Each of the fan blades has a leading edge with a leading edge angle and a trailing edge with a trailing edge angle. The leading edge angle is at least 50° and not more than 80°. The trailing edge angle is at least 5.5° and not more than 18.5°. The outer radius is not more than 4 inches (101.6 mm).

A locking structure of a compressor impeller, which includes: a rotary shaft; a lock nut arranged on an end of the rotary shaft by means of a threaded connection and provided with waist-shaped holes extending along a circumferential direction thereof; an impeller sleeved on the end of the rotary shaft and located on an inner side of the lock nut, the impeller is provided with threaded holes in communication with the waist-shaped holes of the lock nut; a nose piece located on an outer side of the lock nut and provided with through holes in communication with the waist-shaped holes of the lock nut; and bolts passing through the through holes and the waist-shaped holes in turn into the threaded holes, thereby fixing the nose piece, the lock nut and the impeller together.

A compressor system includes a compressor housing and a driveshaft rotatably supported within the compressor housing. The compressor system further includes an impeller that imparts kinetic energy to incoming refrigerant gas upon rotation of the driveshaft, a thrust disk coupled to the driveshaft, and a bearing assembly mounted to the compressor housing. The impeller includes an impeller bore having an inner surface, and the thrust disk includes an outer disk and a hub. The bearing assembly rotatably supports the outer disk of the thrust disk. The hub is disposed within the impeller bore, and includes a hub outer surface in contact with the inner surface of the impeller bore. A first contact force between the hub outer surface and the inner surface of the impeller bore increases with increased rotational speed of the driveshaft.

A blower unit can include an outer housing, an inlet subassembly, a fan subassembly, an outlet subassembly, and a grommet. The outer housing can have an aperture extend along a first axis between first and second ends. The inlet subassembly can be received in the first end of the aperture. The fan subassembly can be received in the aperture adjacent to the inlet subassembly and include at least one wire. The outlet subassembly can be received in the second end. The grommet can be positioned between at least part of the second end and the outlet subassembly. The at least one wire can extend through the grommet. The grommet can seal against the at least one wire. The grommet can seal between the outer housing and the outlet subassembly.

A motor includes a rotating portion rotatable about a center axis that extends vertically and a stationary portion that rotatably supports the rotating portion. The stationary portion includes a stator facing at least a part of the rotating portion in a radial direction, a circuit board disposed axially below the stator, and a resin portion covering at least a part of the stator, and the circuit board. The stator includes a plurality of coils disposed in a circumferential direction. The circuit board includes an axially upper surface mounted with an electric element that is disposed at least at one of positions including a position between two coils of the plurality of coils, adjacent to each other in the circumference direction, and a position below the coil.

The present invention relates to a blower, the blower according to an embodiment of the present invention comprising: a lower case having a suction hole formed therein through which air is introduced; an upper case arranged on the upper side of the lower case and having a discharge hole formed therein through which air is discharged; and a fan arranged in the lower case and including a plurality of blades. Each of the plurality of blades includes a plurality of airfoils respectively extending along different camber lines from one another, and a leading edge of connecting the leading ends of the plurality of airfoils. Entrance angles formed by the respective camber lines of the plurality of airfoils and the rotation directions of the blades are different from one another. Thus, due to the curved shape of the leading edge and the design of a recessed notch, a flow separating from the leading edge is reduced, and thus, there is an advantage in that air volume performance is improved.

A neck-hanging fan, comprises a housing that can be worn on the neck and a fan assembly, wherein the two extended tail ends of the housing are provided with an accommodating chamber, and an air duct communicating with the accommodating chamber is formed in the housing, a fan assembly is arranged in the accommodating chamber, an air inlet hole communicating with the accommodating chamber is arranged on the housing, and a plurality of air outlet holes communicating with the air duct are arranged on the outer wall of the housing, and the plurality of air outlet holes are distributed along the extension direction of the air duct. The end of the air outlet away from the fan assembly is provided with a wind gathering plate extending into the air duct, wherein a plurality of wind gathering plates are provided.

A fan with airfoil blades is provided for a regenerative air vacuum street sweeper. The blades are formed using cut and pressed upper and lower panels which are welded at a forward edge to a rod to form the airfoil leading edge and welded at the rear edges to form the airfoil trailing edge. Pins extend laterally outwardly from the rod for mounting each blade in corresponding holes in the front and rear plates of the fan housing. The side edges of the blade are welded to the plates at a 9-11° angle of attack. The airfoil blades allow for reduced size, horse power, noise, and manufacturing and shipping costs.

A first elastic member is interposed between an outer peripheral surface of the circular core back portion and an inner wall surface of the second motor housing in a radial direction, both outer peripheral ends of the core back portion in the axial direction of the rotor are covered with the first elastic member, the first elastic member is assembled by being pinched between end surfaces of the first motor housing and the second motor housing which faces each other, and a second elastic member is assembled by being stacked between the bearing assembled in one of the pair of bearing housings and the bearing housing.

A lightweight impeller is provided for use in a pressurised gas source for a CPAP or other breathing assistance apparatus. The impeller can be shroudless or otherwise lightweight.
