In this embodiment, the lower turntable 2, the upper support frames 3, and the leaf frames 5 are all made of aluminum material to achieve weight reduction and high structural strength, but the materials of the above-mentioned components of the present invention are not The above limits are also available for other materials. In addition, in the embodiment, the blades 6, the pivoting regions 21 of the lower turntables 2, the upper support frames 3, the leaf shelves 5 and The number of the springs 7 corresponds to four, respectively, but the number of the above-mentioned members of the present invention is not limited to the above, and may also vary according to design requirements.

Wherein, when the rotating base 12 is driven by the motor 11 to change between a rotating state and a stationary state, the belt member 8 cooperates with the rotating shaft members 4 to simultaneously drive the blades 6, so that the blades 6 respectively The rotating shaft member 4 is a shaft center and is rotated between a deployed position (see FIGS. 1 and 2) and a spring folding position (see FIGS. 4 and 5).

When the rotating base 12 is in a stationary state, the blades 6 are folded in the spring folding position (see FIGS. 4 and 5) and do not overlap each other, and the blades 6 are matched in a disc shape. However, the boss 441 of the limiting arm portion 44 of the shaft member 4 is located at the folding end portion 214 of the corresponding curved guiding hole 212, and the motor 11 is driven to rotate the rotating base 12 by the user to rotate. The centrifugal force causes each of the blades 6 to rotate with the respective rotating shaft member 4 as an axis and rotates relative to the lower turntable 2 and the upper supporting frame 3, and simultaneously drives the adjacent blades 6 to the same through the driving belt member 8 and the rotating shaft members 4 The unfolded position (see FIG. 1 and FIG. 2) is such that the vanes 6 are apart from each other and do not overlap each other. At this time, the studs 441 of the limiting arm portions 44 of the rotating shaft members 4 are located at the corresponding curved guiding holes 212. The end portions 213 are unfolded and the springs 7 are respectively stretched.

When the user closes the motor 11, the studs 441 of the limiting arm portions 44 of the respective shaft members 4 are driven by the elastic restoring force of the connected springs 7, and are slid to the folded end portions 214 of the arcuate guiding holes 212. Rotating the shaft member 4 relative to the lower turntable 2 and the upper support frame 3, and simultaneously driving the adjacent blades 6 to the spring-retracting position through the belt member 8 and the shaft members 4 (see FIG. 4 and Figure 5).

It is worth mentioning that the upper support frame 3 is detachably disposed on the rotating base 12, and the number and arrangement design of the pivoting regions 21 of the lower turntable 2 are arbitrarily adjusted. The number of the support frames 3 is set, so that the assembly structure between the components can be combined into a plurality of ceiling fans of various blade numbers and combinations without redesigning.

More importantly, since the belt member 8 has flexibility, in accordance with this, in addition to the gear portion 43 that can be engaged with the fourth number of the shaft members 4, the blades 6 can be simultaneously engaged and retracted. The function of the shaft member 4 can also be engaged with different numbers and spatial distributions, and the rotation of the shaft members 4 can be simultaneously driven to achieve the synchronous expansion and contraction of the blades 6 connected to the upper side.

In summary, the blades 6 of the present type of the fan can be synchronously unfolded, and the blades 6 can be synchronously rotated between a spring-retracting position and a deployed position by the rotation of the shaft member 4 and the belt member 8, respectively. Not only the transmission member is simple, but the ring transmission mode is smoother than the conventional link transmission, and is applicable to the deployment fan of various blade numbers and combinations. In addition, the upper support frames 3 are detachably disposed on the rotating base 12, and the number of the upper support frames 3 and the distance between them can be arbitrarily adjusted. Therefore, the assembly structure between the various members of the present invention is not It needs to be redesigned, and only the lower turntable 2 having the corresponding number and spatial arrangement of the pivoting areas 21 can be replaced, and the ceiling fans of various blade numbers and combinations can be assembled. Furthermore, the blades 6 do not overlap each other during the rotation between the spring-retracting position and the deployed position, so that the blades 6 do not have the problem of noise and wear due to collision friction, and In addition, the shaft members 4 are pivoted up and down respectively. The disk 2 and the upper support members 3, therefore, the shaft members 4 do not have the problem of left and right yaw rotation, thereby improving the stability of the synchronous rotation and the service life of the device, so that the purpose of the present invention can be achieved.

However, the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention, that is, the simple equivalent changes and modifications made in accordance with the scope of the present patent application and the contents of the patent specification, All remain within the scope of this new patent.
