The precessing drive train is connected to a first support at one end and pivotably connected to a second support at another end. The precessing drive train includes a single motor having a drive shaft driving both the fan blade and orbital gearing. The orbital gearing causes precession of the drive shaft and is connected to the first support. The orbital gearing includes a gear reduction that is coupled to the drive shaft, a pinion that is coupled to the gear reduction and a ring gear coupled to the pinion. The ring gear is connected to the first support. A planetary gearing system is used for the pinion and the ring gear.

The orbital gear arrangement causes precession of the drive shaft. Connected to the first support. In the tamping _ towel, the pure wire device includes gear coffee, wheel coffee (four), gear = 201237276 gear. The ring gear is coupled to the first support. In a particular embodiment a planetary gear system is used in which the pinion and ring gear are components of a planetary gear system. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the motor is the only motor in the fan system. In other embodiments, a clutch is provided for releasing the orbital gear assembly to block precession of the fan blades. According to another feature, the invention provides a method of precessing a fan blade. One shaft is rotated and pivotable to a support portion. The shaft is coupled to the pinion such that a deflection caused by movement of the pinion about the ring gear is transmitted to the shaft as a precession of the shaft. The above and other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from 1 is a front left perspective view of an embodiment of the present invention; FIG. 2 is a front right perspective view of an embodiment of the present invention; and FIG. 3 is a right view of an embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 4 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing an embodiment of the present invention; and Fig. 5 is a schematic view of a planetary gear which can be used in combination with an embodiment of the present invention. I: Embodiment 3 DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Several embodiments of the present invention provide an improved fan that dissipates or moves air in a space. The preferred embodiment can be used in any device that propels air, such as a fan, space heater, humidified gas, and the like. A particular preferred 201237276 embodiment includes a housing for a portable environmental device, a base, and an internal assembly. The internal assembly includes fan blades that are coupled to a drive train. The drive train includes a single motor coupled to a track gear system that causes precession of the drive train, thereby causing precession of the fan blades about the axis of rotation of the fan blades. The motor, such as an electric motor, has a drive shaft having a first end coupled to the fan blades and a second end coupled to a gear reduction mechanism. The gear reduction mechanism connects the drive shaft to a pinion gear by one or more gears that reduce the rate of rotation of the drive shaft, thereby generating the rotational speed of the pinion. The gear reducer is connected to the pinion via a gear shaft, or the pinion is directly connected to the gear reducer. If a gear shaft is used, it has a distal end that is securely attached to the distal end. The pinion gear is coupled to a ring gear, planet gear or the like on a surface of the rear surface of the non-motor to allow the motor shaft, the fan blade and the drive shaft to pivot and outline a conical shape. The gear reduction mechanism, the pinion and the ring or the planetary gear together form an obstructive gear system. A pivoting surface is coupled to the drive train, preferably to a center of gravity of the pivotable portion. Figure 1 shows a front left side perspective view of the fan 100, which is an embodiment of the present invention. Shown in Fig. 1 is a housing 101 having an opening 102, a protective grill 103 covering the opening 102, and a fan blade 104 positioned behind the protective grid 103. In operation, the fan blade 104 is rotated by a drive shaft that is driven by a drive train having a single motor to propel air through the protective grill 103 and into the area surrounding the fan 100. in. Alternatively, the drive shaft can be precessed about a pivot point such that an axis of the drive shaft outlines a periodic path, which can be a regular depiction of a cone or class 6 201237276 taper Or a symmetrical path. The protective grid 丨〇 3 can be fixed to the casing 101 such that the protective grill 103 is substantially immovable. Alternatively, the protective grill 103 can be fixed to a member, such as a moving motor when the drive shaft is precessed, such that the protective grill 103 also moves. Figure 2 shows a front right side cross-sectional view of a fan embodiment 2A. The components of fan 200 include extensions from a precessional drive train 21 and are coupled to a drive shaft 201 that is coupled to fan blades 205. The end of the precessional drive train 21 稳 is firmly connected to a first support portion. In this embodiment, the first support portion is provided for the housing 208 of the fan 200, and the other end is connected to a first _ The support portion can also be provided for the housing 2〇8 to cause the precession of the drive shaft 201. The precessional drive train 21A includes a single motor 202 that rotates the drive shaft 2〇1. The drive shaft 201 extends from the other side of the motor 202, is coupled to the fan blade 205' to rotate the fan blade 205, and further extends from the other side of the motor 2〇2 to drive the drive shaft 2〇1 to depict a cone Shaped orbital gear unit. The orbital gear arrangement can include, for example, a gear reducer 2〇3 coupled to a ring gear 2〇6 by a pinion 204. The gear reducer 203 uses the drive shaft 201' to provide an output torque on an output shaft 2?7, and the output shaft 207 has a lower rotational speed than the drive shaft 2?1. The output shaft 207 drives the pinion 204 and is in turn engaged with the ring gear 206. Ring gear 206 is securely coupled to housing 208. When the pinion 2〇4 rotates, it outlines a circular path around an inner circumference of the ring gear 206, causing the drive train 210 other than the ring gear 206 to precess, and thus also causing the wind blade 205 precession. To facilitate precession of the drive train 210, the second support portion of the drive train 21 can be 201237276 as a pole. The frame point may be, for example, connected to the motorized casing and the inner portion (4) of the housing 2G8, by pivotally supporting the portion of the shaft 201, or by conventional means. Any other suitable components known in the art are provided. Since the orbital gear unit is firmly connected to the housing 208 by the ring gear, and the training of the train is carried out on the other end, the displacement of the pinion 204 is transmitted to the drive shaft 2 (n, causing the drive (10)]. Precession 'and thus transmitted to the fan blade 2〇5. Fig. 3 shows a right side sectional view of the fan embodiment. The rotating mechanism of the fan is along the front side 3 of the fan 300 with respect to the fan 3_ a rear side The problem solved by this configuration is that when the taper motion is performed, the air is not pushed into the surface of the fan, so that the effect of the fan is not lowered, and the object is not caused on the support surface. As the fan 300 moves around the track through the shape of the tapered surface, even if substantially all of the elements move around the track, the lifting of the drive shaft 3〇1 causes the fan 300 to be above the support surface, pushing it in parallel therewith. Air, rather than entering the support surface. As shown in Fig. 3, the drive shaft 3 (Π, motor 3〇2 and the orbital gear unit 309 including the gear reducer 303, a pinion (not shown) and a ring gear 306 shape An precessional drive train that depicts a movement of the orbiting gear assembly 309 about the track. The drive train is pivotally supported at any position. For example, as shown in Figure 3, the orbital gear assembly 3 The crucible 9 can be a fan housing supported by a ring gear 306, and the drive shaft 3.1 can be concealedly supported by a bushing 307 disposed between the fan blade and the motor 302 and securely coupled to the fan housing. Figure 4 shows a cutaway schematic view of another fan embodiment 400. The horse 8 201237276 reaches 401 driving the drive shaft 402, and the shaft extends from the opposite end of the motor 4〇1.
