ABSTRACT:
A ceiling fan (10) is provided having a motor (12), a motor housing (13), fan blades (14), and blade irons (16) coupled to the motor and blades. Each blade iron includes a mounting arm (18), a mounting plate (19) and a decorative medallion (20). The mounting arm has a blade attachment portion (23) which has a decorative end (24) with mounting holes (25) therein. The blade iron mounting plate has a middle portion (31) straddled by a first end portion (32) and a second end portion (33). The middle portion and blade each have mounting holes (34) and (36), respectively, therein configured to conform with the mounting holes of the decorative end. The decorative medallion includes a cover plate (37) having a cavity (38) therein partially defined by an interior end wall (40) configured to mate with the first end portion (32) of the mounting plate. The medallion also includes two springs (43) configured to bias the cover plate away from the mounting plate and a set screw (45) mounted within a set screw mounting hole (46). The set screw is threadably movable between an unlocked position separated from the second end portion of the mounting plate and a locked position contacting and biasing against the second end portion.
