 includes a first section 31, the outer circumferential side of the first section 31 is provided with an external thread 311 and an inner hole 312, the first section 31 is threadedly fitted into the groove 222, and the inner hole 312 is used for inserting the extension portion 211.

[0064] For example, as shown in the drawings, Figure 4 The first section 31 can be generally a circular column, the external thread 311 can be provided on the outer circumferential wall of the first section 31, and the inner space of the first section 31 forms the inner hole 312. During assembly, the first section 31 can be directly threadedly fitted into the groove 222, and the extension portion 211 can be inserted into the inner hole 312 of the first section 31.

[0065] In this way, on the one hand, the installation interference between the isolation piece 3 and the extension portion 211 is avoided, and the installation convenience is improved, and on the other hand, the first section 31 can also cover the outer circumferential side of the extension portion 211, thereby further enhancing the overall insulation protection effect.

[0066] In some embodiments, the isolation piece further includes a second section 32, the second section 32 is connected with the first section 31, at least part of the radial dimension of the second section 32 is greater than the radial dimension of the first section 31, and the second section 32 is used for abutting against the end face of the connecting portion 221 to limit the threaded assembly depth of the isolation piece 3.

[0067] For example, as shown in the drawings, Figure 4 The second section 32 can be generally a flat hexagonal prism, the material of the isolation piece 3 can be plastic, and the second section 32 can be integrally formed with the first section 31 by one-piece injection molding. The second section 32 is a solid structure, and the radial dimension of the second section 32 can be slightly greater than the radial dimension of the first section 31.

[0068] During assembly, the first section 31 can be completely threadedly rotated into the groove 222, and the rear end face of the second section 32 facing the first section 31 can be abutted against the front end face of the connecting portion 221, thereby on the one hand, limiting the rotation depth of the first section 31, and on the other hand, further enhancing the insulation isolation effect through the abutment of the two end faces.

[0069] In addition, the second section 32 can also seal the front end port of the first section 31, thereby ensuring the sealing and avoiding the exposure of the extension part 211.

[0070] In some embodiments, the fan 2 comprises a fastener 23 arranged on the outer circumferential side of the extension part 211 and abutting against the impeller 22, and the connecting part 221 is arranged on the outer circumferential side of the fastener 23, and at least part of the fastener 23 is fitted into the inner hole 312.

[0071] For example, as shown in Figure 3 the fastener 23 can be a nut, which is screwed on the outer circumferential side of the extension part 211. The motor shaft 21 can be provided with a shoulder, which is located at the rear side of the impeller 22. After the impeller 22 is sleeved on the outer circumferential side of the motor shaft 21, the fastener 23 can be screwed onto the motor shaft 21. Thus, the hub of the impeller 22 is clamped and fixed between the shoulder and the fastener 23, thereby achieving the installation and fixation of the impeller 22 and the motor shaft 21 and ensuring the structural stability of the assembly of the impeller 22 and the motor shaft 21.

[0072] It should be noted that when the above-mentioned isolation piece 3 is assembled to the impeller 22, the fastener 23 can also be covered on the outer circumferential side of the first section 31. Since the fastener 23 is usually made of metal and has non-insulating property, the insulation and protection of the fastener 23 can also be achieved.

[0073] In some embodiments, the impeller 22 is provided with a plurality of connecting parts 221, which are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the motor shaft 21, and each connecting part 221 is connected with the isolation piece 3.

[0074] For example, as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 the impeller 22 can be integrally formed with six connecting parts 221. The impeller 22 is provided with a through hole through which the motor shaft 21 passes. The six connecting parts 221 can be arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction on the outer circumferential side of the through hole. Each connecting part 221 can be generally cylindrical. During assembly, the six connecting parts 221 can be connected and fixed with the isolation piece 3, thereby ensuring the stability of the fixation of the isolation piece 3.

[0075] In some embodiments, the connecting part 221 passes through the isolation piece 3 and is fixed with the isolation piece 3 by heat melting. For example, the material of the connecting part 221 can be plastic or the like. The isolation piece 3 can be provided with a through hole. Each connecting part 221 can pass through the corresponding through hole, and then the part of the connecting part 221 that passes through can be melted and connected with the isolation piece 3 by heat melting, thereby improving the convenience of assembly.

[0076] In some embodiments, the connecting portion 221 is integrally formed on the impeller 22. For example, the impeller 22 and the connecting portion 221 can be made of plastic, and the connecting portion 221 can be integrally formed on the impeller 22 by injection molding, thereby improving the processing convenience.

[0077] In some embodiments, the fan 2 includes a sealing ring 24, the outer side of the impeller 22 is provided with a protruding portion 224, the motor shaft passes through the protruding portion 224, the sealing ring 24 is sleeved on the outer circumferential side of the sealing ring 24, and the sealing ring 24 is clamped and fixed between the impeller 22 and the isolation piece 3.

[0078] For example, as shown in FIG. 2, the front side of the impeller 22 can be integrally formed with the protruding portion 224. The protruding portion 224 can be annular and can be provided on the outer circumferential side of the through hole through which the motor shaft 21 passes. The sealing ring 24 can be a rubber ring. When the isolation piece 3 is fixed on the impeller 22, the sealing ring 24 can be clamped and fixed between the impeller 22 and the isolation piece 3, thereby fully ensuring the circumferential sealing of the through hole through which the motor shaft 21 passes. Figure 6 In some embodiments, the isolation piece 3 is provided with a protruding portion 33 which protrudes outwardly of the impeller 22 and forms a avoiding groove on the inner side of the isolation piece 3, and the avoiding groove is used for inserting the extension portion 211.

[0079] For example, as shown in FIG. 2, the isolation piece 3 can be in a grass hat structure as a whole, the protruding portion 33 can be in a circular table shape and can be integrally formed on the isolation piece 3. The protruding portion 33 is provided at the center position of the isolation piece 3 and protrudes outwardly of the front side of the isolation piece 3. The part corresponding to the protruding portion 33 on the front side of the isolation piece 3 forms an avoiding groove, thereby achieving the effect of shielding and protecting the extension portion.

[0080] Figure 6 In some embodiments, the material of the impeller 22 is an insulating material, for example, the material of the impeller 22 is plastic, etc. Since the impeller 22 is directly connected with the motor shaft 21, the situation of electric leakage through the impeller 22 is avoided.

[0081] In some embodiments, the motor shaft 21 is a steel shaft. Therefore, the structural strength required for the rotation of the impeller 22 is fully met.
