Compared with the conventional fan module, the fan is fixed, and the windshield is required to guide the airflow. The fan module 1000 of the embodiment can be applied to the word processor without using a windshield, but by using a fan. The device 1100 rotates relative to the fixed frame 1200, and the purpose of concentrating the wind flow to the heat source for heat dissipation is also achieved. In other words, applying the fan module 1000 of the present embodiment to the server can save the cost of using the hood. Of course, the hood can be used in combination with the server of the fan module 1000 of the present embodiment. Incidentally, the position of the fan module 1000 can be set according to actual needs, for example, the fan module 1000 is disposed near the heat source or is disposed relatively far from the heat source in the server. In view of the above, in one embodiment, the top surface of the fan assembly is the top surface 1104 of the frame 1110. In addition, the top surface 1104 may further have an positioning point Π.08 located on the side or both sides of the first implanting portion 1102. The positioning points 11〇8 may be protrusions and the upper portion 1210 of the fixing frame 12〇〇 and The lower portion 1220 can further have a plurality of positioning holes 1236. The positioning holes 1236 are centered on the assembly holes 1232 (or 1234) and are arranged symmetrically on the sides of the assembly holes ι232 (or 1234) in an arc shape and located at the center. Point u〇8 on the path of rotation. In this way, by the mutual cooperation of the positioning point 1108 and the positioning hole 1236, the fan device 1100 can be fixed at different rotation angles with respect to the fixed frame 12 to form a paragraph sense "to provide different fan flow directions of the fan device 11". Positioning 201211395. 35206twf.doc/l The number and location of holes 1236 can be determined according to actual needs. Another embodiment of the present invention is that the fan device 11 further has two second elastic arms 1 on both sides of the first pivot sx portion 1102, wherein the second elastic arm 1109 is disposed on the frame lm, and the positioning point is The corresponding ^ is placed on the second elastic arm 1109. By the elasticity of the second elastic arm 11〇9, the rotation and positioning of the fan unit 1110 relative to the holder 1200 is relatively easy. In summary, the fan of the fan module of the present invention can be rotated relative to the fixed frame by the first pole portion of the frame, so that the air outlet direction of the fan can be adjusted to concentrate the airflow to more effectively dissipate heat from the heat source. Furthermore, the fan unit of the fan module of the present invention can be rotated relative to the fixed frame. Therefore, if the size of the (4) circuit board is different in the server, only the air outlet direction of the fan needs to be changed to achieve the concentrated blowing of the wind. The purpose of the heat source. In addition, the use of this fan module _ server can eliminate the hood of the hood, and thus cancer: the cost of using the hood. In addition, the set of arms of the arm can be easily assembled with the holder. Moreover, the positioning point and the positioning hole can be set to fix the rotation angle of the fan device relative to the fixed frame, and maintain the wind direction of the wind. The present invention has been disclosed in the above embodiments, but it is not intended to limit the invention, and any one of ordinary skill in the art can make some changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention is defined by the scope of the appended patent application.
