The front average pitch angle of the front blades is greater than about 46 degrees. The ratio of the rear hub diameter to the rear blade diameter is about 0.3 to about 0.85. The rear average pitch angle of the rear blades is less than about 38 degrees. The ratio of the total thickness to the greater one between the front blade diameter and the rear blade diameter is less than or equal to about 0.75.

A fan including a hub and a plurality metal blades is provided. Each of the blades extends from the hub and is inclined relative to a radial direction of the hub. Each blade has a distal edge away from the hub, and has a pair of wingtips at the distal edge.

The present invention relates to a fruit or vegetable shaped fan for dispersing airborne eye irritants that are released during cutting fruits or vegetables. The fan includes a base that is wedge-shaped, an air inflow collimator that is fruit or vegetable shaped having an open front end, an internal frame that is configured to provide minimal abatement to airflow through the air inflow collimator, a motor mount that secures a motor, a fan blade that attaches to the motor, and a grill that attaches to the open front end of the air inflow collimator. The fan is configured to disperse airborne eye irritants away from a user's eyes. Airborne eye irritants are released when certain fruits and vegetables are chopped or otherwise cut. Such fruits and vegetables that can release airborne eye irritants when cut include onions, peppers, and certain other fruits and vegetables.
