[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fan technology, specifically to a water-cooled fan. Background Technology

[0002] Factories and other workplaces need to cool down in hot weather, so cooling equipment such as fans is required. In addition, to further improve the cooling effect, some fans can use water for cooling. Generally, the water is atomized and then blown out by the fan to achieve cooling. However, this method can easily lead to high humidity in the cooling area, which cannot be used in some production environments with high humidity requirements. At the same time, it also consumes a lot of water, resulting in water waste. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a water-cooled fan that solves the aforementioned problems existing in current fans.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] A water-cooled fan includes a housing, a water-cooling assembly, a water circulation assembly, and an air outlet assembly. An air inlet is provided on the side wall of the housing. The water-cooling assembly is disposed on each side wall of the housing. The water circulation assembly is disposed within the housing. The air outlet assembly is disposed at the top of the housing. The water-cooling assembly includes a water spray pipe and a water-cooling tank. The water spray pipe is disposed on the upper part of the side wall of the housing. The water-cooling tank is disposed vertically on the side wall of the housing and located below the water spray pipe. The water circulation assembly is connected to the water spray pipe. Water sprayed from the water spray pipe flows out of the water-cooling tank and is then reintroduced into the water spray pipe via the water circulation assembly to form a circulation. Air is input through the air inlet into the water-cooling tank, cooled, and then output through the air outlet assembly.

[0006] Furthermore, a water-passing plate is provided in the water-cooling tank. The water-passing plate is continuously bent along the vertical direction of the water-cooling tank. The water-passing plate is covered with water-passing holes for water to flow down. The water sprayed from the water spray pipe is dispersed through the water holes and flows into the water circulation component.

[0007] Furthermore, the water spray pipe is positioned above the water cooling tank along the width direction of the water cooling tank, and a plurality of water spray holes are spaced apart at the bottom of the water spray pipe along the axial direction of the water spray pipe, through which water in the water spray pipe is sprayed into the water cooling tank.

[0008] Furthermore, the water circulation component includes a water tank and a water pump. The water tank is located at the bottom of the tank, and the water pump is located inside the tank. The water pump inputs water from the water tank into the spray pipe.

[0009] Furthermore, a filter screen is provided at the bottom of the water tank, and the water pump is disposed in the filter screen.

[0010] Furthermore, the air outlet assembly includes an air outlet, fan blades, and a motor. The air outlet is located at the top of the housing, the fan blades are disposed in the air outlet, and the motor is connected to the fan blades.

[0011] Furthermore, a partition is provided in the upper part of the housing, an air outlet is provided on the partition, the fan blade is located above the partition, and an air filter is provided on the partition at the air outlet.

[0012] Furthermore, multiple air inlets are provided, and each air inlet is spaced apart on the upper part of the side wall of the housing.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] This utility model of a water-cooled fan utilizes a water-cooling component installed on the side wall of the housing. Water is sprayed into a water-cooling tank via a spray pipe, and air enters the tank through the air inlet, directly contacting the water for heat exchange and cooling. This is unlike the cooling process where atomized water diffuses directly into the air, significantly reducing the moisture content in the air and effectively controlling the humidity in the cooling area. This makes it suitable for humidity-sensitive production environments, broadening the application range of water-cooled cooling equipment. Furthermore, this water-cooled fan is equipped with a water circulation component. Water sprayed from the spray pipe flows out of the water-cooling tank and is then recycled back into the spray pipe via the water circulation component. This water circulation design allows water to continuously flow through the system, cooling the air. Only a small amount of water lost due to evaporation needs to be replenished periodically, greatly reducing water consumption and improving water resource utilization. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, this water-cooled fan mainly consists of a housing 1, a water-cooling component 2, a water circulation component 3, and an air outlet component 4.

[0026] The housing 1 has a rectangular structure, providing support and a mounting base for the entire water-cooled fan. Multiple air inlets 11 are spaced apart on the upper side walls of the housing 1. In this embodiment, six air inlets 11 are evenly distributed on the upper parts of two opposite side walls of the housing 1, allowing outside air to enter the housing 1 through these air inlets 11.

[0027] Figures 1-3 As shown, the water-cooling assembly 2 is installed on each side wall of the housing 1 to cool the air entering the housing 1. The water-cooling assembly 2 includes a water spray pipe 21 and a water-cooling tank 22. The water spray pipe 21 is positioned above the water-cooling tank 22 along the width direction of the water-cooling tank 22, and is fixedly installed on the upper part of the side wall of the housing 1 by a bracket. Multiple water spray holes 211 are spaced apart at the bottom of the water spray pipe 21 along the axial direction of the water spray pipe 21, through which water stored in the water spray pipe 21 can be sprayed out. Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the water cooling tank 22 is installed on the side wall of the box 1 in the vertical direction and is located below the water spray pipe 21. The water sprayed from the water spray pipe 21 will fall into the water cooling tank 22. Figure 6 As shown, a water-passing plate 23 is provided in the water-cooling tank 22. The water-passing plate 23 is continuously bent along the vertical direction of the water-cooling tank 22. This bending structure can increase the flow path and time of water on the water-passing plate 23. The water-passing plate 23 is covered with water-passing holes 231 for water to flow down. The water sprayed from the water spray pipe 21 will first fall onto the water-passing plate 23, be dispersed by the water holes 231, and then flow into the water circulation component 3. The water dispersed by the water holes 231 will form fine water droplets or water mist, which will fully contact the air entering the water-cooling tank 22 to achieve air cooling.

[0028] Figure 4 As shown, the water circulation component 3 is installed in the housing 1 to achieve water recycling and reduce water waste. The water circulation component 3 includes a water tank 31 and a water pump 32. The water tank 31 is located at the bottom of the housing 1 and is used to collect water flowing out of the water-cooling tank 22. A filter screen 33 is installed at the bottom of the water tank 31, and the water pump 32 is installed in the filter screen 33. The inlet of the water pump 32 is connected to the water tank 31, and the outlet is connected to the spray pipe 21 through a pipe. When the water pump 32 is working, it can input the water filtered by the filter screen 33 in the water tank 31 into the spray pipe 21, thereby forming a water circulation and enabling the water to continuously cool the air.

[0029] Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the air outlet assembly 4 is located at the top of the housing 1 and is used to exhaust the cooled air from the housing 1. The air outlet assembly 4 includes an air outlet 41, a fan blade 42, and a motor 43. The air outlet 41 is located at the top of the housing 1 and serves as the exhaust channel for the cooled air. The fan blade 42 is disposed in the air outlet 41, and the motor 43 is connected to the fan blade 42. In this embodiment, the motor 43 is fixedly installed on the top of the housing 1 by bolts, and the output shaft of the motor 43 is fixedly connected to the central shaft of the fan blade 42. When the motor 43 is working, it can drive the fan blade 42 to rotate, thereby creating a negative pressure inside the housing 1, allowing outside air to enter the housing 1 through the air inlet 11, be cooled by the water cooling assembly 2, and then be discharged through the air outlet 41.

[0030] also, Figure 2 As shown, a partition 5 is provided in the upper part of the housing 1, and the partition 5 is fixed to the inner wall of the housing 1 by welding or bolting. An air outlet 51 is provided on the partition 5, and a fan blade 42 is located above the partition 5. An air filter 6 is provided on the partition 5 at the air outlet 51. The air filter 6 can filter the cooled air, remove dust and other impurities from the air, and improve the quality of the exhaust air.

[0031] The working process of this water-cooled fan is as follows:

[0032] The water pump 32 and motor 43 are started. The water pump 32 delivers water filtered by the filter screen 33 from the water tank 31 to the spray pipe 21. The water is sprayed out from the spray hole 211 at the bottom of the spray pipe 21, falls onto the water plate 23 of the water cooling tank 22, and flows into the water tank 31 after being dispersed by the water holes 231, forming a water circulation. At the same time, the motor 43 drives the fan blade 42 to rotate, creating a negative pressure inside the housing 1. Outside air enters the housing 1 through the air inlet 11 and enters the water cooling tank 22, where it comes into full contact with the water dispersed by the water holes 231, achieving cooling. The cooled air passes through the air outlet 51 on the partition 5 and is filtered by the air filter element 6 before being discharged from the air outlet 41, thus achieving the purpose of cooling and avoiding the problem of not being able to use it in production environments with high humidity requirements due to excessive humidity, while also reducing water waste.
