Abstract
A housing for a ceiling fan includes a cylindrical member and a bottom plate. A cap is engaged on the cylindrical member. A frame includes a ring element and a number of extensions radially extended outward from the ring element for engaging with the bottom plate. A number of bolts couple the bottom plate, the cap and the frame together. Panels having two flanges engaged with the cap and extensions are secured by the bolts to the outside of the cylindrical member. The extensions and the panels can be easily formed with different patterns for decoration purposes and can be easily replaced with extensions and panels of different patterns.
