Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of fan lamp head technology, and specifically relates to a fan grille and a fan. Background Technology

[0002] Fans are extremely common heat dissipation and cooling devices used in various fields of life and production. There are two types of fans: axial and radial, mainly classified by the direction of airflow when the fan is working. When an axial fan is working, the blades push the air to flow in the same direction as the axis. Due to its advantages such as simple structure and large air volume, axial fans are highly adaptable and have a wide range of applications.

[0003] Axial flow fans mainly consist of an impeller and a mesh cover. The mesh cover surrounds the impeller, providing safety protection and, to some extent, increasing wind speed and guiding the airflow. Traditional fan mesh covers are made of thin iron wire or plastic material of the same shape to form a mesh structure. When the impeller rotates, the gas enters the impeller axially from the air inlet. The gas energy is increased by the pushing force of the blades on the impeller, and then the axial wind is delivered. The wind delivered by the impeller passes through the mesh cover and is blown out to the outside. The axial wind generated by an axial flow fan is generally dispersed and has a relatively slow wind speed, reducing the amount of air delivered in the same amount of time. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main objective of this invention is to provide a fan guard and a fan. A first air-gathering groove is provided on the recessed side of each arc-shaped guide plate. One side of the first air-gathering groove communicates with the internal space of the fan guard, and the other side extends smoothly to the air outlet direction of the arc-shaped guide plate. The first air-gathering groove is used to increase the speed of the airflow from the front fan guard. This solution overcomes the shortcomings of traditional fan guards, which cannot change the generally dispersed airflow and slow speed of axial wind generated by axial fans, resulting in reduced airflow volume in the same time period. By cooperating between each arc-shaped guide plate and its first air-gathering groove, the structure of the fan guard is improved, allowing the dispersed airflow to form a spiraling, condensed airflow after passing through the fan guard. This concentrates the airflow and significantly increases the airflow speed discharged from the fan guard, facilitating the promotion of fans equipped with this fan guard.

[0030] Fans are extremely common heat dissipation and cooling devices used in various fields of life and production. There are two types of fans: axial and radial, mainly classified by the direction of airflow when the fan is working. When an axial fan is working, the blades push the air to flow in the same direction as the axis. Due to its advantages such as simple structure and large air volume, axial fans are highly adaptable and have a wide range of applications.

[0031] Axial flow fans mainly consist of an impeller and a mesh cover. The mesh cover surrounds the impeller, providing safety protection and, to some extent, increasing wind speed and guiding the airflow. Traditional fan mesh covers are made of thin iron wire or plastic material of the same shape to form a mesh structure. When the impeller rotates, the gas enters the impeller axially from the air inlet. The gas energy is increased by the pushing force of the blades on the impeller, and then the axial wind is delivered. The wind delivered by the impeller passes through the mesh cover and is blown out to the outside. The axial wind generated by an axial flow fan is generally dispersed and has a relatively slow wind speed, reducing the amount of air delivered in the same amount of time.
