- a volume between the negative-pressure surface and the positive-pressure surface is defined as a thickness t of the blade body 231.
- the thickness of the blade body 231 is the thickest at a point at which the width of the blade 230 is bisected.
- a line bisecting the thickness of the blade 230 is defined as a camber line.
- Each of the uplift portions 232 is disposed from the inner edge 233 from the blade body 231 to the outer edge 234. Also, the uplift portion 232 protrudes in a shape having a width gradually decreasing upward or in a circularly rounded shape.
- Fig. 4 is a side view of a cross-flow fan according to an embodiment.
- the cross-flow fan 20 has a shape in which the plurality of blades 230 is radially arranged from a point spaced a predetermined distance from a rotation center.
- a mean camber line is defined by an inner blade tip angle ⁇ 1 and an outer blade tip angle ⁇ 2 of each of the blades 230.
- the inner blade tip angle ⁇ 1 represents an angle between a tangent line h1 of a circle passing through the inner edge 233 of the blade 230 and a tangent line h2 passing through the mean chamber line at the inner edge 233.
- the outer blade tip angel ⁇ 2 represents an angle between a tangent line h3 of a circle passing through the outer edge 234 of the blade 230 and a tangent line h4 passing through the mean camber line at the outer edge 234.
- Fig. 5 is an enlarged view illustrating a portion A of Fig. 3 .
- the plurality of uplift portions 232 is disposed on the blade 230 according to an embodiment with a predetermined distance.
- the uplift portions 232 protrude from the negative-pressure surface of the blade 230.
- each of the uplift portions 232 protrudes in a triangular shape having a width gradually decreasing upward.
- an end of the outer edge 234 side of at least the blade 230 of both ends of each of the uplift portions 232 is curved with the same curvature as that of an outer peripheral arc k of the cross-flow fan 20.
- the end of the outer edge 234 side of the blade 230 is referred to as an outer end
- an end of the inner edge 233 side of the blade 230 is referred to as an inner end.
- a cusp of the outer end of each of the uplift portions 232 is spaced a predetermined length p from the tangent line passing through the outer edge 234 of the blade 230. This occurs because the outer end of the uplift portion 232 is curved with the same curvature as that of the outer peripheral arc k of the cross-flow fan 20, and also may be clearly confirmed through Fig. 6 .
- the uplift portion 232 is disposed on the negative-pressure surface of the blade 230 and the outer end of at least the uplift portion 232 is curved with the same curvature as that of the outer peripheral arc k of the cross-flow fan 20, air passing through the cross-flow fan 20 may be reduced in turbulence intensity to significantly reduce noises.
- Fig. 6 is a sectional view taken along line I-I of Fig. 3 that illustrates a blade according to a first embodiment.
- an uplift portion 232 of a blade 230 has a section similar to that of a blade body 231.
- the blade 230 has two sections different from each other. That is to say, the section of the blade body 231 overlaps the section of the uplift portion 232.
- the uplift potion 232 has an inner edge and an outer edge.
- the uplift portion 232 has a chamber line bisecting a thickness thereof and a chord defining a width thereof.
- the blade 230 may have a sectional shape varied according to sizes of inner and outer blade tip angles ⁇ 1 and ⁇ 2 and inner and outer blade tip angles of the uplift portion.
- the blade body 231 has a chord length greater than that of the uplift portion 232. Also, the blade body 231 has the same inner and outer blade tip angles as those of the uplift portion 232.
- Fig. 7 is a schematic sectional view of a flow occurring on the blade according to the first embodiment.
- air forcedly flowing by the cross-flow fan 20 flows along a positive-pressure surface of the blade 23.
- the air flowing along the positive-pressure surface of the blade 23 is divided by the outer end of the blade 23.
- air discharged along a recessed surface of an inner side of the uplift portion 232 and a portion of air discharged along the positive-pressure surface of the blade body 231 are bent toward the negative-pressure surface of the blade 23. This is done because a pressure difference between the negative-pressure surface of the blade 23 and the positive-pressure surface of the blade body 231 occurs, and thus it has an influence on a flow of air flowing from a high pressure to a low pressure.
- the air bent at the outer end of the blade body 231 is interrupted by the air discharged at the end of the uplift portion 232. Therefore, the air flowing along the positive-pressure surface of the blade body 231 may be smoothly discharged, and thus, an amount of air may be increased as well as the noises may be reduced.
- Fig. 8 is a simulation comparing an airflow occurring in a cross-fan according to a related art to an airflow occurring in a cross-fan according to an embodiment.
- a left side of Fig. 8 illustrates an airflow occurring in a cross-flow fan region according to a related art
- a right side of Fig. 8 illustrates an airflow occurring in a cross-flow fan region according to an embodiment.
- Fig. 9 is a sectional view taken along line I-I of Fig. 3 that illustrates a blade according to a second embodiment.
- a blade body 231 has a chord length greater than that of an uplift portion 232. Also, the blade body 231 has the same inner blade tip angle as that of the uplift portion 232. However, the blade body 232 has an outer blade tip angle greater than that of the uplift portion.
- Fig. 10 is a sectional view taken along line I-I of Fig. 3 that illustrates a blade according to a third embodiment.
- a blade body 231 has the same chord length as that of an uplift portion 232. Also, the blade body 231 has the same outer blade tip angle as that of the uplift portion 232. However, the blade body 231 has an inner blade tip angle less than that of the uplift portion 232.
- the noises due to the air passing through the blade may be reduced. That is, the turbulence intensity at the discharge part of the fan block may be reduced to reduce the noises.
