Abstract: A blower wheel comprising a centerdisk comprising a conical portion (16), a planar portion (160) for receiving a hub (7), and an arcuate portion (15) intermediate the conical portion and an outer portion (14), a plurality of blades (2) connected to the outer portion, the blades further connected to a ring (3), and a hub connected to the planar portion, the hub comprising a fastener (13) for attaching the centerdisk to a shaft (200).
Abstract: A forward swept centrifugal fan wheel comprising a first endring (10), a second endring (11), a plurality of blades (12) connected between the first endring and the second endring, each blade having a substantially continuous arcuate form extending along an axis parallel to an axis of rotation (A-A), and each blade having a substantially continuous arcuate cross-section taken with respect to a plane which extends normally from the axis of rotation (A-A).
