This invention relates to fans for exhaust systems and particularly to an improved double duct or dual duct fan assembly capable of withstanding exhaust gases at elevated temperatures.
Double duct fans are employed in exhaust systems for furnaces and the like, and usually comprise a housing forming part of a stack and having parallel paths of tlow on each side of a central portion that is open to the atmosphere and in which portion a fan motor is mounted.
lt often happens that during furnace charging periods,
-. llames from the furnace extend into the stach and up through the double duct fan assembly. This causes excessive heating of `the fan motor bearings, windings and other parts of the motor, tending to decrease its useful lite. f
The principal object of the invention isy to' provide a double duct fan arrangement that will be capable of withstanding high temperatures.
Another object of the invention is to provide such a fan in which atmospheric air is forcibly circulated between the motor and fan housing.
Still another object of the invention is to provide such a y fan in which a radiation shield is provided between the motor and housing.
Still another object of the invention is to provide such a fan assembly in which the motor shaft supports, in addition to the main fan, an auxiliary fan for forcing atmospheric air through the space between the radiation shield and the housing.
A double duct fan assembly may comprise a main cylindrical housing having truste-conical sections at each end so that it can be connected into a stack for a furnace or other exhaust'system. The cylindrical portion may be provided with diametrically aligned, elliptical openings for receiving a hollow auxiliary housing extending through the cylindrical portion. The periphery of the auxiliary housing may be welded or otherwise securely fastened to the peripheral edges of the elliptical openings in the cylindrical housing. A plate may be mounted within the hollow auxiliary housing for supporting a fan motor with the axis of its output shaft lying along the longitudinal axis or the main housing.
ln one aspect oi' the invention, a radiation shield may comprise two hollow, elliptical-shaped sections of less dimensions :than those of the auxiliary housing. The walls of one side of the elliptical-shaped sections maybe slotted so that when the sections are brought togethenthe slots receive the plate for the fan motor. v Supporting clips may Instill another aspect of the invention, the output shaft of the motor may also support auxiliary fan means between thev radiation shield and the auxiliary elliptical housing 'member'for circulating outside air between the radiation shield andthe auxiliary housing member.
In stillk another aspect of the invention, the auxiliary Y point adjacent to the ian 26.
lice i g fan means may include blades arranged in a backward curved manner relative to the rotation of the fan and the radiation shield adjacent the auxiliary fan means may be provided with a dow controlling flange adjacent the auxiliary fan.
in still another aspect o the invention, baille means may be provided within the main housing surrounding the motor shaft extension leading from the auxiliary housing member and the main fan.
The above, other objects and novel features of the invention will become apparent from the following specification and accompanying drawings which are merely exemplary.

Clips 41 may be permanently attached to the opposite ends of sections 29 andstti, and they are adapted to be connected to the opposite ends of housing member t9. The clips 41 are formed in a manner to space the radiation shield 28 inwardly of the housing member i9 in order to provide a passage 42 between the shield 28 and housing member 19 for the passage of air therethrough.
The extension 25 is adapted to have fixed to it an auxiliary fan 43 between the plates 33 of shield 28 and housing member i9. Referring to FIG. 4, the auxiliary fan 43 may comprise two half-circular disks 44- and having upturned flanged portions 46, 47 that can be bolted together by bolts 48. Blades 49 may comprise angle members arranged in a backward inclined position relative to the direction of rotation of said fan and at equal intervals about the disks lid, 45. Batlle members Sti, Si may be mounted on plates 33 of shield 2t? on each side of the fan i3 for a purpose to be described.
Referring to FIG. 2, energization of the motor 22 rotates fan 26, causing air to be sucked or passed through the two parallel passages within housing iti on each side of the transverse through passage 2d, thence past the battle `27 and through tan 2e. At the same time, fan 43 sucks outside air in through the two open ends of transverse passage 2t) between motor 22 and shield 28, thence through annular passage 40, past flow-control contoured throat flange 37, thence radially outwardly along fan blades '49. Batlles 5i), Sil direct the air around radiation shield 28, between it and housing member 19, thence outwardly from passage 2t) near the bottom thereof as viewed in FIG. 2. Accordingly, a constant flow lof outside air is forcibly circuiated between the radiation shield 28 and the housing member i9 to maintain the temperature of the motor 22, its bearings, and its windings at a `safe value regardless of the temperature of the exhaust gases passing through housing it).
Referring to FIG. 6, the principles of the invention are shown as applied to a modified form ot fan in which the motor 22 is provided with a drive shaft 52 that extends from the end of motor 22 opposite that from which shaft 23 extends. Shaft 52 may also be provided with an extension 53 surrounded by -a battle 54 similar to extension 25 and baffle 27 previously described. The extension 53 may xedly support a fan 5S adjacent the flange t6 in the same way that fan 26 is mounted on extension 25 adjacent flange 15.
An additional auxiliary tan 56, similar to tan 43, may be fixed to extension 5.3 between the lower end of shield 2.8 and the housing member i9. The shield 2d is also provided with flanged iiow control passages 37 at the two ends of the shield.` ln the embodiment of FIG. 6, energizing motor 22 causes fans 55 and Ze to Y suck or transport the air through the parallel spaced passages within housing iti while fans i3 and Se suck air from the passage Zit, through tlow control tiange portions 37, thence radially outwardly and downwardly and upwardly, successively, within passage i2 between shield 23 and member i9, thence transversely of housing iti to the atmosphere.
Although the various features of the double duct fan have been shown and described in detail to fully disclose two embodiments of the invention, it will be evident that changes may be made in such details and certain features may be used without others without departing from the principles of the invention.
