Description
本發明是有關於一種風扇模組，且特別是有關於一種風扇模組及其風扇導軌。The present invention relates to a fan module, and more particularly to a fan module and a fan guide.
目前一般風扇導軌的把手設計，並無法適用於所有的風扇，所以在用到高轉速的風扇時，因為風扇具有用以加強結構剛性的補強肋，就會造成風扇把手就會受限而難以使用。At present, the handle design of the general fan guide rail cannot be applied to all the fans. Therefore, when a high-speed fan is used, since the fan has a reinforcing rib for reinforcing the rigidity of the structure, the fan handle is limited and difficult to use. .
圖1A及圖1B為習知一種風扇及風扇導軌的示意圖。在圖1A及圖1B中並未繪示風扇的扇葉。請同時參考圖1A及圖1B，風扇導軌120裝設在風扇110未設置有出/入風口的相對兩側，其中風扇導軌120的頂部有一L型的彈臂122，且彈臂122的末端鏤空成環狀，而彈臂122還具有一止擋結構124，且當此與風扇導軌120組裝在一起的風扇110裝設於一承載盒(未繪示)中時，止擋結構124會與承載盒形成干涉，彼此限位，以使風扇110穩固地放置在承載盒中。1A and 1B are schematic views of a conventional fan and fan guide. The fan blades of the fan are not shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B. Referring to FIG. 1A and FIG. 1B simultaneously, the fan guide 120 is disposed on opposite sides of the fan 110 that is not provided with an air inlet/outlet. The top of the fan rail 120 has an L-shaped elastic arm 122, and the end of the elastic arm 122 is hollowed out. The armature 122 has a stop structure 124, and when the fan 110 assembled with the fan rail 120 is mounted in a carrying case (not shown), the stop structure 124 and the bearing The boxes form interference and are constrained from each other to allow the fan 110 to be securely placed in the carrier.
當使用者欲將風扇110從承載盒中拆卸下來時，使用者將手指頭穿入兩個風扇導軌120的彈臂122的環狀末端中，然後施以兩個方向相反的力讓兩個彈臂122互相靠近，解除止擋結構124與承載盒的限位，接著施以向上的力量拉提兩個風扇導軌120，風扇110便能夠從承載盒中抽拉出來。When the user wants to remove the fan 110 from the carrying case, the user inserts the finger into the annular end of the elastic arm 122 of the two fan guides 120, and then applies two opposite directions to force the two bombs. The arms 122 are close to each other, the stop structure 124 is released from the limit of the carrying case, and then the two fan guides 120 are pulled upward by the upward force, and the fan 110 can be pulled out from the carrying case.
上述之風扇導軌120讓風扇110可以方便地從承載盒上拆卸下來。然而，對於不同的電子裝置，風扇110的轉速也有不同的需求。當所需要的風扇110的轉速極高時，風扇110需要有用以加強結構剛性的補強肋112，而這些補強肋112的設置位置剛好對應彈臂122的環狀末端，所以使用者的手會受到補強肋112的阻擋，而不易穿入環狀末端，影響風扇110的拆卸。The fan guide 120 described above allows the fan 110 to be easily detached from the carrier. However, for different electronic devices, the rotational speed of the fan 110 also has different requirements. When the required speed of the fan 110 is extremely high, the fan 110 needs reinforcing ribs 112 for reinforcing the structural rigidity, and the reinforcing ribs 112 are disposed at positions corresponding to the annular ends of the elastic arms 122, so that the user's hands are subject to The blocking of the reinforcing ribs 112 does not easily penetrate the end of the ring, which affects the disassembly of the fan 110.

為讓本發明之上述特徵和優點能更明顯易懂，下文特舉實施例，並配合所附圖式作詳細說明如下。The above described features and advantages of the present invention will be more apparent from the following description.
圖2A為本實施例一種風扇導軌的示意圖、圖2B為圖2A之風扇導軌的拉環的示意圖，而圖2C為圖2A之導軌本體的示意圖。請同時參考圖2A、圖2B及圖2C，風扇導軌200包括一導軌本體210以及一拉環220，其中拉環220具有一拉環部222以及一樞接部224，且樞接部224樞接於導軌本體210的一第一末端212，而拉環部222可以樞接部224為樞軸相對導軌本體210旋轉。2A is a schematic view of a fan guide of the embodiment, FIG. 2B is a schematic view of the pull ring of the fan guide of FIG. 2A, and FIG. 2C is a schematic view of the guide rail of FIG. 2A. Referring to FIG. 2A, FIG. 2B and FIG. 2C, the fan guide 200 includes a rail body 210 and a pull ring 220. The pull ring 220 has a pull ring portion 222 and a pivot portion 224, and the pivot portion 224 is pivotally connected. At a first end 212 of the rail body 210, the tab portion 222 can pivot relative to the rail body 210 as a pivot.
承上述，第一末端212具有一容置部212a以及兩凸柱212b，這些凸柱212b位於容置部212a的相對兩側壁212c，而樞接部224的兩側分別具有一凹槽224a，且凹槽224a用以容納凸柱212b，使拉環220樞接於導軌本體210。由於拉環220是以樞設的方式裝設在導軌本體210上，所以拉環220可以其樞接部224為樞軸相對導軌本體210旋轉。在另一實施例中，兩個凹槽224a可改為凸柱，而兩個凸柱212b可改為凹槽。由此可知，只要是將拉環220以樞設的方式與導軌本體210相連接，以使拉環220可以相對導軌本體210旋轉，其實施方式便不僅以本實施例為限。The first end 212 has a receiving portion 212a and two protrusions 212b. The protrusions 212b are located on opposite side walls 212c of the receiving portion 212a, and the two sides of the pivoting portion 224 respectively have a recess 224a. The recess 224a is configured to receive the protrusion 212b, and the pull ring 220 is pivotally connected to the rail body 210. Since the pull ring 220 is pivotally mounted on the rail body 210, the pull ring 220 can pivot relative to the rail body 210 by pivoting the pivot portion 224 thereof. In another embodiment, the two grooves 224a can be changed to the studs, and the two studs 212b can be changed to the grooves. Therefore, as long as the pull ring 220 is pivotally connected to the rail body 210 so that the tab 220 can be rotated relative to the rail body 210, the embodiment is not limited to the embodiment.
圖3為將一風扇及兩個圖2A之風扇導軌組裝在一起的示意圖。在圖3及其以下的圖示中並未繪示風扇的扇葉。請同時參考圖2A及圖3，將上述之風扇導軌200組裝在風扇300的相對兩側，以形成一風扇及風扇導軌的組合350。Figure 3 is a schematic view of a fan and two fan guides of Figure 2A assembled together. The fan blades of the fan are not shown in the figures of Figure 3 and below. Referring to FIG. 2A and FIG. 3 simultaneously, the fan guide 200 described above is assembled on opposite sides of the fan 300 to form a combination 350 of fan and fan guides.
詳細而言，導軌本體210更具有四個彈臂212d、214a，其中兩個彈臂212d設置於第一末端212的兩側，而另兩個彈臂214a設置於第二末端214的兩側。此外，上述之每一彈臂212d具有一組裝凸點212e，而每一彈臂214a具有一組裝凸點214b，而風扇300具有多個組裝開口302。欲將風扇導軌200組裝在風扇300的相對兩側時，可先施力擠壓導軌本體210的第二末端214的兩個彈臂214a，使組裝凸點214b對應卡入組裝開口302中。然後，再施力擠壓導軌本體210的第一末端212的兩個彈臂212d，再使兩個組裝凸點212e對應卡入組裝開口302中。此處所指之組裝凸點212e、214b及組裝開口302的設置位置、形狀及數量可以依照實際需求改變，並不以本實施例為限。當然，先施力以使第一末端212與風扇300組裝在一起或是先施力以使第二末端214與風扇300組裝在一起，並不受本實施例侷限，可依照個人組裝習慣或是順手程度而變化。In detail, the rail body 210 further has four elastic arms 212d, 214a, wherein two elastic arms 212d are disposed on two sides of the first end 212, and the other two elastic arms 214a are disposed on two sides of the second end 214. In addition, each of the elastic arms 212d has an assembly bump 212e, and each of the elastic arms 214a has an assembly bump 214b, and the fan 300 has a plurality of assembly openings 302. When the fan rails 200 are to be assembled on the opposite sides of the fan 300, the two elastic arms 214a of the second end 214 of the rail body 210 may be pressed first, so that the assembly bumps 214b are correspondingly engaged in the assembly opening 302. Then, the two elastic arms 212d of the first end 212 of the rail body 210 are pressed, and the two assembly bumps 212e are correspondingly engaged into the assembly opening 302. The arrangement positions, shapes, and numbers of the assembly bumps 212e and 214b and the assembly opening 302 referred to herein may be changed according to actual needs, and are not limited to the embodiment. Of course, the first end 212 is assembled with the fan 300 or the force is applied first to assemble the second end 214 with the fan 300, and is not limited by this embodiment, and may be according to personal assembly habits or Change by the degree.
圖4為將圖3之風扇及風扇導軌的組合置於承載盒裡的示意圖。請同時參考圖3及圖4，將此風扇及風扇導軌的組合350裝設入承載盒400中以形成風扇模組500，而本實施例之承載盒400一次可以同時容置四個風扇及風扇導軌的組合350，且承載盒400用以良好的固定多個風扇及風扇導軌的組合350且使其彼此稍微隔開。一般可知，承載盒400用以容置風扇及風扇導軌的組合350的數量可以依照實際需求改變。4 is a schematic view showing the combination of the fan and the fan guide of FIG. 3 in a carrying case. Referring to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the combination of the fan and the fan guides 350 is installed in the carrying case 400 to form the fan module 500. The carrying case 400 of the embodiment can accommodate four fans and fans at a time. A combination 350 of rails, and the carrier box 400 is used to securely secure a plurality of combinations of fans and fan rails 350 and to be slightly spaced apart from each other. It is generally known that the number of combinations 350 of the carrying case 400 for accommodating the fan and the fan guide can be changed according to actual needs.
圖5為圖4之風扇導軌的拉環處於打開狀態的示意圖。請同時參考圖3、圖4及圖5，當風扇具有補強肋而使把手受限且難以使用的情形下，若要將風扇及風扇導軌的組合350由承載盒400中取出，只要使用者將手指頭伸進拉環部222中先將拉環220的拉環部222以樞接部224為樞軸相對導軌本體210旋轉，使拉環220的拉環部222大致與導軌本體210的長度方向L平行。然後，使用兩隻手指頭勾著拉環部222以提著此風扇及風扇導軌的組合350，並將其拉離於承載盒400即可。而要將風扇及風扇導軌的組合350裝入承載盒400中時，僅需施力將風扇及風扇導軌的組合350直接壓入承載盒400即可，如圖4示。FIG. 5 is a schematic view showing the pull ring of the fan guide of FIG. 4 in an open state. Please refer to FIG. 3, FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 at the same time. When the fan has reinforcing ribs to make the handle limited and difficult to use, if the combination of the fan and the fan guide 350 is taken out from the carrying case 400, as long as the user will The tab portion 222 of the tab 220 is pivoted relative to the rail body 210 by the pivoting portion 224. The tab portion 222 of the tab 220 is substantially perpendicular to the length of the rail body 210. L parallel. Then, the tab portion 222 is hooked with two fingers to carry the combination of the fan and the fan guide 350 and pulled away from the carrier case 400. When the combination of the fan and the fan guide 350 is loaded into the carrying case 400, only the combination of the fan and the fan guide 350 is directly pressed into the carrying case 400, as shown in FIG.
圖6為沿著圖4之A-A剖面線的剖面示意圖。請同時參考圖2A、圖4及圖6，附帶一提，上述之每一拉環222更具有一止擋結構226，此止擋結構226設置於樞接部224相對遠離拉環部222的一側，而承載盒400的相對兩側具有多個卡槽402。當風扇及風扇導軌的組合350裝設在承載盒400中時，可旋轉拉環220使其拉環部222相對靠近風扇300時，即拉環部222大致垂直於導軌本體210的長度方向L，此時止擋結構226對應卡制於卡槽402，拉環220處於一鎖住狀態。Figure 6 is a cross-sectional view taken along line A-A of Figure 4; Referring to FIG. 2A , FIG. 4 and FIG. 6 , each of the above-mentioned pull tabs 222 further has a stop structure 226 , and the stop structure 226 is disposed on the pivoting portion 224 relatively away from the pull ring portion 222 . On the side, the opposite sides of the carrying case 400 have a plurality of card slots 402. When the combination of the fan and the fan guide 350 is installed in the carrying case 400, the rotatable tab 220 is relatively close to the fan 300 when the tab portion 222 is relatively close to the fan 300, that is, the tab portion 222 is substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction L of the rail body 210. At this time, the stop structure 226 is correspondingly engaged with the card slot 402, and the pull ring 220 is in a locked state.
當使用者想要將風扇及風扇導軌的組合350從承載盒400中取出時，可將手指頭勾入拉環220的拉環部222，然後使拉環部222以樞接部224為樞軸旋轉至與導軌本體210的長度方向L大致平行，而止擋結構226解除與卡槽402的限位，此時拉環220處於打開狀態。接著，使用者可以施力拉提風扇導軌200的拉環220的拉環部222，方便地將風扇300從承載盒400中取出。When the user wants to take out the combination of the fan and the fan guide 350 from the carrying case 400, the finger can be hooked into the tab portion 222 of the tab 220, and then the tab portion 222 is pivoted with the pivoting portion 224. Rotating to be substantially parallel with the longitudinal direction L of the rail body 210, and the stop structure 226 releases the limit with the card slot 402, at which time the tab 220 is in an open state. Then, the user can pull the pull ring portion 222 of the pull ring 220 of the fan guide 200 to conveniently take out the fan 300 from the carrying case 400.
相較於習知是讓兩個手指頭穿入風扇導軌120(如圖1A示)之彈臂122(如圖1A示)的環狀末端中再施以兩個方向相反的力量，因為補強肋112(如圖1A示)的位置與環狀末端相對應且補強肋112佔據了空間，所以使用者不方便將手指頭穿入環狀末端之內，也很難施力讓風扇導軌120(如圖1A示)的彈臂122(如圖1A示)相對靠近以提取風扇300。Compared with the conventional practice, two fingers are inserted into the annular end of the elastic arm 122 (shown in FIG. 1A) of the fan guide 120 (shown in FIG. 1A), and two opposite directions are applied, because the reinforcing ribs are used. The position of 112 (shown in FIG. 1A) corresponds to the end of the ring and the reinforcing rib 112 occupies a space, so that it is inconvenient for the user to insert the finger into the end of the ring, and it is difficult to apply force to the fan guide 120 (eg The elastic arms 122 (shown in FIG. 1A) of FIG. 1A are relatively close to extract the fan 300.
特別的是，由於本發明之風扇導軌200的拉環220可以相對導軌本體210旋轉以相對鄰近風扇300以使風扇300固定於承載盒400中，或是拉環220相對導軌本體210旋轉以相對遠離風扇300，所以風扇導軌200可以適用於未設置有補強肋112(如圖1A示)的風扇，也可以應用於設置有補強肋112(如圖1A示)的風扇。更詳細而言，若是風扇300具有補強肋112(如圖1A示)，使用者仍是先將手指頭穿入拉環部222中將拉環220旋轉至打開狀態，因為拉環220的拉環部222相對遠離補強肋112(如圖1A示)，使用者能夠方便地將風扇300從承載盒400中取出，且不會有不易施力的情形發生。若風扇不具有補強肋112等結構時，則可直接施以兩個方向相反的力讓兩個拉環部222互相靠近，解除止擋結構226與卡槽402的限位，接著拉提風扇及風扇導軌的組合350，使風扇及風扇導軌的組合350從承載盒400中抽拉出來。In particular, since the pull ring 220 of the fan guide 200 of the present invention can be rotated relative to the rail body 210 to be relatively adjacent to the fan 300 to fix the fan 300 in the carrier case 400, or the tab 220 is rotated relative to the rail body 210 to be relatively far away The fan 300 can be applied to a fan that is not provided with a reinforcing rib 112 (as shown in FIG. 1A), and can also be applied to a fan provided with a reinforcing rib 112 (shown in FIG. 1A). In more detail, if the fan 300 has the reinforcing rib 112 (as shown in FIG. 1A), the user still first inserts the finger into the tab portion 222 to rotate the tab 220 to the open state, because the tab of the tab 220 is pulled. The portion 222 is relatively far away from the reinforcing rib 112 (as shown in FIG. 1A), and the user can conveniently take out the fan 300 from the carrying case 400 without occurrence of difficulty in applying force. If the fan does not have the structure of the reinforcing rib 112 or the like, the two opposite directions can be directly applied to bring the two pull ring portions 222 closer to each other, and the limit of the stop structure 226 and the card slot 402 is released, and then the fan and the fan are pulled. The combination 350 of fan rails causes the combination 350 of fan and fan rails to be withdrawn from the carrier 400.
承上述，導軌本體210可更具有一開口216，此開口216設置於第一末端212，且開口216位於容置部212a下方及兩個彈臂212d之間。此開口216的設置可以增加第一末端212的彈性，防止使用者在旋轉拉環220時施力過大而造成第一末端212毀損。In the above, the rail body 210 can have an opening 216. The opening 216 is disposed at the first end 212, and the opening 216 is located below the receiving portion 212a and between the two elastic arms 212d. The opening 216 is configured to increase the elasticity of the first end 212, preventing the user from excessively applying force when rotating the tab 220, thereby causing the first end 212 to be damaged.
由上述可知，使用者可以用手指頭勾住拉環220的拉環部222，然後使拉環部222以樞接部224為樞軸，相對導軌本體210旋轉。As can be seen from the above, the user can hook the tab portion 222 of the tab 220 with a finger, and then pivot the tab portion 222 to the rail body 210 with the pivot portion 224 as a pivot.
綜上所述，本發明之風扇導軌包括導軌本體以及可以相對導軌本體旋轉的拉環。將此風扇導軌組裝在風扇上時，使用者可以方便地拉提風扇及風扇導軌的組合，並將此風扇及風扇導軌的組合置入承載盒中。此外，因為本發明之風扇導軌的拉環可以相對導軌本體旋轉，所以風扇導軌可以應用於具有補強肋的風扇或是不具補強肋的風扇。當風扇導軌組裝於具有補強肋的較高轉速的風扇且使用者想要更換風扇時，拉環可相對導軌本體旋轉以遠離風扇，讓使用者可以將手指頭穿入拉環部中施力拉提風扇，不會有因為補強肋的設置而讓使用者的手指頭不便穿入拉環部而造成不易施力拉提拉環部的情形發生。換言之，本發明之風扇導軌及使用此風扇導軌的風扇模組具有便於組裝及拆卸風扇的優點。In summary, the fan guide of the present invention includes a rail body and a pull ring that is rotatable relative to the rail body. When the fan guide is assembled on the fan, the user can conveniently pull the combination of the fan and the fan guide, and put the combination of the fan and the fan guide into the carrying case. Further, since the tab of the fan guide of the present invention can be rotated relative to the rail body, the fan rail can be applied to a fan having a reinforcing rib or a fan having no reinforcing rib. When the fan guide rail is assembled to the fan with a higher rotation speed of the reinforcing rib and the user wants to replace the fan, the pull ring can rotate relative to the rail body to away from the fan, so that the user can insert the finger into the pull ring portion to apply force The fan is not used because the user's fingers are inconvenient to penetrate into the tab portion due to the arrangement of the reinforcing ribs, which makes it difficult to apply force to pull the tab portion. In other words, the fan guide of the present invention and the fan module using the fan guide have the advantages of facilitating assembly and disassembly of the fan.
