The Parts of a Fan-Fan Guard
Don't wait until your fan breaks to learn how it works. The more you know about your fan, the easier it is to fix a problem as soon as it arises. Fans can look like simple mechanisms, but there's more to them than meets the eye. In addition to the obvious parts of a fan, there are bits and pieces tucked away that can cause problems or need regular cleaning and repair. Knowing the parts of a fan can help you take the first step to doing these things yourself.
Fan guards protect both the fan and the user from damage. Not all fans have a guard. Those with a high probability of coming into contact with outside elements -- including but not limited to vegetable matter, additional mechanical elements or the user's skin -- will have a guard. Ceiling fans typically do not have a guard due to the low chance of encountering a person or object. Computer fans may or may not have a guard to keep the blades from interfering with other pieces in the casing. Automotive fans may or may not have a guard, depending on the make and model of the car and the function and location of the fan.
