The present invention relates to an eccentric heat dispensing fan used for dispensing heat from CPU and includes inner blades and outer blades so as to increase the volume of the air blow to effectively dispense heat away from the CPU.
A conventional heat dispensing fan is shown in FIG. 1 and generally includes a base plate with a plurality of blades thereon.
The present invention intends to provide a heat dispensing fan that has curve blades arranged into two circles and the base plate has holes allowing air passing through.
In accordance with one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a heat dispensing fan which comprises a hub having a recess defined in a top thereof and communicating with a side outlet. Apertures are defined through the hub and communicate with the recess.
A fan member has a ring-shaped base plate and a protrusion extends from a center of a top of the base plate. A plurality of first curve blades extend from the protrusion and are located on a top of the base plate. A plurality of second curve blades are located on the top of the base plate and each first curve blade is connected to one of the second curve blades.
A top cap is connected to the hub and has a hole defined therethrough.
The present invention will become more obvious from the following description when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings which show, for purposes of illustration only, a preferred embodiment in accordance with the present invention.
Referring to
A fan member 11 has a ring-shaped base plate 18 and a protrusion 110 extends from a center of a top of the base plate 18. A plurality of first curve blades 15 extend from the protrusion 110 and located on a top of the base plate 18. A plurality of second curve blades 16 are located on the top of the base plate 18 and each first curve blade 15 is connected to one of the second curve blades 16. A top cap 12 is connected to the hub 10 and having a hole 17 defined therethrough.
Air can be sucked from the hole 17 in the top cap 12 and the apertures 17. Because the blades 15, 16 are curved so that the air flow can smoothly flow via the curve surface of the blades 15, 16 and out from the side outlet 14. The ring-shaped base plate 18 does not stop the air flow so that the air can be sucked into the hub 10 in a large amount and heat is brought out efficiently. A curvature of the first curve blades 15 is opposite to a curvature of the second curve blades 16.
While we have shown and described the embodiment in accordance with the present invention, it should be clear to those skilled in the art that further embodiments may be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.
