Description

Fan blade structure

Technical Field

The present invention relates to a fan blade structure, and more particularly to a fan blade structure capable of continuously increasing pressure and reducing noise of an air flow.

Background

In recent years, with the development of the electronic industry, the performance of the electronic device is improved, the number of internal chipsets and the operation speed are improved, so that the amount of heat emitted by the electronic device is increased correspondingly, and therefore the heat dissipation fan is applied more and more widely inside the electronic element structure.

Referring to fig. 1A and 1B, a conventional centrifugal fan 1 includes an upper plate 11, a bottom plate 12, an air inlet 13, an air outlet 14, and a fan blade structure 15, wherein a side plate 121 is upwardly surrounded on an outer periphery of the bottom plate 12, the upper plate 11 covers the bottom plate 12, the upper plate 11, the bottom plate 12, and the side plate 21 jointly define a containing space 16 for containing the fan blade structure 15, the fan blade structure 15 is pivoted with a shaft cylinder 122 of the bottom plate 12 through an axis (not shown), and the air inlet 13 and the air outlet 14 are respectively opened on one side of the upper plate 11 and the side plate 121. The fan blade structure 15 includes a hub 151 and a plurality of radial blades 152, the plurality of radial blades 152 are annularly disposed on the outer periphery of the hub 151, each radial blade 152 has a free end 1521, a fixed end 1522 facing the center of the hub 151, a windward surface 1523 and a leeward surface 1524 corresponding to the windward surface 1523, the fixed end 1522 of the plurality of radial blades 152 is fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the hub 151, an air flow channel 157 is defined between the free end 1521 and the inner surface of the side plate 121, the windward surfaces 1523 of the plurality of radial blades 152 are in the same orientation and parallel to each other, and a radial flow channel 156 is formed between every two radial blades 152. Therefore, when the centrifugal fan 1 is operated, the fan blade structure 15 rotates counterclockwise, the plurality of radial blades 152 axially guide the external airflow 17 into the air inlet 13 of the upper plate 11, so that the airflow 17 enters the respective flow channels 156 from the fixed ends 1522 of the plurality of radial blades 152 to be pressurized and flows (is thrown) out from the free ends 1521 into the airflow channel 157 in a radial direction, and flows out from the radial air outlet 14 along the inner surface of the side plate 121.

However, another problem of the conventional centrifugal fan 1 is that when the axial airflow 17 enters the flow channel 156 of each radial blade 152, the pressurizing distance of each radial blade 152 to the airflow 17 is only a short chord length of the radial blade 152, so that the airflow 17 is not pressurized by the radial blade 152 and thrown out in the flow channel 156, and most of the airflow 17 not pressurized is directly thrown out by the free end 1521 of each radial blade 152 and continuously impacts the inner surface of the side plate 121, and then flows out in the airflow channel 157 and toward the air outlet 14, which causes problems of loud noise, loud vibration, and failure to increase the air pressure and air volume of the fan, and also causes problems of power consumption of the centrifugal fan motor. In addition, the conventional plurality of radial blades 152 are formed on the outer circumferential side of the hub 151 in a very dense arrangement, so that the mold opening is not easy in the actual manufacturing, and the relative cost is also increased.
