An embodiment of the utility model proposes a hand-held fan, including a main housing 1. The main housing 1 includes a cylindrical holding part 11 and a semi-cylindrical mounting part 12. A fan blade 21 for rotation is mounted at the mounting part 12. A motor 22 for driving the fan blade 21 to rotate, a battery 5 for supplying power to the motor 22, and a PCB main control board 6 for controlling the motor 22 to be turned on/off are mounted inside the main housing. The motor 22 and the battery 5 are electrically connected to the PCB main control board 6 respectively.

The hand-held fan also includes a set of protection covers 3 provided at the mounting part 12. The main body of the protection cover 3 is provided as a semi-cylindrical cover-shaped structure adapted to the mounting part 12. The protection cover 3 is also provided with a connecting part 31 rotatably connected to the mounting part 12. The outer side of the mounting part 12 is opened and provided with an annular slot 121. The connecting part 31 is provided with a plurality of catch platforms 32 clamped and connected to the annular slots 121. Two limit grooves 122 are symmetrically provided in the annular slot 121 along a rotating axial direction of the fan blade 21. The inner side of the connecting part 31 is provided with two limit bosses 33 clamped and connected to the two limit grooves 122.

It should be noted that most of the protection covers outside the fan blade of the existing hand-held fan have a grid-shaped fixed structure. The structure of the protection cover is fixed and is not removable. To ensure that the fan blade has an enough space for movement, the protection cover has a large volume, resulting in the overall large volume of the fan. Therefore, it is very inconvenient to carry. In addition, in a process of long-time use, a large amount of dust and impurities are accumulated on the fan blade. Due to fixed protection cover, the fan blade cannot be effectively cleaned up, which affects the smoothness of the rotation of the fan blade and reduces a user's experience.

This embodiment improves the structure of the protection cover 3 of the hand-held fan based on the defects in the above prior art. Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, the protection cover 3 is mounted on the main housing 1 in a sliding connection manner. When the fan blade 21 needs to blow wind, the protection cover 3 is rotated, which may expose the fan blade 21 for blowing wind. When there is no need to use the fan blade 21 for blowing wind, the protection cover 3 is rotated again and may hide the fan blade 21 therein, which protects the fan blade 21 and is convenient to use. In addition, the holding part 11 of the main housing 1 adopts a cylindrical structure. The mounting part 12 adopts a semi-cylindrical structure. The protection cover 3 is sleeved on the mounting part 12 and forms one cylindrical structure with the mounting part 12, so that the fan is in the form of one cylindrical capsule-shaped structure, which has a compact volume, is convenient to carry, and improves the user's experience.

Further, referring to FIGS. 3 and 4, in this embodiment, the main housing 1 is opened and provided with an annular slot 121. The protection cover 3 is clamped and connected to the annular slot 121 via the catch platform 32 on the connecting part 31 so that the protection cover 3 is connected to the main housing 1. In addition, the catch platform 32 may be slid within the annular slot 121, which realizes the relative rotation between the protection cover 3 and the main housing 1, and complete the exposing and concealing of the fan blade 21.

Further, to ensure that when the protection cover 3 is opened, the fan blade 21 is completely exposed, and when the protection cover 3 is closed, the fan blade 21 is completely hidden, two limit grooves 122 for rotatably positioning the protection cover 3 are added in the annular groove 121. The two limit grooves 122 are stacked and provided along the rotating axial direction of the fan blade 21, respectively. The inner side of the connecting part 31 of the protection cover 3 is correspondingly added with the limit boss 33 adaptively clamped and connected to the limit groove 122 so that the protection cover 3 has two rotational positioning points. The two rotational positioning points correspondingly reveal the fan and hide the fan, which facilitates the user's operation, and improves the convenience of use.

Further, a drive shaft 221 of the motor 22 extends to an outer side of the mounting part 12. The drive shaft 221 is connected to a mounting member 23 for mounting the fan blade 21.
