FAN MOTOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18339639 Titled 'FAN MOTOR'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes a fan motor that consists of several components. It includes a housing, a rotating shaft, an impeller, a first vane, a rotor, a stator, and a second vane. The rotating shaft is placed inside the housing and extends through it. The impeller is attached to the rotating shaft and can rotate. The first vane is positioned next to the impeller and helps direct the airflow created by the impeller. The rotor is also attached to the rotating shaft but is spaced apart from the impeller in the axial direction. The stator surrounds the rotor and is located inside the housing. The stator and rotor create an air gap between them. The second vane is connected to the stator and is placed downstream from the first vane in the direction of the airflow. The second vane comes into contact with at least a portion of the inner surface of the housing.


Original Abstract Submitted

A fan motor includes a housing, a rotating shaft that is rotatably disposed in the housing and extends through the housing, an impeller rotatably disposed at the rotating shaft, a first vane disposed adjacent to the impeller and configured to guide a flow of air generated by the impeller, a rotor disposed at the rotating shaft and spaced apart from the impeller in an axial direction of the rotating shaft, a stator that is disposed in the housing and surrounds the rotor, the stator and the rotor defining an air gap therebetween, and a second vane coupled to the stator and disposed downstream relative to the first vane in a flow direction of the flow of air. The second vane is in contact with at least a part of an inner surface of the housing.
