A ceiling fan may include a housing having a central longitudinal axis, an inlet, and an interior in fluid communication with the inlet. The ceiling fan may include a nozzle disposed around a portion of the housing that may be spaced a distance apart from the housing and define an interior passageway and an outlet in fluid communication with the interior passageway. The ceiling fan may include a conduit disposed between portions of the housing and the nozzle in fluid communication with the interior of the housing and the interior passageway of the nozzle. The fan may further include an impeller disposed in the housing and a motor coupled to the impeller. The motor may rotate the impeller for drawing air into the interior of the housing through the inlet, moving air through the conduit and the interior passageway, and expelling air out of the outlet in a preferential direction.

An air blower includes a motor including a shaft, an impeller fixed to the shaft, and a motor housing disposed radially outwardly of the motor. The impeller includes an impeller base that extends radially outwardly at an axially lower position. The impeller base includes a boss section fixed to the shaft. The motor housing includes an upper surface cylindrical section that extends axially upward from a radially inner end of the motor housing upper surface. At least a portion of a radially inner surface of the upper surface cylindrical section is radially opposed to a radially outer surface of the shaft or the boss section, and an axially upper end of the upper surface cylindrical section is disposed over an axially lower end of the impeller base and over an upper end of a bearing.

A blower for a breathing apparatus has a diffuser for increasing static pressure and/or reducing noise and/or mitigating pressure instabilities and/or managing reverse flow.

A blower includes a motor, a plurality of fans coaxially arranged in multiple stages, a housing having an inlet opening and a discharge opening, and a battery mounting part to which a battery is removably mountable. A rotational speed of the motor is within a range of 50,000 rpm to 120,000 rpm. A diameter of each of the fans is within a range of 30 mm to 70 mm. An area of the discharge opening is within a range of not less than an area of a circle having a diameter of 2.5 mm and not more than an area of a circle having a diameter of 10 mm. A blowing force of air discharged through the discharge opening is within a range of 1 N to 3 N.

A fan for a rotating electrical machine is disclosed. The fan comprises a plurality of fan blades and a flow separator for separating a first airflow entering the fan from a radially outwards part of the rotating electrical machine and second airflow entering the fan from a radially inwards part of the rotating electrical machine. The flow separator extends partway through the fan in a direction of airflow. This may help to improve the efficiency of the fan using a relatively simple construction and without adding to its length.

An electric fan and a vacuum cleaner having the same are provided. The electric fan includes: a cover having an open side; an impeller disposed in the cover; a diffuser including a diffuser body and a plurality of vanes, the diffuser body being located at a side of the impeller adjacent to the cover, the plurality of vanes being disposed at an end of the diffuser body adjacent to impeller and spaced apart from one another along an outer circumference of the impeller, an outlet angle of each vane being denoted as , and satisfying: 4590; and a refluxer disposed at an end of the diffuser body away from the impeller. The electric fan reduces flow losses of airflow, and improves work efficiency.

A motor includes a shaft disposed along a central axis, a rotor fixed to the shaft and capable of rotating around the central axis, a stator outside of the rotor, a first housing including a cylindrical portion and disposed on an outside of the stator, and a second housing disposed on an upper side of the first housing. The second housing includes a top plate and projected portions extending downward and spaced apart. Ribs extending from both end portions of the projected portion in the circumferential direction to an inside in the radial direction as viewed in the axial direction are disposed on a lower surface of the top plate.

Diagonal fan having a fan housing, within which an external-rotor motor and an impeller are accommodated, wherein the external-rotor motor has a stator and a rotor which at least partly surrounds the stator, and an axial flow duct runs between the fan housing and the external-rotor motor as far as a discharge opening, surrounding the external-rotor motor, of the diagonal fan, through which duct, during operation, air which is drawn in by means of the impeller can be conveyed to the discharge opening, and wherein the impeller is integrated in the rotor.

A blower includes an impeller fixed to a shaft extending along a central axis in an up-down direction, the impeller being rotatable about the central axis, a motor rotating the impeller, a motor housing outside the motor in a radial direction, a blower case outside the motor housing in the radial direction, and a circuit board below a lower end of the motor housing. A flow passage in communication with the impeller is between a radially outer surface of the motor housing and a radially inner surface of the blower case. The circuit board includes a circuit board through hole that penetrates through the circuit board in the axial direction inside the radially outer surface of the motor housing in the radial direction.

A blower includes a housing including an inlet and an outlet, a bearing-housing structure provided to the housing and adapted to rotatably support a rotor, a motor provided to the bearing-housing structure and adapted to drive the rotor, and an impeller provided to the rotor. The bearing-housing structure includes a bearing shaft having a bearing surface that rotatably supports the rotor. The bearing shaft provides only a single bearing of the non-ball bearing type for the rotor.
