Abstract

A solar fan has a solar panel deposited inside a transparent protective plate that is positioned at a surface of a casing, so that solar energy can be converted into electricity that is then transmitted to a solar cell in the casing for storage. The solar fan has two blade sets that can be angularly adjusted with respect to a case of the casing.

Claims (6)

1. A solar fan, comprising a solar panel; the solar panel having a transparent protective plate; the protective plate being positioned at a first surface of a casing, so that solar energy can be converted into electricity that is then transmitted to a solar cell in the casing for storage; the casing on a second surface opposite the first surface being provided with a socket for positioning a projecting head attached to a lower end of a rear grille; the projecting head having a positioning slot; the positioning slot having a first end of a rear motor mount inserted therein and fixed thereto; the rear motor mount having a second end combined with a rear motor; a front motor mount fixed to the rear motor mount and to a front motor with a front motor; the front and rear motors having mandrels thereof installed with a front blade set and a rear blade set, respectively; the front motor mount having a shaft portion coupled to a frame of the rear motor mount between the first end and the second end of the rear motor mount; front grille attached to the rear grille; the casing containing therein a circuit board that is connected to a switch for speed and power control and an indication lamp set in an exterior wall of the casing and adjacent to the solar cell; and the front and rear motors being electrically connected to the circuit board.

2. The solar fan of claim 1 , further comprising a USB socket that is in the exterior wall of the casing and electrically connected to the circuit board.

3. The solar fan of claim 1 , wherein each of the front grille and the rear grille is a square frame.

4. The solar fan of claim 1 , wherein both of the front blade set and the rear blade set are oriented to produce a flow in a same direction.

5. The solar fan of claim 1 , wherein front blade set includes seven blades, and the rear blade set includes five blades.

6. The solar fan of claim 1 , wherein the first surface of the casing has the socket thereof provided with a curved guide, and a base of the casing located on a side of the casing opposite the first surface is provided with a curved guide accessible through the socket in the first surface of the casing, so that the curved guide of the casing and base fittingly receive a curved surface formed on the projecting head.
