Abstract:
The described embodiments relate generally to improving performance characteristics of a low profile fan. More specifically configurations having sloped fan blade edges are disclosed. By applying a gradual slope to each of the fan blades, performance of the fan can be increased without risking contact or rubbing between the fan blades and a fan housing. In some embodiments, the sloped fan blades can be configured to prevent contact when bearings of the fan include a certain amount of tilt play.
