And personal computers gradually changed from the previous custom-made machines of major brand manufacturers to personal computer DIY as the mainstream; and now people's economic conditions also allow them to upgrade their personal computers, and gradually appear "hardware enthusiasts" such as DIY maniacs.

[0030] And water cooling is also a frequently used accessory in computer hardware DIY, and water cooling is generally divided into integrated water cooling or split water cooling. Compared with split water cooling, integrated water cooling has lower cost and is the most common type of water cooling. Integrated water cooling generally consists of a cold row, a fan, a water pipe and a cold head, and the fan is installed on the cold row and cools the cooling liquid flowing through the cold row. For large size (240mm or 360mm) water cooling, the common practice on the market is to use two or three standard size (120mm) fans to splice, such as the utility model patent with the application number CN202121126482.7 and the patent name of a magnetic type fan group, which uses magnetic attraction to splice. Since the fans are connected by magnetic attraction, the horizontal position of the fan needs to be limited by a fixing member. However, due to the small force of magnetic attraction, this fan has the problem of poor splicing stability when in use.

[0032] To solve the above problems, the present embodiment discloses a splicing type combined fan, as shown in the structure Figures 1 to 4 The fan includes a frame body 100, a first conductive part 101 is arranged on one side of the frame body 100, and a second conductive part 107 electrically connected with the first conductive part 101 is arranged on the other side of the frame body 100.

[0033] In the embodiment, the first connecting part 102 comprises an elastic root 103 and a plurality of connecting buckles 104 protruding from the frame 100, one end of the elastic root 103 is connected with the frame 100, the other end of the elastic root 103 is connected with the connecting buckles 104, in order to improve the expandability of the fan, the elastic root 103 is designed to be detachable with the frame 100, preferably screwed; the second connecting part 106 comprises a clamping groove 105 corresponding to the connecting buckle 104, when the first connecting part 102 of one side of the fan is inserted into the other side of the frame 100 of the other fan, the connecting buckle 104 is clamped with the clamping groove 105 to realize the assembly of the two fans.

[0034] Further, one side of the frame 100 is also provided with the first connecting part 102, and the other side of the frame 100 is also provided with the second connecting part 106 corresponding to the first connecting part 102; the first connecting part 102 is used for clamping with the second connecting part 106 of the adjacent fan, and the first conductive part 101 is used for contacting with the second conductive part 107 of the adjacent fan to realize electrical connection.

[0035] From Figure 2 It can be seen that the connecting buckle 104 of the embodiment is arranged perpendicular to the elastic root 103, and the same side of the frame 100 is provided with two groups of first connecting parts 102, and the two groups of first connecting parts 102 are mirror arranged; in order to make the assembly between the adjacent fans more stable, the outer side of the frame 100 of the two connecting buckles 104, that is, the opening of the two clamping grooves 105 is towards the inner side of the frame 100; and since the material of the elastic root 103 is preferably plastic, the elastic root 103 and the connecting buckle 104 are designed in one piece, which makes the first connecting part 102 as a whole has certain elasticity and ductility, better realizing the clamping effect of the connecting buckle 104 and the clamping groove 105.

[0036] It should be noted that the first conductive part 101 and the second conductive part 107 in the embodiment mainly realize series power supply for the electrical elements of the fan, such as motor (rotor), LED light belt, etc.; and the structure of the first conductive part 101 and the second conductive part 107 and the working principle of how to realize electrical connection after contact belong to the prior art, which will not be repeated here.

[0037] In addition, the embodiment also discloses a press type combined fan and fan group, as shown in Figure 9 The fan group comprises a plurality of fans as described above, adjacent fans are clamped through the first connecting part 102 and the second connecting part 106, and are electrically connected through the contact of the first conductive part 101 and the second conductive part 107. Compared with the assembly method of the prior art, the fan group composed of the fans of the embodiment is easier to disassemble and assemble, and has higher assembly stability.

[0038] Example 2

[0039] like Figures 5 to 8 As shown, in this embodiment, the connecting buckle 104 is arranged parallel to the elastic root 103, and the connecting buckle 104 is a split upper and lower structure. That is, two slots 105 corresponding to the connecting buckle 104 are respectively arranged on the upper and lower sides of the frame 100, and the openings of the two slots 105 face each other; in addition, on both sides of the slots 105, the frame 100 is also provided with limiting plates 108, and the two limiting plates 108 form a limiting guide rail to guide the first connecting part 102, so as to facilitate the insertion between the two fans.

[0040] It should be noted that, apart from the features described above, all other features in this embodiment are the same as those in Embodiment 1, and will not be repeated here.

[0041] Example 3

[0042] In this embodiment, the positions of the first connecting part 102 and the second connecting part 106 are interchanged. That is, the second connecting part 106 includes an elastic root 103 and a plurality of connecting buckles 104 protruding from the frame 100. One end of the elastic root 103 is connected to the frame 100, and the connecting buckles 104 are connected to the other end of the elastic root 103. The first connecting part 102 includes a slot 105 corresponding to the connecting buckle 104. When the first connecting part 102 on one side of the fan is inserted into the other side of the frame 100 of another fan, the connecting buckle 104 engages with the slot 105 to realize the assembly of the two fans.

[0043] It should be noted that, apart from the features described above, all other features in this embodiment are the same as those in Embodiment 1 or Embodiment 2, and will not be repeated here.

[0044] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the essence and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model.
