DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

FIGS. 2, 3 and 4 show a ceiling fan according to a first embodiment of the invention. The ceiling fan includes a motor 1, an intermediate transition member 2 coupled with the motor 1, and a plurality of blades 3 coupled with the intermediate transition member 2.

Referring to FIGS. 3, 4 and 5, the motor 1 includes a stator 11 and a rotor 12. The stator 11 is coupled with a shaft 13. The shaft 13 is hollow. The stator 11 is used to drive the rotor 12 to rotate. The motor 1 includes an outer face (including a top 1a, a bottom 1d and a peripheral wall 1b). The top 1a, the bottom 1d and the peripheral wall 1b may include a plurality of heat dissipating holes 14. The heat dissipating holes 14 extend through the top 1a, the bottom 1d and the peripheral wall 1b, permitting the heat in the motor 1 to be dissipated through the heat dissipating holes 14. In this embodiment, the plurality of heat dissipating holes 14 is formed on the top 1a of the motor 1.

Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, the intermediate transition member 2 is coupled with the top 1a of the motor 1. The intermediate transition member 2 includes a body 22 and a plurality of first coupling portions 23 integrally formed with the body 22. An outer diameter D2 of the body 22 is smaller than an outer diameter D1 of the top 1a, such that the plurality of heat dissipating holes 14 of the motor 1 is uncovered. The body 22 includes a central hole 21 at a center thereof The shaft 13 extends through the central hole 21. The body 22 further includes a plurality of first positioning holes 221. The plurality of first coupling portions 23 extends radially away from the shaft 13 in a manner where each of the plurality of heat dissipating holes 14 is located circumferentially between two adjacent first coupling portions 23 in a regular distance to an adjacent heat dissipating hole 14. Each of the plurality of first coupling portions 23 includes a plurality of second positioning holes 231. Each of the plurality of first coupling portions 23 may extend outward of the body 22 in a radial direction, or may extend outward of the body 22 in a tangential direction inclined from the radial direction (FIG. 9).

Referring to FIGS. 3 and 4, the intermediate transition member 2 further includes a plurality of first fasteners 24 and a plurality of second fasteners 25. The plurality of first fasteners 24 respectively extends through the plurality of first positioning holes 221 to fix the body 22 to the top 1a of the motor 1. The plurality of first coupling portions 23 of the intermediate transition member 2 extends radially beyond the outer diameter D1 of the top 1a of the motor 1 to reduce the height of the ceiling fan.

Referring to FIGS. 3 and 4, each of the plurality of blades 3 includes a second coupling portion 31 coupled with a respective first coupling portion 23 of the intermediate transition member 2. The second coupling portion 31 is preferably in the form of a channel 31a having two ends intercommunicating with each other to improve the cooling efficiency. Each of the plurality of first coupling portions 23 extends into the channel 31a. Then, each of the plurality of second fasteners 25 extends through a respective second positioning hole 231, fixing the second coupling portions 31 of the plurality of blades 3 to the plurality of first coupling portions 23 of the intermediate transition member 2.

Referring to FIGS. 3 and 4, the quantity of the plurality of first coupling portions 23 of the intermediate transition member 2 corresponds to the quantity of the plurality of blades 3. Since the plurality of first coupling portions 23 of the intermediate transition member 2 extends radially beyond the outer diameter D1 of the top 1a of the motor 1, the connecting portions between the plurality of blades 3 and the intermediate transition member 2 are located outside of the outer diameter D1 of the top 1a of the motor 1, thus reducing the height of the ceiling fan.

Referring to FIGS. 3 and 4, based on the above structure, when the ceiling fan of the embodiment is in use, the shaft 13 may be fixed to a predetermined location of the ceiling (not shown) while connecting the ceiling fan to a power. After the stator 11 is electrified, the rotor 12 is driven to rotate. The rotor 12 drives the plurality of blades 3 to rotate. The intermediate transition member 2 includes a body 22 and a plurality of first coupling portions 23 integrally formed with the body 22. The outer diameter D2 of the body 22 of the intermediate transition member 2 is smaller than the outer diameter D1 of the top 1a of the motor 1, such that the heat inside the motor 1 can be discharged via the plurality of heat dissipating holes 14.

In addition, referring to FIGS. 3 and 4, since the intermediate transition member 2 is integrally formed, the plurality of first coupling portions 23 of the intermediate transition member 2 extends away from the shaft 13 while the second coupling portions 31 of the plurality of blades 3 connect to the plurality of first coupling portions 23 of the intermediate transition member 2. In this arrangement, the coupling strength can be increased, the thickness of the ceiling fan can be reduced to lower the oppression of the user, and the convenience and efficiency in assembly of the ceiling fan can be improved. As a result, the cost is reduced and an excellent heat dissipation effect is attained.

FIG. 5 shows a ceiling fan according to a second embodiment of the invention. The second embodiment of the invention is substantially the same as the first embodiment except for that the plurality of heat dissipating holes 14 is arranged on the bottom 1d of the motor 1 and that the intermediate transition member 2 is coupled with the bottom 1d of the motor 1. The plurality of first fasteners 24 of the intermediate transition member 2 respectively extends through the plurality of first positioning holes 221 to fix the body 22 to the bottom 1d of the motor 1. Furthermore, the second coupling portions 31 of the plurality of blades 3 couple with the first coupling portions 23 of the intermediate transition member 2, respectively. The outer diameter D2 of the body 22 of the intermediate transition member 2 is smaller than an outer diameter D1′ of the bottom 1d of the motor 1 while the plurality of first coupling portions 23 of the intermediate transition member 2 extends radially beyond the outer diameter D1′ of the bottom 1d of the motor 1. Thus, the connecting portions between the plurality of blades 3 and the intermediate transition member 2 are located outside of the outer diameter D1′ of the bottom 1d of the motor 1, thus reducing the height of the ceiling fan.

Referring to FIG. 5, based on the above structure, the intermediate transition member 2 is mounted to the bottom 1d of the motor 1. Furthermore, in addition to easy detachment, the intermediate transition member 2 includes a body 22 and a plurality of first coupling portions 23 integrally formed with the body 22, and the outer diameter D2 of the body 22 of the intermediate transition member 2 is smaller than the outer diameter D1′ of the bottom 1d of the motor 1. This permits the heat inside the motor 1 to be discharged via the plurality of heat dissipating holes 14. In this arrangement, the coupling strength can be increased, the thickness of the ceiling fan can be reduced to lower the oppression of the user, and the convenience and efficiency in assembly of the ceiling fan can be improved. As a result, the cost is reduced and an excellent heat dissipation effect is attained.

FIGS. 6, 7 and 8 show a ceiling fan according to a third embodiment of the invention. The third embodiment of the invention is substantially the same as the first embodiment except for that the peripheral wall 1b of the motor 1 includes an annular protruding portion 1c extending radially. A diameter D3 of the central hole 21 of the intermediate transition member 2 is slightly larger than or equal to an outer diameter D4 of the peripheral wall 1b of the motor 1. The plurality of first fasteners 24 of the intermediate transition member 2 respectively extends through the plurality of first positioning holes 221, fixing the body 22 to the annular protruding portion 1c of the motor 1. In addition, the second coupling portions 31 of the plurality of blades 3 are coupled with the plurality of first coupling portions 23 of the intermediate transition member 2, respectively.

Referring to FIGS. 6, 7 and 8, since the intermediate transition member 2 is coupled with the annular protruding portion 1c of the motor 1, the plurality of first coupling portions 23 extends beyond the outer diameter D4 of the peripheral wall 1b of the motor 1. Thus, the connecting portions between the plurality of blades 3 and the intermediate transition member 2 are located outside of the outer diameter D4 of the peripheral wall 1b of the motor 1.

Referring to FIGS. 6, 7 and 8, based on the above structure, the diameter D3 of the central hole 21 of the intermediate transition member 2 is slightly larger than or equal to the outer diameter D4 of the peripheral wall 1b of the motor 1. Moreover, since the intermediate transition member 2 is coupled with the annular protruding portion 1c of the motor 1, the heat inside the motor 1 can be discharged via the plurality of heat dissipating holes 14. Furthermore, since the intermediate transition member 2 includes a body 22 and a plurality of first coupling portions 23 integrally formed with the body 22, the plurality of first coupling portions 23 of the intermediate transition member 2 extends away from the shaft 13 while the second coupling portions 31 of the plurality of blades 3 respectively connect to the plurality of first coupling portions 23 of the intermediate transition member 2. In this arrangement, the coupling strength can be increased, the thickness of the ceiling fan can be reduced to lower the oppression of the user, and the convenience and efficiency in assembly of the ceiling fan can be improved. As a result, the cost is reduced and an excellent heat dissipation effect is attained.

To ensure a safe use of the ceiling fan, the ceiling fan according to the invention may further couple with a safety element 4 as shown in FIG. 8. The safety element 4 is in the form of a rope extending through the shaft 13. The safety element 4 includes an end fixed to the ceiling (not shown), as well as another end coupled with a connecting plate 15 under the stator 11 to prevent the ceiling fan from falling.

In summary, the ceiling fan according to the invention includes an intermediate transition member includes a body and a plurality of first coupling portions along with the arrangement of the plurality of heat dissipating holes, in which the plurality of first coupling portions is integrally formed with the body and extends away from the shaft while the second coupling portions of the plurality of blades respectively connect to the plurality of first coupling portions of the intermediate transition member. In this arrangement, the coupling strength can be increased, the thickness of the ceiling fan can be reduced to lower the oppression of the user, and the convenience and efficiency in assembly of the ceiling fan can be improved. As a result, the cost is reduced and an excellent heat dissipation effect is attained.
