TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to vehicle heat dissipation fan technical field, concretely relates to a wind -guard ring and fan assembly structure. BACKGROUND
[0002] As Figure 1 shown, in the traditional automobile cooling system, the wind passes through the radiator and the wind collecting cover 4 in turn, and then is collected together, and then is cooled by the fan 3 for the cabin. The wind collecting cover 4 is fixed on the vehicle body at the same time with the radiator, and the fan 3 is connected with the engine; when running, the wind collecting cover 4, the fan 3 and the like have certain amplitude, and in order to prevent the collision between the fan 3 and the wind collecting cover 4 during driving, the gap required for the relative movement of the wind collecting cover 4 and the fan 3 needs to be left. In practice, the gap for safe movement between the wind collecting cover 4 and the fan 3 needs to be ensured, and the gap cannot be too large. As Figure 1 shown, the gap D between the traditional wind collecting cover 4 and the fan 3 after cooperation is generally kept at 25-30mm, the gap is relatively large, which will lead to the difficulty in aligning the center of the wind collecting cover 4 with the center of the fan 3, thereby leading to the difficulty in keeping the concentric installation of the wind collecting cover 4 and the fan 3, so as to reduce the heat dissipation effect, and bring problems such as large noise and the like.
[0003] Based on this, the prior art, such as the one shown in the publication numbers CN214742369U and CN113217473B, provides a center positioning tool for assembling the wind guard ring and the heat dissipation fan with guide vanes, which comprises a base, at least one clamping groove and at least one elastic arm are arranged on the base, the clamping groove is used for clamping with the inner ring edge of the wind guard ring, and the movable end of the elastic arm is used for abutting against the inner wall of the outer ring in the heat dissipation fan; the opening end of the clamping groove and the movable end of the elastic arm are located on the same side of the base. The center positioning tool can realize the precise alignment of the center of the wind guard ring and the center of the heat dissipation fan (that is, realize the concentric alignment and assembly of the wind guard ring and the heat dissipation fan), so as to avoid the uneven gap between the outer peripheral edges of the two components, thereby avoiding the scratching and abnormal sound between the two components, and improving the service life of the two components.
[0004] However, the existing center positioning tool needs to set a cuboid-shaped base and additionally add auxiliary supporting blocks and the like, so that the center positioning tool has defects of complex structure, high raw material cost and high production cost; moreover, the clamping grooves, elastic arms and auxiliary supporting blocks are arranged along the length direction of the cuboid-shaped base at intervals, and the number of the clamping grooves and the elastic arms is two, which all lead to the base needing to have a long enough length, so that the structure of the center positioning tool is more complex, and the raw material cost and the production cost are further increased, and the structure design is very unreasonable; in addition, the randomness of the installation angle and the installation position of the adjacent two center positioning tools when being installed on the inner ring edge of the wind guard ring is large, and the assembly is based on the experience of workers, so that the problem of the wind guard ring and the fan being different in center is easily caused.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0028] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present application more apparent, comprehensible and easily understood, the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments.
[0029] EMBODIMENT
[0030] The assembly structure of the wind guard and the fan of the present embodiment, referring to Figure 2 , comprises a wind guard 2, a fan 3 and a plurality of positioning buckles 1. The outer side of the wind guard 2 is provided with a first outer ring 21, the outer side of the fan 3 is provided with a second outer ring 31, and the second outer ring 31 is located inside the first outer ring 21.
[0031] In the actual assembly process, the positioning buckles 1 are needed to position and align the center of the first outer ring 21 with the center of the second outer ring 31, so that the wind guard 2 and the fan 3 are kept concentric, and then the wind guard 2 and the fan 3 are installed on the engine to realize the heat dissipation effect.
[0032] Referring to Figures 2-3 , the positioning buckle 1 is provided with a clamping groove 11 and an abutting portion 13 connected in sequence (as shown in Figure 3 ).
[0033] Among them, the first outer ring 21 is uniformly provided with a plurality of buckle insertion portions 22 (as shown in Figure 2 , 5The card slot 11 is located on the side of the first outer ring 21, and the notch of the card slot 11 faces the first outer ring 21 at the buckle insertion part 22, so that the first outer ring 21 at the buckle insertion part 22 is inserted into the notch of the card slot 11 to be inserted and matched with the card slot 11. In this way, the positioning buckle 1 can be fixed on the outer side of the wind guard ring 2 through the insertion and matching of the card slot 11 and the first outer ring 21 at the buckle insertion part 22.
[0034] Specifically, referring to Figures 2-6 , the first outer ring 21 includes a cylindrical portion 211 (as shown in Figure 5 , 6 ) and an annular flared portion 212 (as shown in Figure 5 , 6 ) provided at one end of the cylindrical portion 211. A plurality of openings are uniformly provided on the annular flared portion 212 in the circumferential direction, and the openings are the buckle insertion parts 22, so that the card slot 11 can be inserted and matched with the cylindrical portion 211 at the openings. In this way, the openings can better position and limit the insertion and matching of the card slot 11 and the first outer ring 21, thereby effectively avoiding the problem that the wind guard ring 2 is easily out of concentricity with the fan 3 due to the randomness of the installation angle and position of the existing center positioning tool on the inner edge of the wind guard ring 2, and thus helping to improve the positioning and concentricity accuracy of the positioning buckle 1.
[0035] The number of buckle insertion parts 22 is preferably three, and the number of buckle insertion parts 22 is the same as the number of positioning buckles 1. Therefore, by limiting the number of buckle insertion parts 22 and positioning buckles 1, and the specific positions of the three buckle insertion parts 22 (i.e. openings), the insertion and matching of the card slot 11 and the first outer ring 21 can be more stable and reliable, thereby helping to improve the positioning and concentricity accuracy of the positioning buckle 1, making the concentricity controllable, guaranteed and with minimal error.
[0036] Specifically, the card slot 11 includes a first slot wall 112 and a second slot wall 113 (as shown in Figure 3 , 5 ). One end of the first slot wall 112 is connected to one end of the second slot wall 113 to form a closed end, and the other end of the first slot wall 112 is separated from the other end of the second slot wall 113 to form a notch of the card slot 11.
[0037] In use, after the notch of the card slot 11 is inserted into the first outer ring 21 from the buckle insertion part 22, the first slot wall 112 of the card slot 11 contacts the outer side of the first outer ring 21, and the second slot wall 113 of the card slot 11 contacts the inner side of the first outer ring 21; in this way, the insertion and matching of the card slot 11 and the first outer ring 21 is achieved.
[0038] Further, the side surface of the first outer ring 21 is provided with a limiting block 23 (as shown in Figure 5As shown), the groove wall of the slot 11 is provided with a stepped portion 111 that abuts against the limiting block 23 (as shown). Figure 3 , 5 (as shown); and / or, the side of the first outer ring 21 is provided with a stepped portion 111, and the groove wall of the slot 11 is provided with a limiting block 23 that abuts and cooperates with the stepped portion 111.
[0039] In one embodiment, the outer surface of the first outer ring 21 is provided with an outwardly protruding limiting block 23, and the first groove wall 112 of the slot 11 is provided with a stepped portion 111 that abuts against the limiting block 23. Thus, based on the insertion and engagement of the first outer ring 21 at the slot 11 and the buckle insertion portion 22, the abutting engagement of the limiting block 23 and the stepped portion 111 further enhances the stability and reliability of the insertion and engagement between the slot 11 and the first outer ring 21, thereby helping to further improve the positioning and concentric alignment accuracy of the positioning buckle 1.
[0040] Furthermore, after the limiting block 23 abuts against the step portion 111, there is a gap 5 between the end face of the first outer ring 21 and the top surface of the groove 11 (e.g., Figure 5 (As shown). After the air guard 2 and fan 3 are concentric and installed on the engine, this gap makes it easier to remove and separate the positioning clip 1 from the first outer ring 21.
[0041] The abutting part 13 is located on the side of the second outer ring 31 and abuts against the outer surface of the second outer ring 31. In this way, based on the fact that the slots 11 on the multiple positioning buckles 1 are engaged with the first outer ring 21, and the abutting part 13 on the multiple positioning buckles 1 is engaged with the second outer ring 31, the center of the first outer ring 21 and the center of the second outer ring 31 can be accurately positioned and aligned, so that the air shield 2 and the fan 3 are concentric before being assembled onto the engine.
[0042] Specifically, the abutment portion 13 is provided with an arc-shaped wall 132 (e.g., Figure 3 , 5 As shown, the arc-shaped wall 132 abuts against the outer surface of the second outer ring 31, and the arc-shaped wall 132 and the outer surface of the second outer ring 31 can achieve a better abutting fit.
[0043] The arc-shaped wall 132 and the second groove wall 113 are connected at one end to form a closed end. The abutment portion 13 is also provided with an extension wall 131 (such as an extension wall 131) connected to the arc-shaped wall 132. Figure 3 , 5As shown, the extension wall 131 extends outward toward the closed end of the arc-shaped wall 132, so that after the extension wall 131 abuts against the outer side of the second outer ring 31, it extends out to the edge of the second outer ring 31. In this way, through the joint cooperation of the arc-shaped wall 132 and the extension wall 131, the stability and reliability of the abutment part 13 and the second outer ring 31 can be improved, and it can abut against the fan 3 from both axial and radial directions, ensuring axial and radial accuracy, which helps to further improve the positioning and concentric alignment accuracy of the positioning buckle 1.
[0044] Preferably, the length of the arc-shaped wall 132 is less than the length of the second groove wall 113, which can reduce the production cost and raw material cost of the positioning buckle 1.
[0045] A gap 12 is provided between the second groove wall 113 and the abutment part 13 (e.g., ...). Figure 5 As shown), so that a safety gap d is formed between the first outer ring 21 and the second outer ring 31 (as shown). Figure 6 As shown), it can control the safety gap d between the first outer ring 21 and the second outer ring 31 to 8-10mm. Figure 1 As shown, the gap D between the traditional air collector shroud 4 and the fan 3 is generally maintained at 25-30mm. Therefore, the positioning buckle 1 in this embodiment can reduce the safety gap d, reduce the difficulty of aligning the center of the first outer ring 21 with the center of the second outer ring 31, achieve the gap fit between the air collector ring 2 and the fan 3, and ensure that the air collector ring 2 and the fan 3 are always concentrically assembled, so as to avoid scratching or collision between the air collector ring 2 and the fan 3. Without the risk of scratching or collision, noise can be reduced and heat dissipation can be improved.
[0046] Moreover, the positioning buckle 1 in this embodiment does not require the addition of auxiliary support blocks and cuboid-shaped bases, as is the case with the center positioning tool in CN214742369U. Therefore, the structure of the positioning buckle 1 is simpler, the design is more reasonable, and it can also reduce the raw material cost and production cost of the positioning buckle 1.
[0047] Although preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described, those skilled in the art, upon learning the basic inventive concept, can make other changes and modifications to these embodiments. Therefore, the appended claims are intended to be interpreted as including the preferred embodiments as well as all changes and modifications falling within the scope of the present invention.

The description of the above embodiments is only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core idea of this utility model. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation and application scope based on the idea of this utility model.
