Fan wheel structure
A fan wheel structure includes a hub provided with a plate member and a plurality of blades. The plate member is located around the hub and has an upper side and a lower side. The blades are arranged on the upper side of the plate member and respectively have a connecting end connected to the hub as well as a free end. The blades respectively include a backward-curved section, a middle section and a forward-curved section. The backward-curved section is located adjacent to the connecting end and connected to the upper side of the plate member; the forward-curved section is located adjacent to the free end; and the middle section is connected at two opposite ends to the backward-curved section and the forward-curved section. And, an air passage is formed on the upper side of the plate member between any two adjacent backward-curved sections.
1. A fan wheel structure, comprising a hub provided with a plate member and a plurality of blades;
the plate member being located around a circumferential edge of the hub and having an upper side and a lower side; and
the blades being arranged on the upper side of the plate member and respectively having a connecting end connected to the circumferential edge of the hub as well as a free end located opposite to the connecting end; each of the blades including a backward-curved section, a middle section and a forward-curved section; the backward-curved section being located adjacent to the connecting end and connected to the upper side of the plate member; the forward-curved section being located adjacent to the free end; and the middle section being connected at two opposite ends to the backward-curved section and the forward-curved section, the plate member having an outer periphery disposed proximate the middle section of the blades; and an air passage being formed on the upper side of the plate member between any two adjacent backward-curved sections.
2. The fan wheel structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the blades respectively have an upper surface and a lower surface, which are extended from the connecting end to the free end.
3. The fan wheel structure as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the hub further includes a ring member; the ring member having a top surface and a bottom surface, and being connected to all the blades; and the top surface of the ring member being coplanar with the upper surfaces of the blades.
4. The fan wheel structure as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the ring member is connected to the middle sections of the blades.
5. The fan wheel structure as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the ring member is connected to the forward-curved sections of the blades, and has an outer diametrical surface being coplanar with the free ends of the blades.
