Abstract
A cooling fan assembly for replacing a vehicle's radiator cooling fan so the vehicle's radiator is cooled more efficiently includes a hub that may be coupled to the vehicle's water pump. A plurality of blades is coupled to and radiates outwardly from the hub. Each of the plurality of blades has a twisted shape. The plurality of blades urges air at a high velocity through the vehicle's radiator when the hub is rotated by the vehicle's water pump. The assembly improves an efficiency of the vehicle's radiator.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedI claim:
1 . A cooling fan assembly configured to replace a vehicle's radiator cooling fan wherein the vehicle's radiator is cooled more efficiently, said assembly comprising:
a hub configured to be coupled to the vehicle's water pump; and a plurality of blades coupled to and radiating outwardly from said hub, each of said plurality of blades having a twisted shape such that said plurality of blades urges air at a high velocity through the vehicle's radiator when said hub is rotated by the vehicle's water pump wherein said assembly improves an efficiency of the vehicle's radiator.
2 . The assembly according to claim 1 , further comprising said hub having an outer wall extending forwardly from a back wall of said hub.
3 . The assembly according to claim 2 , further comprising said back wall of said hub being coupled to the vehicle's water pump wherein the vehicle's water pump rotates said hub.
4 . The assembly according to claim 1 , further comprising said plurality of blades each having a coupled end and a free end.
5 . The assembly according to claim 4 , wherein each of said plurality of blades being twisted along a longitudinal axis extending through said coupled and free ends of each of said plurality of blades.
6 . The assembly according to claim 5 , further comprising each of said plurality of blades having a front edge and a back edge.
7 . The assembly according to claim 6 , wherein said free end of each of said plurality of blades being curved between said front and back edges of said plurality of blades wherein said plurality of blades is configured to collect and urge the air at the high velocity when said hub is rotated.
8 . The assembly according to claim 7 , further comprising said coupled end of said plurality of blades each being coupled to an outer wall of said hub.
9 . The assembly according to claim 8 , further comprising said plurality of blades being evenly spaced apart and distributed around and entire circumference of said outer wall of said hub.
10 . A cooling fan assembly configured to replace a vehicle's radiator cooling fan wherein the vehicle's radiator is cooled more efficiently, said assembly comprising:
a hub having an outer wall extending forwardly from a back wall of said hub, said back wall of said hub being coupled to the vehicle's water pump wherein the vehicle's water pump rotates said hub; a plurality of blades each having a coupled end, a free end, a front edge and a back edge, said coupled end of said plurality of blades each being coupled to said outer wall of said hub, said plurality of blades being evenly spaced apart and distributed around and entire circumference of said outer wall of said hub; and each of said plurality of blades being twisted along a longitudinal axis extending through said coupled and free ends of each of said plurality of blades, said free end of each of said plurality of blades being curved between said front and back edges of said plurality of blades wherein said plurality of blades is configured to collect and urge air at a high velocity when said hub is rotated, said plurality of blades urging the air at the high velocity through the vehicle's radiator wherein said assembly improves an efficiency of the vehicle's radiator.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
