ABSTRACT:
A ceiling fan suspended from a mounting rod and comprising a transverse support. A pair of hanging fans are distally mounted on the transverse support. A motor fixed to the mounting rod and spaced radially therefrom drives a gyro gear about an axis parallel to and spaced from the mounting rod. The gyro gear drives a central hub gear about an axis aligned with the mounting rod. The center gear is fixed to the rotatable hub coupled to the transverse support. The fan may be stopped at any point in its rotation and be pointed to direct air flow at a selection location. And the fan may be controlled by a remote control to allow a user to conveniently point the fan at any selected location.
