Abstract

An illuminating ventilator includes a case, a lamp and a power supply module. A first air opening and a second air opening are respectively formed on two sides of the case. The case includes an air channel having two ends respectively communicating with the first air opening and the second air opening. The fan is disposed in the case and is arranged in the air channel. The lamp is detachably attached to the case. The power supply module includes an AC input terminal, a first DC output terminal and a second DC output terminal. The first DC output terminal is electrically connected with the fan, and the second DC output terminal is electrically connected with the lamp. As such, the illuminating ventilator is provided with improved installation convenience, reduced production cost and reduced difficulty of maintaining and repairing.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An illuminating ventilator comprising:
a case with a first air opening and a second air opening respectively formed on two sides thereof, wherein the case comprises an air channel having two ends respectively communicating with the first air opening and the second air opening;
a fan disposed in the case, wherein the fan is arranged in the air channel;
a lamp detachably attached to the case; and
a power supply module comprising an AC input terminal, a first DC output terminal and a second DC output terminal, wherein the first DC output terminal is electrically connected with the fan, wherein the second DC output terminal is electrically connected with the lamp, wherein the fan has an axial direction, wherein the power supply module is arranged between the case and the lamp in the axial direction, and wherein the power supply module is detachably attached to the case or the lamp.

2. The illuminating ventilator as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first DC output terminal is a constant voltage output.

3. The illuminating ventilator as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the lamp is a light-emitting diode lamp.

4. The illuminating ventilator as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the second DC output terminal is a constant current output.

5. The illuminating ventilator as claimed in claim 1 , wherein, the lamp comprises a seat at a side facing the case, and wherein the power supply module is detachably attached to the seat.

6. The illuminating ventilator as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the fan comprises a base having a surface facing the lamp, and wherein the power supply module is detachably attached to the surface of the base.

7. The illuminating ventilator as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the second air opening is arranged at a side of the case, wherein said side of the case faces the lamp in the axial direction, and wherein the power supply module is arranged between the second air opening and the lamp.

8. The illuminating ventilator as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the fan has a radial direction perpendicular to the axial direction, and wherein the power supply module is arranged at a lateral side of the fan in the radial direction.

9. The illuminating ventilator as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the illuminating ventilator is adapted to be settled in an installation hole of a divider, wherein the installation hole communicates two opposite surfaces of the divider, wherein the case comprises a penetrated hole communicating an inner surface and an outer surface of the case, and wherein the power supply module is arranged out of the case.

10. The illuminating ventilator as claimed in claim 8 , further comprising a socket extending in the axial direction, wherein the socket is arranged at the case, wherein the power supply module is detachably received in the socket, wherein the power supply module is arranged at the lateral side of the fan in the radial direction.

11. The illuminating ventilator as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the second air opening is arranged at a side of the case, wherein said side of the case faces the lamp in the axial direction, wherein the case forms an expansion portion around an outer periphery of the second air opening, wherein an inner diameter of the second air opening is larger than an outer diameter of the fan, and wherein the socket is arranged at the expansion portion.

12. The illuminating ventilator as claimed in claim 11 , wherein the socket aligns with the fan in the radial direction.

13. An illuminating ventilator comprising:
a case with a first air opening and a second air opening respectively formed on two sides thereof, wherein the case comprises an air channel having two ends respectively communicating with the first air opening and the second air opening;
a fan disposed in the case and having an axial direction and a radial direction perpendicular to the axial direction, wherein the fan is arranged in the air channel;
a lamp detachably attached to the case;
a power supply module comprising an AC input terminal, a first DC output terminal and a second DC output terminal, wherein the first DC output terminal is electrically connected with the fan, wherein the second DC output terminal is electrically connected with the lamp, and wherein the power supply module is arranged at a lateral side of the fan in the radial direction; and
a socket extending in the axial direction, wherein the socket is arranged at the case, wherein the power supply module is detachably received in the socket, wherein the power supply module is arranged at the lateral side of the fan in the radial direction, wherein the second air opening is arranged at a side of the case, wherein said side of the case faces the lamp in the axial direction, wherein the case forms an expansion portion around an outer periphery of the second air opening, wherein an inner diameter of the second air opening is larger than an outer diameter of the fan, wherein the socket is arranged at the expansion portion, wherein the socket comprises a through hole and a lid, wherein the through hole is arranged at the expansion portion and faces the lamp in the axial direction, wherein the power supply module is inserted into the socket via the through hole, and wherein the lid covers the through hole.

14. The illuminating ventilator as claimed in claim 13 , wherein the first DC output terminal is a constant voltage output.

15. The illuminating ventilator as claimed in claim 13 , wherein the lamp is a light-emitting diode lamp.

16. The illuminating ventilator as claimed in claim 13 , wherein the second DC output terminal is a constant current output.

17. The illuminating ventilator as claimed in claim 13 , wherein the power supply module is arranged between the case and the lamp in the axial direction, and wherein the power supply module is detachably attached to the case or the lamp.

18. The illuminating ventilator as claimed in claim 13 , wherein the socket aligns with the fan in the radial direction.

19. The illuminating ventilator as claimed in claim 13 , wherein the illuminating ventilator is adapted to be settled in an installation hole of a divider, wherein the installation hole communicates two opposite surfaces of the divider, wherein the case comprises a penetrated hole communicating an inner surface and an outer surface of the case, and wherein the power supply module is arranged out of the case.
