Based on a hollow column (1), terminating at the bottom in a baseplate (2) and at the top in a core (3) from which vanes (4-4′), also hollow and connected with the column (1), emerge; a motor-fan (6-7) is installed in the baseplate (2), activated by means of a circuit breaker (8), which absorbs air from the outside through the lower and open end of the baseplate (2), and delivers it to the vanes (4-4′) from which it passes to the outside through opposite nozzles (5), so that this flow of air causes a rotary movement of the vanes (4-4′), by reaction, and said vanes, in their rotation, form a curtain against solar radiation, while simultaneously moving air below them. The wall of the column (1) can be translucent to allow the light generated by an internal spotlight to pass through it and within said column an electrical resistance or other means of heating that allows the ventilator to provide hot air, can be installed; the external surface of said column forming furthermore an advertising panel.
Vertical ventilator for outdoors and/or indoors, that being specially envisaged as a device for providing protection against solar radiation, simultaneously acts as a ventilator removing the air in its vicinity. It is characterised in that the usual supporting column (1) of the parasol, strictly speaking, is finished off at its upper end in at least a pair of vanes (4-4′), that in their rotary movement provide on one hand a curtain against the effects of solar radiation, and on the other a movement of the air beneath them;
Vertical ventilator for outdoors and/or indoors, according to previous claims, characterised in that the column (1) can be translucent to allow the light generated by an internal luminous spotlight, activated by means of the corresponding circuit breaker, to pass through it.
Vertical ventilator for outdoors and/or indoors, according to previous claims, characterised in that the column (1) is able to house an electrical resistance, or any heating element, within it, to raise the temperature of the air that passes to through it. This resistance is also activated by means of the corresponding circuit breaker.
Vertical ventilator for outdoors and/or indoors, according to previous claims, characterised in that the nozzles (5) can be located at any position on the vane (4-4′), and even in the actual core (3), especially when the vanes are removable for placing the ventilator in rooms with reduced dimensions.
Vertical ventilator for outdoors and/or indoors, according to previous claims, characterised in that the nozzles (5) are directional in order to allow that, as well as giving a variable orientation in the jets of air from the outlets, these also act or don't act as a means of moving the vane (4-4′);
Vertical ventilator for outdoors and/or indoors, according to previous claims, characterised in that both the column (1) and its base or lower baseplate (2) carry advertising messages on their external surface.
