  • Patent number: 7018167
    Abstract: An object is to improve the durability of wings and suppress vibration of the wings and generation of noise. A fluid machine includes a rotatably supported wing support, and a plurality of wings (21) formed on the wing support at a plurality of circumferential locations and protruding radially outward. The wings (21) each include a first wing element extending radially outward from a first attachment position on the wing support, a second wing element extending radially outward from a second attachment position on the wing support, and a third wing element connecting the first and second wing elements. In this case, the first and second wing elements are formed in such a manner to protrude radially outward from the wing support, and are mutually connected by means of the third wing element. This structure prevents damage to the wings (21), which damage would otherwise occur, for example, upon reception of external force, and thus improves the durability of the wings (21).
