Abstract
A blower includes a fan that causes momentum to air by rotation, a shaft that defines a rotation axis of the fan, a bearing that supports the shaft outside of the fan, and a weight that is movable in a direction of rotation of the fan. In the fan, the weight is located opposite to the bearing with respect to an end of the fan adjacent to the bearing, and thus an increase in weight by the weight can be reduced.
