ABSTRACT:
An air blower including a flow-thru motor and fan unit encapsulated in resilient foam rubber layer within a substantially cylindrical plastic casing is provided which operates very quietly, delivers a sufficient quantity of warm pressurized air and filters the air which flows therethrough. The air blower is eloquently simple in design and relatively inexpensive to manufacture. The air blower incorporates a number of safety features including an outlet structure which prevents the introduction of water into the interior of the blower and a ground fault circuit interrupter. The air which flows through the blower is channeled through the motor to cool the motor and at the same time heat the air flowing through the blower. The resilient foam encapsulation separates the noise and vibration of the motor and fan unit from the casing. The casing includes a plurality of radial air inlets in its base and an air outlet in the side of the casing adjacent its upper end. Consequently, the foam encapsulation above and below the motor and fan unit serve to filter the air passing from the air inlets to the air outlet and reduce the noise which emanates from the outlet and inlets.
