  • Publication number: 20090220360
    Abstract: A cooling fan (1) includes a fan housing (10), a stator (20), a rotor (30) and a bearing assembly (40). A tube (111) extends upwardly from a central portion of the fan housing. The stator is mounted around the tube. The bearing assembly includes a ball bearing (333) and a sleeve bearing (335) received in two ends of the tube, respectively. The rotor has a shaft (336) extending into and roratably supported by the bearing assembly. An elastic element (332) is arranged on the ball bearing to provide a pressing force on the ball bearing toward the sleeve bearing. An oil retaining element (339) is arranged around a bottom end of the shaft and spaced from the shaft. The oil retaining element is attached to the sleeve bearing to provide oil for the sleeve bearing.

  • Publication number: 20090053063
    Abstract: A cooling fan includes a fan housing (10) having a shaft seat (16) extending downwardly therefrom, a stator (20) being fixedly mounted around the shaft seat, a shaft (80) with a top end being fixedly connected to the shaft seat and a free end (82) extending downwardly therefrom, a rotor (30) comprising a hub (32) having a plurality of blades (34) extending radially and outwardly, and a sleeve bearing (40). A fixing tube (36) extends upwardly from a center of the hub. The fixing tube has a closed bottom end and defines a fixing hole (360) therein. The sleeve bearing is fixedly received in the fixing hole of the fixing tube to rotate with the rotor. A bearing hole is defined in the sleeve bearing for extension of the free end of the shaft therethrough.

  • Publication number: 20090041601
    Abstract: A cooling fan includes a fan housing (10) having a central tube (11) extending upwardly therefrom, a bearing (20) received in the central tube, a stator (40) mounted around the central tube, a rotor (30) having a shaft (37) extending into the bearing, and a magnetic ring (38) being fixedly mounted to the rotor to rotate with the rotor during operation of the cooling fan. The bearing is made of iron-copper alloy. The magnetic ring is made of hard magnetic material and exerts a magnetic attraction on the bearing, whereby the rotor is pulled downwardly by a magnetic attraction of the bearing on the magnetic ring to lessen the floating problem of the rotor during operation of the cooling fan.

  • Publication number: 20090041582
    Abstract: A cooling fan includes a fan housing (30) having a central tube (34) extending upwardly therefrom, a bearing (60) being received in the central tube, a stator (20) being mounted around the central tube, and a rotor (10) having a shaft (18) extending through the bearing. At least one notch (180, 184) is defined in an end of the shaft. A balance structure (62) is mounted around the shaft, and has a portion facing and surrounding an upper portion of the at least one notch of the shaft. The balance structure is made of magnetic material, which can attract the shaft downward to thereby counter the upward force generated by the rotor when it is driven to rotate. Accordingly, the noise problem incurred by the floating of the rotating rotor can be resolved by the present invention.

  • Publication number: 20090022611
    Abstract: A cooling fan includes a fan housing (30) having a central tube (34) extending upwardly therefrom; the central tube has a bottom, annular protrusion (31). A bearing (61) is received in the central tube and mounted on the protrusion. A stator (20) is mounted around the central tube. A rotor (10) includes a shaft (18) having a free end (186) extending through the bearing and defining a notch (184) therein. A locking washer (63) engages into the notch of the shaft to limit movement of the shaft along an axial direction thereof. A balance structure (62) is arranged between the locking washer and the bearing. The balance structure is made of magnet and exerts a downwardly pulling force on the shaft to prevent the rotor from moving upwardly when the rotor is rotated.
