TRANSMISSION DEVICE OF FAN
First Claim
1. A transmission device of a fan, the fan comprising a motor for swinging the fan back and forth and a connecting rod for swinging the fan back and forth, the motor being connected with a spindle through at least one gear, the spindle being fixedly connected to a central axis of the transmission device, the connecting rod being connected to an eccentric position of the transmission device, enabling the fan to be swung back and forth in a swing direction by the motor, the transmission device comprising:
- a first casing, having a first annular surface corresponding to an axial direction of the spindle, the first annular surface of the first casing being provided with a plurality of spaced and raised press portions and an engaging recess formed between every adjacent two of the press portions;
a second casing, pivotally connected to the first casing, the second casing having a second annular surface corresponding to the first annular surface of the first casing, the second annular surface being formed with at least one accommodation hole corresponding to the engaging recess;
at least one elastic member, disposed in the accommodation hole of the second casing; and
at least one press member, disposed in the accommodation hole of the second casing;
wherein when the fan is swung back and forth, the press member is biased by the elastic member so that one end of the press member is exposed out of the accommodation hole to engage with the engaging recess of the first casing, wherein the press member can be disengaged from the engaging recess of the first casing by an applied force from the adjacent two press portions, the applied force is at least equal to a force exerted by a user to change the angle of the fan in the swing direction.

Abstract
A transmission device of a fan is provided. A central axis and an eccentric position of the transmission device are connected with a spindle and a connecting rod, respectively. The spindle is connected with a motor through gears. A first casing and a second casing of the transmission device are pivotally connected to each other. An accommodation hole of the second casing is provided with an elastic member and a press member to engage with an engaging recess of the first casing, such that the fan can be swung. When the user applies a force to change the angle of the fan, the press member is pressed by two press portions of the first casing to disengage from the engaging recess, such that the second casing can be turned relative to the first casing to prevent gear slipping or gear jumping of the motor, the gears, and the spindle.
