A bottom-mounted whole house fan assembly includes an intake plenum mounted over an opening in a ceiling of a building. The intake plenum is supported on the ceiling in the attic of the building. One end of a flexible duct is connected to the intake plenum and the other end of the duct is connected to a fan so that the fan draws air in the building through the intake plenum and duct and exhausts the air in the attic from whence the air is vented to atmosphere. The fan is supported by at least one vertical strut that is connected to the ceiling at the lower end of the strut and to a housing of the fan at the upper end of the strut. A sound dampener is interposed between the strut and the fan housing and/or the ceiling beam to which the strut is attached.

A ceiling fan may include a shaft coupled to a ceiling, a cover to surround the shaft, a main blade having a blade hole which is a space open inward, and a sub-blade positioned in the blade hole. The sub-blade is disposed to have an angle of attack different from an angle of attack of the main blade. The ceiling fan may resolve a red zone of the air flow and may improve air volume and the flow rate due to the dual blades.

A temperature destratification assembly can include an outer housing. An impeller can be positioned within the outer housing between the inlet and outlet of the outer housing. The impeller can have an impeller hub and a plurality of impeller blades extending radially outward from the impeller hub. The assembly can include an impeller motor configured to rotate the impeller blades about an axis of rotation. A stator can be positioned within the outer housing between the impeller and the outlet of the outer housing. The stator can include a plurality of vanes. The stator vanes can include an upstream edge at the upstream end of the stator, a first surface extending from the upstream edge to the downstream edge of the vane, and a second surface opposite the first surface and extending from the upstream edge to the downstream edge of vane. A plurality of the vanes can have a downstream edge at the outlet of the outer housing.

An apparatus for circulating air in a space using a fan, a sensor for sensing an ambient condition, and a user input for inputting a desired condition. A controller is configured for controlling the fan to operate substantially at a first fan speed for the desired condition, and controlling the fan to operate substantially at a second fan speed for the sensed ambient condition. Related methods are also disclosed.

A suspension assembly of industrial fans is provided. The suspension assembly of industrial fans includes a suspending main rod and a sub rod. A first adapter is pivotally disposed on a bottom end of the suspension main rod and provided with a plurality of first assembly holes. One end of the sub rod corresponding to the first adapter is pivotally connected with a second adapter which includes second assembly holes corresponding to the first assembly holes. A fan body is installed at the other end of the sub rod. According to environmental requirements and wind field coverage, directions and angles of air flows from the fan body can be changed by adjustment of relative positions of the second assembly holes of the second adapter to the first adapter. Therefore, good air circulation and ventilation in the environment is provided.

A quick connect mounting assembly for a ceiling fan. The quick connect mounting assembly includes two releasably attachable plates that are easily interconnected to mechanically couple elements of a ceiling fan. The quick connect mounting assembly can be used to mount a ceiling fan switch housing to a ceiling fan motor assembly.

Described herein is a blade system (10) for fans for industrial use, comprising:—a blade (12), which extends longitudinally along a first reference axis (K) and defines within it a cavity (12A), wherein said blade has a cross section with flattened profile and is oriented with a major dimension (L1) along a second reference axis (H); and—a supporting unit (14), on which said blade (12) is fixed and which is inserted within the cavity (12A) of said blade, said supporting unit (14) being designed to be connected to the rotor (2) of a fan. The system is characterized in that: said cavity (12A) of said blade (12) has a cylindrical conformation and a cross section with flattened profile and is oriented with its major dimension (L2) along said second reference axis (H); and said supporting unit (14) comprises a tubular bar (16), which has a cross section with flattened profile and is oriented with a major dimension (L3) along said second reference axis (H), or else a first tubular bar (26A) and a second tubular bar (26C) with circular cross section, which are arranged alongside one another along said second reference axis (H).

A fan includes a motor adapted to be rotated about an axis and a hub adapted to be rotated by the motor. The hub may include first and second hub parts adapted to mate to form the hub, the first and second hub parts having a gap therebetween. A plurality of fan blades each includes an end portion located in the gap formed between the first and second hub parts, which may be drawn together by a fastener to capture the blades therebetween. One or more of the fan blades may include a receiver, such as an open-ended groove, for receiving a portion of the hub. An adapter may be configured to remain stationary during use while the hub and fan blades rotate, and a portion of the hub is adapted to be selectively deployed to engage the adapter to prevent rotation of the hub. Related methods are also disclosed.

A ceiling fan blade is provided. The ceiling fan blade is configured to be mounted on a rotating base, and includes a main body and a blade holder connected to the main body. The blade holder is configured to be mounted on the rotating base. The main body includes a windward part arranged adjacent to a side of the main body and a plurality of air guiding structures arranged adjacent to the windward part. Each of the air guiding structures and the side of the main body that is adjacent to the windward part is 0.2 to 0.4 times of a width of the main body.
