The chamber is inflated by intake of air through the air inlet to the first blower and then into the chamber, and the chamber is deflated by drawing air from the chamber to the second blower and then out of the chamber through the air outlet.

A fan assembly for a robot vacuum cleaner and a robot vacuum cleaner are provided. The fan assembly includes an electric motor, a stator impeller, a rotor impeller and a fan cover. The stator impeller defines a shaft hole, the electric motor is mounted on a side of the stator impeller, and an output shaft of the electric motor passes through the shaft hole. The fan cover is mounted on another side of the stator impeller, and an end surface of the fan cover away from the stator impeller defines an air inlet. The rotor impeller is mounted to the output shaft of the electric motor and located between the fan cover and the stator impeller.

A suction nozzle is provided for a fan with a suction opening for suctioning a fan main flow. The suction nozzle has an opening edge section adjoining the suction opening and having a local outbreak. A flow insert is detachably provided in the local outbreak of the opening edge section. The flow insert forms a bypass leading to the suction opening for a bypass flow leading to the fan main flow. Measuring means are provided in the bypass for the volume flow determination of the fan main flow. A confusor is provided in the bypass. The confusor is formed by a first web and a second web. The first web and the second web circumferentially face one another to form a nozzle channel in the bypass. The nozzle channel has a radially narrowest section. The measuring means are arranged in the radially narrowest section.

A blower includes a moving blade rotatable about a central axis, a motor to rotate the moving blade, a housing, and a substrate. The housing includes a holding portion below the moving blade to hold the motor, and a peripheral wall portion having a cylindrical shape extending upward from a radially outer end portion of the holding portion. The peripheral wall portion includes a peripheral wall recess recessed downward from an upper end of the peripheral wall portion and connecting a space radially inside and a space radially outside of the peripheral wall portion. The peripheral wall recess includes a first peripheral surface that opposes one circumferential direction opposite to a rotation direction of the moving blade, the first peripheral surface extending from an upper end of the peripheral wall recess toward a lower side of the peripheral wall portion.

An air guide arrangement, for a ventilation system, has a housing forming a flow channel with a fan arranged in the flow channel to generate an airflow through the housing. A flow guide device is arranged in the flow channels. The flow guide device is axially connected downstream of the fan on the outflow side and directly influences the airflow generated by the fan. The flow guide device has an axis-central through opening delimited by a tubular element extending parallel to the flow direction. Multiple separate flow segments are formed along the tubular element and are evenly distributed in the circumferential direction. The flow segments in the circumferential direction are each separated from one another in terms of flow by flow guide elements extending radially outward from the tubular element.

A blower for providing a supply of air at positive pressure in the range of approximately 2 cmH.sub.2O to 30 cmH.sub.20 includes a motor, at least one impeller, and a stationary component. The stationary component includes an inlet and an outlet. The motor, the impeller, the inlet and outlet are co-axial.

A supercharging device (20), having: a housing (21) which has a longitudinal axis (L); at least one housing inlet (1) which leads into the housing (21); at least one housing outlet (2) which leads out of the housing (21); at least one compressor wheel (5) which is arranged in a compressor chamber (15) and which is driven by a motor shaft (16) and which is arranged between the housing inlet (1) and the housing outlet (2) of the housing (21) as viewed in the flow direction, and at least one bypass duct (17) which is integrated in the housing (21) and which connects the housing inlet (1) to the housing outlet (2) so as to bypass the compressor chamber (15). The bypass duct (17) has a self-adjusting valve (22). The housing inlet (1) and the housing outlet (2) are formed as an axial inlet and an axial outlet respectively.

A fan assembly for a robot vacuum cleaner and a robot vacuum cleaner are provided. The fan assembly includes an electric motor, a stator impeller, a rotor impeller and a fan cover. The stator impeller defines a shaft hole, the electric motor is mounted on a side of the stator impeller, and an output shaft of the electric motor passes through the shaft hole. The fan cover is mounted on another side of the stator impeller, and an end surface of the fan cover away from the stator impeller defines an air inlet. The rotor impeller is mounted to the output shaft of the electric motor and located between the fan cover and the stator impeller.

A compressor housing for a turbocharger, which is composed of a scroll piece, a shroud piece, and an outer-circumferential annular piece. The scroll piece includes a through part constituting a discharge port, a first intermediate wall surface extended from an intake-side wall surface of a scroll chamber and smoothly connected with the discharge port, and a scroll outer-circumferential part. The outer-circumferential annular piece includes an outer-circumferential annular press-fit part press fitted into the scroll outer-circumferential part, and a protruding part bent from an outer-circumference-side wall surface of the scroll chamber. The protruding part is inserted into the through part to form an inner wall surface of an intermediate part that communicates the discharge port with the scroll chamber. Then, the compressor housing is fixed to a center housing that is made of iron with high rigidity through joining parts provided at the scroll piece.

A disclosed fan system includes a housing having side walls, an inflow side, and an outflow side; a fan secured in the housing by a mounting; and a backflow blocker mounted to the side walls within the housing on the outflow side of the housing partially blocking a cross-sectional area of the outflow side. The backflow blocker is positioned approximately centrally in a flow path of the housing and is configured to block part of an airflow cross section such that, between side walls of the housing and side walls of the backflow blocker, an annular duct is formed as an air passage. Further, the backflow blocker has a thickness that is greater than 5% of a width of the housing, and is less than 20% of an axial design height of the fan system.
