A tightening device with easy alignment is adapted for securing a ceiling fan to a fitting which is used to mount the ceiling fan onto a flat ceiling wall, and includes an annular flange member extending inwardly and radially from a lower annular wall of a protective covering member in the form of a canopy, and an anchored flat sheet formed with an upper major wall of a motor casing. The anchored flat sheet has an inner peripheral wall, and a plurality of first fastening positions proximate to the inner peripheral wall and angularly spaced apart from one another. An upper annular clamping member has an outer circumferential portion, and an inner circumferential portion extending inwardly and radially from the outer circumferential portion. When the clamping member is placed on the annular flange member, the outer circumferential portion will sandwich the annular flange member to the anchored flat sheet. The inner circumferential portion defines second fastening positions respectively corresponding to the first fastening positions in terms of number and relative position and aligning with the same axially. A plurality of fastening members fasten the anchored flat sheet and the inner circumferential portion together along the first and second fastening positions.

Spring clips for holding lamp shades such as but not limited to fragile globe and funnel shapes, onto lamp fixtures include elongated types clips that connect to the stem beneath the socket of the lamp fixture. The longitudinal clips springably expand within the neck and lower interior expanding portion of the globe shade, securely holding the latter in place to the lamp fixture. The spring clips have great applicability to the light fixtures on ceiling fans offering a secure fastening system that prevents accidental dislodging of the fragile shade when vibrations from the spinning fan occur. The spring clips allow the shades to be more easily put in place over the overhead type light fixtures as compared to the traditional method of using side screws to support and secure the shades. The clips can have hook or barb ends which prevent the accidental release of the shade from the fixture. A safety sleeve can be included which slips over the socket so that the sleeve and the clip together help prevent the shades from being accidentally dislodged from the socket.

Quick attachable and detachable mounting arms for ceiling fans. A first version has flat headed fasteners initially attached to one end of mounting arms, with key-hole slots in the endshield of the ceiling fan motor. The user raises the mounting arm so that the flat headed fasteners fits through the larger openings in the keyhole slots and then pulls the mounting arm outward until the arm locks in place by the smaller opening portions of the keyhole slots. Rubber type gaskets and washers help lock and hold the mounting arms in place. The flat headed fasteners can also be located on the endshields with the keyhole slots on mounting arms. A second embodiment includes inwardly deformable springably snapable fasteners that can be located on the ends of the mounting arms which can deform inwardly and expand after passing through slots on the endshield of the rotor. Alternatively, the fasteners can be located on the bottom of the endshield with the receiving slots on the ends of the mounting arms. The different versions can include guide posts for allowing only one single fastener to be needed. A third embodiment allows the inwardly bendable snapable fasteners to be removable with screws.

An improved fan blade is constructed from a series of wooden slats. Holes are drilled through the wooden slats and a dowel is placed through each of the holes. The dowel is preferably a wooden rod that is secured in the hole with wood glue. Alternatively, the dowels may be constructed from metal and have threaded ends that receive threaded end caps. The end caps are placed over the ends of the dowel to firmly secure the wooden slats together. The design provides improved rigidly and reduces the likelihood of portions of the fan blade breaking loose. The improved rigidity further allows the use of softer, less dangerous and less expensive materials to be used in the construction of the fan blade.
