  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

(Embodiment 1)
As shown in FIGS. 1 to 5, reference numeral 8 denotes an axial blower in which a motor 11 is mounted and a propeller fan 8 a is attached to a shaft 9 that is a rotating shaft of the motor 11, and is connected to a commercial AC power source. Reference numeral 1 denotes a ventilator incorporating an axial blower 8. Dirty indoor air generated by cigarette smoke, cooking, or the like sucked by the axial blower 8 is sucked from the suction port of the ventilator 1 and is discharged to the outside through the wall 14 of the building. An electric motor 11 includes a stator 4 in which a main winding 2a and an auxiliary winding 2b, which are armature windings 2, are concentratedly wound, and a cage rotor 3 that is rotatably held facing the stator 4. The operation capacitor 10, the starting capacitor 12, and the PTC thermistor 13, and the shaft 9 as a rotating shaft is press-fitted into the center of the squirrel-cage rotor 3, and the conductor bar formed of aluminum on the outer peripheral side. 5 is provided, and the conductor bar 5 is skewed. A permanent magnet 6 is disposed between the conductor bar 5 and the shaft 9 of the cage rotor 3, and the permanent magnet 6 is made of anisotropic samarium / iron / nitrogen magnetic powder and anisotropic neodymium / iron / boron magnetic powder. The cross-sectional shape in the radial direction is a crescent shape, and the convex side 7 is directed to the stator 4 side and is skewed similarly to the conductor bar 5. The particle size of samarium / iron / nitrogen magnetic powder is 2 to 3 μm, and the particle size of neodymium / iron / boron magnetic powder is 50 to 100 μm. The starting capacitor 12 is disconnected by the PTC thermistor 13 in the synchronous operation state. The axial blower 8 is configured to operate at a constant speed at a rotational speed synchronized with the power supply frequency of the commercial AC power supply in a region from zero static pressure outside the machine to maximum static pressure (zero air volume).

  According to such an axial flow fan 8 of the present invention, as shown in the graph of the rotational speed-torque characteristic of FIG. 3, at the time of starting, an induced current is generated in the conductor bar 5 so that the rotational torque corresponding to the slip is generated. Occur and work. Then, the mode is changed to a mode of rotating by the magnetic force of the permanent magnet 6 and the attractive force of the electromagnet by the armature winding 2 of the stator 4, and the motor is operated at a constant rotation at a rotation speed synchronized with the power frequency of the commercial AC power supply. . Therefore, in the ventilator 1 equipped with the axial blower 8, there is no need to use a DC power supply or a control circuit equipped with a microcomputer. Then, as shown in the graph of the air volume-static pressure characteristics in FIG. 4, even if the external pressure loss such as the external air pressure increases, the air volume-static pressure characteristics that can reduce the decrease in the blown air volume can be obtained.

  Further, since the conductor bar 5 and the permanent magnet 6 are skewed, the transition from the operation as the induction machine to the operation as the synchronous machine is smooth when the power is turned on, and the torque ripple during the synchronous operation is also reduced. As a result, an axial blower that achieves low vibration and low noise can be obtained.

  Further, since the cross-sectional shape in the radial direction of the permanent magnet 6 is crescent and the convex side 7 is directed to the stator 4 side, the induced voltage waveform at the time of synchronous operation becomes close to a sine wave, so that the torque ripple is reduced. Thus, an axial blower that achieves further low vibration and low noise can be obtained.

  The permanent magnet 6 is a bonded magnet in which anisotropic samarium / iron / nitrogen magnetic powder having a small magnetic particle diameter and anisotropic neodymium / iron / boron magnetic powder having a large magnetic particle diameter are mixed. Therefore, the magnetic powder filling rate is improved, so that the magnetic flux density is increased and the neodymium / iron / boron magnetic powder suppresses the magnetization reversal of the samarium / iron / nitrogen magnetic powder. Therefore, since the coercive force is improved, the torque that rotates in synchronization with the power supply frequency is increased. When the torque increases, the propeller fan 8a can take a large difference between the load curve at the time of opening and the load curve at the time of closing. That is, an axial blower can be obtained in which the decrease in the amount of blown air can be extremely reduced even if the outside pressure loss such as outside wind pressure increases.

  In the first embodiment, the starting capacitor 12 and the PTC thermistor 13 are provided. However, if there is no effect on the shift from the starting as the induction machine to the synchronous operation, the starting capacitor 12 and the PTC thermistor 13 are connected. Without being provided, only the operation capacitor 10 may be used to perform the start-up and the synchronous operation, and there is no difference in the operation effect.

  As described above, the axial flow fan according to the present invention is operated at a constant speed at the rotation speed synchronized with the power supply frequency, so that even if the external static pressure rises, the reduction in the air volume is small. It is useful to install on air conditioners and cooling units such as ventilators, fans, refrigerators, and air conditioners that are required to secure an appropriate air flow at low cost without installing special circuits. is there.
