Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fan technology, and more specifically to a multi-segment, modular creative fan. Background Technology
[0002] As a traditional household item and a carrier of cultural art, the fan has a wide range of applications in daily life, decoration, and performance. Traditional fans typically consist of fixed fan ribs and a fan surface. The ribs are usually connected in a fixed manner, making it impossible to adjust the angle between them as needed. This relatively fixed structure and shape limits the fan's flexibility and practicality, making it difficult to meet modern people's demands for creativity and versatility. Furthermore, once the fan surface of a traditional fan is made, it is difficult to alter, failing to meet users' needs for personalization and diversity. For example, in special occasions such as performances or themed parties, users may want the fan to be able to quickly change according to different themes and styles, something traditional fans cannot do.
[0003] Meanwhile, existing fans lack flexibility in adjusting the opening and closing of the fan ribs. Many fans have fixed rib tension, making it difficult to adjust according to actual usage needs. After a period of use, the gaps between the ribs may change, causing the fan to open and close unevenly or fail to maintain the ideal angle, affecting the user experience. Furthermore, the connection between the fan surface and the fan ribs often lacks stability and convenience. Common connection methods may loosen or detach during long-term use or frequent fan surface replacement, and replacing the fan surface is relatively complicated, making it inconvenient for users to replace and assemble themselves.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a fan structure that is flexible, supports modular splicing, and is highly stable, in order to meet users' higher requirements for fans in terms of personalization, flexibility, and practicality. Utility Model Content
[0005] This invention provides a multi-segment, modular creative fan to solve the problems existing in the prior art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a multi-segment, modular creative fan, comprising: multiple elongated fan ribs, one end of which is connected by an adjustable fan nail, allowing the fan ribs to rotate around the fan nail as an axis; the fan surface is detachably connected to the other end of the fan ribs via an extension; and a clamping arm is provided at the end of the fan ribs near the fan surface, which can clamp the fan surface.
[0007] Preferably, the fan nail includes a cylindrical threaded screw and a pentagonal nut, which work together to adjust the tightness between the fan ribs and maintain the angle of the fan ribs.
[0008] Preferably, the fan rib is provided with a first clamping arm and a second clamping arm at the end near the fan surface, and a toothed protrusion is provided at the junction of the first clamping arm and the second clamping arm. The protrusions on the two clamping arms mesh with each other to increase the stability of clamping.
[0009] Preferably, the two clamping arms are arranged in parallel with a notch in the middle. The notch is wider at the end near the fan nail and narrower at the end near the clamping arm. The notch provides an elastic space between the two clamping arms.
[0010] Preferably, an adjusting component is provided on the side wall of one side of the fan rib. The adjusting component is a long strip-shaped push block. The bottom of the push block is connected to an L-shaped adjusting arm. The side of the adjusting arm facing the push block has a protrusion. The L-shaped fold of the adjusting arm and the protrusion pass through the side wall of one side of the fan rib and are accommodated in the gap between the two clamping arms.
[0011] Preferably, the elongated push block has multiple anti-slip protrusions, which increase friction and make it easier to push the adjustment component during use.
[0012] Preferably, a groove is provided on one side wall of the fan rib. The groove is used to accommodate the push block in the adjustment component. The depth of the groove is the same as the height of the push block in the adjustment component. When the adjustment component is placed in the groove, the side wall of the fan rib can remain flat and will not affect the opening and closing of the fan.
[0013] Preferably, multiple elongated extensions are bonded to the connection end between the fan surface and the fan rib, with one end of the extension protruding from the fan surface.
[0014] Preferably, the fan-shaped surface is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, or it can be circular, square, or irregular in shape.
[0015] Preferably, the fan-shaped surface consists of multiple individual sheet-like components, which are circular, square, or irregular in shape.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0017] This multi-segment, modular creative fan features a fan surface that is detachably connected to the fan ribs via an extension. Users can easily change the fan surface according to their preferences and different usage scenarios. The fan surface can be fan-shaped (wider at the top and narrower at the bottom), round, square, or irregularly shaped, or it can consist of multiple individual pieces, also available in round, square, or irregular shapes. Whether for everyday use, performances, themed parties, or other special occasions, users can quickly change the fan surface to better blend the fan with the environment and atmosphere. This greatly satisfies users' needs for personalization and diversity, allowing them to easily create a unique fan.
[0018] Since both the fan ribs and the fan surface can be disassembled and combined, the fan of this invention is more convenient to carry and store. Users can easily fold the fan into a compact size for easy portability.
[0019] The fan rivets utilize a design where cylindrical threaded screws and pentagonal nuts work together to easily adjust the tightness between the fan ribs. Users can adjust the ribs to a suitable tightness according to their actual usage habits and needs, ensuring the fan maintains an ideal angle, guaranteeing smooth opening and closing, and improving comfort and flexibility. Even after a period of use, if the gaps between the fan ribs change, adjusting the fan rivets can restore the fan's good performance and extend its lifespan. Multiple long, strip-shaped fan ribs are connected by adjustable fan rivets, allowing the ribs to rotate freely around the rivets as an axis. This allows for the assembly of fans of different shapes and sizes as needed, greatly increasing the fan's creativity and practicality.
[0020] The fan rib has a clamping arm near the fan surface. A toothed protrusion is located at the junction of the first and second clamping arms. These protrusions mesh with each other, increasing the clamping stability and effectively preventing the fan surface from loosening or falling off during use. The two clamping arms are arranged parallel to each other with a notch in the middle. The notch is wider near the fan nail and narrower near the clamping arm, providing a flexible space between the two arms. Additionally, an adjustment mechanism is located on one side wall of the fan rib. By pushing the long, narrow push block, the L-shaped adjustment arm can be adjusted, allowing users to quickly install and remove the fan surface. The operation is simple and convenient.
[0021] The elongated push block has multiple anti-slip protrusions, increasing friction and making it easier to push the adjustment component. Furthermore, a groove is provided on one side wall of the fan rib to accommodate the push block in the adjustment component. When the adjustment component is placed in the groove, the side wall of the fan rib remains flat, not affecting the opening and closing of the fan, thus ensuring the overall aesthetics and practicality of the fan.

[0034] First Embodiment
[0035] Please see the appendix Figure 1-2 This utility model discloses a multi-segment, modular creative fan, which includes multiple long strip-shaped fan ribs 3 and a detachable fan surface 1. One end of the multiple fan ribs 3 is connected by an adjustable fan nail 4, so that the fan ribs 3 can be opened in a fan shape.
[0036] The fan nail 4 includes a cylindrical threaded screw and a pentagonal nut. The two work together to adjust the tightness between the fan ribs 3 so that the fan ribs maintain an angle. When the fan nail 4 is loose, the angle of the fan ribs 3 can be adjusted at will. When the fan nail 4 is tight, the angle of the fan ribs 3 can be maintained.
[0037] The fan rib 3 is provided with a first clamping arm 7 and a second clamping arm 8 at one end near the fan surface 1, and the fan rib 3 can clamp the fan surface 1 through the clamping arm.
[0038] The two clamping arms are set in parallel with a notch in the middle. The notch is wider at the end near the fan nail 4 and narrower at the end near the clamping arm. The notch allows the two clamping arms to have elastic space.
[0039] The first clamping arm 7 and the second clamping arm 8 are provided with toothed protrusions at the junction. The protrusions on the two clamping arms mesh with each other to increase the stability of clamping.
[0040] An adjusting component 5 is also provided on the side wall of one side of the fan rib 3. The adjusting component 5 is a long strip-shaped push block. The bottom of the push block is connected to an L-shaped adjusting arm 9. The adjusting arm 9 has a protrusion 10 on the side facing the push block. The L-shaped folding part of the adjusting arm 9 and the protrusion 10 pass through the side wall of one side of the fan rib 3 and are accommodated in the gap between the two clamping arms.
[0041] The elongated push block of the adjusting component 5 has multiple anti-slip protrusions, which increases friction and makes it easier to push the adjusting component 5 during use.
[0042] A groove 6 is also provided on one side wall of the fan rib 3. The groove 6 is used to accommodate the push block in the adjusting member 5. The depth of the groove 6 is the same as the height of the push block in the adjusting member 5. When the adjusting member 5 is placed in the groove 6, the side wall of the fan rib 3 can remain flat and will not affect the opening and closing of the fan.
[0043] The vertical length of the groove 6 is greater than the length of the push block in the adjusting member 5, allowing the adjusting member 5 to slide up and down in the groove 6. When the adjusting member 5 is at the bottom of the groove 6, the width of the notch between the two clamping arms is exactly equal to the width of the protrusion 10 on the adjusting member 5, and the two clamping arms maintain the clamping state at this time. When the adjusting member 5 is pushed to the top of the groove 6, the protrusion 10 on the adjusting member 5 also slides. At this time, the protrusion 10 is stuck at the narrow part of the notch, changing the width of the notch. At this time, the first clamping arm 7 and the second clamping arm 8 open.
[0044] The fan surface 1 is a fan shape that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. It is made of lightweight materials such as Xuan paper, silk, bamboo, wood, and plastic. It is treated with multiple layers of adhesive and creases to maintain its flexibility and make it easy to fold.
[0045] Multiple elongated extensions 2 are bonded to the connection end between the fan surface 1 and the fan rib 3. One end of the extension 2 protrudes from the fan surface 1. The extension 2 can maintain the integrity of the pattern on the fan surface 1 when the fan rib 3 holds the fan surface 1, and can also serve as a skeleton to support the fan surface 1 and maintain its shape.
[0046] In use, loosen the fan nail 4, open the fan ribs 3, select the appropriate fan surface 1, push the adjusting piece 5 to the top of the groove 7, the first clamping arm 7 and the second clamping arm 8 open, place the extension part 2 on the fan surface 1 inside the first clamping arm 7 and the second clamping arm 8, push the adjusting piece 5 to the bottom of the groove 7, the first clamping arm 7 and the second clamping arm 8 close. Repeat the operation for each fan rib 3 corresponding to the extension part 2. The fan surface 1 is clamped on the fan rib 3 through the extension part 2. After clamping, adjust the opening angle of the fan rib 3 using the fan nail 4, tighten the fan nail 4, and the fan assembly is complete. When it is not necessary to replace the fan surface 1, the fan can be freely stored and closed by adjusting the tightness of the fan nail 4.
[0047] Second Embodiment
[0048] Please see the appendix Figure 3 This is the second embodiment of the present invention. Unlike the first embodiment, the fan surface 1 is square, round or other shapes. Multiple extensions 2 are provided at the connection between the fan surface 1 and the fan ribs 3. The fan ribs 3 can be clamped one by one by the number of extensions 2. The remaining fan ribs 3 can be folded down and kept perpendicular to the fan surface 1 to serve as the fan handle.
[0049] Third Embodiment
[0050] Please see the appendix Figure 4This is the third embodiment of the present utility model. Unlike the first embodiment, the fan surface 1 is a series of individual sheet-like entities. The entities can be square, round or other shapes. They can be grouped together with the same shape, or irregularly shaped entities can be indirectly set to increase the interest and aesthetics of the fan surface 1.
[0051] The fan surface 1 can be a beautiful landscape picture, or a celebrity cartoon card, or it can be printed with ancient poems or English words, adding the function of a fan while cooling the air.
[0052] When the fan surface 1 is a collectible card of a celebrity or anime character, or a poem, the extension 2 inside the fan surface 1 can be omitted to maintain the integrity of the card and make it convenient for the user to replace the card at any time.
[0053] Please see the appendix Figure 5 When the fan surface 1 consists of individual pieces, the clamping arms of the fan rib 3 can be widened. At this time, multiple individual pieces can be clamped on one fan rib 3, and the individual pieces overlap each other to form a more stable fan surface 1.
[0054] The various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner, with each embodiment focusing on its differences from other embodiments. Similar or identical parts between embodiments can be referred to interchangeably. For the apparatus disclosed in the embodiments, since they correspond to the methods disclosed in the embodiments, the description is relatively simple; relevant parts can be referred to the method section.
[0055] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use the present invention.
