Abstract
An electric or battery powered fan has Omni-Directional adjustments which include a Single point keyhole Oscillation system that adapts a male end (key) flexible pipe coupled to a female keyhole detent system which is coupled to a spring push pin mechanism which allows for angle adjustments at a specific coefficient of friction, which are adjusted by torque from detent and stop mechanism. The flexible pipe allows for unlimited directional adjustments that withstand repositioning at any direction. Said flexible pipe rotates 360 degrees inside the clamp in both directions on a rotational axis. The clamp design which is a quick release mechanism based on the radius of clamp jaw and lag bolt which allows for a quick release mounting system. It is therefore possible to direct air-flow in infinite variations.
Claims3
An Omni-Directional fan for blowing air on a user and adapted to be secured to a post (horizontal or vertical) proximate the user and permitting the user to selectively alter the direction of air blown from the fan during use. The fan comprising:
- A quick release clamp adapted to selectively mount to the post.
- An integral standoff extending outwardly from the clamp that permits the user to move the fan relative to the clamp.
- Couplings secured to the standoff and the fan in conjunction with a flexible pipe which permits selective angle and directional movement of the fan, said couplings comprising a keyhole and push pin mechanism comprising of at least one stop and said flexible pipe that the contact of a detent or stop prevents further pivotal movement. Said other coupling permits 360 degree rotation from base of said quick release clamp in a rotational axis.
