Table Fan Device

Abstract

The present invention relates generally to the field of cooling devices. More specifically, the present invention relates to a table fan device comprised of at least one fan that is further comprised of at least one fan blade, a housing, at least one button, and at least one motor. The device may, in differing embodiments, attach itself to the underside of a table via the use of fasteners and support arms. The device is powered by a motor that rotates the fan blades around a vertical shaft to create airflow. In this manner, the device efficiently expels airflow to create an ideal climate for its users. Accordingly, the present disclosure makes specific reference thereto. Nonetheless, it is to be appreciated that aspects of the present invention are also equally applicable to other like applications, devices and methods of manufacture.

         6 . The table fan combination device of  claim 5 , wherein the button allows the direction of an airflow generated by the fan to be changed such that the airflow may be selectively discharged from the top surface of the housing, the bottom surface of the housing or both the top surface of the housing and the bottom surface of the housing. 
     
     
         7 . The table fan combination device of  claim 5 , wherein the button can be used to selectively cause the at least one fan blade to rotate in a clockwise direction or a counterclockwise direction. 
     
     
         8 . The table fan combination device of  claim 5 , wherein the motor comprises a plurality of speeds. 
     
     
         9 . The table fan combination device of  claim 5 , wherein the power source is a battery. 
     
     
         10 . The table fan combination device of  claim 9  further comprising a solar panel for charging the battery. 
     
     
         11 . The table fan combination device of  claim 10 , wherein the power source is an electrical cord. 
     
     
         12 . A table and fan combination device comprising:
 a fan comprised of a plurality of fan blades;   a housing comprised of a first grate located on a top surface of the housing, a second grate located on a bottom surface of the housing and an interior, wherein the fan is positioned in the interior of the housing;   a button;   a motor that powers the fan;   a battery;   a solar panel;   a power cord;   a table comprised of a top surface, a bottom surface, at least one leg and a support arm; and   a fastener.   
     
     
         13 . The table and fan combination device of  claim 12 , wherein the fan is attached to the bottom surface of the table via the support arm. 
     
     
         14 . The table and fan combination device of  claim 13 , wherein the support arm is in a vertical orientation relative to a ground surface. 
     
     
         15 . The table and fan combination device of  claim 13 , wherein the support arm is in a horizontal orientation relative to a ground surface. 
     
     
         16 . The table and fan combination device of  claim 12 , wherein the housing is attached to the bottom surface of the table via the support arm using the fastener. 
     
     
         17 . The table and fan combination device of  claim 16 , wherein the fastener is at least one of a nut, a bolt, a screw, a nail, a magnet and a tongue and groove fastener. 
     
     
         18 . The table and fan combination device of  claim 12 , wherein the top surface of the table is transparent. 
     
     
         19 . The table and fan combination device of  claim 18 , wherein the solar panel is located on the top surface of the housing. 
     
     
         20 . The table and fan combination device of  claim 12 , wherein the button allows a user to control a direction of an airflow generated by the fan to be changed.
