Abstract:
A centrifugal fan includes an impeller, a motor and a case. The impeller includes a hub and multiple blades. The hub has a center. The blades are connected to the hub and have all respective outmost edges collectively define a circle with the center and a radius R. Each blade has at least one concave cutout. Each concave cutout is equipped with a depth of greater than 0.5 millimeters and an obtuse angle of less than 170 degrees, wherein the obtuse angle is an included angle between an inner edge of the concave cutout and an outer edge of the blade. The motor is secured to the huh and drives the impeller to rotate. The case houses the impeller and the motor.
Abstract:
A blower fan includes a housing arranged to accommodate an impeller, wherein an upper surface portion of the housing includes a motor fixing portion, a peripheral portion, and a plurality of ribs interconnecting the motor fixing portion and the peripheral portion, the upper surface portion including a plurality of air intake ports defined between the motor fixing portion, the peripheral portion and the plurality of ribs being arranged to oppose the impeller; and the peripheral portion includes a peripheral low portion arranged to surround or substantially surround outer peripheries of the air intake ports and positioned lower than upper surfaces of the plurality of ribs and a peripheral high portion provided with rib extension portions continuously extending from the plurality of ribs and positioned higher than an upper surface of the peripheral low portion.
Abstract:
A centrifugal fan includes a fan frame (20), and a stator (30) and a rotor (40) received in the fan frame. The fan frame includes a bottom base (22), an opposite top cover (21) and a side wall (23) interconnecting the bottom base and the top cover. A first air inlet (24a) is defined in the top cover and a second air inlet (24b) is defined in the bottom base. The rotor includes a hub (41) and a plurality of blades (42) extending from an outer periphery of the hub. An air flow channel (48) is formed between an outer periphery of the blades and the side wall of the fan frame. A cylindrical wall (26, 26a) is formed around one of the first air inlet and the second air inlet to guide airflow from the first and second air inlets into the air flow channel and block the airflow in the air flow channel from flowing back towards the first and second air inlets.
Abstract:
A double inlet centrifugal fan includes an impeller and fan inlet port. The impeller has a main plate connected to the drive shaft in a fan casing, fan side plates, and a plurality of blades between the main plate and each of the fan side plates. The fan inlet port has an opening corresponding to the inner diameter of the blades. The blades on the side of the larger pressure loss in the suction air passage to the fan inlet port have a smaller inner diameter than the blades on the side of the smaller pressure loss. This equalizes the total pressure increase in the blades along the drive shaft, resulting in a compact double inlet centrifugal fan capable of supplying the required air flow.
Abstract:
A two sided radial fan draws cooling air into axially opposite ends of a dynamoelectric device drawing the flow of air into one axial end of the device and directing the flow of air over the device exterior surface, and drawing a second flow of air into an opposite axial end of the device and through the interior of the device before redirecting the second flow of air over the exterior of the device. The two sided fan thereby provides greater cooling efficiency to the device without significantly increasing the size of the fan or the device and without significantly increasing the costs or adding additional components to the device construction.

Abstract:
A centrifugal blower apparatus suitable for industrial uses has a least a delivery outlet and at least two fluid inlets disposed on either side of a blower wheel suitable for being rotated by a drive system. Each inlet is associated with a respective control system for controlling the suction flow rte of fluid and is capable of establishing asymmetrical suction flow rates between the inlets. The inlets are fitted with control systems which differ in their mechanical structures and their characteristics concerning fineness of control.
Abstract:
First cooling air (50) enters an engine room (1) through a cooling air inlet port (7a) from the exterior of the engine room (1), and is throttled by a suction tube (8a) after passing heat exchangers such as an intercooler (6a), an oil cooler (6b) and a radiator (6c), followed by entering a centrifugal fan (4). The first cooling air (50) is then blown off toward an outer circumference of the centrifugal fan (4). Second cooling air enters the engine room (1) through cooling air inlet ports (7b, 7b) from the exterior of the engine room (1), and flows around an engine (5), various electric equipments such as an alternator (10), and an oil pan (14) while cooling them. The second cooling air is then throttled by a suction tube (8b) before entering the centrifugal fan (4), and blown off toward the outer circumference of the centrifugal fan (4). Two streams of the first and second cooling air (50, 51) are discharged to the exterior through an exhaust port (9). This arrangement enhances the degree of sealing on the engine (5) side to reduce noise, and improves the effect of cooling the electric equipments (10) for higher reliability of the electric equipments (10).
Abstract:
A cooling system, mounted on the rearward end of a tractor, comprises a pair of fans attached to a common drive shaft disposed on the longitudinal axis of the tractor and a pair of vertically disposed and laterally spaced radiators. A vertically disposed baffle is connected between the radiators to define separate chambers for receiving air from the fans.
Abstract:
An expanding scroll-type blower unit with a fan wheel which discharges air peripherally from an encasing housing and has axial air intakes is provided with sides diverging toward an exit opening that is parallel to the blower axis, and two such blower units are arranged side by side in axially alignment with a motor therebetween operatively connected to both wheels.
