Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ventilation equipment technology, and more specifically, it relates to a ventilation fan. Background Technology
[0002] Many ventilation systems require providing appropriate airflow to specific spaces to ensure air quality and environmental comfort. Common ventilation equipment is usually set with a fixed airflow during installation. However, with changes in the usage environment, such as fluctuations in temperature, humidity, and pollutant concentration, fans with a fixed airflow may not be able to meet actual needs. This is especially true in some special applications, such as clean rooms, laboratories, and environments where temperature-controlled precision equipment is located. Excessive or insufficient ventilation flow may lead to unstable system performance and affect the accuracy of environmental control.
[0003] Most existing ventilation fans, while providing stable airflow, are not designed with flexible flow regulation in mind. The flow rate often needs to be adjusted manually or by external control devices. This process is not only cumbersome but also has low precision. In actual operation, the inability to achieve automatic adjustment or fine control often leads to excessive or insufficient ventilation flow, increasing energy consumption and reducing system operating efficiency. At the same time, the limited adjustment function of the ventilation fan itself restricts the applicability of the equipment and makes it unable to adapt to the changing needs of the operating environment.

[0029] Please see Figures 1-5 A ventilator includes a mounting housing 1, a fan 2 installed inside the mounting housing 1, and an adjustment mechanism on the outside of the mounting housing 1. The adjustment mechanism includes a mounting sleeve 3, an adjustment sleeve 4, a connecting frame 5, a screw 6, a support frame 7, a transmission sleeve 8, a sliding sleeve 9, an adjustment hole 10, an adjustment rod 11, and a positioning mechanism. The mounting sleeve 3 is connected to one end of the mounting housing 1, the adjustment sleeve 4 is rotatably connected to the top of the mounting sleeve 3, the connecting frame 5 is fixed inside the adjustment sleeve 4, the screw 6 is fixed to the ground of the connecting frame 5, and the support is fixed inside the mounting sleeve 3 and rotatably connected to the screw 6. The sleeve 8 is threaded to the outer wall of the screw 6. Multiple sets of adjustment holes 10 are provided on the sliding sleeve 9. Multiple sets of adjustment rods 11 are fixed to the outside of the support frame 7. The positioning mechanism includes positioning blocks 12, return springs 13, positioning grooves 14 and locking sleeves 15. Multiple sets of positioning blocks 12 slide on the outside of the adjusting sleeve 4. The return springs 13 are connected to the top of the multiple sets of positioning blocks 12 and the bottom end is connected to the outer wall of the adjusting sleeve 4. Multiple sets of positioning grooves 14 are provided on the outer wall of the mounting sleeve 3. The locking sleeves 15 slide on the outer wall of the mounting sleeve 3 and abut against the top of the multiple sets of positioning blocks 12.
[0030] Multiple sets of adjusting rods 11 are distributed in descending order of length to achieve graded sealing at different heights, making air volume adjustment more precise and adapting to various ventilation needs.
[0031] The inner wall of the mounting sleeve 3 is provided with directional strips 16. Multiple sets of directional strips 16 are provided and are all slidably connected to the sliding sleeve 9. The sliding direction of the sliding sleeve 9 is restricted by the directional strips 16 to avoid deviation and ensure the stability of the structure operation.
[0032] The outer wall of the mounting sleeve 3 is provided with guide bars 17. Multiple sets of guide bars 17 are provided and all are slidably connected to the locking sleeve 15. The cooperation between the guide bars 17 and the locking sleeve 15 guides the locking sleeve 15 to move along a set trajectory, thereby improving the adjustment and locking accuracy.
[0033] A locking mechanism is provided on the outside of the lock sleeve 15. The locking mechanism includes a support rod 18, a baffle 19, a rotating sleeve 20, a limiting plate 21, and a clearance groove 22. Multiple sets of support rods 18 are distributed on the outer wall of the lock sleeve 15. Multiple sets of baffles 19 are respectively fixed to the bottom of multiple sets of support rods 18. The rotating sleeve 20 rotates on the outer wall of the mounting sleeve 3. The limiting plate 21 is fixed on the outer wall of the rotating sleeve 20. Multiple sets of clearance grooves 22 are distributed on the outside of the limiting plate 21. This mechanism realizes the limiting and unlocking functions through rotation, ensuring the stability and safety of the adjusted state.
[0034] A tension spring 23 is connected to the bottom surface of the locking sleeve 15. A thrust bearing 24 is connected between the bottom end of the tension spring 23 and the limiting plate 21. The thrust bearing 24 reduces the friction when the limiting plate 21 rotates, and the tension spring 23 provides the restoring force to achieve smooth locking and reset.
[0035] The area of multiple clearance grooves 22 is larger than that of baffle 19. By ensuring that the baffle 19 can be smoothly inserted during rotation, the unlocking operation is smooth and without jamming.
[0036] The top of the multiple adjusting rods 11 and the outer side of the adjusting hole 10 are all provided with rounded corners. The rounded corner design can reduce friction and wear, prevent jamming, and improve the smoothness of the adjustment action and the service life of the structure.
[0037] In this embodiment, when in use, the fan 2 is activated to draw in and exhaust indoor air. When it is necessary to adjust the ventilation volume, the rotating adjustment sleeve 4 drives the screw 6 to rotate through the connecting bracket 5, so that the screw 6 and the transmission sleeve 8 are threaded together, so that the transmission sleeve 8 drives the moving sleeve to slide and change the number of multiple sets of adjustment rods 11 blocking the adjustment holes 10. The flow area of the airflow is adjusted by the number of multiple sets of adjustment holes 10 blocked, thereby adjusting the ventilation volume.
[0038] More specifically, after adjustment, the locking sleeve 15 is pushed against the top of the multiple positioning blocks 12 so that its bottom end is engaged in the positioning groove 14. At the same time, the multiple reset springs 13 are compressed and the tension spring 23 is stretched. Then, the rotating sleeve 20 is rotated to drive the limiting plate 21 to rotate, so that the multiple baffles 19 abut against the outside of the limiting plate 21. When unlocking is required, the rotating sleeve 20 is rotated to move the clearance groove 22 to the inside of the multiple baffles 19, so that the multiple baffles 19 release their abutment against the limiting plate 21. Then, the tension spring 23 pulls the locking sleeve 15 to release its abutment against the multiple positioning blocks 12, and the multiple reset springs 13 pull the positioning blocks 12 away from the positioning groove 14, releasing the positioning of the adjusting sleeve 4.
[0039] In summary, when the entire equipment is in use or running: when in use, the fan 2 is turned on to draw in and exhaust the indoor air. When it is necessary to adjust the ventilation volume, the rotating adjustment sleeve 4 drives the screw 6 to rotate through the connecting frame 5, so that the screw 6 and the transmission sleeve 8 are threaded together, so that the transmission sleeve 8 drives the moving sleeve to slide and change the number of multiple sets of adjustment rods 11 blocking the adjustment holes 10. The number of multiple sets of adjustment holes 10 blocked is used to adjust the airflow area, thereby adjusting the ventilation volume.
[0040] After adjustment, push the locking sleeve 15 against the top of the multiple positioning blocks 12 so that its bottom end engages in the positioning groove 14. At the same time, compress the multiple reset springs 13 and stretch the tension spring 23. Then rotate the rotating sleeve 20 to drive the limiting plate 21 to rotate, so that the multiple baffles 19 abut against the outside of the limiting plate 21. When unlocking is required, rotate the rotating sleeve 20 to move the clearance groove 22 to the inside of the multiple baffles 19, so that the multiple baffles 19 release their abutment against the limiting plate 21. Then, the tension spring 23 pulls the locking sleeve 15 to release its abutment against the multiple positioning blocks 12, and the multiple reset springs 13 pull the positioning blocks 12 out of the positioning groove 14, releasing the positioning of the adjusting sleeve 4.
