[0002] When going out or engaging in outdoor activities in the summer, the weather is quite hot, and there may be situations where there is no air conditioning. In order to make it convenient to cool off at any time, portable fans have emerged and are widely popular because they are easy to carry and can be used anytime.

[0003] However, due to its small size, the electrical components it is equipped with can only use low power. Therefore, traditional portable fans cannot be designed to have a large airflow, resulting in poor cooling effect. Although some manufacturers have applied the structure of traditional booster fans to these small portable fans to increase airflow and improve cooling effect, such as Chinese patent (authorization announcement number: CN217029352U), they did not take into account the problem of airflow turbulence, resulting in very loud noise during operation, which seriously affects the user experience and is not conducive to the widespread application of the product.

[0027] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0028] Please refer to Figures 1-8. A silent high-speed fan includes a housing with an air duct 72 formed thereon. The air duct 72 has an air inlet and an air outlet at its two ends. A pressurization mechanism is disposed within the air duct 72. The pressurization mechanism drives air located at the air inlet to flow through the air duct 72 and then blow it out at high speed from the air outlet. A rectifier mechanism is disposed at the air outlet. The rectifier mechanism includes a shrink-fit mask 31 covering the air outlet and a rectifier blade group consisting of multiple rectifier blades 32 arranged coaxially in a circular array inside the shrink-fit mask 31. Both ends of the shrink-fit mask 31 are open. The inner diameter of the shrink-fit mask 31 radially decreases from the end facing the air duct 72 to the end away from the air duct 72. The rectifier blades 32 include... The air rectifier 321 and the air concentrator rectifier 322 are arranged near the air duct 72. The air concentrator rectifier 321 is connected to the end of the air rectifier 321 near the inner wall of the shrink mask 31 and extends towards the edge of the shrink mask 31 away from the air duct 72. The edge of the air concentrator rectifier 322 near the inner wall of the shrink mask 31 is tightly connected to the inner wall of the shrink mask 31. Both the air rectifier 321 and the air concentrator rectifier 322 are arranged parallel to the central axis of the shrink mask 31. When the high-speed air blown from the pressurization mechanism to the rectifier mechanism reaches the starting end of the shrink mask 31, the first structure it encounters is the air rectifier 321. The air rectifier 321 cuts the high-pressure airflow 9 into multiple high-speed airflows. The high-speed airflow vane enters the compression mask 31, where the inner wall contraction structure further compresses and pressurizes both sides of the vane. During this compression and pressurization process, the high-speed airflow vane generates a certain amount of turbulence due to the sudden pressurization. This turbulence is mainly concentrated near the inner wall of the compression mask 31. Therefore, the air-gathering rectifier plate 322 extends from the outlet rectifier plate 321. Through the clamping action of two adjacent air-gathering rectifier plates 322, the generated turbulence can be further combed and removed, effectively suppressing turbulence. This not only makes the high-speed airflow vane structure more stable, but also prevents the generation of greater noise once the turbulence is suppressed. The edge of the outlet rectifier plate 321 facing the pressurization mechanism is the first air cutter. Edge 323, the first cutting edge 323 is an acute-angled edge. When the high-speed airflow 9 is cut by the air outlet rectifier plate 321, although the turbulence is reduced by setting the first cutting edge 323 to an acute-angled edge, a certain amount of turbulence will still be generated due to the sudden increase in air pressure when the high-speed airflow 9 is cut. In response to this phenomenon, the width h of the air outlet rectifier plate 321 is set to be no less than 3mm. Experimental tests have shown that a distance starting from 3mm can enable a small portable fan to achieve the effect of turbulence reduction. Therefore, through the structure of the above-mentioned rectifier mechanism, not only can the high-speed airflow 9 be pressurized again, but also the generation of excess noise can be effectively overcome, achieving a silent effect.

[0029] In this embodiment, the pressurization mechanism includes a drive fan blade assembly 4 and a group of cutter blades 71 arranged coaxially in a ring array on the side of the drive fan blade assembly 4 facing the rectifier mechanism. The drive fan blade assembly 4 includes multiple drive blades 41 arranged circumferentially around the drive fan blade assembly 4. The surface of the cutter blades 71 facing the outside of the air outlet is the receiving surface 711, and the surface of the drive blades 41 facing the side of the cutter blades 71 is the driving surface 411. During the rotation of the drive fan blade assembly, the curved surfaces of the receiving surface 711 and the driving surface 411 in the same radial region intersect, and the included angle θ1 between the receiving surface 711 and the driving surface 411 is <90°. When the drive fan blade assembly 4 is working, the air at the air inlet of the air duct is driven by the drive blades 41 and accelerated towards the cutter blade group, passing through the receiving surface 711. Under the compression effect of the angle of the wind-driving surface 411, the airflow is cut and compressed to achieve pressurization. At the same time as pressurization, the flow direction of the airflow also changes under the reflection effect of the wind-receiving surface 711. In order to make the airflow reflected from the wind-receiving surface 711 blow out in a direction parallel to the axis of the compression mask 31 as much as possible to improve the airflow utilization rate, the angle θ2 between the wind-receiving surface 711 and the central axis of the wind-driving fan blade assembly 4 satisfies: 30°<θ2<60°. At the same time, the edge of the wind-cutting blade 71 facing the wind-driving fan blade assembly 4 is the second wind-cutting edge 712. The second wind-cutting edge 712 is an acute edge. Setting the second wind-cutting edge 712 as an acute edge is to make the airflow cutting smooth, thereby reducing the generation of turbulence. As long as the amount of turbulence generated can be effectively suppressed, the airflow utilization rate can be improved, and the noise reduction effect is also better.

[0030] Referring to Figure 1, a first accommodating cavity 33 is connected in the middle of the rectifier blade assembly. A digital display screen assembly 2 is installed in the first accommodating cavity 33. A transparent mask 1 is provided on the outside of the digital display screen assembly 2. The digital display screen assembly 2 is electrically connected to the circuit board assembly 5 and can be used to display the actual data of the fan's working mode and power consumption, so as to realize the function of visually monitoring the working status of the fan.

[0031] Referring to Figure 3, in another embodiment, a first accommodating cavity 33 is connected in the middle of the rectifier blade assembly. A hot and cold semiconductor chip 21 is installed in the first accommodating cavity 33. A conductive mask 11 is provided on the side of the first accommodating cavity 33 away from the pressurizing mechanism. A through hole is opened on the side of the first accommodating cavity 33 near the pressurizing mechanism. A heat dissipation component 22 is provided on the side of the through hole facing the pressurizing mechanism. The cooling end of the hot and cold semiconductor chip 21 is thermally connected to the conductive mask 11, and the heating end of the hot and cold semiconductor chip 21 is thermally connected to the heat dissipation component 22. The hot and cold semiconductor chip 21 is electrically connected to the circuit board assembly 5. The conductive mask 11 is an aluminum alloy shell, and the heat dissipation component 22 is an aluminum alloy component. To enhance its heat dissipation effect, the heat dissipation component 22 is made of aluminum alloy. The heat-generating component 22 extends and diffuses along the contour of the rectifier blade 32. When the hot and cold semiconductor chip 21 is activated by the control button, the hot and cold semiconductor chip 21 generates a cooling effect at the cooling end, so that the conductive mask 11 can be used for cold compress on the human body after cooling. At the same time, the heat generated at the heating end is diffused through the heat dissipation component 22 and carried out by the airflow generated by the pressurization mechanism. Since the conductive mask 11 is relatively concentrated, its cooling sensation is strong when it comes into contact with human skin, and the cold compress effect can be clearly felt. However, since the heat dissipation component 22 has a large heat dissipation area, the heat dissipated per unit area becomes less obvious. Therefore, when it is carried out by the high-speed airflow for heat dissipation, the temperature of the airflow will not increase significantly, thus not affecting the use effect. This is a feasible solution that has been proven by practice.

[0032] The housing includes a front shell 3 and a rear shell 7 that are connected to each other. After the front shell 3 and the rear shell 7 are connected, the upper end forms the air duct 72, and the lower end forms a second accommodating cavity. The second accommodating cavity is equipped with a circuit board assembly 5 and a battery 6. The circuit board assembly 5 and the battery 6 are electrically connected. An air inlet cover 8 is installed at the air inlet of the air duct 72. A lanyard hole 73 is provided at the lower corner of the housing for attaching a lanyard, thereby increasing the portability of the fan. A control button and a USB interface are electrically connected to the circuit board assembly 5. The control button and the USB interface are both located in a pre-set through hole in the housing and extend outward from the through hole. The control button is used to adjust and switch the working mode and on / off state of the fan. By connecting the USB interface to an external power source using a charging cable, the battery 6 can be charged to replenish its power.

[0033] In summary, this invention utilizes a pressurizing mechanism to achieve initial pressurization and acceleration of the airflow, and a rectifier mechanism to guide the high-speed airflow so that it is concentrated and blown out in a direction parallel to the axis of the retractable mask 31. This improves the utilization rate of the airflow and also provides secondary pressurization and acceleration, significantly increasing the wind speed and delivery distance. Furthermore, by carefully controlling details such as setting the first cutting edge 323 and the second cutting edge 712 to acute angles and the structural coordination between the rectifier blade 32 and the retractable mask 31, turbulence is eliminated step by step, thus eliminating turbulence at its source and achieving a quiet, high-speed blowing effect.
