    Abstract: A driving level control structure eliminating electric noise from motor includes a drive control unit, a sensing unit, a setting unit, a first comparing unit, and a frequency control unit. The first comparing unit generates a first discriminating signal based on a reference level signal provided by the sensing unit and a preset level signal provided by the setting unit. The frequency control unit generates a second discriminating signal based on the first discriminating signal. The second discriminating signal is set to a specific frequency fallen out of a human ear perceptible frequency range before being sent to the drive control unit for controlling a motor coil unit to on or off as a current limiting operation, so that electric noise from a motor during the current limiting operation thereof is eliminated.

  • Patent number: 7113403
    Abstract: A centrifugal fan type cooling module includes a centrifugal fan and a radiator. The centrifugal fan provides a fan rotor with fan blades and an axial shaft and a fan stator set with an axial core, an upper cover and a frame. The fan blades extend straight forward radially with the outer end of each fan blade has an enlarged curve end part and the rest part of the respective fan blade has a width shorter than the axial shaft. The frame encloses and fits with the top of the radiator and the axial shaft is rotationally joined to the axial core such that a hollow space is formed between the radiator and the fan rotor. Heat from an electronic component is transmited to the radiator and removed outward quickly in all directions by way of upward suction force of the centrifugal fan instead of contacting other electronic members directly.
