Fan blade
An impeller is applied to a centrifugal fan and includes fan blades and a hub. Each fan blade includes a first portion and a second portion. The first portion is located relatively close to the hub and the first portion is coupled to the second portion. The first portion has a windward side and a leeward side, and the windward side is parallel to the leeward side. The second portion is located relatively far away from the hub. The second portion has a windward side and a leeward side, and the windward side and the leeward side are two curved surfaces with different specific curvatures.
1. A fan blade, applied to an impeller having a hub, comprising:
a first portion, located relatively close to the hub and having a first windward side and a first leeward side, wherein the first windward side is parallel to the first leeward side; and
a second portion, located relatively far away from the hub;
wherein the first portion is coupled to the second portion, and thickness of the second portion gradually increases or decreases along a direction of moving away from the hub;
wherein the impeller further has an annular part for disposing the fan blade thereon, and a rib disposed and connected between the annular part and the hub.
2. The fan blade of claim 1 , wherein the second portion has a second windward side and a second leeward side, the second windward side has a curved surface with a first curvature, and the second leeward side has a curved surface with a second curvature.
3. The fan blade of claim 2 , wherein the first curvature is different from the second curvature.
4. The fan blade of claim 3 , wherein the first windward side is tangent to the second windward side.
5. The fan blade of claim 3 , wherein the first leeward side is tangent to the second leeward side.
6. The fan blade of claim 1 , wherein the impeller further has a connection portion disposed between the annular part and the hub for providing an axial airflow.
7. The fan blade of claim 1 , wherein the impeller further has a base horizontally extended from the hub, wherein the first portion and the second portion are vertically extended from the base.
8. An impeller, comprising:
a hub; and
a plurality of fan blades disposed around the hub, each of which has a first portion located relatively close to the hub and having a first windward side and a first leeward side, wherein the first windward side is parallel to the first leeward side, and a second portion, located relatively far away from the hub, coupled to the first portion and having a second windward side and a second leeward side;
an annular part for disposing the fan blade thereon; and
a connection portion disposed between the annular part and the hub.
9. The impeller of claim 8 , wherein the second portion has a second windward side and a second leeward side, the second windward side has a curved surface with a first curvature, and the second leeward side has a curved surface with a second curvature.
10. The impeller of claim 9 , wherein the first curvature is different from the second curvature.
11. The impeller of claim 8 , wherein thickness of the second portion gradually increases along a direction of moving away from the hub.
12. The impeller of claim 8 , wherein thickness of the second portion gradually decreases along a direction of moving away from the hub.
13. The impeller of claim 8 , wherein the first windward side is tangent to the second windward side.
14. The impeller of claim 8 , wherein the first leeward side is tangent to the second leeward side.
15. The impeller of claim 8 , further comprising a rib disposed and connected between the annular part and the hub.
16. The impeller of claim 8 , wherein the connection portion is disposed and connected between the annular part and the hub for providing an axial airflow.
17. The impeller of claim 8 , further comprising a base horizontally extended from the hub, wherein the first portion and the second portion are vertically extended from the base.
18. An impeller, comprising:
a hub; and
a plurality of fan blades disposed around the hub, each of which has a first portion located relatively close to the hub and having a first windward side and a first leeward side, wherein the first windward side is parallel to the first leeward side, and a second portion, located relatively far away from the hub, coupled to the first portion and having a second windward side and a second leeward side; and
a base horizontally extended from the hub, wherein the first portion and the second portion are vertically extended from the base.
