In the illustrated embodiment, the mounting block 66 protrudes from the surface of the neck mount 12 such that the mounting block 66 has a thickness that increases the structural strength of the mounting block 66 while facilitating a reduction in the thickness of the entire neck mount sidewall. In other embodiments, however, the mounting block 66 may be flush with the surface of the neck brace 12 or recessed relative to the surface of the neck brace 12. In the illustrated embodiment, the mounting block 66 is circumferentially grooved (see fig. 7) on its outer periphery such that the mounting block 66 is formed in an hourglass-like configuration with two large ends and a small middle, i.e., the cross-sectional dimension of the two ends of the mounting block 66 is greater than the cross-sectional dimension of the middle portion. The mount 66 includes a first mounting surface 68 facing the housing 44, and the housing 44 includes a second mounting surface 70 facing the mount 66. When the housing 44 is rotatably mounted to the mounting block 66, the first mounting surface 68 is immediately adjacent to the second mounting surface 70. The term immediately adjacent in this embodiment means that the two are in contact or at a small distance, which may be chosen for example in the range of 0.8-2.5 mm.
In the illustrated embodiment, the mount 66 includes an outer ring portion 72 and a central portion 74. The outer ring part 72 and the central part 74 are protruded from the surface of the neck mount 12 to have a certain thickness, so that the mounting strength of the second air outlet part 16 can be enhanced. The first mounting surface 68 is provided on the center portion 74. The central portion 74 is provided with a mounting hole 76 and the housing 44 is rotatably engaged with the mounting hole 74 by a connecting shaft 78.

A screw hole 80 is provided in the coupling shaft 78, and after the coupling shaft 78 is inserted into the mounting hole 76 of the central portion 74, a bolt 82 is screwed into the screw hole 80 from the other side of the central portion 74 (the side located in the first receiving chamber 26) to prevent the coupling shaft 78 from being detached from the mounting hole 76. The outer diameter of the connecting shaft 78 is slightly smaller than the diameter of the mounting hole 76, so that the connecting shaft 78 can rotate in the mounting hole 76. Since the second mounting surface 70 of the housing 44 is in close proximity to the first mounting surface 68 of the central portion 74, the portion of the connecting shaft 78 between the two mounting surfaces 68, 70 is short, i.e., the moment arm is short, so that a user experiences a small moment of deflection on the connecting shaft 78 when the user normally dials the housing 44 or the housing 44 is subjected to an accidental impact, thereby greatly reducing the risk of breaking the connecting shaft 78. The first mounting surface 68 and the second mounting surface 78 may not be disposed in close proximity if this lower moment of deflection is not sought or if other designs reduce the risk of breakage of the connecting shaft.
In the above embodiment, the connecting shaft 78 is an element fixed to the bottom wall 52. The connecting shaft 78 and the shaft tube 60 on either side of the bottom wall 52 may be a unitary tubular member to which the bottom wall 52 is fixedly attached. The connecting shaft 78 and the shaft tube 60 can also be integrally formed elements with the bottom wall 52. In other embodiments, the connecting shaft 78 may be an element on the central portion 74, i.e., the connecting shaft 78 is rotatably inserted into the housing 44. Alternatively, the bolt 82 also serves as a part of the connecting shaft. Therefore, the form of the connecting shaft between the housing 44 and the center portion 74 is various and is not limited to the structure shown in the drawings.
In the illustrated embodiment, a through hole 84 is provided between the central portion 74 and the outer ring portion 72. When the second air outlet portion 16 is installed, an annular gap 86 is formed between the outer annular portion 72 and the bottom wall 52 of the housing 44. The first receiving cavity 26 of the first air outlet portion 14 is in fluid communication with the through hole 84, the through hole 84 is in fluid communication with the slit 86, and the slit 86 serves as the other part of the first air inlet 32 of the first air outlet portion 14. Thus, the first air outlet portion 14 is provided with the first air inlet 32 at the inner side in addition to the first air inlet 32 formed at the outer side of the end portion 24 of the neck wearing frame 12, so that the air inlet amount is increased, and the air outlet amount is increased accordingly. Alternatively, at least a portion of the first wind inlet 32 of the first wind outlet portion 14 is disposed at the outer side, and the gap 86 serves as another portion of the first wind inlet 32. Of course, in other embodiments, the first air inlet 32 may be provided only outside the end portion 24, and the first air inlet 32 may not be provided inside the end portion 24.
Referring to fig. 7 and 8 together, in the illustrated embodiment, a rotational alignment structure is provided between the first mounting surface 68 and the second mounting surface 70, disposed about the mounting aperture 76 of the central portion 74. The rotary positioning structure can selectively position the second air outlet portion 16 at a plurality of different circumferential positions. In the illustrated embodiment, the rotational detent structure includes a plurality of detents 88 and at least one spring-loaded detent projection 90. A plurality of detents 88 are provided on the second mounting surface 70 of the bottom wall 52 of the housing 44 and are spaced apart in the rotational direction of the housing 44, and spring-loaded detent projections 90 are provided on the first mounting surface 68 of the central portion 74. The spring-loaded positioning projections 90 are adapted to selectively cooperate with the plurality of positioning slots 88 to selectively position the second air outlet portion 16 at a plurality of different circumferential positions in the rotational direction of the housing 44. In the illustrated embodiment, the detents 88 are evenly spaced in the direction of rotation. The number and spacing of the positioning slots 88 is determined by design requirements, and the increased number of positioning slots 88 can correspondingly bring more stages of angular positioning, thereby bringing more choices and finer angular adjustment for users. The illustrated embodiment includes one spring-loaded locating tab 90, but in other embodiments, more than one spring-loaded locating tab 90 may be included.
The first mounting surface 68 is provided with a recess 92, and the recess 92 has a recess bottom 94 and a recess opening 96. The at least one spring-loaded detent projection 90 includes a detent 98, a spring 100, and a stop 102. The retainer 98 is positioned within the recess 92 and partially exposed from the recess opening 96, i.e., partially beyond the first mounting surface 68, to snap into a retainer slot 88 therein. The resilient member 100 is disposed at the recess bottom 94 and resiliently biases the positioning member 98 toward the recess opening 96. The stopper 102 is disposed in the groove opening 96 to prevent the positioning member 98 from separating from the groove 92. When the positioning member 98 faces the flat surface portion of the bottom wall 52, the positioning member 98 is pressed into the recess 92 by the flat surface portion, and the elastic member 100 is compressed. When the housing 44 is rotated to a position in which the positioning slot 88 is aligned with the positioning member 98, the positioning member 98 is pushed into the positioning slot 88 by the elastic restoring force of the elastic member 100, and positioning between the housing 44 and the mounting seat 66 is performed. As the housing 44 continues to rotate, the edge of the detent 88 of the bottom wall 52 slides over the arcuate surface of the detent 98, pressing the detent 98 into the recess 92. Specifically, the surface of the positioning element 98 facing the second mounting surface 70 is an arc-shaped surface, which may be a cylindrical or spherical body with an end surface in an arc-shaped surface, and in this embodiment, the positioning element 98 is a metal ball. An example of the elastic member 100 may be a compression spring. The retainer 102 allows the retainer 98 to be exposed from the recess 92 but prevents the retainer ball 98 from completely exiting the recess 92, and may be, for example, an element having an internal bore with a diameter smaller than the diameter of the retainer 98, such as a ring. In some embodiments, the limiting member 102 may not be provided. The end of the elastic member 100 abutting against the positioning member 98 is also fixedly connected to the positioning member 98, so as to prevent the positioning member 98 from completely separating from the groove 92.
Although in the above-described embodiment the positioning slot 88 is provided on the second mounting surface 70 and the positioning projection 90 is provided on the first mounting surface 68, in other embodiments the positioning slot 88 and the positioning projection 90 may be interchanged. Accordingly, the positioning groove 88 is provided on one of the first mounting surface 68 and the second mounting surface 70, and the positioning projection 90 is provided on the other of the first mounting surface 68 and the second mounting surface 70.

Fig. 9 to 21 illustrate a neck fan 210 according to another embodiment of the present invention.
Referring to fig. 9 to 11, the neck fan 210 of the present embodiment includes a neck bracket 212, a first air outlet portion 214 and a second air outlet portion 216.
The neck-worn support 212 has a curved shape suitable for wearing on the neck of a human body, and is provided with a space for accommodating batteries and other elements inside, and a flow passage through which a gas flow flows. In the illustrated embodiment, the neck wear brace 212 has two brace portions 218, 220 that are rotatable relative to each other, the two brace portions 218, 220 being connected by a rotating structure 22. The two leg portions 218, 220 are symmetrical about an axis of symmetry D. The rotating structure 22 defines an axis of rotation X, and the axis of symmetry D is spaced from and parallel to the axis of rotation X. In other embodiments, the neck wear support 212 may not have the rotation structure 22, i.e. the mutual rotation function.
In the illustrated embodiment, the first air outlet portion 214 is provided on both of the two frame portions 218, 220 of the neck wear frame 212. In other embodiments, the first air outlet portion 214 may be disposed on only one of the support portions. The neck-worn support 212 has two end portions 224, and the second air outlet portion 216 is provided on the inner side of each end portion 224 facing the neck of the human body. In other embodiments, the second air outlet portion 216 may be provided at only one of the end portions 224. Moreover, the second air outlet portion 216 can also be disposed at the outer side of the end portion 224 facing away from the neck of the human body. Likewise, in other embodiments, the second air outlet portion 216 may not be disposed at the end portion 224.
Referring to fig. 12 and 13, the first air outlet portion 214 is provided with a first receiving cavity 226 and a first air outlet 228 in fluid communication with the first receiving cavity 226. The first receiving cavity 226 is provided with a first fan 230 therein, and the first air outlet 228 is opened on the neck support 212 of the neck fan 210. Each end 224 of the neck support 212 facing away from the neck of the person is provided with a first inlet opening 232, and the first inlet openings 232 are in fluid communication with the first receiving cavity 226. Thus, when the first fan 230 operates, air is drawn from the first air inlet 232, and the generated air flows through the flow channel in the bracket portion and then is blown out through the first air outlet 228. The first air outlets 228 may be disposed along the extending direction of the frame portions 218 and 220, so that the wind generated by the first fan 230 is blown toward the neck of the human body.
An axle tube 234 is fixedly disposed within the end 224 of the neck mount 212. The first fan 230 includes a stator assembly 236 and a rotor assembly 238. Stator assembly 236 is secured to shaft tube 234 for energizing to generate a magnetic field. The rotor assembly 238 includes a fan wheel 238A, and a permanent magnet such as a magnet is fixedly mounted inside the fan wheel 238A. The rotor assembly 238 also includes a shaft 240 fixed relative to the impeller 238A, the shaft 240 being rotatably supported within the shaft tube 234. Stator assembly 236 is energized to generate a magnetic field that magnetically drives the permanent magnets to rotate, thereby rotating impeller 238A.
Referring to fig. 14 to 16, the second air outlet portion 216 includes a housing 244 having a second receiving cavity 242, and a second fan 246 received in the second receiving cavity 242. The housing 244 is provided with a second intake 248 and a second outtake 250 communicating with the second receiving chamber 242. The housing 244 is mounted to the end 224 of the neck mount 212 and is rotatable relative to the end 224 to adjust the position of the second outlet vent 250.
Specifically, in the illustrated embodiment, the housing 244 includes an end wall 256 and an annular side wall 258, the second intake vent 248 is disposed on the end wall 256, and the second exhaust vent 250 is disposed on the annular side wall 258. Second fan 246 includes a stator assembly 262 and a rotor assembly 264. Rotor assembly 264 includes a permanent magnet 264A in magnetic driving engagement with stator assembly 262, and a fan wheel 264B fixed relative to permanent magnet 264A. The permanent magnet 264A may be a magnet, such as a permanent magnet ring, disposed inside the fan wheel 264B. Rotor assembly 264 also includes a shaft 265 that is fixed relative to fan wheel 264B. Stator assembly 262 is energized to generate a magnetic field that magnetically drives permanent magnet 264A to rotate, which in turn drives fan wheel 264B to rotate. The user can adjust the position of the second air outlet 248 in the rotating direction by dialing the housing 244, i.e. adjust the blowing angle of the second air outlet 248. In the illustrated embodiment, the second air outlet portion 216 is mainly used for blowing air toward the face, so that the air outlet angle of the second air outlet portion 216 can be adjusted by moving the housing 244, so that the air can be blown to different parts of the face.
Referring also to fig. 17, in the illustrated embodiment, the neck mount 212 has a mounting 266 on a side wall thereof, and the housing 244 of the second outlet portion 216 is rotatably mounted to the mounting 266. The mounting base 266 may be an integrally formed part of the neck brace 12 or may be a separate part that is mounted to the neck brace 212, as the present invention is not limited in this respect.
In the illustrated embodiment, the mounting 266 protrudes from the surface of the neck mount 212 such that the mounting 266 has a thickness that increases the structural strength of the mounting 266 while facilitating a reduction in the thickness of the entire neck mount sidewall. In other embodiments, however, the mounting 266 may be flush with the surface of the neck brace 212 or recessed relative to the surface of the neck brace 212. In the illustrated embodiment, the mounting base 266 is circumferentially grooved (see fig. 10) on its outer periphery such that the mounting base 266 is formed in an hourglass-like configuration with large ends and a small middle, i.e., the mounting base 66 has a cross-sectional dimension at both ends that is greater than the cross-sectional dimension at the middle.
The mount 266 is fixedly provided with the shaft tube 260, and the stator assembly 262 of the second fan 246 is fixedly installed outside the shaft tube 260. The rotating shaft 265 of the rotor assembly 264 of the second fan 246 is rotatably supported in the shaft tube 260. That is, in this embodiment, the second fan 246 of the second air outlet portion 216 is mounted on the mounting base 266, and therefore mounted on the neck bracket 212, and when the user rotates the housing 244 to adjust the air outlet angle, the second fan 246 will not be rotated, thereby improving the reliability and the service life of the structure. In the illustrated embodiment, the mount 266 includes an outer ring portion 272 and a central portion 274. An outer ring portion 272 and a central portion 274 project from the surface of the neck mount 212, and the axle tube 260 is disposed on the central portion 274, and in some embodiments, the housing 244 is rotatably coupled to the outer ring portion 272.
Referring to fig. 15 to 17, the housing 244 of the second air outlet portion 216 is rotatably mounted to the mounting base 266 by a support bracket 300. The support 300 is fixed to the mount 266 and thus may also be considered part of the mount 266. The housing 244 is rotatably connected to the support frame 300 and covers the periphery of the support frame 300. The second fan 246 defines an axial direction, and the support 300 is fixedly coupled at an axially inner end to the mounting block 266 and rotatably coupled at an axially outer end to the housing 244. In the illustrated embodiment, a mounting block 302 is disposed at a central portion of the axially outer end of the support frame 300, a connecting hole 310 is disposed in the end wall 256 of the housing 244, and a locking member 312 is fixedly connected to the mounting block 302 after passing through the connecting hole 310 of the housing 224. In the illustrated embodiment, a connecting tube 304 protrudes axially outward from the middle of the mounting platform 302, the connecting tube 304 has a threaded hole 306 therein, and the locking member 312 is a screw 312 that passes through the connecting hole 310 of the housing 244 and then is screwed into the threaded hole 306 of the connecting tube 304. The locking member 312 has a head portion 314 and a shank portion 315 extending from the head portion 314, and the aperture of the coupling hole 310 is smaller than the diameter of the head portion 314 but larger than the diameter of the shank portion 315. Thus, the locking member 312 restricts the housing 244 from axially disengaging the support bracket 300, but allows the housing 244 to axially rotate.
Referring to fig. 15 and 16, the mounting block 302 is provided with a plurality of detents 308 around the connecting tube 304 in the annular region around the connecting tube 304. The inside of the end wall 256 of the housing 244 is provided with a spring-loaded locating boss 320. The positioning projection 320 is adapted to selectively cooperate with the plurality of positioning slots 308 to selectively position the second air outlet 250 of the housing 244 at a plurality of different circumferential positions in a rotational direction of the housing 244 when the housing 244 is rotated. In the illustrated embodiment, the detents 308 are evenly spaced along the direction of rotation. The number and spacing of the positioning slots 308 are determined according to design requirements, and the increased number of the positioning slots 308 can correspondingly bring more stages of angular positioning, thereby bringing more choices and finer angular adjustment for users.
The inner side of the end wall 256 of the housing 244 is provided with a recess 316, and the positioning projection 320 is received in the recess 316. The groove 316 has a groove bottom and a groove opening 318 opposite the groove bottom. In the illustrated embodiment, the recess 316 is formed by a cylindrical member attached to the inside of the end wall 256, the end of the cylindrical member facing the holder 300 being open, forming the recess opening 318. The positioning protrusion 320 includes a positioning member 322, an elastic member 324, and a stopper 326. The positioning member 322 is disposed in the recess 316 and partially exposed from the recess 316 to be snapped into one of the positioning slots 308. The elastic member 324 is disposed at the bottom of the recess and elastically biases the positioning member 322 toward the opening 318 of the recess. The position-limiting element 326 is disposed in the opening 318 to prevent the positioning element 322 from separating from the groove 316. When the positioning member 322 faces the flat surface portion of the mounting block 302, the positioning member 322 is pressed into the recess 316 by the flat surface portion, and the elastic member 324 is compressed. When the housing 244 rotates to a position where the positioning slot 308 is aligned with the positioning member 322, the positioning member 322 is pushed into the positioning slot 308 by the elastic restoring force of the elastic member 324, so as to form a positioning between the housing 244 and the supporting frame 300. As the housing 244 continues to rotate, the edge of the detent 308 of the mounting platform 302 slides over the arcuate surface of the positioning member 322, pressing the positioning member 322 into the recess 316. Specifically, the surface of the positioning element 322 facing the mounting platform 302 is an arc surface, which may be a cylindrical body or a spherical body with an end surface being an arc surface, in this embodiment, the positioning element 322 is a metal ball. An example of the elastic member 324 may be a compression spring. The retainer 326 allows the positioning member 322 to be exposed from the recess 316 but prevents the positioning ball 322 from completely escaping from the recess 316, and may be, for example, a member having an inner bore with a diameter smaller than the diameter of the positioning member 322, such as a ring. In other embodiments, the limiting member 326 may not be provided. The end of the elastic member 324 abutting against the positioning member 322 is also fixedly connected to the positioning member 322, so as to prevent the positioning member 322 from completely separating from the recess 316.
Although in the above-described embodiment the detent 308 is provided on the mounting table and the detent projection 320 is provided inside the end wall 256 of the housing 244, in other embodiments the positions of the detent 308 and the detent projection 320 may be interchanged. Thus, the detent 308 is provided on one of the mounting block 302 and the end wall 256 of the housing 244, and the detent projection 320 is provided on the other of the mounting block 302 and the end wall 256 of the housing 244.
Through the rotation positioning structure that sets up spring-loaded's location arch and constant head tank between shell 244 and support frame 300, can selectively fix a position the second air outlet 250 of shell 244 in a plurality of different circumferential positions, convenience of customers adjusts and fixes a position the air outlet position to can provide angle perception feedback for the user in the adjustment process.
The axial inner end of the support frame 300 is provided with a base 350, and the base 350 is annular and is fixedly connected with the outer annular portion 272 of the mounting seat 266. Support frame 300 includes a plurality of support bars 352, each support bar 352 being located outside of impeller 264B and connected between base 350 and mounting block 302, each support bar 352 having an axial extension 354 and a radial extension 356, axial extension 354 extending axially from base 350, radial extension 356 extending radially from an axially outer end of axial extension 354 to fixedly connect with mounting block 302. That is, these support bars 352 collectively support the mounting platform 302 beyond the axially outer end of the fan wheel 264B. In the illustrated embodiment, four support bars 352 are provided, evenly arranged in the circumferential direction, but in other embodiments more or less than 4 support bars 352 may be provided. In the illustrated embodiment, the axial extension 354 is coupled to the base 350 at a location closer to the inner edge of the base 350 (see fig. 15), the outer edge of the base 350 is smoothly coupled to the outer edge of the mounting block 266, and the outer edge of the end of the housing 244 facing the base 350 is flush with the outer edge of the base 266, thereby providing a smooth coupling between the base 350, the housing 22, and the mounting block 266 (see fig. 10).
In the illustrated embodiment, a through-hole 284 is provided between central portion 274 and outer annular portion 272 of mount 266, through-hole 284 being disposed around shaft tube 260. The first receiving cavity 226 of the first air outlet portion 214 is in fluid communication with the through hole 284. The axially inner end of the annular sidewall 258 and the base 350 may form a gap in the axial direction, and the through hole 284 is in fluid communication with the gap, and the gap may be used as another part of the first intake opening 232 of the first air outlet portion 214. Thus, the first air outlet portion 214 is provided with the first air inlet 232 at the inner side in addition to the first air inlet 232 formed at the outer side of the end portion 224 of the neck-worn support 212, so that the air inlet amount is increased, and the air outlet amount is increased accordingly. Alternatively, at least a portion of the first intake opening 232 of the first air outlet portion 214 is disposed at the outer side, and the gap between the annular sidewall 258 and the base 350 serves as another portion of the first intake opening 232. In some embodiments, when the base 350 is not disposed between the axially inner end (i.e., the end surface) of the annular sidewall 258 and the inner side surface of the neck mount 212, a gap is formed between the axially inner end (i.e., the end surface) of the annular sidewall 258 and the inner side surface of the neck mount 212, the through hole 284 is in fluid communication with the gap, and at least a portion of the first air inlet 232 of the first air outlet portion 214 is disposed outside the neck mount 212, and the gap serves as another portion of the first air inlet 232.
Of course, in other embodiments, the first air inlet 232 may be disposed only outside the end portion 224, and the first air inlet 232 may not be disposed inside the end portion 224.
Although the housing 244 of the second air outlet portion 216 is rotatably connected to the mounting seat 266 by the supporting frame 300 in this embodiment, in other embodiments, the housing 244 may be directly connected to the mounting seat 266 without the supporting frame 300.
