Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of outdoor umbrella technology and relates to a magnetic snap-fit ​​spray fan structure for outdoor umbrellas. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional outdoor umbrellas only serve the functions of sunshade and lighting. When used in hot weather, they are usually equipped with handheld fans. For ease of use, some outdoor umbrellas have fans attached to their frames, which can be turned on and off by switching the fan on and off after the umbrella is opened.

[0003] Existing fan assemblies on umbrella frames, such as the Chinese patent application [Authorization Announcement No.: CN221195428U], disclose a sun umbrella fan assembly, including a sun umbrella, wherein the sun umbrella includes a plurality of umbrella ribs, an umbrella canopy, a plurality of support rods, an umbrella pole, and a lower umbrella plate connected to the umbrella pole, wherein the plurality of umbrella ribs include a first end and a second end, the second end being connected to the umbrella canopy, and the first end being attached to the umbrella pole, wherein each of the plurality of support rods is connected between one of the plurality of umbrella ribs and the lower umbrella plate, at least one of the plurality of support rods includes a fan device that can be attached, and at least one support rod including a fan device also includes two support rod portions positioned opposite each other, the first support rod portion being attached to the umbrella rib, the second support rod portion being attached to the lower umbrella plate, and both of the two opposing support rod portions being attached to the fan device disposed therebetween.

[0004] The installation of the attachable fan device in the above structure requires two opposing support rods to be installed on the attachable fan device. The two support rods can be alternately installed with the umbrella ribs, meaning that the support rods can also serve as umbrella ribs. This means that the attachable fan device requires modification of the umbrella frame, making it impossible to install the above-mentioned attachable fan structure on ordinary parasol frames, thus reducing the versatility of the attachable fan structure. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned problems in existing technologies by proposing a magnetic snap-fit ​​spray fan structure for outdoor umbrellas. The technical problem this invention aims to solve is: how to address the poor versatility of existing fan structures.

[0006] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0007] A magnetic snap-fit ​​spray fan structure for an outdoor umbrella, the outdoor umbrella including an umbrella frame including multiple interconnected connecting rods, the fan structure including a fan housing and fan blades oscillatingly connected to the fan housing, characterized in that at least one opening is provided on the outer wall of the fan housing, a magnet is provided in the opening of the fan housing, the connecting rods are made of iron material and the magnet of the fan housing can be attracted to the connecting rod, or a snap-fit ​​shell is snapped onto the connecting rod, at least one iron plate is provided on the outer wall of the snap-fit ​​shell, and the magnet of the fan housing can be attracted to the iron plate.

[0008] An umbrella frame consists of multiple connecting rods. Outdoor umbrella frames are typically formed by interconnecting uprights, pull rods, diagonal braces, upper ribs, and lower ribs. To facilitate fan operation, magnets are installed inside the opening of the fan housing. When the connecting rods in an outdoor umbrella are made of iron, the magnets on the fan housing can magnetically attract any connecting rod, thus securing the fan housing. When fanning is needed, the fan structure is activated, and the fan blades rotate to generate airflow. However, if the connecting rods in the umbrella frame are not made of iron, the magnets on the fan housing cannot directly attract the connecting rods. Therefore, a snap-fit ​​shell is provided to snap the shell onto the connecting rod. An iron plate is located on the outer wall of the snap-fit ​​shell, and the magnets on the fan housing magnetically attract the iron plate. This snap-fit ​​shell enables a quick connection between the fan housing and the connecting rods of the umbrella frame, improving the convenience and versatility of the fan structure connection.

[0009] In the above-mentioned magnetic snap-fit ​​spray fan structure for outdoor umbrellas, the umbrella frame includes a lower umbrella disc and a lower umbrella rib hinged to the lower umbrella disc. The connecting rod is the lower umbrella rib. A light strip is provided on the lower end surface of the lower umbrella rib along the length of the lower umbrella rib. One side of the fan housing is magnetically attached to one side of the lower umbrella rib and the fan blades are facing downwards.

[0010] When outdoor umbrellas need to meet multiple needs such as lighting and fanning, most existing outdoor umbrellas place light strips on the lower and upper umbrella ribs to achieve lighting. Since the light strips are placed on the lower end of the lower umbrella rib, one side of the fan housing is attached to one side of the lower umbrella rib, and the fan blades are set downwards. This achieves good fanning effect without affecting the setting of the light strips. The two are relatively independent, thus ensuring the stability of the fan structure installation and use.

[0011] In the above-mentioned magnetic snap-fit ​​spray fan structure for outdoor umbrellas, a drive motor is provided inside the fan housing, a swing frame is fixedly connected to the drive shaft of the drive motor, the fan blades are hinged to the swing frame, and the fan blades are located below the light strip.

[0012] By fixing a swing frame to the drive shaft of the drive motor, the drive motor drives the swing frame to swing, and the swing frame can drive the fan blades to rotate, thereby achieving airflow. The position setting of the fan blades can prevent them from touching the light strip when they rotate, ensuring the safety of the fan structure.

[0013] In the above-mentioned magnetic snap-fit ​​spray fan structure for outdoor umbrellas, the fan housing is elongated, the fan blades are located on one side wall of the fan housing, and magnets are provided on the other three side walls of the fan housing.

[0014] Magnets are installed on the other three side walls of the fan housing, which facilitates installation of the fan housing in multiple directions and further improves the versatility of the fan structure.

[0015] In the above-mentioned magnetic snap-fit ​​spray fan structure for outdoor umbrellas, the snap-fit ​​shell is elongated, with a snap-fit ​​opening on one side and a snap hook on that side. The snap-fit ​​shell can snap onto the connecting rod, and the snap hook abuts against the outer wall of the connecting rod.

[0016] The snap-fit ​​shell adopts a long strip design, which increases the area that the iron plate can be set, thereby improving the stability of the magnetic attraction between the fan housing and the snap-fit ​​shell. Furthermore, the design of the snap-fit ​​shell and the snap hook can enhance the stability of the snap-fit ​​shell during use.

[0017] In the above-mentioned magnetic snap-fit ​​spray fan structure for outdoor umbrellas, the umbrella frame includes a lower umbrella plate and a lower umbrella rib hinged to the lower umbrella plate. The connecting rod is the lower umbrella rib. A light strip is provided on the lower end face of the connecting rod along the length of the connecting rod. The fan housing is magnetically attached to the upper end face of the connecting rod with the fan blades facing upward.

[0018] The fan housing can also be placed on the upper surface of the lower umbrella rib. With the fan blades facing upwards, ventilation can be achieved, thereby enabling airflow and cooling.

[0019] In the above-mentioned magnetic snap-fit ​​spray fan structure for outdoor umbrellas, the fan housing is equipped with an ultrasonic sprayer and a water tank. The water tank is connected to the ultrasonic sprayer. When the fan housing is magnetically attached to one side of the connecting rod, the spray nozzle of the ultrasonic sprayer is set downwards.

[0020] By incorporating an existing ultrasonic sprayer into the fan housing, a spray can be generated simultaneously with fanning, resulting in cooler air and further achieving rapid cooling.

[0021] In the above-mentioned magnetic snap-fit ​​spray fan structure for outdoor umbrellas, an ultrasonic sprayer is provided inside the fan housing, and a water inlet pipe communicating with the ultrasonic sprayer is provided on the fan housing.

[0022] Water is supplied to the ultrasonic sprayer through the water inlet pipe, so that the fan structure does not need to be removed for water replenishment during long-term use. Instead, it can be directly connected to an external water pipe through the water inlet pipe, improving the ease of use of the fan structure.

[0023] Compared with existing technologies, the magnetic snap-fit ​​spray fan structure of this outdoor umbrella has the following advantages: When the connecting rod in the outdoor umbrella is made of iron, the magnet on the fan housing can be magnetically attracted to any connecting rod, thus fixing the fan housing. When fanning is needed, the fan structure is activated, and the fan blades rotate to generate airflow. However, when the connecting rod in the umbrella frame is not made of iron, the magnet on the fan housing cannot be directly magnetically attracted to the connecting rod. Therefore, a snap-fit ​​shell is provided to snap the shell onto the connecting rod. An iron plate is provided on the outer wall of the snap-fit ​​shell, and the magnet on the fan housing is magnetically attracted to the iron plate. The snap-fit ​​shell enables a quick connection between the fan housing and the connecting rod of the umbrella frame, improving the convenience and versatility of the fan structure connection.
