Abstract: A blower (1) with a blower housing (2), a blower wheel (4) positioned so as to rotate inside a blower housing (2), an electric motor (6) for the rotational drive of the blower wheel (4), as well as with a saucer-shaped attachment housing (8) positioned externally on the blower housing (2). The attachment housing (8) contains motor-control electronics (10) and exhibits in its connection area facing the blower housing (2) a metallic cover element (14) covering the motor control electronics (10) and protects against an electromagnetic radiation from the electric motor (6).

Abstract: Disclosed is a protective screen assembly (1) for a fan, comprising a cover part (2) having an air passage opening (4) and a protective screen (6). In the area of the passage opening (4), the protective screen (6) is connected or can be connected to the cover part (2) via a plurality of detent connections (8) distributed over the circumference so as to close the passage opening as protection against contact. Each detent connection (8) comprises a detent shoulder (10) arranged in the passage opening (4) and a detent element (12) arranged on the protective screen (6).

Abstract: A fan unit (1), to be attached to a filter frame (40) of a filter fan, consisting of a housing with a cylindrical housing rim, an inlet opening (20), an outflow opening (7) and at least one protective grid which covers one of both of the openings, and one fan (4) attached to the housing via a motor mount (14) which conveys the air in at least the axial direction. The design enabling the manufacture of a more compact fan unit in an easier and more cost-effective manner, which provides high efficiency and can be installed as a suction as well as a blowing fan unit in the filter fan, and is easy to dismount for the maintenance of the filter fan.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a compact fan, comprising a fan wheel, in particular a radial fan wheel (1), which is fastened on a rotor of an external rotor motor (82). The fan wheel (1) is supported between a front plate (8) having an air inlet opening (9), which is central, and a motor mount (11). The front plate (8) and the motor mount (11) are connected to one another via multiple spacers (12), which are disposed around the circumference. The front plate (8) and the motor mount (11) are formed as plastic or metal spray parts. The spacers (12) are formed as plastic or metal parts entirely or partially in one piece to the front plate (8) and/or the motor mount (11).
