Patent number: 11976668Abstract: A flow guiding device for use on a fan assembly with a motor-operated radial impeller rotating about an axis of rotation. The guiding device has an outer housing and an inner diffuser. A flow duct is formed between the outer housing and inner diffuser. The flow duct extends along an axial flow direction. The outer housing forms a receiving space for the integral holding of the radial impeller. The impeller borders, in the axial direction, on the inner diffuser. The impeller, during operation, takes in a flow axially and blows it out radially into the flow duct. The flow duct is adapted to deflect the flow from a radial direction into an axial direction.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2020Date of Patent: May 7, 2024Assignee: ebm-papst Mulfingen GmbH & Co. KGInventors: Michael Strehle, Björn Sudler, Daniel Conrad

Patent number: 10808719Abstract: A blower arrangement comprising an impeller, which has an axial intake opening formed by a cover plate covering impeller blades at least in sections, by an intake nozzle connected upstream of the impeller, which extends at least in sections into an overlap section in the intake opening of the impeller, wherein a circumferential nozzle gap is formed between the intake nozzle and the cover plate of the impeller, an outer nozzle, which is arranged spaced apart in the radial direction in relation to the impeller and the intake nozzle and enclosing them in the circumferential direction. A first circumferential radial gap is provided between the outer nozzle and the intake nozzle, which forms an inlet nozzle duct extending in the flow direction. A second circumferential radial gap is provided between the outer nozzle and the cover plate of the impeller, which forms a gap duct extending in the flow direction.Type: GrantFiled: April 18, 2018Date of Patent: October 20, 2020Assignee: ebm-papst Mulfingen GmbH & Co.

Patent number: 9932990Abstract: A ventilation device, in particular for heating, cooling and/or humidifying air in residential buildings, includes a duct-shaped housing (1) with an air inlet opening (2) and an air outlet opening (3), and a fan impeller (6) as well as a filter unit, heat exchange unit and/or heating coil unit (14) arranged in the main flow direction (Z) of an air flow generated by the fan impeller (6). An air guiding device (17) is arranged in the flow direction (Z) of the air flow in front of a suction nozzle (16)—configured as a flow conditioner, includes a bar structure with air guiding bars-such that a flow inlet opening is configured on the suction side at an axial height in front of the flow inlet opening (15) by the bar structure whose opening surface is smaller than the opening surface of the flow inlet opening (15).Type: GrantFiled: January 24, 2014Date of Patent: April 3, 2018Assignee: ebm-papst Mulfingen GmbH & Co. KGInventors: Jürgen Schöne, Christian Haag, Katrin Bohl, Thorsten Pissarczyk, Marc Schneider, Björn Sudler, Jens Müller, Michael Strehle, Oliver Haaf, Erhard Gruber, Christian Hammel, Eric Reichert

Patent number: 9450474Abstract: A motor, comprising an electronics housing, a stator having a stator bushing, and a rotor. The motor can be fastened to a fastening wall by means of the stator bushing. The motor according to the invention has an air conducting element and an air conveying element. The air conveying element is connected to the rotor in a rotationally fixed manner. The air conducting element surrounds the stator bushing and forms a flow space between the air conducting element and an outer circumference of the stator bushing. The flow space is open on the side of the electronics housing in the direction of the fastening wall through at least one flow gap. The air conducting element opens with an intake opening via a sealing gap in a rotor-side throughflow opening of the air conducting element.Type: GrantFiled: July 17, 2013Date of Patent: September 20, 2016Assignee: ebm-papst Mulfingen GmbH & Co. KGInventors: Christian Haag, Sven Walter, Bjoern Sudler, Oliver Haaf
