  • Patent number: 7438525
    Abstract: A fan housing and a fan have stationary blades for guiding airflow. Each stationary blade has at least one airflow-guiding element extending therefrom along the circumference of the fan. The side wall of the airflow-guiding element changes the direction of the airflow so that the airflow at the outlet is fully introduced toward the heat source. Furthermore, the airflow-guiding element regulates the airflow, restrains the turbulent flow at the outlet and on the curved surface of the stationary blade, decreases the noise arising from the turbulent flow, and prevents foreign matter from entering the fan housing so as to protect the inside elements thereof.

  • Patent number: 7399161
    Abstract: A centrifugal fan includes a hub and an impeller. The impeller is composed of a plurality of blades mounted around an outer circumference of the hub. The paraxial side of the blade forms a backward leaning structure, while the non-paraxial side thereof forms a forward leaning structure. A chamfer structure also can be formed at a paraxial side of each blade to enlarge the air inlet of the fan. Each blade further includes a protrusion, which is located at a side opposite to the inlet and extends toward a center of the hub, to increase the airflow rate through the fan motor. The centrifugal fan further includes an anti-decompression cap connected to an inlet side of the impeller to prevent an axial flow of the intake air from decompression.
