Abstract
A fan has a housing with a wire-guiding slot is presented. One of plural connecting members is taken as a line fixed portion having a linking end facing the wire-guiding slot, with the linking end connecting to a section of a peripheral wall of the housing and the said section axially aligned with the wire-guiding slot of the housing. A base is coupled to the housing. A power line has one end connected with the connection port and the other end extended beyond the housing via the wire-guiding slot. An impeller is rotatably mounted inside of the housing. Therefore, the line fixed portion can be close to the wire-guiding slot. Thus, the power line can be straight extended through the wire-guiding slot. A distance between the connection port and the wire-guiding slot is shortened to enhance assembling convenience of the power line.
