Fan assembly and refrigerator including a fan assembly
Abstract:
A fan assembly and a refrigerator including a fan assembly may prevent a backward flow of air via a spoke configured to be in parallel with a direction of a fan outlet flow. The fan assembly may include a fan including a hub and blades, a motor to rotate the hub, an outer housing or housing that accommodates the fan, a support frame or frame including an annular body or frame body provided in and coupled to the housing, a bracket centrally positioned in the frame body that fixes the motor, spokes extending between and coupled to the frame body and the bracket, and anti-vibration members arranged along and fixed to the frame body. The anti-vibration members connect the frame body to the housing. A protrusion protrudes outward from and along an outer circumferential face of the frame body to prevent a backflow of air from the fan.
