Abstract
A high performance radiator fan includes an axial fan and a centrifugal fan. The axial fan has a plurality of arched-shaped blades located between a protrusive circular hub and a closed motor shell for drawing airflow from the upper end of the axial fan through the curved blades into the centrifugal fan. The airflow is converged and spun out at high speed and great volume by centrifugal force to enhance heat dissipation efficiency.
Claims1
A high performance radiator fan comprising an axial fan assembled with a centrifugal fan, wherein:
- the axial fan includes a protrusive circular hub in the center thereof and a plurality of equally spaced arch-shaped blades extended outward from the hub to connect with a closed periphery shell of a motor, the hub having a recess formed at the bottom end thereof and a spindle aperture formed in the center thereof for engaging with a spindle;
- the centrifugal fan includes a barrel structure in the center and a plurality of equally spaced vanes extended outward from the barrel structure to the periphery thereof, the number of the vanes being twice that of the blades, each blade being engaged and superimposed with one of the vanes axially, the barrel structure having an engaging ring at the top end thereof engageable with the recess and a spindle opening in the center thereof for engaging with the spindle;
- and
- a motor coil surrounds the shell;
- wherein when the motor is energized and rotates, airflow above the axial fan will be drawn into the axial fan and passing through the blades and be completely converged into the centrifugal fan for discharging out by centrifugal force.
