Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of axial flow fan technology, and more specifically, to an air inlet protection device for an axial flow fan. Background Technology
[0002] When the driver of an existing axial flow fan is installed in the mounting sleeve, it is usually fixed with bolts. The driver will vibrate during operation, and long-term vibration can easily cause the bolts to loosen, resulting in unstable shaking of the driver and causing the fan blades to strike the mounting sleeve.
[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, patent document publication number CN222334038U discloses a novel axial flow fan, comprising an installation sleeve, an internal drive unit, fan blades mounted on the output shaft of the drive unit, and an installation structure. The installation structure includes a mating plate disposed on the surface of the drive unit and inserted into a retaining ring. A fixing bracket is provided on the surface of the retaining ring and is fixed to the inner wall of the installation sleeve by bolts. A limiting seat is provided on the inner wall of the installation sleeve, and a fastening structure is provided on the limiting seat.
[0004] However, it still has some drawbacks in actual use. For example, the axial flow fan uses pressure blocks to press and tighten the bolt installation points of the fixed frame, which improves the stability of the connection between the fixed frame and the installation sleeve. However, since there is no corresponding protective structure at the air inlet of the axial flow fan, foreign objects can easily enter the fan during long-term use, thus affecting the normal use of the fan. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the embodiments of this utility model provide an air inlet protection device for axial flow fans, so as to solve the problem that the air inlet of the existing axial flow fans does not have a protective structure.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an inlet protection device for an axial flow fan, including an installation sleeve, the inlet protection device for the axial flow fan further including...
[0007] A grille is detachably installed on one side of a mounting sleeve, and a sealing ring is provided around the grille, the surface of which fits against the edge of the mounting sleeve.
[0008] A connecting frame is fixedly installed on the side of the grid surface opposite to the mounting sleeve. A motor is provided on the side of the connecting frame. A control terminal is provided outside the motor. A gear is fixedly connected to the drive shaft of the motor.
[0009] Gear 2, the inner ring of gear 2 is fixedly connected to a connecting column, the surface of the connecting column is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the grid, and the outer edge of gear 2 meshes with the outer edge of gear 1;
[0010] An air supply mechanism is fixedly installed on the surface of a connecting frame. A control terminal is provided on the outside of the air supply mechanism. A rigid connecting pipe is fixedly connected to the air outlet of the air supply mechanism. The surface of the rigid connecting pipe is in contact with the inner wall of the connecting frame. One end of the rigid connecting pipe relative to the air supply mechanism is rotatably connected to one side of a connecting column.
[0011] An air supply chamber is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting column relative to the rigid connecting pipe.
[0012] It also includes a mounting plate and a snap-fit groove. The mounting plate is fixedly installed on the edge of the grid. The mounting plate is set with an arc surface structure. One side of the mounting plate is in contact with the surface of the mounting sleeve. The snap-fit groove is opened on the side of the mounting plate surface opposite to the mounting sleeve.
[0013] It also includes a fixing component, which is disposed on the side of the mounting sleeve near the grid.
[0014] The fixing assembly includes a connecting seat, a damping connecting shaft, a mounting bracket, a base, a spring, a guide post, a connecting plate, and a snap-fit post. The connecting seat is fixedly installed on the surface of the mounting sleeve. The top end of the mounting bracket is rotatably connected to the connecting seat via the damping connecting shaft. The base is located at the bottom end of the mounting bracket. One end of the spring is fixedly connected to the interior of the base, and the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to the interior of the guide post. The surface of the guide post is slidably connected to the inner wall of the base. The snap-fit post is fixedly connected to one end of the guide post via the connecting plate. The side of the snap-fit post is in contact with the inner wall of the mounting bracket, and the surface of the snap-fit post is in contact with the interior of the snap-fit groove.
[0015] The beneficial effects of the above-mentioned technical solution of this utility model are as follows:
[0016] In the above scheme, by installing a grille on one side of the air inlet of the mounting sleeve, foreign objects can be blocked. In addition, the motor and the air supply mechanism are started synchronously by the set control terminal one and control terminal two. The motor drives gear one to rotate, so that gear two meshing with it can rotate synchronously. This causes the connecting column connected to the inner ring of gear two and the air supply cavity to rotate around the grille surface. At the same time, the air supply mechanism generates air force. Finally, the air force blows out through the air supply cavity into the gaps of the grille. This not only blocks foreign objects from entering the fan and affecting normal operation, but also periodically blows away small foreign objects attached to the gaps of the grille, preventing foreign objects from affecting the ventilation efficiency of the grille, thereby improving the practicality of the device.
[0017] By moving the snap-fit post horizontally, the spring inside the guide post is stretched and deformed, and the snap-fit post separates from the snap-fit groove on the surface of the mounting plate. Then, the mounting bracket is rotated around the damping connecting shaft, causing the mounting bracket to rotate away from the surface of the mounting plate. After that, the grille can be separated and disassembled from the mounting sleeve by horizontal movement, so as to maintain the inside of the mounting sleeve or the grille and its corresponding components. This achieves quick assembly and disassembly of the grille and further improves the practicality of the device. Attached Figure Description

[0030] The control terminal 6 and control terminal 11 are both PLC controllers, which can be preset with time commands to synchronously start the motor 5 and the air supply mechanism 10 at specific time intervals, so that the air supply cavity 13 can automatically clean the grille 2, reducing the degree of human intervention.
[0031] Air supply chamber 13 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting post 9 relative to the rigid connecting pipe 12.
[0032] It also includes a mounting plate 14 and a snap-fit groove 15. The mounting plate 14 is fixedly installed on the edge of the grille 2.
