A connection structure applied to a fan for connecting a metal member with a shaft by means of laser. The connection structure includes a metal member and a shaft. The metal member has an opening, a first side and a second side. The opening is formed through a center of the metal member. The shaft is inserted in the opening. An outer circumference of the shaft is welded with a circumference of the opening on the first side to form at least one first welding section between the contact sections of the outer circumference of the shaft and the circumference of the opening on the first side. The first welding section is connected between the outer circumference of the shaft and the circumference of the opening on the first side to integrally connect the metal member with the shaft. The connection structure applied to the fan can lower cost.

A fan vibration absorbing structure includes a bearing cup and a vibration absorbing element. The bearing cup includes a first section, a second section and a bearing holding hole. The first and the second section are connected end-to-end to enclose a receiving space therein, which communicates with the bearing holding hole. The vibration absorbing element is fitted between the first and the second section. With the fan vibration absorbing structure included in a fan, it is able to largely reduce the vibration occurred during fan operation.

An oil return structure for fan includes a base, a bearing, a retaining ring and a rotor. The base has a bearing cup internally defining a receiving space for receiving the bearing therein. The bearing has a centered and axially extended shaft hole. The retaining ring is located at a front end of the bearing and has a central hole. The rotor includes a hub and a shaft. The shaft is extended through the central hole of the retaining ring into the shaft hole of the bearing, and is provided with an annular groove corresponding to the retaining ring. Oil in the bearing flowing to the annular groove during fan operation is centrifugally pulled out of the shaft and then caught by the retaining ring, from where the oil returns to the bearing. Therefore, loss of oil from the bearing is largely reduced to ensure extended fan service life.

A base structure for cooling fan includes a seat, a circuit board and a motor assembly. The seat has an inner side served as a supporting surface. The circuit board has a first side attached to a top of the supporting surface and an opposite second side having a plurality of electronic elements provided thereon. The motor assembly includes a plurality of stacked silicon steel plates located on the circuit board and above the electronic elements. With the first side of the circuit board being attached to the supporting surface of the seat and the electronic elements on the second side of the circuit board being located in spaces between the motor assembly and the circuit board, more silicon steel plates can be stacked in the motor assembly to enable upgraded motor working efficiency and reduced electric current needed by the cooling fan to operate.

A laser-welded joint structure between insulation frame and bearing cup of fan includes a base having a bearing cup and a stator having at least one insulation frame. The insulation frame includes a sleeve portion defining a bore axially extending therethrough. The sleeve portion is provided on an inner wall surface with at least one pressing section that radially projects into the bore to press a lower side against an upper end of the bearing cup and a bearing received therein. A portion of at least one lateral side of each pressing section that is in contact with the upper end of the bearing cup is melted by laser beam to form a laser-welded joint, so that the insulation frame and the bearing cup are integrally connected together at reduced manufacturing cost and have increased structural strength. A method of forming the laser-welded joint structure is also disclosed.
