ABSTRACT:
A fan assembly has a circular disc with a rotational axis and first and second sides. A cylindrical side wall extends around the periphery of the disc. The side wall has axially spaced first and second rims and is circumferentially subdivided into a plurality of wall segments, each wall segment has inner and outer surfaces, with the second rim of the wall protruding axially beyond the second side of the disc. Fan blades are carried on the outer surfaces of the side wall segments. Mounting members protrude from the first side of the disc at locations spaced circumferentially around the periphery thereof. Connecting members on the inner surfaces of the wall segments coact in separable interlocked engagement with the mounting members to fasten the wall segments to the disc. A first ring on the first side of the disc prevents the connecting members from separating from their interlocked engagement with the mounting members. A second ring on the second side of the disc interconnects the wall segments.
