[0055] Hereinafter, the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the drawings, and the same or similar reference numerals throughout the drawings indicate the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are only examples and are intended to be used to interpret the present application, and cannot be understood as limiting the present application.

[0056] In the following disclosure, numerous different embodiments or examples are provided to realize different structures of the present application. In order to simplify the disclosure of the present application, the following describes certain example components and installations. Of course, they are merely examples and are not intended to limit the present application. It should be noted that the present application may repeatedly refer to numbers and / or letters in different examples. Such repetition is for the purpose of brevity and clarity and does not in itself indicate a relationship between the various embodiments and / or installations discussed. It should be noted that although the present application provides examples of various specific processes and materials, one skilled in the art may recognize the applicability of other processes and / or the use of other materials.

[0057] Hereinafter, a fan assembly 100 according to an embodiment of the first aspect of the present application will be described with reference to Side 1 to Figure 17. Hereinafter, the fan assembly 100 may be used in a vacuum cleaner, and the vacuum cleaner may be a handheld vacuum cleaner, and is not specifically limited herein.

[0058] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, a fan assembly 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a case 1, an impeller assembly 2, a first air guide member 3, and a driving member 7.

[0059] Specifically, at least a portion of the impeller assembly 2 is accommodated within the case 1. That is, the impeller assembly 2 can be completely accommodated within the case 1, and the case 1 can effectively protect the impeller assembly 2, thereby improving the anti-interference ability and stability of the impeller assembly 2. The impeller assembly 2 includes a plurality of impellers 20 arranged in series in the flow direction of the airflow of the fan assembly 100. That is, when the airflow passes through the fan assembly 100, it flows through the plurality of impellers 20 in sequence. In addition, when the airflow passes through the impellers 20, a boosting effect can be effectively obtained. As a result, when the airflow passes through the plurality of impellers 20, multiple boosting processes are completed, and the degree of vacuum inside the case 1 can be effectively improved by the plurality of impellers 20 at the same rotation speed of the impellers 20. That is, by increasing the pressure difference between the outside and the inside of the fan assembly 100, the air outside the fan assembly 100 can enter the inside of the case 1 at a higher speed, thereby improving the suction force of the fan assembly 100 and further improving the dust suction efficiency of the vacuum cleaner.

[0060] As shown in FIG. 3, the first air guide member 3 is suitable for guiding the exhaust air of the upstream impeller 20 to the downstream impeller 20. The upstream side and downstream side here refer to the positions of the first air guide member 3 in the flow direction of the airflow of the fan assembly 100. That is, the first air guide member 3 is located downstream of the airflow of the upstream impeller 20, and the downstream impeller 20 is located downstream of the airflow of the first air guide member 3. This allows the exhaust air of the upstream impeller 20 to be well adjusted by the first air guide member 3. For example, by adjusting the exhaust angle of the upstream impeller 20, the first air guide member 3 adjusts the exhaust air angle, etc., so that the exhaust air of the upstream impeller 20 can flow to the downstream impeller 20 along a certain direction, which effectively reduces airflow loss and is advantageous for improving the aerodynamic performance of the fan assembly 100.

[0061] Furthermore, the diameter of the first air guide member 3 becomes smaller in the direction from the upstream impeller 20 toward the lower impeller 20. That is, the diameter of one end of the first air guide member 3 close to the upstream impeller 20 is larger than the diameter of one end of the first air guide member 3 close to the downstream impeller 20. This makes it possible to effectively reduce the radial size of the first air guide member 3, thereby reducing the radial size of the fan assembly 100, reducing the radial size occupied by the fan assembly 100 in the vacuum cleaner, and reducing the weight of the first air guide member 3, which is advantageous for a lightweight design of the fan assembly 100.

[0062] 3, the driving member 7 can be used to drive the rotation of the impellers 20. That is, the driving member 7 is transmission-connected to all of the impellers 20. Thus, the rotation speed of the impellers 20 can be controlled by controlling the power of the driving member 7, thereby precisely adjusting the magnitude of the suction force of the fan assembly 100.

[0063] According to some embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figures 3 and 14, the multiple impellers 20 are arranged coaxially in the axial direction of the fan assembly 100. That is, the axes of the multiple impellers 20 are located on the same straight line, which can effectively reduce the space occupied by the impeller assembly 2 in the radial direction, which is favorable for reducing the radial size of the fan assembly 100, and which is favorable for realizing a lightweight design of the vacuum cleaner. In addition, the output shaft 71 of the driving member 7 and the multiple impellers 20 can be installed coaxially, and the output shaft 71 of the driving member 7 is simultaneously connected to the multiple impellers 20 in a transmission manner, which can reduce the number of driving members 7, save the space occupied by the driving member 7, and further reduce the size of the fan assembly 100, which is favorable for realizing a lightweight design of the vacuum cleaner, and has low cost investment.

[0064] Furthermore, when the multiple impellers 20 are fixedly connected to the output shaft 71 of the same driving member 7, and the rotation of the driving member 7 is the same, a high vacuum degree can be formed in the fan assembly 100 by the airflow boosting process by the multiple impellers 20, thereby improving the suction power of the fan assembly 100 and further improving the dust suction efficiency of the vacuum cleaner. Therefore, compared with the fans in the related art, in a motion mode with the same suction power, the power of the driving member 7 is lower, i.e., the rotation speed of the output shaft 71 is slower. This allows the noise caused by the rotation of the output shaft 71 to be well controlled, while at the same time reducing the power consumption of the fan assembly 100, which is favorable for improving the user experience of the vacuum cleaner.

[0065] In some embodiments of the present application, the impeller 20 has an impeller inlet 201 extending along the axial direction of the fan assembly 100 and an impeller outlet 202 located on the outer periphery of the impeller 20. That is, when the driving member 7 is driven, the airflow can enter the inside of the impeller 20 from the impeller inlet 201, that is, the airflow at the impeller inlet 201 flows along the axial direction of the fan assembly 100, and is discharged along the radial direction of the fan assembly 100 from the impeller outlet 202, that is, the impeller 20 can well adjust the axial intake to the radial exhaust.

[0066] 5 and 6, according to some embodiments of the present application, the impeller 20 includes a wheel cover 22, a wheel disk 23, and a number of blades 21. Specifically, an impeller inlet 201 is formed in the wheel cover 22, and the impeller inlet 201 can be opened along the axial direction of the impeller 20. The wheel disk 23 and the wheel cover 22 are disposed opposite to each other along the axial direction of the impeller 20 with a gap therebetween, and an impeller air passage 203 is defined between the wheel disk 23 and the wheel cover 22. An inner end of the impeller air passage 203 along the radial direction can communicate with the impeller inlet 201, and an impeller outlet 202 is formed at an outer end of the impeller air passage 203 along the radial direction, at which time the impeller air passage 203 is annular, and the airflow flows through the impeller air passage 203. 2. As it flows through the impeller 203, it is exhausted from the inside to the outside almost along the radial direction, and of course the specific exhaust direction is related to the shape of the blades 21. The multiple blades 21 are arranged at intervals in the air passage along the circumferential direction of the impeller inlet 201, and each blade 21 is in the shape of a curved arc relative to the radial direction of the impeller 20. Any two adjacent blades 21 in the circumferential direction are defined by the wheel cover 22 and the wheel disk 23 and a sub-impeller outlet 205, that is, the multiple sub-impeller outlets 205 together constitute the impeller outlet 202, and in this way the impeller 20 can exhaust air uniformly in all directions.

[0067] Furthermore, the first air guide member 3 is suitable for guiding the exhaust air from the upstream impeller outlet 202 to flow at least along the axial direction of the fan assembly 100 to the downstream impeller inlet 201. That is, the first air guide member 3 is suitable for adjusting the radial exhaust air from the upstream impeller 20 to an airflow at least a part of which flows along the axial direction. Here, the first air guide member 3 can guide the exhaust air from the upstream impeller outlet 202 to be adjusted entirely to an airflow flowing along the axial direction, or, after the exhaust air from the upstream impeller outlet 202 is adjusted by the first air guide member 3, it becomes an airflow part of which flows along the axial direction of the fan assembly 100. Furthermore, since the downstream impeller inlet 201 extends along the axial direction of the fan assembly 100, the airflow flowing along the axial direction of the fan assembly 100 adjusted by the first air guide member 3 can enter the downstream impeller inlet 201 more smoothly, and air field disturbance caused by a mismatch between the airflow direction and the direction of the impeller inlet 201 can be effectively avoided. As a result, gas flow losses can be effectively reduced, which is advantageous for improving the aerodynamic performance of the fan assembly 100.

[0068] 3, according to some embodiments of the present application, an air guide passage 301 is defined on the first air guide member 3 and the inner wall surface of the case 1, the air guide passage 301 is arc-shaped, and in the direction from the upstream impeller 20 toward the downstream impeller 20, the air guide passage 301 is offset toward the axial direction of the fan assembly 100. That is, when gas flows through the air guide passage 301 toward the downstream impeller 20, the angle between the gas flow direction and the axial direction of the fan assembly 100 gradually decreases, that is, the arc-shaped air guide passage 301 can effectively realize the angular deflection of the airflow, so that the airflow passing through the first air guide member 3 flows to the downstream impeller 20 in a certain direction. This allows the deflection angle of the air guide passage 301 to be controlled according to the air intake angle of the downstream impeller 20, so that the airflow passing through the first air guide member 3 can flow more smoothly to the downstream impeller 20, and air field disturbance caused by a mismatch between the airflow direction and the direction of the impeller inlet 201 can be effectively avoided. As a result, gas flow losses can be effectively reduced, which is advantageous for improving the aerodynamic performance of the fan assembly 100.

[0069] Here, an air inlet and an air outlet are formed at both ends of the air guide passage 301, the opening direction of the air inlet is parallel to the opening direction of the impeller outlet 202 of the upstream impeller 20, and the opening direction of the air outlet is parallel to the opening direction of the impeller inlet 201 of the downstream impeller 20, and the air guide passage 301 is arc-shaped, that is, the air inlet can open approximately along the radial direction of the first-stage impeller 20a, and the air outlet can open approximately along the axial direction of the second-stage impeller 20b, so that the air guide passage 301 can change the direction of the exhaust air from the first-stage impeller outlet 202a from the radial direction to the axial direction and transport it to the second-stage impeller 20b, and thus the airflow inside the fan assembly 100 can be made efficient and smooth.

[0070] According to some embodiments of the present application, the maximum diameter a of the first air guide member 3 and the diameter b of the upstream impeller 20 satisfy 1.05≦a / b≦1.2. That is, the ratio of the maximum diameter a of the first air guide member 3 and the diameter b of the upstream impeller 20 is controlled to 1.05 to 1.2. For example, the ratio of the maximum diameter a of the first air guide member 3 and the diameter b of the upstream impeller 20 may be 1.05, 1.1, 1.15, 1.2, etc., and is not specifically limited here. That is, the diameter of one end of the first air guide member 3 close to the upstream impeller 20 is larger than the diameter of the upstream impeller 20, that is, the outer peripheral wall of the first air guide member 3 protrudes from the outer peripheral wall of the upstream impeller 20. As a result, the portion of the first air guide member 3 that extends beyond the outer wall of the upstream impeller 20 can effectively receive the exhaust air from the upstream impeller 20, thereby ensuring the adjustment effect of the first air guide member 3 with respect to the airflow direction.

[0071] According to some embodiments of the present application, the minimum diameter c of the first air guide member 3 and the inner diameter d of the impeller inlet 201 of the downstream impeller 20 satisfy c=d. In other words, the diameter of one end of the first air guide member 3 close to the downstream impeller 20 is the same as the diameter of the impeller inlet 201 of the downstream impeller 20. This allows the one end of the first air guide member 3 close to the downstream impeller 20 to be aligned with the downstream impeller inlet 201, which is advantageous in reducing gas flow loss.

[0072] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 7 and 8, the first air guide member 3 includes a first air guide member main body 302 and a plurality of air guide ribs 303 arranged at intervals along the outer peripheral wall of the first air guide member main body 302, and one end of the air guide rib 303 remote from the first air guide member main body 302 abuts against the inner surface of the case 1, and an air guide passage 301 is defined between two adjacent air guide ribs 303, the first air guide member main body 302 and the inner surface of the case 1. As a result, by combining the first air guide member 3 and the case 1, multiple air guide passages 301 can be formed on the outer periphery of the first air guide member 3, and the exhaust air of the upstream impeller 20 can flow toward the downstream impeller 20 through the multiple air guide passages 301, ensuring the adjustment effect of the gas flow direction, while at the same time allowing the exhaust air at multiple positions in the radial direction of the upstream impeller 20 to pass through the air guide passages 301, and further flow to the downstream impeller 20 in a certain direction due to the guide of the air guide passages 301, thereby ensuring the guide efficiency of the first air guide member 3. In addition, since the first air guide member 3 has multiple exhaust positions in the circumferential direction, the exhaust air of the first air guide member 3 becomes more uniform, which is advantageous in ensuring the stability of the air field.

[0073] 8, the air guide rib 303 extends in an arc shape, and the deflection angle of the axial direction of the air guide rib 303 with respect to the fan assembly 100 becomes smaller in the direction from the upstream impeller 20 to the downstream impeller 20. As a result, when gas flows from the air guide passage 301 to the downstream impeller 20, the angle between the gas flow direction and the axial direction of the fan assembly 100 gradually decreases due to the guide of the air guide rib 303. In one specific example, one end of the air guide rib 303 far from the upstream impeller 20 extends along the axial direction of the fan assembly 100, and at least a part of the airflow passing through the air guide passage 301 can flow to the downstream impeller 20 along the axial direction of the fan assembly 100, and the air field disturbance caused by the exhaust turbulence of the upstream impeller 20 can be effectively avoided, and thus the gas flow loss can be effectively reduced, which is advantageous for improving the aerodynamic performance of the fan assembly 100.

[0074] According to some embodiments of the present application, the air guide rib 303 may include a first air guide rib (not shown) and a second air guide rib (not shown), the extension length of the first air guide rib is greater than the extension length of the second air guide rib, and the first air guide rib and the second air guide rib are alternately arranged at intervals along the outer circumferential wall of the first air guide member body 302. That is, in the circumferential direction of the first air guide member body 302, a second air guide rib is provided between each two adjacent first air guide ribs, and a first air guide rib is provided between each two adjacent second air guide ribs, and an air guide passage 301 is defined between the adjacent first air guide ribs and the second air guide rib. This provides an air guide effect for the airflow, while at the same time effectively reducing the weight of the first air guide member 3, saving the production materials of the first air guide member 3, which is favorable for realizing a lightweight design of the fan assembly 100, and has low cost investment.

[0075] Preferably, the extension directions of the first air guide rib and the second air guide rib are aligned, so that the airflow directions of the airflow passages between the first air guide rib and the second air guide rib are aligned, and the exhaust directions of the airflow from the air guide passage 301 are aligned, which is advantageous for avoiding losses due to turbulent airflow and improving the performance of the fan assembly 100.

[0076] Preferably, one end of the first air guide rib close to the impeller 20 on the upstream side and one end of the second air guide rib close to the impeller 20 on the upstream side are flush with each other. In other words, the air intakes 14 of the multiple air guide passages 301 are flush with each other, which ensures that the exhaust air from the upstream impeller 20 enters the multiple air guide passages 301 uniformly, which is advantageous in improving the stability of the gas flow.

[0077] The pitch between one end of the first air guide rib far from the upstream impeller 20 and the upstream impeller 20 is larger than the pitch between one end of the second air guide rib far from the upstream impeller 20 and the upstream impeller 20. The first air guide member 3 has an inverted tapered shape, and by making the extension length of the second air guide rib shorter than the extension length of the first air guide rib, the airflow between the first air guide rib and the second air guide rib can enter between the two adjacent first air guide ribs on the side far from the upstream impeller 20 closer to the air guide rib 303, and can be well matched to the inverted tapered first air guide member 3, and further the width of the exhaust port 15 of the air guide passage 301 can be maintained, and airflow loss due to the narrowing of the air guide passage 301 can be well avoided.

[0078] Preferably, the length f of the second wind guide rib and the length g of the first wind guide rib satisfy 0.3≦f / g≦0.7. That is, the ratio of the length of the second wind guide rib to the first wind guide rib is controlled to 0.3 to 0.7. For example, the ratio of the length of the second wind guide rib to the first wind guide rib may be 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, etc., and is not specifically limited here. If the ratio of the length of the second wind guide rib to the first wind guide rib is too small, the length of the second wind guide rib is too small, so the wind guide path 301 between the first wind guide rib and the second wind guide rib is too short, which is disadvantageous to the wind guide effect. If the ratio of the length of the second wind guide rib to the first wind guide rib is too large, the length of the second wind guide rib is too large, so the first wind guide rib and the second wind guide rib cannot be matched to the shape of the first wind guide member 3. Thus, by controlling the length ratio of the second air guide rib to the first air guide rib to be 0.3 to 0.7, the gas guide effect can be ensured and airflow loss due to narrowing of air guide passage 301 can be effectively avoided.

[0079] Preferably, the air guide rib 303 has a first extension portion 306 close to the upstream impeller 20, a second extension portion 307 close to the downstream impeller 20, and a connection portion 308 connecting the first extension portion 306 and the second extension portion 307, and the thicknesses of the first extension portion 306 and the second extension portion 307 become thinner in the direction extending away from the connection portion 308. That is, in the extension direction of the air guide rib 303, the thicknesses of both ends are smaller than the thickness at the center position of the first air guide member 3. As a result, when the exhaust air of the upstream impeller 20 flows into the air guide passage 301, the thickness of one end of the first extension portion 306 far from the connection portion 308 is small, and the gas flow resistance can be reduced well, which is advantageous for reducing gas flow loss.

[0080] Furthermore, since the thickness of the second extension portion 307 in the direction away from the connection portion 308 is small, the pitch between two adjacent air guide ribs 303 increases in the direction away from the upstream impeller 20, thereby effectively solving the problem of the air guide passage 301 gradually narrowing due to the first air guide member main body 302 having an inverted tapered shape, and effectively reducing airflow loss.

[0081] Preferably, a stopper outer protrusion 309 is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the first air guide member body 302, and an anti-rotation groove 16 is formed on the inner surface of the case 1 to match the stopper outer protrusion 309. That is, by combining the stopper outer protrusion 309 with the anti-rotation groove 16, i.e. by placing the stopper outer protrusion 309 in the anti-rotation groove 16, the first air guide member 3 is fixed to the case 1, preventing the first air guide member 3 from rotating relative to the case 1, and ensuring the air guide effect of the first air guide member 3.

[0082] 8, a plurality of stopper outer protrusions 309 are provided in the anti-rotation groove 16, and the plurality of stopper outer protrusions 309 are provided at intervals along the outer peripheral wall of the first air guide member body 302. This can satisfactorily improve the fixing effect of the case 1 to the first air guide member 3, and further ensure the air guide effect of the first air guide member 3. In one specific example, the stopper outer protrusions 309 extend along the axial direction of the fan assembly 100. This allows the stopper outer protrusions 309 to be inserted into the anti-rotation groove 16 along the axial direction of the fan assembly 100, which is advantageous in reducing the difficulty of assembling the first air guide member 3.

[0083] Preferably, at least a part of the stopper outer protrusion 309 is provided on the air guide rib 303. This allows the air guide rib 303 and the stopper outer protrusion 309 to share a partial structure, which effectively saves on material input and is advantageous for reducing the weight of the first air guide member 3. In addition, this effectively reduces the resistance of the stopper outer protrusion 309 to the airflow in the air guide passage 301, thereby reducing airflow loss and being advantageous for improving the performance of the fan assembly 100.

[0084] Here, the air guide rib 303 is an integral structure, that is, the first air guide member body 302, the air guide rib 303 and the stopper outer protrusion 309 can be processed by integral molding. The integrally molded structure not only ensures the structure and performance stability of the first air guide member body 302, the air guide rib 303 and the stopper outer protrusion 309, but also is easy to mold and simple to manufacture, and can eliminate unnecessary assembly members and connection processes. This greatly improves the assembly efficiency of the first air guide member body 302, the air guide rib 303 and the stopper outer protrusion 309, and improves the connection reliability of the first air guide member body 302, the air guide rib 303 and the stopper outer protrusion 309. Furthermore, the overall strength and stability of the integrally molded structure is high, assembly is easier, and the service life is longer.

[0085] 3 and 14, according to some embodiments of the present application, a storage chamber 13 is provided in a case 1, an air intake port 14 and an air exhaust port 15 are formed in the case 1 and communicate with the storage chamber 13, an upstream impeller 20 is provided adjacent to the air intake port 14, a downstream impeller 20 is provided adjacent to the air exhaust port 15, the air intake port 14 is communicated with an impeller inlet 201 of the upstream impeller 20, and an impeller outlet 202 of the downstream impeller 20 is communicated with the air exhaust port 15. In other words, gas outside the fan assembly 100 enters the storage chamber 13 from the air intake port 14, is pressurized by the multiple impellers 20 in sequence, and is then discharged from the air exhaust port 15. This can effectively improve the degree of vacuum within the storage chamber 13, i.e., increase the pressure difference between the outside and inside of the fan assembly 100, allowing the air outside the fan assembly 100 to enter the inside of the case 1 at a higher speed, thereby improving the suction power of the fan assembly 100 and further improving the dust collection efficiency of the vacuum cleaner.

[0086] Preferably, the cavity wall of the storage chamber 13 and the inner peripheral wall of the impeller inlet 201 of the downstream impeller 20 have a smooth transition. That is, the inner diameter of the cavity wall of the storage chamber 13 is the same as the inner diameter of the impeller inlet 201 of the downstream impeller 20, so that the airflow can flow into the impeller inlet 201 more stably, and gas turbulence can be effectively avoided, which is favorable for reducing airflow loss.

[0087] 3 and 4, according to some embodiments of the present application, the fan assembly 100 further includes a sealing member 8, which is filled between the outer periphery of the impeller inlet 201 and the cavity wall of the storage chamber 13. This can effectively prevent the airflow from escaping through the gap between the impeller inlet 201 and the cavity wall of the storage chamber 13, thereby reducing the airflow loss and favoring the improvement of the aerodynamic performance of the fan assembly 100.

[0088] In addition, during the assembly process of the impeller 20, the sealing member 8 can effectively prevent damage caused by direct collision between the impeller 20 and the case 1, and during the operation process of the fan assembly 100, the sealing member 8 can effectively prevent resonance noise caused by the impeller 20 coming into contact with the case 1, thereby improving the structural stability of the entire fan assembly 100 and effectively reducing resonance noise, thereby improving the quietness of the fan assembly 100.

[0089] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 3 and 14, the multiple impellers 20 include at least a single-stage impeller 20a and a two-stage impeller 20b, the single-stage impeller 20a is arranged adjacent to the air intake 14, the first air guide member 3 is arranged downstream of the single-stage impeller 20a, the two-stage impeller 20b is arranged downstream of the first air guide member 3, and the drive member 7 is arranged downstream of the two-stage impeller 20b.

[0090] That is, in the flow direction of the airflow of the fan assembly 100, the airflow is first boosted by the first-stage impeller 20a, and the boosted airflow of the first-stage impeller 20a is guided to the second-stage impeller 20b by the first air guide member 3, and is boosted again under the action of the second-stage impeller 20b, and is discharged from the fan assembly 100 through the impeller outlet 202 and the exhaust port 15. That is, the airflow completes two boosts in the fan assembly 100, and the vacuum degree in the receiving chamber 13 can be improved well, that is, by increasing the pressure difference between the outside and the inside of the fan assembly 100, the air outside the fan assembly 100 can enter the inside of the case 1 at a higher speed, thereby improving the suction power of the fan assembly 100 and further improving the dust suction efficiency of the vacuum cleaner. In one specific example, the output shaft 71 of the driving member 7 in the present application rotates 60,000 to 100,000 revolutions, and the suction power of the vacuum cleaner exceeds the suction power of a fan of 120,000 to 180,000 revolutions in the related art.

[0091] In some embodiments, the number of blades 21 of the first-stage impeller 20a is N1, the second-stage impeller 20b is provided downstream of the first air guide member 3, the number of blades 21 of the second-stage impeller 20b is N2, and the number of air guide ribs 303 of the first air guide member 3 is N3, where N3>N1 and N3>N2. That is, the number of air guide ribs 303 of the first air guide member 3 is greater than the number of blades 21 of the adjacent impeller 20. Thus, the number of blades 21 of the first air guide member 3 is greater than the number of blades 21 of the adjacent impeller 20 in the circumferential direction. The flow area of ​​the sub-air guide passage 301 defined by two adjacent air guide ribs 303 is smaller than the flow area of ​​the sub-impeller air guide passage 203 defined by two circumferentially adjacent blades 21, thereby increasing the flow speed at which the exhaust air from the impeller outlet 202 of the first stage impeller 20a flows through the sub-air guide passage 301 of the first air guide member 3, which is advantageous for improving the flow efficiency of the airflow between the first stage impeller 20a and the second stage impeller 20b.

[0092] Furthermore, the number N1 of the blades 21 of the first-stage impeller 20a and the number N2 of the blades 21 of the two-stage impeller 20b are N1>N2. In this manner, the first-stage impeller 20a is closer to the air intake port 14 of the case 1 in the flow direction of the airflow, and the number of the blades 21 of the first-stage impeller 20a is greater than the number of the blades 21 of the two-stage impeller 20b, which is advantageous for improving the suction force of the fan assembly 100, and the number of the blades 21 of the two-stage impeller 20b is relatively small, and the flow area of ​​the two-stage sub-impeller outlet 205 is larger, which is advantageous for reducing the wind resistance of the airflow inside the case 1 and improves the exhaust efficiency.

[0093] In some embodiments, the outer diameter of the first stage impeller 20a is D11, the axial pitch of the first stage impeller 20a and the second stage impeller 20b along the fan assembly 100 is L1, and the ratio of D11 to L1 is in the range of 1.27≦D11 / L1≦1.87, for example, the ratio of D11 to L1 may be 1.27, 1.37, 1.47, 1.67, or 1.87. Thus, if the ratio of D11 to L1 is too small, for example less than 1.27, the first stage impeller 20a and the second stage impeller 20b may be in the range of 1.27≦D11 / L1≦1.87. Not only can it be avoided that the efficiency of the airflow passing through the air guide passage is affected when the space for installing the first air guide member 3 between the first impeller 20a and the second stage impeller 20b is too small, but it can also be avoided that the ratio of D11 to L1 is too large, for example greater than 1.87, when the distance between the first stage impeller 20a and the second stage impeller 20b is too large, which increases the wind resistance when the airflow passes through the air guide passage 301 and causes too much air loss, thereby reducing the suction force of the fan assembly 100.

[0094] Furthermore, the range of values ​​for the outer diameter D11 of the first-stage impeller 20a is 37 mm≦D11≦43 mm. For example, the outer diameter D11 of the first-stage impeller 20a may be 37 mm, 38 mm, 40 mm, 41 mm, or 43 mm. In this way, if the outer diameter of the first-stage impeller 20a is too large, for example greater than 43 mm, the radial size of the entire fan assembly 100 will be too large and the space it occupies will be large, which is disadvantageous for the development of compact and portable vacuum cleaners. Also, if the outer diameter of the first-stage impeller 20a is too small, for example smaller than 37 mm, the wind force generated by the first-stage impeller 20a will be too small, which will result in the suction force of the vacuum cleaner being too small.

[0095] According to some embodiments of the present application, the outer diameter of the two-stage impeller 20b is D21, the pitch of the first-stage impeller 20a and the second-stage impeller 20b along the axial direction of the fan assembly 100 is L1, and the ratio of D21 to L1 has a value range of 1.27≦D21 / L1≦1.87, for example, the ratio of D21 to L1 may be 1.27, 1.37, 1.47, 1.67, or 1.87. Thus, if the ratio of D21 to L1 is too small, for example less than 1.27, the first-stage impeller 20 Not only can it be avoided that the efficiency of the airflow passing through the air guide passage is affected when the space for installing the first air guide member 3 between the first stage impeller 20a and the second stage impeller 20b is too small, but also it can be avoided that the ratio of D21 to L1 is too large, for example greater than 1.87, when the distance between the first stage impeller 20a and the second stage impeller 20b is too large, which increases the wind resistance when the airflow passes through the air guide passage 301 and causes too much air loss, thereby reducing the suction force of the fan assembly 100.

[0096] Furthermore, the range of values ​​for the outer diameter D21 of the two-stage impeller 20b is 37 mm≦D21≦43 mm. For example, the outer diameter D21 of the two-stage impeller 20b may be 37 mm, 38 mm, 40 mm, 41 mm, or 43 mm. In this way, if the outer diameter of the two-stage impeller 20b is too large, for example greater than 43 mm, the radial size of the entire fan assembly 100 will be too large and the space it occupies will be large, which is disadvantageous to the development of compact and portable vacuum cleaners. Also, if the outer diameter of the two-stage impeller 20b is too small, for example smaller than 37 mm, the wind force generated by the two-stage impeller 20b will be too small, which will result in the suction force of the vacuum cleaner being too small.

[0097] In some embodiments, the pitch of the first air guide member 3 and the two-stage impeller 20b along the axial direction of the fan assembly 100 is L2, the pitch of the first stage impeller 20a and the two-stage impeller 20b along the axial direction of the fan assembly 100 is L1, and the value range of the ratio of L2 to L1 is 0.13≦L2 / L1≦0.26, for example, the ratio of L2 to L1 may be 0.13, 0.18, 0.2, 0.25 or 0.26. Thus, if the ratio of L2 to L1 is too small, for example less than 0.13, the pitch of the first air guide member 3 and the two-stage impeller 20b along the axial direction of the fan assembly 100 may be too small. Not only can it be avoided that if the axial pitch is too small, the airflow in the air guide passage 301 has difficulty entering the impeller inlet 201 of the two-stage impeller 20b, resulting in a decrease in the airflow circulation efficiency, but it can also be avoided that if the ratio of L2 to L1 is too large, for example greater than 0.26, the axial pitch of the fan assembly 100 of the first air guide member 3 and the two-stage impeller 20b becomes too large, thereby weakening the air guide effect of the first air guide member 3, causing the air to form a vortex between the first air guide member 3 and the two-stage impeller 20b, resulting in poor airflow circulation and further increasing airflow loss.

[0098] According to some embodiments of the present application, in the flow direction of the airflow, the cross-sectional area of ​​the impeller outlet 202 of the impeller 20 located upstream is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the impeller outlet 202 of the impeller 20 located downstream, that is, the cross-sectional area of ​​the impeller outlet 202 of the first-stage impeller 20a is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the impeller outlet 202 of the second-stage impeller 20b. For example, when the outer diameter of the first-stage impeller 20a and the outer diameter of the second-stage impeller 20b are the same as each other, the cross-sectional area of ​​the first-stage impeller 20a is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the impeller outlet 202 of the first-stage impeller 20a. By making the width of the impeller outlet 202 along the axial direction of the impeller 20 larger than the width of the impeller outlet 202 along the axial direction of the impeller 20 of the two-stage impeller 20b, the cross-sectional area of ​​the impeller outlet 202 of the first stage impeller 20a becomes larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the impeller outlet 202 of the two-stage impeller 20b. Thus, the flow speed of the airflow passing through the first stage impeller 20a and the second stage impeller 20b in sequence increases significantly, thereby increasing the wind force and improving the suction power of the vacuum cleaner.

[0099] Furthermore, the outer diameter of the first stage impeller 20a is D11, and the outer diameter of the second stage impeller 20b is D21, where D11=D21, that is, the radial sizes of the first stage impeller 20a and the second stage impeller 20b are the same; thus, the diameters at different positions along the axial direction of the entire structure of the fan assembly 100 can all be equal, which is advantageous to miniaturizing the entire structure of the fan assembly 100 while ensuring that the fan assembly 100 can provide sufficient suction force.

[0100] In some embodiments, the inner diameter of the first stage impeller 20a is D12, and D12 ranges from 18 mm≦D12≦21 mm. For example, the inner diameter of the first stage impeller 20a may be 18 mm, 19 mm, 20 mm, or 21 mm. The inner diameter of the second stage impeller 20b is D22, and D22 ranges from 18 mm≦D21≦21 mm. For example, the inner diameter of the second stage impeller 20b may be 18 mm, 19 mm, 20 mm, or 21 mm, and D12≧D22. Here, the inner diameter of the first stage impeller 20a being D12 means that the inner diameter of the impeller inlet 201 of the first stage impeller 20a is D12. The inner diameter of the second stage impeller 20b being D22 means that the inner diameter of the impeller inlet 201 of the second stage impeller 20b is D22. This means that the inner diameter of the impeller inlet 201 is D22, and the opening area of ​​the impeller inlet 201 of the first-stage impeller 20a is larger than that of the impeller inlet 201 of the two-stage impeller 20b. Since the first-stage impeller 20a is closer to the air intake port 14 of the case 1, making the opening area of ​​the impeller inlet 201 of the first-stage impeller 20a larger than that of the impeller inlet 201 of the two-stage impeller 20b is not only advantageous to increasing the amount of air intake of the impeller assembly 2, but also advantageous to increasing the amount of air intake of the impeller assembly 2 when the amount of air flowing through the first-stage impeller 20a and the two-stage impeller 20b is constant, because the opening area of ​​the impeller inlet 201 of the two-stage impeller 20b is smaller, the flow speed of the air flowing through the two-stage impeller 20b is faster, which is further advantageous to improving the suction power of the vacuum cleaner. Furthermore, by setting the inner diameters of the first stage impeller 20a and the second stage impeller 20b to the range of 18 mm to 21 mm, it is advantageous to realize a compact overall structure of the fan assembly 100 in the radial direction.

[0101] According to some embodiments of the present application, the width of the first stage impeller outlet 202a of the first stage impeller 20a is B11, and the width of the second stage impeller outlet 202b of the second stage impeller 20b is B21, where B11>B21, thus the flow speed of the air flowing through the first stage impeller 20a and the second stage impeller 20b in sequence is significantly increased, thereby increasing the wind force and improving the suction power of the vacuum cleaner. Note that the width of the impeller outlet 202 here refers to the width of the impeller outlet 202 along the axial direction of the impeller 20, that is, the pitch of the outer edge of the wheel cover 22 and the outer edge of the wheel disk 23 in the axial direction of the impeller 20.

[0102] Furthermore, the width B11 of the first-stage impeller outlet 202a and the width B21 of the two-stage impeller outlet 202b satisfy B21=a1*B11, where 0.6≦a1≦0.9, for example, the value of a1 can be 0.6, 0.7, 0.8 or 0.9. In this way, if the value of a1 is too small, for example less than 0.6, it is possible to prevent the width of the two-stage impeller outlet 202b from being too small, which makes it difficult for the airflow to be discharged when passing through the two-stage impeller outlet 202b, but it is also possible to prevent the value of a1 from being too large, for example greater than 0.9, which makes the width of the two-stage impeller outlet 202b too large, which does not meet the requirement for increasing the airflow velocity. As described above, by making the value of a1 0.6≦a≦0.9, it is possible to better meet the demand for airflow circulation efficiency and ensure sufficient suction power of the vacuum cleaner.

[0103] Furthermore, an air passage inlet 204 is formed at the radial inner end of the impeller air passage 203, and the width of the first-stage air passage inlet of the first-stage impeller 20a is B12, and the width of the second-stage air passage inlet of the second-stage impeller 20b is B22, where B12>B22. In this way, the flow speed of the air flowing through the first-stage impeller 20a and the second-stage impeller 20b in sequence is greatly increased, thereby increasing the wind force and improving the suction power of the vacuum cleaner.

[0104] In some embodiments, the width B12 of the first-stage air duct inlet and the width B22 of the second-stage air duct inlet satisfy B22=c1*B12, where 0.8≦c1<1. For example, the value of c1 may be 0.8 or 0.9, etc. In this way, it is possible to prevent the value of c1 being too small, for example less than 0.8, from causing the flow area of ​​the air duct of the two-stage impeller 20b to be too small and the airflow not being smooth; it is also possible to prevent the value of c1 being too large, for example greater than 1, from causing the flow area of ​​the air duct of the two-stage impeller 20b to be too large and the two-stage impeller 20b not having a significant effect on increasing the airflow speed or not being able to increase the airflow speed.

[0105] According to some embodiments of the present application, the number of blades 21 of each impeller 20 is in the range of 7≦N≦13, for example, the number of blades 21 of each impeller 20 may be 7, 8, 10, 12 or 13. In this way, when the vacuum cleaner is a handheld vacuum cleaner, the volume of the fan assembly 100 of the handheld vacuum cleaner is small, i.e., the radial size of the impeller 20 is relatively small, so by making the number of blades 21 of the impeller 20 7-13, it is possible to prevent the driving effect of the impeller 20 on the airflow from being reduced when the number of blades 21 is too small, for example less than 7, but also to avoid the high airflow resistance and high noise caused when the number of blades 21 is too large, for example more than 13.

[0106] In some embodiments, the number of blades 21 of the multiple impellers 20 is reduced in the airflow direction, that is, the number of the two-stage impeller 20b is smaller than the number of the blades 21 of the single-stage impeller 20a, thus gradually reducing the air resistance of the air flow path inside the case 1, which is beneficial for improving the exhaust efficiency and also beneficial for improving the dust collection efficiency of the vacuum cleaner.

[0107] Furthermore, the number of blades 21 of the single-stage impeller 20a is N1, and the value range of N1 is 8 ≤ N1 ≤ 12. For example, the value of the number of blades 21 of the single-stage impeller 20a, N1, may be 8, 9, 10, 11, or 12. The number of blades 21 of the two-stage impeller 20b is N2, and the value range of N2 is 7 ≤ N2 ≤ 11. For example, the value of the number of blades 21 of the two-stage impeller 20b, N2, may be 7, 8, 9, 10, or 12. And N1 and N2 satisfy N2 < N1. In this way, the air resistance of the air flow path inside Case 1 can be gradually reduced, which is beneficial to improving the exhaust efficiency, and further beneficial to improving the dust suction efficiency of the vacuum cleaner.

[0108] According to some embodiments of the present application, the single-stage impeller 20a and the two-stage impeller 20b are located on the same side along the axial direction of the motor assembly. In this way, the pitch between the single-stage impeller 20a and the two-stage impeller 20b can be shortened, thereby shortening the length of the air flow path and helping to reduce the wind force loss.

[0109] In some embodiments, the pitch along the axial direction of the fan assembly 100 of the single-stage impeller 20a and the two-stage impeller 20b is L1, and the width of the single-stage impeller outlet 202a of the single-stage impeller 20a is B11. B11 and L1 satisfy 0.14 ≤ B11 / L1 ≤ 0.17. For example, the value of B11 / L1 may be 0.14, 0.15, 0.16, or 0.17. In this way, when B11 / L1 is too small, the width of the single-stage impeller outlet 202a is too small, and the wind resistance at the single-stage impeller outlet 202a is too large, and it is possible to avoid not only a large air volume loss, but also when B11 / L1 is too large, for example, greater than 0.17, the axial length of the fan assembly 100 becomes long, which is disadvantageous to miniaturization.

[0110] Furthermore, the pitch of the first stage impeller 20a and the two stage impeller 20b along the axial direction of the fan assembly 100 is L1, and the width of the two stage impeller outlet 202b of the two stage impeller 20b is B21, where B21 and L1 satisfy 0.14≦B21 / L1≦0.17, for example, the value of B21 / L1 may be 0.14, 0.15, 0.16 or 0.17. In this way, it is possible to avoid not only a situation in which B21 / L1 is too small, resulting in a too small width of the two stage impeller outlet 202b, which causes the wind resistance at the two stage impeller outlet 202b to be too large and increases the air volume loss, but also a situation in which B21 / L1 is too large, for example greater than 0.17, which causes the axial length of the fan assembly 100 to be long, which is disadvantageous to miniaturization.

[0111] Furthermore, a plurality of impellers 20 are provided in the case 1, and the ratio of the diameter of the position where the inner wall of the case 1 and the wheel disk 23 of each impeller 20 face each other in the radial direction to the outer diameter of the corresponding wheel disk 23 is in the range of 1.25-1.43. That is, the ratio of the diameter of the position where the inner wall of the case 1 and the wheel disk 23 of the first-stage impeller 20a face each other in the radial direction to the outer diameter of the wheel disk 23 of the first-stage impeller 20a is in the range of 1.25-1.43. For example, the ratio of the diameter of the position where the inner wall of the case 1 and the wheel disk 23 of the first-stage impeller 20a face each other in the radial direction to the outer diameter of the wheel disk 23 of the first-stage impeller 20a may be 1.25, 1.3, 1.35, 1.4 or 1.43. Similarly, the ratio of the diameter of the position where the inner wall of the case 1 and the wheel disk 23 of the second-stage impeller 20b face each other in the radial direction to the outer diameter of the wheel disk 23 of the first-stage impeller 20a may be 1.25, 1.3, 1.35, 1.4 or 1.43. The ratio of the diameter of the radially opposing position of the disk 23 to the outer diameter of the wheel disk 23 of the two-stage impeller 20b is in the range of 1.25-1.43. For example, the ratio of the diameter of the radially opposing position of the inner wall of the case 1 and the wheel disk 23 of the two-stage impeller 20b to the outer diameter of the wheel disk 23 of the two-stage impeller 20 may be 1.25, 1.3, 1.35, 1.4 or 1.43. In this way, it is possible to not only avoid a situation where the pitch between each wheel disk 23 and the inner wall of the case 1 is too small, which results in large wind resistance and increased air volume loss, but also to avoid a situation where the pitch between each wheel disk 23 and the inner wall of the case 1 is too large, which results in an increase in the radial size of the fan assembly 100, which is disadvantageous to the miniaturization of the fan assembly 100.

[0112] According to some embodiments of the present application, the impeller outlet 202 includes a plurality of sub-impeller outlets spaced apart along the circumferential direction of the impeller 20, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the sub-impeller outlet of the upstream impeller 20 is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the sub-impeller outlet of the downstream impeller 20; that is, the impeller outlet 202 of each impeller 20 can be composed of a plurality of sub-impeller outlets spaced apart along the circumferential direction of the impeller 20, and each sub-impeller outlet is defined by two adjacent blades 21 and the wheel disk 23, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the first-stage sub-impeller outlet of the first-stage impeller 20a is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the second-stage sub-impeller outlet of the second-stage impeller 20b; thus, the overall layout of the fan assembly 100 is favorable for increasing the wind speed, and the suction power of the vacuum cleaner is stronger.

[0113] 11 and 15, according to some embodiments of the present application, the fan assembly 100 may further include a second air guide member 4. The second air guide member 4 is provided between the first air guide member 3 and the impeller 20 located upstream of the first air guide member 3, and guides the exhaust air from the impeller outlet 202 of the upstream impeller 20 to the air guide passage 301. In other words, the second air guide member 4 is provided between the first air guide member 3 and the first-stage impeller 20a, and the second air guide member 4 can guide the exhaust air from the first-stage impeller outlet 202a to the air guide passage 301 defined by the first air guide member 3 and the inner wall of the case 1. Thus, the installation of the second air guide member 4 is advantageous to reduce the wind resistance between the first-stage impeller outlet 202a and the air guide passage 301, reducing wind loss and improving the air flow efficiency of the fan assembly 100.

[0114] According to some embodiments of the present application, the second air guide member 4 can be configured as an annular member, and the second air guide member 4 can be fitted onto the outside of the upstream impeller 20, that is, the second air guide member 4 can be fitted onto the outside of the first-stage impeller 20a. For example, as shown in FIG. 15, a second air guide ring is formed on the second air guide member 4, and the second air guide ring is fitted onto the outer periphery of the first-stage impeller outlet 202a to guide the exhaust air from the first-stage impeller outlet 202a to the air guide passage 301. In this way, the second air guide member 4 can guide the exhaust air at any position in the circumferential direction of the first-stage impeller outlet 202a, and at the same time has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture.

[0115] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 11, a radially annular micro gap is formed between the second air guide member 4 and the upstream impeller 20, that is, in the radial direction of the impeller 20, a radially annular micro gap is formed between the second air guide member 4 and the first stage impeller 20a, with a gap therebetween. In this way, it is possible to avoid interference between the second air guide member 4 and the first stage impeller 20a, and at the same time, it is convenient for assembly.

[0116] According to some embodiments of the present application, the first air guide member 3 has an attachment surface 318, which is a surface of the first air guide member 3 close to the impeller 20 on the upstream side, and the second air guide member 4 is attached to the attachment surface 318. For example, as shown in FIG. 1, the diameter of the attachment surface 318 is larger than the diameter of the first stage impeller 20a, so that the radial portion of the attachment surface 318 exceeding the impeller 20 is formed as an attachment space, and the second air guide member 4 can be attached to the attachment space of the attachment surface 318. In this way, the attachment of the second air guide member 4 is more stable, which is advantageous to improving the space utilization rate of the fan assembly 100, and at the same time, it is convenient for the second air guide member 4 to guide the exhaust air from the first stage impeller outlet 202a.

[0117] Furthermore, the second air guide member 4 includes a second air guide member main body 41 and a second air guide member mounting portion 42, wherein the second air guide member mounting portion 42 is provided on the second air guide member main body 41, a first air guide member mounting portion 319 is formed on the mounting surface 318, and the second air guide member mounting portion 42 is detachably connected to the first air guide member mounting portion 319, thus making it convenient to attach and detach the second air guide member 4 and the first air guide member 3, for example, the first air guide member mounting portion 319 and the second air guide member mounting portion 42 can be inserted or fitted into each other, of course, the specific connection method between the first air guide member mounting portion 319 and the second air guide member mounting portion 42 is not limited here, and the connection method between the first air guide member mounting portion 319 and the second air guide member mounting portion 42 can be reasonably selected according to actual needs.

[0118] Furthermore, referring to FIG. 11, the first air guide member mounting portion 319 is configured as a first mounting groove, and the second air guide member mounting portion 42 is configured as a second mounting protrusion. For example, the second air guide member mounting portion 42 can be formed by at least a portion of a protrusion along the radial direction toward one side surface of the first air guide member 3 of the second air guide member body 41, and the second mounting protrusion can be inserted into the first mounting groove. In this way, the connection between the first air guide member 3 and the second air guide member 4 is more stable and at the same time, it is convenient to remove. Of course, the present application is not limited thereto, and the first air guide member mounting portion 319 may be configured as a first mounting protrusion, and the second air guide member mounting portion 42 may be configured as a second mounting groove.

[0119] According to some embodiments of the present application, the second air guide member 4 includes a second air guide member body 41. The second air guide member body 41 has a second air guide member body air guide surface 411 and a second air guide member body abutment surface 412, the second air guide member body abutment surface 412 is fitted and abuts against the mounting surface 318, the second air guide member body air guide surface 411 is used to guide the exhaust air of the first stage impeller outlet 202a to the air guide passage 301, for example, as shown in Fig. 11, the second air guide member body abutment surface 412 and the mounting surface 318 face each other along the axial direction of the first stage impeller 20a, and at the same time, the second air guide member body abutment surface 412 and the second air guide member mounting portion 42 are disposed radially inward and outward. and the second air guide member main body abutment surface 412 is located radially inside the second air guide member mounting portion 42, the second air guide member main body abutment surface 412 and the second air guide member mounting portion 42 have a stepped structure, the second air guide member main body air guide surface 411 faces the case 1, and the second air guide member main body air guide surface 411 is an arc surface. In this way, the second air guide member main body abutment surface 412 helps to stably combine the second air guide member 4 and the first air guide member 3, and the second air guide member main body air guide surface 411 realizes air guidance while reducing wind resistance and reducing air volume loss.

[0120] Furthermore, the impeller outlet 202 of the upstream impeller 20 has a lower edge of the impeller outlet 202, the inner peripheral edge of the second air guide member main body air guide surface 411 extends to a position adjacent to the lower edge of the impeller outlet 202, and the outer peripheral edge of the second air guide member main body air guide surface 411 extends to the joint between the mounting surface 318 of the first air guide member 3 and the outer peripheral surface of the first air guide member 3. In other words, the inner peripheral edge of the second air guide member main body air guide surface 411 extends to a position adjacent to the edge of the wheel disk 23 of the first impeller 20a and extends to the joint between the outer peripheral edge of the second air guide member main body air guide surface 411 and the outer peripheral surface of the first air guide member 3. In this way, the second air guide member main body air guide surface 411 can better guide the exhaust air from the first impeller outlet 202a into the air guide passage 301, reducing air volume loss.

[0121] Furthermore, there is a smooth transition between the second air guide member main body air guide surface 411 and the outer peripheral surface of the first air guide member 3, for example, the second air guide member main body air guide surface 411 can be tangent to the outer peripheral surface of the second air guide member 4, thereby further reducing the wind resistance at the connection between the second air guide member main body air guide surface 411 and the outer peripheral surface of the second air guide member 4, reducing the air volume loss and improving the exhaust efficiency.

[0122] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to FIG. 11, an upstream air guide surface corresponding to the upstream impeller 20 is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the case 1, and the upstream air guide surface corresponds to the second air guide member main body air guide surface 411, and an upstream transition air passage 43 is formed between them, and the upstream transition air passage 43 is connected to the impeller outlet 202 and the air guide inlet of the air guide passage 301. For example, as shown in FIG. 11, a part of the inner wall adjacent to the first stage impeller outlet 202a of the case 1 is formed as an upstream air guide surface, and the upstream air guide surface is an arc surface. As a result, an upstream transition air passage 43 is defined between the upstream air guide surface and the second air guide member main body air guide surface 411, one end of the upstream transition air passage 43 is connected to the first-stage impeller outlet 202a and the other end is connected to the air guide inlet of the air guide passage 301, the upstream air guide surface and the second air guide member main body air guide surface 411 are both arc-shaped, and the upstream transition air passage 43 is also arc-shaped. In this way, the upstream transition air passage 43 can guide air while reducing wind resistance and reducing air volume loss, which is advantageous for improving exhaust efficiency.

[0123] Further, referring to FIG. 11 , the cross-sectional area of ​​the upstream transition air passage 43 tends to decrease from the impeller outlet 202 toward the air inlet of the air guide passage 301. In other words, in the direction from the first-stage impeller outlet 202a to the air guide passage 301, the cross-sectional area of ​​the upstream transition air passage 43 can be gradually decreased, thus helping to improve the air flow speed and forming a negative pressure inside the fan assembly 100, thereby further improving the suction power of the vacuum cleaner.

[0124] In one specific embodiment, as shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 3, the first stage impeller 20a, the first air guide member 3 and the second stage impeller 20b are coaxially arranged in the axial direction of the fan assembly 100, and the output shaft 71 of the driving member 7 is fixedly connected to the first stage impeller 20a and the second stage impeller 20b, and can be rotatably connected to the first air guide member 3. This can effectively reduce the space occupied by the impeller assembly 2 in the axial direction, which is favorable for reducing the axial size of the fan assembly 100 and for realizing a lightweight design of the vacuum cleaner. In addition, by coaxially installing the output shaft 71 of the driving member 7 and the multiple impellers 20, the output shaft 71 of the driving member 7 can be simultaneously transmission-connected to the multiple impellers 20, which can reduce the number of the driving members 7, save the space occupied by the driving members 7, and further reduce the size of the fan assembly 100, which is favorable for realizing a lightweight design of the vacuum cleaner and has low cost investment.

[0125] 2, in some embodiments of the present application, the case 1 includes a case body 11 and a cover body 12, the case body 11 is fitted with the cover body 12 to define a storage chamber 13, an air intake port 14 is formed in the cover body 12, and the case body 11 is detachably connected to the cover body 12. In this way, by removing the cover body 12 from the case body 11, the impeller assembly 2 and the like can be easily installed in the storage chamber 13, thereby reducing the difficulty of assembling the fan assembly 100.

[0126] Here, the cover 12 is placed over the first-stage impeller 20a, and the cover 12 is formed with an annular groove 18 surrounding the air intake 14, the annular groove 18 faces the first air guide member 3, and the outer periphery of the impeller inlet 201 of the first-stage impeller 20a is located within the annular groove 18. By aligning the annular groove 18 with the impeller inlet 201 of the first-stage impeller 20a, the cover 12 and the first-stage impeller 20a can be positioned at high speed, which is advantageous for improving the assembly efficiency of the fan assembly 100. Moreover, the airflow passing through the air intake 14 can all enter the first-stage impeller 20a, effectively avoiding loss of gas flow.

[0127] In one specific example, referring to Figures 2 and 4, the cover body 12 includes a cover body 121, a first bent portion 122 and a second bent portion 123. The upper end of the cover body 121 is bent into the exhaust port 15 to form the first bent portion 122, and the end of the first bent portion 122 remote from the cover body 121 is bent toward the first-stage impeller 20a to form the second bent portion 123. The cover body 121, the first bent portion 122 and the second bent portion 123 together define an annular groove 18, that is, the second bent portion 123 defines the intake port 14, and the airflow can directly enter the impeller inlet 201 along the second bent portion 123.

[0128] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Fig. 3 and Fig. 4, the sealing member 8 includes a first sealing member 81 and a second sealing member 82, and the first sealing member 81 is used to seal the gap between the annular groove 18 and the first stage impeller 20a. That is, at least a part of the first sealing member 81 is located in the annular groove 18, and the first sealing member 81 satisfactorily fills the gap between the cover body 12 and the impeller inlet 201 of the first stage impeller 20a. As shown in Fig. 3, the second sealing member 82 is used to seal the gap between the outer periphery of the impeller inlet 201 of the second stage impeller 20b and the cavity wall of the storage chamber 13. That is, the second sealing member 82 is filled between the outer periphery of the impeller outlet 202 of the second stage impeller 20b and the cavity wall of the storage chamber 13. This effectively prevents the airflow from escaping through the gaps between the first stage impeller 20a, the second stage impeller 20b, and the cavity wall of the housing chamber 13, thereby reducing airflow loss and being advantageous for improving the aerodynamic performance of the fan assembly 100. In addition, resonance noise caused by contact between the impeller 20 and the case 1 can be effectively avoided.

[0129] 15 , according to some embodiments of the present application, the fan assembly 100 further includes a first bearing 10, an outer ring of the first bearing 10 is fixedly connected to the first air guide member 3, and an output shaft 71 of the driving member 7 is inserted into an inner ring of the first bearing 10. This ensures that the output shaft 71 of the driving member 7 can rotate relative to the first air guide member 3, and at the same time, the eccentric oscillation of the output shaft 71 of the driving member 7 can be effectively suppressed by the limit of the first bearing 10 by the first air guide member 3, which is advantageous for improving the stability of the fan assembly 100.

[0130] 15, the fan assembly 100 further includes a bearing seat 9, which is provided between the first air guide member 3 and the first bearing 10. This allows the bearing seat 9 to effectively buffer the force transmitted from the output shaft 71 of the driving member 7 to the first bearing 10, thereby effectively reducing interference with the first air guide member 3 caused by vibration of the driving member 7, which is advantageous for improving the stability of the fan assembly 100. The bearing seat 9 is detachably provided on the first air guide member 3, which reduces the difficulty of mounting the bearing and also makes later maintenance easier.

[0131] 1 and 3, the bearing seat 9 has a bearing mounting groove 92 for receiving the first bearing 10, and the output shaft 71 of the driving member 7 is inserted into the first bearing 10. This can effectively reduce the difficulty of mounting the first bearing 10. Furthermore, in the flow direction of the airflow of the fan assembly 100, the pitch between the bearing seat 9 and the upstream impeller 20 is equal to or greater than the pitch between the first air guide member 3 and the upstream impeller 20. That is, the pitch between the bearing seat 9 and the upstream impeller 20 may be equal to the pitch between the first air guide member 3 and the upstream impeller 20. As shown in FIG. 3, the upper end surface of the first air guide member body 302 and the upper end surface of the bearing seat 9 are flush with each other, or the pitch between the bearing seat 9 and the upstream impeller 20 is greater than the pitch between the first air guide member 3 and the upstream impeller 20. In addition, the output shaft 71 of the driving member 7 is drivably connected to the impeller 20 and rotatably connected to the first air guide member 3, so that the impeller 20 is rotatable relative to the first air guide member 3. This effectively prevents the bearing seat 9 from interfering with the rotation of the impeller 20, which is advantageous for improving the stability of the fan assembly 100. In addition, it effectively saves space in the axial direction of the fan assembly 100, and the layout is rational.

[0132] The first air guide member 3 has a limit groove 312 formed on its axial end surface facing the upstream impeller 20 to accommodate the bearing seat 9. This effectively reduces the difficulty of mounting and positioning the bearing seat 9, which is advantageous for improving the assembly efficiency of the fan assembly 100, and effectively ensures a strong connection between the bearing seat 9 and the first air guide member 3. Furthermore, a first air guide member through hole 310 is formed on the bottom wall of the limit groove 312, and the output shaft 71 of the drive member 7 is inserted into the first air guide member through hole 310. This effectively realizes a rotatable connection between the output shaft 71 of the drive member 7 and the first air guide member 3, and the output shaft 71 of the drive member 7 passes through the first air guide member 3 to be easily connected to the upstream impeller 20 for power transmission.

[0133] 3 and 16, according to some embodiments of the present application, the bearing seat 9 may include a body portion 91, an outer ring portion 94, and a connection portion 95. Specifically, the bearing mounting groove 92 is formed in the body portion 91, and a bearing seat through hole 93 facing the first air guide member through hole 310 is formed in the bottom wall of the bearing mounting groove 92. That is, the first bearing 10 is provided in the body portion 91, and the output shaft 71 of the driving member 7 may pass through the bearing seat through hole 93 to be combined with the bearing.

[0134] Furthermore, the outer ring portion 94 is provided on the outer periphery of the main body portion 91, and the outer ring portion 94 is provided coaxially with the main body portion 91, and both ends of the connection portion 95 are connected to the side walls where the main body portion 91 and the outer ring portion 94 face each other. That is, the outer ring portion 94 is located radially outward of the main body portion 91, one end of the connection portion 95 is connected to one side of the outer ring portion 94 facing the main body portion 91, and the other end of the connection portion 95 is connected to the outer periphery wall of the main body portion 91, so that the connection portion 95 can connect the main body portion 91 and the outer ring portion 94, and when the moment on the output shaft 71 of the driving member 7 is transmitted to the main body portion 91 via the bearing, the main body portion 91 can be distributed to the outer ring portion 94 via the connection portion 95, so that stress concentration at the position of the main body portion 91 can be effectively avoided, and the acting force can be effectively avoided from being transmitted to the first air guide member 3, which is advantageous for improving the structural strength of the first air guide member 3.

[0135] The main body 91, the outer ring 94, and the connecting portion 95 are all fitted into the limit groove 312. In other words, the limit groove 312 can be well accommodated in the main body 91, the outer ring 94, and the connecting portion 95, further improving the fixing strength of the first air guide member 3 to the bearing seat 9.

[0136] Preferably, a plurality of connection parts 95 are provided, and the plurality of connection parts 95 are arranged at intervals along the outer peripheral wall of the main body part 91. As a result, the outer ring part 94 is connected to the outer peripheral wall of the main body part 91 by the plurality of connection parts 95, and the moment acting on the main body part 91 can be well dispersed via the plurality of connection parts 95, ensuring a strong connection between the main body part 91 and the outer ring part 94, which is advantageous for improving the structural strength of the bearing seat 9.

[0137] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to FIGS. 7-9 , the limit groove 312 includes a first limit groove 313 , a second limit groove 314 and a third limit groove 315 . Specifically, the first limit groove 313 extends along the axial direction of the fan assembly 100, the main body portion 91 is accommodated in the first limit groove 313, a first air guide member through hole 310 is formed in a bottom wall of the first limit groove 313, the second limit groove 314 extends along the circumferential direction of the fan assembly 100, the second limit groove 314 is annular, the outer ring portion 94 is accommodated in the second limit groove 314, the third limit groove 315 extends along the radial direction of the fan assembly 100, both ends of the third limit groove 315 are respectively connected to the first limit groove 313 and the second limit groove 314, and the connection portion 95 is located in the third limit groove 315.

[0138] As a result, by limiting the connecting portion 95 by the third limit groove 315, it is possible to effectively limit the rotation of the main body portion 91 relative to the first limit groove 313 and the rotation of the outer ring portion 94 relative to the second limit groove 314, thereby effectively avoiding wear due to the relative movement between the bearing seat 9 and the first air guide member 3. Furthermore, it is possible to effectively reduce the difficulty of aligning the bearing seat 9 with the limit groove 312, which is advantageous for improving the assembly efficiency of the fan assembly 100.

[0139] Furthermore, the third limit groove 315 includes a first limit sub-groove 316 and a second limit sub-groove 317 arranged along the axial direction of the fan assembly, at least a portion of the connection portion 95 is located within the second limit sub-groove 317, and in the circumferential direction of the fan assembly 100, the width of the first limit sub-groove 316 is greater than the width of the second limit sub-groove 317.

[0140] As a result, the second limit sub-groove 317 can effectively form a constant pitch between the connection portion 95 and the side wall opposite the second limit sub-groove 317, making it convenient to grasp the connection portion 95 via the above-mentioned gap and remove the bearing seat 9, and can effectively reduce the material input for the first air guide member 3 and make it lighter.

[0141] In one embodiment of the present application, the connection portion 95 includes a first connection sub-portion 951 and a second connection sub-portion 952 arranged along the axial direction of the fan assembly 100, and in the circumferential direction of the fan assembly 100, the width of the first connection sub-portion 951 is greater than the width of the second connection sub-portion 952, the first limit sub-groove 316 is suitable for receiving the first connection sub-portion 951, and the second limit sub-groove 317 is suitable for receiving the second connection sub-portion 952. This can satisfactorily improve the connection strength between the outer ring portion 94 and the main body portion 91, i.e., improve the structural strength of the bearing seat 9, and further increase the contact area between the connection portion 95, the outer ring portion 94, and the main body, thereby further restricting the rotation of the bearing seat 9 relative to the first air guide member 3.

[0142] According to some embodiments of the present application, a support 96 is provided on the upstream side of the bearing seat 9 away from the impeller 20, and the support 96 extends in the axial direction of the fan assembly 100 away from the upstream impeller 20, and the limit groove 312 has a support hole 311 for accommodating the support 96. Thus, by inserting the support 96 into the support hole 311, the rotation of the bearing seat 9 relative to the first air guide member 3 can be restricted by the limit of the support 96 by the first air guide member 3, and wear and tear due to the relative movement between the bearing seat 9 and the first air guide member 3 can be avoided.

[0143] Preferably, the support pillars 96 are provided on the outer ring portion 94 on the side farther from the upstream impeller 20 and extend in a direction away from the upstream impeller 20, and the support pillar bore 311 is formed in the bottom wall of the second limit groove 314, and the support pillar bore 311 extends along the axial direction of the fan assembly 100. This allows the support pillars 96 to be inserted into the support pillar bore 311 along the axial direction of the fan assembly 100, which can favorably reduce the difficulty of assembling the bearing seat 9.

[0144] Preferably, a plurality of support columns 96 are provided, and the plurality of support columns 96 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the main body 91. For this reason, a plurality of support column bores 311 are formed in the first air guide member 3 to match the support columns 96, and the support columns 96 are all inserted into the support column bores 311, so that the plurality of support columns 96 are limited by the air guide ribs 303, which further restricts the rotation of the bearing seat 9 relative to the first air guide member 3, and further prevents wear and tear due to the relative movement between the bearing seat 9 and the first air guide member 3.

[0145] In one specific example, the support post hole 311 penetrates the stopper outer protrusion 309, so that the support post 96 is inserted into the stopper outer protrusion 309. That is, the support post hole 311 is provided in the stopper outer protrusion 309. The stopper outer protrusion 309 is provided to protrude from the outer circumferential wall of the main body 91, and extends along the axial direction of the fan assembly 100. This allows the support post hole 311 to have a longer extension length, and the support post 96 to be set longer, thereby improving the connection strength between the first air guide member 3 and the bearing seat 9.

[0146] According to some embodiments of the present application, the fan assembly 100 further includes a third air guide member (not shown) and a pressure expanding member 6. At least a portion of the pressure expanding member 6 is provided within the air exhaust port 15, the pressure expanding member 6 is provided between the downstream impeller 20 and the air exhaust port 15, an air exhaust passage 63 is defined between the pressure expanding member 6 and the case 1, the air exhaust passage 63 is connected to the air exhaust port 15 of the case 1, and the third air guide member is provided between the downstream impeller 20 and the pressure expanding member 6 to guide the exhaust air from the downstream impeller outlet 202 to the air exhaust passage 63. In this manner, the provision of the third air guide member is advantageous in reducing wind resistance between the two-stage impeller outlet 202b and the air exhaust passage 63, reducing wind loss, thereby further improving the air flow efficiency of the fan assembly 100.

[0147] Furthermore, the third air guide member is configured as an annular member, and is fitted onto the outside of the downstream impeller 20; that is, the third air guide member can be fitted onto the outside of the two-stage impeller 20b; for example, as shown in FIG. 1, the third air guide member is formed as a third air guide ring, and the third air guide ring is fitted onto the outer periphery of the two-stage impeller outlet 202b, so as to guide the exhaust air from the two-stage impeller outlet 202b to the air guide passage 301; in this way, the third air guide member can guide the exhaust air from any position in the circumferential direction of the two-stage impeller outlet 202b, and at the same time has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture.

[0148] In some embodiments, an annular micro-gap is formed between the third air guide member and the downstream impeller 20 with a radial gap therebetween, that is, an annular micro-gap is formed between the third air guide member and the two-stage impeller 20b with a radial gap therebetween in the radial direction of the impeller 20, thus avoiding the interference of the third air guide member with the movement of the two-stage impeller 20b and at the same time making it convenient for assembly.

[0149] According to some embodiments of the present application, the pressure expanding member 6 has a pressure expanding member mounting surface, which is a surface of the pressure expanding member 6 downstream close to the impeller 20, the third air guide member is mounted on the pressure expanding member mounting surface, and the diameter of the pressure expanding member mounting surface is larger than the diameter of the two-stage impeller 20b, so that the radial portion of the pressure expanding member mounting surface exceeding the impeller 20 is formed as an installation space, and the third air guide member is mounted in the installation space of the pressure expanding member mounting surface, in this way, the installation of the third air guide member is more stable, which is advantageous to improving the space utilization rate of the fan assembly 100, and at the same time, it is convenient for the third air guide member to guide the exhaust air at the two-stage impeller outlet 202b.

[0150] Furthermore, the third air guide member includes a third air guide member main body and a third air guide member mounting portion, the third air guide member mounting portion is provided on the third air guide member main body, a pressure expanding member mounting portion is formed on the pressure expanding member mounting surface, and the third air guide member mounting portion is detachably connected to the pressure expanding member mounting portion, thus making it convenient to install and remove the third air guide member and the pressure expanding member 6, for example, the third air guide member mounting portion and the pressure expanding member mounting portion can be inserted and fitted into each other, of course, the specific connection method between the third air guide member mounting portion and the pressure expanding member mounting portion is not limited here, and the specific connection method between the third air guide member mounting portion and the pressure expanding member mounting portion can be reasonably selected according to actual needs.

[0151] Furthermore, the pressure expanding member mounting portion is configured as a pressure expanding member mounting groove, and the third air guide member mounting portion is configured as a third mounting protrusion. For example, the third air guide member mounting portion can be formed by at least a part of a protrusion along the radial direction toward one side surface of the pressure expanding member 6 of the third air guide member body, and the third mounting protrusion can be inserted into the pressure expanding member mounting groove, so that the connection between the third air guide member and the pressure expanding member 6 is more stable and convenient to remove at the same time. Of course, the present application is not limited thereto, and the pressure expanding member mounting portion can be formed as a third mounting protrusion, and the third air guide member mounting portion can be configured as a third mounting groove.

[0152] According to some embodiments of the present application, the third air guide member includes a third air guide member body. The third air guide member body has a third air guide member body air guide surface and a third air guide member body abutment surface, the third air guide member body abutment surface is fitted and abutted against the pressure expansion member mounting surface, the third air guide member body air guide surface is used to guide the exhaust air from the two-stage impeller outlet 202b to the exhaust air passage 63, for example, as shown in Fig. 1, the third air guide member body abutment surface and the pressure expansion member mounting surface face each other along the axial direction of the two-stage impeller 20b, and at the same time, the third air guide member body abutment surface and the third air guide member mounting portion are disposed inward and outward along the radial direction. and the third air guiding member main body abutment surface is located radially inward of the third air guiding member mounting portion, the third air guiding member main body abutment surface and the third air guiding member mounting portion are formed as a stepped structure, the third air guiding member main body air guiding surface faces the case 1, and the third air guiding member main body air guiding surface is an arc surface, thus the third air guiding member main body abutment surface is useful for a stable combination of the third air guiding member and the pressure expanding member 6, and the third air guiding member main body air guiding surface can realize air guiding while reducing wind resistance and reducing air volume loss.

[0153] Furthermore, the impeller outlet 202 of the upstream impeller 20 has a lower edge of the impeller outlet 202, the inner peripheral edge of the third air guide member main body air guide surface extends to a position adjacent to the lower edge of the impeller outlet 202, and the outer peripheral edge of the third air guide member main body air guide surface extends to the joint between the mounting surface 318 of the pressure expanding member 6 and the outer peripheral surface of the pressure expanding member 6; in other words, the inner peripheral edge of the third air guide member main body air guide surface extends to a position adjacent to the edge of the wheel disk 23 of the two-stage impeller 20b, and the outer peripheral edge of the third air guide member main body air guide surface extends to the joint with the outer peripheral surface of the pressure expanding member 6. In this way, the third air guide member main body air guide surface can better guide the exhaust air from the two-stage impeller outlet 202b into the exhaust air passage 63, thereby reducing the air volume loss.

[0154] Furthermore, referring to Figures 1 and 14, the third air guide member main body air guide surface and the outer peripheral surface of the pressure expanding member 6 transition smoothly, for example, the third air guide member main body air guide surface can be tangent to the outer peripheral surface of the pressure expanding member 6, thereby reducing the wind resistance at the connection between the third air guide member main body air guide surface and the outer peripheral surface of the pressure expanding member 6, reducing the air volume loss and improving the exhaust efficiency.

[0155] Furthermore, a downstream air guide surface corresponding to the downstream impeller 20 is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the case 1, and the downstream air guide surface corresponds to the third air guide member main body air guide surface, forming a downstream transition air passage 5 between them, and the downstream transition air passage 5 is connected to the impeller outlet 202 and the inlet of the exhaust air passage 63. For example, a downstream air guide surface is formed on a part of the inner wall adjacent to the two-stage impeller outlet 202b of the case 1, the downstream air guide surface is an arc surface, and the downstream transition air passage 5 is defined between the downstream air guide surface and the third air guide member main body air guide surface, one end of the downstream transition air passage 5 is connected to the two-stage impeller outlet 202b and the other end is connected to the inlet of the exhaust air passage 63, and since both the downstream air guide surface and the third air guide member main body air guide surface are arc-shaped, the downstream transition air passage 5 is also arc-shaped. In this way, the downstream transition air passage 5 realizes air guide while reducing wind resistance, reducing air volume loss, and is advantageous for improving exhaust air efficiency.

[0156] Furthermore, the cross-sectional area of ​​the downstream transition air passage 5 tends to decrease from the impeller outlet 202 toward the inlet of the exhaust air passage 63. In other words, in the direction from the two-stage impeller outlet 202b to the exhaust air passage 63, the cross-sectional area of ​​the downstream transition air passage 5 can be gradually decreased, thus helping to improve the air flow speed and forming a negative pressure inside the fan assembly 100, thereby further improving the suction power of the vacuum cleaner.

[0157] According to some embodiments of the present application, the multiple impellers 20 are located on the same side of the driving member 7 in the axial direction of the fan assembly 100. This allows the exhaust air of the upstream impeller 20 to be directly guided through the first air guide member 3 and discharged to the downstream impeller 20, which effectively reduces gas flow loss and is advantageous for improving the aerodynamic performance of the fan assembly 100.

[0158] 14, the driving member 7 is defined by the inner wall of the storage chamber 13 and the exhaust port 15, that is, at least a part of the driving member 7 is located within the storage chamber 13. For example, the driving member 7 can be completely located within the storage chamber 13 and the driving member 7 can be well protected by the case 1, or as shown in FIG. 14, a part of the driving member 7 is located within the storage chamber 13. The exhaust port 15 surrounding the driving member 7 is defined between the outer peripheral wall of the driving member 7 and the cavity wall of the storage chamber 13. This can ensure good uniform exhaust at the position of the exhaust port 15, and the mechanism of the fan assembly 100 can be made compact, which is advantageous for reducing the radial size of the fan assembly 100.

[0159] According to some other embodiments of the present application, at least two impellers 20 are distributed on both sides of the driving member 7 in the axial direction of the fan assembly 100. That is, the first stage impeller 20a and the second stage impeller 20b are respectively located on both sides of the axial direction of the driving member 7. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 14, the upstream impeller 20 and the downstream impeller 20 are respectively located on both sides of the axial direction of the driving member 7, so that the exhaust port 15 of the upstream impeller 20 flows through the driving member 7 and then exhausts to the downstream impeller 20, which can effectively reduce the pitch between the driving member 7 and the impeller 20, thereby reducing the loss transmitted by the rotation of the driving member 7, which is favorable for reducing the power consumption of the driving member 7.

[0160] For example, in the axial direction of the fan assembly 100, the pitch between the drive member 7 and the upstream impeller 20 is controlled to match the pitch between the drive member 7 and the downstream, which is advantageous in improving the stability of the drive member 7 driving the rotation of the impeller 20.

[0161] The first air guide member 3 enables the radial exhaust air of the upstream impeller 20 to be adjusted toward the axial direction of the fan assembly 100, and the drive member 7 is spaced apart from the inner surface of the case 1 in the axial direction, allowing airflow to flow through the gap between the drive member 7 and the case 1 to the downstream impeller 20.

[0162] 14, the fan assembly 100 preferably further includes a contraction section 17, the downstream impeller 20 is disposed downstream of the contraction section 17, the inner diameter of the contraction section 17 decreases in the direction in which the driving member 7 moves toward the downstream impeller 20, and the minimum inner diameter e of the contraction section 17 and the inner diameter d of the downstream impeller inlet 201 satisfy e=d. That is, the inner diameter of one end of the contraction section 17 adjacent to the downstream impeller 20 is the same as the inner diameter of the impeller inlet 201 of the downstream impeller 20. As a result, the contraction section 17 can effectively collect the exhaust air downstream of the driving member 7, and the exhaust air passing through the contraction section 17 can stably flow into the downstream impeller inlet 201, and the contraction section 17 and the downstream impeller inlet 201 can be well aligned, which is advantageous to improving the stability of the gas flow.
