A method of manufacturing a centrifugal fan is provided that includes cutting a metal sheet to form a positive pressure surface forming member and a negative pressure surface forming member, respectively, forming a positive pressure surface and a negative pressure surface; pressing the positive pressure surface forming member and the negative pressure surface forming member to form a first curved surface forming the positive pressure surface and a second curved surface forming the negative pressure surface; trimming the positive pressure surface forming member provided with the fast curved surface and the negative pressure surface forming member provided with the second curved surface to form a shroud bonding surface and a main plate bonding surface; bending the shroud bonding surface and the main plate bonding surface; bonding the positive pressure surface forming member and the negative pressure surface forming member to each other; and bonding the shroud bonding surface and a shroud to each other and bonding the main plate bonding surface and a main plate to each other in a bonded state of the positive pressure surface forming member and the negative pressure surface forming member.

Method of manufacturing centrifugal fan

A centrifugal fan is provided that includes a main plate configured to be rotated about a rotational axis, a shroud, having a suction opening, and a plurality of blades arranged in a circumferential direction between the main plate and the shroud to allow air suctioned in through the suction opening to flow from a front edge to a rear edge of each blade. Assuming a first cross section, a second cross section, a third cross section, and a fourth cross section of each blade sequentially taken at layers from the shroud to the main plate, a front edge of the first cross section is located farther from the rotational axis than a front edge of the fourth cross section, and a rear edge of the first cross section is located closer to the rotational axis than a rear edge of the fourth cross section.
