[0018] Several illustrative embodiments are briefly described below. As those skilled in the art will recognize, the described embodiments can be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit or scope of the present application. Accordingly, the drawings and descriptions are to be regarded as illustrative in nature, and not as restrictive.
[0019] 1 to 4 show the structure of a handheld fan according to one embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the handheld fan has: Fan case 100 and a first clamping plate (200) provided in the fan case (100) and rotating relative to the fan case (100); a second clamping plate 300 provided on the first clamping plate 200 and rotating relative to the first clamping plate 200, wherein when the angle between the first clamping plate 200 and the fan case 100 is 180°, one end of the second clamping plate 300 that is closest to the fan case 100 comes into contact with the fan case 100, and when the angle between the first clamping plate 200 and the fan case 100 is less than 180°, one end of the second clamping plate 300 that is closest to the fan case 100 comes into close contact with the first clamping plate 200; and a torsion spring 400 provided at the connection point between the first clamping plate 200 and the second clamping plate 300.
[0020] In this embodiment, the first clamping plate 200 and the second clamping plate 300 form a clip by installing the torsion spring 400. When the angle between the first clamping plate 200 and the fan case 100 is 180°, the second clamping plate 300 cooperates with the first clamping plate 200 to clamp the fan case 100. In this case, the first clamping plate 200 and the second clamping plate 300 function as a handle for the fan, making it easier to hold the fan case 100. When the angle between the first clamping plate 200 and the fan case 100 is less than 180°, the first clamping plate 200 cooperates with the second clamping plate 300 to clamp other objects, such as an umbrella or the edge of a desk, and the second clamping plate 300 can also be placed as a base. With the first clamping plate 200 and the second clamping plate 300 installed, when the angle between the first clamping plate 200 and the fan case 100 is 180°, the first clamping plate 200 and the second clamping plate 300 function as a handle for the fan. When the angle between the first clamping plate 200 and the fan case 100 is less than 180°, the first clamping plate 200 can cooperate with the second clamping plate 300 to clamp other objects, such as an umbrella or the edge of a table, and the second clamping plate 300 can also be used as a base, improving the functionality of the fan and making it easier to use in different situations. The second clamping plate 300 has a locking groove that fits an umbrella handle. In addition, a bolt is provided between the first clamping plate 200 and the fan case 100, and when force is applied to the first clamping plate 200 and the fan case 100, the angle between the first clamping plate 200 and the fan case 100 can be adjusted. When the force is stopped, the angle between the first clamping plate 200 and the fan case 100 is locked. After a certain period of use, the connection between the first clamping plate 200 and the fan case 100 can be tightened by tightening the bolt. A gear joint may also be provided between the first clamping plate 200 and the fan case 100.
[0021] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, in one embodiment, The fan case 100 has a recess 110 that fits the second clamping plate 300 .
[0022] In this embodiment, when the angle between the first clamping plate 200 and the fan case 100 is 180°, the end of the second clamping plate 300 closest to the fan case 100 is located within the recess 110, which ensures that the surface of the fan is smooth and improves aesthetics when the first clamping plate 200 and the second clamping plate 300 are used as a handle.
[0023] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, in one embodiment, a handheld fan includes: The fan case 100 further includes a fixing block 120 located in the recess 110 .
[0024] The second clamping plate 300 has a groove 310, and when the first clamping plate 200 and the fan case 100 form a 180° angle, one end of the second clamping plate 300 closest to the fan case 100 is located within the recess 110, and the fixed block 120 is located within the groove 310.
[0025] In this embodiment, when one end of the second clamping plate 300 is located in the recess 110, the fixed block 120 is located in the groove 310, and the edge of the second clamping plate 300 is located between the fixed block 120 and the fan case 100. In this way, the edge of the second clamping plate 300 is located in the recess 110, forming a shape that engages with the fan case 100, making it easy to position the second clamping plate 300.
[0026] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, in one embodiment, a handheld fan includes: The spacer 210 is further provided with a portion on the first clamping plate 200 and another portion on the second clamping plate 300 .
[0027] In this embodiment, the installation of the spacer 210 prevents the first clamping plate 200 and the second clamping plate 300 from directly contacting the object when clamping it, which would result in damage to the object.
[0028] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, in one embodiment, a handheld fan includes: The fan further includes a fan blade assembly disposed within the fan case.
[0029] The fan blade assembly 500 includes: a drive motor provided in the fan case 100; and fan blades that are provided within the fan case 100 and are driven to rotate by the drive motor.
[0030] The fan blade assembly 500 includes: a battery provided in the fan case 100 and connected to the drive motor; The fan case 100 further includes a switch 510 that is provided on the fan case 100 and controls the on / off of the battery.
[0031] The case further has a charging port 520 for charging the battery. In this embodiment, the battery is charged through a charging port 520 and is connected to a switch 510 and a drive motor through a control circuit, The circuitry of the battery, switch 510, and drive motor is the same as that of commercially available handheld fans, and all of these are conventional techniques. Charging the battery through charging port 520 is also a common practice for those skilled in the art, and the protection circuitry within the power supply is also a common practice for those skilled in the art.
[0032] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, in one embodiment, a handheld fan includes: The device further includes two connection blocks 600 provided on the first clamping plate 200 and the second clamping plate 300, respectively, and a rotation shaft is provided between the two connection blocks 600, and the torsion spring 400 is provided on the rotation shaft.
[0033] In this embodiment, two connection blocks 600 are provided on the first clamping plate 200 and the second clamping plate 300, respectively, and a torsion spring 400 is provided on the rotating shaft. When the angle between the first clamping plate 200 and the fan case 100 is less than 180°, the two connection blocks 600 cause the first clamping plate 200 and the second clamping plate 300 to form an "A"-shaped clip.
[0034] The functions of each module in each device in the embodiment of the present invention can be referred to the corresponding description in the above method, and the description will be omitted here.
