Turbofan and mold thereof
First Claim
1. A turbofan comprising:
- a hub coupled with a rotational shaft of a driving device;
a plurality of blades installed at a circumference of the hub radially; and
a shroud at an opposite side to the hub so as to be coupled with a plurality of the blades wherein the blades are placed between the shroud and the hub, and wherein the hub, blades, and shroud are formed in one body and wherein the shroud comprises a first extension protruding to extend from a coupling part with a leading edge at the uppermost portion of each of the blades in an inward radial direction of the rotational shaft and a second extension extending straightly from the first extension in a direction of the rotational axis toward a side opposite to the hub.

10. A mold for fabricating a turbofan comprising:
- a hub coupled with a rotational shaft of a driving device;
a plurality of blades installed at a circumference of the hub radially; and
a shroud at an opposite side to the hub so as to be coupled with a plurality of the blades wherein the blades are placed between the shroud and the hub, andwherein the hub, blades, and shroud are formed in one body and wherein the shroud comprises a first extension protruding to extend from a coupling part with a leading edge at the uppermost portion of each of the blades in an inward radial direction of the rotational shaft and a second extension extending straightly from the first extension in a direction of the rotational axis toward a side opposite to the hub, assuming that a surface where the blades are formed is an upper surface by taking the hub as a reference, the mold for fabricating the turbofan, comprising;
a lower mold pattern comprising;
a hub molding part for molding a lower surface of the hub;
a blade molding part protruding upward from a circumferential end of the hub molding part in a direction of the rotational shaft so as to mold a portion of each of the blades; and
a shroud molding part for molding a lower surface of the shroud having the first extension at an upper area of the blade molding part; and
an upper molding pattern comprising;
a hub molding part detachable from the upper mold pattern for molding an upper surface of the hub;
a blade molding part having a boundary surface forming a boundary with an inner side of the blade molding part of the upper mold pattern for molding a remaining portion of each of the blades; and
a shroud molding part for molding an upper surface of the shroud having the second extension.
- a hub coupled with a rotational shaft of a driving device;
