DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

[0012] Referring to FIGS. 1-7, the present invention provides, in a preferred embodiment, an electrical fan 100 having various supplies of electricity, which mainly comprises a housing 10, a motor 20, an impeller 30, a circuit board 40, a lithium battery 50, an electricity supply hole 60, a dry battery box 70, and a control switch 80.

[0013] Referring to FIGS. 1-5, the housing 10 is stably positionable on the ground or a flat surface.

[0014] Referring to FIG. 4, the motor 20 is securely arranged in the housing 10 to generate rotating power.

[0015] Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, the impeller 30 is located in an interior of the housing 10 and is connected to the motor 20 to be driven by the motor 20 to rotate.

[0016] Referring to FIGS. 1 and 6, the circuit board 40 is arranged in the interior of the housing 10 and is electrically connected with the motor 20. The circuit board 40 comprises a central processing unit (CPU) 41, a boost circuit 42, a motor controller 43, a charger circuit 44, and a power source identification circuit 45.

[0017] Referring to FIG. 1, the lithium battery 50 is arranged in the interior of the housing 10 and is electrically connected with the circuit board 40 to store electrical power therein.

[0018] Referring to FIG. 3, the electricity supply hole 60 is arranged on a back of the housing 10 and is electrically connected with the circuit board 40. In the instant embodiment, the electricity supply hole 60 is a Type-C electricity supply hole.

[0019] Referring to FIGS. 1 and 5, the dry battery box 70 is arranged in the interior of the housing 10 and is electrically connected with the circuit board 40, wherein the battery box 70 includes a cover (not shown), which is openable to allow for deposition or removal of a plurality of dry batteries 71 therein or therefrom.

[0020] Referring to FIG. 2, the control switch 80 is arranged on a front surface of the housing 10 and is electrically connected with the circuit board 40 to serve as an interface for a user to operate the present invention.

[0021] Thus, the above provides a description to various components of the electrical fan 100 having various supplies of electricity according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the way of assembly thereof, and in the following, the operation thereof will be described.

[0022] Firstly, as shown in FIG. 6, an external USB-C power supply 91 (which refers to electrical power fed in through a USB-C charging line), when supplied through the electricity supply hole 60 to the CPU 41 of the circuit board 40, is voltage-boosted through the boost circuit 42 to be then fed to the motor controller 43 to supply electrical power to the motor 20 to cause the motor 20 to generate rotating power for driving the impeller 30 to rotate thereby achieving an effect of generation of airflow or wind. Next, when the external USB-C power supply 91 is fed in, if, at this moment, the control switch 80 is not set ON, the USB-C power supply 91 so fed in is directed through the charger circuit 44 to get into the lithium battery 50 for carrying out electrical charging.

[0023] Next, as shown in FIG. 6, when the lithium battery 50 is set to provide lithium-battery power supply 92, the electrical power from the lithium battery 50 is supplied through the CPU 41 to the boost circuit 42 for voltage boosting and then fed to the motor controller 43, so as to supply electrical power to the motor 20 to cause the motor 20 to generate rotating power for driving the impeller 30 to rotate thereby achieving an effect of generation of airflow or wind.

[0024] Finally, as shown in FIG. 6, when the dry batteries 71 contained in the dry battery box 70 are set to provide 9V dry-battery power supply 93, the CPU directly feeds the electrical power to the motor controller 43 to supply electrical power to the motor 20 to cause the motor 20 to generate rotating power for driving the impeller 30 to rotate thereby achieving an effect of generation of airflow or wind.

[0025] Further, in the present invention, the circuit board 40 is provided with the power source identification circuit 45, and as shown in FIG. 7, either one of the USB-C power supply 91, the lithium-battery power supply 92, and the 9V dry-battery power supply 93 is first identified by the power source identification circuit 45 before being fed to the CPU 41, and a sequence of priority of use as being so identified is the USB-C power supply 91, the lithium-battery power supply 92, and the 9V dry-battery power supply 93.

[0026] Thus, the present invention provides three options of electricity supplies, and this allows a user to select in different environments, so that a range of application is greatly expanded, and the trouble of no availability of operation can be avoided.
