Abstract
A support assembly for a fan includes a hanging member, an elongate support member, a resilient interface member, and a fastener member. The hanging member has a support surface and an inner circumferential surface defining a central passage. The elongate support member includes a first end portion and a second end portion, the first end portion extending into the central passage and defining a first fastener aperture and a second fastener aperture. The resilient interface member is interposed between the elongate support member and the central passage, includes a first plurality of outwardly extending ribs configured to engage the inner circumferential surface in the central passage, and defines a third fastener aperture substantially aligned with the first fastener aperture and a fourth fastener aperture substantially aligned with the second fastener aperture. The fastener member extends through the fastener apertures and is supported by the support surface.
