A dual-shaft built-in pump includes a main body, provided with an air inlet and an air outlet; a motor cover, provided with an accommodating cavity having an air inflation vent and an air deflation vent; two valve bodies; a first fan blade, located between the air inflation vent and the air inlet; a second fan blade, located between the air deflation vent and the air outlet; a dual-shaft motor, configured in the accommodating cavity and having an output shaft connected with the first fan blade and the second fan blade; and a rotating member, rotatably provided on the main body and configured to drive either of the two valve bodies thereby opening the air inlet or the air outlet. The pump has simple structure, convenient fabrication and low cost.

An axial blower includes a fan, housing, and intake grate. The fan has a rotational axis. The housing surrounds the fan. The housing includes an inlet, fluid intake volume, outlet, and battery interface. The inlet is disposed at a position along the rotational axis upstream of the fan. The fluid intake volume is upstream of the inlet. The outlet is disposed at a position along the rotational axis downstream of the fan. The distal projection extends away from the inlet in an upstream direction. The battery interface is coupled to the distal projection, upstream of the inlet, and suspends a battery pack in the fluid intake volume. The intake grate is positioned between the fluid intake volume and the inlet. The intake grate permits fluid flow between the fluid intake volume and the inlet. The fluid intake volume is unobstructed between the battery interface and the intake grate.

An air flow controller for an air cleaner and an air cleaner are provided. The air flow controller may include a fan, and a housing, the fan being provided in the housing and the housing being movable from an initial horizontal position in which the air flow controller directs air flow in a vertical direction to an inclined position in which the air flow controller directs air flow in a diagonal direction.

A slinger for an electric motor broadly includes a hub and a wheel. The motor includes a housing in which a stator and rotor are at least partly housed. The motor also includes a rotatable output shaft projecting upwardly through a shaft opening in the housing. The hub is fixedly attachable to the output shaft of the motor so that the slinger rotates with the output shaft. The wheel is configured to divert liquid radially away from the shaft opening. The wheel includes a wheel plate and a plurality of radially extending blades cooperatively forming a series of passages extending radially outward relative to the shaft opening, when the hub is attached to the output shaft. The wheel plate is supported by the hub so as to be positioned above the housing when the hub is attached to the output shaft. The blades present radially inboard ends intersecting the hub.

The air filtration system for a box fan is a frame that couples to a box fan and holds an air filter adjacent to the box fan such that air drawn into the box fan must pass through the air filter. The front of the frame includes a fan mount that retains the fan in the frame using a press-fit. The rear of the frame comprises a filter mount that holds an air filter in the path of air flowing through the fan. The filter mount includes a top door that retains the filter and allow access to install and remove filters. In some embodiments, the air filtration system for a box fan may include a second fan mount to hold a second air filter.

A blower including a duct configured to allow air to flow in and out and a plurality of blades disposed to be parallel to the duct. Each of the blades including a first part, a second part, and an airflow generator configured to generate airflow in a direction from the inlet to the outlet by applying a voltage between the first electrode and the second electrode which are disposed between a first electrode on a side of the inlet, a second electrode on a side of the outlet, and a dielectric. In a cross section of the blade in the airflow direction when cut in a cross section perpendicular to each of the blades, the first part has a thickness decreasing in a direction toward the inlet and the second part has a thickness decreasing in a direction toward the outlet.

Airflow from a blower fan can be adjusted between a cooling air mode where cooling air flows freely to the ambient surroundings and a noise mode where the airflow is partially or fully restricted in order to produce different levels of soothing background noise. The airflow from the fan can be split or divided between varying degrees and combinations of unrestricted airflow, partially restricted airflow and fully restricted airflow to produce a wide range of cooling airflows into the ambient with or without the production of additional background noise. A perforated drum surrounds the fan to form a chamber within which airflow can resonate at various frequencies and amplify noise levels selected by rotating the drum around the fan.

An electric motor assembly includes a stator, a rotor, a motor housing, a rotatable shaft, a radial fan, and an air scoop. The motor housing at least partly houses the stator and rotor and presents an exterior motor surface. The rotatable shaft is associated with the rotor for rotational movement therewith, with the rotatable shaft extending along a rotational axis. The radial fan is mounted on the rotatable shaft exteriorly of the motor housing and is rotatable with the shaft to direct airflow in a radially outward direction. The air scoop extends radially outwardly relative to the radial fan and axially to receive radial airflow from the radial fan and turn the airflow axially to flow along the exterior motor surface. The air scoop includes spaced apart axially extending airflow vanes to guide the airflow as the airflow is turned axially.

A removable mask airflow device, comprising a first portion constructed and arranged to be positioned at an exterior surface of a facemask, the first portion comprising an opening and at least one flow processing device disposed at the opening and a second portion constructed and arranged to be positioned at an interior surface of the facemask. The at least one flow processing device is configured to process fluid flow through the opening. The second portion is constructed and arranged to couple with the first portion with a portion of the facemask being between the first portion and the second portion.

A blower includes a first tower and a second tower spaced apart from each other each having discharge ports that face each other. A gate is movably installed in at least one of the first tower or the second tower to protrude into and out of the space between the first and second towers to change a flow of air discharged out of the discharge ports. A guide motor may be configured to move the gate. The discharge ports may be provided at a rear side of the space to discharge air toward a front of the space, while the gate may be moved to cover the front side of the space to guide air upward.
