A fan and an electronic device are provided. The fan includes a hub, an outer frame surrounding the hub, and a plurality of blades connected between the hub and the outer frame. The outer frame includes a first side facing an air inlet of the fan, a second side facing an air outlet of the fan, and an inner wall between the first side and the second side. Each of the plurality of blades includes a first end connected to the hub and a second end connected to the outer frame. The second end includes a first region and a second region, the second region is connected to the inner wall. The first region extends from the second region and is disposed above the first side. A first notch is defined among the first regions of two adjacent blades and the first side.

A diagonal fan includes an electric motor, a housing, and a diagonal impeller received inside the housing and drivable via the motor. The diagonal flow during operation is deflected in an axial flow direction. The diagonal impeller includes impeller blades distributed in the circumferential direction and a slinger ring encloses said blades. The diagonal fan includes an inlet nozzle on the suction side accommodating a main flow for the diagonal fan. The inlet nozzle extends overlapping at least in sections relative to the radial section of the slinger ring forming a nozzle gap therewith. A bypass channel on the housing forms a flow connection from a pressure-side surrounding region (U) of the diagonal fan to an inflow side of the nozzle gap. During operation of the diagonal fan, a swirl-free secondary flow (NS) is guided at the inflow side of the nozzle gap via the bypass channel.

The cooling fan module may include a fan assembly and a fan shroud. The fan shroud of the cooling fan module may include a first sidewall that may extend in a radial direction and define an opening. The fan assembly may include a hub disposed within the opening, a blade extending from the hub to a distal end that may include a first side and a second side converging to form a first leading edge with respect to the rotational direction. The fan assembly may include a winglet that may include a first fin, extending in the axial direction from the distal end of the blade and a second fin extending in the radial direction.

An electric propulsion system for an aircraft includes a nacelle and an electric machine. The electric machine includes a stator positioned in the nacelle, and a rotor and fan assembly positioned in a primary flow path through the nacelle. The rotor and fan assembly includes a cylindrical fan shroud, a plurality of rotor magnets positioned on an outer surface of the fan shroud, and a fan hub mounted on a central support shaft via one or more bearings. A plurality of fan blades extend between an inner surface of the fan shroud and an outer surface of the fan hub. The rotor magnets may be loaded in compression in a radial direction when the rotor and fan assembly is at rest. The fan blades may be pre-stressed in a radial direction when the rotor and fan assembly is at rest.

The present invention relates to an axial flow fan that is advantageous in terms of noise like a backward sweep fan while having excellent performance like a backward sweep fan, the axial flow fan including: a hub serving as the center of rotation; a plurality of blades disposed radially outside the hub, each having a blade root connected to an outer circumferential surface of the hub; and a fan band disposed outside the plurality of blades while a blade tip of each of the blades is connected thereto, wherein each of the blades includes: an inner blade positioned inside in a radial direction and bent in an opposite direction to a rotation direction of the axial flow fan; and an outer blade positioned outside in the radial direction and bent in the same direction as the rotation direction of the axial flow fan.

A ventilator for a control device for a vehicle may include a stator having a plurality of coils and a rotor comprising a hollow cylinder. An impeller may include a plurality of blades, the impeller being coupled to the hollow cylinder such that a rotation of the hollow cylinder causes a rotation of the impeller. The hollow cylinder may have a plurality of magnets. The stator may partially encompasses the rotor.

An impeller includes a hub, an outer ring, a plurality of first blades and a plurality of second blades. The plurality of first blades are arranged around the hub at intervals. Each of the plurality of first blades passes through the outer ring, extends inward from the outer ring, and is connected to the hub. The plurality of second blades are arranged around the hub at intervals. Each of the plurality of second blades passes through the outer ring. At least one of the plurality of second blades is disposed between the plurality of first blades. A length of each of the plurality of second blades is between 10% and 45% of a length of each of the plurality of first blades.

A fan assembly including a fan frame and an impeller. The fan frame includes a frame body and a first peripheral protruding plate and has an air inlet and an air outlet. The first peripheral protruding plate protrudes from a side of the frame body and forms an air channel together with the frame body. The first peripheral protruding plate is configured to reduce a noise made by the fan assembly. The air inlet is in fluid communication with the air outlet via the air channel. The impeller is rotatably disposed on the frame body and located in the air channel. The protruding height of the first peripheral protruding plate relative to the frame body ranges from 50 to 100 percent of an overall axial thickness of the impeller.

Methods and apparatus for blowing out birthday candles are presented. The apparatus may include a rotor comprising at least two blades and attachable to a wind-up launcher for imparting a rotational impulse to the rotor. Each blade of the rotor may include a blade scoop extending from a central hub of the rotor to an outer safety ring positioned around an outer circumference of the rotor and coupled to each of the central hub and the outer safety ring. The blade scoop may have a convex shaped leading edge. The blade may also include a blade overhang for pushing air from the blade scoop out from the rotor. The blade overhang may have a trailing edge positioned below the central hub, with a portion of the blade forming the trailing edge having a tangent that is angled between 30 and 60 degrees below a plane of the outer safety ring.
