Axial flow fan
View Patent ↗An axial flow fan includes an impeller having a hub and vanes disposed at equal intervals on an outer peripheral portion of the hub; a rotor shaft located at the center of the impeller; a motor portion rotating the impeller around the rotor shaft as an axis; a casing surrounding an outer periphery of the impeller; a base portion supporting the motor portion; and a stationary blade located in a blowout opening side of air flow, the stationary blade connecting the base portion and the casing, wherein the stationary blade has on its surface a guide portion allowing air flow flowing along the surface to be rectified and guided from a direction of the blowout opening to an outside.
1. An axial flow fan, comprising:
an impeller including a vane;
a rotor shaft;
a motor portion rotating the impeller around the rotor shaft as an axis;
a casing surrounding the impeller;
a base portion supporting the motor portion; and
a stationary blade located in a blowout opening of air flow, the stationary blade connecting the base portion and the casing, wherein
the stationary blade includes a first surface facing the blowout opening and a second surface facing a suction opening,
a surface of the base portion extends in a radial direction,
in a longitudinal direction of the rotor shaft, an entirety of the first surface is inclined to the surface of the base portion and is curved in a cross-sectional view of the stationary blade,
a groove opening toward the air flow is formed only in the first surface facing the blowout opening,
the groove is formed with two walls curvedly intersecting each other and is empty, and
the groove is a guide portion guiding the air flow flowing in a direction from the suction opening to the blowout opening.
2. The axial flow fan according to claim 1 , wherein a cross-sectional shape of the groove is an L-shape.
3. The axial flow fan according to claim 1 , wherein the rotor shaft is located at the center of the impeller.
4. The axial flow fan according to claim 1 , wherein one of the two walls extends in a longitudinal direction of the rotor shaft.
5. An axial flow fan, comprising:
an impeller including a vane;
a rotor shaft;
a motor portion rotating the impeller around the rotor shaft as an axis;
a casing surrounding the impeller;
a base portion supporting the motor portion; and
a stationary blade located in a blowout opening of air flow, the stationary blade connecting the base portion and the casing, wherein
the stationary blade includes a first surface facing the blowout opening and a second surface facing a suction opening,
a surface of the base portion extends in a radial direction,
in a longitudinal direction of the rotor shaft, an entirety of the first surface is inclined to the surface of the base portion and is curved in a cross-sectional view of the stationary blade,
a groove opening toward the air flow is arranged in the first surface, the groove extending continuously from the base portion to the casing, the groove is formed with two walls curvedly intersecting each other and is empty, and
the groove is a guide portion guiding the air flow flowing in a direction from the suction opening to the blowout opening.
6. The axial flow fan according to claim 5 , wherein a cross-sectional shape of the groove is an L-shape.
7. The axial flow fan according to claim 5 , wherein the rotor shaft is located at the center of the impeller.
8. The axial flow fan according to claim 5 , wherein one of the two walls extends in a longitudinal direction of the rotor shaft.
