Variable-pitch propeller or fan.

摘要

A variable-pitch propeller or fan comprises a hollow boss, a number of propeller blades fitted rotatably on the boss, and also an adjusting element which is axially slidable in the boss and has a number of grooves running essentially at right angles to the direction of sliding, each propeller or fan blade having a control pin which is placed eccentrically relative to its rotary shaft and is slidingly accommodated in a groove of the adjusting element. In order to increase the range of adjustment each groove comprises an essentially straight part and also a second part connecting to the straight part and forming an angle with the essentially straight part. <IMAGE>
