ABSTRACT:
A molded impeller fan assembly has a backing plate and a plurality of blades extending generally orthogonally upwardly therefrom. A V-shaped buttress is formed at the transition of each blade to the backing plate. Each buttress is defined by a pair of opposed walls which are formed where the backing plate curves gradually upward toward the blade apex. A V-shaped indentation is disposed between the walls in a side of the backing plate opposite the blades. The walls of the buttress serve to transfer centrifugal and impact forces from the blades to the backing plate.
