  • Publication number: 20250067277
    Abstract: A blade for an industrial axial fan has a first wing-shaped body having a first leading edge and a first trailing edge; a second wing-shaped body having a second leading edge and a second trailing edge inclined with respect to said keying axis and the first leading edge and the second trailing edge; and a third wing-shaped body having a third leading edge and a third trailing edge inclined with respect to said keying axis in the opposite direction to the inclination of the second leading edge and to the second trailing edge so as to define an entry vertex between the second and third leading edges.

  • Publication number: 20240401605
    Abstract: A blade for an industrial axial fan includes an airfoil, extending along a blade axis and having a leading edge, a trailing edge, a root side, a tip side; and a rod, having a first end connected to the airfoil and a second end protruding from the airfoil for coupling to a hub. The root side has a rounded contour with a concave stretch adjacent to the leading edge and a convex stretch adjacent to the trailing edge. A root end of the leading edge protrudes with respect to the insertion point toward the second end of the rod in a direction parallel to the blade axis. The airfoil forms a lobe that extends in the direction parallel to the blade axis toward the second end of the rod more than with respect to the root end of the leading edge. The airfoil is extruded or pultruded and the leading edge is rectilinear and parallel to the blade axis.

  • Patent number: 10533572
    Abstract: Described herein is a blade unit for industrial fans, which comprises: a blade; and a tubular bar, fixed on which is said blade and which has a root portion configured for being engaged by means for connecting said bar to the rotor of a fan. The unit is characterized in that it comprises a further bar mounted within said first tubular bar so as to present a first portion axially constrained to said first bar, and a second portion that is, instead, able to slide with respect to said first bar, in a condition of sliding friction, following upon a deformation due to bending of said first bar.

  • Patent number: 5401138
    Abstract: A hollow extruded axial flow fan blade which includes two internal longitudinal reinforcing elements (ribs) perpendicular to the blade profile and in which are inserted through bolts for fastening the blade to a round supporting bar inserted longitudinally in the blade. The fastening bolts are completely internal to said blade being parallel to the plane of revolution of the blade while passing diametrally and perpendicularly through the round supporting bar.
