Abstract
A fan module used on an electronic device, the electronic device includes a main board and a connector. The fan module includes a tray, a fan mounted on the tray, a supporting frame mounted on the fan, and a printed circuit board mounted on the fan by the supporting frame, the printed circuit board includes a main body and a conducting strip. The main board is perpendicular to the printed circuit board, and the connector is electrically connected to the conducting strip. The assembly of the printed circuit board and the main board is perpendicular to each other, and the supporting frame is compact to have the printed circuit board mounted on the fan, which is greatly reducing the size of the fan module in a depth direction with space saved and low cost.
