CENTRIFUGAL FAN - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240035486 titled 'CENTRIFUGAL FAN
Simplified Explanation
The disclosed patent application describes a centrifugal fan that consists of a housing and a blade module. The housing includes a lower cover, a side wall, and an upper cover, which together define an internal space. The lower cover has multiple lower air inlets. The blade module is positioned within the internal space and comprises a hub and several blades. The hub is rotatably arranged on the lower cover, and the blades are arranged around the hub. The lower air inlets are located on the periphery of the hub, with each inlet having an outer edge relative to the hub's rotational axis. At least one end of at least one of the lower air inlets includes a protruding portion corresponding to the outer edge.
