A fan assembly includes a body 12 mounted on a base 22 for movement between an un-tilted position and a tilted position. The body includes an air inlet, an impeller and a motor for driving the impeller to draw an air flow through the air inlet. The fan assembly also includes an air outlet and an interior passage for conveying air to the air outlet, and which extends about an opening through which air from outside the fan assembly is drawn by air emitted from the air outlet. A brake 150 and a stop member, in the form of a stationary rail 160 are disposed on the upper surface of the base, and a rail is connected to the lower surface of the body and located between the brake and the stationary rail. The brake is urged by a spring 162 or other resilient member towards the stationary rail to urge the rail of the body against the stationary rail to maintain the body in a tilted position by means of friction between the rails. |
