[0017] In an embodiment of the present utility model, as shown in the Fig.1 to 3, a stress-relieving axial flow blade is provided, which comprises a blade housing 1, a connecting part 2, and a mounting head 3. The blade housing 1, the connecting part 2, and the mounting head 3 are arranged in this order, with the connecting part 2 being arranged between the blade housing 1 and the mounting head 3 and fixedly connected to each of them. At both ends of the mounting head 3, a concave hole 21 is provided, which is designed in an arc shape and whose arcuate surface extends to the mounting head 3. The concave hole 21 serves to relieve stress, thereby reducing stress and increasing the service life of the blade according to this application. Inclined surfaces are formed on both sides of the connecting part 2, one end of the inclined surface extending to the side surface of the mounting head 3 and the other end extending to the side surface of the blade housing 1.The thickness of the connecting part 2 gradually decreases from the center of the mounting head 3 to both sides, making the structure of the mounting head 3 and the connecting part 2 more stable and the connection stronger. The stress-reducing axial fan blade proposed in this application has the following effects: 1. Stress distribution: The concavely cut concave hole 21 facilitates the uniform transmission and distribution of the load on the blade stem. This concave design more advantageously distributes the material stress during operation to avoid stress concentration and reduce stress as much as possible, thereby increasing the strength and maximum limiting speed of the blade and reducing fatigue and failures. 2.

[0020] In a further embodiment of the present utility model, the mounting head 3 comprises a mounting body 31 and a projection ring 32. The mounting body 31 is fixedly connected to the blade housing 1 and the projection ring 32, respectively. The width of the projection ring 32 is greater than that of the mounting body 31, and both the mounting body 31 and the projection ring 32 are cylindrical.

[0021] In a further embodiment of the present utility model, the length of the concave bore 21 is 2 to 50 mm, preferably 30 mm, the width is 5 to 80 mm, preferably 50 mm, and the depth is 5 to 100 mm, preferably 30 mm. The concave bore 21 serves to relieve stress, preventing stress concentrations in the blade housing 1 and thus fractures, thereby increasing the service life of the blade housing 1.

[0022] In a further embodiment of the present utility model, a limiting projection 4 which is polygonal in shape is fixedly attached to the outside of the projection ring 32.

This concave design more advantageously distributes the material stress during operation to avoid stress concentration and reduce stress as much as possible, thereby increasing the strength and maximum limiting speed of the blade and reducing fatigue and failures. 2. Weight reduction: The concavely cut concave hole 21 also contributes to the weight reduction of the entire blade, which reduces inertial forces and increases the operating efficiency of the fan. 3. Aesthetics and functionality: The concave hole 21 can also be chosen for aesthetic reasons.
