A ceiling fan or similar air-moving device can include a motor for rotating one or more blades to drive a volume of air about a space. A mounting kit can be used to secure the ceiling fan to a structure. The mounting kit can be corded instead of hard-wired to the structure electrical supply, which provides the user with the freedom to mount the ceiling fan at any desired location, without being limited to an electrical junction box location.

Ceiling fan mounting kit

A ceiling fan or similar air-moving device can include a motor for rotating one or more blades to drive a volume of air about a space. A connector can be used to connect the blade to a blade iron to mount the blade to the motor. The connector can include a set of receptacles configured to insert into openings on the blade, with the set of receptacles connected by a set of arms. A set of mount posts on the blade iron can seat within the receptacles to mount the blade to the blade iron.

Ceiling fan, blade, and blade connector

A ceiling fan assembly or similar air-moving device can include a motor for rotating one or more blades to drive a volume of air about a space. The ceiling fan assembly can include a motor assembly and a light kit. The light kit can include a light frame and a light glass holder. The light frame can selectively couple to the light glass holder by a threaded connection. The light kit, motor assembly, or between the light kit and motor assembly can further include one or more sealing or deflecting components.

Ceiling fan sealing assembly

A motor adapter assembly can couple a motor shaft for a ceiling fan motor to a downrod. The motor adapter assembly can include a base plate, a cradle with arms extending through the base plate, and a threaded bushing secured between the arms of the cradle. Threading a cap to the threaded bushing can be used to pivot the downrod between an upright position and a pivoted position.

Ceiling fan motor adapter

A ceiling fan assembly having a motor with a rotor and a stator, at least one blade operably coupled to the stator, a motor shaft extending from the stator and having an internal wire passage and a wire opening in a side of the motor shaft, with the wire opening providing access to the internal wire passage, a control mounting plate having a motor shaft opening through which the motor shaft extends and an electronic control unit carried by a side of the control mounting plate.

Ceiling fan with mounting plate

A ceiling fan assembly or similar air-moving device can include a motor for rotating one or more blades to drive a volume of air about a space. The ceiling fan assembly can include a ceiling fan mount with a dual axis gimble. The dual axis gimble can be received by a mounting bracket so that at least a first and second axis of rotation are provided to the ceiling fan assembly.

Ceiling fan with mounting assembly

A ceiling fan assembly or similar air-moving device can include a motor for rotating one or more blades to drive a volume of air about a space. The ceiling fan assembly can include a housing including a first portion and a second portion, whereby the first portion selectively couples to the second portion. The housing can further include one or more sealing or deflecting components.

A ceiling fan can include a motor having a rotor defining a rotational axis and a rotor periphery. At least one blade iron is mounted to the rotor and includes a first blade mount located radially exterior of the rotor periphery and a second blade mount located radially interior of the rotor periphery. A blade mounts to the blade iron at both the first blade mount and the second blade mount.

Ceiling fan

A ceiling fan includes a fan motor housing; a motor positioned within the motor housing; a plurality of fan blades rotatable by the motor; a fan controller and a wired remote control. The fan controller includes a printed circuit board (PCB) having a wireless communication module and an electronic circuit coupled with the wireless communication module and is configured to control the motor to rotate the plurality of fan blades. The wired remote control device is coupled to the printed circuit board and is configured to send user selected signals to the electronic circuit on a first frequency. The electronic circuit is configured to be responsive to signals from the wired remote control device on the first frequency and to be responsive to signals from the wireless communication module on a second frequency.
