Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve blowing efficiency and reduce noises by providing an opening at the center in front of a hub and openings in the peripheral portion thereof to suck a turbulent swirl generated in front of the hub from the central opening and discharge it from the openings in the peripheral portion. SOLUTION: A plurality of blades 103 are fixed to the outer periphery of a hub 2 and are fixed to the shaft 105 of an electric motor 140. The hub 2 is shaped like a cylinder with flat closed ends and has a circular front opening 3 at the center of the upstream of air flow and many circular openings 4 at equal intervals in the circumferential direction of the outer periphery. When an electric motor 104 is driven to rotate an axial flow fan 1, air flow is produced in parallel to the axial direction of a rotating shaft 10 to produce a pressure difference between the inside and the outside of the hub 2, whereby the air in the hub 2 flows out from the openings 4 made in the outer periphery thereof. Therefore, the air in front of the hub 2 flows into the hub 2 from the front opening 3 to eliminate a turbulent swirl generated in front of the hub 2.
