Abstract

A single-piece plastic fan wheel for a radial fan comprises a hub, a blade ring having fan blades and an intermediate piece interconnecting the hub and the blade ring. The hub comprises an inner hub ring attachable to the drive shaft of a motor and an outer hub ring connected to the inner hub ring by a plurality of axially and radially extending resilient strips which serve to damp tangential vibrations emanating from the motor owing to pulsations in the torque output thereof.
