Development history of tower fan
According to domestic official records, 1986, an industrial company in Guangdong Province developed a vertical fan (trade name "building fan" and "entertainment fan", now commonly known as "tower fan"), which used radial wind wheel to supply air, and synchronous motor drove the fan to twist left and right to change the direction of air supply. This kind of fan is novel in appearance and soft in wind power, but it is small in air volume and consumes a lot of electricity (the use value is about 0.5 cubic meter/watt-minute, which is only 1/2 of the desktop fan), so it is suitable for personal use in the office. In the same year, Hong Kong technology and computer components were adopted to produce an electronic program-controlled vertical fan, and the electronic program controller was used to realize the functions of simulating natural wind, running at various start-stop intervals, and stopping at regular intervals.

During 65438-0986-2003, tower fans were rarely sold in China because of their high cost, and were mainly used for export to Japan, Germany, France and other western developed countries.

In 2004, domestic enterprises introduced 360-degree air supply tower fans;

In 2005, an enterprise in Foshan developed an internal swing tower fan, which made the fan body motionless and the internal components rotated to form left and right swing air supply, but the air supply angle was small. However, this improvement improves the swing structure of the traditional tower fan, so that the swing parts do not need to support the bearing fan to swing, reducing the friction effect and greatly improving the safety index of the tower fan.

In 2008, domestic enterprises carried out a brand-new design on the swing principle of tower fan, and introduced the rotating mesh tower fan for the first time. Through the rotation of the grid, the fan body is stationary, and the air supply angle is doubled, reaching a large angle of 1 10. Lighter swing support structure, no moving wire in the fan body, further improving the safety performance;

In 2009, the "Tilting and Rotating Net Fan" came out and won the "2009 China IF Design Award".
