Definitions
- Such fan modules are used in electrical devices kind used. Computer systems in particular require cooling such fan modules to prevent the power supply components from overheating and to prevent the processors. An outage the fan will inevitably overheat the Device and may cause irreparable damage.
- the design of a fan module according to the invention enables that this by plugging into a designated one Fan housing can be attached and connected. Thereby is a quick and easy replacement of this component possible.
- the contact surfaces on the side surface need very little space, so that this solution even for volume critical Applications can be realized.
- An essential one The point of view is that in addition to the possibility of insertion also the electrical connection to the drive of the Fan is manufactured and so a manual wiring eliminated. Compared to plug contacts, this is an inexpensive one Solution that also has advantages in terms of space.
- spring or sliding contacts are such arranged that in the inserted state of the fan modules the spring or sliding contacts with the contact surfaces of the fan modules interact.
- spring or sliding contacts especially for large computer systems are spring or sliding contacts for several fan modules arranged on a common circuit board.
- FIG. 1 shows a fan module 10 according to the invention. It has a fixed fan element 1 and rotatably mounted movable fan element 2. This has fan blades 3, which when the movable fan element rotates 2 generate an air flow. On an outside Side surface 4 of the fixed fan element 1 are contact surfaces 5 arranged. These serve to supply the operating voltage for the electric motor, which is the movable fan element drives. You can also use these contact areas 5 also information, for example about the speed of the Fan are transmitted.
- there is a locking element in the embodiment of Figure 1 a spring tongue 6, designed to fit the fan module in a correspondingly shaped Lock the fan housing.
- the fan module has a status LED 7, by means of which it can be seen whether the Fan module is working properly, or whether an abnormal operating condition is present.
- FIG. 2 shows several fan modules 10 according to the invention installed in a fan housing 9.
- three fan modules are arranged in two rows, wherein in one row 11 two fan modules 10 in a row are switched and in the other row 12 only one fan module is provided.
- a housing cover that closes the fan housing can and at the same time fixes the fan modules in their position. Latching means 6 on the individual fan modules 10 are like this entbehrtlich.
- a partition 13 between the two rows 11 and 12 provided that at the same time a circuit board for attachment of spring contacts.
- the spring contacts are for that provided with the contact surfaces 5 inserted fan modules 10 to form an electrical connection.
- To the the Printed circuit board 13 opposite housing walls are in a low-cost version provided further spring elements, which exert a force on the fan modules such that the Contact surfaces 5 and the corresponding spring or sliding contacts be pressed together.
- a status LED 7 is provided in each of the fan modules 10.
- the information is via the contact surfaces 5 via the operating state of the fan modules 10 to one on one Transfer control electronics located computer. If a service technician can report an error there recognize at a glance at the installed fan modules 10, which of the fan modules 10 is defective. It is advantageous that the same fan modules on both sides of the fan housing 9 can be used because they are rotationally symmetrical.
- the Fan modules 10 are therefore "hot-pluggable". Because the described Contacts are very space-saving, leads the invention Design with its advantages, however, not one Expansion of the construction volume of the fan housing 9.
- FIG. 4 shows a second embodiment of an inventive one Fan module shown.
- the embodiment of Figure 3 is not a contact area load-bearing circuit board provided, the circuit board with With the help of sheets attached to the fixed fan element but a contact pin clip 42 is provided, which is attached to the fixed fan element 1.
- the Contact pin clip is in a preferred embodiment as Plastic injection molded part, making it easy to manufacture and is inexpensive. Another advantage is that the dimensions of the fan modules with attached Contact pin clips 42 are only slightly larger than that of the fan modules without contact pin clips.
- the contact pin clip carries spring-loaded contact pins 41. These Contact pins 41 enable a wide tolerance range reliable electrical contacting of the fan module. The travel of the contact pins 41 is proportional large, so that even with large tolerances of the fan housing and difficult operating conditions (e.g. vibrations) secure contacting is ensured.
- the contact pins are arranged on the pin clip 42 so that they over a connector can be connected to the fan motor can.
- the contact pin clip 42 additionally with two resilient guide and Locking elements 43 equipped at right angles to one middle section of the contact clip are arranged and themselves thus extend to the side surfaces of the fan module.
- the Guide and locking elements take over the leadership of the fan module when inserted into a corresponding fan housing 44. In the fully retracted position, use corresponding locking elements of the fan housing enables what is particularly easy to do is that the locking elements 43 are resilient.
- FIG. 5 is the complete arrangement of two fan modules 4 and a fan housing 44 shown. Accordingly, the fan modules 40 are inserted into the housing 44 that the spring-loaded contact pins on the Bottom are and in the housing with corresponding mating contact surfaces cooperate on a circuit board 46. On the circuit board 46 can then the corresponding connections for controlling and possibly monitoring the fan modules 40 are arranged, the functions being possible here which have already been described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3 are.
