Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of axial flow fan blades, and specifically relates to an enhanced axial flow fan blade. Background Technology

[0002] Axial flow fans have a wide range of applications in daily life. Axial flow refers to airflow that moves in the same direction as the fan blade axis. Examples include electric fans and air conditioner outdoor unit fans, which operate in an axial flow manner. Axial flow fans with axial blades are typically used in applications requiring higher flow rates but lower pressure, and are widely used in the air conditioning industry.

[0003] According to Chinese Patent No. CN217176961U, an axial flow fan blade is disclosed, including a hub and blades. The blade includes a root, a tip, a leading edge, and a trailing edge. The root is connected to the hub, the tip is located away from the hub, the leading edge is located at the front end of the axial flow fan blade in the direction of rotation, and the trailing edge is located at the rear end of the axial flow fan blade in the direction of rotation. The surface of the blade facing the airflow is the suction surface, and the surface of the blade facing away from the airflow is the pressure surface. The leading edge and trailing edge of the axial flow fan blade are bent along the direction of rotation. The leading edge of the axial flow fan blade is provided with a reinforcing rib, which is connected to the root and extends along the edge of the blade. This device has a simple structure and solves the problem that cracks easily appear near the root of the leading edge of the axial flow fan blade at high speeds, resulting in a low product qualification rate. It also avoids the problems of high cost and high energy consumption caused by increasing the thickness of the blade as a whole. As can be seen from the above structure, the blades and hub of the above device are fixedly connected and the blades cannot be disassembled. Once the blades are worn, deformed or damaged, the entire impeller must be replaced. This not only increases maintenance costs, but may also affect the normal operation of the fan. In contrast, detachable blades can be partially adjusted or replaced without replacing the entire impeller, thereby improving maintenance efficiency. Therefore, a replaceable axial flow fan blade is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the problems mentioned in the background art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an enhanced axial flow fan blade to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: An enhanced axial flow fan blade includes a mounting hub. Mounting components are fixedly connected to the inner side of the mounting hub. A mounting base is fixedly connected to the other end of each mounting component. A blade body is fixedly connected to the other side of each mounting base. Each mounting component includes a snap-fit ​​frame disposed inside the mounting hub, extending through the hub. Snap-fit ​​holes are provided on both the upper and lower sides of the snap-fit ​​frame. A snap-fit ​​block is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting base, and the snap-fit ​​block interlocks with the snap-fit ​​frame. Circular grooves are provided on both the upper and lower sides of the snap-fit ​​block. A snap-fit ​​spring is fixedly connected inside each circular groove. A snap-fit ​​connector is fixedly connected to the other end of each snap-fit ​​spring, and the snap-fit ​​connector interlocks with the snap-fit ​​hole.

[0006] As a preferred technical solution, release springs are fixedly connected to both sides of the upper and lower sides of the snap-fit ​​frame on both sides of the snap-fit ​​hole, and a pressing plate is fixedly connected to the other end of each release spring. A release block is fixedly connected to the inner side of each pressing plate, and the release block is inserted into the snap-fit ​​hole.

[0007] As a preferred technical solution, a reinforcing rod is fixedly connected to the other end of each snap-fit ​​frame, and a central ring is fixedly connected to the other end of each reinforcing rod. A through hole is provided on the outer side of the central ring, and the through hole is inserted into the driving device.

[0008] As a preferred technical solution, a reinforcing plate is fixedly connected to the inner side of the mounting hub, and a snap-fit ​​groove is opened at the other end of the reinforcing plate. The snap-fit ​​groove is inserted into the center ring, and a fixing through hole is opened on both the upper and lower sides of the reinforcing plate.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution, one side of the mounting base is engaged with the outer side of the mounting hub, and a limiting block is fixedly connected to both sides of the mounting base on one side of the engaging block. A limiting groove is formed on both sides of the outer surface of the mounting hub on the engaging frame, and the limiting groove and the limiting block are engaged with each other.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution, both sides of the mounting hub are fixedly connected to a sealing plate, which covers the upper and lower sides of the mounting hub. The surface of the sealing plate is provided with mounting holes, which are connected to the drive device.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution, the outer surface of the sealing plate is provided with multiple mounting through holes, and mounting screws are inserted into the interior of each mounting through hole. The mounting screws pass through the mounting through holes and are threadedly connected to the mounting hub.

[0012] In summary, the present invention has the following main advantages: First, the present invention, through the installation components, allows for the following process: after the blade body is replaced, the new blade body is installed with the mounting hub by inserting the snap-fit ​​block into the snap-fit ​​frame. During insertion, the snap-fit ​​connector is squeezed into the inside of the circular groove. After the snap-fit ​​block is fully inserted into the snap-fit ​​frame, the position of the snap-fit ​​hole is aligned with the position of the circular groove. At this time, the snap-fit ​​connector will pop out of the circular groove under the action of the snap-fit ​​spring, so that the snap-fit ​​connector and the snap-fit ​​hole can be snapped together, thereby achieving the snap-fit ​​effect and thus enabling the installation of the blade body. Secondly, the aforementioned installation components simplify the blade installation process and significantly improve assembly efficiency. The spring-reset self-locking mechanism ensures a tight and reliable connection, effectively avoiding the risk of loosening. This balances installation convenience with structural stability. Furthermore, placing the installation components inside the mounting hub reduces eddies and turbulence caused by component obstruction, allowing the axial flow blades to guide airflow more smoothly, reducing energy loss, and thus significantly improving wind energy conversion efficiency. This ensures that the axial flow blades maintain a high-efficiency operating state throughout the operation. Attached Figure Description
