Heat dissipating fan

摘要

A heat dissipating fan includes a housing having a base and a sidewall coupled to the base. The sidewall defines a compartment. The housing includes an air inlet, an air outlet and a dust channel. The air outlet includes opposite first and second end edges located at a same straight side of the housing. The housing defines a first plane. The impeller includes a hub and several blades. The impeller defines a second plane. The compartment of the housing includes an air outlet section and a pressure accumulating section. The air outlet section is located between the first and second planes. The air outlet is located in the air outlet section. The dust channel extends in an angle with respect to the second plane. An impeller is coupled to the stator that is coupled to the base. A control element includes a driving circuit and a rotating direction control circuit.

1. A heat dissipating fan comprising:
a housing including a base and a sidewall coupled to the base, with the sidewall defining a compartment of a generally cylindrical shape having an axis, with the housing further including an air inlet formed by open ends of the compartment, an air outlet extending in a radial direction from the compartment through the sidewall, and a dust channel extending in a radial direction from the compartment through the sidewall, with the air inlet, the air outlet and the dust channel being in communication with the compartment, with the air outlet including opposite first and second end edges in the sidewall parallel to and spaced from the axis, with the first and second end edges of the air outlet located at a same straight side of the housing, with the housing defining a first plane including the first and second end edges; an impeller including a hub extending along the axis and a plurality of blades coupled to an outer periphery of the hub, with the impeller defining a second plane including the axis of the hub, with the second plane parallel to and spaced from the first plane, with the compartment of the housing including an air outlet section and a pressure accumulating section on opposite sides of the second plane, with the air outlet section located between the first and second planes, with the air outlet located in the air outlet section and extending through the sidewall, with the dust channel located in the pressure accumulating section, with the impeller rotatable in a direction for heat dissipation purposes and rotatable in an opposite direction for dust removing purposes, and with the dust channel extending from the compartment in a tangential vector of the opposite direction; a stator coupled to the base of the housing, with the impeller rotatably coupled to the stator about the axis and located within the compartment; and a control element including a driving circuit electrically connected to the stator and a rotating direction control circuit electrically connected to the driving circuit.
