Fan blade

A fan includes a hub and a plurality of fan blades. The hub has an axle center. The fan blades are disposed around the hub. Each of the fan blades has a bent portion, and the bent portions of the fan blades are extended along a surrounding direction surrounding the axle center. The hub is welded with the bent portion of each of the fan blades along the surrounding direction. As a result, the number of fan blades is maximized, the strength is simultaneously ensured to be enough, and the advantages of effectively enhancing the fan characteristics are achieved.

A fan includes a hub and a blade assembly. The hub has a central portion and an extension portion. The extension portion is extended outwardly from a peripheral edge of the central portion. The blade assembly includes a plurality of blades. Each blade has a leading edge, each of the leading edges is an end point of each blade that is most close to the central portion. The blades are disposed around the hub. At least a part of the leading edges of the blades are connected to the extension portion, and distances between a center of the central portion and the leading edges of at least two blades are different. Therefore, the factors of fan and the quality of voice could be enhanced, and the multi-frequencies noise could be avoided during operation.

A bearing structure includes a plurality of wave-shaped grooves and an inner surface. The wave-shaped grooves are formed on the inner surface for receiving a lubricating fluid. Each of the wave-shaped grooves extends along a longitudinal axis of the bearing structure. Each of the wave-shaped grooves includes a first peak section, a second peak section, two first connecting sections, two second connecting sections and a trough section. The two first connecting sections are connected to opposite sides of the first peak section, and the two second connecting sections are connected to opposite sides of the second peak section. The trough section is disposed between the first peak section and the second peak section, and the trough section is connected to one of the first connecting sections and one of the second connecting sections. The first and second peak sections and the trough section have a circular arc structure.
