20200378393 · 2020-12-03 ·

The invention relates to a combined ceiling fan and light fixture, wherein the roots of the plurality of blades of the ceiling fan are respectively fixedly connected to a plurality of rotating components correspondingly arranged on the impeller. Each rotating component comprises a synchronous wheel, and all synchronous wheels are distributed on the bottom of the impeller with the wheel center of the impeller as the array center. Any two adjacent synchronous wheels are connected to each other by a swinging rod so that all the synchronous wheels move in the same direction with the corresponding blades. At least one swinging rod is connected with a spring for pulling the swinging rod back in the opposite direction of the centrifugal force of the blade to drive all the blades to be synchronously folded on the top of the impeller when the motor stops. The blade retraction mechanism of the invention has the advantages of high transmission precision, good operational stability, low noise and low cost.

RADIATOR FAN

10670043 · 2020-06-02 ·

A folding and unfolding structure of blade of a ceiling fan includes a driving device, a rotary member, multiple connection arms, multiple fixed arms, multiple extension arms, multiple elastic members and multiple blades. The rotary member rotates synchronously with the driving device. One end of the connection arm is connected to the rotary member, and the other end of the connection arm is pivotably connected to one end of an extension arm by a first pivot. One end of the fixed arm is connected to a blade, and the other end of the fixed arm is pivotably connected to the other end of an extension arm by a second pivot. The elastic members are provided between the extension arms and the connection arms to restricting outward expansion of the extension arms, such that the extension arms are pivoted upward about the first pivots and move close to the rotary member.

ALTERNATOR COOLING FAN WITH ADJUSTABLE PITCH
20200080567 · 2020-03-12 ·

A cooling fan for an alternator. The cooling fan has a fan body and a plurality of fan blades extending from the fan body. A hinge is located where each one of the fan blades meets the fan body. The hinge allows the plurality of fan blades to pivot relative to the fan body. The degree of pivot is proportional to rotational speed of the fan body.

Torque-sensitive locking and release mechanism for a bistable pitch propeller

A bistable pitch propeller includes a ball, a spring, and a clutch module where the clutch module has a range of rotational movement between a locked end position and a released end position. The clutch module includes a detent, where the ball sits inside and outside of the detent when the clutch module is in the locked end position and released end position, respectively. In response to an input torque and a spring force from the spring, the clutch module rotates toward the released end position and the locked end position, respectively. The bistable pitch propeller also includes an aircraft blade where the aircraft blade is at the first pitch angle and the second pitch angle when the clutch module is in the locked end position and the released end position, respectively.

Blade for a variable pitch fan

A fan blade is mounted on a shaft or arranged to vary in pitch via rotation about a pitching axis. The fan blade is mounted with a center of mass offset from the shaft or pitching axis. This offset reduces torque around the shaft or pitching axis.
