When the transmission shaft 135 passing through the rotation hole 1421 is vibrated and deflected to one side of the correcting member 142, the transmission shaft 135 compresses the annular correction groove 1422 along the deflection direction, and the annular correction groove 1422 is made of flexible material and has a groove-shaped structure, so as to have a reaction force to push the transmission shaft 135 back to the original position, so that the transmission shaft 135 can well receive the torque output by the motor 113, and the wind wheel 132 is driven to rotate smoothly.

Referring to fig. 6 and 9, a bearing groove 1423 is further formed in the rotation hole 1421, an oil-containing bearing 144 is disposed in the bearing groove 1423, and the transmission shaft 135 passes through a bearing hole (not shown) of the oil-containing bearing 144 while passing through the rotation hole 1421. Through the oil-containing bearing 144, the transmission shaft 135 can well rotate, and the transmission shaft 135 is separated from the rotation hole 1421, so that friction between the transmission shaft 135 and the rotation hole 1421 is avoided, and the correcting element 142 is damaged.

Referring to fig. 9, the bearing groove 1423 includes two openings 1425 and a groove body 1426 disposed between the two openings 1425, the cross-sectional area of the groove body 1426 is larger than the cross-sectional area of the opening 1425, the oil-containing bearing 144 is disposed in the groove body 1426, so that the oil-containing bearing 144 is difficult to separate from the bearing groove 1423, and structural stability is maintained, so that the oil-containing bearing 1423 is stably engaged with the transmission shaft 135 for transmission.

The connecting portion 1432 is provided with a plurality of engaging pieces 1433, and the engaging pieces 1433 are sequentially arranged clockwise or counterclockwise. The connection portion 1432 is configured to be engaged with the connection portion 1432 of the docking member 143 of the docking mechanism 141. When the docking member 143 is driven to rotate by the transmission shaft 135, the docking member 143 can drive the docking member 143 of the docking mechanism 141 adjacent to the docking member 143 to rotate, so as to drive the transmission shaft 135 of the adjacent fan assembly 130, which is inserted on the docking member 143, to rotate, and further drive the wind wheel 132 of the adjacent fan assembly 130 to rotate.

After the docking mechanism related to the tower fan is specified, taking the tower fan shown in fig. 1 as an example, the arrangement position and the arrangement manner of the docking mechanism in the tower fan are specifically described. Specifically, referring to fig. 1, two adjacent fan assemblies are referred to as a first fan assembly 150 and a second fan assembly 160, a docking mechanism disposed on the first fan assembly 150 is referred to as a first docking mechanism 151, a docking mechanism disposed on the second fan assembly 160 is referred to as a second docking mechanism 161, and the first docking mechanism 151 and the second docking mechanism 161 are connected to form a docking assembly 140.

Referring to fig. 5, 6 and 9, the first wind wheel 152 of the first fan assembly 150 is provided with a first transmission shaft 153, and the first transmission shaft 153 sequentially passes through a rotation hole 1541 on the first correcting member 154 and a bearing hole on the first oil-containing bearing 156 of the first docking mechanism 151, and extends into a connection hole 1551 of the first docking member 155; the second wind wheel 162 of the second fan assembly 160 is provided with a second transmission shaft 163, and the second transmission shaft 163 sequentially passes through a rotation hole 1641 on the second correcting member 164 of the second docking mechanism 161 and a bearing hole of the second oil-containing bearing 166, and extends into a connection hole 1651 of the second docking member 165.

Referring to fig. 6 and 8, the plurality of locking tabs 1553 of the first docking member 155 are disposed in a clockwise direction, and the plurality of locking tabs 1653 of the second docking member 165 are disposed in a counterclockwise direction. The connecting portion of the first docking member 155 is opposite to the connecting portion of the second docking member 165, and the plurality of engaging pieces 1553 of the first docking member 155 are engaged with the plurality of engaging pieces 1653 of the second docking member 165, so that the first docking member 155 is linked with the second docking member 165, that is, the first docking member 155 can drive the second docking member 165 to rotate, or the second docking member 165 can drive the first docking member 155 to rotate. Preferably, a connecting wall 1554 is disposed on the outer side of the clamping piece 1553 of the first docking member 155, and the connecting wall 1554 is sequentially connected with the plurality of clamping pieces 1553 of the first docking member 155, so as to maintain the structural stability of the first docking member 155 and facilitate stable clamping with the second docking member 165.

In an exemplary embodiment of the present utility model, referring to fig. 1 and 3, the first fan assembly 150 is closer to the base 110 than the second fan assembly 160, and after the first transmission shaft 153 of the first fan assembly 150 receives the torque output by the motor 113, the first transmission shaft 153 outputs the torque to the second transmission shaft 163 of the second fan assembly 160 through the docking assembly 140, so that the second transmission shaft 163 rotates.

Specifically, referring to fig. 9, since the first transmission shaft 153 is inserted into the connection hole 1551 of the first docking member 155, when the first transmission shaft 153 rotates, the first transmission shaft 153 drives the first wind wheel 152 of the first fan assembly 150 to rotate, and the first transmission shaft 153 also drives the first docking member 155 to rotate; because the first butt joint member 155 is clamped with the second butt joint member 165, the first butt joint member 155 drives the second butt joint member 165 to rotate; because the second transmission shaft 163 of the second fan assembly 160 is inserted into the connection hole 1651 of the second docking member 165, the second docking member 165 drives the second transmission shaft 163 to rotate, and the second transmission shaft 163 drives the second wind wheel 162 of the second fan assembly 160 to rotate.

Since the first transmission shaft 153 and the second transmission shaft 163 are not directly connected, but indirectly transmitted through the first docking member 155 and the second docking member 165, when the first transmission shaft 153 and the second transmission shaft 163 transmit torque, the first axis may be deviated due to vibration, so that the first transmission shaft 153 and the second transmission shaft 163 cannot transmit torque well.

Specifically, when the fan assembly 130 is docked, it may happen that the transmission shaft 135 is offset from the first axis, but because the transmission shaft 135 is inserted into the correcting member 142, the transmission shaft 135 will apply a moment to compress the annular aligning groove 1422 of the correcting member 142 in the offset direction thereof, so that the annular aligning groove 1422 is deformed. Because the correcting element 142 is made of flexible material, the annular correcting groove 1422 generates a reaction force opposite to the deviation direction of the transmission shaft 135 after being extruded and deformed by the transmission shaft 135, and the transmission shaft 135 is rebounded to the first axis, so that the transmission shaft 135 is reset, and good transmission torque of the transmission shaft 135 is facilitated. And the correcting element 142 can counteract vibration and noise generated by the dislocation of the transmission shaft 135.

Among the plurality of fan assemblies 130 of the fan 120 of the tower fan 100, the butt joint assemblies 140 are disposed between two adjacent fan assemblies 130, so that the plurality of fan assemblies 130 are mutually butt-jointed to form the fan 120.
