PLASTIC FAN SHROUD AND CONE ASSEMBLY AND METHOD

摘要

A method of manufacturing a housing assembly for a fan portion. According to the method, a three dimensional monolithic shroud assembly is formed which has a shroud having a face-wall that substantially defines a face-wall plane and an orifice wall extending from the face-wall in a first direction. The shroud assembly has a door operable to close a passage defined at least by the orifice wall and a magnetic pocket on one of the orifice wall or the door including at least one open end to receive a magnetic assembly. The shroud assembly further has a striker pocket on one of the door or the orifice wall configured to contain a striker member. The door is separated from the monolithic shroud assembly and the striker pocket is placed adjacent the magnet pocket.
