Abstract: Ceiling fans suspended from a structure have a motor to drive blades for moving a volume of air about an area. The motor, with a rotor and stator, can be electrically coupled to the structure. Blades mount to the rotor such that the blades are rotatably driven by the motor. A motor case can mount to the rotor and encase the stator.

Abstract: A ceiling fan or similar air-moving device can include a motor for rotating one or more blades to drive a volume of air about a space. A blade iron can couple the blades to the motor. A connection assembly provides for connecting the ceiling fan blade to the blade iron. The connection assembly provides for aligning the blade with a set of fingers and can slide from a first position to a second position to secure the blade to a blade iron.

Abstract: A light can be suspended from a structure to illuminate a space. The light can mount to the structure with a hanger bracket including a seat. A ball mount coupled to a downrod can be received within the seat to suspend the downrod. An open mouth in the hanger bracket permits insertion of the downrod to facilitate installation. A canopy can fasten to the hanger bracket to suspend the canopy from the structure via the downrod.

Abstract: A ceiling fan or similar air-moving device can include a motor for rotating one or more blades to drive a volume of air about a space. A connector can be used to connect the blade to a blade iron to mount the blade to the motor. The connector can include a set of receptacles configured to insert into openings on the blade, with the set of receptacles connected by a set of arms. A set of mount posts on the blade iron can seat within the receptacles to mount the blade to the blade iron.

Abstract: A ceiling fan or blade thereof can include a fan motor for rotating the blade. The blade can include an airfoil body having an outer surface extending between a leading edge and a trailing edge, and a root and a tip. The blade can be separated into three distinct cross sections including a first cross section as a lifting cross section, a second cross section as a flat cross section, and a third cross section as a transition section between the first and second cross sections.

Abstract: Ceiling fans typically include a motor including a rotor and a stator, blades, a downrod, and a mounting assembly for suspending the fan from a structure. The mounting assembly includes fasteners and brackets to secure the ceiling fan to the structure. The bracket receiving the downrod is fastened to a plate that is secured to the ceiling.

Abstract: A quick connect mounting assembly for a ceiling fan. The quick connect mounting assembly includes two releasably attachable plates that are easily interconnected to mechanically couple elements of a ceiling fan. The quick connect mounting assembly can be used to mount a ceiling fan switch housing to a ceiling fan motor assembly.

Abstract: A blade for a ceiling fan can include a first half and a second half formed from a pulp material. The first half is attachable to the second half to form the blade. Additionally, a blade can include a skeleton with an over molding made from a pulp forming the blade. Furthermore, a blade can be formed using a blade base with a pulp topper added to the blade to form an aerodynamic shape for the blade.

Abstract: A ceiling fan blade moves air about a space, driven by the ceiling fan. The ceiling fan blade can include an upper surface and a lower surface spanning a root and a tip, and a leading edge and a trailing edge. The blade can include a first curved portion along the leading edge and a second curved portion along the trailing edge. The first and second curved portions can include convex upper surfaces and concave lower surfaces, with a flat portion spacing the first and second curved portions.

Abstract: This invention relates to a ceiling mounted air circulating apparatus comprising, in combination: a motor; an essentially centrally located radial or axial air impeller; air guiding means; optional airflow enhancement by means of air amplification means; optional centrally located wiring path from an electrical power source to a wiring enclosure suitable for hanging a lighting fixture or chandelier; and decorative embellishments, ail of which are arranged to blend with the architectural style of a space in a manner similar to a decorative ceiling medallion, the plariform of which, when viewed from below may be circular, rectangular, or polygonal. Optionally, the apparatus of the present invention may embody any of the following; heating, cooling, filtration means, positive ion generation means, and / or air sterilization means.
