[0017] Option 1

[0018] 1-3 , the fan blade 11 includes a fan blade connector and a fan blade member. The fan blade connector includes an annular impeller 24 and a connecting arm 25. The annular impeller 24 is annular. One end of the connecting arm 25 is connected to the inner ring wall of the annular impeller 24, and the other end of the connecting arm 25 is fixed to the outer wall of the fan blade cover 26. A plurality of fan blade members are evenly fixed on the top surface 29 and the bottom surface 30 of the annular impeller 24 along the circumferential direction of the fan blade cover 26. The fan blade member is arc-shaped. The fan blade member includes a first blade 27 and a second blade 28 extending along the axial portion of the rotating axis of the fan blade 11 and arranged circumferentially. At least a portion of the first blade 27 is located on the top surface 29 of the annular impeller 24, and at least a portion of the second blade 28 is located on the bottom surface 30 of the annular impeller 24. The fan blade member is arc-shaped, which increases the wind-guiding ability of the fan blade member.

[0019] It should be noted that the annular impeller 24 is in a circular ring shape, the annular impeller may also be in an elliptical ring shape, and in some embodiments the annular impeller 24 may also be in a polygonal shape.

[0020] The fan blade component includes a first blade 27 and a second blade 28 that partially extend along the axial direction of the rotation axis of the fan blade 11 and are arranged along the circumferential direction, which means that the fan blade 11 has a rotation axis that rotates around the central axis, a portion of the first blade 27 extends along the axial direction of the rotation axis, a portion of the second blade 28 extends along the axial direction of the rotation axis, and the first blade 27 and the second blade 28 are arranged along the circumferential direction on the annular impeller.

[0021] Of course, a portion of the first blade 27 and the second blade 28 can form a certain angle with the annular impeller, which can be 60 degrees to 89 degrees. In other embodiments, they can also bend and extend along the circumferential direction of the annular impeller 24. There is no limitation here, as long as they can promote air flow.

[0022] There are gaps between the multiple first blades 27, and gaps between the multiple second blades 28. The gaps can accommodate air. When the fan blade 11 rotates, the air pressure in places with greater fluid flow rates is lower than in other places. The air in other places will replenish air in places with lower air pressure, that is, air will be replenished from between the first blades 27 and the second blades 28 and the fan blade cover 26. Wind enters in the axial direction of the fan blade 11 to fill the gaps, and the wind is pushed out in the approximate tangential direction of the rotation direction of the fan blade 11.

[0023] The height of the first blade 27 located on the top surface 29 of the annular impeller 24 is greater than the height of the second blade 28 located on the top surface 29 of the annular impeller 24, and the height of the second blade 28 located on the bottom surface 30 of the annular impeller 24 is greater than the height of the first blade 27 located on the bottom surface 30 of the annular impeller 24, which can effectively push air and improve the pushing efficiency of the fan blade 11.

[0024] The first blade 27 includes a first end 31 close to the annular impeller 24 and a second end 32 away from the annular impeller 24, and the first end 31 is flush with the bottom surface 30 of the annular impeller 24. The second blade 28 includes a third end 33 close to the annular impeller 24 and a fourth end 34 away from the annular impeller 24, and the third end 33 is flush with the top surface 29 of the annular impeller 24. The flushing of the top surface 29 and the bottom surface 30 can maximize the use of the gap to push air, thereby improving the pushing efficiency of the fan blade 11.

[0025] In another embodiment, the first blade 27 includes a first end 31 close to the annular impeller 24 and a second end 32 away from the annular impeller 24, and the first end 31 is not flush with the annular impeller 24. The second blade 28 includes a third end 33 close to the annular impeller 24 and a fourth end 34 away from the annular impeller 24, and the third end 33 is not flush with the annular impeller 24. The first end 31 and the third end 33 are not flush. When the fan blade 11 rotates, the first end 31 and the third end 33 can also push air, thereby improving the pushing efficiency of the fan blade 11.

[0026] The first blade 27 bends and extends outward in the radial direction of the fan blade and extends out of the top surface of the annular impeller 24. The second blade 28 bends and extends outward in the radial direction of the fan blade and extends out of the bottom surface of the annular impeller 24. It should be pointed out that the radial outward bending and extending here can refer to extending in the radial direction toward the fan blade cover 26 or extending in the radial direction away from the fan blade cover 26, or extending in the radial direction both toward the fan blade cover 26 and away from the fan blade cover. There is no restriction here. The first blade 27 and the second blade 28 extend out of the annular impeller so that airflow will flow between the first blade 27 and the second blade 28, complementing each other's airflow so that the blades can push the airflow out, thereby increasing the air volume.

[0027] The length of the first side 35 of the connecting arm 25 is greater than the length of the second side 36 of the connecting arm 25. The ratio of the large radius of the outer wall of the annular impeller 24 to the small radius of the inner wall is 0.5 to 1.5. The ratio of the diameter of the annular impeller 24 to the inner diameter of the fan cover 26 is 0.5 to 1.5. The distance between the inner wall of the annular impeller 24 and the outer wall of the fan cover 26 is 1 to 5 mm, which makes the weight of the entire fan blade 11 lighter and the air supply efficiency better. Of course, the specific values ​​are not considered to be limited here, as long as the air outlet effect can be guaranteed.

[0028] The first blade 27 and the second blade 28 are staggered. The first blade 27 and the second blade 28 are arranged in an alternating manner. It can be understood that the first blade 27 is located between the two second blades 28, which speeds up the air supply efficiency and rationally utilizes the spatial structure.

[0029] The first blade 27 and the second blade 28 include a windward surface and a leeward surface. The windward surface is concave to form an inner arc, and the leeward surface is convex to form an outer arc. When the fan blades are rotated, the fan blades with the inner arc can push more air, thereby increasing the air volume and improving the air supply efficiency.

[0030] The fan cover 26 has a storage cavity on one side facing the second blade 28, and the storage cavity is used to accommodate driving components such as the motor to prevent the motor and other driving components from disrupting the air path, ensuring that the air path is not disturbed and preventing the air supply efficiency from being reduced.

[0031] Referring to Figure 4, it should be pointed out that the fan blades 11 in this embodiment can be applied to various fan fields, including but not limited to: neck hanging fans, handheld fans, desktop fans, floor fans and baby stroller fans, etc., which need to promote air circulation, and can be installed inside the above products.

[0032] Option 2

The fan blades 11 are installed in the first bracket 10. The fan blades 11 are used to provide airflow to the air duct so that air can be discharged from the air outlet 12. The first bracket 10 also has an air inlet 13 and an air inducing member 14 in the air duct. When the airflow in the air duct passes through the air inducing member 14, a negative pressure is formed on the side of the air inducing member 14 away from the fan blades 11, so that the external airflow outside the first bracket 10 enters the air duct through the air inlet 13, thereby achieving the effect of doubling the air volume.

[0034] The air-inducing member 14 includes a first baffle 15 that partially faces the fan blades 11. The first baffle 15 guides the airflow direction in the air duct to flow toward the air outlet 12 along the surface of the first baffle 15. The first baffle 15 is closer to the fan blades 11 than the air inlet 13. The first baffle 15 guides the wind generated by the rotation of the motor on the fan blades 11, so that part of the generated wind does not face the air inlet 13. The air pressure in the area with high wind (fluid) flow rate is lower than the air pressure in other areas, that is, the air pressure on the side of the first baffle 15 close to the fan blades 11 is less than the air pressure generated on the side of the first baffle 15 away from the fan blades 11, and the air inlet 13 is connected to the air inlet 13 relative to the side away from the fan blades 11. The air inlet 13 is connected to the outside air, and the outside air enters the first bracket 10 through the air inlet 13, and the compensation air volume enters the first bracket 10, achieving the effect of doubling the air volume.

[0035] The air inducing member 14 also includes a second partition 16 that partially protrudes toward the fan blade 11. There is a first gap 17 between the second partition 16 and the first partition 15. The distance of the first gap 17 is 0.5mm to 8mm. Further optionally, the distance of the first gap 17 is 2mm, which better improves the air intake efficiency.

[0036] The first bracket 10 also includes a top wall 18, a bottom wall 19, a first side wall 20 and a second side wall 21. The top wall 18 connects one side of the first side wall 20 and the second side wall 21, and the bottom wall 19 connects the other side of the first side wall 20 and the second side wall 21. The first partition 15, the first side wall 20, the second side wall 21, the top wall 18 and the bottom wall 19 enclose part of the air duct to prevent wind from leaking out from other places.

[0037] The air outlet 12 is arranged on the first side wall 20 of the first bracket 10, and the air inlet 13 is at least partially arranged on the second side wall 21 of the first bracket 10, so that external air enters the first bracket 10 through the air inlet 13. It can be understood that the air inlet 13 can be partially arranged on the second side wall 21, or the air inlet 13 can be entirely arranged on the second side wall 21. There is no restriction here. The air inlet 13 is arranged on the second side wall 21 to better improve the air intake efficiency.

[0038] In an optional implementation, the top wall 18 and / or the bottom wall 19 are at least partially provided with the air inlet 13. The top wall 18 and the bottom wall 19 can be provided with the air inlet 13, or the top wall 18 is provided with the air inlet 13, or the bottom wall 19 is provided with the air inlet 13, and there is no limitation here.

[0039] The fan blade 11 includes a fan blade connector and a fan blade member, and the fan blade connector includes a first connector 24 and a second connector 25. The first connector 24 is annular, one end of the second connector 25 is connected to the inner ring wall of the first connector 24, and the other end of the second connector 25 is fixed to the outer wall of the fan blade cover 26. A plurality of the fan blade members are evenly fixed on the top surface 29 and the bottom surface 30 of the first connector 24 along the circumferential direction of the fan blade cover 26. The fan blade member is arc-shaped, and the fan blade member includes an axial extension along the rotation axis of the fan blade 11 and The first blade 27 and the second blade 28 are arranged in the circumferential direction, at least part of the first blade 27 is located on the top surface 29 of the first connecting member 24, and at least part of the second blade 28 is located on the bottom surface 30 of the first connecting member 24. The height of the first blade 27 located on the top surface 29 of the first connecting member 24 is greater than the height of the second blade 28 located on the top surface 29 of the first connecting member 24, and the height of the second blade 28 located on the lower surface of the first connecting member 24 is greater than the height of the second blade 28 located on the lower surface of the first connecting member 24.

[0040] The first blade 27 includes a first end 31 close to the first connecting member 24 and a second end 32 away from the first connecting member 24, and the first end 31 is flush with the first connecting member 24. The second blade 28 includes a third end 33 close to the first connecting member 24 and a fourth end 34 away from the first connecting member 24, and the third end 33 is flush with the first connecting member 24, which can generate a larger amount of wind.

[0041] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and does not limit the patent scope of the present application. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made using the contents of the present application specification and drawings, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
