Abstract: A electrical fan includes a frame (10) having a central tube (11), a bearing (30) received in the central tube, a stator (50) mounted around the central tube, and a rotor (70) being rotatably supported by a bearing in the stator. The frame defines an air inlet (19) and an air outlet (17) at two different sides thereof. The stator and the rotor expand radially along a direction from the air inlet to the air outlet. Fan blades (75) extend radially from the rotor. A hub (71) of the rotor has a streamline shaped outer surface. A stator core (511) of the stator is made by powder sintering technology.

Abstract: A lubricating system for a fan (10) includes a lubricant storage space (17) formed at an end portion of the fan for receiving lubricant therein. A lubricant temporary retaining space (145) is defined at the other end portion of the fan for temporarily retaining the lubricant therein. A lubricant returning space (125) communicates the lubricant storage space with the lubricant temporary retaining space for enabling the lubricant to flow from the retaining space to the storage space. The returning space is defined in a tube (12) made of plastic, wherein a bearing (13) is mounted in the tube and a stator (15) is mounted around the tube.

Abstract: An electric fan includes a fan base (10), a bearing (40), a rotor assembly (20), and an oil-retaining structure. The fan base forms a center tube (11) receiving the bearing therein. The rotor assembly includes a fan hub (22), and a pivot axle (23) joined to the fan hub. The pivot axle pivotably extends into the bearing. The oil-retaining structure can be pivoted with the rotor assembly. The oil-retaining structure defines an oil slot (25) surrounding the pivot axle. At least one oil guide rib (26) is formed in the oil slot. As the fan is operated, the lubricant oil is thrown into the oil slot, and then thrown out of the oil slot along the oil guide rib.
