The frame has a plurality of fixing parts disposed at an opening of an outlet side of the frame. The anti-backflow sheets are respectively pivoted to the fixing parts and cover the opening on the outlet side of the frame. A fan having the fan housing capable of anti-backflow is also disclosed.

Abstract: A sound attenuator for low frequencies in an air-conditioning duct of paper mills includes a sound attenuator frame insertable in the air-conditioning duct. At least one attenuator member operating according to the plate resonator principle has a first resonator plate, a framework, whereto the first resonator plate is attached by its inner surface, and a second plate, which is essentially parallel to the first resonator plate. The second plate is attached to the framework by its inner surface, whereby the second plate, the framework and the first resonator plate delimit at least one attenuator unit. The first resonator plate, attached to the framework, is a steel plate and is attached to the framework by laser welding and the framework comprises a pressure balancing opening.

Abstract: An efficient axial fan has a housing enclosure with a square inlet opening and a round outlet opening, a fan assembly with a drive motor and a propeller secured to a shaft and coupled thereto. The entrance of the fan housing is provided with a shutter assembly which is disposed horizontally or vertically across the square inlet opening and comprises a plurality of vanes including a central vane operated by a centrifugal shutter mechanism secured to one end of the propeller shaft, opposite to the propeller and adjacent to the central vane of the shutter assembly. The centrifugal shutter mechanism is normally provided with a hermetic housing comprising a pair of radial masses operatively connected via a pair of pivoting arms to an axial sliding reciprocating actuator which is disposed adjacent to the shutter central vane.
