    Description

    FIELD



    [0001] This application relates to a ventilation apparatus, and particularly relates to a diagonal flow fan.

    BACKGROUND



    [0002] A diagonal flow fan in the conventional technology is shown in Figures 1 and 2, which includes a motor 6, a fan wheel 2, a blade 4, and a balancing component 9. The balancing component 9 is configured to maintain dynamic balance of the diagonal flow fan and is fixedly mounted at the blade 4, and the dynamic balancing effect is inferior, causing that the diagonal flow fan has defects such as having a low efficiency, a high noise, and being difficult to debug the dynamic balance. Further, in the conventional technology, an air inlet cover of the diagonal flow fan is not provided with an air guiding ring, resulting in a large amount of air loss at an air inlet of the air inlet cover and a low energy efficiency of the fan.

    [0003] In addition, design requirements for energy-related products set by the European Union (ErP Directive) is issued in 2009, and aims to require that energy consuming products reach a 20-20-20 design requirement for protecting environment, that is, 20% less energy consumption, 20% of the energy, in the used material, coming from renewables by year 2020.

    [0004] The European Union stipulates lowest energy efficiency standards respectively for different types of fans in a power range from 0.125KW to 500KW, and these standards are stipulated according to the types of fans, a measurement device and an electric power consumed. The ErP Directive is implemented in two stages in 2013 and 2015.

    [0005] A new standard ERP2015 requires that the ErP Directive is implemented comprehensively in 2015, and the energy efficiency requirements for fans will be more stringent.

    [0006] According to the regulation of European Union, a calculation formula of a standard energy efficiency of a diagonal flow fan with a power range from 0.125KW to 10KW is:

    where:

    P is an input power, and the unit of P is kilowatt; and

    N is a constant, and as set by the European Union, N in an energy efficiency index of 2013 is 47, and N in an energy efficiency index of 2015 is 50.



    [0007] According to the above calculation, the energy efficiency limit in the ErP Directive set by the European Union is rather stringent, and even in the first stage, 30% of all the existing fans will fail to comply with the new regulation. With the implementation of the second stage started from 2015, 20% more of the existing products will fail to comply with the energy efficiency requirement.

    [0008] US 2012/020778 A1 discloses a diagonal fan for gaseous media which has a diagonal impeller with a plurality of vanes, which are fastened on a carrier plate, and a guide device, adjoining the diagonal impeller in the axial direction on the outflow side, for increasing the pressure of the medium, with a plurality of guide vanes. The vanes of the diagonal impeller and/or the guide vanes of the guide device are three-dimensionally twisted. By means of an intake unit, the gaseous medium can be directed into the diagonal impeller. The intake unit and/or an exhaust unit, by means of which the gaseous medium can be directed out of the guide device, is, or are, provided as an exchangeable module and can be fastened on the diagonal fan by means of a fastening element.

    [0009] DE 958 147 C discloses a paddle wheel for blowers, in particular for vacuum cleaners, in which the blades are arranged between two side plates. One of the two side plates together with the blades forms a plastic part to which the other metal side plate is fastened.

    [0010] US 2008/085188 A1 discloses a mixed flow fan having a housing, a stator, and an impeller, with the housing having a downward extending skirt and an upper perimeter as air inlet and a lower perimeter as air exhaust, a central hub with an outer edge, and a plurality of struts connected to the upper perimeter of the skirt and to the outer edge of the central hub. The outer edge of the central hub may be concave or curvilinear or conical. A stator cup which houses the motor is connected to the outer wall of the impeller and to the central hub.

    [0011] EP 0 781 928 A1 discloses a method of balancing fan rotors, particularly electric fans for use in motor vehicles. The fan rotor is balanced by the addition of material in at least one selected position on the fan rotor wherein the material is added by the application of one or more metal staples.

    DETAILED DESCRIPTION



    [0030] The basic concept of the present application is to provide a diagonal flow fan, to address the technical issues that a diagonal flow fan in the conventional technology has a low efficiency. The diagonal flow fan according to the present application includes an air duct, a motor, a fan wheel, a blade, an air guiding ring, and a wheel hub. The air guiding ring has one end connected to the air duct. The blade and the wheel hub are located inside the fan wheel, and the blade has one end connected to the wheel hub and another end connected to the fan wheel. The motor is located inside the wheel hub and connected to the wheel hub. The air guiding ring has another end located at an inner side of the fan wheel, and a gap exists between the air guiding ring and the fan wheel.

    [0031] For making the objects, features and advantages of the present application clear and easy to understand, the technical solutions according to embodiments of the present application are described clearly and completely hereinafter in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Apparently, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, other embodiments, made by the person skilled in the art without any creative efforts, can also fall into the scope of the present invention, which is defined solely by the appended claims.

    [0032] Referring to Figures 3 to 7, a diagonal flow fan is provided. Figure 7 illustrates the invention.

    [0033] The diagonal flow fan includes an air duct 8, a motor 6, a fan wheel 2, a blade 4, an air guiding ring 1, and a wheel hub 3. The air guiding ring 1 has one end connected to the air duct 8. The blade 4 and the wheel hub 3 are located inside the fan wheel 2, and the blade 4 has one end connected to the wheel hub 3 and another end connected to the fan wheel 2. The motor 6 is located inside the wheel hub 3 and connected to the wheel hub 3. The air guiding ring 1 has another end located at an inner side of the fan wheel 2, and a gap exists between the air guiding ring 1 and the fan wheel 2. It is to be noted that, in this embodiment, the air guiding ring 1 is connected to the air duct 8 by electric welding, and in other embodiments, the air guiding ring 1 and the air duct 8 may also be fixedly connected by other connecting methods.

    [0034] As shown in Figures 5 and 6, the air guiding ring 1 of the diagonal flow fan has a trumpet-shaped structure with a flared mouth facing outwards. The air guiding ring 1 has one end flared outwards, and an outwardly rolled edge is formed at a tail end of the outwards flared end, and another end of the air guiding ring 1 is located at the inner side of the fan wheel 2. The outwardly rolled edge at the outwards flared end of the air guiding ring 1 is connected to the air duct 8. By providing the air guiding ring 1, the inlet air loss can be reduced, and the outlet air amount can be increased, and the efficiency of the diagonal flow fan can be improved. In addition, the outwards flaring of the air guiding ring 1 makes the air guiding effect better, thus improving the overall performance of the diagonal flow fan.

    [0035] As shown in Figure 6, another end of the air guiding ring 1 is located at the inner side of the fan wheel 2, and a gap exists between the air guiding ring 1 and the fan wheel 2. The gap has a size S, and 0mm<S≤10mm, the backflow loss of airflow can be reduced by controlling the size of the gap, thus improving the energy efficiency of the fan. The smaller the gap, the higher the efficiency of the fan. It is concluded by repeated tests that, the best processing size of the gap between the air guiding ring 1 and the fan wheel 2 is 2.5mm, and with this best processing size, the energy efficiency can be higher than ERP2015 requirement by 6% to 8%.

    [0036] It must be noted that, in this embodiment, the blade 4 and the wheel hub 3 are embodied as an integral structure, and are mainly formed integrally by injection molding, to prevent loosening of the blade 4 and the wheel hub 3.

    [0037] As shown in Figure 4, in this embodiment, the blade 4 and the wheel hub 3 are arranged inside the fan wheel 2. The blade 4 is provided with a protrusion, and the fan wheel 2 is provided with a locking slot configured to engage with the protrusion of the blade 4. The protrusion of the blade 4 can be fitted into the locking slot of the fan wheel 2, to fixedly connect the blade 4 to the fan wheel 2. After the protrusion is fitted into the locking slot of the fan wheel 2, the protrusion can be welded to a portion, close to the periphery of the locking slot, of the fan wheel by ultrasonic welding, to allow the fixed connection between the blade 4 and the fan wheel 2 to be more reliably. The number of the blade 4 is more than two, and multiple blades 4 are twisted in the same direction, and the twisting direction of the blades 4 is almost the same as the rotation direction of the fan wheel.

    [0038] As shown in Figure 7, a balancing component 9 is provided on an outer peripheral surface of the fan wheel 2 in a range of 360 degrees to achieve dynamic balance. In this embodiment, the dynamic balance is achieved by mounting a balance nail 9 on an upper side and a lower side of the outer peripheral surface of the fan wheel 2 in a range of 360 degrees, and multiple balance nails 9 may be provided according to the requirement for achieving dynamic balance. According to the invention, a balance nail is employed to achieve dynamic balance, which addresses the issues of low efficiency and inferior dynamic balance of the diagonal flow fan in the conventional technology in which dynamic balance is achieved by using a balance clip. The diagonal flow fan in the conventional technology has a dynamic balancing efficiency ranging from 10minutes per set to 20minutes per set and requires eight to twelve balance clips. The diagonal flow fan according to this embodiment has a dynamic balancing efficiency ranging from 3minutes per set to 5minutes per set and requires four to six balance nails.

    [0039] According to the invention, a balance nail is employed as the balancing component.

    [0040] As shown in Figures 4 and 5, five holes are provided in a top end of the wheel hub 3, one of the five holes is located in the center of the wheel hub 3, and an outer rotor shaft of the motor is inserted into the central hole of the wheel hub, to achieve a concentric positioning configuration of the motor shaft and the fan wheel. A steel ring 5 is fixed on the wheel hub 3, and an inner wall of the wheel hub 3 is provided with a reinforcing rib configured to support the steel ring 5 and the motor 6. The wheel hub 3 and the steel ring 5 are fixed to each other by screw, and the steel ring 5 and the rotor of the motor 6 are connected by riveting and/or welding, thus preventing the steel ring from falling off. In addition, the motor shaft and the fan wheel employ a concentric positioning configuration, thus addressing the issue that an overly large dynamic imbalance is caused by a poor assembling concentricity between the fan wheel and the steel ring. A rotor of the motor 6 employs an electro-coating process, thus preventing the service life of the motor from being reduced by rusting of the rotor.

    [0041] As shown in Figure 5, the motor 6 employs an outer rotor type motor configuration, and the outer rotor type motor 6 is mounted inside the wheel hub 3, and the outer rotor shaft of the motor 6 is mounted in the central hole of the wheel hub 3, the motor shaft and the fan wheel 2 are cooperated with each other in a concentric positioning configuration, thus addressing the issue that an overly large dynamic imbalance is caused by a poor assembling concentricity between the fan wheel 2 and the steel ring 5. An initial imbalance amount of the fan wheel in the diagonal flow fan in the conventional technology ranges from 5grams to 10grams, and an initial imbalance amount of the fan wheel of the diagonal flow fan in this embodiment ranges from 2grams to 4grams.

    [0042] As shown in Figure 5, in a direction from away from the air guiding ring 1 to close to the air guiding ring 1, the shape of the wheel hub 3 changes from a cylindrical shape to a conical shape. A central part of a rear guide vane 7 is fixedly connected to the motor 6, a rear end of the rear guide vane 7 is connected to the air duct 8, and the rear guide vane 7 is concentrically sleeved into the air duct 8, and the rear guide vane 7 and the air duct 8 are fixed by a screw.

    [0043] As set by the European Union, a calculation formula of a standard energy efficiency of a diagonal flow fan with a power range from 0.125KW to 10KW is:

    where, P is an input power, the unit of P is kilowatt, and N is a constant, and N in an energy efficiency index of standard 2013 is 47, and N in an energy efficiency index of standard 2015 is 50.

    [0044] The actual energy efficiency is mainly based on the efficiency under a static pressure, and the calculation formula of the actual energy efficiency is:



    [0045] Generally, the unit of the flow rate obtained from testing an airflow amount of a fan is m3/h, thus, the unit of the flow rate needs to be converted into m3/s when calculating actual energy efficiency under a static pressure.

    [0046] Hereinafter, tests and calculations of energy efficiency indexes are performed for diagonal flow fans with fan wheel diameters of 10inches and 12inches in the conventional technology and diagonal flow fans with fan wheel diameters of 10inches and 12inches employing the structure according to the present application. The test and calculation results are as follows.
