Die Erfindung betrifft eine Ventilatoreinrichtung, mit wenigstens einem Radialventilator, mit einem Ventilatorgehäuse, in dem ein um eine Rotationsachse rotatorisch angetriebenes Laufrad angeordnet ist, wobei das Ventilatorgehäuse eines sich in einer Umfangsrichtung des Laufrads um dieses herum erstreckende mit mehreren bogenförmigen Wandabschnitten ausgestattete Leitwand aufweist, die Luftausblasöffnungen begrenzt, wobei jeder der Luftausblasöffnungen ein bogenförmiger Wandabschnitt des Leitwand zugeordnet ist, wobei das Ventilatorgehäuse eine mit einer Luftansaugöffnung ausgestattete vordere Abdeckplatte und eine bezogen auf die Strömungsrichtung stromab der vorderen Abdeckplatte angeordnete hintere Abdeckplatte aufweist, und wobei um die Leitwand herum eine rahmenförmige Umfangswand eines Außengehäuses angeordnet ist, die an ihrer Rückseite eine der hinteren Abdeckplatte vorgelagerte als Austrittsöffnung dienende hintere Rahmenöffnung und an ihrer Vorderseite eine vordere Rahmenöffnung aufweist.The invention relates to a fan device, with at least one radial fan, with a fan housing in which an impeller driven in rotation about an axis of rotation is arranged, the fan housing having a guide wall, which extends around the impeller in a circumferential direction and is equipped with several arcuate wall sections Air discharge openings limited, each of the air discharge openings being assigned an arcuate wall section of the guide wall, the fan housing having a front cover plate equipped with an air intake opening and a rear cover plate arranged downstream of the front cover plate in relation to the flow direction, and a frame-shaped peripheral wall around the guide wall Outer housing is arranged, which on its rear side is a rear frame opening located in front of the rear cover plate and serves as an outlet opening, and on its front side a front frame opening has.
Radialventilatoren können prinzipiell in zwei unterschiedlichen Kategorien eingeordnet werden: Die eine Gruppe bilden Radialventilatoren mit Spiralgehäuse und die andere Gruppefreilaufende Radialventilatoren.In principle, centrifugal fans can be classified into two different categories: One group consists of centrifugal fans with a spiral casing and the other group of free-running centrifugal fans.
Das Spiralgehäuse der Radialventilatoren aus der ersten Gruppe hat zwei Aufgaben zu erfüllen. Es sammelt die aus dem Laufrad ausströmende Luft, führt sie zu einem gemeinsamen Austritt und wandelt einen Teil der Geschwindigkeitsenergie (dynamischer Druck) in Druckenergie (statischer Druck) durch die stetige Querschnittserweiterung in Strömungsrichtung um (Diffusoreffekt). Bei freilaufenden Radialventilatoren wird die Luft im Laufrad in radialer Richtung umgelenkt und strömt dort am Schaufelaustrittsdurchmesser des Laufrads aus. Zur Erhöhung des statischen Wirkungsgrads sind bereits Diffusoren bekannt, bei denen die Deck- und Bodenscheibe des Laufrads über den Schaufelaustrittsmesser hinausstehende äußere Randbereiche aufweist.The scroll casing of the centrifugal fans from the first group has two tasks. It collects the air flowing out of the impeller, leads it to a common outlet and converts part of the speed energy (dynamic pressure) into pressure energy (static pressure) through the constant expansion of the cross section in the direction of flow (diffuser effect). With free-running centrifugal fans, the air in the impeller is deflected in the radial direction and flows out there at the blade outlet diameter of the impeller. To increase the static efficiency, diffusers are already known in which the top and bottom disks of the impeller have outer edge areas protruding beyond the blade outlet knife.
Eine Ventilatoreinrichtung der eingangs erwähnten Art ist beispielsweise aus der
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, einen Ventilatoreinrichtung der eingangs erwähnten Art zu schaffen, die einfach aufgebaut ist, mit wenigen Bauteilen auskommt und daher kostengünstig herstellbar ist. Ferner sollen die Vorteile von freilaufenden Radialventilatoren mit der Wirkungsweise klassischer Gehäuseventilatoren kombiniert werden.The object of the invention is to create a fan device of the type mentioned at the beginning, which has a simple structure, requires few components and is therefore inexpensive can be produced. Furthermore, the advantages of free-running centrifugal fans are to be combined with the mode of operation of classic housing fans.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Ventilatoreinrichtung mit den Merkmalen des unabhängigen Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen dargestellt.This object is achieved by a fan device with the features of independent claim 1. Further developments of the invention are presented in the subclaims.
Die erfindungsgemäße Ventilatoreinrichtung zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass die vordere Abdeckplatte des Ventilatorgehäuses gleichzeitig eine die Leitwand ringsrum überragende vordere Abschlusswand des Außengehäuses bildet, mit der das Ventilatorgehäuse im Bereich der vorderen Rahmenöffnung vorderseitig mittels Befestigungsmitteln an der rahmenförmigen Umfangswand des Außengehäuses befestigt ist.The fan device according to the invention is characterized in that the front cover plate of the fan housing at the same time forms a front end wall of the outer housing that projects beyond the guide wall and with which the fan housing is fastened to the frame-shaped peripheral wall of the outer housing in the area of the front frame opening by means of fastening means.
Die erfindungsgemäße Ventilatoreinrichtung kommt mit wenigen Bauteilen aus, da insbesondere die vordere Abdeckplatte des Ventilatorgehäuses gleichzeitig die vordere Abschlusswand des Außengehäuses bildet. Das Ventilatorgehäuse kann also über die vordere Abdeckplatte vorderseitig an die rahmenförmige Umfangswand des Außengehäuses angeflanscht werden. Der Zusammenbau solcher Einheiten ist einfach und relativ schnell durchführbar und damit kostengünstig.The fan device according to the invention manages with a few components, since in particular the front cover plate of the fan housing simultaneously forms the front end wall of the outer housing. The fan housing can therefore be flanged on the front side of the frame-shaped peripheral wall of the outer housing via the front cover plate. The assembly of such units can be carried out easily and relatively quickly and is therefore inexpensive.
Bei der Ventilatoreinrichtung handelt es sich um einen direkt angetriebenen Radialventilator mit Luftleitvorrichtungen in Spiralform. Die erfindungsgemäße Ventilatoreinrichtung eignet sich beispielsweise als sogenannte "Filter-Fan-Unit" zum Einsatz in Reinräumen.The fan device is a directly driven radial fan with air guiding devices in spiral form. The fan device according to the invention is suitable, for example, as a so-called “filter fan unit” for use in clean rooms.
Bei einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung weisen die vordere und die hintere Rahmenöffnung einen im Wesentlichen gleichgroßen Öffnungsquerschnitt auf. Dadurch ist es möglich, dass die rahmenförmige Umfangswand des Außengehäuses als reines Rahmenteil ausgebildet ist, ohne stirnseitige Abschlusswände.In a further development of the invention, the front and rear frame openings have an opening cross-section of essentially the same size. This makes it possible for the frame-shaped peripheral wall of the outer housing is designed as a pure frame part, without end-face end walls.
In besonders bevorzugter Weise steht die vordere Abschlusswand des Außengehäuses bildende vordere Abdeckplatte ringsum über den Öffnungsquerschnitt der vordere Rahmenöffnung hinaus und ist mittels der Befestigungsmittel an der vorderen Stirnkante der rahmenförmigen bzw. rahmenartigen Umfangswand befestigt. Die rahmenartige Umfangswand kann dabei also als eine Art Flansch dienen, an die die vordere Abdeckplatte angesetzt und befestigt ist. Bei den Befestigungsmitteln handelt es sich vorzugsweise um Schraub-Befestigungsmittel, insbesondere Befestigungsschrauben und zugehörige Befestigungslöcher einerseits an der vorderen Abdeckplatte und andererseits an der Stirnkante der Umfangswand.In a particularly preferred manner, the front cover plate forming the front end wall of the outer housing projects all around beyond the opening cross section of the front frame opening and is fastened by means of the fastening means to the front end edge of the frame-shaped or frame-like peripheral wall. The frame-like peripheral wall can thus serve as a type of flange to which the front cover plate is attached and fastened. The fastening means are preferably screw fastening means, in particular fastening screws and associated fastening holes on the one hand on the front cover plate and on the other hand on the front edge of the peripheral wall.
Alternativ wäre es jedoch auch möglich, dass die vordere Abdeckplatte eine Umrissfläche aufweist, die kleiner ist als der Öffnungsquerschnitt der vorderen Rahmenöffnung und an der Innenseite der rahmenförmigen Umfangswand ein insbesondere umlaufender Anlagesteg ausgebildet ist, der dann zur Befestigung der vorderen Abdeckplatte dient.Alternatively, however, it would also be possible for the front cover plate to have an outline area that is smaller than the opening cross-section of the front frame opening and an in particular circumferential contact web is formed on the inside of the frame-shaped peripheral wall, which is then used to fasten the front cover plate.
Bei einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung weist die rahmenförmige Umfangswand des Außengehäuses einen rechteckigen, insbesondere quadratischen Querschnitt auf. Prinzipiell wäre es jedoch auch möglich, dass die rahmenförmige Umfangswand als Zylinder ausgebildet ist.In a further development of the invention, the frame-shaped peripheral wall of the outer housing has a rectangular, in particular square, cross section. In principle, however, it would also be possible for the frame-shaped peripheral wall to be designed as a cylinder.
Bei einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung besteht die rahmenförmige Umfangswand aus mehreren miteinander mittels Verbindungsmitteln miteinander verbundenen Umfangswandelementen. Als Verbindungsmittel dienen vorzugsweise Schraub-Verbindungsmittel, insbesondere an den Umfangswandelementen ausgebildete zueinander korrespondierende Befestigungslöcher und zugehörige Befestigungsschrauben. Alternativ wäre es jedoch auch denkbar, dass die rahmenförmige Umfangswand ein einstückiges Bauteil ist.In a further development of the invention, the frame-shaped circumferential wall consists of several circumferential wall elements connected to one another by means of connecting means. The connection means are preferably screw connection means, in particular on the peripheral wall elements formed mutually corresponding fastening holes and associated fastening screws. Alternatively, however, it would also be conceivable that the frame-shaped peripheral wall is a one-piece component.
Bei einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung weist die die vordere Abschlusswand des Außengehäuses bildende vordere Abdeckplatte des Ventilatorgehäuses eine größere Umrissfläche als die hintere Abdeckplatte des Ventilatorgehäuses auf, wobei die Umrissfläche der hinteren Abdeckplatte kleiner ist als der Querschnitt der vorderen Rahmenöffnung, derart, dass der Radialventilator mit seinem Ventilatorgehäuse als einheitlich handhabbare Baugruppe mit der hinteren Abdeckplatte voraus in einen durch die rahmenartige Umfangswand seitlich bekannten Aufnahmeraum eingesetzt ist. Unter Umrissfläche im Sinne der Anmeldung wird die Fläche verstanden, die durch den Umriss des betreffenden Bauteils, also insbesondere der Abdeckplatten, aufgespannt wird.In a further development of the invention, the front cover plate of the fan housing forming the front end wall of the outer housing has a larger outline area than the rear cover plate of the fan housing, the outline area of the rear cover plate being smaller than the cross section of the front frame opening, such that the radial fan with its Fan housing is inserted as a uniformly manageable assembly with the rear cover plate in front in a receiving space known laterally by the frame-like peripheral wall. The outline area in the sense of the application is understood to mean the area which is spanned by the outline of the relevant component, that is to say in particular the cover plates.
Bei einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung weist die vordere Abdeckplatte wenigstens einen Traggriff auf. Damit lässt sich das als einheitlich handhabbare Baugruppe ausgebildete Ventilatorgehäuse in einfacher Weise transportieren und in den Aufnahmeraum einsetzen. Zweckmäßigerweise sind vier den jeweiligen Ecken der vorderen Abdeckplatte zugeordnete Traggriffe ausgebildet.In a further development of the invention, the front cover plate has at least one handle. The fan housing, which is designed as a uniformly manageable assembly, can thus be transported in a simple manner and inserted into the receiving space. Appropriately, four carrying handles assigned to the respective corners of the front cover plate are formed.
Bei einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist die Leitwand mittels Leitwand-Befestigungsmitteln einerseits an der vorderen Abdeckplatte und andererseits an der hinteren Abdeckplatte befestigt. Die Leitwand-Befestigungsmittel sind zweckmäßigerweise als Schraub-Befestigungsmittel ausgebildet, mit an der Leitwand ausgebildeten Befestigungslöchern und korrespondierenden Befestigungslöchern einerseits an der vorderen und andererseits an der hinteren Abdeckplatte und zugehörige Befestigungsschrauben.In a further development of the invention, the guide wall is fastened by means of guide wall fastening means on the one hand to the front cover plate and on the other hand to the rear cover plate. The guide wall fastening means are expediently designed as screw fastening means, with fastening holes formed on the guide wall and corresponding fastening holes on the one hand on the front and on the other on the rear cover plate and the associated fastening screws.
Bei einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist die Leitwand aus mehreren die bogenförmigen Wandabschnitte bildenden als separate Bauteile ausgebildeten Leitwandelementen aufgebaut.In a further development of the invention, the guide wall is constructed from a plurality of guide wall elements which are designed as separate components and which form the arched wall sections.
In besonders bevorzugter Weise weisen die Leitwandelemente jeweils einen bogenförmig gekrümmten Basisabschnitt und an den Längsrändern des Basisabschnitts angeordnete sich einander gegenüberliegende und sich jeweils in der Ebene der Abdeckplatten erstreckende stegförmige Befestigungsabschnitte zur Befestigung an der zugeordneten Abdeckplatte auf. Vorzugsweise ist der Basisabschnitt des Leitwandelements gegenüber dem Austrittsquerschnitt des Laufrads derart angeordnet, dass radial ausgeblasene Luft spiralförmig zu den zugeordneten Luftausblasöffnungen geleitet wird.In a particularly preferred manner, the guide wall elements each have an arcuate base section and web-shaped fastening sections arranged opposite one another on the longitudinal edges of the base section and each extending in the plane of the cover plates for fastening to the associated cover plate. The base section of the guide wall element is preferably arranged opposite the outlet cross section of the impeller in such a way that air blown out radially is guided in a spiral shape to the associated air blowout openings.
In besonders bevorzugter Weise bilden jeweils vordere stirnseitige Enden des Basisabschnitts des Leitwandelements mit hinteren stirnseitigen Enden des benachbarten Leitwandelements seitliche Begrenzungen für die Luftausblasöffnungen. Die oberen und unteren Begrenzungen für die Luftausblasöffnungen bilden dann die hintere und die vordere Abdeckplatte.In a particularly preferred manner, the front end-face ends of the base section of the guide wall element with the rear end-face ends of the adjacent guide wall element each form lateral boundaries for the air outlet openings. The upper and lower boundaries for the air outlet openings then form the rear and the front cover plate.
Es ist möglich, dass die vorderen stirnseitigen Enden der Basisabschnitte der Leitwandelemente einen gegenüber dem Rest des Basisabschnitts umgebogenen Abschlussabschnitt aufweist.It is possible for the front end-face ends of the base sections of the guide wall elements to have an end section that is bent over with respect to the rest of the base section.
Bei einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung sind die der vorderen Abdeckplatte zugeordneten stegförmigen Befestigungsabschnitte unmittelbar an der Innenseite der vorderen Abdeckplatte befestigt oder mittelbar durch eine zwischengeschaltete Befestigungsplatte, an der einerseits die Befestigungsabschnitte befestigt sind und die andererseits an der Innenseite der vorderen Abdeckplatte befestigt ist.In a further development of the invention, the web-shaped fastening sections assigned to the front cover plate are fastened directly to the inside of the front cover plate or indirectly through an intermediate fastening plate on which the fastening sections on the one hand are attached and the other is attached to the inside of the front cover plate.
Es ist möglich, dass von den Luftausblasöffnungen sich wenigstens zwei insbesondere vier, diametral bezüglich der Rotationsachse des Laufrads gegenüberliegen.It is possible that at least two of the air outlet openings, in particular four, are diametrically opposite one another with respect to the axis of rotation of the impeller.
In besonders bevorzugter Weise weisen die Luftausblasöffnungen jeweils eine Mündungsfläche auf, die im Winkel, insbesondere im Winkel von < 90°, zu einer zugeordneten Seitenkante der vorderen Abdeckplatte ausgerichtet sind.In a particularly preferred manner, the air outlet openings each have an opening surface which is oriented at an angle, in particular at an angle of <90 °, to an associated side edge of the front cover plate.
In besonders bevorzugter Weise ist im Bereich des hinteren stirnseitigen Endes der rahmenförmigen Umfangswand eine Befestigungsschnittstelle zur Befestigung eines Filterelementes ausgebildet.In a particularly preferred manner, a fastening interface for fastening a filter element is formed in the region of the rear face end of the frame-shaped peripheral wall.
Bei einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist an der Befestigungsschnittstelle ein Filterelement befestigt.In a further development of the invention, a filter element is attached to the attachment interface.
