Abstract
A diagonal fan for gaseous media has a diagonal impeller with a plurality of vanes, which are fastened on a carrier plate, and a guide device, adjoining the diagonal impeller in the axial direction on the outflow side, for increasing the pressure of the medium, with a plurality of guide vanes. The vanes of the diagonal impeller and/or the guide vanes of the guide device are three-dimensionally twisted. By means of an intake unit, the gaseous medium can be directed into the diagonal impeller. The intake unit and/or an exhaust unit, by means of which the gaseous medium can be directed out of the guide device, is, or are, provided as an exchangeable module and can be fastened on the diagonal fan by means of a fastening element.
Description
- This application claims the benefit of German Patent Application No. 10 2010 032 168.0, filed Jul. 23, 2010, which is incorporated by reference herein.
- The invention refers to a diagonal fan, by means of which a flow medium, which consists of air or other gases, can be delivered from the inside diagonally outwards. Such fans can be installed at the start, inside, or at the end of pipelines, for example, wherein the field of application of the diagonal fan according to the invention is not limited just to use in pipeline systems.
- For example, pipe fans, which have an exhaust unit and an axially symmetrical intake unit, between which is fastened a motor with radial impeller attached, are known. In order to adapt the pipe fan to different cross sections of pipeline systems, for example, a large part of the housing of the pipe fan has to be exchanged in each case. Consequently, the transitions between the intake unit and the radial impeller are generally of a fluidically unfavorable design and have steps and larger gaps. These pipe fans generally have no guide devices, or only rudimentary guide devices, so that the flow medium which leaves the radial impeller can be straightened again only in an unsatisfactory manner and the efficiency of the pipe fan decreases further.
- A pipe fan, in which a guide device for increasing the pressure of the flow medium adjoins the diagonal impeller in the axial direction, is known from DE 203 19 749 U1. The diagonal fan has a diagonal impeller with vanes which are fastened laterally on a carrier plate and on a cover plate. The flow medium flows in the axial direction into the fan and flows through the diagonal impeller and as a result also flows through the vanes in the diagonal direction.
- Adapting to different cross sections of pipeline systems or to different fields of application is usually possible only by means of an individual construction, which leads to higher production costs. If different cross sections or fields of application are to be offered, the entire fan often has to be adapted, which can lead to high development costs. Furthermore, high storage costs result for the large number of different components which are required for the construction of the fans.
- Diagonal fans which can be adapted to different line cross sections by means of an adapter are furthermore offered. These adapters are usually mounted on the diagonal fan on the inflow side and outflow side so that the overall size increases proportionally. Also, the adapters are not an integral component part of the diagonal fan, but rather are to enable removal of the diagonal fan—for maintenance purposes or cleaning purposes, for example—from the pipeline system without the adapters also having to be removed from the pipeline system.
- Starting from this previously known prior art, the invention is based on the object of disclosing an improved fan which has a compact construction and can be used as universally as possible.
- The diagonal fan according to the invention has a diagonal impeller with a plurality of vanes which are fastened on a carrier plate. A guide device for increasing the pressure of the medium adjoins the diagonal impeller in the axial direction on the outflow side. Furthermore, the diagonal fan has an intake unit which directs the gaseous medium into the diagonal impeller, and, if applicable, an exhaust unit which directs the gaseous medium out of the guide device. Intake unit and/or exhaust unit is, or are, provided as exchangeable modules. In this case, only the intake unit or only the exhaust unit can be provided as an exchangeable module. Alternatively to this, both the intake unit and the exhaust unit can also be provided as exchangeable modules in each case.
- The vanes of the diagonal impeller and/or the guide vanes of the guide device have two-dimensionally curved surfaces which are characterized in that they can no longer be developed upon a purely two-dimensional plane of Euclidian geometry. In practice, such vane geometries are also referred to as three-dimensionally twisted vanes.
- The fastening of intake unit and exhaust unit on the diagonal fan is carried out by means of at least one fastening element for the accurate positioning and mounting of the exchangeable modules. The fan, therefore, can already be easily manipulated even before installation into a pipeline system, for example, which in particular makes installation and alignment of the fan easier.
- The modular design according to the invention of the diagonal fan enables a compact construction and universal use of the fan. The central components—being the diagonal impeller and the guide device, with motor installed if necessary—can be fluidically optimized so that high efficiency of the fan, and consequently also a reduced noise loading, can be realized. At the same time, as a result of the exchangeable modular components—being the intake unit and the exhaust unit—an economically favorable adaptation of the fan to different pipe cross sections or to different fields of application, for example, can be carried out without having to reconstruct and fluidically optimize the entire diagonal fan. The individual modular components can be fluidically optimized independently of each other and can be adapted to the central components in each case so that the transition between the intake unit and the diagonal impeller, for example, is carried out as smoothly and steplessly as possible.
- By means of the invention, provision can be made for a complete diagonal fan with fluidically optimized air guiding, which, particularly as a result of the three-dimensionally twisted (two-dimensionally curved) vanes of the diagonal impeller or of the guide device, achieves high efficiency and, as a result, a very low energy consumption. As a result of the design of the three-dimensionally twisted (two-dimensionally curved) vanes, allowance can optimally be made for the different flow velocities and inflow directions particularly at the inlet and outlet of the vanes. At the same time, as a result of the modular design a compact fan of comparatively small construction and with low noise development is created.
- The fastening elements between the modular components and the central components of the diagonal fan can have, for example, at least one adhesive connection or at least one welded connection. In the case of the welded connection, it can especially be an ultrasonic welded connection. The fastening element can preferably have at least one mechanical coupling element. Such a fastening can usually be produced in a permanently reliable and simple manner.
- The mechanical coupling elements can have at least one screw connection, for example. In the case of such a screw connection, it is conceivable to provide a first screw for the fastening of the intake unit to a central component of the diagonal fan and a second screw for the fastening of the exhaust unit to the same component or to another central component of the diagonal fan. In contrast to this, use could also be made of only a single screw which can be formed with such length that a connection of intake unit, central component of the diagonal fan and exhaust unit is possible with this screw. For improving stability, provision can be made for a plurality of such screw connections in a circumferentially distributed arrangement on the diagonal fan, wherein especially five to six screw connections can be formed.
- Furthermore, the mechanical coupling elements can also have at least one clamping band connection which can be provided alternatively to or in addition to the screw connection. For example, the guide device and the exhaust unit can have in each case an outwardly pointing flange which but against each other in the installed state. The two abutting flanges could be encompassed by a clamping band in this position and so be fastened in a manner in which they press against each other.
- The mechanical coupling elements can also have at least one clip-in connection in addition to or alternatively to this. In this case, the exhaust unit and the intake unit, for example, can have in each case at least one clip-in lever which can be clipped into a corresponding recess or undercut of the guide device, for example. Fastening can consequently be carried out very quickly and without tools. For improving stability, provision can be made for a plurality of such clip-in levers in a circumferentially distributed arrangement. Instead of a plurality of individual clip-in levers, an encompassing locking ring could also be provided. In the case of the design of such a locking ring, a good seal between the central components and the modular components is furthermore possible, which additionally increases the efficiency of the diagonal fan.
- Alternatively to or in addition to the aforesaid embodiments, provision can also be made for at least one threaded connection. In this case, either the guide device or the exchangeable module could have a female thread, and the corresponding other component would be formed with a matching male thread. This embodiment can be advantageous especially when no alignment of the intake unit, for example, has to be carried out, that is to say especially when this has a circular intake opening.
- The fastening element can preferably be a component part of the housing of the guide device. The fastening element can especially be a component part of the housing outer wall of the guide device.
- In one advantageous embodiment, the intake unit can be a component part of the housing of the diagonal impeller. The entire housing of the diagonal impeller can especially be realized by the intake unit. This embodiment enables a particularly compact construction of the diagonal fan, in which extremely favorable flow paths are possible. The power which is generated by the diagonal fan is therefore concentrated on a small area, as a result of which the efficiency of the fan also increases. Furthermore, the production costs can be further reduced.
- The modular design of the diagonal fan according to the invention enables application in many different technical fields. In addition to use as a pipe fan, it is also conceivable, for example, to use the diagonal fan as a roof fan. For this purpose, the diagonal fan would have to be equipped only with a corresponding exhaust unit which protects the diagonal fan which is provided on a roof of a building against weather influences so that no rain water can penetrate into the diagonal fan. The size of the roof fan would correspond approximately to the size of a comparable diagonal fan which is designed as a pipe fan so that a very compact construction still results.
- Also, a sound-insulated design of a pipe fan, for example, is possible in a comparatively simple way by the central components being equipped with a sound-insulated exhaust unit and a sound-insulated intake unit.
- Both the vanes of the guide device and the vanes of the diagonal impeller can be of a profiled design so that the vanes, even outside of the optimum operating range, are more insensitive to inflow directions which deviate from the optimum. The profiling of the vanes can furthermore lead to a further increase of efficiency. The profiling of the vanes is an essentially steady increase of the vane cross section up to a maximum and an essentially steady decrease of the vane cross section after it. The maximum of the vane cross section can already lie very close to one of the vane edges, comparable to an aircraft wing.
- The vanes of the guide device and/or the vanes of the diagonal impeller can preferably have rounded leading edges. In this case, the trailing edge of each vane can taper off.
- Further advantages and features of the invention are to be gathered from the features which are additionally disclosed in the claims and also from the subsequent exemplary embodiments.
- The invention is described and explained in more detail in the following text based on the exemplary embodiments which are shown in the drawing. In the drawing:

FIG. 11 shows a section through a diagonal fan, designed as a roof fan, according to the invention, and -
FIG. 12 shows a section through a sound-insulated diagonal fan, designed as a pipe fan, according to the invention. - The
diagonal fan 10 has adiagonal impeller 12 which is provided on the inflow side of thefan 10. On the outflow side of thediagonal impeller 12, aguide device 14 is formed and, adjoining this, adiffuser 16 is formed inside thefan 10. Thediagonal impeller 12 in the present exemplary case is enclosed by anintake unit 18 which on one side forms the housing of thediagonal impeller 12 and on the other side is connected to apipe 20 of a pipeline which is not additionally shown here. On the outflow side, thediffuser 16 is formed by anexhaust unit 22. Theexhaust unit 22 on one side is fastened on the housingouter wall 24 of theguide device 14 and on the other side is connected to apipe 26 of a pipeline which is not additionally shown either. In the present exemplary case, the diameter A of the twopipes - The connection of the
intake unit 18 to thepipe 20, in common with the connection of theexhaust unit 22 to thepipe 26, can be realized in any way known from the prior art. In the present exemplary case, thepipe 20 has been pulled over theintake unit 18, in the same way as in the case of thepipe 26 which has been pulled over theexhaust unit 22. In contrast to this, a flange connection or a connection by means of a sleeve, for example, would also be conceivable. - The gaseous flow medium which is forced through the
fan 10 by means of thediagonal impeller 12 flows around a central interior space of thefan 10 which is inwardly delimited by thecarrier plate 30 of thediagonal impeller 12 and by anintermediate casing 32 which is connected to thecarrier plate 30 in a streamlined manner. Thecarrier plate 30 is curved in the axial direction on the outflow side so that this buts against the axially alignedintermediate casing 32 in a streamlined manner. The flow medium therefore flows past thecarrier plate 30 and theintermediate casing 32 radially on the outside. - The
diagonal impeller 12 has circumferentially distributedvanes 34 which by their one side are fastened on thecarrier plate 30 and by their opposite other side are fastened on acover plate 36. Thevanes 34 in the present exemplary case are of a cross-sectionally profiled and three-dimensionally twisted (two-dimensionally curved) design. The inflow-side leading edge of thevanes 34 is oriented approximately perpendicularly to the flow direction of the flow medium which flows onto it and is provided with a rounding. The outflow-side trailing edge of thevanes 34 is also oriented approximately perpendicularly to the diagonal flow which leaves it on the outflow side. - The
cover plate 36 of thediagonal impeller 12 widens a little on the inflow side so that theintake unit 18 can fit round thediagonal impeller 12 from the outside by an inlet nozzle 38 and a streamlined transition ofintake unit 18 anddiagonal impeller 12 can be achieved. Between the inlet nozzle 38 of theintake unit 18 and thecover plate 36 of thediagonal impeller 12, there is anannular gap 40 which on account of thestationary intake unit 18 and the rotatingdiagonal impeller 12 cannot be avoided. There is a further annular gap 42 between the outflow-side end of thecover plate 36 and thehousing wall 44 of theintake unit 18. Theannular gaps 40, 42 are formed narrow to the extent that there can be no development of an annular flow extending through the space 46 betweendiagonal impeller 12 andintake unit 18. - If necessary, provision could also be made for one or more sealing elements behind the
annular gaps 40, 42 in order to prevent such an annular flow being able to develop. Alternatively to or in addition to this, provision could also be made for angled annular gaps which would constitute a flow labyrinth. - In contrast to the exemplary embodiment which is shown here, the
cover plate 36 could also be dispensed with. The vanes of such a diagonal impeller in this case would only be fastened on the carrier plate of this. The outer limit in this case could be realized by an inlet nozzle of the intake unit, for example, which is extended further inwards and therefore on the outflow side. - The flow which leaves the
diagonal impeller 12 then flows through the region of theguide device 14. In this section of thefan 10,stationary guide vanes 50 are arranged in a circumferentially distributed manner between theintermediate casing 32 and the housingouter wall 24. By means of theguide vanes 50, the flow which leaves thediagonal impeller 12 in a helical, diagonal direction is deflected into an axial flow direction. Just like thevanes 34 of thediagonal impeller 12, theguide vanes 50 in the present exemplary case are also of a profiled and three-dimensionally twisted (two-dimensionally curved) design. - In contrast to the exemplary embodiment which is shown here, the profiling in the
vanes 34 and/or in theguide vanes 50 could also be dispensed with. - Located in the
interior space 52 which is formed by thecarrier plate 30 of thediagonal impeller 12 or by theintermediate casing 32 of theguide device 14 is amotor 54 which drives thediagonal impeller 12 by means of ashaft 56. Themotor 54 is flanged on a motor mounting 58 which projects from the,intermediate casing 32 into theinterior space 52. - The
diffuser 16 is formed downstream of theguide device 14 on the outflow side of this. Thediffuser 16 is constructionally realized by means of an annular flow passage, becoming larger on the outflow side, between themotor cover 60 and thehousing wall 62 of theexhaust unit 22. Themotor cover 60 is fastened on theintermediate casing 32 of theguide device 14 by means of a plurality of screws, which are not shown here, and closes off theinterior space 52 on the outflow side. - The fastening of
intake unit 18 andexhaust unit 22 on the housingouter wall 24 of theguide device 14 is realized by means of afastening element 70 which in the present exemplary case has a plurality of screw connections 72 (see alsoFIG. 3 ), of which only twoscrew connections 72 are shown in the present exemplary case. - For this purpose, the housing
outer wall 24 of theguide device 14 is equipped with athreadless screw dome 74 which is formed over the entire length of the housingouter wall 24. Thehousing wall 44 of theintake device 18 is equipped with acomparable screw dome 76. Afurther screw dome 78, which in contrast to the screw domes 74 and 76 is formed as a blind hole and has a smaller inside diameter, is located on thehousing wall 62 of theexhaust unit 22. By means of ascrew 80, all three components—being theintake unit 18,guide device 14 andexhaust unit 22—can be quickly and reliably fastened to each other by thescrew 80 being screwed into thescrew dome 78. - A plurality of
such screw connections 72 should preferably be provided in a circumferentially distributed arrangement in theguide device 14, in theintake unit 18 and in the exhaust unit in order to enable a stable fastening. Provision may be made for altogether four or fivescrew connections 72, for example. - The
intake unit 18 andexhaust unit 22 of thediagonal fan 10 are therefore designed as exchangeable modules and can be adapted to the respective connection circumstances. If thediagonal fan 10 is to be connected to a pipeline system with a larger pipe diameter, for example, the central components—being thediagonal impeller 12,guide device 14 andmotor 54—can remain unaltered. Only theintake unit 18 and theexhaust unit 22 would have to be correspondingly adapted. A corresponding installation situation is shown inFIG. 2 . - The diagonal fan 10.2 which is shown in
FIG. 2 differs from thediagonal fan 10 which is shown inFIG. 1 only as a result of the different modular components, these being the intake unit 18.2 and exhaust unit 22.2. The intake unit 18.2 and exhaust unit 22.2 in the present exemplary case are designed so that a connection of the diagonal fan 10.2 to a pipeline system with two pipes 20.2 and 26.2 with a diameter B of 200 millimeters in each case is possible. - The housing wall 62.2 of the exhaust unit 22.2 is therefore curved less sharply in comparison to the
housing wall 62 of theexhaust unit 22 so that the outflow-side discharge opening of the diagonal fan 10.2 is only slightly reduced in size. The fastening of the exhaust unit 22.2 on the housingouter wall 24 of theguide device 14 is again realized via ascrew connection 72. - Compared with this, the housing wall 44.2 of the intake unit 18.2 lies in a comparable curvature with regard to the
housing wall 44 of theintake unit 18. However, the inlet nozzle 38.2 is curved considerably more sharply than the inlet nozzle 38 in order to still enable a streamlined transition between the intake unit 18.2 and thediagonal impeller 12. - In contrast to the exemplary case which is shown here, the central components of the diagonal fan could also be equipped, for example, on the inflow side with the
intake unit 18 with a smaller diameter A and on the outflow side with the exhaust unit 22.2 with a larger diameter B. The diameter of the pipeline system in this case would increase downstream of the diagonal fan. The diagonal fan could therefore at the same time also serve as an adapter for the connection of two pipes with different diameter or even cross section. - An alternative screw connection 72.4 is shown in
FIG. 3 . In the case of thescrew connection 72,4, the intake unit 18.4 is fastened on the housing outer wall 24.4 of the guide device 14.4 by means of ascrew 82. The exhaust unit 22.4 is fastened on the housing outer wall 24.4 of the guide device 14.4 by means of afurther screw 82. For this, the intake unit 18.4 and the exhaust unit 22.4 have in each case ascrew dome - In addition to the
screw connections 72, 72.4,other fastening elements 70, which are shown inFIGS. 5 to 10 , are also possible in principle. - According to
FIG. 5 , the intake unit 18.5 and the guide device 14.5 are fastened to each other by means of a clampingband connection 100. For this, the intake unit 18.5, on its outflow-side end face, has an approximately outwardly pointingflange 102. The guide device 14.5, on its inflow-side end face, also has an approximately radially outwardly pointingflange 104. The twoflanges clamping band 106 and fastened to each other. - A comparable
clamping band connection 100 could also be provided between the guide device 14.5 and the exhaust unit, A clampingband connection 100 can be advantageous especially when the pipe cross section, which is to be connected to the diagonal fan, is circular, so that the intake unit and the exhaust unit do not have to be exactly aligned. - In
FIG. 6 , a threadedconnection 110 between intake unit 18.6 and the guide device 14.6 is shown. Such a threadedconnection 110 is also ideal particularly in the case of circular pipe cross sections. The intake unit 18.6 in the present exemplary case is provided with amale thread 112, and the guide device 14.6 correspondingly has afemale thread 114. The exhaust unit could also be fastened by such a threadedconnection 110 on the guide device 14.6. - The
fastening element 70 could furthermore also be designed as a clip-inconnection 120. InFIG. 7 , a clip-inconnection 120 between the guide device 14.7 and the exhaust unit 22.7 is shown. The guide device 14.7, on its outflow-side end face, has a clip-inlever 122. This clip-inlever 122 can engage in an undercut 124 which is located on the inner wall of the exhaust unit 22.7. Whereas inFIG. 7 only a single clip-inconnection 120 is shown, as a rule a plurality of clip-inconnections 120 are arranged in a circumferentially distributed manner in order to enable a stable fastening of theexhaust unit 22,7 on the guide device 14.7. - A particularly stable and at the same time also satisfactorily sealing fastening can be realized via a clip-in connection 120.8 which is shown in
FIG. 8 , in which instead of the clip-inlever 122 an encompassing locking ring 122.8 is formed on the guide device 14.8. The exhaust unit 22.8 correspondingly has an encompassing undercut 124.8 in which the locking ring 122.8 can engage, In order to enable an exact alignment of the exhaust unit 22.8, the encompassing locking ring and the encompassing undercut could be broken in each case at at least one point so that fastening is possible only in a defined position of exhaust unit and guide device in relation to each other. - In
FIG. 9 , anadhesive connection 130 between the guide device 14.9 and the intake unit 18.9 or the exhaust unit 22.9 is shown. For this purpose, on its outflow-side end wall the housing wall 44.9 of the intake unit 18.9 has anannular tongue 132. The inflow-side end wall of the housing outer wall 24.9 of the guide device 14.9 has anannular groove 134 in conformance with this. Theannular tongue 132 can be inserted into theannular groove 134 and adhesively fixed with a suitable adhesive. Anannular tongue 136 is located on the outflow-side end wall of the housing outer wall 24.9 of the guide device 14.9. The inflow-side end wall of the housing wall 62.9 of the exhaust unit 22.9 correspondingly has anannular groove 138 into which theannular tongue 136 of the guide device 14.9 can be inserted and adhesively fixed. - In contrast to the exemplary embodiment which is shown here, the housing outer wall of the guide device could also have an annular tongue in each case or an annular groove in each case in both its end faces.
- In
FIG. 10 , an ultrasonic weldedconnection 140 between an intake unit 18.10 and a guide device 14.10 is shown. For this, the intake unit 18.10, on its outflow-side end face, has an approximately radially outwardly pointingflange 142 with awelding projection 144. The guide device 14.10, on its inflow-side end face, also has an approximately radially outwardly pointingflange 146. By means of an ultrasonic welding process, the twoflanges - The
different fastening elements 70 in principle can be combined with each other. Also, the fastening between the intake unit and the guide device can be realized by means of afirst fastening element 70 and the fastening of the guide device on the exhaust unit can be realized by means of asecond fastening element 70. - In addition to the
fastening elements 70 which are shown here, ascrew connection 72 and 72.4, clampingband connection 100, threadedconnection 110, clip-inconnection 120 and 120.8,adhesive connection 130 and ultrasonic weldedconnection 140, are also further forms of fastening which are conceivable. - A further application possibility of a diagonal fan 10.11 according to the invention is shown in
FIG. 11 . The diagonal fan 10.11 is a roof ventilator which can be installed on the roof of a building, for example, in order to transport exhaust air from the building to the outside. The diagonal fan 10.11 differs from the diagonal fan 10.2 only on account of its exhaust unit 22.11. This exhaust unit 22.11 is not designed for connecting to a pipe, for example, rather the exhaust unit 22.11 constitutes a sealing element which prevents rain water, for example, being able to penetrate into the diagonal fan. For this, the housing wall 62.11 of the exhaust unit 22.11 has an approximately bell-shaped outer contour by means of which the flow medium which leaves the guide device is deflected and leaves the exhaust unit 22.11 in the direction of the roof surface, which is not shown here. The exhaust unit 22.11 closes off the diagonal fan 10.11 from the upper side as a result so that no rain water, dirt or snow can penetrate into the diagonal fan and the function of the diagonal fan 10.11 can also be ensured during adverse weather conditions. - In
FIG. 12 , a further application possibility of a diagonal fan 10.12 according to the invention is shown. The diagonal fan 10.12 is a pipe fan of sound-insulated design. For this, only an intake unit 18.12 which is equipped withsound insulation 150 has to be fastened on the guide device 14.4. Thesound insulation 150 in this case can include a sound-absorbing material. The screw connection 72.4 (see alsoFIG. 4 ) serves as thefastening element 70 in the present exemplary case. The streamlined adaptation of intake unit 18.12 to thediagonal impeller 12 is realized by means of the inlet nozzle 38.12. In a comparable way, an exhaust unit 22.12 which is equipped withsound insulation 150 is also fastened on theguide device 14. - In the exemplary case which is shown in
FIG. 12 , the motor cover 60.12 has also been designed differently in comparison to the exemplary embodiments which are shown inFIGS. 1 and 2 . In contrast to this, however, themotor cover 60 could also be used in a sound-insulated diagonal fan.
