A blower may include a fan, a casing including a discharge port and housing the fan, and a nozzle attachable to the discharge port. The nozzle may include a nozzle tube in which air flows, and a plate member disposed within the nozzle tube. A rear end surface of the plate member may be inclined to a flow direction in which air flows within the nozzle tube.

A fan including fan frame, fan rotor, at least one light source and first light guide component. Fan frame includes frame body and first assembling structures. Frame body includes outer and inner walls. First assembling structures each comprise extending base and post. Extending base protrudes from outer wall, a part of extending base is spaced apart from outer wall so that a gap is formed therebetween, and post protrudes from a side of extending base located away from outer wall. Light source is disposed on fan frame. First light guide component is engaged with fan frame. A light emitted from light source is configured to be incident on first light guide component. First light guide component includes first wall and second assembling structures. Second assembling structures are connected to first wall and respectively and removably mounted on first assembling structures.

An air-driven generator system for generating electric power from movement of a working liquid. The system includes an air-driven generator that includes a liquid turbine system fluidically interposed between the lower end of an elongate gravitational distribution conduit and the lower ends of plural elongate buoyancy conduits. A heavy working liquid flows from the upper ends of the buoyancy conduits and is fed into the upper end of the elongate gravitational distribution conduit. Working liquid flows down the elongate gravitational distribution conduit to actuate the liquid turbine system. An injection of air into the working liquid in the plural elongate buoyancy conduits induces upward flow of the working liquid. The system includes a solar thermal heating system fluidically coupled to heat exchangers that transfer heat collected by the solar thermal heating system to the working fluid through a thermal transfer fluid circuit.

In a refrigeration unit for use in cooling a space, such as a walk-in cold space, or other system, an easy access fan motor assembly is provided. A motor mount holds the motor with a plurality of legs that couple to a front panel using stud inserts. In some instances the legs are curved and looked like spider legs. A fan guard member covers the fan and is also attached to the stud inserts. By removing fasteners on the stud inserts, the guard member may be removed and the fan motor assembly may be removed from a position exterior to the refrigeration unit for repair or serving. Other systems and methods are disclosed.

A suction assembly for a centrifugal air filter, including an axial fan for generating a cooling air flow and a Venturi nozzle having a flow pipe and an intake port which opens out in a constriction region within the flow pipe. The flow pipe in the outflow direction of the axial fan is penetrated by the cooling air flow in such a manner that a vacuum is initiated in the intake port.

An Internet of Things (IoT) gateway integrated into a real-time monitoring system for skid-mounted natural gas compression systems. The IoT gateway enables remote monitoring, troubleshooting, and diagnosing of natural gas compression systems by providing access to cellular and satellite communication networks for communicating operational data to one or more remote servers. The IoT gateway can be configured to select a communication network based on an order of priority and other various criteria. The order of priority and the selection criteria may be updated over the air. The IoT gateway can be further configured to receive and relay software and other updates to one or more components of the natural gas compression system. The IoT gateway is configured to meet various regulatory compliance standards and is explosion proof.

A bladeless ceiling fan is provided. The bladeless ceiling fan includes a housing configured to accommodate an electric motor. The housing can define one or more vents through which air enters an interior of the housing. The bladeless ceiling fan can further include an airfoil defining an interior passage. In addition, the bladeless ceiling fan includes one or more conduits. The one or more conduits extend from the housing to the airfoil such that air within the interior of the housing flows through the one or more conduits and into the interior passage defined by the airfoil.

Disclosed is a swing angle adjustment device for an electric fan, and an electric fan applying same. By means of an arc reinforcing sleeve, in which one end is in sliding fit with a planetary gear addendum-circle surface and the other end is in clearance with a sun gear addendum-circle, being made on the lower end surface of a planet carrier, the swing angle adjustment device which is for an electric fan oscillating head and can prevent a planetary-gear crank from dislocation is constituted.

A storable fan includes a fan head, a support rod and a base that are connected detachably. A first accommodating groove and a second accommodating groove are formed in the base, and the storable fan has a used state and a stored state. In response to the used state of the storable fan, the fan head, the support rod and the base are connected sequentially. In response to the stored state of the storable fan, the fan head is stored in the first accommodating groove, and the support rod is stored in the second accommodating groove. The fan head, the support rod and the base are connected detachably, for ease of detachment of the storable fan. Both the fan head and the support rod can be stored in the base. The storage process can be accomplished without detaching such fasteners as screws and nuts or by only using few fasteners.
