In use, the bushing 3 is first placed on the rear cover plate 2 and fixed by the positioning pin 4 and positioning hole 5. Then, the front cover plate 1 is placed on the rear cover plate 2 and fixed by the positioning pin 4 and positioning hole 5. This completes the impeller assembly. The fixing mechanism 6 then secures the front cover plate 1 and rear cover plate 2, preventing them from easily falling off. Furthermore, the front cover plate 1 and rear cover plate 2 have identical shapes and are symmetrically arranged, reducing the types of molds required, facilitating large-scale production, and lowering costs. The identical shapes of the front cover plate 1 and rear cover plate 2 also enhance component interchangeability and reduce maintenance and spare parts costs.
