Definitions

  • the invention relates to a fan assembly of a diagonal and / or axial fan.
  • Such fan units are used as part of a filter fan for industrial equipment, such.
  • the fan assemblies can be designed both as a blowing fan assembly and as a sucking fan assembly.
  • the fan assembly includes a fan having an axial fan or diagonal fan as a fluid drive of the fan assembly and is bolted to a filter frame via a mounting flange of the housing of the fan assembly.
  • the housing of the fan assembly on both sides of a protective grid.
  • the housing is divided perpendicularly to the axis of the fan wheel in the region of the housing edge into at least two detachably interconnected housing parts, the motor mounting part and the air inlet part.
  • Both the engine mount part and the air intake part are each formed in one piece and comprise a protective grid structure.
  • the protective grid structure of the motor mounting part has a motor mount with fastening means for fastening the fan.
  • the division of the housing in two halves together with the one-piece design allows a particularly simple installation of the fan in the housing of the fan assembly.
  • the housing and the fan assembly are particularly simple and inexpensive to manufacture and the design of the fan assembly is designed to be particularly compact.
  • Generic fan assemblies can be arranged like a cassette to an air treatment device.
  • an air treatment device for example, from the US patent US 8,398,365 B2
  • Such an air treatment device is known in which a plurality of fan assemblies are arranged with rectangular outer contours in the form of an air treatment device.
  • the rectangular outer contour makes it possible to arrange the fan units in the radial direction as close as possible to each other and thus to increase the packing density of the fan units.
  • a disadvantage of such air treatment devices is the noise emission.
  • the cited US patent teaches to cover the boundaries of the flow channel with soundproofing materials such as glass fiber reinforced plastic and foam. Fan assemblies with such panels but are expensive to manufacture. In addition, such panels devour space, so that the external dimension of the fan assembly increases and thus the packing density is reduced.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a fan assembly with minimized noise, wherein the external dimension of the fan assembly is minimized.
  • the fan assembly has a housing provided with an inlet opening and an outlet opening.
  • a fan is accommodated, wherein the fan may be an axial or radial fan.
  • the fan promotes the air at least in the axial direction.
  • the housing is divided perpendicular to the central axis of the fan into at least two interconnected housing parts, namely the motor mounting part and the air inlet part.
  • the housing forms a running chamber in which the blades of the fan are rotatably received about the axis of the fan.
  • the housing has a circumferential, radially extending edge, in the region of which the housing has an in Axial direction of the fan lying thickness B has.
  • the motor mount part has a dimension R as the maximum extension in the edge area in the axial direction of the fan. Furthermore, the running chamber has an extent in the axial direction of the fan in the amount of the dimension L, while the extension of the air inlet part in the axial direction of the fan in the region of the running chamber has a dimension T.
  • the diameter of the running chamber is about 1.04 times the outer diameter of the fan wheel. This creates a gap between the outside diameter of the impeller and the diameter of the barrel chamber of about 2% of the outside diameter of the fan, further minimizing the noise emission of the fan during operation.
  • the housing has a substantially rectangular outer contour in plan view.
  • fan assemblies according to the invention can be arranged like a cassette to an air treatment device, so that a plurality of fan assemblies with rectangular outer contours can be arranged in the form of an air treatment device.
  • the rectangular outer contour makes it possible to arrange the fan units in the radial direction as close as possible to each other and thus to increase the packing density of the fan units.
  • the motor mounting part has an immersion dimension E and the air inlet part likewise to have the immersion dimension E, the immersion depth a being the ratio of the immersion dimension E to the maximum axial extent C of the housing in the axial direction of the ventilator in the range of 0.2 to 0.35 is.
  • E a * C, where 0.2 ⁇ a ⁇ 0.35.
  • the ratio of maximum outer dimension K of the housing to the impeller diameter D is at most 1.15.
  • K denotes the outer diameter in the case of a circular outer geometry of the housing.
  • a substantially square outer contour of the housing K denotes the edge dimension of the longest side of the housing.
  • the housing has a peripheral wall ring, wherein the wall ring has a circumferential Holhlhunt, hereinafter also referred to as a hollow chamber ring.
  • the wall ring is formed by the edge region of the air inlet part and / or the motor mounting part. Due to the design as a hollow chamber ring on the one hand a high mechanical stability of the fan assembly is given, while on the other hand, the noise emission during operation is further minimized.
  • Fig. 1 shows a section through a fan assembly according to the invention.
  • the fan assembly 100 has a housing 110 provided with an inlet port 131 and an exhaust port 121.
  • the housing 110 is designed as a housing with a substantially square outer contour.
  • an axial fan 150 is received, which promotes the air at least in the axial direction.
  • the housing 110 is designed in two parts, wherein it has a dividing plane substantially perpendicular to the axis XX of the fan 150.
  • the two interconnected housing parts are the one hand
  • the housing 110 forms in its center a running chamber 111 in which the wings 151 of the axial fan 150 can rotate about the axis XX of the axial fan 150.
  • the housing 110 forms a circumferential edge region 122, 132, in the region of which the housing 110 has a thickness B lying in the axial direction XX of the axial fan 150.
  • the motor mounting part 120 has a dimension R as the maximum extent in the edge region 122 in the axial direction XX of the axial fan 150.
  • the running chamber 111 has an extent in the axial direction XX of the axial fan 150 in the amount of the dimension L, while the extension of the air inlet part 130 in the axial direction XX of the axial fan 150 in the running chamber 111 has a dimension T.
  • the ratio of measure B to measure R is the ratio of measures L to T in the range of 0.9 to 1.2.
  • B / R b * L / T with 0.9 ⁇ b ⁇ 1.2.
  • This geometry ratio minimizes the noise emissions of the axial fan 150, so that no existing noise emissions must be damped to achieve a quiet running noise.
  • the size of the fan assembly 100 can be minimized.
  • a plurality of fan assembly units 100 with maximum packing density can be installed next to one another in the form of a cassette.
  • the diameter D of the fan wheel can be maximized in relation to the outer dimension K of the housing 110, whereby the fan power is also maximized in relation to the required area of the fan assembly.
  • this ratio is 1.15.
  • the diameter D K of the running chamber 111 is 4% larger than the outside diameter D of the fan wheel. This creates a gap between the outer diameter of the fan and the diameter of the running chamber D K of about 2% of the outer diameter of the fan, whereby the noise emission of the fan 150 is further minimized in operation.
  • the housing 110 has a circumferential wall ring with a square outer contour, wherein the wall ring has a circumferential Holhlhunt 115. Due to the design as a hollow chamber ring on the one hand a high mechanical stability of the fan assembly 100 is given against bending and twisting, while on the other hand, the noise emission during operation is further minimized.
