In order to effectively dissipate the excess heat, a conventional method is to attach a heat absorbing block to the surface of the heat-generating electronic component, and provide a heat pipe and a heat-dissipating fin set. The fin group connection ' then a centrifugal fan is disposed in the vicinity of the heat sink fin group, and the heat sink fins are forcibly dissipated by the cooling airflow generated by the centrifugal fan to dissipate heat generated by the heat generating electronic components. A conventional centrifugal fan usually includes a frame and an impeller disposed in the frame. The bottom of the frame is provided with an air inlet, and a bracket for supporting the rotation of the impeller is disposed in the air inlet. Conventional centrifugal fans usually have a corresponding correspondence between the bracket and the fan frame: a threaded hole through which the screw is fixedly connected to the frame by the screw. When the fan I is used, the impeller on the bracket rotates at a high speed. The bracket is swayed relative to the frame, and the thickness of the fan frame is thin. The continuous swaying capacity (4) causes the thread on the fan frame to be broken by the thread inside the screw frame. The frame is not fixed and the bracket is not stable. Support the smooth rotation of the impeller on the fan. 201111642 SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above, it is necessary to provide a centrifugal fan that can stably fix a bracket on a fan frame to smoothly support the rotation of the impeller. A centrifugal fan includes a frame and an impeller disposed in the frame. The frame includes a bottom plate. The bottom plate is provided with an air inlet. The air inlet is provided with a bracket, and the impeller is mounted on the bracket. The bottom surface of the bottom plate extends downwardly and protrudes around the air inlet

The size of the step portion 181 is equivalent to the size of the step 163. When the bracket 18 is assembled in the air inlet 164 of the base 16, the step portion 181 just abuts against the step 163 of the base 16, and the bottom surface of the bracket 18 and the bottom surface of the bottom plate 160 of the base 16 are at 201111642. On the same plane. The outer periphery of the step portion 181 extends outward to form three lugs 185 respectively corresponding to the studs 167 of the base 16. Each of the lugs 185 is substantially semi-circular, and a center of each of the lugs 185 is correspondingly provided with a through hole 183. The diameter of the through hole 183 is equal to the outer diameter of the stud 167 to be offset by the step ι81.
